The Wise Lord chapter 57

Episode 57 – Hyunjil, Hyunjil! (1)

Buzzing deaf ears.

“…?”

“──Map… I don’t know.”

“I mean——de.”

I couldn’t properly recognize the sound because my mind seemed to be swimming in the water.

That moment.

Cheer up.

There was a sound that could be heard clearly in a blank mind.

Somewhere warm, but strangely, the sound of a heart pounding.

I don’t know if it’s because of that.

The spirit of Xian, who had been wealthy, began to return little by little.

– Could this be?

“Anyway, this is…”

“If you look at the lord’s disposition so far, there’s a good chance.”

Soon, the buzzing sound also began to be heard properly.

A spirit that has returned after a little while.

Xian’s eyes widened and opened.

-Eh?

“what?”

“uh?”

Xian’s widened eyes saw three women.

Leah floating in the air.

Embarrassed Ellie.

And Amelia holding something.

The three of them stared blankly at Xian, as if embarrassed by Xian’s sudden awakening.

The surrounding scenery seemed to be a fantasy healing center Lv.2.

Xian opened his mouth with a look that wanted something.

“what are you doing?”

Then Amelie and Ellie ran away in a hurry.

“Gee, is it real?”

“Nonsense! How could this…!”

Amelia and Ellie looked at Xian in disbelief.

-Ji, you said it was real…?

Leah also showed an expression of disbelief.

Sian really wanted something and asked Leah.

“What were you doing?”

-Ah, that’s… You haven’t woken up for almost a week, so you’ve been doing something to wake me up.

“A week?”

Have you been passed out for a week?

-huh. Ellie says there’s nothing wrong with her body, but she doesn’t want to wake up.

Apparently, the aftermath of the Suracheonslaughter was quite serious.

Hagi Knight, all the joints in his body were severed and all his muscles were torn.

Rather, it was like he had only fainted for a week.

no, by the way

“What are these piles of gold coins?”

Xian looked at the pile of gold coins piled up on his chest.

By the looks of it, it seemed to be around 100 gold…

-He did it!

Leah smiled mischievously and pointed to one side.

“Oh, sister! You were supposed to keep it a secret!”

The gaze followed Leah’s fingers like that.

What Cyan saw in his field of vision was Amelia, a bewildered naked beauty.

“Ah… that… I’m afraid you’ll wake up if you hear the sound of gold coins…”

Because you love money so much.

Amelia let out a laugh.

Then, slowly, he began to look.

Sian sighed involuntarily.

“Do you think that makes sense?”

“Ha ha… no. I hope the lord did that. I just want you to wake up soon…”

Amelia waved her hand and said.

However, he couldn’t hide his serious expression.

And Ellie, who was next to Amelia.

Ellie was looking at Xian again with an expression of disbelief.

Xian said firmly.

“Absolutely not.”

“Hey, isn’t it?”

Ellie nodded at Xian’s denial.

But anyway.

Ellie also couldn’t hide her meaningful expression.

‘What the hell do you see me as?’

Xian let out a deep sigh.

“······ Decoction···.”

“Is that going to be…?”

Before long, Ellie and Amelia start whispering to each other.

-I’m trying to decoct gold coins and feed them?

Startle!

Amelia and Ellie shuddered at Leah’s words.

And he looked at Xian with trembling eyes.

“Ahh! There were bodies that hadn’t been disposed of yet!”

“Gee, it looks like an emergency patient has arrived!”

I ran out of the room like that.

Leah laughed, bashing at what was so funny.

Seeing those things, Xian also burst into laughter.

It was fortunate.

Because I was able to see those faces again safely like this.

‘No matter how much gold coins are decocted to feed them.’

Xian looked at the piles of gold coins piled up on his chest.

And sneakily, I didn’t forget to put a pile of gold coins into my inventory.

#

The result of checking the condition of the body.

Xian could confirm that there was no great strain on his body.

One second of the Mahon Sura Sword, Sura Thousand Kills (修羅天殺).

It was Xi’an whose whole body was smashed in return for trying to reach that unreachable state.

However, within a week, all of those injuries were healed.

Of course, I haven’t fully recovered yet, but there was no major disruption to my life.

It was a truly miraculous recovery speed.

And this is what makes it possible.

Recently upgraded fantasy healing center Lv.2.

And Ellie’s amazing healing skills.

It was a synergistic effect of the two.

The treatment of most priests was far from over.

so never

I didn’t wake up to the sound of gold coins.

