Episode 374
Ep. 374
“Now for the rewards! Let’s open them up!”
“Oh, yes!”
After clearing the 100th Floor, I checked the notifications and decided to finally open the rewards I’d postponed from clearing the 99th and 100th Floors.
First, from the 99th Floor reward alone, I obtained a whopping 40 A-rank Magic Stones.
When combined with what the Spirits obtained, A-rank Magic Stones—items that practically no one else besides Ilgyeok had acquired—were pouring in by the hundreds.
“Let’s see… First, the 100th Floor reward is the Sun God’s Blessing?”
I pulled up the notifications I’d set aside in order, my brow furrowing.
“Just hearing the name, it sounds like a precious treasure, Master.”
“Beep beep beep. Items with the name ‘Divine Blessing’ can be classified in the top 0.00003928%.”
“But why do you look unhappy, Master?”
Despite the grand name, I didn’t seem particularly pleased.
When Elsie asked the reason, I answered in a reluctant tone.
“Sun God’s Blessing… it just sounds like some sketchy medicine name, you know?”
“…”
For such a reason?
The two Spirits and one Golem stared at me with expressions suggesting they’d heard every absurd thing imaginable.
Well, even being generous about the name having that kind of feel, this was an item the system itself had given as a 100th Floor clear reward.
It couldn’t possibly be sketchy medicine!
Of course, I knew that fact very well.
「Sun God’s Blessing (S)」
Just looking at the rank attached to the name, it was clear this was no sketchy medicine—it was the finest elixir under heaven.
I went ahead and pulled out the item with the tremendous name “Sun God’s Blessing” from my inventory.
*Click*
“Hmm…”
“M-Master was right.”
“Beep beep beep.”
And the two Spirits and one Golem were left speechless.
“I wasn’t just making things up, was I?”
Who could have known that the Sun God’s Blessing I’d pulled out was actually a real medicine contained in a small narrow bottle?
Moreover, unlike something a god would give, the bottle looked slightly cracked and extremely worn, with a bit of dust settled on it.
In every way, if not for its rank, it had the appearance of something one couldn’t simply consume without hesitation.
“S-Still… the effects must be quite remarkable, right?”
“I’ll need to check that.”
“Please check right away, Master.”
I nodded at the Spirits’ urging and opened the description window.
After all, it was an S-rank item, so it surely wouldn’t disappoint me…
“?!?!?!!?!!!”
“Why, what’s wrong?!”
“Beep-boop-beep. Automatic destruction recommended….”
“Golem Fox, you said you don’t make qualitative assessments because you’re a golem, right? Are you really trying to destroy that item just by looking at its appearance?”
“Of course not. I was merely predicting Master’s emotional state.”
As Ihyeon’s expression shifted to one of astonishment, Jia, Elsie, and Blue were practically bursting with curiosity.
「Blessing of the Sun God (S)
Consumable item.
Upon consumption, the effects of all stats increase.
Grants the ‘Sun’ attribute to attacks that don’t have skills applied.
A one-time exclusive skill, ‘Grace of the Sun God’, is applied.」
“This is… far too good….”
“Well, if Master says so, then it must be.”
In a way, it was an answer that didn’t betray expectations.
But look at those brilliant effects.
How could one not be astonished?
Even the Sea King’s Trident, said to be a treasure of the Dragon Palace, only provided a modest increase to stat effects.
But the Blessing of the Sun God, while perhaps not a dramatic increase, was clearly far superior in its effects.
Moreover, the ‘Sun’ attribute that could be granted to attacks was undoubtedly going to possess incredible broken potential.
And the ‘Grace of the Sun God’ written at the end….
*Gulp*
‘I’ll only know if I drink it.’
“M-Master drank it!”
Without further deliberation, Ihyeon uncorked the gourd bottle and drank its contents.
Like taking a sip of high-proof spirits, considerable heat traveled down his esophagus into his stomach.
As Ihyeon’s expression contorted again, Elsie shot to her feet and cried out.
“That damned Sun God, he didn’t give you something past its expiration date, did he?”
“…How could he have done that?”
“I’m reporting this to the health department right now…!”
It was absurd enough to make one wonder what nonsense she was spouting, but now that Ihyeon thought about it, he felt a twinge of worry too.
After all, if a god gave you a potion, when it was made and how it was stored were completely unknown!
