Ordinary Art Factor [EN]: Chapter 141

I quickly summoned Shuttles, loaded the team leaders, and hurried toward the location where the batteries had disappeared.

Even if you think I’m useless, shouldn’t you at least listen to me when we’re moving?

If you just wander around and die, how am I supposed to recover the Spell Shockwaves I invested in?

After flying at the Shuttle’s maximum speed for a few minutes, I spotted the art team members ahead.

The sight of them practically lying flat on the Wyverns’ backs, gripping the wing bones tightly, looked incredibly dangerous.

What if they fall off while flying like that?

If they don’t have parachutes or some other safety gear, won’t they just die?

Why are they trying to commit suicide before even destroying the Dungeon Multi or the Main Base?

I chased after the suicidal aspirants, constantly questioning their sanity.

Seoul Yeongdeungpo Station, 4-Star Armored Dungeon Clear, 1 hour and 40 minutes after entry.

“Left 11, -7!”

“Roger!”

Three Wyverns rapidly descended from the 11 o’clock direction on the left.

“Right 3, 20!”

“Roger!”

Three more Wyverns soared upwards from the 3 o’clock direction on the right.

Even Psy, who was initially terrified of falling from the Wyvern’s back, was now spreading his arms and moving freely.

Following Chunghwan’s commands, they descended or ascended, maintaining formation, spinning in the air, enjoying the feeling of riding a thrilling roller coaster… Huh? Moonhee fell from the Wyvern’s back.

I was startled and tried to move the Shuttle quickly… Ha!

A Wyvern appeared out of nowhere and caught Moonhee on its back again.

Is this some kind of aerial stunt show?

Is this a circus act?

Alright, fine. I’ll just watch to see if you fall off and die or not.

If you don’t die instantly from the fall, I’ll have Hanteuk spam heals and treat you with the high-grade potions I have.

However, it’ll only be enough to keep you breathing, and if you die before I can even help, that’s on you. Figure it out yourselves.

But honestly, it looks really fun, doesn’t it?

I want to try it later… Ahem.

Seoul Yeongdeungpo Station, 4-Star Armored Dungeon Clear, 2 hours and 30 minutes after entry.

As soon as they located the Armored Dungeon Multi, the art team approached to within 300m and dismounted from the Wyvern roller coaster.

Then, led by Chunghwan’s 400 Hydralisks, Moonhee’s upgraded 500 Speedlings and 100 Hydralisks, and Psy’s 700 Speedlings, they completely devastated the Multi.

There’s no real strategy involved.

Just a full-on charge!

They swarmed the area with Speedlings, attacking all at once, and it only took about 10 minutes to destroy the Multi Nexus.

Dozens of overlapping defense towers and Dungeon Zealots and Dragoons were literally melted away, and the Multi Nexus absorbed the Spell Shockwave on its own.

Is a 4-Star Dungeon too easy for the art team to test?

A 3-Star or 2-Star might be more challenging?

No. There’s still the Main Base left, so let’s observe a bit more.

Seoul Yeongdeungpo Station, 4-Star Armored Dungeon Clear, 6 hours and 50 minutes after entry.

As I summoned Zealots and started mining the Multi Mineral, a reward for clearing the Multi, Chunghwan, Moonhee, and Psy absorbed gas in the back open space.

After all, most Dungeon rewards are things warriors should handle.

Since the art team can’t directly mine minerals, I guess I, who’s spectating, have to mine them.

By the way, if I’m the only one mining minerals like this, won’t it be a problem if only they enter the Dungeon in the future?

Clearing is clearing, but we can’t just leave the Dungeon rewards behind!

Should I enter with dozens of warriors?

That’s rejected because their movement speed in the Dungeon is too slow.

Then should I go in with them?

Definitely rejected!

Um, the best way is for them to mine the minerals themselves… I can’t exactly lend them Zealots… Can I?

No, no. Wait a minute!

