The Return of the Legendary All-Master

Chapter 93

Earth Korea Management Team.

Manager Oh Jin-Soo and the staff were staring at the monitor screen, speechless.

Although he felt sorry for Yeo Sunwoo, the bug city that the user had opened the other day…

Since they had discovered the bug, they had a reason to monitor the user.

But what was this?

He explosively leveled up in the bug city and then headed to the Märchen Kingdom.

And as if that wasn’t enough, he completed the temple quest and opened the Golden Temple.

“Was the Golden Temple originally supposed to be opened…?”

“I don’t know either… But is it okay for us to keep watching this?”

“We’re watching closely because of the bug before, so it’s not voyeurism, right? Right?”

The staff looked at Oh Jin-Soo.

Oh Jin-Soo stared at the monitor with a hardened face.

‘This can’t be… The Golden Temple is absolutely not supposed to be opened.’

The Golden Temple.

The treasure trove of the Märchen Kingdom’s temple.

They only knew it existed, but there was no record of it ever being opened.

And yet, the Golden Temple was being opened right now.

“Manager! What do we do?!”

“There’s no contact from headquarters! Maybe headquarters prepared this as an opportunity too!”

“Shh! Quiet! They’re going in now!”

At Oh Jin-Soo’s words, everyone became silent.

* * *

The Golden Temple opened.

The inside of the temple was blocked by a wall, and two portals were shimmering side by side in front of it.

“Where do you want to go?”

Jeong-Hoon asked Ha-Jin.

“We have to choose too? Ha, I’m going to get choice paralysis at this rate.”

“Then I’ll decide first.”

Jeong-Hoon chose the portal on the left.

Naturally, Ha-Jin headed towards the portal on the right.

[Moving to the Golden Temple.]

[You have discovered an unknown area.]

[You have acquired 10,000 achievement points.]

With that message, his vision went dark.

When it brightened again, he was in a warehouse.

[What? It’s empty? The outside was so glamorous, why is it like this in here?]

As Mukho said, unlike the outwardly splendid Golden Temple, the inside was rather plain.

But looking at the items placed on the table, his thoughts changed.

[Great Psyche’s Greatsword (Partially Sealed)]

[Great Psyche’s Helmet (Partially Sealed)]

[Great Psyche’s Armor (Partially Sealed)]

[Great Psyche’s Spike Boots (Partially Sealed)]

Various weapons and armor sets for warriors, archers, thieves, mages, gunslingers, and more.

Even though they were partially sealed, their grade was Unique, and their stats far exceeded those of existing Unique equipment.

[Level Up Potion (+30)]

Also, a potion that increased your level by a whopping 30 at once…

[All Stats Increase Potion (+30)]

All Stats Increase Potion.

Even a potion that increased all stats.

To think that such rare items were gathered in the Märchen Kingdom…

‘How great would it be if I could take them all?’

They were all items he coveted.

If he could choose 2 or 3, he wouldn’t have to worry this much.

But Jeong-Hoon could only choose one.

So he had to choose carefully.

‘I can’t use any tricks either.’

He wondered if he could summon Michael, just in case.

But summoning Michael inside the Golden Temple was impossible.

[Time remaining: 7 minutes 23 seconds]

There were only 7 minutes left.

Jeong-Hoon slowly examined the items on the table.

[Just pick a weapon.]

Mukho suggested in a bored voice.

Indeed, as Mukho said, choosing a weapon was the best option.

‘Armor is good, but weapons are more efficient.’

Since he had Mukho, there was honestly nothing he coveted in terms of armor.

But Jeong-Hoon had no intention of choosing a weapon.

He moved to another table.

[Psyche’s Recognition]

Psyche’s Recognition.

This was a title.

If you obtained this title, once a day, regardless of your physical condition, you would be healed to 50% HP.

Moreover, you would become invincible for 1.5 seconds after being healed.

It was a title that would be quite useful even for low-level users, but its power shined even more as the level increased.

