Chapter 41: Transcendent Shop (2)
Seo-yoon didn’t even have a clue how to accept the current situation.
Of course, unlike ordinary students, Seo-yoon knew better than anyone else that he was quite unique. To be more precise, it could be said that it was slightly beyond the category of unusual, and that it was crazy.
Therefore, Seo-yoon was not surprised by Seo-joon’s actions.
In the previous contest when Seo-joon killed Nerquila, a six-star monster, Seo-yoon was convinced, saying, “If it’s Seo-joon, it’s possible.”
But she didn’t even have a clue how to accept the scene in front of her eyes now.
Seo-joon cut the gargoyle and killed it before it could even fully awaken.
Seo-yoon even thought that the gargoyle was actually made of soft tofu, not stones.
If the gargoyle was a two-star monster and the spear contained mana, she wouldn’t even bring it up but it was a four-star monster and there was no mana in the spear.
“What is this…?”
The problem did not end here as Seo-joon suddenly took something out of his arms.
“…pocket?”
Seo-yoon watched Seo-joon’s behavior blankly as he put the cut gargoyle in a strange pocket.
Of course pockets were made to hold something in the first place however; the big problem was that that pocket was only the size of two fists combined. On the other hand, a gargoyle is a monster that is about 2 meters tall.
Seo-yoon didn’t even have a clue how to accept the scene unfolding in front of her. However, Seo-joon jumped in place a few times as if he knew Seo-yoon’s feelings.
“Well, it’s heavier than I thought, maybe because it’s a 70% weight decrease. I’ll take them all at once after the raid.”
He took the gargoyle out of his pocket again.
“……No way, a subspace pocket?”
This was the only thing Seo-yoon could think of after much consideration. So Seo-yoon had no choice but to think that this situation made more sense.
The subspace pocket was a considerably expensive artifact since it was difficult to make.
As a simple example, subspace pockets with a storage space of about 30 pyeong (100 square meters) were sold for as much as 30 billion won.
However, there is no way Seo-joon would have such a subspace pocket. Plus that extraordinary spear.
In the end, Seo-yoon, who couldn’t stand it, asked Seo-joon.
“Seo Jun, I’m asking just in case. Was the prize money for the contest $400 million, not 400 million won?”
Seo-yoon rebuked her stupidity since $400 million amount was about 500 billion won in Korean currency.
If the prize was so great even her grandfather would have participated not to mention S-rank hunters.
That’s why she knew it didn’t make sense, but the problem was that the situation in front of her could not be explained.
“No way.”
Seo-joon shakes his head as expected.
“Then how on earth did you buy those things? Where did you buy it?”
“Ah…”
Seo-joon looked troubled at Seo-yoon’s subsequent question. In fact, Seo-joon guessed that Seo-yoon would ask such a question.
Longinus’ spears and Kibissis were not equipment to buy that could be bought with only 400 million won therefore Seo-joon prepared himself to explain in advance. However, the power of Longinus’ spear was beyond imagination.
“Haha…”
Seo-joon couldn’t bring up the excuses he had prepared.
He waited for a while then opened his mouth with a feeling that he didn’t know what to say.
“In fact, I bought it at the Hunter store where I happened to stop by.”
“A Hunter store? Where is that place?”
“It’s a store located in a dark alley near my house, and it’s called Transcendent. I also found out for the first time that there was a Hunter store there.”
“That shop sold the spear and the pocket for 400 million won?”
“Yes. Maybe the owner didn’t recognize their value.”
Seo-yoon asked Seo-joon again,
“Where is it? I want to go there once.”
“Oh, if you go now, it won’t be there. When I bought this, the owner said he would go on a trip after organizing the shop.”
“…What?”
Of course, Seo-yoon didn’t seem to believe it. However, Seo-joon did not bother to make excuses.
In the first place, there was nothing to explain, and even if he did, he would only lie.
As expected, Seo-yoon asked again about the Transcendent Shop. However, when Seo-joon avoided answering, Seo-yoon no longer asked.
“Since Seo-joon said so…”
However, she did not completely abandon her doubts.
Seo-joon kept walking and suddenly, as if there was an earthquake, the entire dungeon began to tremble all at once.
Seo-joon was nervous for a moment and keenly focused on his senses.
“Is it a distortion?”