I wonder if the sound of gold coins woke me up.

Sian shook his head.

anyway.

After sending Leia away, Sian sorted out the situation.

The first thing to think about was, of course, the resurrection of the devil.

The demon that disappeared a thousand years ago has resurrected.

I asked Leah for a moment, and Leah didn’t know anything either.

Hagi Knight, Leah is a commander who has been confined to the hall for the past thousand years.

We didn’t even know how the continents flowed in the last thousand years.

That’s why I didn’t know how the demon was able to resurrect…

“Was this the truth Kyle faced?”

None other than ＜[Story Linked Quest] – ‘The Truth Kyle Faces’＞

But even that wasn’t certain, even when he faced Nurbia, no additional linked quests came to mind.

Above all, if Kyle knew that the devil would resurrect, there would be no reason to leave alone.

I must have informed the other Arnaises as well.

Or does it have something to do with what Nurbia is looking for?

“hmm···.”

deepening troubles.

However, Xian quickly dispelled his worries.

Even if I thought about it right now, it wasn’t something I could know.

“I’ll need to make sure I’m prepared first.”

What mattered right now was this.

It was a situation where he could come again anytime after he had come to Ruben once.

And the devil was also strong.

It was not easy to figure out its identity.

They have the same appearance and energy as humans.

If it wasn’t for Xi’an, no one would have noticed.

If I did, I would have been in a really terrible situation.

Fortunately, there was a demon detector brought from Arnaise Hall.

A demon detector of a higher level than the one sold to Arya, made by Archmage Elodie a thousand years ago.

“I’ll have Jerry do some research on that first.”

and.

“Should I inform His Highness, the Crown Prince?”

The fact that the devil was resurrected was not just Ruben’s problem, but the entire continent.

That’s why I had to tell you this.

“hmm···.”

Xian couldn’t make the decision easily.

That’s because there was no evidence that the devil was resurrected.

Nurbia fled,

In the end, the only evidence was the testimony of the local people.

That’s why Xi’an and the people of the territory, the devil has been resurrected! Everyone should be prepared!

If you shout like this, who the hell will believe you?

I’ll just treat you like an idiot

You might think that it was encroached on by demons in the dark forest and eventually went out of its mind…

“Let’s hold off for now.”

Xian finally decided to put it on hold.

After tidying up like that.

Xian found a smartphone in his arms and took it out.

“Come to think of it, it seems that a lot of notification windows have popped up on my smartphone.”

Numerous notification windows popped up right before none other than Xian passed out.

But I couldn’t check it properly because I was so distracted.

Xi’an runs the mobile lords straight away.

Then, check the ‘unconfirmed notification window’.

The first thing I saw was the progress rate of the Mahon Sura sword and the Mahon manufacturing method.

[Mahon Recipe 10.2% (+6.1%) progress rate]

[Mahon Sura Sword (魔魂修羅劍) Beginner Progression Rate 37.5% (+37.42%)]

“oh.”

Hemp blend method is 6.1%

The Mahon Sura sword rose by a whopping 37.42%.

It was a progress rate that had risen by 0.08% in the last Dwarf Village.

Suracheonsal (修羅天殺) rose by 37.42% at once.

But unlike the right progress.

Xian couldn’t do it even if he tried to kill Suracheon again.

Because Xian didn’t know how he did it.

I couldn’t think of it as if the memory of that time had been cut out.

Literally, a state that Xi’an could not reach at present.

But Xi’an finally reached it,

After some practice, I could do it again.

of course.

“Not just a few times, but thousands of times…”

Even in the correct position.

Xian let out a laugh.

Xian checked the next notification window again.

Next was none other than the legendary achievement, ‘Demon Hunter’.

It was probably obtained by confronting Nurbia.

And considering the rewards of the previous legendary achievements…

“also.”

Like ＜Charlotte’s Pride＞, a new Arnaise perk was unlocked.

【Arnaise’s Blessing】

②【＜Morcrew’s Flame＞: Light the flame! Take out your hammer and lift up!]

[Effect 1] – Increases the effect of all buildings in the territory by +500%!

[Effect 2] – Equipment made in the smithy of the territory where there is a blacksmith who is more than a skilled worker has B-grade quality!

[Effect 3] – Morkru’s Forge Lv.1 is open!

[Unlock condition – Obtain 2 or more legendary achievements (achievement)]

.

.

“oh!”

Xian screamed involuntarily.

That’s because the effect was so great.

It was unknown what Morkru’s Forge Lv.1, which had an effect of 3, was.

