71 – World 11. New sword union (4)
Even though I was sighing, Lee Siyeon didn’t care and only smiled calmly.
Looking at the reaction, it seemed that it was half serious and half joking.
I looked at Lee Si-yeon for a moment, then turned my head and asked Ayla, who was still haggard.
“What are you doing up to here?”
“······The two said they wanted to see Lee Seong-min.”
Ayla had a lot to say on her face, but she answered simply.
It seems that Lee Si-yeon and Shin Ji-ae used a group.
‘Certainly, I haven’t visited him since that day.’
It was also my fault for not even thinking about going to District 1 because I was learning how to handle the hatchery and how to combine swords.
Then, Lee Si-yeon asked me again.
“When will you introduce the other person?”
“Ah, this is Mr. Hayden. I am also the owner of this building.”
I introduced Hayden first and then the rest of the group.
“This is Karina-san. Muel and Len next to me.”
“It seems that Mr. Muell and Mr. Ren have not talked.”
“Somehow.”
Since my first meeting with Muel was in a different world, I was already accustomed to letting go of words.
On the contrary, he found it awkward to use honorifics, so he had no choice but to let go, and if Ren was still young, he would let go of it at a young age.
“Hmm.”
At that time, Siyeon Lee looked at Carina, Muelle, and Ren with curious eyes, wondering what she was thinking.
Along with him, Karina took a step forward and spoke to Siyeon Lee.
“My name is Karina. Are you Seongmin Lee’s colleague?”
“Yes. This is Siyeon Lee.”
As soon as Karina spoke to her, Lee Si-yeon reacted quickly, introduced herself with a smile, and slowly looked at Karina’s face.
Naturally, Karina, who couldn’t help but notice that gaze, raised her hand and touched her face without realizing it.
Lee Si-yeon immediately apologized.
“Oh, sorry. You are so pretty that I stared at you without realizing it.”
“・・・・・Pretty?”
Karina asked as if she didn’t understand at all.
Objectively, this is because Lee Si-yeon was superior in terms of features, skin, body, etc.
However, Lee Si-yeon achieved transcendence of the body and transcendence of the human body.
Here, metamorphosis and body transcendence also made the appearance more ideal.
Anyway, Lee Si-yeon nodded to Karina and reached out her hand, creating a bright atmosphere and a smile.
“Let’s be friends from now on.”
“Ah… yes.”
As I watched, I spoke to Siyeon Lee before she started talking nonsense.
“Are there any special problems in other worlds?”
“Well. What? Oh, when I arrived at the fort and said it was 5 stars, everyone liked it. After that, I went outside and caught the thugs.”
I expected it, but Lee Si-yeon also got a 5-star job.
“Fortunately, it looks like you got a 5-star job.”
“Looking at people’s reactions, I thought the 5-star job was great, but… everyone else got a 5-star job too.”
“entire?”
“yes.”
I couldn’t help but be a little surprised to hear that all my colleagues were 5-star jobs.
I don’t know if everyone made achievements like me, but that wasn’t the case either.
‘Or will fighting alongside me and saving the world count as an achievement?’
If that’s the case, I understand.
“Among the 5-star jobs we got, the one we had in common was ‘transcendentalist’. Other than that, it seemed like I got another job depending on my achievements.”
“A person who transcends the body?”
“Everyone went through metamorphosis and body transcendence. It must have been replaced by an achievement.”
Breaking out of human limits through body transcendence seemed to be counted as a 5-star achievement.
‘Is that why everyone got 5-star jobs?’
Whatever the reason, it’s not a bad thing.
Because more than 40 people all got 5-star jobs.
To be honest, it was as if the power of mankind had increased dramatically.
‘Before I came over, they said there were only 7 5-star jobs.’
It would not be an exaggeration to say that there were about 50 of them now.
I also looked around and found Hayden, Carina, and Muel looking at Lee Si-yeon with surprised eyes.
It seemed to be because all of my colleagues got 5-star jobs.
Looking at it this way, I have made a tremendous contribution to humanity in another world.
That’s because the number of 5-star jobs for me and my colleagues has increased.
It was to the point of taking it for granted even if the body level went up significantly, including the protection level.
Of course, I just thought that, nodding my head at Lee Si-yeon’s words and asking for a job.
“Then are you also a person who transcends the body?”
“no? I chose to be the seeker of the sword. It’s a job where you can learn a lot of sword-related skills.”
In addition to being a transcendentalist, Lee Si-yeon seemed to have other 5-star jobs as well.
