Awakening After Divorce

Chapter 54: The Locked Eyes

I wondered if it would be possible without an SP, but somehow [setting intervention] was needed.

“Oh ho ho, it’s okay. Because we have a lot in stock. Make money slowly and come! a discount? oh no It is also incredibly cheap.”

“that’s right! Level 6 armor is less than 100 million! If there’s a rumor outside, it’ll be gone in an instant, right? No, if you keep wanting to shave, you can take it outside and sell it!”

“Ugh! Watch your hands there. isn’t it? If I did it wrong, I almost cut my wrists. Oh ho ho.”

Lee Hee-yeon and Lee Min-ho.

Hearing that Jihoo was even paying incentives, he thought of sitting down here. Obviously, his main job is a hunter, but he is a veteran trader.

Is it the power of money?

‘It looks nice, but.’

Jihoo was worried.

Choi Hye-yeon’s words to go up to the 6th floor are embedded in her heart. she’s not important

father.

From nob le mt l. co m

My father, who climbed the tower and never returned, is lucky to be alive somewhere in the tower. You will adapt here and live a new life.

From nob le mt l. co m

Many climb the tower for that reason.

Then they die, and after they grow and become stronger through constant challenges, they find other jobs. For someone, it may not be such a big aspiration to find a dead family member.

Jihoo was like that too.

No, there was no possibility, so I couldn’t expect it, and I didn’t even think about taking on the challenge.

‘Is it a little different now?’

There is something tickling in the chest.

it seems to say

find your father

Why did he leave behind Jihoo to climb the tower? What happened to the top? Is it true that death is real?

If so, is it at the top?

“I must go down.”

Nothing will change if you decide right away.

I’ve had enough of it on the 3rd floor, and I need to take care of the [Reliable General Store] in [Artisan’s Street].

Of course, before that.

“… … I have to change to automated sales.”

It’s not very difficult.

You can’t accept cash or cards, but there is a circuit that measures the amount of magic power in the basic magic circuit, and you just have to adjust the intake and discharge.

For storage, you can carve a whole level 7 rock, and separate the ‘artifact’ that measures and discharges the amount of magical power with [Segmentation] and fix it.

Now, this level of application is not difficult.

‘It would be nice if the shelter could receive magic stones and make reservations by the hour… … . That’s hard right now.’

But there is another way.

You can create a reservation management system that leaves it to your conscience. Create only permanent signature roster artifacts.

Artificial buildings disappear, but even if you build one artifact, it doesn’t disappear.

‘When there’s a fight, the shelter is closed.’

There is no reason for Jihoo to leave this behind.

I just need to close the door and use it only when Jihoo comes.

* * *

Jihoo left the pagoda 10 days after entering the pagoda.

“Dust builds up after a few days.”

The first thing I did was to dust and check things. Open the windows to ventilate and use the floor.

The [Indomitable Tower] can be seen in the distance.

I climbed the tower that I always looked at. It also went up to the third floor, and even made a shelter inside.

Squeeze.

Jihoo made coffee.

It’s real winter now.

I think I arrived when it was just fall, but now it’s cold and I’m afraid to go outside. Sitting on a chair under a tree would be possible only in spring.

tuk tuk-

Jihoo brushed the dust off the wooden box on one side. And when I lifted the box, a firewood stove was revealed.

“The time has come to write this.”

I was suddenly curious.

This is a firewood stove that has been used since childhood. It always made it possible to spend the winter warmly with less wood.

– Activates [View (Lv. 05)].

There is no talk of lack of levels.

『Iron Golem’s Firewood Stove [Fire/Gold] [Lv. 05]』

: A firewood stove made by melting the entire thigh of an iron golem. The thermal efficiency reaches 250%, and it can stably heat a large space.

*[Medium Thermal Efficiency Amplification]

*[Low-mid safety system]

“… … Certainly, your father was no ordinary appraiser either.”

It is different from when only the container was browsed.

It was because I had vague memories of collaborating with other artisans back then. But this stove was different.

It was because my father brought a large piece of iron one day and made this firewood stove by himself.

Jihoo put some firewood from the second floor in the space expansion pocket and lit it.

Hwareuk-

The fire caught on quickly.

This is different. I had to wrestle with it for a long time to light it with a normal bonfire, but it caught on easily.

In particular, a wood-burning stove can fill the room with smoke if the chimney is not heated, but there is no sign of this at all.

‘I’ll be able to spend warmly this winter too.’

If you put firewood once, it burns well for 7 hours. There is also firewood that was airlifted from the second floor, but the heat efficiency of the stove itself is good.

Also, since this flue goes up to the roof through the second floor, the second floor is also warm.

Hororok.

Jihoo drank an iced Americano and fell into thought.

After finishing the work on the 3rd floor, I stayed another day on the 2nd floor and returned. It was to upgrade the 2nd floor shelter to be more solid, and it could be reinforced with stone brought from the 3rd floor.

At the same time, the holding SP was 40,000.

‘I want to do expansion work.’

The first thing I thought of was the expansion of the [General Store of Trust]. I want to create an additional container itself, but I haven’t had the confidence yet.

How do you make a container of this quality? The total level was 7, and it was absolutely impossible with normal materials other than stones like on the 3rd floor.

‘Think about that later.’

