Early morning.
It wasn't the chirping of birds or the dim light of dawn streaming through the blackout curtains that woke me up.
"Sasha"
Today, too, the unlucky face that appeared in my dream without fail!
Rather than yawn, Logia started by grinding her teeth.
Ugh. Ugh.
That bitch who brought shame on herself.
I still can't forget it.
The dojo breaking started with great interest, holding the Meister's weapon.
She too could not escape the threat of ranking battles.
'Isn't it too much for magic to come out three times at once?'
I was helpless.
Shasha's magic is all about attack and defense, with weapons attached.
It deals with both offensive and defensive magic.
Before becoming a wizard, he was a dog hunter.
'Whew, you're in 65th place now?'
I was unlucky from the start.
Don't be so arrogant and proud that you've pulled up the 100th place, who were at the bottom, to the top.
Are you good at business? I admit it.
But magic is beneath me.
And then they call people to come and go.
'If I hadn't responded to the emergency call and just held onto the community, that weapon would have been min e! Ugh!'
It was never going to happen, but Logia needed to rationalize.
The recent downward trend in the stock price of Red Tower.
His own downfall, etc.
There is a desperate need to point out the cause and have someone to vent their anger on.
There's Pinroy Shasha hanging there.
'I have no choice but to grow the business that will allow me to survive.'
In this way, capital is raised and trading conditions are created.
Based on this, you can secure trading items that will make the Meister drool.
'This is the only way to take down that bitch Shasha.'
Logia, who had gotten out of bed, rang the call bell.
Her house is reminiscent of a mansion.
There are dozens of dedicated butlers and maids.
As soon as I called, they knocked on the door.
"Did you call, my lord?"
"Please prepare the clothes I will wear today and a briefing."
The ruffian-like appearance we had seen just now was nowhere to be found.
Logia acts as if she is wearing a mask of a cautious lady.
This was her decorated appearance that was shown to the outside.
Only a few people know her true identity.
Sasha was one of them.
That makes me even angrier and more scared.
I'm afraid I'll reveal myself to the world.
Because those in power tend to use all sorts of tricks when they reign.
'I have to get past Shasha somehow. Only then can I take my secret to the grave.'
We need to shut that bitch's mouth tightly using the logic of power.
After taking a bath, Sasha changed into the clothes she had neatly placed in her room.
"Lady Logia. I will guide you."
As we leave the room, the butler takes the lead.
The place we arrived was a conference room.
I eat breakfast here every morning and hear about the Red Tower situation that has been going on throughout the day.
"The biggest story that happened yesterday was something that happened in Korea."
"If it's Korea, then it's where the Meister is. Please tell me. I'm looking forward to it."
"Yes. The purifier emitter we supplied did something unprecedented."
"Didn't you say that Master-nim enchanted it and donated it to a higher-level hospital in Korea free of charge?"
It was a matter I was very familiar with.
A new incurable disease, Gate disease.
The only thing that could slow down the progression of her illness was her magic tower's self-made purifying emitter.
'I invited hunters with relic crafting skills to create this and studied for several years.'
Incurable diseases are a good business idea.
Because even if you make an item that extends life, they will keep giving you money.
The number of people suffering from illness is increasing and there is no cure.
The only device that alleviates the pain is the purifying emitter.
It was one of the filial piety items of the Red Tower.
'That's what the Meister said. I wonder how he managed to increase the output without any risk.'
They have secretly stolen one and are currently conducting research on it.
The cause is a permanent enchantment.
It was impossible to imitate it or apply it to a magic circle.
So I gave up.
"I guess that cured the incurable disease?"
"Yes, Lord Tower. Our Tower's stock price is skyrocketing due to the Meister effect."
"What did you say?"
The stock market must have fluctuated while I was sleeping.
I checked quickly and it was a hit.
A bright smile appeared on Logia's face.
"This isn't a dream, is it?"
"Congratulations, Lord Top. The Tower has seized a new opportunity."
It's called the Meister effect.
A newly coined word. Anything that has anything to do with the items he created.
Any listed company that has even the slightest connection to him will see its stock price soar.
The red magic tower was finally hung there.
And that too, very firmly.
"If this trend continues, it will be possible to hit the upper limit twice in a row without any problems."
The corporate value is rising vertically.
When you lie down and blow your nose, a gold nugget rolls in on you?
'Is this the end of my incurable disease? It was a good source of income. But still, it's not so bad.'
The world will pay attention to Korea.
