Episode 10.
There is a saying, “birds of a feather flock together.”
In short, it means that they are arguing among themselves.
This has a deep connection with relationships not only with friends but also with spouses.
A pretty and capable woman goes with a handsome and capable man.
Likewise, handsome and capable men date pretty and capable women.
The children who inherited those genes will do the same thing again.
As this virtuous cycle repeats over generations, genes that are almost perfect are born.
And the SH Group, which can be called the pinnacle of ability.
The youngest granddaughter of the SH Group, Han Chae-rin.
Slightly wavy hair that falls to the shoulders.
Skin as white as a sheet of paper and a graceful body.
Even the innocence that flows out in a cold atmosphere that feels like an ice rink.
‘It’s pretty.’
My first impression of Han Chae-rin when I saw her in person was definitely this.
If I may be a little blunt, would it be enough to crush any celebrity or actor?
I don’t know, but if I had debuted in the entertainment industry, it would have caused quite a stir.
But what would the SH Group’s granddaughter regret?
It was just an imagination, like a pipe dream.
“Do you have anything to say to me?”
As Siwoo stared intently at her face, Han Chae-rin asked.
A blank tone and face that shows no emotion.
I wonder if that’s a robot or a person.
“No, that’s not it… Did you come alone?”
“yes.”
Han Chae-rin gave a short answer to Si-woo’s question.
A tone that is cold, almost ruthless.
I thought it was a real robot and not a person, but whatever.
‘Well, with two S-rank personalities awakened, who would be protecting whom?’
The mysterious power called magic gave people superhuman strength.
Although she was thought to be a delicate woman, Han Chae-rin was a genius who became an A-class hunter as soon as she awakened.
That A-class talk was only a current story.
He was a genius of great caliber who was almost certain to become an S-class hunter within a few years.
But I thought you’d have a driver or a secretary with you.
It seemed like no one else was visible besides Han Chae-rin, perhaps because of her personality.
“Then I will leave right away.”
After saying those words, Han Chae-rin took a step forward.
Siwoo smiled awkwardly in the cold atmosphere.
Do-cheol followed her as she left.
And then, as he passed Siwoo, he suddenly spoke.
“Don’t show unnecessary interest.”
“What are you interested in?”
Siwoo answered as if he was being foolish.
It’s true that as a man I do look at pretty women, but that’s about it.
However, if it was called interest, it was nothing more than interest in celebrities on TV.
To begin with, he is a person from a completely different world than Siwoo.
The only thing we can say we have in common is that we are both Koreans.
That we are breathing the same air and living under the same sky.
Other than that, he was a person from a completely different world.
Above all, Siwoo is just a cameraman and video editor.
Han Chae-rin is the youngest granddaughter of SH Group.
“I should just do my job.”
In many ways, the world we live in is so different.
* * *
Groan─! Groan─!!
A terrifying, creepy roar.
Jet black skin.
A huge body measuring 3 meters tall and with bulging muscles.
A black troll of a whopping B+ rank.
“When dealing with black trolls, there is only one important thing to remember.”
Do-cheol walked leisurely in front of him.
Behind Do-cheol, the three hunters who accompanied him formed a line.
Kwaaaa …
The black troll’s roar grew more intense.
However, Do-cheol did not panic and continued speaking calmly.
“The regenerative power of black trolls lies in their blood. It is a trait that applies not only to black trolls, but to all troll races.”
Kwaaaa …
As if he didn’t want to hear Do-cheol’s words anymore.
The black troll charged, letting out a loud roar.
A B+ grade black troll.
The standard recommended by the association was an A-class hunter.
It would have to be at least A-class to handle it easily.
However, the standard for something that can be easily handled by oneself is A-grade.
If you hit the jackpot, the standard goes down significantly.
And when you know the strategy, the difficulty level goes down even more.
Do-cheol and the hunters teamed up to fight the black troll.
It was a tough battle, but in the end, swoosh─!
After a close fight, Do-cheol was able to cut off the black troll’s head.
And a beheading meant death.
However, this did not apply to the black troll.
Gulp!
A strange noise was heard, and the severed troll’s neck shook.
And then again, gurgle, gurgle.
Flesh began to tangle around the black troll’s neck.
The resilience to regenerate even if the neck is cut off.
It could truly be said to be an immortal being.
A black troll classified as a B+, the highest grade among B-grade monsters, due to its immortal regenerative powers.
