Episode 96
“If it’s a new effect… … .”
Fafnir immediately opened the skill window.
[Metal Rule]
-Rating: Legendary
-Classification: Active
-Consumed MP: 10 per second, depending on the metal.
-Cooldown: 3 minutes
– Duration: Until canceled.
-Effect: Control 750g of normal grade metal outside.
-Effect 2: You can dominate by registering directly ingested normal-magic grade metal into the slot.
After registering in each slot, the weight of metal that can be utilized is up to 250 kg.
[Metal Slot 1]
-Saryeong Jin Eun-cheol (unregistered)
-Metal Power: 63 (-30%)
-Rating: Legendary (being supported by the spirit)
-Engraving: None.
-characteristic : ???
* All stats are reduced by 30% because it is unregistered.
[Metal Slot 2: None.]
*To register a metal in a slot, it must be recognized by the owner of the metal.
*When metal is ingested, the mass of the ingested metal is reduced by 1/10.
-Skill level: 5
– Acquisition condition: Metal Dhampir
‘So this is a skill that can be used in two ways.’
Eat the metal to dominate, or use the metal you controlled as you please.
It is a combination of two skills.
‘If you are recognized as the owner of the metal, you can register the metal in the slot.’
Originally, Karamit’s armor was indigestible even if he ate it, but it seemed that he could digest it this way because his soul, Karamit, was helping him.
‘But if this is digestion, how do I excrete the metal I ate?’
Fafnir stuck out his finger.
At that moment, blue metal began to form at the tip.
‘It was something like this.’
Like the superhero in the movie, ‘Spider Man’, he can emit metal from his body.
The difference was that it could be emitted not only from the fingertips but also from other bodies.
‘I’m glad I didn’t have to throw up or go to the bathroom.’
Fafnir let out a sigh of relief and thought.
‘What is the imprint?’
When I looked at the skill window, an explanation appeared.
*Engraving: By engraving a magical imprint on the metal registered in the slot, additional effects can be given to the metal.
For engraving, you need an empty skill book of the same grade as the metal grade.
For example, putting jewels on weapons or adding additional enchantments.
‘It’s going to break a lot of money.’
High-level skill books are more expensive than equipment items.
Legendary level skill books cost hundreds of millions of won.
In addition, such items do not appear on the market themselves.
Even for the same type of metal, when increasing the amount, the engraving had to be removed and then newly engraved.
‘Looking at the explanation, this was a completely gold cutlery job, right?’
I don’t know if people like large guild masters, conglomerates, or politicians got it.
If a user like Fafnir without a bag or anything took over, it was obvious that he would go bankrupt within a month.
‘If I hadn’t known the hidden pieces in the novel, I would have been in big trouble.’
– How, do you think it went well?
Then Karamit’s voice was heard.
“It seems so now. Thanks.”
-okay. Juven used to eat metal this way too. Was it once a week? At that time, I wanted something… … . Could it be that he was a vampire?
Karamit recalls the past.
Fafnir recalled a fact for a moment and said.
“Caramit-sama.”
-hmm?
“Could you disarm me for a moment? Just a small piece.”
– I see.
“thank you.”
– Oh, and this isn’t iron.
“yes?”
-M. S. Lil. Iran. It is the best armor made of pure mithril, not iron.
“… … .”
The appearance of wanting people to know about supercars, luxury watches, and suits!
For some reason, I felt like I knew a little more about Karamit.
“All right. Then unlock the mithril armor… … .”
– I’ll do it now.
Karamit removed the possession of part of the armor.
At that moment, something came up my throat.
“Wook!”
Fafnir vomited up the lump of metal that rose to his mouth.
‘This… … ! It’s a piece of the Dragon Armor I ate earlier!’
If he had canceled everything as it was, his body would have become a skewer.
‘I heard that eating metal reduces mass, but is this the same?’
Perhaps the mass shrinkage effect didn’t happen because Calamit was holding onto it as a soul.
“Please stay that way.”
– I see.
Sending it out by hand was fortunately no problem.
Karamit asked Fafnir, who sent all the armor outside.
