Episode 56

 

Chapter 56: Golden Sword? (3)

 

Golden Sword Saint?

 

He had heard of Platinum Sword Saint, but Golden Sword Saint? Thinking he might have been mistaken, Dohyun opened Jiyuchan’s status window just to be sure.

 

Then.

 

‘Right?’

 

Analysis reassured him that Dohyun hadn’t seen it wrong.

 

Then what exactly was this Golden Sword Saint? When Dohyun wanted to see more details, Analysis provided a more detailed explanation.

 

‘Crazy.’

 

Seeing that, Dohyun scratched his head at this coincidental discovery.

 

He didn’t know who the first Platinum Sword Saint Cheonryuhwi that Analysis told him about was, but he figured it was probably one of the humans who had been connected to the Black Gate first.

 

But why would humanity with such a powerful swordsmanship family walk the path to destruction?

 

Dohyun thought that far and shook his head.

 

He would find out later when he went home and read the history textbooks.

 

Without thinking deeply about it, he first selected that, then looked around to see if there was something for Hanalin too. Maybe there would be something about spirit summoning circles? While thinking that, he was able to discover something else strange.

 

Then he struck it lucky.

 

Unfortunately it wasn’t related to spirits, but it was still related to magic.

 

Dohyun saw that it dealt with mental intention, and when he expanded the detailed explanation to look, he was certain.

 

It was a method to make magic even more powerful.

 

‘When I asked before, didn’t they say you need points to learn advanced magic?’

 

Intermediate magic was D-rank and advanced magic started from C-rank, so that made sense.

 

Even D-rank Hunters could practically be called superhuman. They couldn’t use sword energy or aura blades that appeared in martial arts novels or fantasy novels, but they could use sword qi, which was the stage right before that.

 

In fact, even right now, couldn’t Dohyun emit sword qi?

 

That’s why from D-rank onwards, considerable gaps would emerge even within the same rank.

 

By ordinary people’s standards, D-rank could practically be considered superhuman.

 

You shouldn’t dismiss it just because it’s D.

 

Then how excellent would the advanced C-rank be?

 

He had wandered off topic for a moment, but anyway, Hanalin was looking for ways to utilize intermediate magic since advanced magic was expensive, and he had found a textbook that described one of those methods.

 

‘I really didn’t expect to find it.’

 

Especially while mental intention was something he could expect to find, obtaining the Golden Sword could truly be called heavenly luck.

 

Moreover, wasn’t this a situation where he had received permission from Analysis-nim-nim-nim that both would be good for Dohyun to learn? If he just let this slip by, he’d be beyond a fool to an incomprehensible existence.

 

After purchasing the Golden Sword textbook and the mental intention textbook, Dohyun naturally paid points to learn both.

 

At half the discounted price since he had the textbooks.

 

He knew they weren’t ordinary skills, but he didn’t expect them to appear this way.

 

Wondering if another window besides the skill window would be created, he checked, but that wasn’t the case.

 

‘That’s not it.’

 

Anyway, since he had obtained them, he didn’t think much about it.

 

As the Golden Sword techniques and various basic knowledge about swordsmanship floated up in his mind, Dohyun couldn’t help but chuckle.

 

This meant there were other swordsmanship styles besides this one.

 

‘Isn’t there something like Heavenly Demon Sword Technique?’

 

If there was, he’d learn it right away.

 

But what were the odds of something like that being around in a place like this? He knew very well that obtaining even the Golden Sword and mental intention magic was heavenly luck.

 

Still, perhaps out of greed, Dohyun thoroughly searched for anything else before confirming there was nothing more and sighing in disappointment.

 

Watching Dohyun search through everything like hunting for lice even after picking out two new books, Jiyuchan and Hanalin had no choice but to give up their expectations.

 

Well, they knew it didn’t make sense to find anything here, so they weren’t too disappointed.

 

While those two were feeling disappointed, he handed the textbooks containing the Golden Sword and mental intention magic to Jiyuchan and Hanalin respectively.

 

When the two who received the textbooks looked at Dohyun in surprise, Dohyun explained.

 

“This is a textbook containing swordsmanship called Golden Sword, and this is a textbook written about how to infuse magic with mental intention.”

 

“Wh, what!?”

 

“Go, Golden Sword?”

 

Both were surprised by Dohyun’s words and looked at him, and Dohyun explained step by step.

 

He explained that Golden Sword was one of the basic swordsmanship styles, a stability-focused solid swordsmanship learned before mastering considerably excellent swordsmanship.

 

Going a bit further, when he said it was like the concept of basic martial arts from major sects in martial arts novels, Jiyuchan, who seemed to have read some martial arts novels, immediately reacted.

 

“You mean like Six Harmony Sword Technique!?”

 

“Oh, we’re on the same wavelength?”

 

“…???”

 

Unlike Jiyuchan and Dohyun who were on the same wavelength, seeing Hanalin’s blank expression as if asking what that was, Dohyun chuckled and explained the basics of mental intention magic.

