Episode 42. Something I’ve never done before
The building contract was concluded quickly.
“The building owner wants to move quickly. The truth is that the building has been undervalued in many ways because of the rumors of it being haunted.”
But that doesn’t mean you can sell it cheap.
Dojun was very proactive in buying the building that had been a headache in many ways.
“They also lowered the price a lot. I don’t think the old boss might suddenly change his mind!”
“thank you.”
“Thank you. I made a mistake the other day.”
‘It was a haunted workshop, but it was the perfect workshop for the money I had at the time.’
If we look closely, we can see that it was something that met Do-jun’s conditions in some way.
‘He’s definitely a talented person.’
Not long after, the building owner arrived at the property.
“hello!”
The old man smiled at Dojun.
“Sign the contract right now!”
As the broker said, the contract was quickly processed in case Do-jun changed his mind.
“Sir, as you know, this building has had quite a few problems, right? You’re willing to take all of that on yourself and buy it. That negotiation······.”
“Hmm. No matter what, this is······.”
“If not now, I might not be able to sell it. The old manager over there understands everything and is buying it.”
The building was still a headache for the building owner.
Because of the haunted workshop, tenants kept moving out, and the second floor was also left empty, so it was a loss in many ways to keep it.
So it was better to sell it when I could.
Of course, the building owner didn’t know.
That the ghost of the workshop will never come out again.
‘Even a broker can’t say that ghosts won’t appear in his lifetime.’
Only Dojun knows.
There are no ghosts in the workshop anymore.
‘If I knew that I had tamed that ghost and that it had already become a mid-level spirit, I wouldn’t be selling it for so cheap.’
“Okay, I’ll do that.”
In the end, the building owner lowered the price by 2 billion won from the original market price.
It seemed like he thought he would never sell it if not now.
“Well done, boss!”
The broker was definitely skilled. He was able to cut me this much money in an instant.
Dojun completed the contract right away.
“Thank you!”
The building owner said with a big smile.
“It was a good deal.”
It was a really good deal.
***
Do-jun, who had finished signing the building contract, now stood in front of the workshop that would become his own building.
“It’s a small two-story building, but it has a lot of land.”
Although it is a two-story building, the land share is good, so if we tear it down and build anew, it seems like we can create a more reliable workshop in many ways.
“It would be perfect if I built a four-story building, using the first and second floors as my workshop, and the third and fourth floors for other purposes. The bigger the workshop, the better.”
But if that happens, the workshop will have to rest for a while.
“If it goes too well, it’s a problem.”
In some ways, it was a bit funny.
It’s been a while since I’ve run the workshop, and it’s already taken a break.
“Normally, people who suddenly become famous like this would suddenly lose. They would be forgotten so quickly.”
But Dojun was confident.
Just because you’re taking a break from the workshop doesn’t mean you’re stopping production itself.
The day it reopens, it will be able to bring in people like clouds again.
‘If you make it well, it will come eventually.’
“It will make you want it even more.”
Dojun knew for sure.
KS Net had a much greater impact than Dojun had imagined.
“KS Net’s personal channel is definitely effective.”
Videos of people testing out equipment at the Tower of Flame continued to gain views.
The comments were all positive and the number of channel subscribers was also increasing significantly.
“It’s already been 2 million times.”
The video of catching the Lizardman King got the most views, but the comments there were all just saying it was ridiculous.
“Actually, it’s ridiculous.”
It’s ridiculous that the Awakened Craftsman is soloing the Tower of Flame, but he even managed to defeat the Lizardman King all by himself.
‘This just proves how good the equipment is.’
So the number of views is bound to soar.
Besides, there is no competition.
‘Now that I’ve confirmed that this has a decent number of views, I think other creators in the Awakening industry can follow suit.’
However, A-class Awakeners whose skills have improved to the level of Dojun are generally joined to a guild.
‘You won’t have time for a personal channel because you’re busy dealing with the guild’s workload.’

And those who play for free have a workshop.
‘I won’t be able to go to the dungeon and check the equipment directly because of the workshop work.’
Dojun is stabbing it accurately in the middle.
So, for a while there was no alternative.
‘Once I become more influential, then there will be people who jump in.’
“Let’s close the workshop for now. Before that, let’s just make the items that will be commissioned and delivered to the wings.”
Once the plan was decided, Dojun started making the items to be delivered to the wings.
– Make equipment!
The items requested by the Wing Guild were quite difficult to make.
However, the more difficult the conditions were, the more motivated Dojun was, so the revision work was very enjoyable.
‘I feel like the more I make, the more skilled I become.’
Currently, Dojun was using Mir’s power like mana.
“Having some mana means you can do things you couldn’t do before because you didn’t have any.”
What is Dojun’s ability?
“Grant lower level options.”
The reason Dojun was able to survive for so long by only using low-level option grants was because he needed mana to start using mid-level option grants.
However, if you have the power to replace this mana, you can upgrade your skill by granting intermediate options.
Dojun looked at his hands.
Only 10 years for granting lower level options.
There was a period of 10 years where I wanted to move on to granting intermediate options but was unable to do so.
“Let’s try upgrading.”