-Are you sure you can handle your abilities now?
“yes.”
Karamit’s spirit returned to the armor and said.
-Then let me say it again, if you want to save humans in a great war, I will help you with my sword.
Again, the contract is emphasized.
You may be wondering if you don’t believe it.
“All right.”
– But there is a condition.
There are two reasons why Karamit helps Fafnil.
Helping humans not to perish in a great war.
In addition, it is to thoroughly take revenge on the beasts and descendants who drove him to be a traitor.
-Those who use that pattern, and those who call it the Apocalypse Church, are all unforgiving. I wish you wouldn’t block this.
“of course.”
In the first place, the Doomsday Church is a villain-like organization created by players to be easy to beat.
I don’t know if he would join the church’s forces, but there was no reason to refuse.
– Well then. I, Karamit, swear to follow you!
-Karamit came in as a minion.
-Currently, it can only be summoned in a spiritual state.
Since he did not have a suitable body, he could not have him fight directly.
“Whoa… … .”
Fafnil sighed after confirming what was left.
“First of all, what should I do with this armor?”
When I put my hand on the armor, information came out.

-Description: Exclusive armor for the old dragon knight Karamit. The best technology of Dwarves and humans at the time was generously incorporated, and the whole was made of refined mithril and filled with pure mana.
As the current owner, Karamit, was corrupted, it became a dark mithril armor full of dark mana.
From noble mtl dot com.
great ability!
As a legendary item, it has terrifying performance, but the three conditions below overshadowed all of them.
‘You’d have to be a troll to wear this.’
If you wear a full set, it drops by 1.2% per second.
1 minute 30 seconds if you fight normally.
No matter how well we fought, it was difficult to exceed 2 minutes.
“Karamit-nim, it seems difficult to wear or use this right now.”
The level is not enough to absorb right away, so you need to keep the equipment!
-is it? It’s a nice armor. I’ve been exposed to the darkness of the abyss too long.
“Then can I take care of this myself?”
-Do whatever you feel like.
Karamit readily agreed.
– He said he would add a sword for humanity, and he said he would also take revenge. As long as I don’t sell it to the merchants, I don’t care.
“thank you.”
Even if the metal is melted down and sold, it is worth hundreds of millions of won.
However, that was the lowest price when selling as a material.
‘I’ll have to find a blacksmith who can properly process the armor.’
After thinking, Fafnir asked.
“By the way, Mr. Karamit.”
-hmm?
“When I took off that armor earlier. Could it be that I can call Karamit-sama and release it with what I think?”
When to put on and when to take off the armor.
It was quite embarrassing to sing Karamit with voice.
“You know that? Since I possessed it, I even shared my thoughts.”
-… … you.
Karamit said quietly.
– I guess I read too many novels.
Fafnil became a mute after eating honey at once.
* * *
After escaping Mount Moria.
The first thing to do was to complete the quest given by Gould.
‘Master told me to go quickly, so I can’t help it.’
[Finding the traces of Lecheln]
-Rating: Normal
-target
-Arrived at Aluin Wilderness (0/1)
-Find a clue to the traces of Lacheln (0/1)
-Description: The legendary black magician Lahelen was called the Demon King because of her power. Recently, news has been heard that such traces of Lecheln have been found in the Aluin Wilderness, and it is attracting the attention of warlocks.
-Reward: EXP, 1 silver
‘It’s an Aluin wilderness… … .’
Searching through the Horizon Web quickly yielded results.
‘The monster that appears is a red rock mini golem… … .’
At level 250, a man-sized rock monster that can easily attack at close range and throw stones.
It would be a bit difficult for swordsmen and warriors, but hunting was possible with mace-type weapons or wizards.
‘There’s no big problem with the blood demon sword.’
The Aluin Wilderness was quite far away.
I could have just gone and come back, but it was a waste of time to pass through without doing anything!
‘I guess I’ll have to do the revival army PR quest as well.’
Fafnil searched for cities along the way and entered them.
The lords of both cities met Fafnir right away.
“I’ve heard about his activities in Byron City. If you do one favor, I will do your favor.”