“Usually, the known strategy is to tear the entire body apart so that regeneration itself is impossible….”
Do-cheol then walked towards the black troll that was playing.
In that brief moment, the black troll was almost finished regenerating its severed neck.
“If you knew that the troll’s regenerative power was in its blood, then you wouldn’t have to do that.”
Do-cheol stood in front of the black troll and calmly raised his sword.
And then the chest area, not the head.
That is, he thrust his sword without hesitation towards where the heart is.
With a “Phuuk!” sound, Do-cheol’s sword was thrust in.
But maybe it didn’t completely penetrate the leather?
Do-cheol stabbed his sword into his heart several times.
How many times did I repeat that?
The troll’s movements, which had been playing for a moment, suddenly stopped.
And gurgle!
The sound of a broken heart being regenerated was heard.
Truly amazing regenerative power.
“Can you see? The regeneration has slowed down compared to before.”
But the playback was slow.
“Because the heart is destroyed and it is difficult to supply blood to the whole body. In short, it means that the regenerative power is weakened. So at this time, you can hit the head.”
Then, Do-cheol cut off the head of the troll that had been regenerated.
As expected, I couldn’t easily penetrate the black troll’s hide, so I repeated the process several times.
But soon after, squeak─!
The black troll’s head was cut off and it showed no further signs of regeneration.
Complete death.
“If you know the strategy, you can hunt this efficiently.”
Do-cheol made a gesture as if to ask what was going on.
It looks like it’s really easy, right?
‘Then and now. That guy hasn’t changed.’
Siwoo snorted without realizing it.
That would be the case, after all Do-cheol had just done.
So, this is the strategy for defeating the black troll that Do-cheol mentioned.
Because all of that was analyzed by Siwoo alone.
In short, Do-cheol merely recited the information that Si-woo had analyzed.
I really wanted to laugh at you, but whatever.
‘Because I received 50 million won.’
Since the price included the permission for that bluff, Siwoo didn’t say anything else.
“okay.”
A clear voice flowed out from behind Siwoo’s thoughts.
When I looked over there, Han Chae-rin was nodding her head slightly.
“I think it would be easier for you, Han Chae-rin… Ah! I see one over there. How about you try it yourself?”
Do-cheol said to Han Chae-rin with a kind smile.
The sight of that pretentious appearance made Siwoo feel sick, but so what.
‘Because I received 50 million won.’
The price included holding back the nausea, which Siwoo was able to endure by holding it in.
“Yeah.”
Han Chae-rin answered lightly and stepped forward.
And tadak!
Han Chae-rin suddenly disappeared?
“……?”
“……?”
The expressions on everyone’s faces suddenly rose to the surface.
Han Chae-rin’s appearance looks as if she has evaporated.
Something I wanted to do for a moment.
Kwaaaa …
From one side, a black troll’s roar was heard.
Siwoo instinctively turned the camera.
And the scene caught on camera.
Dodge, stab, and slash.
Ssuk, squawk, squeak.
That was the end.
Just three movements.
And three sounds.
With a thud, the black troll collapsed to the ground.
The fallen black troll showed no further movement.
Above that, Han Chae-rin’s indifferent voice was heard.
“It’s definitely easier now that I know the strategy.”
No, I don’t think this has anything to do with the presence or absence of a strategy.
Siwoo held back what he was about to say.
As expected, the other hunters, including Do-cheol, were also at a loss for words.
In fact, the black troll’s regenerative power was regenerative, but its original strength could not be ignored.
Explosive power from a huge mass.
Leather that is so tough it’s like steel.
Even a B-class Do-cheol couldn’t easily cut through the skin of a black troll.
It’s a good thing that it happened because I hit the jackpot.
If Do-cheol had been alone, it would have been difficult to handle.
It is difficult to even strike through the hide of a black troll.
Even if you cut it with such difficulty, it regenerates in an instant.
It could be said that it was a monster that was so difficult that it was crazy and jumped up and down.
So shouldn’t we upgrade the black troll to A-rank?
That voice kept coming out.
But Han Chae-rin cut off the black troll’s skin like cutting tofu.
And the heart and the head.
A clean stab and cut with an accurate blow.
Is a genius really a genius?
Of course, that wasn’t the only reason, but there seemed to be another reason.
“This is no ordinary sword.”
The sword used by Han Chae-rin.
Han Chae-rin nodded slightly at Si-woo’s words.
