The Return of the Disaster-Class Hero

Chapter 87 - First Disciple (1)

Lee Gun's eyes turned round from surprise.

[You have received the Reputation reward for clearing the Trial of Reputation.]

[You have acquired the Missionary Reward.]

It seemed his plan to clear the Trial of Reputation had gone exactly as he planned. To clear the trial, he had to acquire one disciple. That was why he had given that coin to Sungjae. He had chosen one of the two ways to take in a disciple.

[You can choose between <Missionary(Regular)> & <Missionary(Special)>.]

[When you created the Mission Coin, you chose <Missionary(Special)>.]

[Target(Chun Sungjae) was given a mission.]

[Target(Chun Sungjae) must fulfill the mission to awaken as the Serpent Bearer's disciple.]

If Lee Gun had chosen <Missionary(Regular)>, he just needed the other person's consent to turn them into his disciple.

The probability of this option's success was 100%, but it didn't result in many special abilities.

On the other hand, the <Missionary(Special)> option also needed consent, but it had a requirement as well. Failure was a probability here; moreover, that probability was quite high.

[The probability of failure is 70%]

That wasn't all. The Missionary couldn't be used twice on the same subject. Basically, if someone failed the Missionary task, Lee Gun couldn't attempt to bring that person in as a disciple again.

[If Missionary(Special) succeeds, you will acquire a special reward.]

[Reward(Lee Gun): Missionary Reward (S rank).]

[Reward(Disciple): Special awakening, exclusive data, increase in disciple rank.]

The difference in rewards was like that between night and day. The special awakening was the most important one.

[Special awakening makes the disciple much stronger.]

[It's a special benefit that can be used during the missionary task.]

In other words, Lee Gun could upgrade the disciple from head to toe. It was basically like a re-awakening, a high-risk, high-return option.

'If I were a conservative person, I would've gone for the Regular Missionary...'

Lee Gun had felt something when he had looked at Sungjae. Sungjae was considered remarkable, but Lee Gun thought there was more to him.

'If things turn out right, he could reach Saint rank.' His limit wasn't just the rank. There was a lot of room for his basic attributes to grow.

Lee Gun didn't want to trim the sprouts. Of course, it wasn't easy to find someone with 100% faith either. Moreover, he needed to clear the mission of bringing in a disciple if he wanted to use his <Death Instinct>.

So, he had taken an incredible gamble with that move. However, he trusted Sungjae. The young man was his friend's son.

As if to prove this, Chun Sungjae had beaten the odds and became Lee Gun's disciple.
