After seeing the item’s quality, Seol understood why the energy felt unusual.
Seol then read Fire Monkey’s details.
[You have acquired ‘Peerless: Fire Monkey’.]
[You have acquired an item that didn’t exist in the world previously.]
[[Peerless: Fire Monkey]
Quality: Peerless
Recomnded Level: 25-35
Defense: 70
Durability: 165/165
Weight: 0.1kg
Magra, the Scorching, was a rebel in the Sulfur Skull Tribe.
When he left the tribe, having once again etched the na of the declining Sulfur Skull Tribe into the world of Pandea, the tribe, in honor of his feats, held a ceremony for Purga.
And on that day, Purga’s insignia was etched into Magra’s cape.
Basic Effect: 20 to All Stats
Bonus Effect: Truth and Lie (Unique), Dizzy Dizzy (Unique), Fire! (Unique). The damage you take from fire attacks is reduced by 90%.]
‘Oh my god…’
20 to All Stats.
It was extrely rare for equipnt to give this many stats unless it was for key slots like chest plates, pants, helts, and weapons.
‘This might even be better than Space…’
Even though Space’s stat increase was amazing, Fire Monkey was on another level.
- Why the FUCK is a cape giving 70 defense?
- Imagine being a warrior who needs to wear a chest plate to get 70 defense LMFAOO
- ???: Co on… How could a cape give 70 defense? LOL That’s too far hahahaha
- I didn’t think Peerless items could be dropped too… First ti learning that…
- Isn’t he the first transferee to get a Peerless item as a drop?
- I’m pretty sure there are a few transferees with Peerless waaaaay over there.
- Yeah, but Snowman has three already ^^. He even gave one of them to his summon ^^.
Not to ntion the fact that this item gave 90% fire damage resistance.
Seol calmly checked all of the unique effects the item gave.
First, Truth and Lie made the wearer’s dodge rate 20% if it was lower than 20%. If the wearer’s dodge rate was higher than 20%, it would increase the wearer’s dodge rate by 5%.
‘Since my current dodge rate is below 5%, this is a huge boost.’
It was an incredible effect that allowed a slower class, like a summoner, to deftly dodge even a boss monster’s attack one out of five tis.
- Truth… and Lie…
- That’s a sha, though. It would have been much better if he was a rogue or a monk.
- This item wouldn’t be that efficient on them though since their dodge rates are already high.
- Guys, talking about who it would have been better for doesn’t matter LOL! Peerless items are one of one.
- True LOL! It would have been nice on a rogue, too, though. But who cares~ A summoner got it~
- Who does the Peerless item belong to?
- The person who picked it up~
Next was Dizzy Dizzy. It was a passive effect that significantly diminished the wearer's presence, making them appear hazier than others.
‘This is also good. No, this is incredibly good.’
Since the wearer, Seol, would attract less attention, Seol's party would naturally face fewer risks protecting him.
Since all three of Seol’s summons were Legendary-rank, if Seol could just remove their only weakness, getting targeted himself, it would allow his summons to do much more in battle.
‘However… the effects are much weaker against enemies with high Intelligence. Still, it isn’t bad.’
Even though it was less effective against enemies like Magra, it would be extrely effective against enemies with low Intelligence, like demonic beasts.
And luckily, most of the monsters in Pandea were demonic beasts. And as such, Seol could use this effect a lot.
The last effect was called ‘Fire!’
‘This is…’
It was an effect that rolled ‘Execute Dice’ when an enemy’s health reached 10%.
‘This is an incredible effect!’
- An execute? What? An execute?
- Hold on, 10%??? How does a 10% execute make sense?
- Woah, hold on! Even if it is an execute, he still has to roll a dice, no?
- Don’t fuck with ! I bet it lets him execute if he rolls a 4 or higher!
- Quiet! I think it might even be a 3 or higher… Let’s just not talk about this!
- This is insane, LOL Boss Killer Snowman hahaha! You’re crazy!
A 10% execute.
It also obviously affected the damage that Seol’s summons dealt as well, making it an incredible effect.
‘There’s nothing better than this for dealing with boss monsters.’
Unlike normal monsters, boss monsters had enormous HP totals. Magra, who endured attacks from two Legendary-rank summons for an extended period, was also proof of it.
