Chapter 102
The next morning.
Jeong-Hoon was sitting in a cafe, not in the ga.
He ordered a cappuccino and sipped it, and soon Ha-Jin arrived.
“Hoon!”
“Oh, you’re here?”
“Yeah. But what’s the occasion today? You asked to et in real life, not in the ga.”
“Ah, I wanted to talk about the next content.”
“We haven’t even uploaded the Ruined City video yet.”
“Yeah.”
Jeong-Hoon had no intention of letting the ‘Transcendent Enhancent: Legendary’ he had just obtained go to waste.
Even though he had twisted Iwase Haruto’s future, Iwase was still a hidden class ‘Explorer Enhancer’ and would maintain his high value.
Honestly, he didn’t care what happened to that guy’s value, but Jeong-Hoon was planning to step into that area from now on.
‘Obtain the Master Enhancer title.’
Master Enhancer.
It was also a unique title that only one person in New World could have.
In his previous life, Iwase Haruto had taken that title.
This was because no one else could et the conditions.
[Master Enhancer]
– Normal (Fully Enhanced) 0/10,000
– Rare (Fully Enhanced) 0/10,000
– Epic (Fully Enhanced) 0/10,000
– Unique (Fully Enhanced) 0/1,000
– Legendary (Fully Enhanced) 0/100
Only by fulfilling these absurd conditions could one obtain that title.
‘I have to get it.’
Only with that title could he quickly gain the qualification to enhance equipnt of Legendary grade or higher in the future.
It was one of the titles necessary to clear the ga.
That’s why he had called Ha-Jin here today.
“Oh, what’s the next content?”
Curiosity filled Ha-Jin’s eyes.
“You know I got the Ancient Recipe, right?”
“Yeah.”
The reward given to Jeong-Hoon for being the first to clear the Ruined City.
But it was an old recipe, so severely damaged that it was impossible to decipher.
If it had been up to Ha-Jin, he would have chosen the level-up instead of the recipe.
“I succeeded in deciphering it.”
Ha-Jin’s eyes widened at Jeong-Hoon’s words.
“What… You crazy?!”
Ha-Jin jumped up from his seat in surprise.
“Hey, shh. Everyone will hear you.”
Ha-Jin hurriedly sat back down when Jeong-Hoon gestured for him to be quiet.
“You deciphered it…? So what kind of recipe was it?”
“It was a recipe that allowed you to acquire a skill.”
“…There’s a recipe like that?”
Wasn’t that usually called a skill book, not a recipe?
“It’s sothing you can only get by fulfilling certain conditions.”
“Aha.”
So it ant that the power of a skill book was sealed within the recipe.
Ha-Jin nodded as if he understood.
Jeong-Hoon continued,
“But that skill is pretty good.”
“Really?”
“Yeah. It’s a skill that allows you to enhance equipnt.”
“Enhance equipnt?”
Ha-Jin’s eyebrows furrowed slightly at the unexpected skill.
“Don’t be surprised when you hear this.”
Jeong-Hoon honestly explained the effects of the skill.
For example, the success rate was 100% for Normal and Rare, 80% for Epic, 60% for Unique, and 30% for Legendary.
Ha-Jin’s face changed in a way that was quite amusing to see.
“Wow… Shit… If that’s true, it’s insane…”
“Right?”
“I’m suddenly getting annoyed. Why does all the luck go to you?”
Ha-Jin muttered, feeling a sense of self-deprecation.
“Anyway, I’m planning to use this skill for content.”
“…You an you’re going to reveal the skill?”
“No.”
“Then?”
“I’m thinking of creating an enhancent exchange and gathering a lot of custors.”
The exchange system, only allowed for enhancers.
Unlike exchanges where you trade items, it was a system where you put pure enhancent stones, equipnt, and paynt into an exchange registered by an enhancer and receive the results within 24 hours.
“Isn’t that impossible? You can’t open an exchange system.”
Even though Jeong-Hoon had obtained the enhancent skill, he was essentially a martial artist.