Nevertheless, Jeong-Hoon didn’t choose the title.

Or rather, he couldn’t choose it.

‘As expected, it was here.’

Jeong-Hoon looked at the item with trembling eyes.

[Completed Mark of Divinity]

– Type: Material

– Grade: Unique

– It is a complete Mark of Divinity.

The Completed Mark of Divinity.

It was the item Jeong-Hoon had planned to obtain as soon as he arrived in the Märchen Kingdom, but he hadn’t expected it to actually be here.

‘This is the Mark of Divinity I received as a reward. I didn’t expect it to be a material for crafting weapons.’

Before returning, Jeong-Hoon had almost completed the Overlord Titan.

In the process, he hadn’t had all the marks himself.

He was missing a few, and his companions had them.

So they had tried to create the Overlord Titan by joining forces.

But not anymore.

He had to reach the Overlord Titan with his own strength.

‘Choosing this mark is not an option, it’s a necessity.’

Jeong-Hoon reached out for the mark.

Then a hurried voice echoed in his head.

[Hey! Take your hand off right now!]

Mukho’s words made Jeong-Hoon hesitate for a moment.

“Why?”

[Wow… Can you be any more stupid?]

Mukho sighed deeply, as if exasperated. Jeong-Hoon nodded understandingly and said,

“I know what you mean, but I have to take this.”

[No, why? Why?! Why would you eat hard rye bread when you have meat dishes right next to you?]

“Why are you bringing up food?”

[Wow, I’ve never seen someone who can’t tell the difference between gold and poop.]

Jeong-Hoon barely held back his laughter.

Perhaps from Mukho’s perspective, this did look like poop.

But considering its future value, the Mark of Divinity surpassed everything else.

This quest was the only way to obtain it.

Now that Jeong-Hoon had undertaken the hidden quest, even that was gone, so if he didn’t choose it here, it would become an item he could never obtain again.

On the other hand, the other items would be replaced by superior items as he leveled up.

“Anyway, I’m going with this.”

[Don’t eat the poop!]

Mukho continued to chatter, but Jeong-Hoon ignored it and picked up the mark.

[You have acquired the ‘Completed Mark of Divinity’.]

Done.

With this, he had acquired a total of 3 Completed Marks.

Then the rest of the items were enveloped in light and disappeared.

[Returning to the entrance.]

* * *

Whoosh-

The capsule door opened and Jeong-Hoon came out.

‘Phew.’

Was it because he had also completed the quest in the Märchen Kingdom?

His body felt a bit sluggish.

Jeong-Hoon lay down on his bed and took a nap for about an hour before going out to meet Ha-Jin.

“Hoon, you look really tired.”

“Really? I just woke up from a nap.”

“Dude, it’s weird that you’d recover after sleeping a little when you’ve been pushed that hard.”

“That’s true.”

Jeong-Hoon’s body was no different from an ordinary person’s because New World and Earth hadn’t synchronized yet.

More importantly, the reason they met today was because of the video.

“Want to see the video?”

Ha-Jin had transferred the video to his smartphone.

It was an unedited video.

The video was only filmed up until they received the hidden quest.

“It’s not bad.”

“But it’s a bit disappointing…”

“Why?”

“The Golden Temple, which they said had never been opened before, was opened. Imagine if you had filmed the inside. It would have been a huge hit.”

“Ah, it doesn’t matter. My goal isn’t to get attention, but to provide a way to grow.”

“That’s true.”

3 levels up from one quest.

“So what did you choose?”

Jeong-Hoon and Ha-Jin couldn’t have a proper conversation as soon as they came out because of the NPCs.

‘What the hell was in the Golden Temple?!’

‘Please have a drink with me and tell me about it!’

‘Oh! Psyche! Please let me spend a night with this man!’

‘Hey! It’s not right to make comments that could be misunderstood between men! I just want to have a conversation! Just a conversation!’

‘Yeah, just a conversation!’

