Chapter 177 Shadow Dojo (2) (1/2)
Greed and Yeon-woo both moved forward at the same time.
Boom!
Swords clashed together, but the sound of metal wasn’t heard. Instead, there was an explosion.
‘As I expected. Everything’s exactly like him. I shouldn’t let my guard down.’
Yeon-woo’s eyes shined, feeling the vibration along Carshina’s dagger.
‘And his weapons look pretty nice.’
The reason why he had the nickname of Greed was from none other than his obsession with treasure.
He was evil enough to backstab his friends to get what he wanted.
Every time Greed used a weapon, magic circles came up from the ground. It was clear how much he had invested in them.

But Yeon-woo knew that his own inventory didn’t fall behind.
He was wearing a masterpiece artifact like those that high rankers would wear. The Magic Armor made Yeon-woo’s movements smooth.
The same went for Carshina’s dagger.

A lot of the new Carshina’s dagger was changed by Yeon-woo.
What he did the most to it was placing jewels on it to make it stronger.
The purer a jewel, the more it could amplify effects. Because it was a basic ingredient of alchemy, there was even a study dedicated to it as well.
Fortunately, Henova knew how to take care of the jewels. Yeon-woo focused on what Henova taught him.
During the day, he helped Henova with his work, and in the night, he received lessons from Henova.
Of course, he used Time Difference in this process. He engraved the rune letters that Victoria had taught him, and he set them with jewel powder.
The jewels that he used were the best of the best, meaning they were 90% pure. Yeon-woo had enough to bathe in it, and Henova’s connections could get him however much he needed.
Yeon-woo was able to learn how to set jewels after spending a lot of money and receiving a lot of nagging from Henova.
There were two types of rune letters on the dagger.
-Make darker the dark.

-Make hotter the hot.
It was perfectly adjusted for Yeon-woo.
When Yeon-woo was learning, he focused with the mindset of absorbing everything that Henova taught him.
He was able to observe Henova with his Draconic Eyes and Extrasensory Perception.
And so, this was the first artifact that Yeon-woo had patched up, but he was confident.
Whatever Greed had wouldn’t be as outstanding as this.
As if to reflect Yeon-woo’s thoughts, Greed was pushed far away, not being able to stand Carshina’s dagger’s power.
It was only a shadow, but Yeon-woo felt like the shadow was surprised. He hit the ground again not to lose his winning edge.
The fellow threw about 5 small knives at him, but Yeon-woo lightly whipped them aside and arrived in front of him. In the blink of an eye, two swords banged against each other multiple times
Then, the shadow’s balance wobbled, and Yeon-woo input Aura into his dagger.

Above him, Holy Fire whirled around.
The fire crackled and heated up the room. Greed, who was trapped inside, looked like he was in severe danger.

“Just why did that person enter the 5th door…..?”
The players’ greatest interest today was about Yeon-woo.
The Hoarder had started to climb the Tower again.
But unlike what everyone predicted, the door he challenged wasn’t the 1st door, but the 5th.
Everyone thought it strange.
Even though the 1st place on the hall of fame on each floor was marked as ‘Unrevealed,’ everyone knew who it was.
So they all thought he would enter the 1st door to take 1st place again, but they were shocked he headed inside the 5th door.

The same went for the Trinity members.
Yeon-woo didn’t know who they were, but he had met them throughout the different floors. Well, to be exact, they had met him.
They twiddled their thumbs inside the cave of snakes when Yeon-woo was hoarding away all the hidden pieces to hatch his egg, and they served under him as the squadron leader temporarily in Red Dragon.
They only had bad memories of him, so they didn’t want to get involved with him. But horrid fate was fate, and they saw him on the 21st floor again.
Even though it was horridly fateful for them, they were still surprised to see him enter the 5th door.
“Just what is the Hoarder thinking?”
“Did he really just twiddle his thumbs on the 20th floor like in the rumors?”
Because Yeon-woo had stopped clearing the floors for a while, there were rumors about him.
It was that he fell into a slump after being hit with a hurdle he couldn’t jump for the first time and lost all his abilities.
