Episode 217.
JinTube.
Since JinTube uploaded shorts and long-form videos four times a week, subscribers had their notifications set and were waiting for new content.
Especially after a few preview clips from Underworld crafting videos—which appeared to be part of a Netflix three-part special—uploaded, interest in JinTube surged even further in the community.
-JinTube subscribers already passed 4 million.
-At this rate it’ll hit 10 million.
-It hasn’t even been around that long and it’s already at 4 million.
-The crafting videos have been so helpful. I’m seeing firsthand what top-tier crafting looks like.
Ding!
Just then, a shorts video uploaded to JinTube.
The video was far shorter than a typical shorts clip.
Clang!
The background in the video was a blacksmith’s forge.
Jin-woo bringing down a hammer.
-??????
-???????? What’s this?
-That’s Peran, isn’t it??
-So Peran and Jin-woo are Hammering together right now?
-An exchange?
-A crafting duel?
-No way.
It was Peran.
Because no one had imagined Peran would show up, the reaction was intense.
-I was wondering who caught him.
-Now it makes sense.
The community began to buzz with the uploaded shorts.
-Could it be that Jin-woo put a leash on that crazy Peran??
-It seems like that from the context.
-Wow.
-I was wondering who would catch Peran.
-It was Jin-woo.
-Jin-woo caught him!
-But how on earth did he do it?
-Peran would craft really aggressively. A lot of people have refused duels because that style is too demanding.
Peran was exceptionally skilled, but he was particularly strong in this kind of aggressive dueling style.
It was thanks to the skill he possessed—Option Transference—and his natural talent.
-Jin-woo caught that?
-How?
-I really want to see the full video.
-The shorts are too short!
-Well, that’s what shorts are.
People began to build enormous anticipation.
Everyone was eager to see how the troublemaking Peran—who had been defeating rankers in the crafting community—had been made humble.
How exactly Jin-woo had beaten him.
Whirr. Whirr. Whirrrrrr.
The shorts’ view count skyrocketed.
-[10 million views]
Exactly one hour after posting.
The shorts video had reached 10 million views.
-When does the full video come out!
Everyone was desperately waiting for the full video to drop.

While JinTube and SharkNet communities were abuzz with talk of Jin-woo.
A video uploaded to MiTube.
-Caught Hydra with overwhelming gear WITH. Jin-woo
The title was ordinary, but people were quite excited at the mention of Hydra, a Tyrant-Tier Monster.
Moreover, the phrase “with Jin-woo” caught people’s attention.
-A Tyrant-Tier Monster hunt video? Who’s this?
-Their connections are insane.
-Could they have gotten Jin-woo on the show?
-The “with Jin-woo” part seems like clickbait.
-Huntsman isn’t a sensationalist streamer, so it could be real.
-Or maybe Jin-woo’s gear?
The channel that uploaded was Huntsman’s, which had 2 million subscribers.
Huntsman was a MiTube creator who either featured various hunter users in hunting videos or took hunters along for unique and entertaining content.
-Announcement]] The ranker we’ve newly brought on is probably someone you’ve all been hoping for. And that very person came to us with something incredible.
A notice had been posted to Huntsman’s channel.
It was a notice saying the newly uploaded video was going to be huge.
Of course, Huntsman’s videos typically had high view counts, so people naturally thought there was just some hype mixed in.
-He was talking about something big coming days ago.
-This must be it.
-Who could it be! I’m so curious.
-Comet maybe?
Everyone clicked the video out of curiosity.
-Oh!
-Tehent?
-Recruiting Tehent must have been really difficult.
-The lonely tiger.
-He doesn’t join guilds and enjoys solo play. How did you recruit him?
-It’s the Huntsman channel.
Tehent was a fairly famous hunter user.
It was Tehent who survived in the fierce hunter rankings each time and hunted Named Monsters.
His rival Comet had joined a Guild and received substantial support to handle Named Monsters, but Tehent was delivering tremendous performance on his own.
Because of these accomplishments, Tehent had quite a few fans.
There was always a certain romance to solo play.
-I’ll be going to hunt Hydra with Tehent! I’ll film and Tehent will hunt! As you all know, Tehent’s signature is.
Huntsman, the MiTuber in the video, spoke with a smile.
-Solo play!
However, Hydra was a Named Monster that made solo hunting impossible.
-How can he hunt Hydra alone?
-Even Tehent can’t do that.
-Huntsman’s helping though, right?
-Seems like it’s only solo in name.
-Is Jin-woo maybe coming?
Tehent in the video picked up a piece of equipment.
It was a Harpoon.
-For those who thought the title was clickbait—it’s real. This is a full custom hunting gear that Tehent personally commissioned.
The equipment Tehent held was Jin-woo’s gear.
-Wow.
-Wow!!!!
-It was real.
-How’d you even get that.
-But full custom? Full custom?
-Is Jin-woo taking full custom orders now?
-Insane.
After the Auction House, now the full custom market too.
If Jin-woo entered that market, it was clear it would be shaken severely.
Tehent, holding the Harpoon, stood before Hydra.
Hydra, with its nine heads, possessed a different attribute for each head.
It was a high-difficulty monster that could only be hunted if all heads were severed simultaneously.
-A red Hydra.
-At least it’s not a golden Hydra, so it looks doable.
-I don’t think anyone’s ever solo hunted a red Hydra before.