Isn’t it a mistake to assume that only Zealots can mine minerals?

Could Zerglings or Hydralisks mine minerals?

Maybe… Huh?

While I was worrying about the Dungeon clear rewards, the art team members walked out of the back open space and got back on the Wyverns… Hey! Hey you!

I haven’t mined all the minerals yet!

Seoul Yeongdeungpo Station, 4-Star Armored Dungeon Clear, 9 hours and 20 minutes after entry.

“Hydralisks, summon all Wyverns!”

“Zerglings, summon all Hydralisks!”

“Summon all Zerglings!”

With a white light, hundreds, thousands of Hydralisks and Speedlings are summoned in front of the Armored Dungeon Main Base, and the team leader-level guild members watching the scene from the Shuttle utter strange exclamations or unintelligible murmurs.

It seems like even more units were summoned than when they destroyed the Multi earlier.

Is it the effect of absorbing gas?

Probably so.

If they have any brains, they’ll be thinking strategically.

Anyway, watching someone else summon so many units like that fills my heart with satisfaction.

Each and every one of them is my spare battery.

Eat well, grow strong, and become excellent batteries for me. Ahem.

Following Chunghwan’s instructions, Speedlings begin to rush in from all directions, followed by Hydralisks.

Dozens of Wyverns ignore the overlapping defense towers and enter the Main Base… focusing fire only on the Caterpillar Tanks.

“That’s right! We need to eliminate the Caterpillar Tanks first!”

‘Kwa-kwang! Kwaaang!’

‘Kieek… Kieeek!’

‘Kureuk… Kureureuk!’

There’s no competing with sheer numbers.

It’s somewhat terrifying to see thousands of upgraded Speedlings rushing in all at once.

Overlapping defense towers? Dozens of Zealots and Dragoons? What’s left of the Caterpillar Tanks?

So what?

The swarms that surround and rush in from all directions devastate the Main Base.

In the middle, dozens of swarms are blown away by the Caterpillar Tanks’ artillery fire, but the Caterpillar Tanks are destroyed by the hundreds of swarms that follow behind, and the overlapping defense towers that relentlessly fire cannons soon collapse.

The Zealots and Dragoons are barely visible, and occasionally the area lightning attacks of the Lightning Shamans shine, but it’s useless.

Similar to the Multi, a huge wave of swarms sweeps through the Main Base, and the Dungeon clear notification rings.

[Ding! You have cleared the Dungeon 4-Star Armored Dungeon. Calculating contribution. 19 minutes 59 seconds, 58 seconds, 57 seconds, 56 seconds…]

“M, my god….”

“Just as I thought.”

“It’s like seeing a smaller version of the Guild Leader!”

“A smaller version of the Guild Leader, my ass! Are 4-Star and 1-Star the same? It’s only like this because it’s 4-Star.”

“Well, I guess we could roughly handle up to 3-Star, but 2-Star or 1-Star is absolutely impossible.”

“Of course. Our Guild Leader wouldn’t be like that.”

What? What wouldn’t I be like?

Don’t just randomly compare me to things like that.

Anyway, I now know that the 4-Star Armored Dungeon is a piece of cake for the art team.

We can proceed with testing with a 3-Star Dungeon, and it seems somewhat clearable.

Still, since we cleared the Dungeon, we need to collect the rewards, right?

As I landed the Shuttle and strode into the Main Base, the team leader-level guys stopped chatting and followed me.

As I moved to the destroyed Main Base Nexus, Chunghwan, with a flushed face, greeted me.

“W, we cleared the 4-Star Armored Dungeon!”

“Yeah. Good job.”

“… Uwaaaa!”

“We did it! We really did it!”

“L, Lord! All of this is thanks to the Lord’s care!”

No sooner had I finished speaking than Chunghwan’s shouts, Moonhee’s excited babbling, and Psy’s nonsense followed.

“It’s not over until we leave the Dungeon. Maintain your composure until the end!”

“Yes. I understand!”