It's probably already happening, but it's only going to get more heated.
The nouveau riche and citizens alike will flock to treat their incurable diseases.
A new world has opened up that will eliminate your pain and your family's pain.
And such inquiries will not cease even at the Red Tower.
"There will be a shortage of consultation bots related to the purification emitter. Please increase the number of servers as quickly as possible and ensure a reliable response. Please help us match patients as much as possible with the emitters enchanted in Korea. Even if it means forcing them."
"Yes, I will do that."
The equipment may be owned by the hospital, but there are plenty of ways to interfere.
They might approach you under the pretext of checking equipment or replacing parts.
It's a chance to sweep up money with a tractor, not a rake.
You can't miss it.
'This is a chance to get over the White Tower. I must seize it.'
Logia crossed her legs in joy.
She said with a faint smile.
"I will also take this opportunity to actively work to continue the relationship between Matap and Meister."
"If it comes true, the Red Tower will truly become the best tower in the world."
"Haha, I guess I'll have to work hard to make my dreams come true. And what's the bad news?"
Your exclusive butler, Alain Dero.
He usually has a habit of sharing good news first.
Of course, bad news comes last.
Logia cleared her throat as she nodded.
"Ahem. Here's news of another incurable disease."
Is this the worst kind of bad news?
An unprepared patient is like an uninvited guest.
Logia's eyebrows tilted down.
"Where did it first appear?"
"It is a sacred country."
"Sacred Kingdom?"
The smallest country in the world.
This is a place that inherited the will of the destroyed Vatican.
The current pope who rules there is that guy.
"Broyan, the saint of the Holy Council."
20th place out of 100 lectures.
This time too.
Gate disease too. A new incurable disease too.
They all came from that bastard's country.
If the first time is luck, the second time is chance.
Are you waiting for this to become the third inevitable?
'That can't be.'
Knowing your disease can extend your lifespan.
It can also erase the unpleasant smell that lingers under the nose.
Logia's eyes became sharp.
"Send an investigation team to the Red Tower. It seems necessary to secretly investigate the Holy National Assembly."
"Yes, my lord. I will do it immediately."
I feel like I've been going back and forth between hot and cold water since morning.
I feel uneasy, but I have to do what I have to do.
'Hello, Master, sir...
Logia began to write a message as politely and femininely as possible.
***
-- --
My enchantment skill.
What is that third ability?
It was the number one real-time search term that has been filling my head recently.
'Skills grow as my actions accumulate.'
That's the basic mechanics of the skill.
A rule that applies to all hunters.
'But I did something ridiculous like skipping the third ability.'
Even the fourth ability, Purification Imprint, worked normally.
If it weren't for that, the Korean peninsula would already be covered in magic.
That is, the conclusion reached is one.
'I have already reached the condition where I can open the fourth ability on my own.'
However, the reason it could not be opened is because the relevant ability was not used.
If you just know that, it will open in an instant.
'There is only one answer.'
As always, it's the body over the head.
When did I ever use my brain to develop this skill?
'The only thing you can trust is my delicate hands.'
If you make anything, there will be something you get from it.
So, in order to grow, you need to do enchantments outside the box.
'Bracelet of Guardianship. Let's experiment with this.'
This requires some preparation.
That's the way to go.
I gathered my lips at the White Horse No. 1, which had just finished parking in a T-shape.
"Whew. Even automatic parking is sexy."
Advances in magic and technology have created this.
I got out of the car comfortably and looked around.
"It's been a long time since I've been here."
The place we arrived at was Jeong Ji-su's blacksmith shop.
I opened the community as a habit to let her know of my arrival.
'Ah, now I'm the agent Kim Seo-jin.'
I almost contacted Master Kim Jinseo.
So as I was about to close it, a message caught my eye.
'Loggia of the Red Tower.'
100-strong who lost the priority purchase right for weapons with Shasha.
Why did someone who was eliminated and kept quiet send it?
I checked the message.
-Hello, Master. It is an honor to send you this message. I recently heard some good news, so I am taking the time to contact you.
...(syncopation)...
If you have time, I would really appreciate it if we could talk and get some advice on future purifier emitters.
We wish you continued success and hope that you will continue to achieve brilliant results in the future.
Oh my, it's long.
Was he always this talkative?
I just skipped it in the middle.
'Hey, summarize my head in three lines.'
My head is spinning.
He spit out a sentence compressed into three lines.
Nice to meet you.
The purifying emitter you enchanted was awesome, huh?
