The Return of the Legendary All-Master

Chapter 128

The reaction on World Com was explosive.

Peak viewers: 43,992.

The scene of the Bone Lord Wyvern hunt that all those viewers had witnessed together.

[What the hell is this? Soloing a raid boss?]

– Is this even real?

(Bone Lord Wyvern hunt video)

Attached the video… I can’t believe it even after seeing it.

└ Who the hell is that?

└ Ah, fuck, the mosaic and voice modulation are annoying

└ Enhancer, swordsman, archer… Is this multiple classes?

└ Is it even possible to have multiple classes?

Technically, there were two people, but from the viewers’ perspective, it was no different from a solo hunt.

Because Honey 3, in their eyes, wasn’t doing anything.

The World Com users started speculating about Honey 1’s identity.

[There is a class that’s theoretically possible!]

– Martial Artist! You know how the Hidden Class Martial Artist recently appeared in Korea for the first time? This smells fishy ㅋㅋㅋ

└ Bullshit ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

└ Martial Artist, my ass ㅋㅋㅋ

└ (Original poster) Why? Am I wrong? There’s a possibility he’s a Hidden Class Martial Artist!

└ The reason this is nonsense is that Honey 1 didn’t use any martial arts-related skills ㅋㅋㅋ

└ He only used archery and swordsmanship, so why a Martial Artist ㅋㅋ

└ You might as well say he’s a Hidden Class Enhancer. That would be more believable ㅋㅋㅋ

Many other speculative posts were rampant, but no one reached the correct answer.

[Let’s just subscribe for now.]

– I don’t think there’s any loss in subscribing

└ You haven’t subscribed yet? Tsk tsk

└ I just did ㅋㅋ

└ I’ll keep watching what he uploads in the future.

And that wasn’t all.

“Why wait for the Pegasus? Let’s just go to the place that sells Flight Potions.”

“But those have severe side effects…”

“So? Are we just going to sit here and wait?”

“Ha, okay.”

Unable to reach the Sky Field through the stable, users flocked to the Alchemist’s Street.

Because they had seen the potion Jeong-Hoon had thrown in the broadcast.

That potion temporarily granted the Flight skill.

If they couldn’t use the Pegasus, they had no choice but to use the potion to reach the Sky Field.

However, they too had to suffer the side effects.

“Argh!”

“Healer! Healer!”

Still, those who reached the Sky Field had formed parties and come prepared with healers.

But even with Purification, there was a queue, and those at the back had to endure the terrible pain for longer.

Anyway, after shaking off the side effects with Purification, they formed parties.

“Judging by the broadcast, it seems like 10 people should be enough?”

“Yeah, it didn’t seem like it had that much HP.”

Seeing how its HP decreased by 1-2% with each arrow, they were convinced that the Bone Lord Wyvern wasn’t a raid boss with high HP.

So they confidently formed a 10-person party and challenged the dungeon.

And soon, they regretted it.

[Remaining HP: 98.11%]

The monster’s HP barely decreased by 2%, even after they poured all their skills into it from the start.

“What the fuck?! Its HP isn’t going down?”

“What’s going on?!”

[The Bone Lord Wyvern uses ‘Breath Release’.]

“Aaaah!”

“Aaaaah!”

And they were instantly killed by the Breath Release skill from the monster.

After that, the number of parties challenging the Bone Lord Wyvern and dying increased rapidly.

* * *

Before users flocked to the Sky Field, Jeong-Hoon returned to the ground with Kim Bong-Goo.

‘Good work. Take this and go rest.’

Special Experience Potions.

A total of five. According to the party members’ contribution, Jeong-Hoon should have taken them all, but he gave one to Kim Bong-Goo for his hard work.

‘Where are you going now, brother?’

‘Why do you care? Are you trying to follow me?’

‘No! I’m going to rest!’

As if afraid that Jeong-Hoon might hold him back, Kim Bong-Goo hurriedly logged out.

“Oh, Hoon! You’re back?”