But the skill ‘Fire!’ had a certain chance of removing 10% of a boss monster’s HP entirely on its own.
- The biggest mystery in Yognatun is why Magra fought Snowman without this LOOOOL
- I’m sure he thought he would win hahaha He took it off because he wanted to keep it clean.
- It’s sort of like how you take off your outerwear before you slurp noodles lol
- I’m sure he regretted it during the battle, though haha
- ???: Ah, right! It’s been getting cold recently so I should wear sothing!
Karen’s eyes looked possessed, looking at the cape.
Seol smiled and equipped the cape himself.
“Ah…”
- What do you an ‘Ah…’? LMFAO
- You have to rein her in right now. If you don’t, she’s probably going to run off with the chest soday.
- Peerless belt and cape… Even though he has two Peerless-quality items, they’re both for non-important slots. R.I.P.
- I an, he still stat checks anyone with just those two, though LMFAO
- He’s way too strong now 🫤
- Fire Monkey is so cool… The insignia is fucking sick too.
- Seriously, it looks like a luxury item.
After that, Seol checked his new titles.
[[Special Title: The Burning One]
Related Achievent: Fire’s Grace (Adventure: Pierce the Flas)
Bonus Effect: Immune to Abnormal Status: Burned.]
[[Special Title: The One Who Opened the New Era]
Related Achievent: Expedited Era (Adventure: Pierce the Flas)
Bonus Effect: Skill cooldowns are reduced by 5%.]
[[Special Title: Flas of Purification]
Related Achievent: Engulfed Fire (Adventure: Pierce the Flas)
Bonus Effect: The damage you deal with fire attacks is increased by 10%.]
Even if Seol wasn’t affected by ‘Flas of Purification’ as it was Karen’s title, it did not matter. After all, the other titles were extrely useful.
‘The reduced cooldowns would be good for my summons, too.’
Since Seol only had Shadow Hand and Shadow Summon as his skills, cooldown reduction was not that important for him. However, since it also applied to his summons, it was an incredible boost to their combat capabilities.
‘And stacking more and more Abnormal Status immunities is always good.’
Immunity to one Abnormal Status wouldn’t change much, but once soone gained a variety of them, it beca an entirely different story.
Mythical physical conditions that only existed in murim novels like ‘Immunity to Heat and Cold’, ‘Immunity to All Poisons’, and ‘Diamond Body’ could only be reached once an individual built up many different immunities.
Everything related to the Fire Altar Adventure, from the equipnt to the titles, was incredibly beneficial for Seol.
‘Now that Karuna and Jamad are much stronger, for now, I’m practically invincible.’
Seol was extrely objective with himself, making him think of himself like this was rare.
This was also Seol’s reaction after checking Karuna and Jamad’s stats since arriving in Gulia.
‘They’re 1.5 tis… no, practically three tis stronger now.’
Currently, Seol’s summons were only able to maintain 50% of their original strength.
But after Karuna’s rank was improved to Legendary-rank, his stats were higher than what they were originally. Not to ntion that summoning both him and Karen simultaneously would lead them to having 100% of their original strength.
When Seol looked at it purely nurically, it was thrice his previous stats.
Jamad was not lacking either.
After improving to Legendary-rank, he had his original strength which ant that his stats were now extrely high. The only thing he didn’t get back were his skills.
Still, it simply ant that all three of Seol’s summons were now around the sa power level.
All three were at exceptionally powerful levels.
- I don’t have the confidence… to lose!
- Call an ambulance… but not for !
- Guys, watch out! He’s got a steamroller!!!
Seol doubted himself every day.
He wondered if this was really the best he could do, if this really was the best way to get stronger…
But now, while acknowledging that things could change in the future during his long and unpredictable journey, he was certain of one thing.
At this very mont, he was the strongest.

It was a room adorned with old-fashioned decorations and furnished with only the bare necessities. This was the office of Patrick Kates, Fortress Gulia’s master, and a military officer.
“Look, Kibo. Are you really telling to believe that?”
“It’s up to the Fortress’s master to decide whether to believe it or not, that’s not a question for .”
“How the hell am I supposed to believe that Purga was upset by the trolls and slaughtered them all?!”
“Hah… those are statents from people who ca back after believing that they would die. Watch your words.”