Sounds like it could be worth it, but would you like to have a closer conversation about mass production?
'No call.'
What kind of wealth and honor can I enjoy?
I absolutely hate annoying things.
Even making money is now at an overflowing level.
'My safety and stat enhancement are not enough, so what's the point of discussing business?'
I closed the community and sent a text.
-I've arrived.
After sending it, I stood in front of the blacksmith shop for a while.
Clank. The door opened and Jung Ji-soo came out.
Short black hair and distinct facial features.
Even skin that is clear and blemish-free.
Huh? You're not wearing anything on your face?
"Hey, it's awkward to look at it like this.
He twists his body, perhaps feeling burdened by my gaze.
This is Jung Ji-hyun mode.
Her true form.
Is it because I'm not wearing the tiger mask that gives me courage?
She even reveals her bare face, so there's no need for a shy girl.
"The assistance is still the same...?"
She points to my face.
Here I am, wearing a mask and sunglasses.
I wrote it just in case.
You have to take it off when you go in.
"Because I am the Master's agent. It is right to keep even the smallest bits of information outside."
"then...."
"Shall we go in?"
I pushed her gently and went into the blacksmith shop with her.
Jeong Ji-su is flustered.
My stats are more than enough to withstand it, but I'm being compliant.
'I guess you were secretly curious about what my face looked like.'
The blacksmith entered with a smirk.
I was also feeling frustrated inside. Now that I have built a solid foundation of trust with her.
I can finally take it off.
"Phew. I feel like I can live now."
"wow."
It's a still life that I'm impressed by.
What's on my face?
I swept it but nothing came out.
what?
"He looks ordinary."
"If you do that in front of the person involved, they will be hurt."
I've never heard anyone say I'm ugly.
The face my parents left me.
What a relief.
"Is he the representative of the benefactor who was coming today?"
It's the low-mid range sound I heard then.
When I turn my head, I see a large man.
Wait, don't those facial features look familiar?
"Mr. Jeong Dong-sik?"
"Do you know me?"
"Because I saw you lying in the hospital bed with Jisoo."
How did this happen?
Is it true that when you get better, you gain weight?
Back then, the bones were touching.
"Hahaha! You managed to recognize me. I thought you wouldn't recognize me, so that's surprising. You look like you're curious about how you recovered so quickly."
"Yes, honestly, I am curious."
"Thanks to the skill. The vitality of the field. My vitality grows and shrinks in conjunction with the field work."
Does this mean that if you work as a blacksmith, you will recover quickly?
If you work with a strong body, you can create good weapons.
'Is it good?'
It's an enviable ability.
This one is fixed at 1 and is struggling with lack of stamina.
"The origin of the luxury weapons I've made so far came from that body."
"I heard from my daughter. Meister. He reigns supreme among the production hunters. So, what did you think of my wooden sword?"
The wooden sword used by Shin Joo-hee. This is what I felt when I first touched it.
"They said it was beautiful. It was a faithful and excellent weapon that did not forget the essence of a weapon."
"Haha! That's great praise. I heard you came here this time because you had a favor to ask. What do you want?"
"This is it."
It would be good to finish this quickly.
Boom! The subspace opened and the ore was released.
"This is 5kg of Atantium Ore. Do you know how to handle it?"
"Well, it's a tricky one. It has a high melting point, and if it's too high, the ore's properties will change to something completely unusable. It's a tricky one."
"If it was too much to ask, you can do it slowly once you regain your senses."
"How could it be impossible?"
Jeong Dong-sik, smiling brightly, lifted the tongs.
"I'll make you an ingot right now. Sit over there with your daughter and wait."
"Dad. This assistant here is a really great assistant. He became my hands and feet even though he didn't have any blacksmith skills."
"Oh, really?"
Nice index.
I was thinking of stepping forward to help, but instead I ended up providing support fire on my own.
I looked at him with a different look in my eyes and pounded my chest.
"I have learned a lot from looking over the Master's shoulder. Since you are very perceptive, please leave it to me."
"Good! Then please."
A true craftsman who inherited his skills from his daughter appears.
His movements. His breathing. His refining process.
I won't miss a single one.
And then verify it.
Does learning other people's production skills also help you grow your insight?
[Adept at observing others' production skills.]
[New production skill. Insight is stimulated even more!]
It happens. Insight grows!
Even though it is not an existing production skill, a greater growth correction has been added.
and.

An additional quest has been created that will help me grow further.