However, from the name, isn’t it the forge of ‘Morcru’?

One of the six Arnaises, Morcru, the Goddess.

It must have been nothing out of the ordinary.

Above all, the content of effect 2.

I didn’t know what grade B quality was.

However, considering the S-grade equipment Xian currently uses, the B-grade quality was by no means low.

However, there was a condition attached to being a blacksmith who was more than a skilled worker…

Aren’t there dwarves in Ruben now!

Let alone skilled workers, artisans were overflowing!

Even once applied, the effect lasts forever.

This, too, could be referred to as an opening pass.

And this too.

《＜Fire of Morkru＞ opening cost – 500,000 G》

It was always ‘open’.

“······ sh*t.”

Xian murmured involuntarily.

The gold coins in the inventory that I checked lightly were 170,000 gold.

I was spoiled without a choice.

“This bastard’s quality is real…”

what though

As the dwarves entered the territory, the population must have increased.

Sell the trolls you’ve been working on,

Also, if he sold the mana stones, he would be able to collect enough.

“Amelia will suffer a little.”

Xian shrugged once.

And at the end of the notification window you checked.

[Additional Reward: Morkru’s Legacy.]

Additional rewards obtained by overfulfilling estate quests.

However, this only pops up the notification window.

There was no other explanation for this.

“what?”

the moment you want.

-I heard that the lord woke up…

Suddenly, an old voice came from outside the door.

familiar voice. It was none other than Semir, the chieftain of the Hammer Anvil tribe.

-Ah yes. wait a minute.

Ellie’s voice followed.

Before long, Ellie entered with a light knocking sound.

“Younglord. Chief Semir has come to visit.”

What’s going on?

“Ask me to come in.”

Xian put the smartphone aside for a moment.

Ellie disappeared from sight at Xian’s words.

And soon after, Semir showed up.

“How are you… how are you?”

Semir approached Xian and asked.

Xian nodded slightly and said.

“it’s okay. Ellie is really good at healing.”

“Surely… the way he treats his tribe members is phenomenal.”

Semir nodded in approval.

Apparently, while Xian passed out, the dwarves also looked after him.

Silence that subsides for a moment.

Eventually, Semir looked at Xian and opened his mouth.

“… I don’t know how to thank you first.”

Xian said with a small smile.

“Helen will definitely be saved.”

Semir didn’t answer.

I just stared blankly at Xian.

“I really didn’t know I would say something like this…”

Semir opened his mouth slowly.

“I believe in the lord.”

Semir had a lot of trust in Xian.

It was Semir who didn’t trust humans that much…

Sian scratched the back of his head in embarrassment.

“Did you come to tell me that?”

“There’s that too… Actually, I came here because of this.”

At Xian’s question, Semir took out something wrapped in a cloth.

None other than Xian’s sword.

It was an S-grade sword that was used in mobile lords.

Somehow, it looks like Semir had it while Xian passed out.

“I’m sorry for looking at you without your permission.”

“What is fine?”

Semir apologized for that, but Xian didn’t care.

After all, no one could use it except Xian.

“But why is my sword…?”

At Xian’s question, Semir took something out of his arms once again.

What Semir took out was a black stone.

Is it a mana stone with demonic energy?

I thought I would, but it wasn’t.

Because I didn’t feel the magic energy at all.

It wasn’t even that dark.

“Let’s call this the Black Stone.”

“A black stone?”

Semir nodded.

“Do you know an Arnaise named Kyle?”

“…?”

Sian tilted his head involuntarily.

I didn’t expect the name Kyle to come out of Semir’s mouth all of a sudden.

I don’t know if I know Xian’s feelings or not.

“There is a story in my tribe… no, it has been passed down from generation to generation of my ancestors.”

Semir opened his mouth slowly.

“A long time ago, your ancestors made your own weapons as well as other Arnaise’s weapons.”

Here, the ancestor Semir is talking about is none other than Morkru, the Goddess.

He was one of the 6 Arnaises.

“But they say they couldn’t make as many weapons as Kyle uses. To be precise, there was a sword that Kyle was using at the time, and it was already perfect by itself. Even the weapons made by our ancestors couldn’t be touched.”

“The ancestors created countless masterpieces to surpass that sword, but they say they couldn’t surpass it in the end. So the ancestor had no choice but to be content with improving that sword.”

“But they say they couldn’t even improve it. As I said, it was already a perfect sword.”