“That’s right, Guild Leader!”

“As expected, you are upright and honorable [Gwangmyeongjeongdae – a Korean idiom for being fair and just], Lord!”

I smacked Psy on the back of the head once and asked Chunghwan.

“We’ve cleared the Dungeon for now. So we need to collect the rewards, but what are we going to do now? Are you going to mine them directly? What if I hadn’t mined the minerals in the Multi?”

“… I ask for your guidance [Jido] and encouragement [Byeontal], Guild Leader.”

After pondering something in silence for a moment, Chunghwan politely bowed his head to me and asked for help.

Yes, that’s how team leaders should be. Of course, you have to act like this for it to be worth feeding, housing, and raising you.

My judgment was right after all.

But are you starting to use idioms too?

You can’t become like Psy… Ahem.

“The Locker is activated, right?”

“Yes. That is correct.”

“How many are there?”

“There are 3 units.”

“Take them out.”

“Yes. Summon all Lockers!”

Three Lockers appeared with a white light.

Their appearance is similar to Hydralisks, but their long, thorny arms are more striking than their sharp snouts.

“Bury the Lockers near the minerals.”

“… Ah~.”

“Do you understand?”

“Yes.”

“I just came up with it, so give it a try.”

“I understand.”

Following my words, Chunghwan’s instructions continued, and the three Lockers moved to where the minerals were embedded, quickly dug into the Dungeon floor, and crawled into the ground. And,

‘Tudeureureuk… Tureuk. Tudeureureureuk.’ [Sound of digging]

“Ha….”

“W, what the heck.”

“Damn it! Then what was all that fuss with the greatswords for!”

Hanteuk and Gilsoo’s complaints from behind are lost on me now.

As expected, my idea was correct.

Every time the long tentacles of the Lockers that dug into the ground near the minerals moved, the mineral chunks shook, and with the repetitive movement of the tentacles, the mineral chunks that were deeply embedded in the Dungeon floor popped up.

I don’t have to summon thousands of Zealots and wrestle with minerals all day with long gauntlets, and the speed is several times faster than before.

Even now, the Lockers in the ground are using their tentacles to bring the mineral chunks buried in the ground to the surface.

‘Deudeureuk… Tureuk. Tudeureureureuk.’ [Sound of digging]

“… Sshee-pah. We just have to pick them up?”

“Now the Guild Leader doesn’t have to summon Zealots.”

“What will the warriors do if this happens?”

“… You idiot! Why are you bringing that up here now!”

“It’s true, you moron. What are you going to do from now on? Play ssesse [Korean slang for ‘doing nothing’] with the Dungeon units?”

“… I don’t know, you son of a bitch!”

Like Hanteuk and Gilsoo’s conversation next to me, if this happens, the warriors will really have less and less to do… Ahem.

“First, collect the minerals and set up the tents.”

“Yes? You’re not leaving even though it’s cleared?”

“I have something to test. Collect the rewards and set up the tents.”

“I understand. Everyone heard that. The mages collect the minerals, and the warriors… Huh? Hahaha, hey Gilsoo! You have something to do. Set up the tents.”

“You idiot! How can I set up the tents alone!”

“I don’t know, you moron! Figure it out!”

“You son of a bitch!”

Gilsoo grumbled and summoned a large tent from his inventory, then shouted, ‘How am I supposed to set this up alone?’

The mages are busy storing the fallen, protruding, and rolling mineral chunks in their inventories, Chunghwan is busy digging the floor with the Lockers, Moonhee and Psy are moving to the back of the destroyed Nexus to absorb gas… The most idle person here right now is… Me?

“Hey, Gilsoo. Do you want some help?”

“… What help… Ah! The Guild Leader is also a warrior! If you have nothing to do, come here quickly. Warriors just have to set up tents, there’s nothing else to it….”

“Do you want to die? Should I have you set up about 100 tents? Huh?”

