Lesson 37. It’s Vacation, Let Rest - 4

Kang Eun-young looked at Ban Yu-won with a soft gaze and said, “You were planning to broadcast from Earth too, weren’t you?”

“Well, I can’t just leave the channel idle for two months.”

Though he said this, if all the myths had remained on Earth, the Rebellion channel would have gone on a two-month hiatus. However, the Earth he returned to had undergone dinsional evolution, and all information related to the Babel Tower’s conquest had been erased, so there was no reason to hesitate in uploading videos.

“But you’re saying my sister shouldn’t be exposed on the channel.”

“…Honestly, I didn’t want to let her be active like that.”

Ban Yu-won sighed, clutching his head at his mother’s words. To attract viewers, a strong and charming figure was necessary. As much as he hated to admit it, Ban Yu-mi was once an iconic figure that glued the entire nation to their TVs, cheering for her. It wasn’t just her fencing skills; her beauty played a crucial role. Ban Yu-won was confident that her beauty would appeal to the world, or even across dinsions.

‘So, I was planning to make this video series with my sister as the main focus…’

But now, he was told she couldn’t be exposed in the videos. By now, Ban Yu-won had a pretty good guess of the situation.

“Alright, I’ll do that.”

“Aren’t you going to ask why?”

“If it’s sothing I need to know now, then I’ll listen.”

Kang Eun-young widened her eyes in surprise at Ban Yu-won’s response. “Son, you’ve changed a lot. You’ve grown up.”

“Not quite there yet.”

If he were truly an adult, he would be able to handle both his mother and sister more skillfully. Since he couldn’t, Ban Yu-won was still just halfway there.

“If you ever need my help, just say the word, Mom.”

“Oh, you say the funniest things. As long as things stay like this, I couldn’t ask for more.”

Kang Eun-young laughed heartily, patting his shoulder. Yet, he could clearly see his mother’s inner thoughts, so―. He simply shrugged his shoulders, unable to say anything.

Dungeons appear frequently in worlds with high mana levels, and the higher the mana density, the more difficult the dungeon becos. Since a dungeon itself is a mass of mana, leaving it unattended will lead to the ergence of more challenging dungeons. When too many dungeons gather in a certain area, Resonance occurs, leading to a phenonon known as a Monster Wave, a terrifying event.

Even the Union Academy, which gathers the world’s top talents, emphasized the seriousness of Monster Waves in special activities for all students, indicating that the greatest enemy of mana civilizations is not dinsional pirates or Constellations, but the Infection Wave.

“The G-rank dungeon that appeared in Korea is right in the middle of Gangnam.”

“The dungeon finally did what no one else could—lower Gangnam’s real estate prices.”

Ban Yu-won imdiately thought of that when he heard about the dungeon in Gangnam, but Ban Yu-mi’s response was even more remarkable.

“Grandpa tried to buy up everything when the prices hit rock bottom, but governnt regulations ant he could only get a little.”

“So he did manage to get so…”

Ban Yu-won thought it was impressive that his grandfather bet on conquering a G-rank dungeon without hesitation.

“Is there any information on the dungeon?”

“No. No one has co out after going in.”

Then what’s the point of a briefing? Ban Yu-won thought incredulously, but his long-haired sister, Kang Mi-yeon, smirked and said, “People care about appearances. We need to show that we’re tightly knit and moving as one to satisfy everyone.”

“I think we need to set so guidelines.”

Yu Ji-na, the youngest in the group (though only by a year) and with a squirrel-like impression due to her small stature, raised her hand timidly.

“I can’t hold out in there. But if I don’t go in, it looks bad, so I have to go in with you…”

“Then why not be a porter? I doubt anyone would volunteer to be a porter in a G-rank dungeon.”

Lee Hyun-ji’s offhand comnt made Ban Yu-won tilt his head.

“Is that necessary?”

“Do you plan to enter the dungeon empty-handed, you fool?”

A true sister never misses a chance to tease her brother. Ban Yu-mi quickly jabbed at Ban Yu-won, but he dodged it with a flashy ducking maneuver and countered.

“I have an inventory, rember?”

“Oh.”

An inventory, a unique subspace storage connected to an individual. With it, there’s no need for a porter since it can store a lot without showing any signs of being full.

The entire executive team of Oculus Ruber fell silent. Ban Yu-won grinned and leaned in towards his sister. “So, who’s the fool now?”

“Sh-shut up… It’s weird to have sothing that only exists in fantasy.”

“You’ve watched all our channel videos.”

“I was curious every ti I watched the videos. Not every Union student has an inventory, right?”

At Yu Ji-na’s question, Ban Yu-won turned to Luciel and asked, “How many had it?”

“Um, Mira and the student council president definitely had it. Oh, and Ayre too.”

“Co to think of it, I heard that by the ti you reach the graduating class, it’s given to the top 5%.”

“Wow.”

