Chapter: 96
"I didn't know you could make armor like this."
Outside the gates of Ifrit.
Avantgarde, standing at the crossroads, was looking at Hanbit's armor with curiosity.
[Armor of the Icy Fla]
Rank: 3
Grade: Unique
Wear Restrictions: Strength 30
Vitality: 30
Durability: 27
Defense: 31
Cold Resistance: 30 ( 30)
Description: An armor made using the stinger of a frost spider, leather with high cold resistance, and a fiery polish. Due to the layered structure of each material, it can be used in even stronger cold regions.
-Cold Resistance 60 lol
-This can actually be made;
-I thought you were trolling with the material combination.
An armor made from materials with opposite properties.
It was not particularly complicated; it was like a boiler.
The fiery polish used in the innermost layer continuously lowered the cold level. In any case, it was made exactly as desired.
"Oh, there you are."
At that mont, Kim Jaeha's figure appeared from beyond the crossroads. He had run over hurriedly, and for so reason, his expression was not good.
"Hyung, are you okay?"
"Huh? Why?"
"Your face doesn't look good."
"Ah..."
Kim Jaeha seed a little embarrassed at those words and touched his face.
The character's expression perfectly reflected reality. It was so detailed that even subtle emotions were revealed.
"Your expression is definitely dark. What happened?" Avantgarde asked in agreent.
Kim Jaeha shook his head and replied. "I guess it's because I haven't been sleeping well. I was in a hurry to finish."
"Ah... Okay, don't worry about it. Just get so sleep later."
His reason itself was understandable. If he had actually finished this quickly, he wouldn't have had ti to rest.
But Hanbit wasn't soone who couldn't distinguish between an expression caused by fatigue.
"Viewers, just a mont."
He turned off the sound going to the stream screen.
Looking at Kim Jaeha, he asked. "How's the company? Did they accept your resignation?"
"The resignation is fine. The CEO doesn't like to hold on to people who are leaving."
"If you say 'resignation'... that ans there's a problem."
"..."
Kim Jaeha's face hardened even more, as if he had been hit right on the mark. His fingers kept moving and he bit his lip slightly.
Anger and anxiety were clearly visible on his face.
"Hyung, Yeonwoo wants to create a company like a family."
"Huh?" Kim Jaeha looked puzzled at the sudden remark. However, it was exactly what he needed to hear right now.
"I an, you shouldn't think about your previous company. If there's a problem and you just swallow it, it's no different than before. Unless you want to make fun of Yeonwoo as the CEO of a new company."
"...I don't think it's the sa."
"Then tell what happened. If we think together, we might find an answer."
It was not only Yeonwoo's wish, but Hanbit was also sincere. He felt responsible for bringing Kim Jaeha to the company. Moreover, the aning of being a colleague was special to Hanbit.
"I'll do anything I can to help. I didn't join casually."
Avantgarde also prepared to listen to the story with a serious expression.
Looking back and forth between the two, Kim Jaeha hesitated. But it wasn't a problem he could solve alone from the beginning.
It would be better to prepare for anything, just in case.
Taking a deep breath, he looked at Hanbit and said, "My boss is threatening . He's going to sue you for assault."
"...Assault?"
"He's going to lie about what happened in front of the company entrance. But there's no CCTV left..." Kim Jaeha continued his explanation, showing him the ssage.
"That's completely unexpected."
"It's absurd from start to finish."
"He's truly evil. But if this goes public, it could be disadvantageous. Attacking the morality of a famous person is entertainnt for the masses."
Avantgarde, who knows a lot about what happens in RP, spoke.
It was common for popular stars to be buried by a single incident.
Even if everything was a misunderstanding, and there was no evidence, follow-up articles were usually not written.
"I'm sorry. I got you involved with such trash."
Kim Jaeha clenched his fist and apologized.
Of course, it wasn't his fault.
You can't bla soone for being dirty because of the trash.
"Hmm."
Hanbit pondered for a mont.
It wouldn't be a problem to provide sothing beneficial as the boss requested.
Even if he fed him with a spoon, he wouldn't be able to swallow it anyway.
But even that felt a bit of a waste.
"There was no one else at the company entrance at that ti, right? No parked cars or anything."
"We have a parking lot behind the building, so there wasn't any space to park. I don't rember seeing anyone passing by."
Kim Jaeha, who was enduring the boss's tyranny, didn't have the leisure to look around.
If things continued like this, it would definitely go according to the boss's plan.
"Ah, co to think of it."
Then, Avantgarde, who was recalling mories, spoke up.
"Didn't Mr. Roper say he was going sowhere after dinner?"
"...He did."