 

He said it was a method of infusing one’s mental intention, that is, will, into magic to make it more powerful, and told her that this contained hints for being able to infuse imagery into magic.

 

He was about to explain that it was like imagery magic from fantasy magic, but Hanalin could understand immediately without going that far.

 

“I understand.”

 

“Ah.”

 

Dohyun was a bit dejected at being cut off while trying to explain more, but his expression cleared at Hanalin and Jiyuchan’s subsequent words.

 

“Thank you so much.”

 

“Really, thank you.”

 

When both sincerely thanked him, Dohyun also nodded while feeling some inexplicable pride.

 

Since they were companions, he could look out for them this much. Of course, Dohyun had learned everything too, so there was no loss at all. He wondered if there were more items like that, but they were all too expensive and useless, so he had no choice but to give up on buying anything at the department store.

 

Still, since wandering around shopping for a long time had been quite fun, they all came out of the department store with pleased expressions.

 

As they came out, the dusky night sky greeted them.

 

“Time has already gotten this late.”

 

They had met a little after lunch, and now it was already evening.

 

Looking at the time, it was past dinner and almost close to night.

 

To think they had been shopping without noticing time pass like this.

 

“That’s right. I didn’t notice time passing.”

 

“It was more fun than I thought.”

 

“Really.”

 

“Really? Then that’s a relief.”

 

Hearing the two say that made Dohyun feel proud too.

 

Though he hadn’t done any business, his skills were quite good, so Dohyun was satisfied as well. Since it had become night, he was getting a bit hungry, so Dohyun rubbed his stomach and muttered.

 

“No wonder I’m hungry. I’m going to eat nearby, what about you two?”

 

When Dohyun said that, both of them simultaneously turned their heads toward Dohyun and answered.

 

“Let’s eat together.”

 

“Let’s eat together.”

 

Since both said it at the same time, Dohyun chuckled and thought they got along well, suggesting they all eat together.

 

So for dinner, they headed to a Korean BBQ restaurant that wouldn’t divide opinions.

 

Perhaps because it was a weeknight, there weren’t that many customers.

 

Though it was located in downtown Seoul, it wasn’t flashy but rather had a simple appearance. Perhaps that’s why Dohyun’s party all thought it looked quite good as they entered.

 

The chairs were uncomfortable cylindrical stools and the tables were round iron plates, but the quiet atmosphere perfectly reflected the feeling that this is how Korean BBQ restaurants should be.

 

Seeing that atmosphere, Dohyun muttered as if feeling nostalgic.

 

“It’s been a while since I’ve been to a place like this.”

 

He used to come fairly often during college, but thinking about it, this seemed to be his first time at a Korean BBQ restaurant like this since graduating.

 

When Dohyun said that, Jiyuchan also nodded as if agreeing.

 

“I think I came fairly often during college.”

 

“Exactly.”

 

When Dohyun and Jiyuchan said that, Hanalin spoke as if a bit embarrassed.

 

“This is my first time eating pork belly at a place like this.”

 

“Huh?”

 

“…Is that even possible?”

 

When Dohyun and Jiyuchan reacted like that, Hanalin’s ears turned slightly red as she whispered.

 

“I, I was studying abroad and awakened, then just came back…”

 

“Oh ho? So you were a rich family’s daughter.”

 

“Not everyone who studies abroad is from a rich family, but she seems to be the real deal.”

 

“D, don’t tease me.”

 

Watching the embarrassed Hanalin, they laughed heartily and then properly ate the pork belly that came out along with kimchi and bean sprouts on the grill.

 

After finishing such a wonderfully delicious company dinner, the three parted ways.

 

It had been a very rewarding day.

 

Dohyun thought this as he headed home.

 

‘Tomorrow I absolutely have to rest at home.’

 

He’d been having such busy days lately that he needed to rest a bit.

 

When Dohyun went home and woke up after sleeping soundly, his party’s group chat was blazing with messages going off like crazy.

 

‘What’s this?’

 

Wondering if some urgent matter had occurred, he checked.

 

[Jiyuchan: Dohyun, I came to the Association to pay points to interpret this, but they’re saying the point payment is 3 million points?]

 

[Hanalin: You too, Yuchan oppa? They’re telling me 3 million points too? What should we do?]

 

“…Ah.”

 

Seeing those two messages, Dohyun thought that he wouldn’t be able to rest comfortably today either, and rubbed his face with his bare hands before sending a message.

 

[I’ll be right there.]

 

After sending that message, Dohyun thought.

 

‘Weren’t those guys geniuses?’

 

Dohyun tilted his head, noticing that lately the number of times they relied on him like this had particularly increased, but well, good things are good things, right?

 

Anyway, Dohyun also needed to learn and adapt through direct physical experience, so teaching them wasn’t particularly a loss. He went to the bathroom to wash up and then changed clothes.

 

And he got into a taxi heading to the Association.

 

While he was at it, he might as well.

 

‘I should try adapting to the Guardian’s Body too.’