The content of each request is to clear the group of dark kobolds and catman tribes that have become stronger by accepting the mana of darkness.
Since both are numerous and have multiple bases, it was a ‘troublesome’ task that required a lot of manpower and time to process.
‘It’s easy.’
Although it was as easy as twisting a child’s wrist compared to using each of the dragons’ habits.
“All together, charge for bloody glory.”
“K-K-K-K-K-K! Kill them all!”
After infiltrating the skeleton knight Louis and the vampire Bell into each tribe and disguising them as black magic.
Arbitrarily colliding two monster tribes!
The soldiers of the territory did not move, and the place was remote, so the monster tribes fought without the least vigilance.
All Fafnir had to do was step in and wipe it out at the moment when the fight was ripe!
-You have completed the quest ‘Eradication of Dark Kobolds (Magic)’.
– Level up!
You got -2 gold.
– Baron Brecht’s affection has increased by +10.
-Quest ‘Stop the cat’s cry! (Magic)’ has been completed.
You got -1 gold and 50 silver.
-Obtained Wind Leather Boots.
– Reputation has increased by +50.
After receiving the reward for subjugation first.
the lords asked.
“Is there anything else you want?”
“If there is anything you want, I will listen.”
Everyone knows because rumors spread, but it’s like a play made up and played.
Fafnir also tuned in to that.
“Princess Elizabeth’s revival army is in the southern part of the kingdom. If this revival army rises, may I ask for supplies and military support?”
“What about the officers of the revival army?”
“Old man, Sharpyear, Earl Blackheart.”
“It’s a bit unreliable, but… … . A person like you is a subordinate, so let’s bet on that.”
– Completed the completion conditions for the quest ‘Revival Army Public Relations (Magic)’.
– You can get a reward by going to Princess Elizabeth.
Accomplish the quest to promote the Kingdom Resurrection Army!
“Oh, and push Count Blackheart out as quickly as possible. He’s someone you shouldn’t use near.”
“… … .”
It had been a long time since the noble NPCs of the plains had heard the rumors about Count Blackheart.
Fafnil nodded.
“I already felt it when I saw it. We will move soon.”
“okay.”
“Please, please.”
A nobleman who trusts God.
It was then.
Goo Goo!
A dove with a letter tied to its foot flew to Fafnil.
“This… … .”
When Fafnir received the letter and opened it, the contents appeared.
[To Fafnir
I heard about what you did in Byron City. As the head of the revival army, and as the royal family of the kingdom, I express my gratitude.]
Thank you for promoting the extermination of orcs and the revival forces.
In addition, there was news about the progress of the camp.
[Currently, the base of Mount Aiolos has been completely stabilized, and it is forming a sphere of influence by linking with the surrounding lords.
Since the unicorns are also cooperative, they are killing the monsters around the mountain together.
It’s just that it’s a little inconvenient to find the female knight who was with the ball.]
It’s definitely the nature of unicorns, so it can’t be helped!
[Anyway, since your credit is great, I would like to express my gratitude once again.
The reason I sent you this letter is to entrust you with one more mission.]
“mission?”
Fafnir read the contents.
[We have found some stability, but we still lack a lot in the big phase.
Among them, the biggest vacancy is for talented people like you.
Grand Duke Gowin accepted the adventurers as his subordinates, so it was her idea that we couldn’t sit still.
If there are any promising adventurers, grant them the temporary title of baron of the kingdom so that they can focus on reviving the kingdom.]
– The quest ‘Recruitment of Talent’ (Magic) has been created in connection with the Resurrection Army promotion.
‘Linked Quest!’
The quest that follows the promotion of the revival army.
‘You can’t leave me alone and I’m trying to make you work again!’
If you finish your work quickly in the military or company, other work comes endlessly!
Fafnir sighed and pressed accept.
– You have accepted the Talent Recruitment (Magic) quest.
‘I can’t help it because I’ve invested a lot, but I can’t live because I’m unfair if I keep going like this.’
If I can use it, I will use it all!
‘To do so… … .’
Fafnil looked southwest.
‘I’ll have to start with the Aluin Wilderness.’
