Chapter 61
Ever since the Free Market opened, when Open Prayer Meta and Random Boxes were still thriving.
Awakened Ones crafting equipment were still focused on raising their item grades, while in the consumables sector, the Rage Potion was trending.
But then, the Admin unintentionally threw in a new bait.
It was none other than the legendary Admin Medicine, rumored to bring back a full head of hair.
[Title]: Admin Medicine Verified ㅇㅇ
(Roughly a “before” photo of Admin Medicine. JPG)
(Roughly an “after” photo of Admin Medicine. JPG)
Still about half left ㅇㅇ
— Holy shit!!
┗ It actually got thicker!
┗ Was this even possible?
┗ Admin, how did you do this….?
┗ Is Admin really a god?
┗ Is this real?
— Why the hell did this guy even try a drug made by the Admin…?
┗ A Hunter Fanboy with remaining sanity spotted lol
┗ Lmaoo
— Please sell it to me!
┗ Ma!! Just bring it here already!!
┗ If he had any sense, he wouldn’t sell this, right?
┗ For real;;
┗ LMAOO
— Admin is truly a hero frfr
┗ He’s a hero spreading hope to the world ㅇㅇ
┗ A true Red-Haired Hunter
┗ Admin is handsome!!!
┗ And has a great physique!!!
Just as the hair of five Hunter Fanboys who applied the Admin Medicine had grown back, the lower halves of the Hunter Gallery users also… sprang to life.
[Title]: No, seriously, how the fuck is this possible…?
(Roughly an “ㄴOㄱ” photo. JPG)
Hair growing back…? And that thick?
Even before the Gate Incident, this was impossible…?
Even with modern (actually, pre-Gate) medicine, this was impossible…?
┗ Actually pre-Gate LMAOO
┗ Ah It’s technically not wrong lol
┗ “A bygone era”
┗ lololl
— I’m more shocked that Admin actually made this;;
┗ For real, what the hell is this guy;;
┗ Seriously lol
┗ Is he actually a Grand Alchemist? lol
— Does it work for prevention too?
┗ I’m starting to see signs…
┗ It’s not just signs
┗ You’re already screwed, aren’t you?
┗ You son of a bitch
┗ LMAOO
The Hunter Fanboys were swept up in hope that they could escape a certain cosmic horror.
A horror so terrifying that even the noble Hunters who saved the world from countless threats dreaded it.
A fate that all mortals would inevitably face at some point.
Balding.
[Title]: Ma!!! Admin!!! Hurry up and make more!!!!!
(A photo of a very exposed crown. JPG)
Please, make more and save this wretched life of mine….
— I can’t even laugh….
┗ Because this isn’t someone else’s problem;;
┗ You’re not allowed to laugh ㅇㅇ
┗ Laughing will get you killed by these people;;
— (Dandelion seeds blowing in the wind. JPG)
┗ You son of a bitch
┗ You bastard
┗ You will not die a natural death
┗ You are excommunicated from the Hunter Gallery
┗ At this point, I instinctively felt it was too dangerous to joke further.
┗ Survived?
— Go get hit by a car.
┗ There are no cars in this era anymore.
┗ Then at least get hit by a D-rank Porter.
┗ Damn, that’s harsh.
┗ So the Porter really was just a tool lol
┗ LMAOO
— Have an abundant and ‘full’filing Chuseok, mister!
┗ Fall into hell.
┗ Not yet, you bastard.
┗ Is there at least a ‘full’ pair of scissors?
┗ Why the hell are you looking for scissors now? lol
┗ To cut that bastard’s hair, obviously.
┗ Mister, you don’t even have hair to cut. lol
┗ You son of a bitch
┗ LMAOOO
[Title]: These Bastards Were Supposed to Close the Gate, But… lol
They’re out here looking for Admin Medicine LMAOO
Life must be real easy, huh? The world must feel like a utopia now?
(A photo of an empty scalp. JPG)
Make my world a utopia too….
— The world looks empty lol
┗ The lonely strands on the crown must feel isolated lol
┗ Everything has gone extinct;
┗ Isn’t this the true Apocalypse Gallery?
┗ Shit LMAOOO
— Fill my world ‘completely’ too.
┗ Why does that sound kind of erotic?
┗ Ah, fuck! Crossdressing Hunter Fanboy!!!
┗ Read the room, damn it!!!
┗ Actually… I have bald spots too….
┗ The reason I buy wigs… wasn’t for crossdressing…?
┗ You were buying them because of hair loss? Lmaoo
┗ But why the hell are you buying women’s wigs? lol
┗ LMAOOOOO
And so, the hidden Tentacle Gang members started crawling out, unloading their long-held grievances and misguided hopes.
The snowball was growing larger and larger.
But the Admin’s expression, which should have been one of joy, didn’t look all that happy.
He let out a complex, unreadable smile and muttered under his breath.
“This… what the hell is happening?”
Ayla clearly said this potion was supposed to speed up regeneration.
Since I had the Hero’s appearance buff, she wouldn’t have worried about hair loss….
And when I tested the potion’s effects, it really did speed up natural wound healing.
