-[Point Blood] has been released!
– Wake up!
I woke up with a system notification.
Waves of tree branches swaying in the night wind below. The stars scattered across the blackened sky came into view first, and I felt the touch of a cold, hard rock from my back.
‘It’s outside.’
I expected. Even a preschooler can guess that Jeokcheongang wouldn’t have put me on a soft down bed.
Well, it’s also a normal body no matter where you lay it.
‘But why is my body so heavy?’
Is it because I’ve been pushing my body too hard lately?
No matter what the system is, it seems that I was also a human after all.
Perhaps because of the forced march over the past 15 days, my body felt heavy as if I was hanging on to an iron ball… … .
Iron gruck.
“uh?”
iron?
I turned my head in the direction of the sound. The handcuffs and the iron ball connected by the chain caught my eyes tightly on both hands and ankles.
“… … It’s a real iron ball.”
what is this
The accident stopped for a few seconds. Who am I and where am I?
And why are these things crammed into my limbs?
The answer came quickly. It was an easier problem, like work plus work.
”Fire King!”
It was at that moment when he let out a thunderous cry.
f*ck!
“evil!”
“Have you seen a guy who ate such cheap rice?”
The Jeokcheongang, which hit the back of my head with a stone, was approaching with a leisurely step.
“How dare you call out a nickname called Safety? Is the old lady your friend?”
I, who had been rolling over the rocks in pain, jumped up.
straight up
“What is this!”
“that? iron ball.”
“I didn’t ask because I didn’t know.”
“Then why would someone who knows everything ask?”
“……!”
“It is something that will become your limbs in the future.
It is a training tool that has been handed down from generation to generation, so treat it like you would treat a child.”
No, he is a bachelor who has never been in a relationship, let alone married.
I pulled the chain connected to the iron ball with a dumbfounded face.
Charrrrrr.
You can feel the heavy weight with the sound of metal scratching.
It was so heavy that even a decent number of first-class soldiers could not stand still.
“Is this a training tool passed down from generation to generation?”
“Didn’t the old lady just tell you?”
“How much does it weigh?”
“I’m leaving soon. About two hundred pounds?”
“Oh, of course, not all together, but two hundred pounds each.”
Two hundred pounds is equivalent to a weight of 120 kg even by modern standards.
With such a heinous object stuffed on both limbs, how heavy is that???… .
‘About 500kg. It’s 0.5t.’
I thought deeply and opened my mouth.
“Have you ever become senile?”
“… … There’s nothing he can’t say.”
I was prepared to get hit, but for some reason, Jeokcheongang’s reaction was just that.
He looked at me for a moment with a complicated expression before continuing.
“Anyway, I will be wearing that iron ball from now on. Not only during training, but also when sleeping and eating.”
“hmm.”
“This is all part of training.”
“Really?”
“If you don’t believe me, quit. It doesn’t go far.”
Without hesitation, he turned around and hurriedly called out Jeokcheongang.
“Now, wait a minute!”
“why? You say you don’t want to?”
“No, I haven’t answered yet, so what if you leave like that?”
“So what is the answer?”
“that… … “
Damn, this is a huge internal conflict.

