Auto Looting Range Too Wide Episode 95

 

Episode 95: Field Boss (1)

 

-You don’t seriously… intend to purchase this, do you?

 

Cardmos asked, glaring at Mincheol.

 

Mincheol answered as if it were obvious.

 

“That’s exactly what I’m thinking.”

 

-What an impious fool I’ve encountered! One cannot have two teachers under heaven!

 

“Why not? I’ve had over ten teachers just going through school.”

 

-What nonsensical drivel are you spouting!

 

Cardmos flew into a rage.

 

But Mincheol had already made up his mind long ago.

 

“Yes, go inside for now. I’ll call you again later.”

 

-This, this knight-destroying…!

 

Mincheol put the Memory Stone into his inventory.

 

Then Cardmos’s voice was cut off abruptly.

 

Only then did Mincheol show a relieved expression.

 

“I thought my ears were going to hurt to death.”

 

Mincheol handed the smartphone back to Kkwaekkwi.

 

And purchased Sihae Yeomhwa’s Memory Stone.

 

【You have purchased ‘Sihae Yeomhwa’s Secret Memory Stone’.】

 

【Owned coins 87 -】 7.>

 

Sihae Yeomhwa’s Memory Stone was different from Cardmos’s.

 

Cardmos’s Memory Stone was truly a crude chunk of rock.

 

In contrast, Sihae Yeomhwa’s was beautiful like a rose.

 

It seemed the form of Memory Stones differed depending on the person.

 

【’Sihae Yeomhwa’s’ Secret Memory Stone】

 

-Grade: Legendary

 

-Description: A Memory Stone containing the memories of Sihae Yeomhwa Wiyeryeong. You can acquire her knowledge each time you clear quests by stages.

 

【Would you like to perform the first Quest of ‘Sihae Yeomhwa’s Secret Memory Stone’?】

 

【If you accept, you will enter ‘Sihae Yeomhwa’s’ memories to proceed with the Quest.】

 

Mincheol hesitated just as he was about to challenge the Quest.

 

“She’s someone so obsessed with revenge that she earned the nickname Sihae Yeomhwa, will she be normal?”

 

Even Cardmos had presented an absurd task, hadn’t he?

 

Moreover, when Mincheol cleared the Quest with Auto Looting, he found it detestable and tried to kill him.

 

“At least the fortunate thing is there’s no warning message…”

 

When challenging Cardmos’s Memory Stone, there was a warning message saying failure meant death.

 

But this Memory Stone had no such text.

 

“Does this mean I won’t die even if I fail?”

 

The possibility was high, but it was hard to readily muster courage.

 

The nickname Sihae Yeomhwa and her background were that frightening.

 

“No, let me trust the system.”

 

As Ursongbarsong said, unless the system permitted it, a Memory Stone’s soul couldn’t harm an Awakened.

 

He had even experienced several times through Cardmos that this wasn’t a lie.

 

“I’ll challenge the Memory Stone.”

 

Mincheol spoke boldly.

 

With a flash of light, Mincheol moved inside the Memory Stone.

 

The place where Mincheol appeared was an outdoor training ground.

 

Next to it stood a magnificent mansion.

 

“Huh? Why is no one here? Shouldn’t Sihae Yeomhwa be here?”

 

“It’s been a long time since a guest visited this place.”

 

A voice came from somewhere.

 

Mincheol looked around. But no one was visible.

 

“Am I hearing things?”

 

“It’s not hearing things! Here, over here!”

 

A hand suddenly popped out from below.

 

Mincheol was startled and stepped back.

 

Only then could he see her. A young girl wearing white martial robes.

 

“You’re just a kid?”

 

“I’m not a kid!”

 

At Mincheol’s muttering, the girl clenched her small fists cutely and got angry.

 

“My name is Wiyeong! My nickname is Sihae Yeomhwa! I’m the owner of this Memory Stone!”

 

* * *

 

Sihae Yeomhwa.

 

One of the ten great masters of the Martial Arts Realm, and among them, one of the top three strongest.

 

At the same time, she was also a madwoman obsessed with revenge.