Tehent stood before the crimson Hydra.
After Huntsman discreetly stepped back, he filmed Tehent and Hydra.
-As I said, we’re doing the Hydra hunt as Tehent’s solo play.
And Tehent’s hunt began.
Whoosh.
The Harpoon gleamed in his hand.
Screech!
Holding the Harpoon, Tehent was a top ranker hunter incarnate.
-Wow.
-Wow…….
-Tehent’s movements are incredible…… but what about that Harpoon taking all those hits?
-When the Stone Hydra’s Stone Break came flying, that Harpoon’s durability should’ve taken a hit. But it’s fine. Check 15:29 here—it’s insane;;.
-18:30 ?? That doesn’t make sense either?
The quality of the Harpoon Tehent held was unreal.
-What’s going on here??
-Why isn’t the Harpoon breaking.
-Is this really made by Jin-woo……?
-Is he actually going to hunt Hydra?
Everyone expected Tehent wouldn’t be able to hunt Hydra solo.
But contrary to expectations, Tehent was pressing Hydra with remarkable steadiness.
Crack-crack-crack!
Then the Harpoon spun and pierced through the Hydra’s necks sideways.
-Insane.
-All nine heads pierced at once.
-If that’s the case.
Hydra collapsed forward with a shriek.
Thud!
-Did everyone see that? Tehent has successfully solo hunted Hydra with Jin-woo’s gear!
This was the moment first place was essentially decided.
It was an achievement no one had accomplished until now.
In this moment, Tehent surpassed his rival Comet and claimed first place.
Instantly, while some users cheered at the sight and were glad the rankings had shifted, other users felt traumatized.
They were users from Eternal Sunshine.
“Ah……!”
Jin-woo’s initials glowed clearly.
Eternal Sunshine had one rule.
“Again…… again!?”
Rankings were shifting.
“King maker…….”
To get into the rankings, Jin’s gear was absolutely necessary.
Whoever had the better Jin gear took first place.
That was the rule.
The reason was simple: the equipment of countless craftsmen from that time couldn’t surpass Jin’s gear.
“Is this starting again.”
Anyone from Eternal Sunshine would know.
“But somehow…… this feels good……?”
Currently, NewGen had Named Monsters from numerous games entering.
“The Named Monsters from Eternal Sunshine are all bowing their heads now.”
There were few Eternal Sunshine users in the current top ranker positions.
In crafting? Eternal Sunshine users couldn’t even introduce themselves anymore.
Starlight, InClassic, Pendent.
All the renowned top-tier crafting rankers were from other games, and the once-notable Eternal Sunshine rankers were losing their shine.
“Crafting Han U-mul was our hope.”
Crafting Han U-mul, an Eternal Sunshine crafting ranker.
After his fall, Eternal Sunshine had been disrespected. Being from Eternal Sunshine often meant not being recognized.
In such circumstances, Jin’s emergence brought a sense of stability to Eternal Sunshine users.
“We had it too.”
Anchovy Stir-fry, once Eternal Sunshine’s Named tank, clenched his fist.
“We had top class too.”
Just not yet begun.
“As long as Jin holds on, Eternal Sunshine isn’t over. Our pride remains.”
Jin was Eternal Sunshine itself.
* * *
Chanran Workshop Street, Unit 3B-2.
A building stood there.
Made of red brick, the moment Jin-woo saw the Workshop, he couldn’t help but smile.
“Bought it faster than I thought.”
Just as in Eternal Sunshine, this building purchase content was quite challenging.
“It’s the same as reality. Buying a building isn’t easy.”
Upon entering the Workshop, an alert immediately appeared.
Ding!
-Congratulations!
-Please set a name for the building!
He needed to decide on a building name.
In Eternal Sunshine, Jin-woo’s Workshop name was the same as his game nickname.
Workshop, Jin.
‘It was my nickname back then.’
At the same time, it carried the meaning of a place where authentic goods were sold.
“Hmm.”
But since he’d changed his nickname to his real name, he wanted to create a new Workshop name as well.
“Back then, what I could make was limited.”
In NewGen it was different.
“Here I can make anything.”
Really, absolutely anything.
Everything under heaven could be crafted.
“All Things.”
The Workshop name came easily once he thought of it.
A Workshop where anything could be made and any crafting request could be accepted.
-Workshop, All Things.
-Will you proceed with this name?
Swooosh!
The moment Jin-woo nodded, the building name was set.
The letters “All Things” were engraved on the Workshop’s sign, which had been blank white.
“Not a bad name.”
-Check the building information and customize the building as desired!
“Check building.”
Jin-woo immediately checked the building.
-Single-floor Workshop, [All Things]
Master Blacksmith: Jin-woo
Name: All Things
Grade: [Beginner Workshop]
Location: Chanran Workshop Street, Unit 3B-2
Equipment: X
Employees: X

It matched the building information he’d confirmed with the Royal Real Estate Management Bureau. The only difference was that since he’d now set a name, the building information displayed it.
“Filling this empty space should come first.”
Jin-woo wanted to do his first crafting at the All Things Workshop quickly.
“Let me get what I can through Oson’s Workshop.”
Knock-knock.
Just then, someone knocked on the Workshop door.
‘Already someone’s come?’
When Jin-woo gestured, the Workshop door opened.
“Who are you?”
And standing there was.
“We are…….”
