Return To Level Up

Hajin Kang made his people tired.

Once I woke up that night

We entered the museum after lunch and some time had passed.

However, it was not enough to invest all afternoon and evening in the museum, so everyone must have been tired of staying up all night.

It wasn't just that he stayed up all night.

It wasn't enough to stay up all night, so the next morning and afternoon were all invested in the museum.

So no matter how strong I liked Ha-jin, I couldn't help but get bored.

But Kang Ha-jin did not want to miss this opportunity.

It seemed almost impossible for him to come to this museum again next time.

So before that, I had to check everything I could and get everything I could get.

A total of 87 artifacts are currently being eroded in the museum.

And among them, there were a total of three relics nearing completion. Of course, it was the number excluding the pancreatic spear.

All three artifacts were also intercepted in the middle to steal stats, skills, and titles.

Two were really insignificant items, but the other one was quite usable.

I did this and that from the slate, where even the letters could not be recognized, and I pulled out a stat of 12, and I got a skill called ‘stability’.

[Stable (P)]

[When you sleep, your mind and body become calm and your recovery is slightly increased. Slightly reduces the chance of insomnia.]

And I got 3 strength and 3 stamina each from the very large body armor, and I got a skill called 'Drying'.

[Dry (P)]

[I don't sweat even with full body armor. A wet body dries slightly faster than usual.]

I have acquired two skills that are good to have, but not enough to have.

The last artifact was a book.

It was a book made by weaving parchment paper, and it seemed to have a wonderful history in it even at a glance.

Unlike the above two relics, this book was given a name like the Blood Spear.

[Book of the Sage]

[A book created through the hands of 100 wise men. Each sage's mind and knowledge reside. Mental Strength +100, Magical Power +100, and the skill ‘Skill Enhancement’ can be used. Grants the title ‘The One Who Reads the Books of the Five Carts’]

It was such a wonderful item that my heart was pounding. And intercepted it in the middle.

[Technology enhancement (P)]

[Increases the power of all skills by 10%.]

As a strong Ha-jin with many skills, this kind of passive skill was always welcome.

It will probably be a very useful skill.

[The one who read the book of five carts]

[Those who own the Book of the Wise have left many books, without exception. He collected all the books he had left behind and filled the five carts. Each book is a special book, and it is a title given to those who have read them all. Or a title given to those who possess a book recognized by all the wise men. Fast reading, high-speed chanting, Myunggyeong Jisoo]

It was a title with three skills attached.

[Speed ​​Reading (A)]

[I can read the book quickly. Depending on the skill level, it will be at least 2 to 10 times faster. It helps with the skill ‘extortion’.]

[High-speed chanting (P)]

[Increases skill expression speed by 10%.]

[Myeonggyeong Index (P)]

[Helps to keep a calm mind at all times. Lowers the chance of skill failure. Slightly increases the performance of all passive skills.]

It felt like a comprehensive gift set with only amazing skills.

Moreover, unlike the first extortion target, when he hijacked his power from the Blood Spear, there was no pain after that.

It seemed like it happened as he took his place as a skill.

After all, can you easily leave the museum now that you have received those things?

It was around 2 am on the first day that the wise men extorted their power from each other, and after that, it was just a repetition of looking at the artifacts and feeling sorry for the low progress.

Among them, the progress was quite high, and there were a few that were really short-lived.

It was about 95%, but considering that you have to wait for several hours for 99%, you may have to wait a few days or weeks, considering that you can't tell how long it's been 99%.

I couldn't stay here all that time, so I had no choice but to leave with tears in my eyes.

“I didn’t know you were so interested in art or artifacts.”

Like Hwang Soo-young and Jung A-yeon, the view of Kang Ha-jin changed a lot.

She could not have imagined that Ha-jin Kang had such a side.

To them, Hajin is strong because she seemed like a person who concentrated all of her life on only leveling up and closing dungeons.

She felt a strange charm to think that such a person had such a noble hobby.

And it was the same with Kyungmin Yoon.

“I think I have had a huge misunderstanding about the Master. We will try to stock some art pieces at the guild headquarters soon.”

Ha-jin Kang tried to say that she didn't need it, but when she saw Kyung-min Yoon's expression and eyes, she just bit her mouth.

The anticipation of starting a new job was evident in her eyes.

'I don't know if that's why they're trying to build a museum or an art gallery.'

She thought that she wouldn't be as bad as she was again.

Ha-jin Kang turned her head to look at the distant museum for a moment.

She honestly didn't care about her before she returned. She said that the artifacts changed and the crafted items deteriorated.

But as far as I've seen this time, that's not always the case.

Items such as the Blood Spear and the Book of the Sage were not at a level that even the greatest person could easily obtain.

Even if a craftsman with excellent production or grant skills put great effort into making a life work, it was almost impossible to produce such an item.

‘Is it like that before the return?’

But, if they hid and disturbed the information, that would have been great.

‘I want to know more.’

It was regrettable that Ha-jin Kang could not find out why the artifacts were turned into items in that museum for some reason.

‘If I have a little more time, I think I will be able to catch up somehow...’

I was staring at the museum with that thought in mind, and Hwang Soo-young saw it and said:

“Are you so sorry? When I return to Korea, I will have to tour the museum first. I don't really have time, but I'll go with you. It’s not fun to go there alone.”

“Wouldn't it be better to let them enjoy themselves quietly? It seems like you are looking at each piece of work very carefully. It is not easy for ordinary people to wait for it. How much less…….”

Jeong Ah-yeon could not finish her words, and she looked at Hwang Soo-young.

Wasn't it Hwang Soo-young, who was the most urgent among them, and who urged me to move on to the next one quickly because I was bored even after a few seconds of watching one work?