“Eyy~ I’m just kidding. Just kidding. Anyway, don’t just stand there, grab the end there and fix it… No, you can’t put it there. Make it flat… No, you have to fix it flat! Flat! Don’t you know the meaning of the word flat!”

“… You, you son of a bitch! I’ll make your body flat with the Dungeon floor! Summon all Dark Assassins!”

“Aaaagh! Why? Why are you doing this! We’re the same warriors! Can you do this to each other… Aaaagh! H, hyung [Korean for older brother/respected elder]! No, Guild Leader!”

“It’s too late, you son of a bitch!”

Seoul Yeongdeungpo Station, 4-Star Armored Dungeon Clear, 14 hours and 50 minutes after entry.

After making a clumsy skit with Gilsoo and setting up the tents, we took a short break.

The team leader-level guys didn’t even do anything, but they’re so hungry… I’m hungry too.

Does this stomach have to be constantly fed?

I don’t gain weight, but the amount I eat is almost twice as much as before Awakening.

It must be to maintain the Awakened’s physical stats.

After finishing a simple meal that can’t be called delicious, I called the art team members to the open space behind the gas.

We’ve almost mined all the Dungeon clear reward minerals, but now it’s more important to check something else.

Standing in front of the bewildered art team members, I summoned Zealots.

“Summon all Zealots!”

[Ding! Summoning 1,160 Zealots (Defense+Attack 200%).]

About a thousand Zealots appeared with a white light.

“Chunghwan, Moonhee, Psy, summon all your units.”

“Yes. I understand. Summon all Hydralisks!”

“Yes. Summon all Hydralisks and Zerglings!”

“Yes. Lord! Summon all Zerglings!”

Chunghwan summoned Hydralisks, and Moonhee and Psy also summoned hundreds of Hydralisks and Speedlings each.

“Order the Hydralisks and Zerglings to attack the Zealots. Attack the bio units!”

“Attack Zealots!”

“Attack Zealots!”

‘Kureureureuk… Kureuk.’ [Hydralisk sound]

‘Kieek… Kieek.’ [Zergling sound]

‘Keureureureuk.’ [Hydralisk sound]

Hundreds of Hydralisks and thousands of Speedlings rushed at the thousand Zealots, and the Zealots also swung their long gauntlets against the bio units.

A cloud of dust rose in the open space, and a battle between thousands of bio units and armored units began.

Um, as expected.

Is it prioritizing the commands of the summoned Artifact [referring to the protagonist]?

If so,

“Hydralisk, cease attack! Zergling, cease attack! Hydralisks to the left, Zerglings retreat to the right rear! Zealots, stand by!”

Upon my command, the thousands of Zealots and bio-units halt their battle, split to either side, and await my instructions.

“What? What is this? Why aren’t you listening to me and obeying the Guild Leader’s commands…?”

“Huh… I summoned these units, but they’re listening to the Guild Leader?”

“As expected of you, Lord!”

Bio-units are indeed bio-units.

There’s no difference from the units within the bio dungeon.

In other words, my skill, Sarah’s Blessing [presumably the protagonist’s skill name], the absolute command over bio-units, is working.

If that’s the case, regardless of who summoned them, I can unconditionally command bio-units. I’m not sure if this is a good thing or a bad thing.

Just in case….

After mining all the mineral rewards from the dungeon clear and finishing the tests, I used the shuttle to exit the dungeon.

I didn’t say a word as I moved to the support guild’s Seoul branch in the parking lot’s large bus, showered, changed clothes, and sat on the sofa in the branch manager’s office, Hyung Hongchan’s room.

“Did something happen?”

“…….”

“Hey~ Guild Leader!”

“Huh, huh? Did you call me?”

“You respond to the word ‘Guild Leader,’ huh? Why? Did something happen in the Yeongdeungpo dungeon? You look pale.”

