Paper 116: The Wings of Felix
“Production cost… … That’s great. How did you make this?”
“I will hand over the recipe. We just need a decent revenue share. I thought it would be better for Samhyun to take charge of everything from procuring materials to mass production.”
Chief Hwang Se-hyun nodded.
He has seen great heroes and craftsmen while being next to the chairman of the Samhyeon Group. He has been looking at the alchemy market itself rather than the potion market itself, and all of the artifacts he directly inspects are of the [Treasure] level or higher.
The artisans he cares about are only S-class or higher. No matter how special and great the potential was, the person below it was in charge and he only had to report it.
But Shin Ji-hoo, an appraiser, was different.
No, now I should be called a craftsman.
‘It’s not just this elixir, it’s a skilled person who can make history-grade artifacts from healing wands.’
Very special.
And the potential is great too.
But it’s not enough to be called S-class.
That’s why I couldn’t understand why the president cared about it. Fixed the aftereffects of [Knights of Cold Cold] member’s amputation, and made a hideout inside the tower.
It’s great.
However, Hwang Se-hyun, who is said to be the real power of the Samhyeon Group, was not enough to move. How many people has he seen?
I couldn’t understand that the chairman was concerned about it himself. However, I nodded my head when I heard that Kim Mi-yeon, who was the head of the [Artisan’s Street] union, was a person she cared for and that she was the son of ‘President Shin’ who guarded this street in the past.
‘Then I could understand.’
It didn’t matter if I didn’t understand.
If the president tells you to do it, do it.
However, I came this far and received an unexpected gift.
“This is a gift.”
“hahahaha, it’s a deal. There are also conditions. I try to avoid selling at too high a price. I want many people to benefit from it. Also, it is correct to enter our streets first.”
“You don’t have to worry about that.”
Jihoo thought about what to say more.
Should we decide on the distribution of profits and the selling price?
But he spoke first.
“The sales revenue of this elixir is not important to us. We will sell it at a low price and all profits will go to the two producers.”
“… … Is it necessary to go that far?”
“sure. Profits are not important, just that Samhyeon makes and sells these elixirs has enough value.”
Jihoo couldn’t fully understand the meaning of the words. But he continued, as if he didn’t care.
“Also, I heard that a training and shooting range and an underground warehouse are needed.”
“Yes, it is.”
“I will take care of that too. You will have to pay for the construction. hahahaha.”
“Of course it is.”
“Because the head of the union told me to do the right deal. If I don’t listen, I’ll get scolded a lot. However, we will charge only the cost of materials and labor. It costs more than 15 billion won by itself, would you mind?”
Jihoo paused.
15 billion in material and labor costs alone is what a great training ground he intends to build.
You would have to use Black Kirium and magic iron and overlap dozens of large magic circles to get that much estimate.
“The head of the union said the situation was unstable. It’s a top secret, but he said you can tell it to President Shin Ji-hoo.”
“Aunt Miyeon can do that.”
“hahahaha. aunt I can’t imagine how many people can call him that. You are amazing.”
“It’s because we’re friendly.”
“Anyway, the training grounds and warehouses that we make behind… … You said to make a complete blockade possible even from the outside like a bunker type. Of course, materials and magic circles must be of the highest quality.”
“… … .”
Jihoo closed his mouth again.
what should i say about this
Does Aunt Miyeon feel this anxiety? The sense that the present peace will not last long. Anxiety that war will start again.
“okay. i look forward to.”
“you’re welcome. I’ll just go. I’ve disrupted business.”
“no.”
he really went
All we did was sit here, get a cup of coffee, and exchange a few words. Jihoo doesn’t give anything, it seems he only received. Thanks, but not too burdensome.
But what if this is what he wanted?
‘He’s a great person.’
After a short meeting, Jihoo developed positive feelings for Hwang Se-hyeon, head of the department. It could have been different had he told more, but he went without wasting time.
I thought it was amazing and amazing.
with my daughter-
But I didn’t have time to think long.
because a guest has arrived.
I hope someone is saved soon.
“… … ?”
“hello! You said you were trying to save someone!”
“… … That’s right, though.”
The woman I thought was a guest was Kim Mi-ji. [Tower of Five Elements] A wizard of fire and wind, a genius wizard who will now become a 5-star.
She is friends with Lee Hee-yeon and Ji-hoo’s magic teacher.
“I want to work! I heard that Heeyeon Lee will look after you on the weekend?”
“Who is it?”
“Go Heeyeon!”
“… … .”
“… … ?”
“… … Well, come in now.”
I had to go through an interview.
The problem is that an interview is not an interview, but a baptism of questions.
“Didn’t you go into the tower?”
“that’s right. But this year’s seats are full, so I think I’ll go in this winter. I have about nine months left.”
“Is there a place for that?”
“I guess so. It is also the way to become an apprentice of the archmage, and resources are limited. In the meantime, while working here, I have a good eye for artifacts, help the president with research, get incentives, and climb together!”
“… … .”
Jihoo grabbed his head.
He had nothing to lose. She wasn’t completely trustworthy, but she wasn’t dangerous either.
In addition, they are now high-level personnel who will become 5-star wizards. If such a person comes to work as a general store clerk, how can he use it comfortably?
“No, more than that, what is Lee Hee-yeon?”
“What am I!”
Lee Hee-yeon put her face in and shouted outside the window. I was surprised to see that only my neck was floating in the air.
“… … be surprised Why don’t you come in and do it there!”
“It’s because you talk behind my back.”
“What is the back story? And when did I say I used you?”
“Why, if a high-class manpower like me would do it, even bowing down and accepting it would not be enough! Besides, it would be really nice to climb with Midge, right? A wizard is a wizard because he is a wizard- and then.”
