Huizajeongri Geojapilban (4)
Hyunsoo realized something while playing Ares.
‘The strong people called High Rankers value pride and honor more than money. They also look to the future rather than momentary greed.’
This is a world where even high-ranking Koreans earn billions of won a year.
High rankers in the world’s top 100 have hundreds of billions of won.
‘I don’t know where that guy is, though.’
Hyunsoo noticed through him.
That he would be the same as me.
The current Hyun-soo may have been able to pretend not to know and not repay the favor to Cavell.
But she felt that she had the power to repay him, and that her relationship with him was more important than money or her own greed.
That’s why I thought this.
‘Even if I had refused, I think you would have done this.’
[Your gift has arrived.]
[You received 2,000,000 gold anonymously.]
“Ugh, so stubborn. Ugh!”
Hyunsoo’s prediction was right on target.
“I told you to give me 1 billion, but you insisted on sending me 2 billion?”
A smile appeared on Hyunsoo’s lips.
‘If we make the villain’s dagger into transcendence, it will easily exceed 2.5 billion.’
Hyunsoo knew that fact and was confident that he would repay it in some other way.
‘What could it say?’
He took out a note, one of the ways he paid back.
In fact, Hyun-soo only knows that he is one of the strongest assassins, but he does not know that he is the world’s best informant.
So I opened the note without much expectation.
[Your protection for me. To Bokdeungi.]
“… … ?”
Hyunsoo made a puzzled expression.
The note that said, ‘Your protection for me’ was a kind of quest.
Hyunsoo started going back to when he awakened the seed of life in Atlas.
***
After waking up many of Atlas’s.
As Hyunsoo walked the path of a saint, he was faced with a notification.
[You already possess two of the three most powerful powers a saint should possess.]
[The last one can be unlocked through a quest.]
By walking the path of a saint, Hyun-soo is qualified to gain the three most powerful powers that a saint possesses.
And he was waiting for a quest that would allow him to open that last one.
It broke out when Hyun-soo came into the audience room exhausted.
Tiring!
[‘Hidden Quest: Give Me Your Protection’ is created.]
Hyunsoo sat down on the chair in the audience room and started reading right away.
[Hidden Quest: Give Me Your Protection]
Rating: S
Limitation: The Lord’s Timber
Reward: The Tale Bearer
Penalty on failure: Cannot become a saint
Description: The Holy King was a special king who led the continent and boasted close relationships with many outstanding and powerful people.
You, who are the material of a saint, must prove that you will walk that path by meeting outstanding people.
Also, if you meet them, place your hand on their body, and say ‘Give me your protection’, you can receive their protection and increase various things such as stats or skill proficiency.
In addition, the stats and skill proficiency that increase will vary depending on how powerful they are. It is possible four times, and you must fill up the protection level by 100% or more during all four times to succeed in the quest.
However, this does not apply to those who have granted you protection even once.
[You meet four people and the power to receive their protection flows.]
If I had to sum up this quest in one word, it would be: It’s a damn good quest.
Hyunsoo can choose the object he wants.
Of course, this would only be possible if the other party approves.
In any case, this applies even if there is no praise or protection they can bestow.
The most important thing is this.
‘If applied to an excellent person, they will gain something other than just that many stats.’
‘If you apply it to the worthless, you will get something worthless.’
Another variable is the degree of protection.
If you do not meet the requirements for protection, you will not be able to obtain the last of the most outstanding powers that the Saint class had, the ‘Tale Bearer’.
‘I still don’t know exactly what the power of the one who holds the tale is.’
But there was something to look forward to.
It was the ability to turn ordinary minerals into alabaster that I had previously discussed with Karn.
‘First of all, Barad and Ben, you cannot receive this protection from Saint Aria.’
According to the description, it was stated that it could not be received from someone who had already received protection even once.
‘I wonder how much things will improve if we apply this to outstanding people.’
Anyway, there are only four people to choose from.
There was a need for caution on the part of Hyunsoo.

Fortunately, this notification also appears.
[You may only give one example by selecting a target.]
[If you receive my protection through an object given as an example, the actual stats will not increase.]
Hyunsoo could think of only one person in the current Atlas territory who could be cited as an example.
dripping-
“Your Majesty, may I come in?”
‘Bella said she would come if I called her!’
Hyunsoo approached Bella, who had come in to report.
“Bella, there’s something I need to check. Can you help me?”
“Of course.”
“Then hold my hand.”
“Your hand? Why are you suddenly asking me to hold your hand?”
Bella looked puzzled.
“I have something to check.”
“Ah… … yes.”