I wonder if it is possible to expand the inner space right now. Since the SP reaches 40,000, I don’t think it’s that difficult.

The problem is saving SP.

Of course, you can do anything if you just pour it in, but if you apply magic circuits and some high-end materials, you will be able to drastically reduce the amount of SP consumed.

“It’s a temporary level increase… … .”

The most important thing was to know the information of this container accurately, and Jihoo’s [View] level was still 5.

The container was expected level 7, but I’m not sure about that either. It was 4 when I checked only windows, walls, and doors that seemed to be subdivided.

smart-

Jihoo raised his head.

Anya Taylor.

Head of Asia Strategic Support Headquarters, World Appraisal Association.

she was there

“Do not worry. It’s not a labyrinth story. I came here to ask for just one emotion.”

“Is it a relic?”

“Yes, I finished the basic emotions, and even found out that there is no curse that affects passively.”

Jihoo shrugged and accepted the item she handed over.

“It looks peculiar. Is it like a work of art?”

“Good to see you. It looks like three triangles wrapped around a sphere, but if you look closely, there won’t be any connection points.”

it looks weird

Because magic and miracles were so prevalent in the world, it became common for plastic artists and painters to use magic.

– A [Seal (Lv. 05)] was found on the target.

– Do you want to [View (Lv. 05)] the target?

Because it is the same level, it seems that you can read it without appraising it separately. But there is something called [Seal].

Jihoo didn’t read it right away either.

“What about the appraisal?”

“Here you go.”

I checked the appraisal she gave me.

『Locked Eyes [Ice/Distortion] [Relic] [Masterpiece] [Lv. 05]』

: Tears of remorse and despair of Alexid, a formative artist called a rare genius. It embodies the eyes of a woman who has been deeply immersed in the eyes of the world.

*[Locked eyes]

– The actual temperature doesn’t change, but I feel chilly for some reason.

*[Remorse and despair (empathy and consolation)]

– Provides remorse and despair to a specific target. Originally, it was the creation of a realm of empathy and comfort.

*[personal area]

– Use a certain space (5m radius).

Jihoo exclaimed in admiration.

First time seeing this kind of work.

Apart from the unique shape, Jihoo, an artifact appraiser, knows how valuable these three options are.

In particular, [Personal Area (Alexid)] had even been heard of by Jihoo. It was his signature mana circuit that several automobile companies and magic towers paid royalties every year and used.

‘This Alexyd, was that Alexid.’

I thought he was just an artist, but he was also a person with quite a lot of intellectual property rights in the magic circuit.

“As you can see, [repentance and despair] was originally [empathy and consolation]. It contains Alexid’s heart to comfort a woman cut off from the world.”

Jihoo couldn’t take his eyes off her words. It’s so well made that it gives you goosebumps. No, it’s literally a transfer.

“That’s amazing.”

“Yes? He is one of the world’s leading sculptural artists. This object is worth 130 billion.”

“Hey, can I just treat you like this?”

“Why, are you going to steal it?”

“Well, not like that.”

130 billion.

It hasn’t been long since Jihoo started earning well, but the amount is breathtaking. I wasn’t even greedy.

It’s such a huge amount that I can’t even estimate it.

“But don’t worry. It looks like it should be disposed of now.”

“yes?”

I am very surprised today.

Anya Taylor also shrugged her shoulders and opened her mouth, still smiling as if she was bewildered.

“Artists are like that. He said he didn’t understand, but he said it was unacceptable. Black bullet, who supports Alexid. do you know? It is a huge group that has three S-class hunters while being the best rated military company in Russia. The president of that place, Lev, finally brought it after being torn apart.”

“… … why did you do that to me… … ?”

Jihoo sincerely didn’t understand.

I brought a work worth 130 billion won by a famous formative artist in Russia to a small general store in Gaegun-myeon, Yangpyeong-gun, Seoul.

It also supports Alexid… … It is said that Anya Taylor brought it directly from a ridiculous company through an appraisal association.

“Is that a relic?”

“… … Could that be the reason?”

Anya Taylor tilted her head as if she really didn’t know, and smiled at Jihoo.

“relics. A cursed object that creates a labyrinth. He went into the place where the humanoid artifact that became the monarch was located and kicked it out.”

“No, that is-”

“The process or method doesn’t matter. I brought it to the most trustworthy person, and if Mr. Jihoo can’t do it, he can go back. Can I stab you once?”

“… … .”

make people speechless It was embarrassing, but… … , honestly, nothing seemed difficult.

“Well, I don’t think it would be too difficult, so you want me to fix this artifact? Restitution.”

“… … Can you fix this, can you?”

This time, Anya Taylor was surprised.

It couldn’t be better if it was restored, but being a relic is a miracle itself and a curse. Artifacts become artifacts, artifacts create labyrinths, and labyrinths lead to great disasters.

It’s not broken, it’s evolved.

Of course someone has tried. It was impossible because the system itself, which is [transfer], was not formed by magic or a structure, so it was impossible.

There was no way.

“… … .”

“… … .”

Jihoo scratched his head.

It’s very burdensome to look like that with those big eyes. Eyes like a cat looking forward to something.

It seems that there was a small misunderstanding with each other.

There was something more important than that.

“What about the reward?”

“… … Once you do, everything you want will be there. If it’s money, it’s money, if it’s an artifact, it’s an artifact. Or whatever.”
