Chapter 47
[Mana increases by +1!]
[Mana increases by +1!]
[Divine Power increases by +1!]
[Divine Power increases by +1!]
The result of using all the secret medicines.
Mana increased by an additional 107, and Divine Power increased by an additional 108.
[Detailed Stats]
-Strength : 101(+10) -> 111
-Agility : 101(+12) -> 113
-Stamina : 101(+12) -> 113
-Defense : 101(+10) -> 111
-Wisdom : 101(+10) -> 111
-Mana : 214(+21) -> 235
-Divine Power : 216(+21) -> 237
-Mental Power : 91(+12) -> 103
Even though Jung Hoon’s level was only 91, his Mana and Divine Power stats had exceeded 200.
‘This is really amazing.’
Since Richel couldn’t create circles, no circles were added separately.
Even Jung Hoon before his regression only had one circle at most.
Even with just one circle, he had used his massive mana as a foundation to create Magic Missiles that rivaled high circles and used them in combination, so he had no greed for circles.
‘Rather than moving to create circles, it’s much more efficient to walk the path I’ve already walked.’
And circles and magic would naturally increase later.
Jung Hoon planned to steal what the mages had discovered.
‘Then how should I use the bonus stats?’
Currently unused stats: 100.
Since he had achieved the Achievement, there was no reason to keep them unused any longer.
‘Mana and Divine Power are more than sufficient – they’re overflowing.’
With this much, there shouldn’t be any shortage of Mana or Divine Power for a while.
Jung Hoon didn’t even hesitate and invested 25 points each into Strength, Agility, Stamina, and Defense.
“…Incredible.”
Sander, who had been watching, couldn’t help but be amazed.
He didn’t know how much stronger the outsider before him had become, but to digest all those secret medicines without missing a single one.
And he felt a bit bitter.
Even so, even though he had solved the secret of the book that had been carefully preserved in the Edenhark Magic Tower, to not give him even a single drop…
Wouldn’t people usually offer to share a little, even if just as empty words?
He had even lent him the Training Room.
“Thank you.”
Jung Hoon stood up from his seat and expressed his gratitude to him.
“Ahem… it’s fine. But isn’t there even one secret medicine left? Not even this much?”
“No.”
“I see…”
Sander’s face was full of regret.
“Instead, I’ll give you the research journal.”
It was called a research journal.
In reality, it was data that Richel had left behind in diary format.
Inside, the method for making secret medicines wasn’t written exactly, but the journal itself would be valuable data.
Knowing its worth, Sander readily nodded his head.
“Thank you.”
An exclamation mark appeared above his head.
[Quest completed.]
[Sander acknowledges ‘Hoon’.]
[Sander’s favorability increases greatly.]
As soon as the quest was completed, a question mark newly appeared.
[Hidden Quest : Edenhark Lord’s Castle (1/2)]
-Restriction : User who received Sander’s recommendation
-Reward : ? (Reward determined by completion rate.)
-Description : There is one troublesome matter at Edenhark Lord’s Castle. Visit the Lord’s Castle and listen to the lord’s concerns.
Edenhark also had various quests.
And you could obtain various rewards, sometimes even rare rewards.
However, the Lord’s Castle quest was basically a quest that didn’t appear.
Lewis Verdant was the first to qualify to perform it.
“If it’s alright, could you go to the Lord’s Castle? I’m sure you can solve the Lord’s Castle’s troublesome matter!”
Lewis Verdant hadn’t simply obtained secret medicines.
He had achieved brilliant growth through this chain quest as well.
* * *
Edenhark Lord’s Castle.
However, Jung Hoon didn’t head straight to the Lord’s Castle and returned to the Village instead.
It was to perform the general quests given by the Village NPCs.
‘If I go right away, I won’t be able to receive the highest level of rewards.’
From the moment he reached level 80, Jung Hoon had met the conditions to move on to the next village.
Of course, since he had jumped from level 51 by relying on secret medicine, he had practically not performed any of Edenhark’s village quests at all.
‘Ha, I do regret going to the Lord’s Castle quest with such joy the moment I received it. If I had performed the village quests first, the rewards would have been a bit better.’
Lord’s Castle quests can have bonuses or penalties in rewards depending on the trust level with the village NPC residents.
