Chapter 51
Chapter 51: The Pride of the Craftsman Clan (6)
Though I had spoken somewhat playfully, it was the absolute truth.
The Analysis message wasn’t orange for nothing—he was a formidable warrior. So much so that I felt a chill watching Talgrin’s final display of power.
If that attack had been directed at me, I would have felt genuine dread.
Had I not wielded my diverse abilities, I would have found victory difficult with my current stats alone. And in that moment, I understood something clearly.
Why we were warned never to provoke the Heterogeneous Beings.
‘It’s different, isn’t it.’
Should I call it axe mastery?
The way Talgrin wielded that axe was distinctly different from what Earth’s Hunters had learned.
Hwang Hana’s short sword technique was impressive too, but it carried a different quality entirely.
It was almost like watching martial arts forms from ancient legends.
There was a distinct method to the movements, and a separate system for channeling mana accordingly.
And Analysis was revealing exactly that to me.
[You analyze 『Anvilson Axe Combat Art』.]
‘Hmm.’
If I were to master this, I could wield an axe with the same finesse as Talgrin.
And by learning the axe skill alongside it, my proficiency would naturally rise in rank.
But I shook my head.
There was a reason.
[Learning martial arts passed down through specific clans, such as 『Anvilson Axe Combat Art』, may create interference when using other martial techniques.]
Analysis was warning me.
Of course, Analysis had no will of its own.
Even now.
[Will you learn 『Anvilson Axe Combat Art』?]
This message appeared.
It seemed like Analysis’s way of saying it would grant the skill if its master desired it, but I shook my head.
I understood that it was a powerful axe technique, but now was not the time to learn it.
As I declined, the message vanished.
Well, there was plenty else to gain anyway.
I wasn’t particularly disappointed.
Besides.
‘Let me see what spoils I can claim.’
With that thought, I smiled and reached into Talgrin’s pockets with practiced ease.
From his garments, I pulled out a small pouch and tilted my head curiously. Wondering what such a tiny pouch could be used for, Analysis provided the answer.
[You analyze 「Lesser Magic Pouch」.]
The moment I saw that message, my eyes lit up with interest.
‘A Lesser Magic Pouch?’
Wondering if it was what I suspected, I eagerly checked the description Analysis displayed.
『Lesser Magic Pouch』
▶「A pouch that transcends spatial constraints.」
▶「It can hold items up to 10m×10m×10m in size.」
“!!!”
My intuition had been correct.
I never imagined I’d acquire such a treasure here!
Dohyun’s joy was palpable as I hastily thrust my hand inside the pouch, feeling various objects within my grasp. Simultaneously, my Analysis compiled an inventory list of the contents.
『Storage Inventory』
▶「Dwarven Iron Longsword」×12
▶「Dwarven Iron Spear」×8
▶「Dwarven Iron Shield」×4
…(omitted)
▶「Black Gate Iron Ore」×42
“Ohhhhh!”
Analysis possessed such a function as well!
Since the pouch seemed far from full, I promptly gathered all of Talgrin’s equipment—the pieces that would prove most valuable—and deposited them inside.
What an extraordinary windfall!
The Elves from before had mostly left no corpses behind, which had been disappointing, but more importantly, there had been so many pieces of equipment I couldn’t carry that I’d been forced to abandon. How many treasures had I left behind?
Now I wouldn’t have to worry about such constraints.
With that thought, I meticulously gathered everything without leaving a single item behind.
In truth, even without collecting the equipment, I’d already obtained a magical pouch worth 500,000 points, but I carefully accumulated each piece and stored it within the pouch.
‘Hehehehe, shall we head back then?’
Hanalin and Jiyuchan were likely waiting, so I made my way toward them.
I harbored not the slightest doubt that they would have prevailed.
Since I could already perceive their stats, I knew they possessed more than enough strength to overcome their opponents. As I arrived at their location, I encountered another welcome message.
[You have successfully analyzed the stat growth of another individual through 『Analysis』.]
[All stats permanently increase by +1.]
It seemed the two of them had grown once more through that battle.
As I examined the message with satisfaction, another notification appeared.
[Two or more stats have exceeded the level threshold of this Zone.]
[You may now advance to the next Zone.]
[Burden generation in 23:58:12]
‘Already?’
While I’d somewhat anticipated this, I checked my own stats out of curiosity and confirmed that my Agility had surpassed 40.
『Stats』
▶「Strength: 35▶36」
▶「Agility: 39▶40」
▶「Stamina: 29▶30」
▶「Mana: 43▶44」
‘It’s real.’
Seeing that Burden would soon take effect, I glanced over at Jiyuchan and Hanalin to check their stats as well.
So then.
『Jiyuchan』
『Trait: Platinum Sword King [S]』
『Skills』
▶「Swordsmanship [A]」
▶「Sword King’s Intuition [A]」
▶「Mana Manipulation [D]」
▶「Overwhelming Presence [E]」
▶「Ambush [E]」
『Stats』
▶「Strength: 36▶40」
▶「Agility: 28▶30」
▶「Endurance: 27▶32」
▶「Mana: 31▶33」
▶You’re in good condition to rank up.