“Nothing happened. The results were better than I initially thought. Once we finish the Taebaeksan Rank 1 and Seoul City Hall Rank 3 dungeon regen clears [re-clearing dungeons to gather resources], find me a Rank 3 mechanized dungeon. I need to run it one more time before going down to Jeju.”

“If it’s better than expected, that’s good. Why do you look like you’re sucking on poop?”

Hmm, should I tell Hyung Hongchan? [Hyung is a Korean term for older brother or a close older male friend]

Well, it’s a question without a definite answer anyway, so let’s at least ask. No, what I’m thinking is a bit absurd.

“Hyung. No matter how I think about it….”

“Yeah, go on.”

Hyung Hongchan, who had been leaning back on the sofa, leans forward towards me.

“… You know. After thinking about it carefully, don’t you think I’m a ridiculously overpowered character? Could it be that I’m a chimera created somewhere else, or a bio-unit from within a dungeon? A humanoid bio-unit under mind control or something else that I’m not even aware of.”

“…….”

“No, think about it. Even if I’m a mage-class Artifact, there should be a limit to the units I can summon, but there isn’t. And even aside from that, I can command other Artifact team members’ bio-units….”

“…….”

While I’m rambling on, Hyung Hongchan stares at me seriously.

“Ah! Seriously, why! I’m being serious here!”

“… Are you finally crazy? Why don’t you join Psy and go to the hospital?”

“What are you talking about! I’m serious! Hyung, think about it too! It’s not like I’m some super-ultra-ultimate boss from a fantasy novel. This doesn’t make sense, does it? Except for mechanized dungeon units, I’m completely invincible!”

“Haa… Okay, let’s say you’re invincible. But why exclude mechanized dungeon units?”

“Huh?”

“You called yourself a super-ultra-ultimate boss, right? Invincible, right? But why are you excluding mechanized dungeon units? Does an invincible character pick and choose what they deal with? That doesn’t make sense, does it? If that’s the case, you should be able to solo any dungeon, regardless of type. Right?”

“…….”

That’s true?

I strongly agree with that.

That’s right. If I were that kind of being, that kind of character, why wouldn’t I have absolute command over mechanized dungeon units….

*Thwack!*

“Agh! Why! Whyyy!”

I was seriously contemplating my existence, and Hyung Hongchan hits me in the back of the head.

“Get a grip, Guild Leader!”

“Huh?”

“Whenever you have useless thoughts, remember this pain… No, did that even hurt? It didn’t, did it? Right? Come here. I’ll give you another full swing.”

“No, it hurt. I won’t do it again. I said I won’t! Ugh… How dare the Vice Guild Leader treat the Guild Leader like this… Hey, Mister. Stop, I said stop!”

Hyung Hongchan grabs me until the end and delivers a super-powerful ultra-full swing smash to my back, not the back of my head.

The sound of rocks breaking echoes from my back, and I feel a tingling pain.

Was I having some really pointless thoughts?

A punishment for that?

But even though my back is stinging, I feel a warm blood… Huh? Warm blood?

How am I feeling that?

Am I really human? Right?

Two weeks later.

The Taebaeksan Rank 1 bio dungeon regen clear and the Seoul City Hall Rank 3 bio dungeon regen clear were completed safely, without any incidents, and without a single casualty.

And by focusing Spell Shockwave [a skill that enhances stats] on the Artifact team members, Chunghwan reached the early stages of Awakened Rank 3, Moonhee reached the late stages of Rank 4, and Psy also reached the early stages of Rank 4 in terms of stats.

However, my stats haven’t increased even by a single level since the Osaka Rank 1 bio dungeon.

Why aren’t my stats increasing even after getting hit by Spell Shockwave?

Someone’s stats are skyrocketing, but mine are stagnant.

Am I going to be overtaken by them like this?

Like extra batteries connected in parallel and series, removing the main battery….

“Haa….”

As I let out a long sigh, Hyung Hongchan next to me looks at me.

“Why? Is your back itchy? Want me to give you a smack?”

“… It’s not that.”