It was a scene that remained in Hanbit's mory.
After the four of them finished eating, Yeonwoo suddenly left saying he had sowhere to go.
At the ti, he hadn't questioned it, but it was a sudden action.
"I'll call him."
Curiosity aroused, Hanbit imdiately called Yeonwoo.
“Hyung? Aren't you broadcasting?”
A voice ca through in less than three seconds.
Hanbit imdiately told him what he had heard from Kim Jaeha.
After listening quietly, Yeonwoo let out a short sigh.
“Ah, so he's doing that kind of thing. I had a feeling sothing was off.”
"What? You knew?"
“No matter the reason, there was physical contact between you and the boss. And that guy fell down on his own. In cases like this, there's a high probability of problems arising.”
He had anticipated what would happen.
The problem was how to deal with it.
“You said you had sowhere to go then? Was it because of that?”
“My parents often say that running around to find evidence is also a skill. I suddenly rembered that.”
It was sothing Yeonwoo had heard very often from his lawyer parents.
Rembering that, Yeonwoo went to the scene after dinner.
“There was a delivery motorcycle on the road where the boss was standing. There was a vest with a body cam on it.”
"Body cam?"
“Delivery people sotis wear them. Anyway, I contacted the owner and bought the SD card. The contents were recorded with sound.”
The video Yeonwoo checked had been recorded from before Hanbit appeared.
It showed the boss punching Kim Jaeha in the chest and hurling insults.
"The boss is really sothing. I'm surprised."
“Hey, praise a little more.”
"Just ask Jaeha hyung. Anyway, now that we have evidence, I can do whatever I want, right?"
“What are you going to do this ti?”
Yeonwoo smiled wryly, sensing sothing in Hanbit’s voice.
Hanbit's lips curled as he said, "I'm going to give him a taste of his own dicine."
* * *
The three of them turned towards the city gate once more.
Kim Jaeha, having heard about the evidence, looked noticeably relieved.
"Are you a group? You have a new person with you."
As they approached the gate, a soldier who had been at the checkpoint the day before spoke to them.
"Hello. We have an introduction letter that we'd like to show you."
"Ah, let see."
Hanbit handed the soldier the introduction letter he had received in Edlen and his adventurer's card.
Taking them, the soldier's eyes widened slightly.
"So you have such a guarantor. I'm surprised because I'm from Edlen too."
"Really?"
"Yes. I heard the news, but it's truly unfortunate that Sir William was frad and the culprit was Brook."
The soldier, who spoke with a distant expression, went inside the waiting room.
Then he returned with a piece of parchnt.
"Take this and go to the central building. Show it to the guard at the entrance and they will guide you. Oh, and I'll take back the bracelet I gave you."
-?
-Why are you taking the bracelet?
-What is this? Give it back;
-What's the parchnt for?
The soldier took back the two black bracelets.
The reason was simple. He was not qualified to judge the visitors in front of him.
"Yes, thank you."
Receiving the parchnt, Hanbit entered the city with the two others.
Ding-!
[Episode 2: Crisis in Ifrit]
[Main Quest #1: Encounter]
You have arrived in the new city of Ifrit.
First, you must go to the city hall.
Objective: Go to the central building.
Reward: 10,000 gold, 2,000 experience points
Current progress: 0%
The quest window appeared as soon as they entered.
The episode started only after receiving the introduction letter.
"Why are they taking the bracelet? I've never seen sothing like this before."
"I never thought they would take it back either."
Even if you didn't progress through the episode, you would receive a bracelet when entering Ifrit. So this situation itself was strange.
"But what about that dwarf? Can he follow us into the city?" Kim Jaeha, looking around, asked cautiously.
Although he hadn't seen him since their eting, there was no need to worry.
"There's another way, so he'll be able to follow. Oh, here, you hold this."
Hanbit handed over the dog tag-shaped token he had been carrying since yesterday.
Kim Jaeha looked puzzled and said, "Why? You can keep it."
"It's better if the person who will learn blacksmithing directly has it. Anyway, keep it well."
"Okay, got it."
Nodding, Kim Jaeha put the plate into his inventory. Avantgarde, who was walking behind, approached slowly.
"How are you going to proceed? Since you'll only receive the bracelet at the city hall, are you going to tackle blacksmithing right away?"
"Ah, do you know who decides the color of the bracelet?"
"Isn't there a person in charge on the third floor of the city hall? I think they're called the immigration officer..." Avantgarde said what he knew.
It wasn't wrong, but the person they were going to et wasn't in such a position.
Hanbit looked at the towering blue and white building in the center and said, "The person we're going to et now is the mayor of Ifrit."
