[General POV]

It has been a week since Toneri's debut, and the various discussion about him is dying down. Although slow, people's talks about him are going down

Although, the reason why the talks about him are slow is because of the female fans. All of them are either smitten by Toneri's appearance or just outright supporting him.

There was even a group online named 'Toneri's fan group' consisting of 75k members and almost all of them are females, with a small quarter of males. The average post about Toneri there is about hundreds per day. That alone is enough to show how obsessed these fans are.

But during this time, Toneri had done nothing but grind A-Rank Gates. Although the limit for each A-Rank gate cleared per day is 3, it did not stop him from going to other gates.

Inside the gates, he mostly uses his Shinra Tensei and Banshō Ten'in to kill monsters. And since a hunter is required to have a party of at least 9 members to enter an A-Rank gate, the members that saw him fight could only kill monsters on the sidelines and did not interfere with his massacre.

As for the boss battles, on rare occasions, he would activate the tenseigan chakra mode to kill the boss monster.

Of course, he did not neglect to collect the mana crystals that can be mined inside gates

And so, after 8 days of grinding monster gates, he finally accumulated over 118 million won, which is roughly equivalent to 100k USD.

What did he do after gaining so much money?

Well, first he searched for a new house, obviously. Since he had been staying in the port warehouse since day 1 in this world, it's refreshing to know that he does not need to come back to that place anymore.

Second, he bought new items. For example, he obtained an item called Ring of Tarish which increases his attack speed by at least 20%. This is a pretty good item if he had to admit, but of course, it is expensive too.

Besides that, he also tried experimenting with the Puppet technique.

Toneri tried using it on a monster corpse that he killed, and it succeeded. But, in exchange for a puppet, he needs to focus his attention on it at all times to give it commands.

Moreover, there's also that command lag that takes time before his orders are delivered to the puppet.

This not only made his battles worse, but it also made the team he was with be exposed to danger.

If he wants puppets that do not need his attention and only need one command to do their work, then he just needs something similar to the energy vessel in the Naruto world.

Because the puppets that the original Toneri uses consume energy from the Energy Vessel in the moon, he only needed to order them and they will abide by his orders. No need to control them using chakra threads.

So, Toneri added another item to his to-do list, the number one is to befriend the main character, the second is to become strong as hell to protect himself, and the third is to find a way to create an energy vessel similar to Naruto world.

But, Toneri knows that the Jeju Island raid is coming soon, and he did not neglect his training. He would go to the outskirts of the city and secretly train there. Improving his chakra control and jutsus.

[Toneri's POV]

Coming back from the dungeon I entered to earn money, I went to the agent that handles the dungeon

"That is your 11th A-Rank gate cleared this week, Sir Toneri."

"Mm, transfer the money for clearing the gate to my account."
