1"I'm Used to It"Shunsuke NakashigeNoboru KimuraShunsuke Nakashige & Hirotaka TokudaJanuary 7, 2024 (2024-01-07)
Sung Jin-woo, E-rank hunter, enters a dungeon gate with his friend Lee Joo-hee (a B-rank healer) and a part of other stronger Hunters. As the weakest Hunter, and with only the most basic equipment, he manages to kill only one monster. After the boss is killed, however, the gate does not collapse, instead a second connected dungeon is revealed. The party is split six to six on whether or not to proceed; Jin-woo casts the tiebreaker to send them down into the second half of the double dungeon. After wandering with no monster encounters the party enters a large room filled with statues, which come alive and begin slaughtering the Hunters.

Jin-woo realizes that the dungeon they are in has specific rules by which to survive the statues - first, to "revere God," second to "praise God," and finally to "prove your faith to God." Several Hunters are killed as Jin-woo and the senior Hunter leading the party, Song Chi-yul, slowly manage to decipher the instructions on how to survive. Finally, only Chi-yul, Joo-hee (who has collapsed from the stress), and Jin-woo are left, and Jin-woo tells Chi-yul to evacuate with Joo-hee while he holds the door. Left alone, Jin-woo rages against his imminent death, and receives a message that he has completed the hidden quest and may become a [Player] if he accepts the offer before his heart stops.