If Elsie filed a complaint with the health department as she suggested, they would undoubtedly dismiss it with ‘You’re talking like a Sun God or something’ and pay it no mind.
‘Could he really have taken such petty revenge just because I hit his younger brother….’
Ihyeon and Elsie continued to exchange remarks that the Sun God would have called ‘vulgar and cowardly—give it back!’ had he heard them.
Fortunately, a divine elixir like the Blessing of the Sun God would have no expiration date whatsoever.
「You have acquired the one-time exclusive skill, ‘Grace of the Sun God’.」
All effects were applied normally.
Postponing confirmation of the Sun attribute for later, Ihyeon first opened the details of the exclusive skill.
「Exclusive Skill: Grace of the Sun God
Limited to one use, unconditionally revives the caster.
After revival, the effects of all stats increase slightly.」
“Hmm.”
Ihyeon nodded in acknowledgment.
It was a skill that could only be expressed in such terms.
‘No matter how I think about it, to grant such an overpowered skill. Thank you, Sun God.’
Just moments ago, Ihyeon had been gleefully mocking the Sun God alongside Elsie, complaining about expiration dates and food safety regulations, but now he had become a devoted believer in his heart.
Indeed, he was the protagonist of bold determination who had even imprisoned his own younger brother underground to save the great plains.
No matter how strong Ihyeon was, the Tower remained an unknown space where anything could happen at any time and place.
Especially now that he had to venture into the 100s—truly uncharted territory that no one had ever set foot in before—it was all the more crucial.
Ihyeon called out to the Vice Captain who was outside.
“Yes, Lord, did you call for me?”
“Have a few of the squad members build an altar to enshrine the Sun God on some unused land.”
“Pardon? The Sun God, you say?”
“Ah, well, he is a different god from the ones you all worship, so I wasn’t sure if it would be appropriate.”
“Not at all, sir. The squad members would be absolutely delighted if it’s the Sun God.”
“???”
That didn’t seem quite right.
Ihyeon tilted his head in confusion, but the Vice Captain, paying no mind, cheerfully gathered a few squad members and disappeared somewhere.
After that, loud hammering and banging could be heard, but I decided to postpone checking on that for later.
The S+ privilege of the 100th Floor was.
“Kya!”
「Reaper’s Spear (Death God’s Spear) (S)」
I had obtained another S-rank item.
Even for someone like me, obtaining two S-rank items in a single floor was not common, but the symbolic significance of the 100th Floor seemed to be at play.
Ihyeon immediately retrieved the Reaper’s Spear from his inventory.
“Oh, what’s this?”
Elsie and the others immediately showed interest.
Despite its name, the Reaper’s Spear possessed a remarkably elegant appearance.
A spear shaft that extended in a golden hue reminiscent of sand.
And the spearhead featured a wavy pattern that flowed before splitting into two directions and converging back into one.
「All of the user’s stats increase significantly.
You can use the exclusive skill, ‘Gate of Hell Opening’.
You can use the exclusive skill, ‘Guidance of Death’.
All attacks can be imbued with the ‘Death’ attribute.
All attacks have a probability of applying ‘Execution’.」
“Wow….”
“Kya….”
“Pya….”
Ihyeon, Elsie, and a squad member who happened to be passing by all let out exclamations of awe in unison.
Ihyeon and Elsie looked at him with confusion and asked.
“Why did you suddenly…?”
“Ah, my apologies. It seemed like the three of us needed to match.”
“That’s right, that’s right. Well done.”
The two of them promptly patted his back in encouragement before sending him off again.
In any case, befitting an S-rank item, it possessed truly formidable effects.
Not only did all my stats increase dramatically, but it came with two exclusive skills.
And these weren’t just any exclusive skills.
Fitting the epithet of “Reaper,” merely hearing their names conveyed a sense of tremendous power.
Moreover, though probabilistic, it even granted an execution effect.
“By execution, you mean the kind where enemies just drop dead with a few decent hits, right?”
“Y-yes, that would be it, wouldn’t it?”
“I share that assessment, Master.”
“Beep boop. I can provide a detailed explanation of the execution effect, but it is estimated to require approximately 18,000 seconds.”
“Give me the brief version.”
“Your assessment and Elsie’s are correct, Master.”
Blue confirmed the effect.
