Hwoooong-
Lee Shin lightly swung the Night Sky he was holding in the yard behind the blacksmith's shop.
Is this what they call a beloved weapon?
Even though it was the first ti he was holding and swinging it, he didn't feel any sense of incongruity.
On the contrary, he felt a sense of unity, as if it had taken root in his hand.
Lee Shin, thinking that it was fun to swing a spear after a long ti, pierced and cut through the empty air as his heart desired.
It was true that a bident was a spear specialized for stabbing, but that didn't an it didn't have a blade, so it was possible to cut things as well.
Woong-
While Lee Shin was swinging his spear at the empty air to his heart's content, a transparent spear ki naturally blossod over the Night Sky, which was drawing a black trajectory in the empty air, and began to envelop the spearhead.
The spear ki that enveloped the Night Sky repeatedly turned red and then golden, creating more diverse trajectories.
Hwareureuk-
Pajijik-
From within those two trajectories, flas and lightning flowed out and began to fill the surrounding space.
And so, the flas and lightning, red and gold, that were slowly filling that space.
Hwoooong--!!!
They soon mixed into one, then split as if the mixing had been a lie, and disappeared as if it were a lie.
Only the existence of Lee Shin at its center, the Night Sky held in his hand, and the peculiar form of spear ki that seed to be a mixture of red and gold enveloping the Night Sky, proved that the phenonon from a mont ago was not a lie.
Lee Shin was fascinated by the peculiar form of materialized ki that looked red or golden depending on the angle.
"This is strange. It's beco this much more comfortable just by changing one weapon. And the consumption of internal energy has also decreased significantly."
"Hmph! Of course, the one you're holding now is a masterpiece among masterpieces that I made."
Mairiph, who heard Lee Shin's words, smiled triumphantly.
"It's a guy so good that most weapons can't even be ntioned in the sa breath. To be honest, I'm curious how I was able to make such a guy with my own hands."
"Are you bragging about that now?"
Lee Shin chuckled at Mairiph's words.
"Don't worry. If soone asks who made it, I'll properly say that Mairiph of the [Red Hamr] clan made it. You won't be called a liar even if you go around telling everyone you made this."
"Don't say sothing so obvious as if you're doing
a favor! You're such an annoying guy."
Mairiph, who had lightly raised the corners of his mouth following Lee Shin, chugged the beer he had set aside and said with a serious gaze.
"As you've felt, that guy has his own ego. He'll grow as ti passes and he has various experiences."
"Sohow, it seems to have a bit of a nasty personality, just like the person who made it."
"It ca out like that because of the blood you shed. You annoying guy."
Mairiph frowned, then sighed and began to explain again.
"Anyway! That guy is just a newborn kid. He might have his shortcomings, but he'll change in all sorts of ways depending on what you do in the future. So don't tarnish the na of the one who made the weapon, and take good care of it! Got it!"
Lee Shin nodded his head, roughly letting Mairiph's words flow past him.
Still, since he had heard roughly, Lee Shin could guess what the [???] of the Night Sky he had seen through the system ant.
'Does it an that as it grows, a skill that suits
will naturally be created? Hmm, it's an unexpected situation, but it's not bad.'
Lee Shin decided to take it easy.
Since there were plenty of guys he had to fight, there would be no shortage of guys to show the Night Sky.
"By the way, since the shaft is made of iron, it seems like it might slip from my hand if I'm not careful because of blood or sweat. Do you have any bandages or sothing?"
"Why bandages?"
"I'm thinking of wrapping it around the shaft so it doesn't slip from my hand."
"…Don't think about wrapping sothing strange on it and just give it to . I have so good leather straps, so I'll finish it up properly."
Mairiph grumbled that he was a guy who didn't even know that the life of a luxury item is in the details, then wrapped the shaft of the Night Sky with a pure white leather strap he had gotten from sowhere.
The pure white leather strap was wrapped tightly around the shaft and was shaking like a tail at the end of the shaft, and it looked sowhat cool, so Lee Shin smiled with satisfaction.
"But if you use white leather, won't the color change or sothing if it gets blood on it later?"
"Don't compare it to such shabby leather. It's a leather that won't get dirty even if you're determined to dirty it."
"Really?"
At Mairiph's words, a wicked curiosity stirred within Lee Shin, but he decided to just let it go.
No matter how much of a Lee Shin he was, he didn't really want to throw a new weapon on the ground or intentionally get blood on it.
"Is that Hyung-nim's new weapon?"
At that mont, soone from beyond the yard called out to Lee Shin.
Lee Shin turned around at the sound of soone calling him.
He wasn't particularly surprised since he had already felt it through his ki sense.
Where Lee Shin had turned around, five people with sparkling eyes were standing, holding their respective weapons.
Lee Shin said to them with a bright smile.
"Your weapons look good."
At Lee Shin's words, the five of them shook their weapons as if boasting.
Eun Yeonwoo, a belt containing ten sharply shining silver daggers.
Lee Hyunseok, an arm wrapped in a long, golden-shining chain.
Lee Hyunyoung, a pink rapier with the beauty of a ceremonial weapon.
Lee Sieun, two swords with black and white blades respectively.
Lee Jieun, three short staffs mixed with blue and white.
Seeing that, Lee Shin sincerely congratulated them.
He was happy with them as he saw them happy.
Grin-
Because that would make the gift Lee Shin had prepared for them in secret shine even more.
"Now, shall we go out?"
Lee Shin said, dusting off the dust on his body with an artifact containing cleaning magic.