Upon returning to the royal palace, Ragan, who was training the knights, greeted him warmly.

“Yes. Where’s Ha-Jin?”

“Ah, your friend? He’s diligently training in another training ground.”

There were three training grounds.

Caryan was monopolizing one of them, beating Ha-Jin up.

“I see.”

He had expected it to take a long time, but seeing that Ha-Jin was working hard without giving up, it seemed like he didn’t need to worry about him for now.

“So, are you thinking of setting a date for the banquet?”

The banquet that Kaiserk V had declared.

However, at Jeong-Hoon’s request, the banquet had been temporarily postponed.

Jeong-Hoon shook his head.

“Not yet.”

“Is that so? Do you have something else to do?”

“Yes.”

“Hmm, I can’t help it then.”

Jeong-Hoon was the hero of Märchen.

And Kaiserk V had even said he would actively follow Jeong-Hoon’s opinions, so Ragan readily stepped back.

“Yes. By the way, I heard Verman is here. Where can I find him?”

“Verman? Why are you looking for him?”

“I have a favor to ask him.”

“A favor? Well, I don’t need to know that. Follow me, I’ll guide you to him.”

Ragan handed over the knight training to Gareth, the vice-commander, and led Jeong-Hoon to where Verman was.

====

[NPC Information]

– Nickname: Verman

– Level: 185

– Occupation: Royal Craftsman

====

He was a craftsman working for the royal family.

“Oh, I didn’t expect the Hero of Märchen to visit me.”

Verman stopped his work and greeted Jeong-Hoon politely.

“Yes. I have a favor to ask.”

“A favor? From me?”

“First, take a look at this.”

Jeong-Hoon took out a red stone imbued with a crimson aura.

[Bone Lord Wyvern’s Heart]

– Type: Material

– Grade: Unique

– The condensed heart of the Bone Lord Wyvern.

The Bone Lord Wyvern’s Heart.

It was the power source that had fueled the monster’s rampage.

“This is?!”

Verman’s eyes widened, and he brought out a monocle to examine the heart closely.

‘Ha, thinking back now, I made such a regrettable choice. If I had gone to Verman, a perfect item would have been created.’ Jeong-Hoon thought

In his past life, Sophia hadn’t been able to extract 100% efficiency from the Bone Lord Wyvern’s Heart.

That’s because she had lost nearly 15% of the Bone Lord Wyvern’s power while crafting the item.

If she had succeeded in crafting it while preserving all its power, she could have reached an even higher grade later on.

That’s why he had regretted not going to Verman countless times.

Only Verman knew the method to fully utilize the Bone Lord Wyvern’s Heart.

Unfortunately, Sophia had learned that fact after the crafting was done, causing her great frustration.

That was the reason Jeong-Hoon had come to Verman.

“I obtained this heart by hunting the Bone Lord Wyvern.”

“…This is incredible. I’ve never seen such a perfect Wyvern Heart before.”

Verman brought out a stack of his research journals and explained them one by one.

In short, the Bone Lord Wyvern’s Heart couldn’t be crafted carelessly.

The heart’s interior was intricately woven with mana circuits, requiring extreme caution when handling it, and an even more delicate touch was needed for such a perfect heart.

If even a slight mistake was made, the smoothly flowing mana would instantly scatter, and it would be ruined.

“Can you craft this into an item?”

But Verman shook his head.

“…Not at the moment.”

“Why not?”

“To create an item, I have to manipulate the heart. During the crafting process, I need a device to stabilize the energy so it doesn’t scatter… The problem is that I can’t create that energy stabilizing device right now.”

A question mark blinked above Verman’s head.

[Hidden Quest: Mana Controller]

– Restriction: Possessing the Bone Lord Wyvern’s Heart.

– Reward: ??

– Description: Bring Verman the materials he requests.

Jeong-Hoon immediately accepted the quest.

“Then I just need to bring you the materials to make that device, right?”

