I'm a max level newbie - episode 213
213fury. The death of a soul)
gone…….
An all too familiar energy tickled my skin..
Although they had never met in person, Yuseong Cheon recognized who the other person was right away..
The person who created Chuhongeom (追魂劍).
A person who was thought to have died a long time ago and now has white bones has now appeared before our eyes..
"Hmm. You are a boy named Cheon Yu-seong.."
20Looks like someone just passed their generation.
Baek Seol-lin was also second to none in terms of beauty, but even she was nothing compared to Chuhon Sa-yeong..
It was hard to believe that the aura emanating from the jet-black short hair and clear eyes, like a fairy described in a folktale, was human..
"dead… … That wasn't it."
"It is said that he was able to enjoy a long life thanks to the transformation and recovery from old age. Of course, there were some restrictions due to the tower.……."
Was it something like that?.
The opportunity gained by tearing down the tower's system and walls.
Now I understand why Chuhonsayeong could be here..
"Such a person in hiding... … What is the reason you came to see me??"
"I felt the same thing about you as I did. A talent different from that of a criminal. And the desire that cannot be satisfied with just that."
Chuhonsayeong slowly adjusted his sword..
"I learned the Chuhon Sword. It was quite interesting to see this child through someone else's sword. However, it still has an immature taste.."
Sigh.
The herbal diet that Cheon Yu-seong did a little while ago…….
No, a sword so sophisticated and elegant that it could not be compared was demonstrated..
It’s such a perfect sword dance that it gives you goosebumps..
Cheon Yu-seong was so immersed in the sword of Chu Hon Sa-yeong that he even forgot the passage of time..
'Is this the true Ghost Sword?.'
If only I could learn all these phrases…….
If you can make all of this your own.
He will definitely be able to surpass Jinhyeok..
And finally. One measure of sword dance is over..
Chu Hon Sa-young looked at Cheon Yu-seong with clear eyes..
"It doesn't matter if it's a lie. I understand even if you consider it a means to an end. Just swear that you will use your sword for me to reach the end.."
Even if it is full of pretense.
And even though I don't know what the consequences will be.
Chu Hon Sa-yeong asked Cheon Yu-seong to have the courtesy of a teacher..
'already… … There is no other way than this.'
I was ready to throw everything away to become stronger..
But at the last moment, Jinhyeok’s face appeared in Cheon Yuseong’s mind..
I always thought he was a hateful, sly guy..
For some reason, the thought of seeing his disappointed expression made me feel sick..
Okay!
'Don't think of it as betrayal. Because you and I were enemies from the beginning.'
The worries didn't last long.
"See you, Master.."
Cheon Yu-seong raised his courtesy..
***
As the sun rises near.
Jinhyeok followed Fenheimer to the ‘Imperial Treasure House’ located on the outskirts of the capital..
While the externally visible treasures are inside the imperial palace, this is a place where the real treasures that the imperial family cherishes and cherishes are stored..
"Now we are there. I'll open the door, so just wait here for a moment.."
Facing a large cliff in front of him, Fenheimer placed his palm on the rock..
Kukukukukuk!
Suddenly the rock began to move left and right, creating a space big enough for one person to fit in..
"Whoa. You put in a lot of effort compared to humans. The door opens only when the person granted permission supplies the correct amount of magical power. If this is the case, security will be certain.."
Ellis let out a small gasp..
But the surprise didn't end there..
The moment you enter the treasure trove.
Tremendous treasures beyond imagination greeted everyone..
'As expected, as expected from a huge power, the things they have set up are extremely unreasonable..'
Jinhyuk's eyes were shining with greed..
From various magic weapons to rare artifacts that were priced at exorbitant prices on coin exchanges..
Anyone who sees this in front of their eyes will have no choice but to drool..
It was painful to have to choose just one thing, but if you choose the best one, you will find some peace of mind..
"Oh oh! Can’t I just pick one? I really want this sparkling gem.."
