Episode 271
: Back to Fate World!
It is currently morning time on the Eastern Continent.
X opened his eyes.
“It’s dark.”
But the vision was as black and dark as night. It was because of the question mark field created by another being. When I looked around, my companions welcomed X.
Dallas smiled and spoke.
“Seeing as you were later than usual, I guess you had a good rest?”
“Yes, I had a good night’s sleep for the first time in a while.”
A whopping 12 hours!
X, who strictly adheres to bedtime, slept twice as long as usual.
Naturally, it was due to the aftereffects of training in hell. Dallas, who couldn’t figure out that fact, added playfully.
“You deserve it. “He single-handedly saved the Eastern Continent.”
Savior of the Eastern Continent!
As the savior of the continent, X has accomplished an incredible feat. It was natural for a savior to be treated appropriately.
Has a rumor already spread? The people who returned to their home bowed their heads to X.
“Oh our hero.”
“I will never forget grace. Noblemen of the Western Region.”
Sioras laughed.
“Thanks to you, the day will come when I will be called a noble person.”
Huge influence!
X’s influence was also affecting how his colleagues treated him. Priest of the West Region. Even Dallas, who would have been ostracized under normal circumstances, received a polite greeting.
X raised the corner of his mouth with a grin.
“Everyone needs to be nice to me from now on, right?”
Life is about giving and receiving.
Since you did something good, you should receive something in return. That time when X spoke in a forced manner.
Hwa Ryu-hyeon and Hwa Eun-su approached X. They bowed their heads politely to X.
“I don’t know how to repay this favor.”
“Thank you, X. “Thank you so much.”
Even if you are proud, you have to choose the right time and place. Besides, there were many eyes around.
X quickly shook his head and responded.
“it’s okay. “It was what I should have done.”
Afterwards, X talked with the two royal family members about the collapsed imperial palace. As you can see, most of the capital, including the imperial palace, is engulfed in darkness.
Hwaryuhyeon seemed to have already made a decision.
“So I decided to move the capital. “In the new capital, we plan to write the history of the new Hua Empire.”
Nod.
Hwa Eun-soo, who exchanged glances with Hwaryu-hyeon, continued speaking.
“Not in the direction planned by those behind it, but in the direction we intended. “There may be a lot of shortcomings, but I will never give up.”
Nod.
X, who was listening, expressed his honest feelings.
“You are truly amazing.”
The capital and the imperial palace were devastated in just a few days!
If Xernis had become like this, X wouldn’t have been able to maintain his senses.
How much gold has been invested so far? I probably wouldn’t be able to sleep for a week due to the enormous loss I had to endure...
‘I’m not a member of the royal family for nothing.’
The two were already thinking about rebuilding the Fire Empire. The emperor’s dishes certainly seemed different. Soon, Hwaryuhyeon handed me something with his chubby hands.
“What is this?”
“This is the first letter written in the newly beginning Fire Empire.”
“But why are you doing this to me?”
Hwaryuhyeon’s plump cheeks twitched.
“That’s because it is a letter sent to you.”
A letter?
If you have something to say, you can do it face to face. I was skeptical, but it was worth checking on this spot.
When I untied the string and opened the letter, I saw letters similar to Chinese characters. X had no choice but to hesitate.
‘Hmm, how do I read this?’
X naturally seeks knowledge from the Great Sage! The quick-witted Sioras spoke on his behalf.
It’s great.
Let’s summarize the main point.
“...I, Hwaryu County, pay homage to the savior of the Eastern Continent and the lord of Xernis, the great nation of the Western Region. Our Hua Empire will never forget and forever remember your sacrifice and help. This letter will serve as proof of that.”
Oh my.
‘It was a letter with this content.’
X had quite a few conversations with Hwaryuhyeon.
To gather information, we talked about the continent of Arba, and naturally, talk about Xernis came up.
Anyway, I will eat well. X swallowed his saliva and then checked the item.
‘It’s a heavenly hot spring, so it must have infinitely good effects, right? A ring that can briefly make it rain however you want? This is a total scam, right? It seems that the Heavenly Stone can be made with equipment...’
There were also buff rewards that were not items, such as the Milky Way’s Blessing or the Halo of Favor. X didn’t forget to open the status window to check the effect.
‘Wherever you stand, there will be no end of shooting stars. Luck increases significantly. When you communicate with heaven, does a halo shine behind you? Wait, I think this might be a little off-putting...?’
The Milky Way’s blessing and increased luck were good. However, it was natural that the effect of the halo of favor was burdensome.
Who gave this embarrassing compensation? It was something I knew without having to think about it.
[The God of Clowns is curious about your halo!]
[The God of Clowns is delighted to see you covered in a strong halo!]
Flash, shine!
A halo glows behind X, threatening to communicate with heaven!
Murmur.
The people around them whispered.
“It is indeed the light of a great hero.”
It wasn’t really efficient at all, but the God of Clowns gave us a lot.
X held back and checked the rewards. Items with truly unique effects could not be left out.
X’s eyebrows twitched.
“...Do you think this could be useful?”
The Mangeun Chain that completely restrains the enemy’s movements!
It’s unfortunate that it’s a consumption item with a limited number of uses, but it’s a legendary item.
It seemed like I couldn’t be free from its effects unless I was someone else.
“Bubugeumseul is the best...?”
The elaborate wood-carved mandarin duck certainly seemed like a godsend to the family. There were so many rewards that it was impossible to point them out one by one, but as befits heavenly rewards, they all had extraordinary effects.
Among them, what caught X’s attention more than anything else was the equipment that could be used immediately.
-Titan’s Mace (Legendary)
A mace used by the primordial giant Titan. The size has been reduced to fit the user.
Limit: Level 800↑ Strength 20000↑
Attack Power: +4500
Strength: +800
Dexterity: -300
Special Effect: When worn with a shield, the hit rate of attacks increases by 50%.
However, when worn as a two-handed weapon, the power of the mace increases by 300%.
The mace followed by the Titan’s arrow!
The limitations and abilities were unusual for the legendary level. A whopping level limit of 800. As if that wasn’t enough, they ask for 20,000 worth of strength.
X let out a sinister laugh.
‘Ordinary users won’t be able to wear it even if they use special refining.’
But X was not an ordinary user.
Current level is 783!
Not only was there not much left to reach the required level, but the power easily exceeded 50,000.
If you hunt hard for a few days, there is no need for special smelting, unlike with the Titan’s Arrow.
‘Plus, it has effects that suit me well.’
spear and sword.
Spears, daggers, etc.
X, who is equipped with different weapons in each hand, will be able to properly utilize the 300 percent increase in power.
The Ring of the Sun was an accessory that doubled the power of all fire attribute magic.
“If you combine it with the wings of the phoenix...”
It would be truly incredible.
Although the intelligence requirement was close to 10,000, X’s intelligence exceeded 20,000 a long time ago.
X wore the Sun Ring without difficulty and smiled with satisfaction.
“It was a really happy settlement.”
I only checked the rewards, but it feels like time has passed. However, X did not close the inventory.
Now that you have completed the happy settlement, you should not postpone the unpleasant settlement.
X shrugged his shoulders.
“Well, do you think I’ll be able to see that face again?”
Fragments of a collapsed world dropped by other beings. X reached out for them.
Soon the fantasy began.
*
‘...what?’
Fortunately, the main character appeared from the beginning of the fantasy.
Slam!
Of course, the face of the man who loaded the silver crossbow at countless undead...
“I’ve seen it so many times that now I can tell just by looking at his eyebrows.”
He was the king of gourmet food.
Munchkin that I eat all by myself