“It won’t be easy. It’s because I haven’t been able to complete it due to the lack of those materials.”

“It’s okay. I can get those materials.”

“…Then, may I ask you a favor?”

Verman’s face brightened a little.

He wanted to handle the heart himself, but he knew that proceeding recklessly would only damage it.

To craft this heart into an item, he needed to stabilize its energy to prevent the mana circuit from breaking, and for that, he required a controller that could manage the mana flow.

Unfortunately, the royal family didn’t possess such a controller at present because they lacked a few necessary materials.

“Yes, I’ll try to find them.”

“Hmm… It might be quite difficult to obtain them.”

“It’s alright, please tell me what they are. I’ll do my best to find them.”

“Very well.”

Verman took out a few sheets of paper from the back of a drawer.

They were a list of materials needed to create the controller, specifically those they hadn’t been able to acquire yet.

[Controller Materials]

-Squishy Tears (Not Acquired)

-Unidentified Battery (Not Acquired)

-Celestial Ore (Not Acquired)

There were three materials they needed to find.

“Do we only need to get these three?”

“Yes. The mana controller is currently over 95% complete. With these materials, we should be able to finish it.”

“Understood. I’ll try to find them.”

“Thank you. I, too, would love to handle such a perfect wyvern heart.”

“Yes.”

Ho-Yeong Guild Training Grounds.

Yeo Min-Ji was still practicing her martial arts against a scarecrow dummy.

[Critical Hit!]

She was now accustomed to landing critical hits.

Her success rate had risen to 7.53%.

Out of 100 attempts, she would succeed 7.5 times.

Despite this, her face remained unreadable.

“If only it could go up to 10%, I’d be so happy.”

A motionless scarecrow.

A passive skill that only activated when she struck the same spot on the scarecrow consecutively with near-perfect accuracy.

The conditions for triggering it were incredibly demanding.

Yet, Jeong-Hoon wielded that skill flawlessly.

As if to say that’s what true talent looked like.

[Whisper/Jeong-Hoon -> Minzi: What are you doing?]

At that moment, a whisper from Jeong-Hoon arrived.

Yeo Min-Ji tilted her head in confusion.

“Hmm? A whisper? Did something happen?”

She now understood Jeong-Hoon to some extent.

He never sent whispers without a reason.

[Whisper/Minzi -> Hoon: I’m training. What’s up?]

[Whisper/Hoon -> Minzi: It’s nothing major, but there’s an item I’d like you to find for me.]

As expected.

[Whisper/Minzi -> Hoon: An item? Tell me about it.]

[Whisper/Hoon -> Minzi: An Unidentified Battery.]

“An Unidentified Battery?”

Why would he suddenly need such a useless item?

[Whisper/Minzi -> Jeong-Hoon: Why are you looking for that?]

[Whisper/Jeong-Hoon -> Minzi: I have a use for it.]

Did he have a use for it?

The ‘Unidentified Battery’ was an item with no listed use, so it didn’t even appear in the auction house. It wasn’t required for any quests either, making it essentially worthless.

The drop rate was abysmal, and it was difficult to destroy, so the few players who stumbled upon it during their hunts would curse and shove it into a corner of their inventory. It was truly garbage.

What possible use could he have for such junk?

Her curiosity was piqued, but she decided to find it for him first and then ask questions later.

[Whisper/Minzi -> Jeong-Hoon: When do you need it by?]

[Whisper/Jeong-Hoon -> Minzi: The sooner, the better.]

[Whisper/Minzi -> Jeong-Hoon: Alright.]

It seemed her training session would have to end here.

Yeo Min-Ji tidied up the training area and logged out immediately.

Whoosh

The capsule door opened, and she stepped out.

“Phew.”

She took a moment to catch her breath and drink some water before tapping on her smartphone to access World Com.

The atmosphere on World Com was unusual.

“…What’s this?”

She noticed repeated mentions of HoneyTube and started reading through the posts one by one.

Soon, her face was filled with shock.

“No way…!”