“Then?”

“It’s because I’m not leveling up. I haven’t gone up even one level since Japan.”

“… How much is your level?”

“Calculating warrior or mage stats is different from Artifacts. You can’t compare them like that.”

“Still, tell me. How much is it?”

“Level 99.”

“… Re, really?”

“Yeah. But my stats are still in the 13,800s. Just like an Awakened Rank 1. It’s not increasing from here.”

Hyung Hongchan, who had been staring blankly at me for a moment, clears his throat and speaks.

“You really are an overpowered character. Level 99, huh? Hmm… Could it be something like this?”

“Like what? Do you know something?”

“It’s like in games. The higher the level, the harder it is to raise a rank. Could it be something like that for you too? Or maybe there’s a special condition to reach exactly level 100. Like a hidden piece? A hidden quest? Something like that?”

“… Mister! Is reality a game? What’s with the special conditions and hidden quests….”

Ah, no. Wait a minute!

So far, including Japan, France, Switzerland, and Korea, I’ve been hit by Spell Shockwave from Rank 1 bio dungeons more than four times, and I’ve been exposed to more than enough mana from lower-ranked dungeons.

Despite that, my level remains the same.

If that’s the case, as Hyung Hongchan said, could there be some kind of condition?

If the dungeon mana that Psy mentioned is constant, then the fact that some people level up and others don’t is a system error.

Hmm, that’s a pretty plausible assumption….

If that’s the case, what is the hidden leveling condition?

If there are secondary or tertiary job advancements like in games, shouldn’t they tell me the conditions for them?

Am I just supposed to act like this and stumble upon it?

Or should I just destroy everything? Will that work?

Tell me!

You damn unfriendly Awakened system!

The next day.

I entered the Oksu Station Rank 3 mechanized dungeon regen clear, which Hyung Hongchan had booked in advance, with the team leader-level guild members and Artifact team members, just like last time.

And then came the Wyvern summoning and the roller coaster ride.

I quickly produced a shuttle and followed behind, watching the Artifact team play.

Eating popcorn and drinking cola from the inventory with ample storage space.

I don’t know if something like that will happen, but just don’t die.

Then, I’ll diligently watch the movie here.

Alright, it’s starting now.

Everyone, take your seats!

I can’t see the movie well because it’s blocked by your heads!

After a while.

After a long, exciting, spectacular, and suspenseful SF movie ended, an announcement rings instead of the ending credits.

[Ding! Cleared Rank 3 mechanized dungeon. Calculating contribution. 19 minutes 59 seconds, 58 seconds, 57 seconds, 56 seconds…]

“Huff, huff… Gu, Guild Leader! We, we cleared the Rank 3 mechanized dungeon!”

“Yeah. Good job. I give it 3.5 stars.”

“Pardon?”

“Haa, haa. That was really tough. But I feel relieved because the Guild Leader is here….”

Spell Shockwave ends at the destroyed dungeon nexus, and I was about to brief Chunghwan and Moonhee on the Rank 3 dungeon clear and the movie viewing, but Psy, who was standing there blankly and stupidly, says something nonsensical that I don’t understand.

“Lo, Lord! I, I got a skill!”

“… What nonsense are you spouting!”

Artifacts don’t have skills… Well, they do. Because I have one too.

So, you’re saying that you, Psy, have a skill? Is that the nonsense you’re spouting?

But everyone here knows that your physical stats are terrible, and you couldn’t even summon bio-units of one type when clearing the dungeon, so there’s no way you could have a skill?

Except for the fact that you’re good at enchantment and you’re focusing all your stats on it, there’s no reason for you to have a skill… Focusing? Enchantment?

Su, surely. A skill related to enchantment?

“Psy! Get over here!”

At my shout, Psy hurriedly runs towards me, panting.

You son of a bitch, you goddamn bastard!

If it’s an unnecessary, useless, strange skill, I’m going to take back all the mana I’ve invested so far!