However, when the absurdity I felt when I first saw the iron ball disappeared, my heart calmed down.
‘There’s nothing I can’t do.’
I have come this far after overcoming the risk of dying dozens of times.
The world is not going smoothly. Rewards are given only when the corresponding price is paid. Both in Murim and in modern times.
Everyone, not just me, is living through endless quests.
and… … .
‘If I was going to go back like this, I wouldn’t have come this far.’
Considering the fruits to be harvested later, this is a bargain.
After finishing my thoughts, I met Jeokcheongang’s gaze.
“Something to do, let’s do it.”
“Can not hear clearly.”
“I do!”
“Ha ha ha! good night!”
A smile spread across the corner of the crinkled mouth.
Like a grumpy old man. He acted like he didn’t want to, but I knew deep down that he wanted me too.
“Then what do we do now?”
“You want to start right away?”
“They say to remove the horns as well, but if you’re going to do it, it’s better to go right away.”
“You have a pretty bold side. But before that, food comes first.”
“yes? Suddenly?”
“Did you have to starve for training? No matter what, you have to feel good in order to do great things.”
Jeokcheongang took out from his bosom and accepted the thrown object.
Under the faint moonlight, when the damp hanji was peeled off, Byeokgokdan with a reddish tinge was revealed.
“I’d rather give you beef jerky.”
“Don’t complain, eat it. It’s not an ordinary Byeokgokdan, it’s because it was made with the technique of Yeolhwamun’s vision.”
“What effect does it have?”
“Excellent in every way, but… … “
“I feel really bloated inside when I eat this.
“Especially good for virility.”
“Wow, just looking at it makes my mouth water.”
“thank you for this food!”
If you have good energy, you should eat. Even if there is no place to use it right now, you must eat it unconditionally.
Thinking of the future, I chewed and swallowed the Byeokgokdan.
Jeokcheongang, who was staring blankly at the scene, asked.
“Did you eat it all?”
“Yes, Noah.”
“What, can’t you feel anything?”
“Well, it seems that the sperm count has increased a bit… … At my answer, Jeokcheongang murmured, furrowing his brow.
“Strange. Has it been made for so long that the potency has lost its effectiveness?”
“yes?”
what the hell do you mean by that
It was that moment when I was confused.

-You have taken the [Fire King’s Special Golden Altar].
– The feeling of fullness rises!
-[Agility] is down by 100!
-[Strength] is down by 100!
-[Stamina] is reduced by 100!
-[Spirit] can’t be used!
– The effect lasts for a week!
“… … uh?”
It happened without any warning. As soon as the system notification popped up, my arms and legs lost strength and my breathing shortened.
Finally, the gong energy that flowed through the veins of the whole body went down to the danteon, and soon it became impossible to move as if it was tied to something.
Ugh!”
cooong!
As soon as the strength was lost, the body that was somehow supporting the weight of the iron ball drooped.
My knees buckled at the weight of 0.5 tons that momentarily weighed down my entire body.
“What, what is this!”
“Whoops. The drug is finally working.”
I gaped my mouth as I watched Jeokcheongang let out a sullen laugh.
“What the hell have you done, you crazy old man!”
“what? Are you a crazy old man?”
“omg. No, that’s not it.”
“Let’s see… … The first training would be good as expected.”
As soon as he finished speaking, his wrinkled palm stretched out towards me.
At the same time, he felt a huge flow of energy, and the wind that was blowing fiercely changed direction and whirled around him.
And a stream of realization crossed my mind.
‘Is there a cliff down here?’
I hurriedly looked behind me. The view from the bottom of the rock is breathtaking.
If you fall here with such a ruthless iron ball… … .
“Now, wait a minute!”
“Wait what? They say it’s better to remove the ox horns with sweet seaweed?”
“that… … “
“late.”
Faaaaang!
Compressed air burst out of Jeokcheongang’s palm. The strong wind that uprooted even rocks and trees turned into a giant’s fist and struck me.
Even hundreds of kilograms of iron balls were useless in front of that powerful wind.
Perbung
‘Ah, Shiva.’
In the next moment, I was thrown into the air with a feeling of emptiness under my feet.
Jeokcheongang entered, waving his hand with a big smile at the overturned vision.
“It’s time to come back. Any delay is a failure.”