“You can do it all. It's because I purposely gathered energy here to use it later, right?"

The party shook their heads at Hwang Soo-young's nonsensical sophistry.

“I want to check the French side as well.”

At Ha-jin Kang's words, A-yeon Jeong's eyes brightened.

“I will try to contact you. To be honest, it seems like it could be possible just by looking at it.”

In this case, the network and power of A-Market become useful. And Jeong A-yeon was the person who could use it more effectively than anyone else.

Ha-jin Kang looked at A-yeon Jeong with eyes full of anticipation.

As she looked into her eyes, Jeong-in looked into her eyes and she reaffirmed her promise that she would somehow succeed in it.

The car carrying the group drove fast. We had so much time in the museum that we ran out of time.

* * *

The party was held in a huge hall in the basement of the hotel.

In fact, no one who has seen the hotel from the outside would have thought that such a place would exist in the basement.

Because it was a much larger place than the actual hotel area.

It was a hall deep in the basement of the hotel, and the security was very strict.

It was a place that we had to go through several stages of security system to get to, and each time we passed, Ha-jin and his party were quite surprised by the thoroughness.

“Awesome.”

That was her first word she uttered as soon as Jeong Ah-yeon entered the hall.

She also spoke of how she felt for the rest of the party. She nodded her head in sympathy with everyone.

In the hall, three or three people who arrived first gathered and chatted with glasses of champagne.

Looking at the atmosphere, it didn't seem like they were talking about anything important, but they were just greeting each other with familiar faces.

Hajin Kang and his party went inside. No one paid a single glance.

It was natural. Since they came out to the world, maybe in Korea, the awareness of Ha-jin Kang and his party was not very high.

The first person to approach Ha-jin Kang and his group was William.

“You are finally here. I was waiting. Come on, come this way. There are a lot of people I want to introduce to you.”

William naturally introduced Ha-jin Kang to various places to say hello and helped them blend into the group.

And then he put them apart one by one.

It also happened very naturally.

As we greeted and chatted for a bit, one of the parties made it a little deeper into the group, and then slipped away with the rest of the party.

As they all disappeared, only Ha-jin Kang remained with William.

“I heard you had a very meaningful time at the museum,” he said.

“Thanks to you, we had a great time. Thank you."

"haha. I'm glad you enjoyed it. I hope to have another chance next time. As you know, the works in the museum change often. Maybe next time you will see something completely new.”

Kang Ha-jin simply smiled and replied with a smile.

Actually, I want to see it in a state where nothing has changed, but I can't ask you to do it.

‘I don’t know if I’ll ever see you again.’

If you turn down William and Jason's offer, you'll probably never be able to enter the museum again.

Even sneaking in was a problem. There were numerous CCTV cameras installed inside the museum.

It seemed that the internal management was also really thorough.

‘Well, if that level of items appear consistently, anyone will be thorough.’

William asked at Ha-jin Kang's contemplative appearance.

“How did you think about my offer?”

“I am still thinking. It is not something that can be easily decided.”

“I fully understand. Apparently, there are a lot of US and British forces involved, so we have to pay attention to our surroundings.”

At William's words, Ha-jin Kang looked at him with meaningful eyes and said.

“Actually, there is no way. For example, naturalization.”

At that, William clapped his hands.

“Oh, there was a way. That's a pretty good idea. But I want you to think about it a little more deeply. This is by carefully weighing the pros and cons of the option of naturalization.”

Ha-jin Kang made a judgment based on William's reaction.

What they wanted was guardians, not strong Hajin.(Read more @ hotmtlnovel.xyz)

Of course, Kang Ha-jin's strength is also needed, but rather than that, he wants the support of the outstanding guild called the Guardians.

If Ha-jin Kang is naturalized, he may lose his guardians, so he is advising him to be careful.

‘It looks like you decided to become a supporter.’

Before the return, tightly woven supporters around Team Guardians suddenly came to mind.

In fact, it was never easy to get into that supporter position.

A supporter could be an individual, a guild, or a company.

However, it was not easy for an individual to sit there. He must have great skills and wealth.

Becoming a supporter as an individual meant that when there was a vacancy in Team Guardians, he was the first person to enter the position.

Anyway, if William and Jason had Kang Ha-jin as a supporter, there was no need to worry.

I was thinking of rejecting this.

In fact, he was a little hesitant when he first got the offer. Because he also had a chance to get into the heart of the enemy.

But if you're a supporter, it's a completely different story.

The range of information given to supporters is really narrow. Because it provides only the information you need.

In the current situation, it was a waste of time for Ha-jin Kang to go there.

It's not like other supporters go in hoping for a big profit.

“Anyway, this is for world peace, so please think about it from a grand victory level.”

“It is.”

At Ha-jin Kang's cool answer, William made a satisfied expression and left.

He wasn't strong, but he had plenty of people to say hello to.

Ha-jin Kang, who suddenly fell alone, stood in a little corner and looked around his hall.

He had far more attendees than those at the party.

He carries food, serves champagne, and even the people who help keep the party running smoothly behind the scenes.

‘The quality of the food is excellent.’

He was honestly a little surprised. It was food made based on magic.

Awakened people will be able to feel much better taste and aroma. It was also a food that the general public could enjoy at a considerable level.

‘When was magic-based food that even the general public could enjoy?’

Hajin Kang traced her memories before his return.

I guess it was because it came out too soon.

It was either that the history had changed, or that they had developed it in the first place by now and did not disclose it.

As Ha-jin Kang was savoring his dishes, someone approached him.

She turned her head to check that she was a woman she knew very well.
