Title 78 Decision

Jihoo entered the forge.

“hello. Auntie.”

“Jihoo are you here? Uncle is in the studio. Seeing as you’ve been concentrating for so long, it looks like you’ll be back tomorrow morning.”

“Oh yeah?”

you will be busy

However, the geothermal man had already completed the ‘basic’ smelting work that Jihoo had requested. It was subdivided into sizes that were easy to sell, and ingots of different colors were piled up on one side.

Each ingot weighs 4kg, which is half the size.

There were 5 in total, each weighing 2 kg.

“I guess I’ll just have to take this. Oh, and I’m going to take a look!”

“Okay, look around slowly.”

Shim Ji-hye.

Ji-yeol’s wife, she looks like an ordinary housewife, but 10 years ago she was a famous archer in the city.

‘It looks like you’ve become a housewife now.’

Jihoo looked around the forge for the first time in a while.

Again, on one side of the wall, there are beginner weapons and armor between levels 1 and 3. This is not a rule that must be followed unconditionally.

But everyone knows.

New hunters constantly come in to survive, become stronger, and grow to help the streets. That’s why most artisans always prepare things for newbies.

‘Hey, I definitely like things.’

You see something you didn’t see before.

Its viewing level was 6, it had super senses, and it had magical knowledge as well as enhanced magic, so it looked completely different even though it was a weapon I used to see often.

‘A level 5 rare spear. Steel becomes the skeleton, and by properly mixing red iron and magic iron, it has [Self-repair] and [Magic amplification].’

The important thing is that it is the performance of the weapon itself that has not been carved with circuits. That means that you can engrave additional circuits on your weapon, and if you are Jihoo now, you can raise it to the [History] level right away.

‘If I meet the Archmage, a higher grade might be possible.’

The quality itself is definitely good.

Should I say it’s great?

How could they create something like this without mana circuits or magic? Is this an S-class craftsman?

‘Am I too obsessed with circuits?’

I’ve been having a lot of trouble these days.

I’ve been accumulating SP, but I haven’t decided how to use it, and I don’t know how to learn magic. Looking at the things here, even if you learn magic, it seemed infinitely lacking.

Then there was one weapon that caught my eye.

“uh? Is this an unidentified wand?”

“huh. The man bought it from someone who came looking for a new weapon. If you have unsentimental feelings, I won’t listen even if you tell me not to buy it.”

“hahahaha, but you’re buying good things, right?”

“still… … , the guys who sometimes try to take advantage of it. No, what am I talking about. I bought it for 100 million. The material is in good shape, but as you can see, it’s a staff.”

“That’s right.”

“It looks like I bought it just for the ingredients, but it doesn’t rust and I don’t feel the magic to overcome the passing of time. I think I bought the wrong one this time.”

There is only one reason why Jihoo was stuck with this staff.

[Sealed Staff (Lv. 05)]

: It is sealed with various security circuits and strange powers.

If you look at the name and description, you get a quote.

Rather, if [seal] is written in parentheses, you can correct it. However, if the name itself is [Sealed Staff], the words are different.

If [Sealed] is erased and only the [Stand] is left, the artifact’s function will be broken along with the seal. You will never know what kind of artifact it was for the rest of your life.

‘The staff could be the seal itself.’

It reminds me of the [Masterpiece] that hid its true face.

“Even if I appraise this, it shows up as a sealed wand, right? It is a level 5 seal.”

“yes? After all, your belly button is bigger than your stomach.”

That’s usually what you think.

Depending on the type of [Seal], you need to buy the time of a 4- to 6-star wizard, but the billion unit goes by default. Besides, it’s not something that can be solved 100% by requesting it like that.

Of course, if you can’t solve it, you can’t get a refund.

It means trouble in many ways.

“Can I buy this?”

“Ah, it works, but what are you going to do by buying something like this? The material is good, so if you melt it, it will fill up a few thousand.”

“I am studying magic these days. I will use it for research purposes.”

“okay? Then just take it.”

“Ah, no. But sure, money!”

At Jihoo’s words, Aunt Jihye smiled and nodded. It’s natural to help each other on this street, but it’s right to have a clear relationship with money.

Of course, the standard for certainty is a little different from other people. It’s because they just give you a discount on the level of 100 to 10 million won.

* * *

The book Jihoo is holding is [Common Magic (1 Star)].

[Common] refers to magic that can be learned by anyone, regardless of school or field. Even if the talent possessed is low, it is the lowest level magic that can be manifested if one can use even a little magic power.

There are up to three stars in total, and the emotion-related magic Jihoo learned is also included in common magic.

Chow-

Jihoo turns the bookshelf. It is a 1 star magic. It’s not emotion magic, it’s magic I’ve never seen before, but it’s not difficult.

The bookshelf slides over easily.

I didn’t even use [understand].

‘This much is worth doing now.’

Jihoo entered the general store and inspected the [Sealed Staff (Lv. 05)]. The information obtained using [Segmentation] and some [Understanding] was as follows.

[Sealed Staff (Lv. 05)]

: First, there is [Fingerprint Recognition (Lv. 03)] security circuit for user recognition, and secondly, [Magic Pattern Security (Lv. 04)] is installed. The third level is [Magic Seal (Lv. 04)], which is classified as cognitive distortion, and the fourth level is [Glass (Lv. 05)]. [Yuri] The inside cannot be confirmed.

In a word, I don’t know.

2 security circuits, 2 seals.

Besides, that’s not all.

“… … What the hell are you hiding?”

I couldn’t figure it out at all.