***
Dojun visited the scroll shop he had visited before.
“Oh my! You’re back again!”
The owner welcomed Dojun with open arms.
“What are you looking for? I will serve you properly!”
“I want to purchase a skill upgrade scroll.”
“!”
The owner knew about the myth of low-level emotions that Do-jun had shown a while ago.
“What skill do you want to learn?”
“It’s a lower-level option grant.”
The owner quickly went inside and brought out a scroll.
“The option granting series is generally easy to upgrade. You can use it right away without my assistance, so feel free to take it and use it!”
The shop owner was quite disappointed. Dojun could have shown something great again, but as he said, the option granting series did not need any assistance.
Dojun, who had purchased the scroll, returned to the workshop.
-You can upgrade your skills!
-Please select the skill you want to upgrade.
– Upgrades the granting of lower-level options.
Shaaaaak-!
A whirlwind of wind swept through Dojun.
It’s a low-level option that’s been around for a long time.
‘It wasn’t just a skill to me.’
It’s hope.
At the same time, it was despair.
– Skills have been upgraded!
– Grant lower level options >> Grant intermediate level options
The long-standing low-level option granting has finally been upgraded to a mid-level option granting.
Unlike the lower-level emotions, unfortunately the upper-level options were not granted, but now that the intermediate options were granted, it was now quick to move on to the upper-level options.
“after.”
– Grants intermediate options [B]
Dojun took a deep breath as he looked at the intermediate option granting skill of B grade.
“Thank you.”
This is the end of the sentimental time.
Dojun quickly got absorbed in his work.
– Make equipment!
– Make equipment!
Clang-! Clang-! Clang-!
Dojun, who had quickly piled up the items to be delivered to the Wing Guild, entered into complete concentration.
As I was making the equipment, I had a thought in my head about fighting the Lizardman King.
When I swung my sword.
When blocking an attack with armor.
The movement he took.
The trajectory of the sword.
There were various experiences about how it would have been better to use it if it were a weapon other than a sword.
“I think I can make this faster than I thought.”
Kyaang-!
As I continued to make them based on my experience, the custom-made wing pieces that were once difficult to make became easy to make.
“The equipment has already been paid for in full and quality has been negotiated.”
I had no intention of using the intermediate option grant here.
I was thinking of using the intermediate option granting from now on.
“The wing quantity is roughly enough.”
Dojun took out new materials.
“I received the materials from the Wing Guild.”
The contract with the Wing Guild was worth 5 billion.
But Dojun did not receive all 5 billion in cash.
‘The Wings Guild is a guild that goes on a lot of raids.’
In fact, the scale of the Aram Guild was incomparably different.
That’s why things like the Draco Claws that were secretly taken from the Aram Guild don’t exist in the Wing Guild in the first place.
Such small materials do not go into the guild’s warehouse.
That’s why Dojun received the materials in cash plus money.
“The grade is A. But each of these costs almost 500 million.”
What Dojun took out was a blue mineral.
“Blue Knight.”
This blue knight was a very distinctive mineral.
“I have to try making something I’ve never made before with this.”
This time, what I was making wasn’t a sword or armor.
“There’s something I felt while catching the Lizardman King.”
The lizardmen’s weapon was an axe.
It was a very powerful weapon that could cut, tear, and split something in one blow.
Dojun was thinking of making an axe this time.
“The impact is good. It’s also nice to use.”
Dojun immediately started making equipment.
-Raise your potential!
-75 >> 100
After fully maximizing the material’s potential.
Dojun synthesized an iron ingot to become the handle.
-Iron Ingot X Iron Ingot X Iron Ingot
– Make equipment!
-Please choose your main ingredient!
It uses a triple-layer iron ingot as a handle and this blue knight as the blade.
Shaaaaak-!
Clang-! Clang-! Clang-!
Dojun struck the hammer rhythmically.
This was the crux of it.
Will it make each blow big and heavy and powerful?
Or should I make it as light as possible to make it a light-feeling axe?
‘I have to take both.’
Kyaang-!
Dojun gave it a thickness that allowed it to be light while still being powerful through subtle balancing.
“Hoooooo.”
Dojun was quite nervous.
“I need to level up my Hand of Midas as soon as I get enough points.”
I could feel it instinctively.
I think this will get an S rank.
If an S-grade item is obtained, Do-jun’s stamina will decrease exponentially. Of course, since he didn’t make S-grade equipment with S-grade materials, he won’t faint, but it could have gotten to that point.
Gulp, gulp.
So Dojun quickly ate the 3-layer Vitality Potion and several other potions.
Kyaang-!
And then he finished the final hammering.
Shaaaaaaaaaaah-!
An intense blue light enveloped the finished axe.
“······.”
-I made the equipment!
-Great achievement! You’ve created an item that surpasses the limits!
-Revision result [+++++]
-Perfect fix! You get points!
-I created S-grade equipment!
-You got points!
– Greatly increases the proficiency of the Hand of Midas.
-Dexterity stat increases!
Binggle.
Dojun staggered for a moment.
But it soon balanced out.
Dojun held the axe tightly.
and.
“Grant intermediate options.”
It gave me an option that I had never given before.