So it was impossible for him to open an exchange system.
“It’s okay. I have a way.”
Jeong-Hoon grinned.
“…You have a way?”
“Yes.”
* * *
Ho-Yeong Guild.
Lounge.
Jeong-Hoon and Yoo Na-Eun, an enhancer belonging to Ho-Yeong Guild, were sitting facing each other in the guild’s lounge.
===
[Player Information]
– Nickna: GentleTouch
– Level: 254
– Class: Illusion Enhancer (3rd class)
===
Although not a hidden class, she was an Epic grade Illusion Enhancer.
She was in charge of repairing and enhancing Ho-Yeong’s equipnt overall.
So why was Yoo Na-Eun here?
“You obtained an enhancent skill…?”
“Yes.”
It was because she had heard the absurd story that a user who wasn’t even an enhancer had obtained an enhancent skill.
If it weren’t for Yeo Min-Ji, she would have dismissed it as nonsense and ignored it. But since Yeo Min-Ji had actively arranged the eting, she had no choice but to attend.
“Then, shall I give you this equipnt and enhancent stone to try enhancing?”
The equipnt and enhancent stone that Yoo Na-Eun handed over were a Normal grade knuckle and a Normal grade enhancent stone.
Honestly, she couldn’t believe it until she saw it with her own eyes.
If the enhancent attempt succeeded, a golden effect would flash once, and if it failed, a black effect would flash once.
And as Jeong-Hoon attempted the enhancent, a golden effect flashed once.
[Enhancent successful.]
The enhancent was successful.
Yoo Na-Eun looked at the knuckle that Jeong-Hoon had enhanced with astonished eyes.
[Steel Knuckles ( 1)]
The Steel Knuckles, which had no enhancents, now had a ‘ 1’ attached to them.
“It’s real…? H-How is this possible?!”
It was enhanced.
Yoo Na-Eun checked Jeong-Hoon’s information again.
===
[Player Information]
– Nickna: Hoon
– Level: 164
– Class: Interdiate Martial Artist (2nd class)
===
A level 164 martial artist who had completed his second class advancent.
Even though the ‘Interdiate Martial Artist’ was hidden by the hidden class blind system, the fact that he had used a skill unique to enhancers was so shocking that she couldn’t even speak properly.
“Is this enough?”
“…Yes. So, what’s the reason you called here?”
“Please write a letter of recomndation in your na. I’ll go and take the test myself and open the system.”
There was a way to open an exchange even if you weren’t an enhancer.
In fact, this was the thod that most users used when New World beca reality, and he planned to open the exchange earlier by bringing that ti forward.
‘If I enhance other people’s equipnt, I’ll naturally be able to et the conditions for the title.’
Legendary would take a bit longer, but since there was no way to obtain higher-grade equipnt right now anyway, he decided to think about it slowly.
“A letter of recomndation? Why would you need that?”
Yoo Na-Eun didn’t quite understand.
She had never heard of being able to open an exchange system with just a letter of recomndation.
“I heard you’re the greatest enhancer in Ho-Yeong.”
“…That’s not true.”
Yoo Na-Eun denied the complint, but the corners of her mouth twitched slightly.
“Of course, if it doesn’t work, I’ll give up imdiately. But you never know, right?”
Jeong-Hoon asked again.
“…Alright. But you have to give up imdiately if it doesn’t work.”
“Yes.”
“And one more thing, please co to Ho-Yeong once a week to help with enhancent work.”
“No. I’ll co 3-4 tis if I have ti.”
To get the title, he had to do as many enhancents as possible.
There was no reason to refuse when she was offering him a chance to enhance.
“Ah, that’s fine. Ho-Yeong won’t be short on manpower.”
“Alright.”
Yoo Na-Eun quickly wrote a letter of recomndation.
“Is this enough?”
“You need to stamp it.”
“Stamp…?”
“Yes. I believe enhancers have an engraving skill after their class advancent. Please use that engraving on the letter of recomndation.”
“…You’re asking for a lot. Alright.”
