Thumbs Up, Level Up

Jicheok Eum—that’s me, just a regular assistant hunter, doing the dirty work of cleaning up monster remains. Day in, day out, I lived a simple life, never expecting anything extraordinary. Then, out of nowhere, my long-deceased grandfather visited me in a dream. From that moment on, everything changed. Strangely, people started giving me likes, as if I had become some kind of online sensation overnight. Before I knew it, I awakened as a full-fledged hunter.

It made me wonder—was this why my grandfather named me Jicheok Eum? Thumbs up, indeed. Maybe he saw this coming all along. Now, instead of just cleaning up after battles, I’m the one fighting them. Life took an unexpected turn, and suddenly, I’m no longer just an assistant. The name fits better than I ever imagined. Who knew a simple thumbs-up could change everything?

Every like I receive fuels my strength, pushing me further than I ever thought possible. My grandfather’s dream wasn’t just a coincidence—it was destiny. Now, I’m leveling up, not just in skill but in purpose. The monsters I once cleaned up after? I’m the one taking them down now. Funny how life works, isn’t it?

Maybe names really do shape our futures. Mine certainly did. From an overlooked assistant to a rising hunter, all because of a thumbs-up. Grandpa, if you’re watching, I hope I’m making you proud. The journey’s just beginning, and I’m ready for whatever comes next.