‘Don’t worry! We’re very good at social distancing!’

Despite the saintess’s attempts to stop them, their eyes were firmly fixated, making it difficult.

In the end, Jeong-Hoon and Ha-Jin were only able to log out after dealing with them.

“Hehe! Don’t be surprised. I chose the Psyche Armor!”

Psyche Armor.

It was a Unique grade armor, so it would be quite useful until level 300.

“Really? You didn’t level up?”

“Why would I need to level up when I’m with you… Huh? Don’t tell me you chose the level up?”

Ha-Jin’s face turned pale.

Fortunately, Jeong-Hoon shook his head.

“Am I crazy? Why would I choose to level up there?”

“I knew it.”

Ha-Jin’s face brightened rapidly.

“Anyway, this should be good enough, right?”

“Then shall we send it to Dae-Hwi right away?”

“Yeah. Please.”

From creating the channel to uploading the video.

Jeong-Hoon intended to hand over everything to Ha-Jin to manage.

‘It’s beneficial in many ways to have Ha-Jin manage it.’

The purpose of creating the channel was to narrow the gap between worlds.

Korea entered New World several months later than other countries.

As a result, their growth was delayed, and they were at a disadvantage in many ways.

So when the synchronization with Earth happened, Korea was automatically at the bottom.

It would be difficult for now, but Jeong-Hoon intended to slowly change that.

“Okay! Then let’s go grab some food. It’s on me today!”

Thanks to Jeong-Hoon, he had leveled up and obtained Unique grade armor.

It was a day to celebrate, so he had to treat him to meat!

Well, beef was a bit too much, so pork it was.

But Jeong-Hoon shook his head.

“Ah, sorry about that. I have another appointment after this.”

“An appointment? With who?”

“With the Ho-Yeong Guild Leader.”

* * *

[Han-Beom: Ha… I’ll upload this video as it is. Thanks for your hard work.]

[Me: Okay.]

That annoying bastard.

It was finally over.

He had taken care of him so diligently, but it ended so absurdly that he felt empty rather than angry.

“Wow, it’s the first time I’ve seen you so relaxed.”

Lee Hak-Song approached with a friendly smile, holding two iced coffees.

“Yeah. I should have changed him sooner if I knew it would be like this.”

Jang Dae-Hwi chuckled and took the iced coffee.

Whirr-

At that moment, his smartphone on the table vibrated.

“What? I thought you were going to relax, but I guess not.”

“It’s not that. My younger brother asked me to edit a video for him. He just sent it.”

“Edit?”

“Yeah. It’s a New World video.”

“Oh.”

Lee Hak-Song showed interest.

Everyone here was an editor managing New World YouTubers.

Whether it was due to their professionalism or not, they were intrigued by the mention of a New World video.

“Should I ask if we can watch it?”

“Yes! Call him quickly!”

“Wait a minute.”

Jang Dae-Hwi called Jang Ha-Jin and asked if he could show the video to his colleague.

The answer was a yes.

So the video Ha-Jin sent was displayed on Jang Dae-Hwi’s monitor.

“It’s Märchen Kingdom?”

Märchen Kingdom.

It was a village that could be entered from level 151, and it was a very ordinary village used by many users.

“It’s mosaic-processed.”

Like with smart lenses, the two users in the video captured by the camera were also mosaic-processed and unrecognizable.

One must be Ha-Jin, and the other one his friend?

Anyway, the place they were headed to was the Psyche Temple.

“Of all places, why the Psyche Temple…”

Lee Hak-Song clicked his tongue already.

Psyche Temple.

Also known as the ‘entrance unlock quest’.

It was too inefficient to do the quest just to get that.

‘…Ha, should I just turn it off?’

If it wasn’t a video sent by his brother, he would have turned it off a long time ago.

Jang Dae-Hwi continued to watch the video patiently.

And soon after, his pupils trembled madly.

“B-Bro!”

The same was true for Lee Hak-Song.