If he went in this current state, it would obviously be impossible to receive the rewards he wanted.
Jung Hoon opened his closed whispers.
[Whisper/Minzi -> Hoon : Hi~ What are you doing right now?]
[Whisper/zl존하진12 -> 훈: Hey! This crazy bastard always goes silent whenever something happens ㅡㅡ]
There were exactly 2 friends registered in New World.
Jung Hoon sent a casual reply to Ha Jin and then sent a response to Yeo Min Ji.
[Whisper/Hoon -> Minzi : Hi]
[Whisper/Minzi -> Hoon : Wow… Is it real that you replied after 13 hours?]
[Whisper/Hoon -> Minzi : Why did you whisper me?]
[Whisper/Minzi -> Hoon : I wanted us to become closer.]
[Whisper/Hoon -> Minzi : You want to become closer?]
[Whisper/Minzi -> Hoon : Yes. Let’s be friends.]
* * *
Jung Hoon changed his evaluation of Yeo Min Ji before long.
Wow, she’s really an amazing woman.
“I just need to carry this over there, right?”
Yeo Min Ji was currently carrying items from the general store warehouse together with Jung Hoon.
“…You don’t really need to help me.”
“Huh? I’m also doing village quests, is there some problem?”
When Jung Hoon said he was performing village quests, she immediately came over and was performing quests like this.
Since she was also from Aihen, her Edenhark village quests were completely uncleared. Thanks to that, they could perform them together.
But the problem was that she was drawing too much attention from the surroundings.
“Yeo Min Ji?”
“Huh? Why is a Hoyeong executive moving boxes in Edenhark?”
“You see it too, right? My eyes aren’t wrong, are they?”
The users who were stationed in Edenhark were staring at Yeo Min Ji’s actions with wide eyes.
Nevertheless, Yeo Min Ji seemed accustomed to it and paid no attention to them at all.
‘She’s trying to find out about the fist technique somehow.’
Her intentions were truly easy to read.
Look.
Even while putting down luggage, wasn’t she constantly looking for opportunities to strike up a conversation?
“Oops!”
At that moment, Yeo Min Ji threw a punch toward Jung Hoon.
Of course, Jung Hoon stepped away to avoid the punch this time as well.
“…”
When he looked at her with incredulous eyes, Yeo Min Ji coughed awkwardly with a reddened face.
“Sorry! The floor was a bit slippery so my fist went out while I was falling.”
“That was obviously intentional. Don’t tell me you wanted me to counterattack?”
No matter how unreasonable someone is, it’s not easy to have such an accident.
“…It’s not like that.”
Jung Hoon let out a low sigh at her appearance of playing dumb and avoiding his gaze.
“Anyway, since we’re in the middle of a quest, please don’t interfere.”
“Yes…”
Perhaps embarrassed, she no longer interfered with Jung Hoon.
Only after all the work was finished did Jung Hoon leave the warehouse.
Yeo Min Ji followed behind him.
Even when proceeding with the next inn quest, and when proceeding with the Market Street quest.
She stuck with Jung Hoon all day long.
Doesn’t she ever get tired?
“Thank you so much!”
[You have completed the quest.]
[You have gained 3,000 Exp.]
While completing quests, she silently proceeded with quests together with Jung Hoon.
During that time, as if something occurred to her, Yeo Min Ji approached and spoke up.
“Oh, more than that, I heard there’s going to be a 2nd job advancement event.”
Jung Hoon’s head turned toward Yeo Min Ji.
“You mean an event?”
“Yes. New World posted an announcement, didn’t you see it?”
“I did see it.”
New World event.
It was an event targeting users who had completed their 1st job advancement and were facing their 2nd job advancement.
‘This is also an event I must participate in.’
[If you’re aiming for a higher grade in class advancement, you must secure it in the 2nd class advancement.]
-Depending on what results you get in the 2nd class advancement, you can rise to Rare, Epic, or Unique, but if you proceed with a common grade advancement, there’s a very high probability you’ll remain at common grade in the 3rd~4th advancements too
└This is really true.
└Damn, thinking about the 3 months I wasted just on 2nd class advancement still pisses me off.
└Definitely advance to Rare… it really changes your future.
└Then what’s the point ㅠㅠ Most of them can’t even make it to rare and just drop down.
