Chapter 45

The reason why a weapon was iht wasn’t solely because it was directly linked to his or her survival

It was, in a way, an "expression" of a certain gap within the same Tiers

When the abilities were similar - no, when the abilities were just about the sath of the weapon would separate the two, and the ranks would be divided

And such a division would deterht affected by it - the annual salary, the fa in the air

A heavy sword left behind a clear afterie in the air as it descended

The aim of this terrible strike was a type of turtle

However, it was not an ordinary turtle at all No, it was the Big-Giant-Turtle It was a big and rare Monster that had to have tords stuck to its nae its size was (TL: yes, that’s the Monster’s name in the raw Hell, the author even wrote that in Korean version of the English words)

This creature came about when a turtle couldn’t absorb Mana properly and ends up , but the strength and the hardness of its shell was not so even possessed a sort of iate a certain portion of every attack containing Mana

So, although the payoff was quite good for its shell which could be hts who relied on Mana rather than physical strength could only give up on hunting this Monster

"…Ohhh"

This time, however, was different The Zweihänder, made out of black steel and currently wielded by Joo Ji-Hyuk, easily sliced apart the tough shell of this turtle This was the resulting synergistic effect of the weapon’s attribute, ‘Material Destruction’ and Joo Ji-Hyuk’s skills with the heavy sword

"Now that’s so else I honestly believed that when your Trait of Heavy Sword Master became known, you’d be stuck in the Mid Tier for the rest of your life… You sure did get a great weapon, huh"

Ji-Hyuk’s fellow Knight who bore witness to this event sent out a glare and soht jealousy

But Joo Ji-Hyuk didn’t mind that and si up the pieces of the turtle’s shell

Joo Ji-Hyuk’s Trait, ‘Heavy Swords Mastery’

When he wielded a heavy sword that required the usage of both hands, he could demonstrate thewhatsoever - a co up That’s why Joo Ji-Hyuk could becoht only a week after his Trait awakened

However, it onderful only at the beginning - since his Trait was heavily affected by the weapons he wielded, it soon beca stuck in the Mid Tier for the last five years or so

But that was until he got his hands on the Orc’s Zweihänder

"Haha… well, I guess so"

"Hey, by the way, you’re going to sell that to the guys we proht? Should I call theht pulling out the phone

"There is soht? If it’s like that, well… but who are you going to sell it to?"

At the Knight’s question, Joo Ji-Hyuk grinned widely

"No, it’s not selling, but paying back the favour"

"…What? You’re going to give that to the Orc Blacks it precisely because it’s expensive"

As the Big-Giant-Turtle was such a rare Monster, the pricing of its shell per graold It was the type of item that would easily fetch hundreds of thousands of dollars in the ht away

"You serious??"

The fellow Knight’s face beca that, how can a guy with a poor household even drea so valuable…

"Yeah"

However, Joo Ji-Hyuk simply nodded his head with a smile on his face

The requests for interviews came in droves Kim Sae-Jin finally realised that there were so many media outlets in South Korea for the first time in his life when over 50 of the to refuse them all at first, but then reot disparaged by the o ahead only to four of the most reputable, well known e Of course he understood where they were co from, but well, just why did they have so many questions? Each of the intervieasted a h it probably was nothing ossip-style throay question, one of the reporters even asked hi the Society The word Lycan was derived froh that creature was seen as another species of human, it still had soh of the connections for this guy

"Ah, well then, this is the final, final, final question Are you planning to admit new members to the hottest Society in town, The Monster? Whether it’s a public, open recruitment, or as a special case I hts are eyeballing Mister Sae-Jin’s Society as their potential target for signing up?"

This was already the fourth ‘final’ question It es or not to go through, but Sae-Jin still smiled resolutely and soldiered on

"Well, There is no plan at thehis face around too much…"

"Aha So, in order to join the Society, firstly a person should become more friendly with you, is that it?"

"Eh? Ah… well, yes It’s so like that"

Fortunately, that really was the last question The reporter thanked hiether

Thanks to that, the ti perilously close As he was hurriedly getting ready to go home, someone knocked on the door to his office

"Who is it?"

"It’s Euphras" (TL: 유프라스)

Euphras was one of the employees for the arer of the employees As her Western name implied, her race was an Elf, and as a result, her pride was quite high

"Was there soht naht the gift box and placed it on top of the er’s desk in a display of ut her back to him, carefully exited the office Apparently, that was the Elf’s way of showing respect to a superior or some such

"…A present?"

Sae-Jin looked at that black box for a bit, before lifting open the lid without thinking too , to say the least Why would he send a present of these things… But before he could finish that line of thought, the rising infornorance of Sae-Jin rather nicely