 

Therefore, Mincheol had prepared thoroughly before entering the Memory Stone.

 

He had resolved not to be surprised no matter what kind of monster appeared.

 

But some young child had appeared claiming to be Sihae Yeomhwa.

 

“Sihae Yeomhwa? Really?”

 

“Really!”

 

The girl crossed her arms and pouted her lips.

 

Being a young child, she just looked adorable.

 

‘She’s Sihae Yeomhwa?’

 

Honestly, it was hard to believe.

 

According to Mincheol’s research, Sihae Yeomhwa was a terrible vengeful spirit.

 

But the only people here were Mincheol and this girl.

 

So he had no choice but to accept it.

 

“Uh, what should I call you? Wiyeong? Sihae Yeomhwa?”

 

“Either is fine. However, from now on I’d like you to speak respectfully to me. For this moment, I am your teacher.”

 

Ahem.

 

Sihae Yeomhwa said, placing both hands on her hips.

 

No matter how he looked at her, she seemed more like a child trying to act like an adult than a martial arts master.

 

“Understood. I’ll change my speech from now on.”

 

“Very good!”

 

“But why do you have the appearance of a young child?”

 

“That’s a secret. Oh, but please don’t feel disappointed. I’m only hiding it for personal reasons.”

 

Looking at her like this, she seemed like a bright girl rather than a vengeful spirit.

 

“Shall we move on to the main point? If you want to learn my martial arts, you must complete a task.”

 

“Do I die if I fail the Quest?”

 

Mincheol asked what he was most curious about.

 

Then Sihae Yeomhwa made a strange expression and said.

 

“No? I just failed the task. Why would I kill someone?”

 

Mincheol was greatly shocked by Sihae Yeomhwa’s answer.

 

It was such a sensible statement that it was hard to believe it came from someone called a vengeful spirit.

 

‘Then what about Cardmos?’

 

Maybe Cardmos was the strange one, and Sihae Yeomhwa was normal?

 

“However, if you fail once, you can never challenge it again. And the Memory Stone will disappear too.”

 

“Disappear?”

 

“It means it will be retrieved back to the Secret Shop. This is something the system handles, so it absolutely cannot be prevented.”

 

While you wouldn’t die, it was quite a harsh condition.

 

If you failed, 80 coins would essentially vanish into thin air.

 

Still, he felt relieved knowing he wouldn’t die.

 

“What’s the task?”

 

“Could you look over there?”

 

Wiyeong pointed to the training ground.

 

In the training ground, three columns stood facing each other.

 

“You need to drop the bell hanging from those columns.”

 

One of the columns had a curved end. A bell was hanging from there.

 

“Drop that bell?”

 

Mincheol approached the columns.

 

They were incredibly tall, easily 10 meters high.

 

“You can use all your unique skills and skills. However, your physical abilities have been adjusted to ordinary human level.”

 

So that’s why his body had felt strangely heavy since earlier.

 

“Any method is fine. You just need to drop the bell somehow.”

 

Mincheol’s eyes sparkled.

 

“Any method at all?”

 

“Yes, it doesn’t matter.”

 

“What if I throw something to hit it?”

 

“Yes, that’s fine.”

 

“What if I use a skill to drop it?”

 

“Anything is perfectly fine.”

 

Just in case, he confirmed several times.

 

Only then did Mincheol activate Auto Looting.

 

【Acquiring ‘Golden Bell’ within 1km radius.】

 

【1 Golden Bell stored in inventory.】

 

“Here.”

 

Mincheol took out the golden bell and held it out to Wiyeong.

 

Wiyeong’s eyes widened like lanterns upon seeing the golden bell.

 

Her already large eyes became even more prominent.

 

Wiyeong looked back and forth between the bell and Mincheol.

 

It was an innocent, childlike reaction, but Mincheol didn’t let his guard down.

 

She might fly into a rage and try to kill him like Cardmos had.

 

“How did you do that?”

 

“It’s my unique skill. I can retrieve objects from far away.”

 

“Wow, woah, woaaah…”

 

Sihae Yeomhwa opened her mouth in a perfect circle, amazed.