And hair loss isn’t a wound….
Which means, there’s only one answer.
My god-awful craftsmanship and my barely-recalled recipe had somehow created a disastrous combination, and I accidentally stumbled upon an entirely new potion!
But the real problem lay elsewhere.
“…Can I even make this again?”
Of course, I remember the ingredients. But how much of what, and in what order? No clue.
It’s like this.
Everyone has, at least once, thrown together only delicious ingredients and accidentally created a masterpiece of a dish.
But if you try to recreate that taste? Impossible.
And in terms of cooking skills, I’m an absolute amateur. That’s how clueless I am about potion-making.
That’s right. Even a man called a god—Admin—wasn’t free from the curse of the Random Box.
[Title]: Red-Haired Hunter Is All Hype lol
This guy disappears, then reappears acting all high and mighty, just to take down three A-rank monsters.
Meanwhile, Admin is out here reshaping the world lol
— Red-Haired Hunter is nothing more than just a guy with red hair.
┗ Literally a one-trick pony pretending to be important lol
┗ The shortest-lived hype in Hunter Gallery history lol
┗ Admin: “I will reshape the future!”
┗ Damn…
┗ Damn, that’s so badass.
┗ Admin-Jehova is pure swagger lol
— Acting all cool! Huh? Acting all strong!
┗ Actually, the most accepted theory is that after taking down the A-rank monsters, he ran out of mana and couldn’t even land the finishing blow ㅇㅇ
┗ He probably pulled off an epic takedown, then internally went,
┗ Huff… huff… someone else… finish them off….
┗ Just imagining it is fucking hilarious LMAOO
┗ The dude is literally nothing ㅇㅇ
┗ If you’re mad, why don’t you develop a hair-loss cure yourself? lol
┗ Or at least post something on the gallery lol
┗ Not like it matters, Admin can just ban you out of spite hm
┗ For real, what a nobody lol
┗ The gallery is Admin’s domain lol
Now the Hunter Fanboys were debating Admin vs. Red-Haired Hunter.
“Your greatest enemy is yourself.”
Someone must have said that once.
Right now, Admin was winning by a landslide.
“…Should I just say I can’t make it again?”
But there were already verification posts.
The hope of all the Tentacles was in the hands of one man.
It wasn’t right for Admin to betray their expectations!
“…I might be able to make it again.”
If I did it once, I can do it twice.
I mean, we’re talking about a hair-loss cure here.
And so, Admin mixed, mixed, spun, and mixed again.
Five more bottles of an unidentified potion were complete.
Since I couldn’t test the effects on myself, let’s put them on the market again.
“Alright!! Try it out!!”
[Title]: Admin Is All Hype LMAOO
While Admin’s Crap-Min Medicine sprouted exactly eleven hairs,
Red-Haired Hunter was out there taking down three A-rank monsters.
Admin is just a hope-torturing bastard, nothing more, nothing less lol
┗ Literally a one-trick pony pretending to “reshape the world” lol
┗ The shortest-lived hype in Hunter Gallery history lol
┗ Red-Haired Hunter is handsome.
┗ Damn…
┗ Damn, that’s so badass.
┗ Red-Haired Woo is pure swagger lol
— Acting like he changed the world! Huh? Acting like a god!
┗ Actually, the most accepted theory is that the Hunter Fanboys who verified the medicine were just screwing with the Tentacles ㅇㅇ
┗ They were just making fun of Admin for having a full head of hair ㅇㅇ
┗ Honestly, Admin is nothing ㅇㅇ
┗ It’s literally Joat-Min Medicine for real.
┗ Admin, if you’re mad, go take down three A-rank monsters yourself lol
┗ Or, you know, save civilians or something lol
— What’s going on?
┗ Admin put more of the medicine up for sale.
┗ People are saying it sprouted eleven hairs.
┗ So now they’re calling it Crap-Min Medicine ㅇㅇ
┗ Shit lol
…And just like that, Red-Haired Hunter flipped the narrative.
[Title]: But Here’s What I Don’t Get About People Trashing Admin
(A confused frog photo. JPG)
Even if it’s Crap-Min Medicine,
If it still sprouts eleven hairs, shouldn’t they be bowing in gratitude?
— If one bottle gives you eleven hairs, think about it, dumbass lol
┗ How many people have to drink it per day, then? lol
┗ Stop saying things like that!!!
┗ Old guys lose it faster than they grow it back!!!
┗ Thought it was a defense, but it turned into a fatal blow lol
┗ He literally swung the shield like a weapon lol
┗ LMAOO
— I trusted you!! I trusted you, Admin!!!
┗ You’re the bad one!! My hair keeps falling out every day!!!
┗ You bastard.
— Admin Medicine is up again!!!!
┗ For real?
┗ Effect review, please.
┗ Twelve hairs sprouted.
┗ Shut up shut up shut up.
— It’s up again!!!!
┗ Is it legit this time????
┗ Twenty hairs sprouted!!!
┗ For real?
┗ Ingrown hairs….
┗ Shit lol
┗ Why the hell are they growing in reverse? lol
— Was Admin Medicine really legendary?
