Chapter 268 Abraxas

His conversation with Byeok gave Chi-Woo a lot to think about, especially what he was going to do froth He also needed to consider others besides hi for the saoal and purpose as hi independently was good, he needed to find companions and build connections before it was too late And to do this, Chi-Woo needed to raise his tier first

Chi-Woo already threay his plan to save up histhat his physical ranks didn’t go up even after training so hard, Chi-Woo realized how inefficient and wasteful he had been with his ti abilities in his user infor an ability or person was, but they were also equated to influence in the hero world

Besides Ru Aroup He would probably have a hard ti the lowest tier of Iron IV Byeok agreed and said that he should reach at least gold tier to increase his influence Chi-Woo was confident in ter his tier since the number of merits he’d collected so far was enormous, and he had several exeo to La Bella to raise his tier right away, but Byeok stopped hi and proceeded to say that while she acknowledged his exemptions for promotion tests, he shouldn’t touch his merits yet, and should instead try to amass new ones

“Didn’t I tell you before? Your training isn’t over yet”

Chi-Woo was a bit taken aback to hear this It wasn’t easy to increase a tier Though he earned a great number of old tier was still very s it would take hi forward, but Byeok simply responded with a carefree smile

“Try it first and coot a request for him to fulfill No, anyone would be hard-pressed to call it a request since it wasn’t a personal one, nor one officially advertised by the guild association, but an inquiry for help for the natives Instead of an official request, it was basically just an extra workload

Nevertheless, the request was as followed: like how heroes had to make monthly payments, natives also had work quotas to meet every month For exa harvest time And recently, a neork opportunity came up for the natives: it was to cultivate the land outside the city Since Shalyh was densely populated, residents were turning to lands outside the city This became possible since they were able to ensure ue asked the humans to turn the areas in the city’s vicinity into usable lands

The natives understood that it was difficult to get more help in the city, and that they needed to do the work on their own However, the as tough and difficult They had quotas to meet and a considerable size of land to cultivate, which s

“Go and help them to the best of your abilities,” Byeok told him

Chi-Woo didn’t knohy Byeok would hand him a task like this, but he followed the order since it caered to the area and picked up a shovel And while he did this, many people stared and whispered around him Chi-Woo felt a bit embarrassed, but he didn’t concern himself with their attention After the ti what she told him to do hat allowed his; Chi-Woo supposed that Byeokhiround He felt the rough and heavy soil through his shovel, but it wasn’t hard to dig through it

But then Chi-Woo wondered, ‘What is the best way to dig this soil…?’ And he looked intently at his shovel

First of all, he shouldn’t use his exorcism mana and only his physical abilities Furtherure outain with the new skills he learned; then the ground began to break apart like soft soil He didn’t even need to exert s, it was best to think simply Chi-Woo smiled and lost himself in his work

Some time afterward

“Huh, what?”

“What is it?”

The natives who had been glancing at Chi-Woo furtivelyto bulldoze through the field in a straight line while digging through the ground There was no pause in his movements, and he moved like fish in water All the natives stopped to stare at Chi-Woo

“Ha!” It was then an old man exclaimed The other natives bowed and backed ahen they saw the oldthe land cultivation and was acknowledged by the natives and even the Cassiubia League as a legendary farmer But even such aChi-Woo’s work The ditches were just the right width and depth, and as if they were copied and pasted from each other, they were all identical to one another

“Ha…how could he move like that…?”

Chi-Woo looked as if he was one with the soil Seeing that, a feeling that the old ain The oldthe soil Thus, he was round than anyone else He was the expert a the experts who had lived as part of the earth all his life Thus, unable to tareat vigor

“Bring me my shovel this instant!”

“B-But sir?”

“Quit fussing! How can I stay put when seeing round next to Chi-Woo Though the old ht up to Chi-Woo, he couldn’t hide his shock He had honed his skills and techniques through many decades, yet Chi-Woo didn’t fall behind in any aspect coh Chi-Woo had his abilities, the oldskills, refined over the years, were also formidable

The probleh pure grit and passion in the first three days, but after four days, he started to feel the lith The winner was decided on the fifth day, and the old man cruht, sir!?”

“Kuhhhh! If only I were 10 years younger… Time is so cruel…!”

As the natives carried him away, the old man lamented why the heavens had birthed him in the first place and created athe soil There was a small commotion, but Chi-Woo was already far fro h he was repeating sily hard to carry out First of all, e a that for several days was even more of a strain Chi-Woo wiped the sweat froain

‘More…!’

‘A bit ress usually came unexpectedly

[User Choi Chi-Woo’s durability increases fro He stared at thein the air He had felt that he was at the edge of rank C for his physical ability, but since it didn’t increase in rank no ht it wasn’t an easy task to surpass human limits Nevertheless, it turned out none of his efforts was a waste of ti he had done, he finally succeeded in surpassing the critical point, rank C All his hard as finally colad that he trained without e to suddenly come like this

‘Wow…’ Chi-Woo felt astonished He had surpassed rank C, which was one that ordinary hu all their lives It seemed he’d accomplished what should’ve taken him decades Furthermore, Chi-Woo was especially happy that he was able to save extra merits that he would’ve needed to raise his physical abilities

‘But it’s not over yet!’ Only his durability had gone up to rank B He couldn’t be satisfied with that With that thought, Chi-Woo raised his arm as he clutched the shovel