“That’s right, but-”
“So what happened?!”
“no-“
“nice! I’m on the weekend! Miji will do it on weekdays. The opening is done by the boss, and we’ll help out during busy times. Wouldn’t it be okay to do it from 7:00 to 11:00 or from 16:00 to 18:00?”
“Wouldn’t that be enough? The hourly wage should be around 1.5 million won. Will you pay for lunch too?”
“It will. maybe.”
Jihoo grabbed his head.
Ignoring the boss and talking with the employees, there is nothing wrong with it. Gihoo is better if you help out during the busiest time.
It’s open, Jihoo lives on the second floor, so it was convenient to do it yourself, and the hourly wage or lunch money is ridiculously small for them.
“for a moment! Why do you have to do this?”
Jihoo intervened between the two.
Then Lee Hee-yeon answered.
“You are busy. It’s been hectic all day, but it’s obvious that someone will be sent to monitor it somewhere else, but you’re going to use an outsider?”
“… … .”
“You have to grow up to eat soybean paste.”
“hehehe, I just need a little advice from the station manager!”
Jihoo shook his head.
Lee Hee-yeon gets serious sometimes, which really makes her speechless. Besides, it was not for himself, but for Jihoo, so he couldn’t refuse.
So I have to believe… … .
“Kuhmm, more than that, the reward for this climb is… … ? lol.”
It’s not like I’m worried as a friend, it’s more like an NPC giving a quest. Well, that’s not too bad either.

work has drastically decreased.
It had to be.
[Healing Wand] and [Flying] artifacts in the general store. And it was thanks to the news that the modified [firearms] were all sold out.
In addition, if you let them know that they will come in one by one every Saturday morning, you don’t have to wait in line.
“Are you crazy?”
“You can make one, right?”
“I have to make that much.”
Jihoo’s daily routine has changed a lot.
Waking up at dawn, opening a general store, and drinking coffee are the same. Instead, drink another cup of coffee.
When Lee Hee-yeon or Kim Mi-ji arrives at 7:00, Ji-hoo sits down at the workbench and starts with an urgent request. There are staff until 11 o’clock, so you can only concentrate on work.
that was so comfortable
“Soon it will be 11:00. What would you like to eat?”
“I’m the sixth.”
“also?”
“You’re going to eat meat, too.”
“… … AC, there’s a homemade burger restaurant over there this time, let’s go!”
It was nice to have lunch friends, and to be able to eat a variety of menus. Jihoo also made a lunch break at the general store for about an hour from 11:00 and didn’t open.
Return alone at 12 o’clock.
This is the most quiet time. There were no climbing Hunters, and no Hunters descending. There are only hunters or outsiders to climb the next day.
Ji-hoo receives guests while studying at the time. Since it is a study accompanied by [understanding], it seems like you are turning over the bookshelves, but if you study at that speed, the occasional visitor comes as a reminder.
At that time, I also do a little bit of production.
Arms that week [Healing Wand] and a flight artifact with [Intermediate Flight]. And [firearms] are produced and modified.
It was for practice and understanding. Making various artifacts in different ways like that helped Jihoo a lot.
And at 16:00, Lee Hee-yeon comes.
It is time for those who drop by [Tower of Indomitability] to stop by the general store to sell by-products or ask for an appraisal.
So Ji-hoo is also busy at this time.
I had to do an appraisal, and I had to clean up the by-products. At least, receiving guests was comfortable because Lee Hee-yeon was there.
In the past, I wondered how I could do this alone.
And at 18:00, the general store closes.
“What are you having for dinner tonight?”
“Why are you buying that too?”
“What a waste!”
“No, I am busy. There is a mountain of work to do.”
“… … Too bad. I could have missed more.”
“hey-“
“See you tomorrow, buddy!”
Also, it was quite nice that I wasn’t alone in the general store. There was no time to be bored, and there was no time to be lonely.
Jihoo checked the [Flight] artifact that Felix’s wings were based on. The circuit was all engraved, and a high-grade mana stone was made and absorbed with the intermediate mana stone.
On the back, Felix’s wings were visible enough to protrude a little from the adult upper body, and the front was made of horse iron.
And [history setting] is finished.
“… … It’s done.”
『Felix’s Wings [Space/Flight] [History] [Lv. 08]』
: A flying artifact made with Felix’s wings and high-grade floating stones as the main axis. The efficiency of high-speed flight has been greatly increased by using spatial distortion without reducing speed when changing direction. Also, with extreme space distortion, Felix’s Blink level could be raised.
The unfortunate thing is that the flight time is not long even with the use of high-grade mana stones, as there are an absurdly high level of circuitry.
* [Intermediate Flight]
* [Intermediate Blink]
The name was used as it was [Felix’s Wings], which was a by-product. A name and a by-product to put on [history]. This is because the relationship between options is important.
A combination of high-class floatation stone, low-class artificial intelligence and low-class artificial intelligence combined with the vortex using Sozo’s feathers, and Felix’s spatial influence combined to complete one [intermediate flight].
On top of that, I was able to raise the optional low-level blinks of Felix’s wings to [intermediate] through circuits such as space distortion, high-level mana stones, amplification and conversion.
The completion of this was the level 8 flying artifact [Felix’s Wings].
It’s definitely regrettable.
‘If you put in the growth type, you have to put in the self-repair, but the volume is breathtaking, and to some extent it overlaps with the lower artificial intelligence… … .’
Jihoo thought for a while.
And what I thought was [Intermediate AI]. I need to finish [understanding] as quickly as possible. If I make a little change, something special will come out.