The sword that fell gracefully was extraordinary even at first glance.
“Is this the sword made by Master Aurelian?”
“How do you…?”
Then, Han Chae-rin showed a rather surprised expression.
For the first time, emotion appeared on his consistently expressionless face.
Even when catching a black troll, I thought it was a robot because its expression didn’t change at all.
It seemed like the person was right.
Well, anyway.
“Because it’s a sword that looks extraordinary even at first glance.”
To be exact, it can be said that it is a sword that fills in Han Chae-rin’s shortcomings.
Han Chae-rin’s talent was nothing short of genius, but she clearly seemed to lack experience.
Should I say that I still haven’t properly mastered my powers as an Awakened One?
That would be the case, since it is the power wielded by the Awakened who use the sword.
The power commonly referred to as the Auror Sword.
Because Han Chae-rin wasn’t able to use that power perfectly.
It was nearly impossible to cut through the black troll’s hide in one fell swoop without an aura sword.
That sword was what filled that void.
Of course, there weren’t many swords like that in the world.
There was only one person who could make such a sword.
Metallurgy Master, Aurelian.
The awakening of the Awakened is not limited to combat occupations.
That is, in Gaeseong, there also existed Gaeseong related to production occupations.
Among the many awakened production professions, there is a field called metallurgy.
In other words, the blacksmith who was considered the best in the world was the Metallurgy Master, Aurelian.
“It seems you have been recognized by Aurelian.”
And Aurelian didn’t make equipment for just anyone.
Why isn’t that there?
Things like the spirit of a craftsman and such.
Aurelian only made equipment for those he recognized.
So, Han Chae-rin is using Aurelian’s sword.
That was the part where we could see that Han Chae-rin’s talent was genius-level and that her personality was not bad either.
Because Aurelian valued character as much as ability and talent.
He said he didn’t want his equipment to fall into the hands of the bad guys or something.
They say they’ll give you a lot of money, but what does good and evil mean?
No, I think it’s better to give more money, but whatever.
“But it probably wouldn’t have been cheap….”
“I remember it was 23.7 billion.”
What, what? How much?
23.7 billion?!?
As expected, the one who gave more money was better.
And is it really true that he is the bloodline of the SH Group owner’s family?
The scene where he was fighting the black troll earlier was also like that.
The same goes for using Aurelian’s sword.
Deal and money.
Press down with a deal, press down with money.
‘I don’t think Han Chae-rin needed any strategy in the first place.’
It could be said that he already had the best strategy.
The strategy was something only a dullard would need.
As expected, she is a woman who lives in a different world from Siwoo.
Even being in the dungeon right now felt unrealistic.
‘But wait a minute.’
Then suddenly a thought crossed my mind.
Was it because the price of the weapon was so shocking?
‘Should I learn blacksmithing skills?’
The flow of thoughts naturally flowed this way.
Of course, it wasn’t as simple as it sounded.
It takes a natural sense and effort to create equipment like Aurelian.
And it was a task that required the rare talent of individuality.
But what.
【GodTube】
What can’t be done?
Individuality is something you can get just by subscribing.
Innate sense and effort….
‘I guess I can learn by watching Hephaestus videos.’
Hephaestus, the god of blacksmiths.
Hephaestus was a god in Greco-Roman mythology.
And all the equipment used by the highest gods of Olympus was made by Hephaestus, a craftsman of such excellence.
He is truly the god of metallurgy.
Aurelian, the master of metallurgy, was a sky above the sky that couldn’t even hand out business cards.
How can a Master present his business card before God?
Cheekily.
Anyway, what if you subscribe to that Hephaestus channel and learn metallurgy?
What if you could make and sell equipment with the skills you learned?
The price of the sword of Aurelian used by Han Chae-rin was a whopping 23.7 billion.
The equipment made by the Master is worth a whopping 23.7 billion.
So how much would the equipment of Hephaestus, the god of metallurgy, cost?
Even if you’re not very good, hundreds of billions are the basics.
It could have amounted to trillions of dollars.
It could have cost trillions of won, no exaggeration.
Because it’s literally worth the price.
Couldn’t it be possible to make the equipment that Siwoo will use himself?
I happen to have one subscription left.
With 50 million won, you can have a month’s leeway.
『
The channel was a little crazy though.
“Let’s continue.”
I need to finish work quickly, go home, and figure this out properly.
