Chapter 14 (1/2)
‘Wasn’t it a waste of time?’
What he didn’t understand was the time. Just flipping through the pages didn’t mean that the book was read. If you flipped through, you wouldn’t be able to receive even 1 stat experience.
You had to read meticulously. That was the only way you would be able to attain stat experience. Soo Hyuk’s wisdom was over 1300 at the moment.
No matter how easy it was to increase your stats because your level’s low, in order to reach over 1300, you would have to read a lot of books. In other words, an immense amount of time was needed.
‘Was the game boring?’
Even if his stats increased, to invest all that time solely on reading? It didn’t make any sense. By any chance, was hunting boring? Or was there a different reason?
‘Was it because 50 gold would’ve been a waste?’
There could be a sufficient amount of different reasons. It was the conditions needed to utilize the library. In order to access the library, a special condition needed to be fulfilled.
Each library’s qualifications were different. To use Oren’s library, 50 gold was needed. The problem was, the tutorial area of Oren was an area where once someone left; there was no way they could return back.
‘Okay, 50 gold went into it.’
That is, in order to utilize Oren’s library, he needed to earn 50 gold there.
‘It could be because it would be a waste.’
50 gold was not a sum of money that was easy to make. It would be different if he had become a high level, but at that level, 50 gold was a fortune.
Especially if it’s in the tutorial area of Oren, you could say it’s an even more enormous amount of money. He could be reading books because it would be a waste after he put in that large sum of money.
‘Even so, wasn’t it harder to invest in the time to carefully read?’
It was difficult to earn gold, but it was even more strenuous to read all of those books meticulously. No, it was close to nearly impossible.
No matter how much of a waste the money would’ve been, to read the books carefully? It would be different if it was the first one or two books, but over 1,000 books? Even if stats were given, for all of that time? Therefore, he thought that although a title was created, no user would acquire it.
“Wow, he’s seriously crazy.”
Jang Yool spoke with admiration.
“Since the second day, he only read books in the library? Without missing a day.”
Joo Hyuk Yang was deep in thought when he heard Jang Yool speak. He finished his thoughts and opened his mouth.
“Since the second day?”
His face was filled with dismay.
“Was he playing the game to read books?”
It was as if he started Pangaea in order to read books.
“But this user, this level, with this stats…..”
Jang Yool watched his monitor as he slurred his words.
“What about his stats?”
Joo Hyuk Yang cross-questioned him as he spoke.
“Didn’t he achieve that condition?”
“Condition?”
Joo Hyuk Yang counter-questioned once more. What does he mean by condition?
“What condition?”
Presently, with his stats, there were so many qualifications that were accomplished. He was curious as to which one Jang Yool was talking about, out of those many qualifications.
“The provisional occupation that was made in case a user who conquered Oren’s library came out.”
“…..!”
He was shocked at what Jang Yool said. And as soon as he was finished speaking, he opened his mouth widely and froze.
“Descendants of Medusa’s Shrine.”
Descendants of Medusa’s Shrine, was a first class occupation. Even amongst the first class occupations, it fought for first place. It was the best, and you could say that it was the strongest occupation.
The problem was that if you compared Descendants of Medusa’s Shrine with other first class occupations, promoting was not hard. The reason was naturally because changing occupations was difficult.
The condition to change careers was unheard of. He was certain that if this information was released to the public, complaints would come in asking why this occupation was made and if it was ornamental.
Nevertheless, the reason why this occupation was created was solely for when a user would conquer Oren’s library. It was in preparation in case, that is, not only to have conquered it but also to have effectively conquered it. You could say that it was a present given to the user for achieving a qualification that didn’t make any sense.
“………”
He thought that there would be no way the present would be given, so he had buried that side of his memory and forgotten about it. Joo Hyuk Yang did not say a word. No, it wasn’t that he didn’t say anything; he couldn’t say anything.
“His wisdom’s over 1,000 so the first condition’s been accomplished.”
His silence made Jang Yool speak. In order to change into Descendants of Medusa’s Shrine, several qualifications were needed. Within them, the first qualification was to have wisdom stats reach over 1000. Soo Hyuk had already achieved the first condition.
“No!”
He tilted his head in confusion as Jang Yool spoke and opened his mouth.
“He may decide not to become a Magician?”
The second qualification was the Magician occupation. It was only possible to change into Descendants of Medusa’s Shrine from a Magician. That is, it was possible only from a General Magician. It was impossible to change from a Special Affiliated Wizard occupation. Exclusively General Wizards could change occupations.
“Aye.”
Jang Yool spoke.
“With these stats, if he doesn’t change into a Wizard, what would he change into?”
“………”
“Anyone could see that the stats hit the jackpot to become a Magician.”
Overwhelming wisdom, you could say it was the optimum stats for a Magician. Anyone who saw would recommend changing into a Wizard with his stats.
“Buh, but! He may not go to Matab and could go somewhere else.”
The third condition was the transfer place. The area you could change into the Descendants of Medusa’s Shrine was the Magicians’ alliance of Matab.
In order to transfer into Descendants of Medusa’s Shrine, you had to go to Matab. To be exact, you had to go to a specific building in Matab.
However, to become a Wizard, you didn’t necessarily have to go to Matab to do it. It was possible to go to another country to change into a Magician.
“These days users gathered suggestions stating that it was better to raise their characters in kingdoms.”
On top of that, recently there have been a lot of users whom started as Wizards from countries aside from Matab. It was because it was far easier to promote.
“But what if he started at Matab? And what if he goes to the library?”
Though ‘what if’ was an existing law. If by any chance, he went to Matab and received the quest to change into Descendants of Medusa’s Shrine inside Matab’s library?
“It’s okay.”
Joo Hyuk Yang responded. His expression was different than before. He was calm and composed.