It was none other than dungeon distortion that came to Seo-joon’s mind. However, he soon shook off his nervousness at the sight of dozens of gargoyles in front of him.
The tremor just now seemed not to be a distortion, but a tremor created by dozens of gargoyles moving at once.
In the first place, distortions couldn’t have happened this often.
“I think it’s a little dangerous here.”
Seo-yoon’s voice was heard as she stood with her sword drawn and was preparing to deal with the gargoyles.
“Wait a minute.”
However, Seo-joon blocked Seo-yoon.
“Let me test something.”
Longinus’ spear was more powerful than Seo-joon’s expectation since he could cut gargoyles like tofu without using mana.
‘What would happen if I included Reverse Divergence and Merlin’s mana?’
Seo-joon wanted to experiment once.
“What?”
Seo-joon took a step forward instead of answering, boosting his momentum and used Reverse Divergence.
Seo-yoon looked quite surprised at Seo-joon’s changing momentum but Seo-joon didn’t stop here.
‘Pierce.’
Seo-joon recalled the feeling of dealing with Nerquila and the power gained from Merlin’s lecture then with a strange feeling, a bluish energy began to form on Longinus’ spear.
“Sword Aura?”
Seo-yoon opened her eyes wide at the sight.
“When the hell have you learned Sword Aura?”
To be precise, it wasn’t Sword Aura.
Merlin defined it as a way of twisting the laws of the world with individual beliefs and bringing power that didn’t originally existed into reality; however the phenomenon was only Aura.
However, to Seo-yoon, who did not know such a thing, it just seemed like Sword Aura.
Seo-joon poured the power of Reverse Divergence and mana into Longinus’ spear and Longinus’ spear sucked those forces like a sponge.
Eventually, a tremendous amount of wind pressure erupts around Longinus’ spear.
It was so much that it was hard for Seo-joon to even hold the spear.
At that moment, dozens of gargoyles attacked Seo-joon but he quickly threw out his spear without hesitation.
Longinus’s spear shot out like a conductor’s hand at the end of the last paragraph and as it got to the end a huge explosion that shook the dungeon occurred.
The force that was fired crushed everything that blocked it and left only dust after it.
After a while, the dust settled down along with dozens of gargoyles that had been pulverized in between.
“…crazy.”
Seo-yoon’s soul ascended to heaven because she couldn’t hold out.
……
Seo-joon returned to the academy after finishing the dungeon raid and stared blankly at Longinus’ spear.
The Holy Spear, which is said to have stabbed Jesus hanging on the cross. Still, this was an imitation, so he thought there would be some defects, but after checking the power in person, it was immediately more helpful in terms of power than a transcendent lecture.
Especially at the end, when he used the power of Reverse Divergence and mana…
Seo-joon started shaking without realizing it but on the other hand was wary because there could be people who might come to steal his spear right away.
Seo-yoon wouldn’t, but he didn’t know about others so Seo-joon wondered if he should hide his spear in ordinary times but soon he realized he didn’t have to do that at all.
(This item was produced by successful students for junior students, and secondary sales are strictly prohibited.)
Only Seo-joon could use the equipment that he got from the Transcendent Shop anyway.
After a brief experiment, Seo-yoon could not even touch Longinus’ spear and Kibissis. In a way, it was its biggest strength and biggest weakness.
Anyway, there was no fear of being stolen.
“More than that, craftsmen don’t blame tools.”
Come to think of it, all the craftsmen were already using good tools. In that sense, it would be good to purchase the necessary equipment by referring to the posts written in the community as well as the Transcendent Lecture.
“Sigh…”
“In the end, it’s money again.”
The price of the next equipment was between 600 and 700 million won and Seo-joon currently had only 25 million won.
Above all, the cause and effect will be adjusted as the equipment is purchased.
<The remaining period until the end of your free pass: 25 days.>
Considering the end of the free pass period was coming, money was literally everything to Seo-joon now.
Equipment was also important, but Seo-joon’s priority was the Transcendent Lectures.
He didn’t know how much the free pass would cost, but next time he had to repurchase the free pass, not equipment.
“But I want to complete a lecture before the free pass is over.”
Seo-joon checked the progress of his current lecture.
<Chiron Lecture Progress 62.1%>
<Shakyamuni Lecture Progress 14.5%>
<Xiang Yu Lecture Progress 68.7%>
<Merlin Lecture Progress 17.9%>
Considering that the free pass period was 90 days, there were his 65-day achievements.
