Episode 52: Blaga’s Gift (2)
Following Park Tae-sik, we arrived at his personal workshop.
It was already my second visit, but the scenery of the studio has not changed much from the first.
Tools were scattered all over the place, and all kinds of equipment were hanging on the walls. Each one was so great that even calling it a top product would not be enough.
“It’s a great place to see at any time.”
“There is no need to speak empty words. Rather, the equipment you will see… … .”
At that time, the hammers leaning next to the desk crumbled. Park Tae-sik scratched his head as if it was annoying.
“Eh, wait a minute. I will be tidying up.”
While Park Tae-sik was cleaning up the hammer, Kwon-ul looked around the equipment in the workshop.
“huh?”
Suddenly, Kwon-wool’s gaze stopped. A mannequin without a head was placed where the gaze was directed.
Gwon-ul looked at the mannequin. To be precise, I looked at the clothes the mannequin was wearing.
The mannequin was wearing a black suit. The suit made in a classic style was, at first glance, a great luxury item.
The collar of the jacket was wide, and the line from the shoulder to the arm was angled. A red tie nestled in the middle of a white shirt revealed a strong presence.
Because it was a three-button style, the waist was tight. It seemed to be difficult to wear unless one was quite confident in their body shape.
“and… … .”
Kwon Kwon-wool was stunned for a moment and looked at the suit. I myself couldn’t understand why.
Of all the equipment in the workshop, the attention was drawn to the suit.
“I think this is the first time Kwon Han-ul has been interested in suits.”
“Oh, did you?”
“Did you hate it when I told you that you had to wear a suit when you went out before your debut?”
“That was because it was uncomfortable.”
Kwon-wool averted his gaze as if he were embarrassed. Even so, he continued to glance at the suit.
“Ah, it’s over. Anyway, there is no end to cleaning this guy.”
Park Tae-shik brushed his hands and approached Kwon-ul. Kwon-wool pointed to the suit and asked.
“Looks like you’ve been wearing suits lately. But aren’t you sizing up too small?”
“What kind of nonsense is this guy all of a sudden? Why am I wearing that?”
“Then what is it?”
Gwonwool pointed to the suit and asked. Suddenly Park Tae-sik burst into laughter.
“What did you say? Man, that’s not mine, it’s yours!”
“You mean you ordered a suit for me?”
“Ah, why can’t you understand what I’m talking about! That’s the armor sent by the Blaga family!”
At that, Gwon-ul looked at the suit again. The brow furrowed on its own.
“Are you kidding me?”
“Do I look like someone who has nothing to do?”
“No, then how can a suit be armor?”
“Well, it’s such a rare item that I don’t know about it. But if Ha-yeon were you, would she recognize you?”
Joo Ha-yeon also tilted her head. As soon as I noticed, my eyes widened.
“… … Could it be that it was the work of the Alchemist Weaver Heinkel?”
“Yes, I saw it correctly.”
Park Tae-sik nodded and said.
“Weaver Heinkel’s handmade No.34 Blackberry. Upon checking, I was surprised to find that it was made with the blood of dragon hatchlings.”
Kwon Kwon-wool and Joo Ha-yeon couldn’t help but be surprised by those words.
Originally, there are five grades that divide dungeons and monsters.
Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond.
However, there are countless types of monsters. And among them, there were monsters that were beyond imagination, in other words dangerous enough to be out of standard.
Hunters treated monsters other than common sense by attaching a separate grade of S-class to them.
In the case of Eclipse, which was previously killed by Kwon Chan-sung, it was called the SSS level of danger because it threatened the entire African continent.
And in the case of dragon hatchling, the risk is S-class. It was a powerful monster that sometimes went up to SS class.
“Are you saying it’s really made with dragon hatchling blood?”
Gwon-ul had no choice but to ask again.
Compared to the risk of dragon hatchling, the value of the by-product is very high.
Many of the world’s famous weapons were made from the skin and bones of dragon hatchlings.
“Your eyes are changing. After all, dragon hatchlings are the best among dragon monsters.”
Why do you think hetzling is the best and not the adult?
The reason is that there have only been two instances of adult dragons appearing in human history.
After that, only dragon hatchlings appeared for decades. At this point, dragon hatchlings are the best dragon monsters.
“The jacket was made from the blood of a dragatchling, and the shirt was made from processed bones.”
It was a composition in which the whole dragon hatchling was replaced.
However, there was one thing I didn’t understand.
“How do you make clothes out of blood and bones?”
A dragon hatchling’s blood is liquid, and its bones are solid. No matter how much I thought about it, it was not a material that could be made of cloth.
“Weaver Heinkel was proficient in the magic of processing materials. That’s why it was called the Alchemy Wizard. It would have been easy for him to process blood and bones into fabric.”
So he seemed to say that Joo Ha-yeon would be able to recognize her.
Joo Ha-yeon is also a witch who uses magic.
“What kind of ability do you have?”
“Once you put it on the automatic repair function… … eh it was Check it out for yourself later.”
Park Tae-sik said with a wormy face. Gwon-ul asked cautiously.
“You don’t seem to like this outfit?”
“That’s natural. That’s what this outfit is. This is the height of inefficiency! Some madman takes a dragon hatchling and makes armor like this!”
Complaints erupted as if they had been waiting.
“I was so obsessed with the appearance that I couldn’t bring out the perfect performance of the material! If I were given the same ingredients, I could make something even greater! Twice as good as this one!”
It never seemed to end. Kwon Kwon-ul took the opportunity to intervene.
“So you’re saying the performance isn’t great?”