Ellis grabbed a fist-sized blue diamond with a very flushed face..
It’s not like asking someone to buy you an accessory you like while walking down the streets of Hongdae..
At a glance, they were trying to rip off a gem that could buy up all the buildings in Hongdae..
They are coveting all the expensive wines.…….
For Penheimer, it’s inevitable that he will feel upset..
"Well, the one who signed the contract was Jinhyuk, so that’s a bit much.……."
Fenheimer broke into a cold sweat as if he was troubled, but there was no way those words would reach Ellis's ears..
"thank you."
Juseomjuseom.
One by one, the wines were sucked into the subspace inventory..
"no. I didn't say a word about giving it to you, but."
"huh. I will do my best to help you too."
"Now, just a moment.."
Fenheimer urgently stretched out his hand..
However, the jewel had already disappeared into Ellis's subspace inventory..
While an atrocity almost like robbery is taking place.
Jinhyeok was searching with eagle eyes among numerous treasures..
'It's the best…….'
Sword, spear, bow, shield, armor, accessories.
Nothing looks bad at all.
Among them, a pair of sharp daggers and an ink-colored spear were of such high perfection that one could reach out without realizing it..
'Are these weapons made by dwarves?.'
Jinhyuk activated ‘Eye of Gluttony’ and confirmed two items..
[Dagger made by master craftsman 'Makmum']
offense power: 2100
Durability: 1000/1000
- Detailed description: This is a dagger made by smelting orichalcum, known as the metal of the gods, and can inflict 100% additional damage to dark attribute monsters. However, since it was designed for decoration for high-ranking people rather than for combat, its basic attack power is somewhat low..
[Window made by craftsman ‘Montrehorn’]
offense power: 5500
Durability: 3300/3300
- Detailed description: This is a spear made by smelting iron from the black iron mine located on the 25th floor of the tower. As expected from the craftsmanship, it has excellent attack power and durability, but due to the nature of black iron, it has the disadvantage of polluting the user's mind when used for a long period of time..
There were some shortcomings, but this was more than enough to endure..
Other items also had more disadvantages than advantages..
'I can't stay here all day, so I'll have to choose between the two..'
But just when I was about to make a choice.
Translucent glass bottles gathered in Jinhyuk’s gaze..
The dark red liquid contained in the glass bottle was emitting a strange energy..
This can't be right…….
It's definitely true.
"Mr. Penheimer. I also decided."
Jinhyuk put down his weapon and took out a glass bottle from the display case..
"hmm. Are you sure you want to choose that??"
"It looks the best out of all the ones here.."
"The choice is up to you, Jinhyuk, but I would like to stop you from doing that if possible. I don't know, that's……."
"I know. Blood of the Red Dragon."
"……!"
At Jinhyuk’s answer, Penheimer flinched..
"Are you saying that you choose it even though you know it??"
Dragon's blood is usually used as a top-quality magic ingredient..
Since it was flowing within the body of a dragon, which can be said to be a crystal of magical power, it was bound to have tremendous efficacy..
The problem is that handling that blood requires extreme difficulty..
Even the Empire's chief wizard failed to use this blood to strengthen his weapons, which means that virtually no one in the Empire can handle this blood..
however.
In fact, there is only one person in the empire who can handle this..
A rare craftsman who can transcend magic and manipulate all things..
"yes. I'll take this."
Jinhyuk nodded without hesitation..
"haha. If someone else had insisted, he would have said it was foolish... … Since Jinhyuk said that, I’m looking forward to something. I can't be gone for too long, so I'll just leave, but I hope Jinhyuk achieves what he wants.."
Fenheimer, who had to monitor the situation of the nobles, bid farewell here..
***
After lunch time, the streets of the capital were crowded with people..
Thanks to this, a gap appeared in the once iron-clad security. Jinhyuk and Ellis were also able to wander the streets together..
"It's a long-awaited trip, but I won't be able to see it to my heart's content if I hide away like this.."
Ellis complained with his cheeks puffed out..
