<Sealed Eight Trigrams>
classification
-Others/decorations
Explanation
-It is sealed.
– Cannot be used until the chain is released.
-There is something inside.
“You must have felt like this explanation, right?”
Descriptions of items that appeared in the main story of the novel and several times longer set-up collections.
The vivid memories were enough to replace the main character’s item window.
‘I can use the quest window just fine, but I don’t know why I can’t use the item window.’
well- well-
Shake the palgwaero lightly. Along with the clanking of chains, there was the sound of small marbles rolling around inside.
“It sounds brilliant.”
It was to the point that I wanted to open it right away and take out the elixir.
There were no fittings, let alone locks, on the taut chains.
Suddenly, a faint dragon pattern engraved on the surface of the chain caught my eye.
Bagua is also known as Bagua, but this chain is also an artifact with great power.
<Kowloon God of Fire>
classification
-Others/Bopae
Explanation
-Old, old chains with non-existent fittings.
-Has been neglected for a long time and has lost most of its power.
– It cannot be broken with any force.
Once again, I recalled the contents of the setting book in my head.
An artifact with a rare sealing ability that only rarely appears in novels.
‘In the novel, the main character said he would break the seal, but it was destroyed because he broke it by force.’
Destroying an artifact itself is nonsense.
Did you say it’s like smashing a huge aircraft carrier with your bare hands?
‘The main character did that difficult thing.’
It was added that it was possible because it had been neglected for a long time and had lost most of its power.
Of course, this is impossible on my own.
There is also a way to ask someone who can… .
‘Balguaro, Guryong Mythology, Elixir inside the Palgwaro. I can’t throw away even one.’
I’ve picked out things, but I still have plenty of time left.
I passed the miscellaneous junk area and stepped into the jewelry area.
‘Are there still people left?’
In the jewelry area, there was one passenger who seemed to be still picking out items.
A small body with a head and a half.
The faint scent of herbs and the smell of blood hidden underneath.
Brown bob cut hair.
‘Han So-yul.’
Although he is one of the main characters, he was also a character whose actions were not revealed in the novel.
Right after the main character’s transfer, he was on the side with a lot of appearances, but at some point, his appearances decreased.
In the end, at the time of the third year, only the afterword was told that he had decided to drop out and left the hero academy he had been doing.
‘I thought it would reappear later or be a foreshadowing of something. Even after entering the 4th grade, he didn’t mention it once, so he naturally left.’
She was lost in thought, with a bright red ring and a silver bracelet with a hanging chain resting on her hand.
Of course, both were things I knew.
‘Broken Silver Bracelet’ and ‘Bell’s Ring’. It’s not an artifact, but it’s a good choice among trinkets.’
The description of the item that appeared in the setting book came into my mind, but it was not important.
I approached Han So-yul and said hello.
“hi.”
“It’s a surprise!”
I didn’t mean to surprise you.
He seemed so lost in his thoughts that he did not notice my approach.
Otherwise, it might simply be because Hanzo’s popularity is weak.
“The name… Hanzo right? Sorry if I’m wrong, I can’t remember the person’s name.”
“Right, Hanzo.”
“thank god. I haven’t memorized all the names yet. Oh, my name is… .”
“I know. Han So-yul.”
“Ah, you know.”
“Are you thinking between the two?”
“Yes.”
I feel that my approach is not very welcome from the shaky answer.
I know how difficult it can be to give a favor to someone you’ve never seen before.
There are exceptions such as white glass, but… It really is an exception among exceptions.
“Wait a minute.”
Neither of the things she was thinking about were artifacts, but things with quite powerful magic.
If you’re lucky, they might be able to grow into artifacts by accumulating tales.
But, like Ben Gibralur, neither is the best option for her.
“What are you going to do?”
Instead of answering, I passed her and searched the display case behind her.
Han So-yul is also a major character in the novel.
Although she left midway, her potential was quite outstanding.
‘He was also a person whose other abilities stood out more than his combat ability.’
genius alchemist.
Han So-yul was born with a natural talent for alchemy.
Even now, she must be hiding flasks of colorful reagents in her bosom.
-The location is at the bottom of the 4th shelf. It is slightly longer than two fingers, and is wrapped with an old, worn-out leather strap.
It didn’t take long to find it because its location and appearance were described in detail in the novel.
Han So-yul’s gaze watching my actions from behind was a bit burdensome, but I could bear this much.
“Okay, take it.”
I handed the found item to Han So-yul as if tossing it.
She reflexively caught the thrown object with both hands.
“necklace?”
The emotion reflected in her eyes is half doubt, half curiosity.
Han So-yul carefully observed the necklace I handed her.
Then I realized something, and my eyes widened in surprise.
“What do you think?”
Han So-yul glanced at my face.
“Why this… .”
Her words didn’t follow through.
Suspicious glances towards me.
It was quite nice to see her holding the necklace with both hands as if it were her own.
I’m not the main character, and I don’t do anything stupid to give or take away.
“Looks like you liked it.”
“how… no.”
