Chapter 28 Consume (3) (2/2)

“And about the ownership of the lair and the Blue Scale Scimitar, they’re all yours, Cain.”

That was the deal they had made.

After a nod, Yeon-woo examined the scimitar they had taken from Hargan’s carcass.

[Blue Scale Scimitar]

Classification: Two-handed Weapon

Rating: D+

Description: Hargan’s (Lizardman King) favorite weapon. The weapon is imbued with the fire element. It boasts strong durability, destroying everything that comes into contact with. However, due to its heavy weight, the sword will not budge without extreme muscle strength.

By the mere possession of the weapon, the user emits an imperious aura. Has a certain chance of inflicting ‘panic’ on the target. Targets under the effect of panic will receive damage in direct proportion to the duration of the effect.

Maybe because it was used by a big monster like Hargan, the scimitar was almost as big as Yeon-woo. Yeon-woo found even just carrying it around quite cumbersome.

If he only looked at its options, the scimitar seemed to be as good as Hargan’s Crown. It was one of the best artifacts one could get in the tutorial. But Yeon-woo usually used a short dagger as his main weapon. This type of sword did not fit Yeon-woo’s style. In addition, the ownership of the lair was also useless for Yeon-woo.

[Ownership of Hargan’s Lair]

Obtain rights to all objects and resources that exist within the lair.

* List of items in the lair

1. Red Orc’s Helmet

2. Axe of Battlecry

3. Hard Crystal x31

Yeon-woo scrutinized the listed items.

Although most of the items had been damaged by Hargan’s Heat Wave, there was still a considerable number of items left in the storage room. Among them, there were quite a few good items, but Khan and Doyle had no qualms about handing them over to Yeon-woo.

Of course, the list also included items used by those who had been captured in the human farm. From a moral standpoint, the correct thing to do would be to give the items back to the original owners. However, the three of them didn’t think of giving them back.

There was an unspoken rule in The Tower and the tutorial. No matter who the original owner of the item might have been, the items belong to the ones who found them.

But Yeon-woo didn’t need these items either.

‘Some of these artifacts might come in handy for now, still, there are plenty of them inside The Tower.’

But at least he found one thing worth taking.

[Carshina’s Dagger]

Classification: One-handed Weapon

Rating: D-

Description: A dagger that had been used by a nameless trainee throughout his life. Made with common materials, but the blade hardened as it retains the passion of the trainee.

* Will of Trainee

Weapon damage will increase along with the user’s weapon proficiency.

Yeon-woo touched ‘Carshina’s Dagger’ and held it in his hand.

The weight and size of the dagger were similar to those he had been wielding so far, so it was quite easy to get used to it.

If there was anything that was missing,

‘The blade is slightly bent.’

But it was all right.

‘The daggers I had were getting really damaged, they are barely usable by now. This will suffice for the remaining of the tutorial.’

He was also fond of the extra option it had.

Yeon-woo put Carshina’s Dagger next to his waist and examined the rest of the list. However, there was nothing useful for Yeon-woo. Even the resources in the lair didn’t have much use.

‘I do need plenty of minerals to make artifacts, but if I can’t store them somewhere else, they will only make my backpack heavier. The materials gathered from monsters are also more expensive.’

Yeon-woo had taken the Tokens that Hargan had collected in advance. Thanks to that, he had now over 200 Tokens in total.

In the end, Yeon-woo had to close the message without much gain.

‘Well, I wasn’t expecting anyway.’

But Yeon-woo wasn’t particularly disappointed. Disappointment only comes after expectation. In fact, Yeon-woo didn’t expect much from the start. His brother mentioned it in his diary after all, that the rewards were quite small compared to the risk and difficulty. The sole reason as for why Yeon-woo had accepted this quest was to collect the Karma and Tokens he lacked.

And then,

‘Even if they are scrap items, with this much quantity, I can still sell them at a high price.’

Doyle then carefully asked Yeon-woo.

“Is there anything wrong, Cain? There wasn’t anything you needed?”

He seemed worried that Yeon-woo might have to leave without making much profit.

Yeon-woo thought that Doyle needed to grow a thicker skin for times like this. Doyle was too soft-hearted. Yeon-woo wondered how did he think he could climb The Tower full of monsters with such a heart. But at the same time, he knew that this was Doyle’s charm.

Yeon-woo smiled and shook his head.

“They are mostly useless. But don’t worry, it won’t be a total loss.”

As Doyle looked at Yeon-woo with a puzzled look, Yeon-woo fixed his eyes onto an empty space and spoke.

“You’ll hurt your neck if you keep watching us like that.”

Doyle turned to the direction Yeon-woo was talking to.

Kahn also looked to the side with a bit of a serious face.

At that moment.

“Well, well, did I get caught already? I wanted to surprise you.”

A portal opened in midair and a figure dropped down.

A man with his hood drawn over his face was giving him a big smirk.

It was the mysterious merchant.