 

“I never knew such a unique skill could exist. You really got me good.”

 

Mincheol watched Sihae Yeomhwa’s reaction carefully.

 

She might get angry like Cardmos had.

 

“I feel a bit outsmarted, but a promise is a promise. Please take it.”

 

【You have completed the first Quest of ‘Sihae Yeomhwa’s Secret Memory Stone’!】

 

【You acquire some of ‘Sihae Yeomhwa’s’ techniques and experience!】

 

【You acquire the first skill ‘Black Horn Bullet Form’ of ‘Five Mysteries Flying Swallow Technique’.】

 

Instantly, countless pieces of knowledge flooded into Mincheol’s mind.

 

Mincheol briefly closed his eyes and absorbed Sihae Yeomhwa’s knowledge.

 

Sihae Yeomhwa’s knowledge wasn’t about weapons, but mainly consisted of martial arts techniques.

 

Methods to efficiently dodge attacks, ways to maximize impact, how to deal with weapon-wielding enemies, and so on.

 

After a moment, Mincheol opened his eyes.

 

Sihae Yeomhwa spoke with a smile.

 

“Congratulations. Black Horn Bullet Form is the first technique, but it’s the foundation of Five Mysteries Flying Swallow Technique. You’ll need to practice it diligently.”

 

Perhaps because he’d grown too accustomed to Cardmos.

 

Her genuinely congratulatory attitude felt strange.

 

“Aren’t you angry?”

 

“Me? Why should I be angry?”

 

Sihae Yeomhwa tilted her head and asked back.

 

“You didn’t complete the Quest as intended, and to put it crudely, you got it for free.”

 

“I told you that you could use any method. So why would I be angry at you? If anyone’s at fault, it’s me for not anticipating this situation.”

 

Her extremely reasonable answer almost moved Mincheol to tears.

 

“Since entering the Memory Stone, I’ve received many challenges, but you’re the first person to complete the task.”

 

“Isn’t it easy if any method is allowed? You could just use ranged skills.”

 

“Watch carefully.”

 

Suddenly, Sihae Yeomhwa ran toward the columns.

 

She kicked off the three columns in succession and soared upward.

 

Then she launched several kicks into the air.

 

“…!”

 

Mincheol’s jaw dropped at her agile movements.

 

“If someone tried to drop the bell with ranged skills, I was planning to interfere like that. But I never knew there was a unique skill that could just retrieve items.”

 

Sihae Yeomhwa said with a laugh.

 

“So originally you were supposed to get the bell that way.”

 

“Yes, that’s right. Would you like to try once?”

 

Mincheol looked at the columns again. No matter how he looked at them, they were too high.

 

“It seems difficult.”

 

“Still, give it a try. You won’t die here anyway.”

 

Sihae Yeomhwa urged Mincheol with a subtle voice.

 

Mincheol hesitated for a moment, then ran toward the columns.

 

Like Wiyeong had done, he stepped on the columns in succession and soared upward…

 

“Ugh.”

 

Perhaps because he concentrated too hard.

 

The height Mincheol reached far exceeded the columns.

 

When there were no more columns to step on, Mincheol began to fall.

 

Mincheol landed while minimizing the impact as much as possible.

 

“Wow, that’s not easy. You’re truly one of the three greatest masters under heaven.”

 

Mincheol spoke sincerely.

 

But no response came.

 

Mincheol felt something was strange and turned to look at Sihae Yeomhwa.

 

“…”

 

Sihae Yeomhwa was frozen with her eyes wide open.

 

It was an even more intense reaction than when Mincheol had shown off Auto Looting.

 

“…How did you do that?”

 

“What do you mean?”

 

“How did you climb the column… Did you perhaps do similar exercises separately?”

 

“Uh… I just followed what you showed me.”

 

“That’s complete nonsense….”

 

Sihae Yeomhwa stopped mid-sentence and closed her mouth.

 

“…It seems like the Ohyeonbiyeongak has found its proper master.”

 

Soon she extended her hand to Mincheol and said.

 

“Please take care of me from now on.”