“… … That’s not it.”
Park Tae-sik’s voice softened slightly.
“Performance… … It’s okay to write… … No, to be honest, you won’t find anything like this anywhere in the world.”
On Park Tae-shik’s face, there was a sign of acknowledging that he really hated it.
“It’s just cut, so it’s too much for you now. It’s something world rankers can wear without any problems.”
“How much should I pay to buy it?”
“To buy Weaver Heinkel’s work with money. What a stupid idea. His works are more valuable as collectibles than equipment. Even if you give billions of dollars, you won’t be able to save it.”
Park Tae-sik added while tying the sleeve of his Blackberry.
“To be willing to give away something like this. Even for Catalina and Blaga, it would not have been an easy decision. I’m not sure, but at least one pillar of the Blaga family must have been pulled out.”
Kwon Wol remembered Catalina Blaga’s words.
They said it was good to look forward to it, but they sent a really great item.
“Would you like to try it on?”
From noble mtl dot com.
Gwon-ul nodded as if possessed by something.
“There is no changing room, so change behind the pillar over there.”
Gwon-ul took the mannequin and headed behind the pillar.
I took off the clothes I was wearing and started putting on my blackberry. However, a minor problem arose.
“… … mmm.”
Because I wasn’t used to wearing a suit, I couldn’t save the clothes.
When the mannequin was wearing it, it was really great. When Kwon Kwon-wool wore it, it was crumpled here and there.
“Well, performance is important… … .”
“What is performance important?”
I was surprised and turned my head to see Joo Ha-yeon standing there. While Gwon-wool was surprised, Joo Ha-yeon began to straighten her clothes.
“Don’t do this, it’s okay… … .”
“What’s okay is okay. As a blood relative of the Dark Heaven, it is difficult to save face if you do not wear a suit properly.”
Come to think of it, the formal attire of Heukcheon was like a suit.
Kwon-wool had no choice but to entrust himself to Joo Ha-yeon’s hands.
Things that didn’t work out that way when she did it, changed completely after going through Joo Ha-yeon’s hands.
“Why aren’t you wearing a tie?”
“It’s a bit difficult… … .”
Joo Ha-yeon sighed and tied a knot with her own tie.
After putting on his tie, Gwon-wool came out of the pillar.
“Are you guys dating here?”
When the two came out, Park Tae-sik said curtly.
“The witch in the dark sky waits on men. Those who would be surprised to know this would cross a truck.”
“Don’t talk nonsense.”
“Ugh, now even rebel against me… … oh yes i get it okay.”
When Joo Ha-yeon stared at her silently, Park Tae-shik took a step back.
“Heh, but I think I’m a bit fancy wearing it.”
For Park Tae-sik, who was stingy with praise, this was a generous evaluation. It fit so well.
“Okay, how do you feel?”
Even when Park Tae-shik asked, Kwon-wool did not answer. Because that was an impossible situation.

blackberry set effect
1. Automatic repair: Automatically repairs damage to equipment.
2. Protection Reinforcement: Durability and defense power increase by 100%.
3. Dragon Fear: You can emit Dragon Fear by consuming magic.
“Isn’t that great?”
Park Tae-sik opened his mouth. Gwon-ul only nodded blankly.
“The functions of each part are great, but the set effect is particularly noteworthy. Reinforcing protection in automatic repair. Even if you are a world ranker, it will be difficult to scratch that armor.”
But that wasn’t what was really great.
“Above all, Dragon Fear… … I have no choice but to admit this. How did you implement Dragon Fear?”
Dragon Fear could be said to be the world’s best wide-area skill.
Just the release can terrify or injure enemies.
Enemies exposed to Dragon Fear also receive various debuffs. Allies, on the other hand, receive a buff.
“Since you have black dragon blood, it will be even better with that outfit.”
Dragons and dragons are separate monsters. However, there were many aspects that worked because they were classified as the same polyp.
For Gwon-ul, this outfit is the best equipment, but on the contrary, Kwon-wool is also the best owner for this outfit.
“Hey, do you like it?”
Park Tae-shik asked bluntly.
Even though he knew he had to say no at a time like this, Gwon-ul had no choice but to answer like this.
“It’s awesome.”
Suddenly, Kwon-wool realized that Joo Ha-yeon was making a dissatisfied expression somewhere.
“Hayeon?”
“… … I feel bad because I feel like I lost my player to her.”
Suddenly, Joo Ha-yeon said to Park Tae-shik.
“Commander. The Black River set doesn’t have a weapon for a guru, right?”
“uh? Uh, yes, but.”
Joo Ha-yeon opened a sub-space. From there, he took out something that looked like elephant ivory and a large piece of leather.
Master Park Tae-shik immediately recognized what it was.
“Aren’t they the fangs and leather of a dragon hatchling? How do you have something so valuable?”
“I once caught a dragon hatchling while following the chairman. That’s what I got then. Originally, I was thinking of making Kwon Wool-nim’s armor with this… … .”
Joo Ha-yeon presented those two items to Master Park Tae-shik.
“I already have the armor, so please make gloves for Kwon Kwon-ul to use.”
“… … Did you use all of this?”
Park Tae-sik’s pupils widened as if they would fall out.
Among the basic skills of item makers, there is material compression.
In simple terms, it is to compress a large amount of material to enhance its function.
It was clear that a great product would come out if the glove was made using all these materials.
“Instead, it must always be better than that.”
Joo Ha-yeon said as she glared at the Black River set. Even Master Park Tae-sik swallowed dry saliva at the strange pressure.
“Yeah, I’ll do my best.”