Even if [Segmentation] is used, it is a [Security circuit], so the information called security created in some way is all. The basics were not enough to [understand] right away.

Also, if you are not going to do mental exhaustion, it is right to build from the basics.

Chow-

handed over the book

I need to study for a while.

* * *

the next morning.

with my daughter-

Jihoo opened a general store as he did every day. I put firewood in the stove, opened the window to ventilate it, and dusted it off.

After expanding the general store, it is open and open. It is also reassuring to bring a lot of things.

Guests enter one by one.

Recently, as [Knights of the Cold Cold]’s capture of [Indomitable Tower] became known on TV and various media outlets, the number of people definitely increased. There were ordinary people who came to see [Knights of the Cold Cold], and there were many hunters who wanted to climb the tower because their blood was boiling.

The number of hero candidates attending the academy has also increased considerably. It seemed that they were practicing at the [Tower of Indomitability], and they were seen climbing in a line as a group.

with my daughter-

Another guest came in.

It was an appraisal guest, and Jihoo took a quick look and wrote down the appraisal. Since the reading level was about 6, there weren’t many things that could be directly appraised. No, not much lately.

with my daughter-

This time, as if he were a buyer, he looked around the general store and paid for an accessory. Then, after looking at the [Magic Iron Ingot] for a while, I asked Jihoo.

“Is this very expensive?”

“Yes, it’s from a level 7 predator-grade metal ray. In particular, the part you see now is more expensive because it is the part of the fin that emitted the [Black Force Field]. In addition, it went into the smelting of S-class artisans. In fact, no matter where you look in the country, it will be difficult to find ‘Ma-cheol’ that is as good as that.”

At that, the guest nodded.

Then he frowned and seemed to be thinking for a while. Usually, 2 kg of horse iron costs millions of won, but this one costs as much as 50 million won.

Actually, this is also cheap.

You can tell just by looking at the appraisal report.

[Refined Magic Iron Ingot (Predator Grade) (Lv. 06) (2kg)]

Normal ingot levels range from 2 to 4. The magic iron ingot from the predator was only level 4, but it became level 6 because it was refined by Mr. Geoyeol.

In fact, it is true that these items are hard to find anywhere in the country.

‘Unless you’re a blacksmith, it’s not very useful… … .’

Jihoo also wondered if this would sell.

If there is a blacksmith you know, it would be better to just buy the materials and ask them to make them, but at this price, it is better to use other metals.

So the price drops compared to the level. Many factors affect the price of a product.

“I want to buy two of these. if… … .”

“Yes, feel free to speak.”

“Um, I don’t know if that will excuse me, but I’m [Iron Mage]. Can I touch it to see if it’s possible [Synthesis]? There will never be any changes to the magic iron ingot. I’m sure of that!”

“… … yes what it’s okay.”

“thank you. There is something that doesn’t work if the level is high.”

I was actually curious.

I’ve never heard of it. Magic that creates a different shape by passing through a fluid, such as water or air, or causes a specific chemical reaction.

It is a school called [Alchemy Science], and alchemists are also included in this school.

‘Hyung-bae seems to be doing well, but since then he’s locked himself in the house and won’t come out.’

Well, since before, when I was hooked on one, I didn’t step out of the house and went crazy.

“Then excuse me.”

He heard a magic iron ingot.

Waves of light magic spread around him several times, and several small magic circles appeared in front of him.

They are intertwined with each other and turn like gears. And that magic permeates the magic iron ingot.

ping-

With a little light, the hardened iron ingot stretches like dough. Depending on the magician’s gesture, it stretched, pointed, or coiled like a spring.

That much was nothing.

Even delicate work with pulleys and cogs was done in an instant. It’s like watching a 3D print. [Extract/Combine/Fix (Lv. 06)] is a level that cannot be imitated.

‘That’s amazing. Even if I do that properly, I’ll be able to come up with a decent weapon.’

That’s why [Steel Mage] is said to carry several types of specific metals in his expansion bag. Each metal is their weapon and shield. And it becomes magic.

“Oh, great. The magical power content and the purity of the smelting are ridiculous. Is it expensive?”

“Yes?”

“yes! Crazy! I’ll buy three of these. Calculate together, please.”

Jihoo also smiled happily.

I hope you write well.

Then I [read] him. It was because he was curious about what kind of magic he had learned and what characteristics he had learned.

But there wasn’t much information.

Because not everything you study will come out. What is unusual is that he has a talent called [Supersensory Perception].

have heard

‘Did you say that the most important thing in the rigid body coupling system is the ability for extrasensory perception?’

There are usually three main series in the [alchemy coupling school], which are [rigid body], [fluid], and [academic]. [Academic] has an alchemist, so Hyung-bae can be regarded as a member of that group.

‘This is very attractive.’

I’ve been interested in magic lately, so there’s something like that. Besides, since I’ve accumulated quite a bit of SP, it’s a decent talent. Or, because I was thinking about making a characteristic, I couldn’t help but be more interested.

If you have [Super Sense] and [Extract/Combine/Fix (Lv. 06)], [Synthesis] itself may not be too difficult.

Jihoo thought.

‘The thing I lack the most in the production side is to make the main product. But I can’t learn blacksmith skills from now on. However, with [Synthesis], it is possible to do much more delicate work than extracting or fixing. Of course, it’s much less than learning professionally like a blacksmith, but… … That’s greed.’

[Set Intervention] and [View].

[Magic] and [Circuit].

In addition, [Conversion] was practically the same as becoming an S-class producer.