At Lee Shin's words, they nodded their heads with a beaming smile, without much thought.
And watching them, Lee Shin also smiled beamingly and recalled the last two ssages he had seen before entering the World Dungeon.
Tiger – I was bored anyway, so let's go. But are Yeonwoo and Hyunseok there too?
Poisonous Spider – I'm on my way now, so just wait! This ti, I'll win so perfectly that the word 'I lost' will co out of your mouth, Oppa!
'It's been quite a while since I entered the World Dungeon, so both of them must be here already.'
He had also told them the location was in front of the World Dungeon, so they wouldn't get confused.
Grin-
"I'm thinking of changing my clothes, do you want to eat sothing? I bought a lot."
For reference, the na of the course Lee Shin had prepared was 'The Last Supper'.
Lee Shin spread various dishes on the table and humd a light tune.
O-ssak-
"Wh-what is it?"
"Is it because we were in a hot blacksmith's shop and ca out?"
The five who were laughing without knowing anything suddenly shivered from a sudden chill.
◎ ◎ ◎
"By the way, ahjussi, why do you dress like that when you have a decent face?"
When the food Lee Shin had brought was starting to run out, Lee Hyunyoung suddenly said, looking at him.
Right now, Lee Shin had taken off the clothes that had beco rags from his fight with Arachne and was wearing new clothes he had bought on the way.
"Huh? Why, is sothing strange?"
"On the contrary, it would be faster to find a part that isn't strange."
At Lee Hyunyoung's direct words, Lee Shin looked at the clothes he was wearing and said.
"Aren't skulls cool?"
Lee Shin was wearing light gray cargo pants that were tightened at the ankles with elastic bands and a black hoodie.
The problem was all the skulls that were on the front and back of the hoodie Lee Shin was wearing.
"I bought it thinking it suited
well."
"No, certainly, if you put it that way, it does suit you well, but…"
At Lee Shin's words, Lee Hyunyoung was flustered and stamred.
Because if you were to ask whether it suited him or not, it was clearly the forr.
It was definitely a peculiar fashion.
But it suited Lee Shin so well.
A peculiar hair of red-dyed hair and a golden bridge.
Sharp eyes that added sharpness and playfulness to a handso face.
Lee Shin's appearance was what could be called the standard of the so-called 'bad boy' style.
Perhaps because of that, even though it was a strange outfit that should have been hard to pull off, it suited Lee Shin perfectly, like it was made for him.
"…Agh, I don't know! Stop wearing clothes like that and go shopping with
at the departnt store later!"
"Do you have money? Isn't that all your brother's money?"
"I've been saving up all my allowance! And I'm trying to help you because you have no eye for clothes, so why are you like this! You don't trust the eyes of an active middle school girl?!"
As Lee Hyunyoung ca out like this, Lee Shin just nodded his head roughly.
For Lee Shin, who often tore his clothes, the more clothes, the better.
"Well, alright, let's go later."
"You, you promised!"
"Alright!"
At Lee Shin's words, Lee Hyunyoung smiled brightly and sat down.
Eun Yeonwoo and Lee Hyunseok looked at the two with complicated eyes, Lee Sieun looked with slightly jealous eyes, and Lee Jieun looked with disbelief.
'Well, I have more money than I can spend, so I'll just buy out the whole store. But do clothing stores deliver?'
Lee Shin ignored them and was just lost in his own world.
"Then let's get up now."
"Yes."
They put the leftover trash into their respective inventories and went out of the World Dungeon.
"Aah!"
As they ca out, two people from a cafe in the distance rushed at Lee Shin like the wind.
"Ah, I found you! Oppa! Why are you coming out now! I've been waiting here with this guy for a long ti!"
One was a beautiful woman with purple hair, wearing a loose oversized outfit that barely covered her thighs.
"Wow! Yeonwoo, Hyunseok, hello! It's been a while! And Hyung, it's been a while too!"
The other was a handso man with a friendly impression, with green curly hair, wearing a simple black shirt.
"Didn't you guys get your faces exposed? You've been hiding well."
"Ah, it's thanks to the artifact I received from old man Crowley. It has a function that distorts people's perception and eliminates one's presence."
At Lee Shin's words, Baek Hyunwoo tapped the glasses he was wearing with his finger.
"But how did you get here so quickly from Germany?"
"My friend is pretty amazing, so I begged him to lend
a fighter jet. I took that and a boat, and it was quick."
While Lee Shin was talking with the two.
"Hah. I should have known when he said he would just give
the weapon."
"No wonder my luck was so good today."
The mont they saw Baek Hyunwoo, Eun Yeonwoo and Lee Hyunseok, who had figured out the whole situation, looked at the weapons in their hands with eyes mixed with love and hate.
They had figured out why Lee Shin had called them.
"Oppas, what's wrong all of a sudden?"
"What's wrong?"
"What, does your stomach hurt or sothing?"
The other three looked at the two with worried gazes as they suddenly made expressions as if their souls had left them.
At that, when the two were about to explain the situation.
"Ah, right. Let
ask you a favor."
As if to snatch the words the two were about to say, Lee Shin intervened and said.
"Play with these guys for a bit. Their confidence is piercing the sky because they got new weapons, but I'm a little busy."
No, that was definitely snatching their words.
Because Lee Shin was saying it to Eun Yeonwoo and Lee Hyunseok with playfully curved eyes.
When you got your weapons, you felt like there was nothing to be afraid of in the world and you could do anything, right?
Then shall we see if that's really true now?
The two were convinced that the reason Lee Shin had made them weapons was this, to see their faces now.