┗ I dreamed of having thick hair…
┗ Then why are you crying…?
┗ Because that dream can never come true….
┗ No! That can’t be! The real Admin Medicine must exist!!!
┗ I think so too ㅇㅇ
┗ Admin hasn’t shown up yet ㅇㅇ
┗ He’s gonna come back with a badass “ta-da!” I believe in Admin!!!
[Title]: I Just Figured Out Admin’s Intentions lol
Whatever the case, this bastard… is in possession of the legendary hair-loss cure recipe.
Would he really hand it over so easily?
Admin already showed that the real Admin Medicine exists once, just to prove it was real.
And now, he’s testing the waters with Crap-Min Medicine.
Guilds and rich folks, hurry up and name your price!
— So this was it lol This makes sense lol
┗ This bastard knows exactly how to drive people insane
┗ For real, he gave them a little taste of the real deal lol
┗ No way Admin would just hand over the hair-loss cure recipe so easily lol
┗ Make an offer already!
┗ ???: What would you like in exchange for the hair-loss cure recipe?
┗ ???: The Earth.
┗ LMAOO
┗ Fair enough.
— Admin is literally negotiating with the top players right now LMAO!!
┗ Ah Hurry up and name your price lol
┗ For real lol You think developing a hair-loss cure is a joke?
┗ This is worth at least half the world lol
┗ What are you doing, guilds? Hurry up and make your offer!
┗ What can small-time hunters like us even do?
┗ Just grab some popcorn ㅇㅇ
— [Admin] Guys;; wait a sec;;
┗ He’s here!!!
┗ What’s he gonna say?
┗ [Admin] I… don’t actually remember how I made this ㅠ
┗ [Admin] I just stumbled upon it while making something else;;
┗ ???
┗ Oh fuck lol
— Hey!! Guilds!! Raise your offers!!
┗ Whatever reward you were preparing, double it.
┗ Admin says he forgot the recipe lol
┗ Then we just gotta make him remember lol
┗ Better start throwing out some serious offers.
— ??? : The Earth isn’t enough! We’ll throw in Mars too!!
┗ Admin already went to Mars once, that won’t work lol
┗ Not like Admin Coin wasn’t already headed to Mars again lol
┗ Admin, Bong Joon-ho, and Son Heung-min, let’s go!!!
┗ Bong Joon-ho really made it, being mentioned alongside Admin.
┗ Son Heung-min’s made it too lol
┗ Damn, the Orange Badge squad lol
“No… but I’m serious….”
Admin scratched his head alone.
***
“Timothy. Guild Master!!”
“I saw it too!”
Even Timothy, the Guild Master of Handful Squad, was in total confusion.
A guild needs a business model to sustain itself. An overwhelming technology or financial pipeline.
To secure an unshakable spot as the #1 guild, it still wasn’t enough.
They needed an absolute advantage. That meant securing the recipe for Admin Medicine.
If only they had demanded the recipe in exchange for a blank check reward… That regret hit hard.
“Admin says… he doesn’t remember how he made it.”
“That’s impossible….”
How could someone not remember the exact combination of ingredients they mixed with their own hands?
A slightly dazed image of Admin suddenly flashed through Timothy’s mind.
‘Huh… brain lag moment.’
….
No, no. That can’t be. No human could be that forgetful.
Besides, recording your process while crafting is basic protocol. He must be asking for something more.
“Should we offer money?”
“No.”
Admin had zero interest in money or power.
And even if they could buy the recipe, not even Handful Squad could afford it.
This was a world-changing discovery.
Timothy had met him in person. There was only one moment Admin had ever shown interest in something.
“I think I know how.”
First, approach him politely.
“Huh?”
“I’ll personally ask on the Gallery.”
Timothy stood up.
“Guild Master!!”
“Guild Master!! Shouldn’t you go through the Gallery Communications Team?”
“Or just summon Admin directly…?”
Guild members desperately tried to stop her.
This was Timothy.
The leader of Handful Squad, one of Korea’s core guilds.
Aside from the recently appeared Red-Haired Hunter, she was one of the strongest hunters alive.
An essential figure in Korea’s power structure was about to post on the Gallery.
To personally make a polite request.
A situation so rare was unfolding before the guild members’ eyes.
“No. I have to do this myself….”
“If that’s the Master’s decision….”
The guild members stepped aside.
Like the parting of the seas.
This was a first.
But for the honor of the guild… she would make the offer herself.
“…First, bring me some nice clothes. Something a little… revealing….”
“?!!!”
The guild members witnessed it.
Timothy’s flushed cheeks.
“I believe… this is the only way to get Admin’s attention….”
“…”
For that moment, she was not the awe-inspiring Guild Master or the strongest warrior.
She was just a woman.
**{{The terms ‘Tentacles’ ,’Balding Squid Squad’, ‘Octopus’ and ‘Tentacle Gang’ are mocking nicknames used by other hunters to refer to bald individuals who are desperate for the admin’s hair loss potion. The nickname comes from the octopus, as its smooth, hairless head resembles baldness.}}