Shakyamuni and Merlin would not be possible, but he seemed to be able to complete Chiron or Xiang Yu’s lectures.
“I’ll have to work hard for 25 days.”
Seo-joon immediately took action.
Thanks to the gargoyle body contained in the Kibissis, he was able to do the assignments with an increased weight.
When he was about to complete his assignments.
“Oh, by the way Seo-joon, there’s something I forgot to tell you.”
Suddenly, he heard Seo-yoon’s voice.
Seo-yoon still looked suspicious, but Seo-joon ignored it and asked.
“What’s wrong?”
“Jimin unni (older sister) wants to meet you. Is it okay?”
“Jimin unni?”
Seo-joon’s first thought as soon as he heard that was ‘a blind date?’ So he thought for a moment and opened his mouth again.
“Who is Jimin unni? Seo-yoon, did you have any sisters?”
“No. I just know her········Ah! If I say she’s the student of the Demon Star, you’ll know at once.”
“What? Demon Star disciple?”
Seo-joon was quite surprised by Seo-yoon’s subsequent calm words. That’s because Seo Jun knew Demon Star as well as Demon Star student.
The student Demon Star took under his wing was a genius whom he recognized as having surpassed him. In fact, she was the next generation Demon Star so of course, it wasn’t a blind date.
‘So you’re just an acquaintance of his disciple?’
If your grandfather is the Sword Saint, the people around you are of a different class.
Seo-joon laughed weakly and asked.
“Why does she want to meet me?”
“She has a few questions about the last incident. At the time, she said she was going to come in right away but I stopped her by saying that you weren’t feeling well.”
“Ah…”
Seo-joon nodded softly. It was about the last dungeon distortion incident.
Then, suddenly.
“Hang on. Is she…?”
“What?”
Seo-yoon was puzzled for a moment, but recalled the first meeting between the Sword Saint and Seo-joon and said.
“Oh, no. She’s not like that. You don’t have to worry.”
“Well, then. I’m all right.”
Seo-joon nodded.
“Then I’ll contact you and let you know the date.”
“Yes.”
Seo-joon quickly stopped paying attention to Seo-yoon’s subsequent words and,
“One!”
Squat!
“…I really don’t know what you’re doing.”
Seo-yoon shook her head and left a text for Jimin and then began to make plans to recruit new students.
A little while later when Seo-joon and Seo-yoon were deep in their work.
“Bam.”
“Seo-yoon, I’m here!”
Suddenly the academy door opened and someone came in. She was a woman with long reddish brown hair who seemed to be in her late teens and early 20s.
“Is it Jimin?”
It was Jeong Jimin, the disciple of the Demon star.
Seo-yoon said to Jimin with a surprised face.
“How did you get here already? I just called you.”
“I teleported.”
“No… I’m not asking how you came, but why you came now.”
“I thought you gave me permission.”
Seeing Jimin tilt her head as if to ask what was wrong, Seo-yoon shook her head.
Even though she was well over 40 years old, she felt like a younger sister because of her appearance.
“Where is the guy grandpa raved about?”
Seo-yoon immediately answered.
“Mr. Seo-joon is training over there, but…What do you mean, grandpa raved about him?”
“Grandpa said he was an unsightly bastard, but I’ve never heard him say that before, what else do you want to know?”
Jimin slowly turned her head with a playful puppy dog expression.
“Two!”
Seo-joon turned to face her.
“…What are you doing?”
Jimin couldn’t understand the situation for a moment.
“Ah— That’s right.”
At the same time, Seo-yoon didn’t know how to explain it and,
“Three! Hmm, I think it’s a little less efficient. Should I increase the weight a bit more?”
Seo-joon suddenly stopped the squat and dragged the metal fittings around him and put them into the Kibissis.
“Huh? A space pocket?”
Jimin was overjoyed and walked quickly toward Seo-joon.
Her vision got closer and closer until she could make out the magic circuits on the Kibissis.
“No way!”
Jimin froze in place with her eyes wide open.
Seo-yoon didn’t even have a clue how to accept the current situation.
Of course, unlike ordinary students, Seo-yoon knew better than anyone else that he was quite unique. To be more precise, it could be said that it was slightly beyond the category of unusual, and that it was crazy.