“...And I am soone who needs to report this incident to the military. Why do you think I’m delaying my report? It’s because you guys keep saying strange things.”
"I understand, but we were also individuals who were on the brink of death in Yognatun, desperately waiting to be rescued."
The Nevenia Kingdom had abandoned its citizens.
Not a single soldier was dispatched to Yognatun to save its citizens.
And thus, nothing the captain of Fortress Gulia could say could bring them comfort. Since he could only move his army under the command of the royal family and military authorities, he simply protected the Fortress while people were dragged to Yognatun.
As such, Patrick was relieved when Kibo and the other survivors returned, but he also found it strange.
“You’re claiming that the ceremony they worked so hard to prepare went awry… but not only that, the majority of the prisoners returned alive?”
“Are we not allowed to return alive?”
“You know that’s not what I was implying. Why won't you tell the truth?”
“You asked for the truth, so I told you the truth. It was a miracle that we made it out alive after so many things, so when you tell us that you don’t believe it… it wears down our weary hearts even more.”
Patrick glanced at Kibo’s two missing legs and sighed.
“You can head back. I will report exactly as you've told to the higher-ups.”
“Thank you, Patrick.”
Kibo pushed the wheels of the chair Hamun hurriedly made for him to leave.
After everyone was finally released from Patrick, they all gathered to plan out their future.
“Do we have to return to Nobira now?”
“I don’t think it’s habitable for people anymore…”
“It would beco habitable if we make it habitable, no?”
“That’s true.”
“We’re all people who have nowhere else to go but Nobira. Why don’t we clean up the ruined buildings and rebuild?”
“Yeah! Let’s go back to Nobira!”
As everyone was excited about their new start, Kibo said sothing to Mira who was standing blankly.
“Mira.”
“Yeah.”
“Are you waiting for him?”
“...Yeah. He’s late, though.”
“He’ll co soon, so don’t worry. He was the only person who was fine in that hell, after all.”
“I’m not worried about him. I just thought it would be better if he ca sooner. I plan to return to Nobira with you after taking care of business with him anyway.”
“Haha… and what are you going to do after you return?”
“I don’t know… I wonder what I have left now…”
A shadow was cast over Mira’s face, thinking about her dead party mbers.
“What do you think about forming your own hunting group now?”
“My own… hunting group?”
"Yeah, sothing you create on your own, not sothing I handed down to you. Haha… Well, it's not like I can just give you anything anymore, though.”
“That might not be a bad idea.”
“You’re a wolf now, Mira. You overca that hell. After everything you’ve been through, uncovering secrets from so ruins will be a breeze for you.”
“Kibo.”
“What is it? Do you need more ti to think…”
“No, it’s not that. Let’s talk about it next ti.”
“...Ah.”
Kibo and Mira looked at the fortress’s entrance. Soone was confidently walking toward them.
“So he arrived.”
* * *
The first person Seol t after arriving in Gulia was Mira.
She showed up the mont Seol thought he could catch a breath after passing the inspection gate.
“Mira?”
“So you arrived safely, Snow– I an, Seol. Did everything go well?”
“Yeah, Mael handled it well. Did you make sure not to talk about the hol–”
“We explained it well, so don’t worry. They won’t suspect a thing.”
“That’s good.”
Karen had a pleasant expression on her face after seeing Mira.
“Oh? When did you guys get here?”
“Ah… just now…”
“Have a seat, have a seat! Master’s pretty rude to his guests, huh? Here, take this.”
“Th-thank you…”
- He’s talking to won!
- He’s talking to won…?! He makes want to throw up.
- Karen’s acting like a host now LMFAO
- Look at how welcoming she is… she’s not a shadow, right?
- Mira and Seol… they’re calling each other by their nas… I’m jealous.
- Right? Man, Mira really succeeded in life, calling Snowman by his na like that hahaha
- What????
Seol sat down in a chair opposite Mira.
And then, he asked her a question.
“So why did you co to see ?”
Mira previously told Seol to see her in Gulia.
But even now, Seol had no idea why.
Slide.
She had a mysterious look on her face and placed a ring on the table.
“This is…”
“I want to exchange this for Kibo’s ring.”
She had co to see Seol to reclaim Kibo's symbol, the Wolf's Warning.
“Hm…”
Seol looked at the ring’s stats.