She swallowed the question she was about to ask and evaded it.
It’s not hard to guess what question he wanted to ask.
So I need to implicitly reveal that it was me who recommended the item for no reason.
“Do you like rumors or ghost stories?”
“No, not really.”
“I like that. like an urban legend. They say there are old rumors that have been passed down like ghost stories in a few heroic academies.”
Actually, I don’t like ghost stories.
However, this way of embellishment might arouse her curiosity more.
The important thing is to make up a story as plausible as possible so that the other person thinks that it can happen.
“Among all the ghost stories, have you ever heard of a hidden space somewhere in this school that no one knows about?”
“no.”
“In that space called the secret library, or the library of fairies, there are all existing books from all times and places.”
“… … .”
All of a sudden, her words went down.
“Where did you hear that rumor?”
“I don’t know. Did you read it by chance while surfing the web? Have you heard from graduates? I can’t remember until then.”
“that… not. If you can remember where you heard it, let me know.”
“Okay, if you remember.”
Han So-yul left the treasure chest holding the necklace tightly in his hand.
I guess it will take some time to get to know her.
“It’s hard to get a sense of distance.”
Even so, Han So-yul has a suspicious and cautious personality.
I’m not sure how to interpret this.
Rather than having a good image of me, there is a high probability of being suspicious.
‘It’s better than not having any interest.’
With that thought in mind, we headed to the last weapon area.
There was also no one in the weapons area.
While I was looking around to simply check what was there and what was not, and then leave.
[@$@#%@%@#!]
A sound like radio noise disturbed my ears.
Naturally, the brow furrowed.
‘Ugh… what is this sound?’
A sound echoes in your head.
It’s to the point where my head starts to get a little dizzy from the intrusive noise.
‘Where is that sound coming from?’
I tried rubbing my temples with one hand and listening to the noise, but to no avail.
[@#@$$%*&$#%%$!!]
It was so quiet I couldn’t tell what he was saying or where it was coming from.
I was curious about this, but it wasn’t important right away, so I came out of the treasure chest.
The faint headache immediately disappeared as the sound ceased to be heard.
“Everything is out.”
As Principal Kim Chul said, I was the last one again this time.
It would have been nice if the admissions grade was the last, so it wouldn’t stand out.
“Where, shall we see what we picked out?”
“Here it is.”
I held out the sealed palgwaro I had brought from the treasure chest to Principal Kim Cheol.
It’s a thing that feels like a long history at best, and looks messy and ugly at worst.
I brushed off the dust roughly, but I didn’t clean it properly, so it might feel more like that.
“Hmm, are you really going to be okay with that?”
Principal Kim Cheol looked carefully and asked.
I don’t know if you know the value of this thing, but at least in its current state, you seem to know that it’s just a decoration.
“yes.”
“Can I give you one more chance now?”
“it’s okay.”
“If you say that, I have nothing to say.”
Considering Principal Kim Cheol’s view of education that respects students’ autonomy, I’ve been asked several times since I stopped.
And just like in the novel, they acknowledged this as ‘one thing’.
“Then we are all gathered. Let’s proceed with the orientation immediately.”
“Do we start right here? principal?”
It was Ben Gibraltar who asked that question.
He was holding a small blue box in one hand.
It seems that he chose the inner edge of the frost giant as I recommended.
“It doesn’t matter where you start. Orientation will be held throughout the military academy.”
“The whole military academy?”
“Now, come and take one.”
Principal Kim Cheol held out a piece of stiff paper the size of the palm of his hand.
It was the map of the Hero Academy.
“Orientation, ‘Stamp Tour’ begins.”
A stamp tour refers to the act of collecting stamps while traveling around a specific place.
Five empty circles were drawn in the corners of the map.
The stamp seems to be received here.
“Other students started first. you… .”
Principal Chul Kim checked the time on the terminal on his wrist.
“That’s about 15 minutes later than the other 93 students.”
It is a handicap given to students with excellent grades in admissions, but it does not mean much.
It is true that it is advantageous to start early, but that is a handicap established under the premise that everyone can collect stamps.
“I don’t know how many will remain by now.”
“no way.”
“Yes, I prepared a hindrance. Seniors in the second year are looking for your freshmen.”
During this period of growth, a year is a big difference.
One-on-one, a fair number of first-year freshmen won’t be able to defeat a sophomore.
The six top performers here are an exception, but this is a one-on-one story.
If several 2nd year seniors rush at the same time, no matter how many of them there are, they won’t be able to stop struggling.
“The time limit is until noon. Do you have enough time?”
Considering that he had to go around the huge site of the Hee-on Military Academy, and avoid being disturbed by his sophomores, it wasn’t a lot of time.
“We have prepared a special gift for the first person who collects all 5 stamps, so look forward to it. ha ha ha.”
He flashed a cheerful smile.
As for the special gift, I am also looking forward to it.
‘I came prepared for him.’
I put the map in my inner pocket and checked the items I had prepared in advance.
“Then let’s begin!”
match!
With applause, Principal Chul Kim announced the start of the orientation.