– The quest [Fire King’s Infernal Training-1] has been created!
– You cannot refuse the quest!
“It’s like shit… … !”
Before I could finish my words, gravity pressed down on my whole body.
Falling at the speed of light, there was only one thing I could say.
“Aaaaaaagh!”
Screams of terror shook the dark Jiuhua Mountain.
with a plop-
Jeokcheongang laughed at the sound of water echoing from under the far-off cliff.
Because it suddenly brought back memories of my youth.
‘Master! Help me!’
count to three let go three.’
‘please! If you fall from here, the disciple will die!’
‘field ,
‘omg! I am the master!’
‘one.’
His master was relentless. To the point where you want to be harsh on a child who has not yet lost their downy hair.
However, without such harsh teachings, neither Yeolhwamun nor the Hwawang Jeokcheongang would have existed.
As I received… … No, I’ll roll it a little harder.’
I don’t know Jin Tae-kyung, but Jeok Chun-gang knows.
that they don’t have much time.
If you teach them step by step, it will be too late.
Such was the celestial spirit that Guengdao had predicted, and the current state of the Jeokcheongang was like that.
‘Hold on until then. Even the old man will do his best.’
Jeokcheongang, who had been gazing at the bottom of the mountain with deep eyes for a while, suddenly muttered.
“… … I shouldn’t have filled the iron ball.”
It was Jeokcheongang who never thought that he would use an object to prohibit the sinner of the Samantha in this case.
“Huh. Whoops!”
That’s right. ugh
With each step, the ground that had just begun to thaw submerged, and a deep ditch was created where it passed.
But it’s already familiar. I continued to climb the steep mountain road sweating.
“Hoo-wook, whoo-wook.”

– Extreme training! Endless hard work never betrays you!
-[Strength], [Stamina], and [Agility] increased by 1!
– [Muscular Bone] and [Muscular Vein] increased by 2!
Being soaked in drizzle, the current increase in stats helped a lot, even if it was a small amount.
‘If it wasn’t for this dog-like iron ball, if it wasn’t for the f*cking golden altar!’
Without either of them, the quest would have been completed long ago.
However, the most important power was banned, and the physical ability decreased by 100, and the enormous weight was added, so there was no ability to withstand it.
The time limit for the climax of the fire dragon was only the first time.
‘Sibeol Jiuhua Mountain is not a mountain behind the neighborhood.’
I even thought about cutting off the chain connected to the iron ball in the middle if it was too difficult.
Until I found out that the chain lasts for 10,000 years
‘To use this on a chain, are they crazy?’
In the end, I had no choice but to endure with evil.
One day, two days, three days, four days… … And finally, ten days later today.

– The quest [Fire King’s Hellfire Training-1] has been completed!
– A significant amount of experience gained!
– Level up!
– Earned 30 bonus points!
With about a corner left until the time limit, we were finally able to reach the summit.
coo-!
“Yaaaaa!”
He hurled the heavy iron ball to the ground and let out a shout that rose deep into his lungs.
At the sound, Jeokcheongang, who had been dozing off the rock, was startled and woke up.
”Muh, what’s going on!” Damn old man. Unmanned people save time to sleep, and the human who said something sleeps while I suffer to die?
I gritted my teeth and approached him.
“Can’t you see? Climb Jiuhua Mountain in one hour. Success!”
“Yes? Why are you climbing Jiuhua Mountain?”
“yes?”
Jeokcheongang, who had been blinking his eyes, hurriedly shook his head.
“Oh, no. It’s quite the way.”
“And what?”
“I think we can move on to the next step now. I have prepared it, so take care of it.”
He turned his head to where his fingers were pointing.
Leaning against a large rock, it was a vest. An incredibly large and thick cast-iron vest, my fingertips trembled before I knew it.
“… … Is this, by any chance, what I think?”
“What were you thinking?”
“Wearing this and repeating the same actions you’ve been doing now.”
“One guy, even kidding.”
“Yes? Wow, that was really cool.”
“haha. You guys had a cute idea.”
Jeokcheongang, who had a good laugh like a neighborhood grandfather, continued.
“If you have done one, then you have to do more than two. Now that I think about it, Han Si-jin was too generous.”
”yes?”
“Give it half time. Hurry up and put it on and go.”
“……!”