As there was relatively little time for her to appear outside the ring, Ellis wanted to see and enjoy as much as possible when she came out..
of course.
When Jinhyuk heard those words, he could only sigh..
"you… … Does the word ‘travel’ come up in this situation??"
To the noble faction within the martial arts empire... … Even the Heavenly Demon Church and the Demon Association are involved..
Isn't it obvious that players and large guilds who chose a faction will also participate in this war??
According to Gawain's words, Cheon Yu-seong may have even ate that damn bastard.,
I also had to take care of Namgung-cheon, who led the Chinese guild but then switched to the martial arts guild, so it was inevitable that it would be a huge headache overall..
however.
"Hmm. You can't just sweep it all away.?"
Ellis still tilted his head with an innocent expression..
Anyway, this is why I don't like Jinjo guys..
Because you push ahead ignorantly without even thinking about it..
"If you appear and make a fuss, the remaining Jinjo family heads will start to move, and even the tower manager will intervene. It must be so convenient. right?"
"I think it would be worth it if it was just you, me, and that mosquito guy.?"
"done. I shouldn't speak."
Jinhyuk clicked his tongue and shook his head..
timely.
The destination is starting to appear.
[Orun's Forge]
[50The best blacksmith shop in the empire where you can feel the hand of craftsmen.!]
[You can also pay for alcohol.]
[Kindness, service, love. customer satisfaction 1.6%]
[No. 1 unfriendly store designated by the Empire]
There were dozens of blacksmith shops nearby, but this one was in a particularly serious condition..
The sign was about to fall... … In the first place, among the sentences written on the sign, there were some very suspicious things mixed in..
"This is a good place?"
"It looks like it, but it's true that the owner here is quite skilled.."
"Umm. It's really hard to believe……."
Ellis muttered doubtfully and went inside..
"Grumbling… … Wow! Wow! Ugh!"
The loud sound of snoring greeted me instead of greeting me..
A dwarf with a red face can be seen falling into a sweet sleep in the middle of the forge..
The old man with a small but sturdy physique was the dwarf ‘Orun’..
"hello."
"Grumbling!"
"hey?"
"drung!"
"hmm. I brought some good wine. I can't help it since you're sleeping. Should I go to the blacksmith shop right next door?……."
"Big… … what? surgery!? Did you say alcohol??"
Orun's eyes opened brightly..
How addicted is it to alcohol to be able to react to something so small?.
Well, I'm glad I don't have to bother waking you up..
"Wow. okay. What brought you here??"
"I would like to entrust you with a request.."
"request? That's good. How long has this been... … No, you are a guest. No matter what I entrust you with, I will do it amazingly.."
"It's not that I don't trust you, Orun, but could you please test it? Of course, we will calculate this separately.."
Jinhyuk took out an ornament decorated with various jewels on his palm..
It was the bracelet that Ellis had..
"hey! That's mine, right? Before you know it……!"
"Shh!"
"Wow… … Whoop!"
Jinhyuk quickly covered Ellis' mouth and looked at Orun again..
"Would you mind??"
"It's a test... … . haha. Looks like this has lost a lot of my trust.."
Behind his deeply subdued voice, there was a deep sense of anger at having his craftsman's skills questioned and a sense of self-deprecation for being put in such a situation..
"No need for payment. I was called ‘the undying anvil’ by you in the Dwarven Kingdom. What kind of person is Orun? … I'll show you now."
Orun took out a heavy hammer..
Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!
A hammer decorated with ancient runes is imbued with indescribable magical power..
And at that very moment.
"Eurachacha!"
hammer fell down from the sky.
Kwaaaaang!
[Reinforcement failed!]
[Queen Pendrigon's bracelet was destroyed!]
"……."
"……."
"……."
A short silence followed..
It was a really short silence..
"haha. Have you been drinking too much lately? My hand slipped."
"Wow!!"
Alice screamed as if she had lost the whole world..
"this… … You damn dwarf old man!!"