“But the ancestors did not give up. I thought about it over and over again, and finally found a way after consulting with another Arnaise Elodie. And that is…”

Semir said, pointing to the black stone in his hand.

“It’s this black stone.”

A pitch-black color of darkness that seems to have absorbed any light.

“It is said that the ancestors used the power of this black stone to improve Kyle’s sword. And this black stone has been passed down from generation to generation and is now in my hands.”

“But it was just a story handed down. Because contrary to the story, this black stone had no power. It wasn’t something I could polish.”

“So it was something I just stuck with…”

Semir’s gaze gently turned to one side.

It’s none other than an S-rank sword.

said Semir.

“For some reason, the sword the lord is using reacted with this black stone.”

“You mean my sword?”

Semir nodded.

And just then.

Tring!

In an instant, a cheerful notification sound came from the smartphone.

“Uh… wait a minute.”

Xian asked for Semir’s understanding for a moment, then looked at his smartphone.

A notification window popped up on the screen of such a smartphone.

《You have obtained Morcru’s legacy ‘Black Stone’!》

《【Enhancement】 items have been unlocked!》

‘······ enforce?’

Xian tilted his head.

Before long, numerous notification windows popped up on the smartphone screen.

《From now on, you can strengthen your equipment!》

《You can enhance your current equipment by using equipment of the same grade!》

《Current Equipment – [S-Grade Sword], [S-Grade Armor]》

[Enhancement cost 50,000G]

[Current enhancement rate 100%]

Tring!

《When you get stuck while progressing, try strengthening!》

.

.

‘······ What?’

Xian wanted something.

From what I can see, it looks like the items that can enhance Xian’s equipment have been unlocked…

‘By the way, is there a chance?’

Fortunately, the current probability was 100%.

But the word ‘present’ made me very anxious.

So, doesn’t that mean that the reinforcement rate may not be 100% at the next level?

More than anything.

‘Enhancement materials are of the same grade as equipment…’

The reinforcing materials were insane.

Simply put, to strengthen an S-rank sword, you must have an S-rank sword.

It’s also the way it’s nonsensical.

The problem was where to get an S-grade sword.

The S-grade sword I am using now was equipment purchased from the growth support beginner package.

I wanted to see if I could buy it again, but it was a product that was no longer available.

But where the heck is that…

Right then.

“I’ll have to do more research, but if I use this black stone, maybe… I can make the sword the lord uses.”

Semir’s voice was heard.

“uh···.”

Xian was speechless for a moment.

Semir said that he could make an S-class sword.

Are the descendants of the Goddess Morkru the descendants?

It seemed that Semir’s skills were superior to Xian’s.

“Of course it won’t be easy. The materials needed are also substantial. Apparently… it seemed to have a special power.”

He then roughly recited the necessary ingredients, but Xian quickly closed his ears.

I didn’t have to listen.

In a word, it meant that a huge amount of money was going into it.

It seemed that it would take about 300,000 gold to make one bag.

When I was active in the beginner package, it was 3,000 gold for a sword and armor set.

They said it was a super special deal and discount, but it seemed like it was.

‘······ sh*t.’

In order to sharpen and strengthen the perks, there is literally no gold left.

That moment.

Tring!

《When you get stuck while proceeding, try the hyeonjil!》

.

.

Hold on.

Xian pressed the X button without even looking.

leaking sigh.

It was then.

-The Bocchan woke up.

-Ah, Hans. yes. You’re talking to Chief Semir right now.

– Hmm… It’s a bit urgent, so I can’t help it.

smart.

“young master. This is Hans. I’m sorry during the conversation, but I have something urgent… May I come in for a moment?”

A short conversation between Hans and Ellie was heard outside, followed by a knock.

Sian glanced at Semir slightly,

Seeing Semir nod his head, he opened his mouth.

“come in.”

Click.

The door to the room opens and Hans appears.

But somehow, Hans’ face had grown old.

“How are you feeling?”

“As you can see, it’s fine. But Hans, you look worse than me.”

“That’s… taking care of the piled up work while the boy passed out…”

Hans is the administrator of the territory.

While Xian was gone, he seemed to have been unable to sleep at night because he had to deal with various things.

Thanks to that, Xian was able to pass out in peace, but…

“Especially this time, there are some newly incorporated Dwarves. Fortunately, they are adapting well, but the problem is that there are not enough places for Dwarves to live.”

Ruben was filled with various facilities as well as the living space of the residents, but there was no feeling that there was a lack of space.

However, to the establishment of various local governments and permanent residences that have been carried out recently.