『Hanalin』
『Trait: Sorceress Supreme [S]』
『Skills』
▶「Ether Heart [S]」
▶「Empress’s Majesty [A]」
▶「Intermediate Elemental Magic [D]」
▶「Intermediate General Magic [D]」
▶「Intermediate Conceptual Magic [D]」
…(More)
『Stats』
▶「Strength: 18▶20」
▶「Agility: 25▶26」
▶「Endurance: 23▶24」
▶「Mana: 38▶40」
▶You’re in good condition to rank up.
Both of them had exceeded 40 in their primary stats—Strength and Mana.
Now I could be certain of it.
Having a single stat exceed 40 was generally considered good enough to rank up, but when two or more stats surpassed 40, the burden began to take its toll.
Looking at cases like Talgrin or Jerpael, whom I’d met before, they had reached 40 in one or more stats but never exceeded it, suggesting that most hunters ranked up once the burden started to accumulate.
Of course, ranking up early when you had the chance wasn’t a bad strategy either.
You could grow rapidly once you moved to the next Zone. In fact, those eager to grow quickly found this approach far superior.
As I pondered rank-ups, Hanalin and Jiyuchan approached me.
“We’ve gathered everything here.”
“There were more equipment pieces than expected, but most of them seem designed for Dwarves, so they’d be difficult for us to use right away. Still, the shortswords look serviceable.”
As Hanalin and Jiyuchan spoke and showed me the equipment, I smiled contentedly before bringing up the matter of rank-ups and pulled something out.
None other than a low-grade magic pouch.
When I showed it to them, both wore expressions of confusion. Like a magician, I opened the pouch’s entrance and began placing all the equipment they’d gathered into it.
At first, they watched with curiosity, but as items continued to vanish into the seemingly bottomless pouch, their eyes widened in astonishment.
“W-Wait!?”
“Is that a magic pouch!?”
“Hehe.”
Both exclaimed in surprise, and I simply laughed in response.
Seeing my reaction, their jaws dropped.
Everyone knew that Dwarves were quite wealthy. Hunters entering the Black Gate wanted equipment that was as durable as possible, and among all available options, Dwarven-crafted items possessed the finest quality.
Items rarely obtained through Dungeons or Monsters were prohibitively expensive, and since no one wanted to use cheap alternatives, Hunters naturally gravitated toward quality Dwarven goods—which meant the Dwarves accumulated Points endlessly.
In fact, the Points I’d just obtained from eliminating Talgrin were a testament to this.
[You have defeated a Villain and acquired the Points they possessed.]
[Points are distributed according to Party Members’ contribution.]
[You have acquired a total of 54,510 Points.]
A staggering fifty thousand Points.
Combined with my existing Points, that brought me to ninety thousand.
Nearly a billion won—I was grinning so widely I was on the verge of laughing outright, and this time even Hanalin and Jiyuchan had to acknowledge the magnitude of our fortune.
“This is absolutely insane.”
“That’s incredible.”
Both wore expressions of delighted bewilderment as they smiled contentedly. We decided to end today’s hunt here as a celebration.
However, as I looked at them, I posed a question.
“But we can all rank up now—what do you think?”
“…Ranking up, huh.”
“Hmm, I suppose the time has come.”
Hanalin and Jiyuchan responded positively, contrary to their previous concerns.
Unless they were fools, they couldn’t help but sense it. In fact, precisely because they possessed considerable talent, they could instinctively gauge their growth rate and the threshold for ranking up.
They were no longer particularly shocked by rapid advancement, and while they harbored some concern about whether ranking up so quickly was wise, neither dwelled on it deeply.
They trusted that I would handle everything appropriately, so they simply resolved to do their best in keeping pace with me.
Once the discussion of ranking up concluded, Hanalin asked a question.
“Should we rank up and leave immediately?”
“That would probably be best, wouldn’t it?”
I was thinking that if we left early again, Han Muyeol might appear, so I was inclined to proceed.
We’d earned plenty of Points, and I could acquire Han Muyeol’s skills.
As I anticipated this, Hanalin spoke with a somewhat concerned expression.
“Will you enter again right away?”
She was asking whether we’d repeat the pattern we’d been following—forming the Party, entering immediately, ranking up, resting for barely a day, then entering again. I shook my head.
While there wasn’t much to do in reality, this time was different.
If I met Han Muyeol and learned his skills, I’d need time to master them, but there was a more concrete reason.
Namely.
“D-rank is where the difficulty gap begins to widen significantly, so wouldn’t it be better to rest sufficiently before entering?”
“Gasp.”
“!!!”
When I said something quite reasonable, Hanalin and Jiyuchan stared at me with startled eyes, and I gave them a narrowed look in return, as if asking what that reaction was about.
Given my behavior up until now, it was certainly surprising.
In any case, after discussing it, I decided on an appropriate timeframe.
“Based on the situation report coming in, let’s take roughly a week off.”
I figured that by then, I’d have adapted to Han Muyeol’s skill.
To be honest, I still hadn’t fully adapted to the Dark King’s speed, so I gave myself that much time. Both Hanalin and Jiyuchan nodded their heads.
They accepted because they thought that much time would allow them both to train diligently.
And so the Dohyun Party organized the situation and returned to the Dormitory.
For the promotion.
Ah, of course, I didn’t forget what needed to be done before that.
“Do you know about Dwarven Realm weapons?”
“What?!”
