Mana Stone Rush: The Heir's Wild Posts
Isn't Woo Jin-seong Awakener Level Textbook Material?]]
He's super freaking strong..
Cleared up to the 10th floor first, and now he's about to clear the 15th,
Not official, but he's National Authority Class, so shouldn't he end up in textbooks??
Last time tried the spit thing but just ate dirt... went to hospital for stomach scan..ㅜ
I wanna awaken National Authority Class powers like Woo Jin-seong Awakener and save people and get likes too
Why can't I awaken;;;
Wished to awaken on the meteor shower and it actually happened??? What is this???
Seems like there might be side effects but checked ability and this could aim for National Authority Class level
Tried something and??
Says I can activate resources and stuff???
So I hit activate lololol
Then glowing stones everywhere in the tower
You guys hurry too, mine it, money's coming out!!
A collection of posts by the self-proclaimed 'WooJinSeongsHeir' after a long time brought an involuntary smile to his face.
Snicker.
At that moment, a small chuckle rippled through the silent conference room at the Awakener Association Korean Branch.
The man peering at his phone noticed the sudden hush and turned it off, lifting his head.
Then the suit-clad man explaining something up front spoke.
"Uh..., Woo Jin-seong Hunter? Did I say something funny by chance?"
It might seem overly sensitive, but Woo Jin-seong rarely smiled, making it a perfectly reasonable question.
Woo Jin-seong glanced around the room at the other Awakeners before replying.
"No. Just remembered something amusing."
"Pardon? Something amusing...?"
All eyes in the room fixed on Woo Jin-seong. He shook his head as if to say no more questions.
"Ah, yes. Then I'll continue with the current status on this incident."
The suited man glanced at Woo Jin-seong cautiously before resuming with the presentation slides.
"The initial portal appearances in urban areas—what we're tentatively calling Dungeon Breaks—have been decreasing steadily since the first day."
Woo Jin-seong eyed the screen in front of him.
It showed dozens of incidents on day one across Seoul, Gyeonggi, Chungcheong, Gyeongsang, Gangwon, and more.
But they dwindled, now barely one per day in specific spots like Seoul or Gyeonggi.
"Speculation suggests Dungeon Breaks weaken over time or that monster numbers are fixed, but...."
"We still don't know the details." With that, the suited man advanced to the next slide.
"The most crucial issue now is the cause of these Dungeon Breaks."
Why were Dungeon Breaks happening? Nothing was confirmed yet.
That's why the government was pushing hard to research it. Understanding the cause meant they could respond—or even prevent it.
"Some speculate it's tied to the bizarre changes in the Tutorial Tower's Hall of Fame rankings, and the fact that Floor 1 had no owner until now...."
At those words, Woo Jin-seong glanced at his phone and muttered involuntarily.
"Eun-ha."
"Pardon?"
Suddenly, every Awakener in the room turned to stare at Woo Jin-seong.
He never focused or spoke up in meetings. As the world's strongest Awakener, with the Korean Association and government already tiptoeing around him, his usual uncooperativeness had been awkward.
Today, though, he showed an unfamiliar side, shocking everyone.
Woo Jin-seong ignored their reactions.
"Isn't the Association speculating that this mysterious Awakener Eun-ha is the cause?"
"Ah..., yes. That's the most suspicious based on known facts."
The suited man wiped cold sweat and continued carefully.
"Plus, this unknown Eun-ha appeared out of nowhere, claimed ownership of Floor 1—an unprecedented authority never seen before...."
"And?"
"And their identity remains completely unknown, so not just Korea but associations worldwide have them flagged as a cautionary target."
A cautionary target? Unknown Awakener?
Woo Jin-seong fiddled with the phone in his pocket.
"Uh, Woo Jin-seong Hunter? Do you have any leads on this Eun-ha...?"
At the man's tentative question, Woo Jin-seong closed his eyes briefly, then stood.
Screech.
The chair scraping back made the other Awakeners flinch, all eyes on him. In his usual dry monotone, he replied.
"No idea."
Meanwhile, one more Awakener flinched at the name Eun-ha amid the talk between Woo Jin-seong and the staff....
'Eun-ha. I'll definitely protect you.'
The woman with long green hair—Im Ji-won, active as AwakenThenLeaveGal in the Awakener Gallery—was twitching nonstop.
Though not seated at the head like Woo Jin-seong, as one of Korea's promising Awakeners, she attended meetings almost daily.
'Feels like sitting on pins and needles.'
From her position, every meeting buzzed with Eun-ha talk, making it hard to speak up.
So she stayed silent, listening intently. Better quiet than a slip-up harming Eun-ha.
'That was close today.'
Especially since the famously stoic Woo Jin-seong mentioned Eun-ha, scaring her stiff.
That Woo Jin-seong—if he really wanted to, he could find her.
But luckily, he showed no further interest. Just said he didn't know and headed for the door.
"Hm?"
Just as Woo Jin-seong reached the exit, a suited Association staffer burst in.
Panting, he shouted urgently without catching his breath.
"What happened? Calm down and report properly. Can't you see we're in a meeting?"
"Th-that's, low-grade Mana Storage Stones have been found en masse across the entire Floor 1!"
The room erupted at the staffer's report.
Low-grade Mana Storage Stones were cheap compared to Awakener earnings—about 2 million won for good ones, 1 million for poor.
The issue? They spawned on Floor 1.
What was Floor 1? Safe enough for fresh Awakeners straight out of clearing the Tutorial Tower.
Lately, all monsters vanished—thanks to that Eun-ha?—making it even safer.
Mass low-grades there? Billions in stones littering the floor.
"What's the entrance control status?"
"Ah, yes. It's under proper control. No entry without Association permit...."
"Good it's contained. Assemble a team to investigate Floor 1 immediately. Tower anomalies could lead to anything."
Association staff and Awakeners went wild, clamoring to head to the Tower, eyes gleaming.
In the chaos, a faint curve touched Woo Jin-seong's lips at the door.
'As expected.'
Looking convinced, he addressed the staff.
"No need for an investigation team."
"Pardon...?"
"I'll go myself."
The room fell silent instantly. Woo Jin-seong glanced at the staffer, then strode out without another word.
Most shocked watching him go? Im Ji-won, naturally.
'Oh no. It's definitely about Eun-ha.'
Im Ji-won's face drained white.
Eun-ha might fangirl over meeting her idol Woo Jin-seong, but who knew what he'd do?
Rumors said he'd killed other Awakeners. No way she could let that slide.
'No, absolutely not.'
Unable to sit still, Im Ji-won shot up.
Bang!
"Im Ji-won Awakener? Where are you—"
"S-something came up, gotta go!"
In the now-departed Woo Jin-seong and Im Ji-won's wake, a wary staffer pulled out his phone hesitantly.
"Uh, there's something I haven't mentioned yet...."
"What is it?"
He unlocked it and showed everyone a screenshot.
"This post was written a day before the Mana Storage Stones appeared on Floor 1...."
"What?"
The room buzzed again.
Meanwhile, at Eun-ha's place.
"...Pfft!"
Eun-ha sprawled on her belly, lower tummy slightly poking out, hugging Kkam-dung-i and Jju-jju while scrolling her beat-up phone.
She giggled softly at the post she'd uploaded last night after getting home.
"Hee hee hee. Now everyone's gonna praise me, right?"