I had no idea what the probability was, but even if it were merely 1%, it was undoubtedly a remarkable option—one that had never been revealed to the world before, given its potential impact in combat.
‘Well, since I’m the only one who’s cleared the 100th Floor so far, I suppose it’s fine to keep an item of this caliber.’
「Ilgyeok: Deokhuun, where are you right now?
Bong Jangseondal: I’m at the company right now, hyung.
Ilgyeok: I’m sending you an item. Get it branded.
Bong Jangseondal: ???」
Deokhuun, who had been working diligently at the company, felt as though lightning had struck from a clear sky, but Ihyeon showed no mercy.
Immediately, I activated one of the friend features—item transfer!
…Though truthfully, even among friends, one rarely sends B-rank or higher items so casually.
Neither Ihyeon sending it nor Deokhuun receiving it paid any attention to such matters.
After all, they both knew well that S-rank items dropped for Ihyeon at roughly the rate C-rank items dropped for other Hunters.
Besides, Deokhuun betraying Ihyeon and harboring ill intentions?
How could Deokhuun, who had witnessed Ihyeon’s sniper rifle firsthand, possibly do such a thing?
Of course.
“Kyaaahhhhh!! Another S-rank item!!!”
Though Deokhuun hadn’t expected Ihyeon to send him an S-rank item so readily.
Deokhuun, who had briefly sunk into sorrow, bounced back with characteristic resilience.
“Right, I was planning to treat hyung grandly once he cleared the 100th Floor anyway, so this works out perfectly.”
In fact, Deokhuun, being a Hunter himself, was well aware that Ihyeon had cleared two consecutive Floors.
He was astonished and delighted, but as the second-in-command of South Korea’s byproduct industry, he couldn’t help but analyze the subsequent announcements that followed.
He had to mobilize all strategic departments of Ilgyeok Corporation to discuss countermeasures while constantly devising responses that wouldn’t fall behind in competition with Tapsanryeon.
As a result, Yunjung was with Deokhuun as well.
“An S-rank item? What are you suddenly talking about, President?”
They had been conducting a solid strategy meeting when he suddenly received a message and let out a shriek.
Deokhuun, clutching his forehead, spoke to Yunjung.
“Exactly as I said. My hyung has sent me another S-rank item.”
“?!”
Yunjung was taken aback.
“Br-brother? You mean Ilgyeok?”
“Who else would send S-rank items like that?”
Even for Ilgyeok, sending S-rank items so casually was reckless!
Yunjung had plenty to say, but she couldn’t figure out where to even begin her criticism.
It didn’t help that her counterpart was still her superior, the guild master.
To frustrate someone’s mind to this degree—was this what workplace harassment felt like?
…That wasn’t quite it.
In any case, Yunjung had also received an outstanding S-rank item called the Demon Dagger from Ihyeon.
And its effects were incredible!
In Ilgyeok Guild’s headquarters Training Tower, whether one possessed the Demon Dagger determined whether they could clear one additional floor.
Despite considerable time having passed since the Training Tower opened, the fact that a single item could enable someone to breach one more floor—when only now was someone barely clearing the first floor—was truly only possible with an S-rank item.
‘B-but such an S-rank item, and Ilgyeok just hands them out around like buying luxury handbags?’
This became the catalyst for Yunjung’s fear of Ihyeon to deepen even further.
Moreover, Deokhuun’s reaction was more than enough to fuel her misunderstanding.
‘Why does the guild master look so displeased even after receiving an S-rank item?’
Could he have grown tired of S-rank items?
Zzzzzt——!!!
Yunjung cast a fierce glare at Deokhuun, thinking she’d never seen someone so full before.
Those poor Hunters in America couldn’t even properly obtain A-rank items and were struggling among the monsters, yet in Korea, S-rank items poured out and people were actually bothered by receiving them!
…If she knew the truth, Yunjung would certainly understand it wasn’t like that, but at least from her current perspective, it was.
Of course, American Hunters didn’t appear particularly pitiful in the eyes of Hunters from other nations either.
But for Deokhuun, who understood nothing of the situation, it was simply terrifying.
“W-why are you looking at me like that?”
Right now Yunjung was coordinating well with him, but originally she was skilled enough that if she wanted, she could cleanly dispose of Deokhuun and leisurely depart for America!