Yoo Na-Eun engraved the letter of recomndation and handed it back to him.
“Thank you.”
With this, he had gained the opportunity to walk the path of an enhancer.
* * *
“Did it go well?”
Yeo Min-Ji was waiting for Jeong-Hoon outside the building.
“Yes. Thanks to you, it went very well.”
“That’s a relief.”
Yeo Min-Ji smiled.
She was happy that she could be of help to Jeong-Hoon.
When he first said he was looking for an enhancer of Epic grade or higher, she imdiately thought of Yoo Na-Eun. Fortunately, Yoo Na-Eun was free and readily agreed to et Jeong-Hoon.
“Then I’ll be on my way.”
“Ah, if you don’t mind, could you take a look at my martial arts?”
Her eyes lit up with passion.
All of this was for the ultimate martial arts.
She had seen Jeong-Hoon’s martial arts up close, and she was filled with the desire to make his martial arts completely her own.
“Sure. Then I’ll take a look for a mont.”
Jeong-Hoon headed to the training ground with Yeo Min-Ji.
And that day, the training ground was filled with the sound of nagging.
* * *
Like the Alchemist’s Street, Märchen Kingdom also had an Enhancer’s Street.
Enhancers gathered there, crafting various equipnt and submitting them to the kingdom’s capital and various territories assigned to the kingdom. They also repaired and enhanced broken equipnt and sent them back.
Perhaps that’s why the Enhancer’s Street was much wealthier than the Alchemist’s Street.
“Oh! Are you a custor?”
“If you’re interested, co into our shop and take a look at our equipnt!”
“Hey, mister! What you’re wearing looks extraordinary.”
Unlike the alchemists, the enhancers were quite friendly even to strangers.
Of course, it was thanks to the Mukho that Jeong-Hoon was wearing.
As enhancers, they had repeatedly looked at and touched various pieces of equipnt countless tis.
So they could sowhat tell that Mukho was not an ordinary item just by looking at it.
[Humph, extraordinary my ass. I’m an existence you guys can’t even touch in your entire lives!]
Mukho shouted proudly at them.
‘He’s right.’
[Huh? Why aren’t you arguing?]
‘If you only say the right things, there’s no reason for to argue, is there?’
[Really? I always say the right things, though? And you always interrupt with killer tackles. If I had shins, they’d be crushed to dust.]
‘Okay, okay, stop the nonsense.’
Jeong-Hoon stopped walking.
In front of him was the Enchanter’s Hall.
When he reached level 200, it was a necessary course to visit for his 3rd class advancent.
“Who’s there!”
Without even knocking, the closed door opened and a giant man, at least 2 ters tall, appeared.
He had white hair and wrinkles all over his face, but his broad shoulders and sturdy muscles showed how diligently he had trained.
===
[NPC Information]
– Nickna: Ruben
– Level: 300
– Class: Blacksmith Instructor
===
‘I ca to the right place.’
He was the NPC in charge of the 3rd class advancent.
But he was a blacksmith, not an enhancer.
Unlike blacksmiths, who had to endure manual labor, enhancers could instantly finish enhancents and repairs with the system.
Therefore, blacksmiths were practically a minority.
In such a situation, if a blacksmith was level 300…
‘It ans he has trendous pride in being a blacksmith.’
Jeong-Hoon quickly grasped Ruben’s characteristics.
“I ca to learn blacksmithing skills.”
“Not enhancing? Well, that’s impossible since you haven’t even learned enhancing skills.”
“Yes.”
“But still, no. You’re already walking a different path. There’s no need for you to co this way.”
Ruben firmly refused.
He was about to close the door without hesitation, and Jeong-Hoon quickly took out the letter of recomndation Yoo Na-Eun had written for him.
“Take a look at this.”
“Hmm?”
A letter of recomndation from an enhancer of Epic grade or higher.
And the enhancent skill that Jeong-Hoon himself possessed.
Since he t both conditions, the quest should appear.
Right now.
After skimming through the letter of recomndation, a rainbow-colored question mark blinked above Ruben’s head.