But even then, I didn’t feel like it was enough.

It wasn’t enough to accommodate the Dwarves and their numerous children who had been accepted this time.

“We don’t have to worry too much.”

Semir said so, but Xian couldn’t.

Even so, I couldn’t tell the children to sleep on the ground.

Right then.

Tring!

I heard the cheerful notification sound of my smartphone.

《The territory’s population has exceeded the standard!》

《[Territory Expansion] item is open!》

《From now on, you can expand the territory of the territory!》

《However, you must have control of the lot you want to expand!》

.

.

‘······ territory expansion?’

Apparently, it seemed that the territory of the territory could be expanded.

But what is the price…

[Area 1 Expansion] – 1,000,000 G

It was starting with 1 million gold!

‘sh*t…!’

Xian murmured involuntarily.

And again.

“Besides, there are too many facilities that were broken and damaged in the last battle. The dwarves repaired it, but some said they couldn’t even touch it.”

“ah···.”

It was also true that Nurbia had entered Ruben’s territory.

Battles were also fought inside Leuven.

As a result, many facilities were broken and damaged.

Also, it was because they poured the firepower of 6 Singijeon units.

Fortunately, the dwarves seem to have repaired it.

There were also facilities that only the mobile lord could repair.

So put it simply.

Tring!

《When you get stuck while progressing~♪ Try a string test~♩》

.

.

Riding up to the rhythm, the rising spirit of the mobile lord.

‘Damn it…’

it was sh*t

It was real sh*t!

“ha···.”

Xian let out a deep sigh.

Currently, Xian has 170,000 gold coins.

However, the amount you need to spend right now is roughly several million gold.

How can this guy’s talent never end?

Xian pressed his throbbing temple and said.

“Is that why you came here?”

“It is like that, but…”

Eventually, Hans pulled something out of his arms.

“It’s nothing else, a letter addressed to you, Bocchan.”

“letter?”

Hans nodded and handed the two letters to Xian.

“Did you have 2 copies?”

“That’s right.”

Xian accepted the letter from Hans.

The first caller to do so.

“aria···?”

It was none other than Saint Aria.

He said don’t pretend you know, so why did you even send me a letter?

Xian frowned slightly and confirmed the next caller.

“Why is this so heavy?”

It was very thick for some reason.

It looked like it was filled with wads of paper…

Xian confirmed the sender.

The second sender I so confirmed.

that’s not the same

“Shadow Moon?”

The Shadow Moon Guild that rules the underworld.

It was also a letter from the guild leader, Diana.

#

Dark City, Vener.

Diana wanted to know how to accept this situation.

To be precise, one reply I heard from Diana right now.

“… 3 million gold?”

“That’s right.”

At Diana’s words, Hres nodded.

The other day, Diana sent a letter to Xi’an as a sign of reconciliation.

Along with that, Diana said she would give Cian anything he wanted.

And now.

What he wants is 3 million gold.

“·······”

Diana wondered how to take this.

Usually, when the shadow moon grants you what you want, it usually asks for something other than money.

or information about the client.

Or using the information power of the shadow moon, etc.

I’ve never been asked for any money.

Of course, there was, but he had never asked for 3 million gold like this.

That would be the case, what is the name of the dog for 3 million gold!!

Well… but that wasn’t the amount the shadow moon couldn’t spend.

It’s just a little… no, it’s just suffering from considerable financial difficulties.

“What should I do.”

At Hres’ words, Diana fell into trouble for a moment.

It’s also a serious concern.

But in the end.

“······ will listen.”

Diana could only nod.

Xian Elandur, who is being protected by Durak.

If his relationship with him went wrong, he couldn’t do anything about it even with 3 million gold.

Even though it is the shadow moon that dominates the underworld.

In front of Ellandur, it was just a guild.

Diana sighed.

“And select a few suitable quests.”

“Are you planning on moving yourself?”

“You have to earn money. and hres. Do you think you are an exception?”

“·······”

Hres was speechless.

A moonlit night in Venere.

“······ What kind of trouble is this because you got the wrong request once?”

Diana kept sighing.

#

With a confused feeling, Xian checked the contents of Diana’s letter.

And the 3 million gold slip inside.

“… you really gave it to me?”

Xian went blank for a moment.

I really didn’t know that they would give me 3 million gold.

sinking silence.

between them.

Tring!

《Gee, ge, ge, too much ginseng is not good for mental health!!》

The mobile lord caused an error as if he was embarrassed.
