Part 4 SP

Jihoo was lost in thought for a moment.

You can raise one magic stat with 50 SP. Later on, as your stats go up, you’ll need more SP.

‘Stats are not very important.’

It still is.

Because Jihoo is not a hunter, he doesn’t have to use a lot of magic. If you invest 50SP in [Old Bleeding Fang] now, you can sell it for twice as much.

“He’s a real cheat kid.”

Jihoo decided to save the settings.

It was a bit dizzy, but tolerable.

It was then.

smart-

I turned my attention to the knocking sound.

Standing there was a single hunter with short brown hair and a dagger at his waist. Hardened blood was sticking to it, which didn’t go well with his white face, and he was wearing faded leather armor.

“You are diligent today.”

“What are you saying? Are you climbing today?”

“Nogada on the 5th floor.”

“Are you going to the desert floor? They say it’s incredibly difficult there.”

“That’s right, I’m going to have a hard time. What, no new artifacts?”

Her name is Heeyeon Lee.

As a B-class hunter with a level 4 weapon, he has been climbing the tower of [Indomitable Tower] for 10 years. When Shin Ji-hoo learned to appraise artifacts under her father, she climbed the tower with her brother.

And now both have no families.

These days, this is not a fault, nor is it a particularly sad story. It was an era where there were so many war orphans.

Is it because of that?

The two were very close.

I haven’t felt awkward watching it in 4 years, and I’ve been watching it every day since a week ago. It’s because Lee Hee-yeon is almost going to work here.

“Artifacts… … .”

“doesn’t exist?”

“There is, but would you like to see this?”

Jihoo Shin thought for a moment.

can i show you this

Level 4 can be seen as a level of power that is only intermediate among all hunters.

But it’s grade B.

That means she’s a veteran who has been steadily building her performance for 10 years, and it also means that she can’t find an artifact that suits her in a small general store like this.

Weapons, Armor, and Trinkets.

Even emergency potions and scrolls.

Even for consumables, the only reason she came here was that it was an old friend’s shop.

Briefly,

‘I’m afraid I’ll buy something I don’t need because of affection.’

But I thought this would be fine. Jihoo handed over the dagger that had just been modified by setting intervention.

After all, it is her main armament.

『Bleeding Fang [Rare – Blood/Darkness] (Lv. 03)』

She looked back and forth between the dagger and the appraisal, and was startled as if her eyeballs would pop out.

“… … what, what this! Where did you get this! Does it get stronger with age? Isn’t this almost a growth type?”

“It won’t be that much, because you have to spend decades to have a ‘history’. Still, not getting old is a big plus. Thanks to that, [Self-Repair] is also attached to it. Will it be easy to manage?”

“Hey, that’s great! How much, 200 million years?”

Jihoo Shin scratched his head.

The original price was around 85 million won, but now you can get 200 million won. If you go to the auction house and stay longer, you can get more.

However, I was planning to spend money and time on [production] as well as restoration in the future, so it’s good to have cash right now.

The auction house should have plenty of time.

“But will you need it? You already have two rare grade daggers.”

“Still, you’re vampiric.”

“Of course, it’s not about recovering from trauma, it’s about recovering physical strength. That means we can hunt a little longer.”

“Traumatic recovery is a potion. [History] It’s not a grade thing, and healing is unforgiving. Especially, how important is physical strength on the 5th floor. sell this to me! huh? really. I can’t pay in a lump sum, but I pay in a month? really!”

“no way.”

“It’s true!”

“You said you were moving.”

“You can delay it a bit.”

“Isn’t it time to change the pauldrons too?”

“For now, weapons come first. And if you buy this, you can sell the [Black Stone Blade]. Will this be 100 million right now?”

“hmm.”

I pondered for a while.

In Jihoo’s eyes, this dagger suited her better.

“good. Instead, sell that [Black Stone Blade] to me too.”

“… … Are you serious?”

“I’ve been busy with [restoration] lately, so I guess I can sell it for a bit more?”

“I am fine! Okay, Cole!”

Jihoo thought for a moment before opening his mouth.

“Then, could you spread some rumors instead?”

“What rumors?”

Lee Hee-yeon tilted her head.

In this commercial area centered around the [Indomitable Tower], there is no one who does not know about the [General Goods Shop of Trust]. No matter how empty it is for 4 years, everyone in the know knows.

In particular, these days, street men and women are spreading rumors that the general store of trust has reopened.

“Actually, I woke up.”

“Huh really? real? no, how?”

“Yeah, I don’t know either.”

“Wow, great! congratulations! So, did you use this dagger as an attribute?”

she asked vaguely.

Of course. The characteristics resulting from awakening are innumerable and diverse. I couldn’t have predicted how or what he did.

“To put it simply, artifact appraisal, recovery, and enhancement?”

“oh! oh my god!”

I don’t know later, but what I can do with [Setup Intervention] right now is the level of restoration and enhancement of artifacts.

“Wow – congratulations! You appraised and recovered without any characteristics. However, if that characteristic was created- I wish I could even strengthen it! Crazy, that must be great?”

It sure looked good when she said that.

“The rating is still low, so it will take quite a while.”

“still! After all, it’s worth getting to know you.”

“what the. Anyway, sell the bleeding fang for 200 million and buy the black blade for 100 million. What about the balance?”

“Hey, it’s big. my friend. My old friend, whose distribution reaches the sky and whose heart is as wide as the ocean. Would you be okay with the balance as an item?”

very shameless

But he’s such a friend.

“Yeah, turn it off.”

“Ai-”

“Where is Angtal? With lots of money.”