“Recite it.”

“Huff, huff… Yes?”

“What you said earlier! You said you got a skill?”

“Ah, yes. Since my enchantment stat is over 1,000, I got the Multiple Duplication Magic Circle!”

“Multiple Duplication Magic Circle? What’s that?”

“It says it’s a magic circle that allows for simultaneous duplication in proportion to the mana invested in the skill effect.”

“In one go? Multiple duplication?”

“Yes!”

“Without drawing a magic circuit on a mineral plate?”

“Yes! Lord!”

“Huh….”

What is this supposed to mean!

So, without a mineral plate, without a magic circuit, in one go, all at once, and even multiple items can be duplicated?

Am I understanding this correctly?

I was so dumbfounded that I just stood still, and Chunghwan next to me asks instead.

“Byeongchan, so what the Guild Leader is saying is that without drawing a magic circuit on a mineral plate, you can duplicate multiple items as long as you have a certain amount of mana…”

“Yes. That’s right. The mana input varies depending on the item, but as long as you have at least 500 mana, you can use the skill.”

“… Does it say that in the skill conditions? At least 500 mana?”

“Yes.”

“How much is 500 mana….”

I heard Chunghwan muttering next to me and gathered the others.

“Everyone, come here!”

After all, the Artifact team members, including me, are all Artifacts.

We can summon units based on the amount of stats of the summon target, not the amount of mana, so I need to ask the mages who use mana… Huh?

Was the stats of the summon target the amount of mana?

It’s been the same as the stats every time I measured the Awakened rank… Hmm, let’s check first.

The team leader-level guild members, who had been glancing at us from around, surround the Artifact team and bombard us with questions.

“Is it true? An item duplication skill?”

“There’s even a skill like that? Seriously….”

“There are over 200 Awakened classes alone. The number of species that come with it is countless. Do you think you know every skill in the world….”

“Quiet! Hanteuk!”

“Yes. Guild Leader.”

“How much is 500 mana?”

“Yes?”

“How much is 500 mana for you!”

“Ah, yes. I’m in the late stages of Awakened Rank 4, and my mana is 2,544, so I’d pass out if I used the skill 5 times?”

“Have you ever done that before?”

“… You know, there has to be a situation where I need to use a healing skill while clearing a dungeon.”

“Use it.”

“Yes?”

“Use the skill 5 times. Let’s see what happens.”

“… I’m telling you, I’ll pass out!”

“Okay. If you pass out, we’ll take you away nicely. Use it.”

“…….”

After a while.

Hanteuk is passed out and twitching on one side, and Gilsoo is kicking Hanteuk’s back.

Jihye, Mihye, Choi Eunji, and Kim Eunhee also unleashed their skills once each and told me the amount of mana consumed.

Of course, it’s difficult to accurately measure the mana depending on the Awakened rank, stats, and skill level, but one thing was certain.

The stats of the summon target that the Artifact has is the amount of mana for them.

If that’s the case, since my stats are in the 13,800s, if I pour mana into Psy, he can use it about 27 times?

I’m not going to pour mana until he passes out, so let’s say about 20 times, and if it’s a special item, I can make quite a few and absorb it… Ah, no. Cool time!

“Time?”

“Yes?”

“Cool time, skill reuse time!”

“Ah, yes. There isn’t any.”

“None? There’s no cool time?”

“Yes!”

“Then, if the mana is full, can you duplicate items to the max?”

“… I guess so?”

“Hmm… Okay. Next time a rare item comes in, we’ll duplicate it no matter what. Keep that in mind.”

“Yes. Lord!”

This guy’s broth is getting thicker as time goes on [meaning he’s becoming more audacious or confident].

At first, his awkward speech and crazy actions made me wonder if geniuses originally acted like that, but now he’s getting recognized by the guild members.

Furthermore, he has the boldness to focus all his stats on one trait, enchantment.

Ah, no. I told him to do that, and he just did it without asking anything!
