Chapter 36 (1/2)
“Oh, I forgot to introduce myself My name is Batu, a hunter from Poharan City, a two days journey from Count Essen's Estate We arrived here yesterday with the intention of hunting Alpins and Algons I've attended this hunt for nearly 20 years This year's event is especially big Probably worth trying If you have anything you need or so starts in five days, so you'll need htly and pointed to his group's wares
Biyeon looked around Most of the other sellers and buyers carried their conversation in this manner It seemed that people went fros they hunted or to purchase ite of Alpins and Algons see than lions in terer, so their presence created a constant level of fear and danger for the residents Furtherroups of three or four, so they'd be a terrifying existence for anyone living in this area
Since the season just entered Spring, there was probably a lack of food forthee to places where people lived
Therefore, cities and castles adjacent to thehunters fro festivals
In this way, once a year, the beast population was reduced This reduction of beasts no longer caused a shortage of food for the surviving beasts living in thethe chance of an attack on human settlements
With the information they overheard, San and Biyeon understood that it was difficult to catch Algons and Alpins for these people Due to the dangers involved, the leather and ht and sold at a very expensive price
In particular, the Alpin's blood and poison were said to be very popular with nobles as a kind of aphrodisiac andwe have hile to sell?” San asked Biyeon
“I do not know All of our iteoing to live in a hus we don't need We do needuy He had his brown hair tied back and a bow behind his back His large ax was resting against a nearby stall wall
“It is a sword… but it's made out of animal bones,” San simply answered The rifle wrapped in leather and the hilt of a white sword protruded from San's back
“Animal bones? Swords made from bones aren't common… No way, is it Alchin's bones?”
Batu asked with a slightly surprised face
Alchin's bones were expensive materials mainly used by people ere at least a special warrior or higher It was very difficult to process but was very popular because of its lightness, strength, and elasticity
The Alchin was a beast with an average height of 4 th of about 8 meters It was known as a fast, fierce, and clever beast The Alchin was not hunted by individual hunters It usually took a teale Alchin
“It isn't Alchin It wasthe shi+n bones of another beast In terth, it has better properties than Alchin's I believe it's called an Archon…”
Suddenly, San and Biyeon turned their eyes towards each other Then, they slowly turned their heads around carefully Their surroundings had suddenly beco around Batu's stall were staring at the expression of embarrassment passed by her face
“Can you show me that sword?” With a hardened face, Batu asked San Curiosity and distrust were simultaneously expressed in his expression
The Archon was at the top of the food chain of warm-blooded reptile beasts In terms of the beasts on Earth, it was the Tyrannosaurus of this world
The average 15on and Alchin In order to catch an Archon, at least 10 people in the Master Warrior level (1st Stage Acceleration) and at least one Awakener (3rd stage acceleration) were needed
The Archon's leather and bones were so tough and strong that they'd have to fight for e of tarriors would die Due to this, the price of an Archon was beyond iination
In fact, one could call virtually any price It orth it because the skin and bones were superior to any known material, and the blood, tendons, and meat were also considered the best
It was such a rare beast that people hadn't heard any rumors about its existence in the past 20 years
“Sure”
San felt that he had possibly gone too far, but he licked his lips and handed the sword over
“Hmm-”
Batu unwrapped the leather around the sword and carefully lifted the white bone with both hands, looking carefully at theman next to Batu looked at the sword and then at San with suspicious eyes Others were also looking at Batu's actions, nervously and anxiously awaiting his assessht, scratched the handle, smelled it, and looked carefully at the surface
“Can I try swinging it?” he carefully asked with a slightly shaking voice
“Wait… does thathunter nearby
“Shush-”
Batu's piercing gaze seepeople started shushi+ng each other to listen in on the conversation Batu was asking for San's answer
“Sure”
San smiled He knew best about the sword's qualities He still recalled how hard it wasit out of the Archon's body, he had to burn, grind, and polish it for a long tier and lifted it up Without hesitation, he struck the dagger against the white blade
Kkang-
The surrounding people's eyes widened again The situation was clear The dagger bounced off the sword as if it hit a spring, and the dagger's blade was chipped and broken beyond repair
On the other hand, the bone sword vibrated slightly like an elastic stick with no physical change
Shortly afterward, groan-like words flowed out of Batu'sof selling it here?”
As a crowd of people gathered,at the two They were all looking at a luxury product that they would probably see only once in their lifetime
A sword that would never break In addition, if the weight of a one-handed sword can simultaneously achieve the destructive power and speed of a two-handed sword, it was like having an additional life as a warrior