└I also got common grade advancement…
└Me too ㅠㅠ
The 2nd class advancement where over 70% fail to achieve Rare grade advancement despite challenging it boldly.
New World planned an event to help with these aspects.
That was the 2nd Class Advancement Event.
Starting with this event, it would be held annually, and during the event period, users who achieved Rare grade or higher advancement would appear in large numbers.
The reason was that it proceeded purely through relative evaluation, not by meeting Quest conditions.
Therefore, newbies who entered late flocked to such events, making the competition extremely fierce.
“Are you going to participate in the event?”
Yeo Min Ji asked with sparkling eyes.
“Why? Want to watch from close by?”
“Would that be okay?!”
“Do as you please.”
Jung Hoon chuckled.
Anyway, spectating this event wouldn’t be possible.
Not knowing the future, her face became full of anticipation.
“Got it! Then could you also give me your number?”
“My number?”
* * *
Yeo Min Ji returned to the guild 3 hours later.
Her face upon return was beaming with joy.
“You’re back?”
Park In Tae, who was about to log out after finishing his work, greeted her.
“Yes. I even got his number.”
“His number?”
Park In Tae frowned.
He had thought she would definitely fail and return, seeing her back as she left boldly saying she would become friends.
Wasn’t Yeo Min Ji somewhat distant from being sociable in the first place?
While she wasn’t introverted, being immersed in Fist Technique, he thought it would be quite difficult to become friends with someone she had only met once.
‘Is it her face?’
There’s a saying that face is plausibility.
Perhaps that guy was enchanted by Yeo Min Ji’s beauty and gave her his number.
“Yes. With this, I think we can become a bit closer.”
“…Um, Miss. Could I accompany you next time?”
“No. If we go together, the other person might feel uncomfortable.”
“Un, uncomfortable…”
Park In Tae’s face showed hurt at her words.
* * *
One week.
During that time, Jung Hoon did his best to perform village Quests.
Now it was time to head to the Lord’s Castle.
===
[New World Event Notice!]
-Hello! This is the New World Development Team.
First, we’re posting this notice to share new information with our users!
New World is doing its best to provide various benefits for users.
This is to prepare for the new worlds that will open in the future.
Therefore, the New World Development Team is planning to hold an event for users.
[2nd Class Advancement Big Event]
To participate in the event, you must be level 80 or above and about to undergo 2nd class advancement. Users who don’t meet the conditions cannot participate in the event.
Users who achieve excellent results in the event will be able to undergo higher grade class advancement, so please make sure to seize this opportunity.
-New World Development Team
===
An event that would be held in just two weeks.
Jung Hoon definitely planned to participate in this event.
New World tried to provide as much support as possible to users before the world became reality.
That support included this event as well.
So if he ranked in the upper tiers, he would receive corresponding rewards.
“Halt.”
In front of the Lord’s Castle, two knights were guarding the gate.
===
[NPC Information]
-Nickname: Bark
-Level: 100
-Class: Official Knight (2nd Class)
===
[NPC Information]
-Nickname: Will
-Level: 100
-Class: Official Knight (2nd Class)
===
Befitting the gatekeepers of the Lord’s Castle, both NPCs were level 100.
They were even knights who had received official knight titles.
A Question Mark was floating above his head.
This meant he had met the requirements to proceed with the Lord’s Castle entrance quest while progressing through the Village Quest.
Of course, Jung Hoon could pass.
When he took out Sander’s Letter of Recommendation from his Inventory and presented it, the Question Mark above their heads disappeared.
“Ah, you have a Letter of Recommendation.”
“Wait a moment.”
Bark stayed at his post, and Will went inside the Lord’s Castle.
Soon after, Will returned and handed back the Letter of Recommendation.
“It doesn’t seem to be a forgery. You may enter.”
“Yes.”
Since permission had been granted from inside, they had no justification to stop Jung Hoon.
Having gained free passage all the way to the interior of the Lord’s Castle, Jung Hoon followed the butler’s guidance and entered the Reception Room.
In the seat of honor in the Reception Room sat a middle-aged man who appeared to be in his late forties.
===
[NPC Information]
-Nickname: Juan
-Level: 100
-Class: Lord of Edenhark (Viscount)
===
The Lord of Edenhark with the title of Viscount.
And above his head, a red Exclamation Mark was blinking.