“Eh. It doesn’t work.”

“Will it work?”

In the end, Lee Hee-yeon paid 50 million won in an account and the rest in 3-month installments.

* * *

The most important thing.

That was SP supply and demand.

It was just time to save the settings. 50SP was consumed and I could see white light permeating the dagger.

and.

– The proficiency of [Setting Intervention (Lv. 01)] increases.

– Achievements!

– [Enhance 1st Weapon (Normal)]

– 10 SP is paid.

– [Complete first setup intervention (general)]

– 10 SP is paid.

– [Minimum investment, maximum efficiency (general)]

– 10 SP is paid.

It was the first time I used the setting intervention trait.

A total of 130 SP was received along with the level up of Yeom. A situation that has increased rather than the first time.

tuk tuk-

Jihoo tapped the [Black Stone Blade] he bought from Lee Hee-yeon with his hand and examined the settings for its properties.

『Detailed explanation of SP payment』

: All actions of the user, such as hunting, crafting, selling, and activities, are proofs of work that engrave the user’s existence on the [World Line], and are named [Achievements]. SP is paid according to the level of achievement.

* Rating is based on the user’s influence and awareness.

* You can check it with a brief and clear [Achievement List].

“It’s complicated, but it’s neatly organized.”

Just look at the achievement list.

It’s good that there are no guests.

『Achievement List』

1. Hunting

2. Fabrication

3. Awareness

4. Other activities

5. Purchase

‘… … It’s diverse.’

Hunting was literally hunting. Hunt some monsters. If you kill a few, I’ll give you some SP.

But hunting was a story that had nothing to do with Jihoo. Because he wasn’t a Hunter… … Even though I said, I thought, ‘I don’t know’.

With a lot of SP, it would be possible to raise stats or create talents.

‘Hunting gives a lot compared to other things.’

It must mean that it is difficult.

‘There are production, restoration, and reinforcement in production.’

Uneasy.

First of all, emotions and recovery are karma. That’s why production was just a hobby, and even if you worked hard for a few days, you could only end up with a level 2 in the normal grade.

‘There are also quests for each grade, level, and option.’

The next thing is [awareness], literally how famous you become for hunting or crafting.

“purchase?”

This was the most absurd thing, but it was to buy SP with money, but they ask for 500 million for 100SP.

“… … Since I made 100 million with 50, I guess you only buy it when you really need it. You can’t buy SP with money.”

If the level of [Setting Intervention] goes up, that might change.

Jihoo was able to draw conclusions quickly.

‘Manufacturing gives a lot of SP, and recovery and reinforcement are given in small amounts… … . After all, you just have to learn production while doing what you used to do. Hunting is put on hold for now.’

Jihoo stretched and drank another cup of coffee. I think I need to close my eyes for a while and rest.

From nob le mt l. co m

Maybe it’s because I have a higher level of mental power than a normal person.

After taking a break for about 20 minutes, I came back soon.

Jihoo picked up the dagger Lee Heeyeon had left behind.

‘First, let’s try to restore this [Black Stone Blade].’

Restoration was also supposed to be a setting intervention, but time and materials are surplus, so it is not necessary.

『Black Stone Blade [Rare – Dark] (Lv. 03)』

Description: A hard black ore extracted with a high-level smelting technique. A black dagger forged by a blacksmith with great skills. very sharp and hard

* [(Most) Lowest Durability Enhancement]

* [(Most) lower level anticipation reinforcement]

* [Minimum Vision Distortion]

* Abnormal Status – [Old]

[Recovery] is a delicate task.

In the case of daggers, polishing begins with sharpening the blade, and the ‘mass’ itself that has been ground while sharpening is restored with chemicals.

Usually, when a dagger needs repair, it’s when you can’t sharpen it even if you want to sharpen it further.

In addition, the key is to make it look like new as a whole, including recovering the original shape as much as possible by identifying the material of the handle and nose.

‘The most important thing there is, the restoration of the damaged magic circuit.’

This also leads to [Production].

Crafting an artifact doesn’t mean hammering it first. Engraving magical circuits on objects completed without magic, or combining magical items and transforming them into artifacts.

That is the production of artifacts.

“Oh, it’s already evening.”

too focused

Already four hours have passed, and the sun is going down. It’s still chilly, so the sun sets soon.

Restoration has just been completed.

– [Rare] grade weapon recovery complete!

– The proficiency of [Setting Intervention (Lv. 01)] increases.

– A small amount of SP is given because [Recovery], a sub-action of [Setup Intervention], was successful without a system.

“Oh, you give it this way too.”

got another one

The system has endless uses, but it seems that it likes to do it on its own.

Thanks to that, SP became 140.

『Black Stone Blade [Rare – Dark] (Lv. 03)』

Description: A hard black ore extracted with a high-level smelting technique. A black dagger forged by a blacksmith with great skills. very sharp and hard

* [Lesser Durability Enhancement]

* [Enhanced Lesser Anticipation]

* [Minimum Vision Distortion]

It was a dagger that had been appraised, and I only edited the appraisal after restoration, but the phrase that the [Read] skill level had risen came to mind.

I want to do as much emotion as possible.

“Ugh, this is pretty tough.”

After browsing a few times today and even intervening in the settings, my head is pounding, probably because I concentrated on restoring for 4 hours.

Jihoo closed his eyes for a moment and lay down on a bench in the shade of a tree in front of the store to rest. Then I got up and shut the door.

[CLOSED]

It is 18:40.

Original business hours are until 18:00. I usually leave it open for an extra hour or two, but today I can’t.

I have a place to go.