I then tapped Shin Ji-ae on the shoulder as if to make up for the time she was still holding in my arms and asked.
“You?”
“Magic Sculptor.”
What else is a sculptor?
While I was thinking, Lee Si-yeon answered instead.
“I think it’s a job to create something to attack after combining magical powers. It’s also a power similar to Shin Ji-ae’s original ability.”
Come to think of it, even in the 8th world, where I first met Shin Ji-ae, she was a magician who used magical shaping.
It seems that that power was newly acquired as a job in this world.
‘In a way, is it an opportunity to further increase the original strength?’
Shin Ji-ae was walking the path of a wizard in her own way, so she looked better than someone who transcended her body.
“So, are you doing well?”
This time, on the contrary, Lee Si-yeon asked me.
The answer was not difficult, so he answered right away.
“I got a mission to handle the hatchery, and now I’m trying to learn the new sword union.”
“yes? New Swordsman Day?”
After hearing my answer, Siyeon tilted her head and opened her mouth.
“I thought you got it naturally after swinging the sword a few times?”
“…?”
huh?
“You got it?”
When asked again, Siyeon nodded calmly.
“Aside from that, I also gained a thing called One Mind Tonggam.”
One thought cancer?
It meant that if you focus your mind, the arrow will pierce the rock.
If you translate it, it’s about unbelievably great power with concentration.
“Effect?”
“Did you say that if you concentrate, a correction value will be added to your skill training? I heard that the attack power increases again.”
For reference, the new sword union effect has the effect of sharpening the senses and reducing physical strength when swinging the sword.
“Looks like you were able to achieve more than one enlightenment.”
“I’m sure Shin Ji-ae got this too?”
“Shin Ji-ae too?”
······For some reason, I felt like I was the only one who didn’t get it.
‘Although I’m stronger now.’
Among the game items, I was wearing legendary equipment, and there were magic cards, summon cards, and numbering items, so I would be stronger in terms of combat power.
Aside from that, I didn’t know if my colleagues could outrun me.
‘Should I work harder?’
Seeing me bitter inside, Lee Si-yeon asked as if wondering.
“But it’s strange that you didn’t get it. tell me in detail.”
“Details?”
“If I know what the problem is, I will tell you something.”
I’m not sure if it’ll be helpful or not, but I didn’t lose anything even if I told you, so I told you everything.
To put it simply, the sense of the union of the new swords was clearly felt here, but it was not felt when connected to other worlds.
And when I said that it seemed to work because of the gap, but it didn’t work, Lee Si-yeon looked at me with strange eyes.
“You’re only concerned about the new sword union.”
“nerve?”
“yes. I didn’t get that. I didn’t even know there was a new sword union in the first place.”
As soon as Lee Si-yeon finished speaking, Shin Ji-ae, who was in my arms, raised her head and stared at me.
At first glance, the face was expressionless, but the look in his eyes showed that he was slightly frustrated.
Why is he like this again?
“Don’t think of combining new swords, but swing your sword thinking that you will unleash the greatest swordsmanship you can. Then you will get it easily.”
“…”
Hearing that reminded me of Hayden’s earlier remark that being too obsessive was not good.
‘Don’t worry about the union of the new swords and spread the maximum swordsmanship.’
When I think about it, it seemed that I swung the sword thinking too much about the new sword union.
Thanks to that, I was able to clearly understand what Hayden meant by obsession, and I nodded and thanked Siyeon Lee.
“okay, thanks.”
“Thank you. No, if you are grateful, come visit me once. Because everyone wants to see it.”
“Hasn’t it only been a week?”
“It’s been a week.”
I said that I understand that it is not my fault that I came here after summoning my colleagues and leaving them all in District 1.
“okay. I will visit you often.”
“yes. That’s enough.”
After finishing the conversation with Siyeon Lee, I continued to look at Ayla and bring out the thoughts I had at the beginning.
“You look very tired.”
“… it’s nothing special.”
Apart from the answer, the facial expression felt the opposite.
‘Somehow, I think it’s because of my colleagues.’
I asked what I had done in return, thinking that it would be better to divert my words rather than bring up a related subject.
“Come to think of it, what happened to the shield and the water?”
“ah. The protective film is stable. The swarming ghosts are arranging them as they can be seen. Water can be provided at certain times.”
Even though dozens of [Enchantment: Create Water], one of its powers, were granted, it seems that the supply to the entire city was not enough.
“Thanks to Lee Seong-min, the city started to return to normal. Thank you so much for this.”
“What.”
Even so, it seemed to be enough to catch my breath.