Ban Yu-won’s possession of an inventory was proof that he wasn’t just the best on Earth but also one of the most talented at Union Academy. And it was Eve who made that possible. Thanks to Eve and his followers, he was achieving feats impossible for freshn, proving the professors who awarded him the inventory were right.

“So, all four of you, including my sister, are going into the dungeon?”

“No matter the reality, we can’t give the impression that we’re leaving everything to you. Besides, Mi-yeon and I can probably hold our own in a G-rank dungeon.”

“Ban Yu-mi, isn’t that a bit much?”

Lee Hyun-ji, who was naturally dissed, shouted, but no one paid attention. Ban Yu-mi, the guild master, was level 50, and the sub-master, Kang Mi-yeon, was level 43. In contrast, Lee Hyun-ji and Yu Ji-na were in their late 30s and had no unique powers, so they couldn’t complain about being treated like baggage.

“Mi-yeon’s unique power is excellent for defense, so you and Ji-na should stay behind her.”

“What is Mi-yeon’s unique power?”

“Uh? That’s―.”

“Oh…”

Kang Mi-yeon suddenly let out a sigh of admiration. As everyone’s eyes turned to her, she shook her head, saying it was nothing, but Lee Hyun-ji, who realized the reason, smirked.

“Feels good to be called ‘sister’ by a handso guy, huh? Right?”

“Shh.”

Kang Mi-yeon covered Lee Hyun-ji’s mouth and cleared her throat before speaking. “My power isn’t much. It’s called ‘Unforgettable Trace.’”

“An unforgettable trace… That’s poetic.”

“Yeah, but the ability itself is quite straightforward. It’s a power that can materialize the trajectory of my movents.”

For example, Kang Mi-yeon drew her hand vertically through the air. The path her hand traced glowed a soft blue, forming a gentle curve. Ban Yu-won admired how the concept of her movent—speed, force, and such—was maintained temporarily. Anything touching it would likely take damage.

“That’s definitely useful for defense.”

“I can control it, so it’s quite handy for offense too.”

“Pfft—like a ga finishing move, right?”

Lee Hyun-ji, who had finally escaped Kang Mi-yeon’s grasp, added an explanation. Apparently, she could send a crescent-shaped sharp trajectory created by swinging her sword to bombard enemies.

Wow, that’s a real finishing move!

“It’s weak compared to Yu-mi’s power, though.”

“That’s an unfair comparison, Mi-yeon.”

“Yu-mi is more like a boss monster than a playable character.”

“Want to get beaten by a boss monster?”

As Ban Yu-mi stood up abruptly, Yu Ji-na and Lee Hyun-ji shrieked and fled. Watching the slender beauties playfully banter, Ban Yu-won thought to himself.

“I need to do so enhancents before we go.”

“Enhancents?”

Ban Yu-mi froze in place.

“Yeah, I’ll personally enhance you, sis. As for the others… let’s enhance their weapons and armor. That should be enough for a G-rank dungeon.”

“Ban Yu-won, what do you an by personal enhancent? Oh, is it like before when you infused magic power directly?”

“Infuse magic power directly? Wait, can you explain that in more detail? How do you inject it? With what? In what way?”

“Hyun-ji, stop imagining things!”

“Showing is faster.”

Ban Yu-won took out a Code Core from his inventory, which he used to store various concepts. When Life is accumulated to a certain level, absorbing Life or Body from those much weaker than oneself doesn’t change the depth. Instead of wasting it, he divided it among several Code Cores for continuous collection.

For example, the Life he collected in bulk from the Union Academy’s off-campus dungeons with the help of his followers could only grow to a depth of 100, so he consolidated it into one. Then, he prepared another for growth up to depth 200, and so on.

He had several such cores, and the one he took out now contained core concepts that could grow beyond depth 500.

“Ban Yu-mi, co here.”

“You’re getting cheeky.”

Despite grumbling, Ban Yu-mi approached him. Ignoring the curious eyes of the guild executives, Ban Yu-won extracted a large amount of Life, Magic Power, and Body from the core (Soul was only used when creating followers) and infused them into Ban Yu-mi. Just like when he first granted her magic power, she absorbed it without any resistance.

“…Huh?”

The change was too significant to ignore. Ban Yu-mi, who was concentrating with her eyes closed, suddenly opened them wide in shock.

“I’m level 60 now?!”

“What?!”

“You gained 10 levels? Seriously?”

“How is that possible…?”

“And that’s not all. Your status should have increased even more.”

“Yeah…”

So, level 60 is the limit, huh? Ban Yu-won smacked his lips and put the core away. If he emptied the core of all its concepts, further growth might be possible, but the efficiency would be too low. It’s better to save those concepts for a potential new follower in the future.

“Wow.”

“That’s insane…”

“Oh, I can only directly raise my sister’s level because she’s family. My power can’t be used on those I’m not closely connected to.”

“That’s why it’s possible for too.”

Ban Yu-won kindly explained to the executives, who were alternating between shock and envy, as they gazed at him and his sister. Luciel added further explanation. Understanding the situation, they looked at Ban Yu-won and his sister with a mix of astonishnt and envy, biting their lips.

“Wow, even though I’ve heard it, it’s hard to believe… Yu-won is truly amazing…”

“He’s Earth’s representative, after all. He wouldn’t be the representative for nothing…”

“Because the relationship… is deep.”

While Lee Hyun-ji and Yu Ji-na were simply in awe, Kang Mi-yeon, who was looking at Ban Yu-mi with a peculiar gaze, seed to be thinking sothing different. At that mont, a thought struck Ban Yu-won as well.

From the mont he awakened his abilities, Ban Yu-won could interfere with Ban Yu-mi’s internal concepts without any issues. At the ti, he thought it was because they were family, but based on his mother’s words, perhaps the two of them were…

Considering the reason he could later interfere with Luciel’s internal concepts, maybe…

Ban Yu-won stopped his train of thought there. It was more than he could handle at the mont.

“Ahem, anyway.”

In the silence that followed, Ban Yu-won cleared his throat to break the tension and spoke. “If we could handle F-rank at level 50, then level 60 should be fine for G-rank. As I ntioned earlier, I can’t directly raise your levels, so instead, we’ll enhance your equipnt.”

“Are you really going to do that for us? We have nothing to offer in return…”

“I can at least give that much to my sister’s friends. It’s not a big deal.”

Ban Yu-won winked as he spoke. “So, what kind of swords do you all use?”

“I thought you’d make us rapiers since we’re fencers.”

“Do you think I’d say that after seeing my sister?”

Modern fencing doesn’t involve rapier swordsmanship, and even if it did, sports fencing wouldn’t be effective against monsters. In reality, Ban Yu-mi’s sparring was primarily based on extrely practical swordsmanship influenced by Dokgo Yeon, and the executives of Oculus Ruber, who fought alongside her, wouldn’t be foolish enough to stick to fencing.

Feeling satisfied with his reasoning, Ban Yu-won looked at them, but for so reason, Lee Hyun-ji blushed and turned her head away from his gaze.

“I use a rapier, though…”

“What, a rapier after all?”

“It just seems strong for thrusting…!”

“To be honest, I’ve never been picky about weapon types.”

Yu Ji-na, stepping in for Lee Hyun-ji, said with a wry smile.

“Earth doesn’t have the technology to mass-produce artifacts like Union does. Modern technology and magic equipnt manufacturing are entirely different.”

“That’s true for Union too. Only Yu-won can mass-produce artifacts.”

“Anyway, we mostly use what drops in dungeons, so… you know? I even learned dagger techniques because the dagger I got from an F-rank dungeon was so good.”

“Yeah, sa here.”

True warriors of the battlefield who use whatever they can get their hands on were right here.

“But if we’re making sothing new, a longsword would be nice. A blade that’s wide enough, usable with both hands… a bastard sword?”

“Oh, too!”

“Bastard sword, sounds good.”

Ban Yu-won’s Executioner’s Longsword was also a bastard sword, and all twenty-five swords that made up the Rain Sword were bastard swords too. They’re easy to use and strong. There’s no reason not to use them.

“Then Hyun-ji, a rapier, and Ji-na and Ban Yu-mi, bastard swords.”

“Ugh.”

“Oh, this…”

“…?”

As Ban Yu-won listed the types of weapons he’d make, each of them reacted differently, making him take a cautious half-step back. But they weren’t in a position to care about that.

“Now I understand Yu-mi’s feelings a bit. If soone like Yu-won called ‘sister’ and stuck to , I’d beco a brocon right away…”

“Honestly, I’m a bit jealous. I want to be a sister too…”

It turned out that it was because he called them “sister.” Ban Yu-won shrugged, thinking of Mina, who had sent him to Earth. Maybe it’s similar to how guys want to be called “oppa” by pretty girls.

‘I’m really glad my illusions about won were shattered long ago.’

Though slightly shattered, it’s not like calling them would wear them out, so he might as well call them what they want. Ignoring Ban Yu-mi’s dagger-like glare at her colleagues, Ban Yu-won turned his attention to Kang Mi-yeon.

“What about you, Mi-yeon?”

“Well… a greatsword. My physical abilities are enhanced, so there’s no problem wielding it, and nothing beats a greatsword for creating large trajectories.”

“Oh, then there’s no need to make you a new one. I just happen to have one left over.”

“Happen to?”

“Yes. I got a better one recently, so I don’t need the old one anymore. But that doesn’t an it’s of poor quality. After all…”

It’s a relic.

As Ban Yu-won took out the greatsword from his inventory, everyone present, including Kang Mi-yeon, was left speechless. Anyone who could handle mana could feel the extraordinary aura emanating from the greatsword. The group was overwheld by the greatsword while simultaneously thinking.

If this is unnecessary, then what kind of greatsword did he get this ti…?