Soon Bella gently grabbed Hyunsoo’s hand.
“Apply your protection to me as an example.”
[Apply your protection to me as an example.]
[Depending on how much power the one granting the protection has, the stats and skill proficiency you gain will vary.]
[Bella’s protection is granted.]
[18% discount applies.]
[Acquire Sword Mastery 1.]
[Sword attack power and cutting power increase by 12%, and critical hit chance increases by 15%.]
[Strength and Stamina increase by 1% each.]
[This is an example and does not apply in practice.]
“… … !?”
Hyunsoo was astonished. The effects were greater than he had expected.
That level is close to the protection of a close friend that Barad himself had bestowed.
The protection of a close friend that Hyunsoo remembers was an increase of 8 to all stats, 15% to sword attack power, 10% to sword cutting power, and 10% to penetration power.
‘Even if you apply it to Bella, it’s comparable to the protection of a close friend…?’
Then I found out one thing.
‘The guardian angel only went up by 18%?’
That is, if you meet these four people like Bella and apply the quest to grant me your protection, you will not get what the saint left behind.
Through this, Hyunsoo learned one thing.
‘You have to receive it from at least a legendary person.’
Gulp-
If Bella is like this, I wonder what level of protection a legendary level would give.
“Master, give me that hand… … .”
“Oh, sorry.”
Hyunsoo realized that he had been applying force without realizing it and pulled it away.
Anyway, Hyunsoo thought as he watched Bella leave after finishing her report.
“This is harder than I thought… … ?”
You have to meet four legendary figures and either shake hands or have some kind of physical contact with them.
Also, the other party had to be friendly to you and approve of you.
If you suddenly go up to any legend and say, “Will you hold my hand?”, you’ll be logged out on the spot.
In other words, this is a really sweet quest, but it is not easy to accomplish.
And Hyunsoo had another question.
‘Does this include potential?’
Potential refers to an entity that has the potential for future growth.
In reality, there were many who had not yet ascended to Ares, but had the potential to become legendary.
“Of course, just in terms of possibility, it’s likely to be lower than the actual legend.”
That’s why Hyunsoo felt regretful.
“Ah! Purum Co., Ltd.! Ah! Purum Co., Ltd.!”
He came to know how clever and calculating Purum Co., Ltd. was.
‘If I could have received it from someone I already had, I could have received it from four people!’
If that had happened, Hyunsoo would have become much stronger than he is now.
Of course, I already knew this, but it was heartbreaking to learn that the power of this protection was greater than I thought.
‘The only one who can do it now is Sage Arte. Arte hasn’t come from the Balas territory yet, so we’ll have to meet him soon.’
That means, in order to completely break this, Hyunsoo may have to build up connections with three legendary figures in the future.
‘Only then can the saint’s final power be released.’
Hyunsoo’s sigh deepened.
“Ewwwww… … .”
Nothing in this world is easy.
This is what I thought at the time.
***
today.
I read the note again.
[Your protection for me. To Bokdeungi.]
‘Who the hell were you?’
Hyunsoo asked a question to his anonymous friend.
This means that he knew about this quest he had obtained.
“Do you have any clairvoyant abilities?”
This would have been a painful thing for Cabel if he had known.
“What kind of being is Bokdeungi?”
The fact that the anonymous friend knew him in the first place means that he had information power that exceeded Hyun-soo’s expectations.
‘Since my anonymous friend also understands this quest, I’ll tell him to use it on Bokdeungi.’
In fact, this can only be applied four times.
Also, you have to be careful because you have to fill up the guardianship 100% within 4 times.
However, Hyunsoo trusts him because he sent 2 billion won when he was asked to send 1 billion won.
‘Let’s do it.’
Hyunsoo moved to find Bokdeungi.
***
Puppies sleep a lot.
In fact, Bokdeungi was often found sleeping all over the territory.
In the arms of the fruit shop owner.
At the guard Paron’s side.
Sometimes they are found in soldier training camps or stables.
Today, for some reason, I was sleeping on the puppy cushion that Hyunsoo had laid out for me.
“Good luck~”
Hyunsoo, who had called Bokdeungi, was shocked.
You were crying a little while ago because your friend left.
The guy who had been sleeping deeply lifted his head when he called.
A guy looking at himself with sleepy eyes and some of his fur being a bit tangled.
“Mahaaaaang… … .”
It’s really cute how he moves his tail helicopter while yawning and not coming to his senses.
Then, he walked over to her with a limp and Hyunsoo hugged him.
“Ugh, my baby, ugh, my baby.”
The puppy’s characteristic squeaky smell tickled Hyunsoo’s nose.
“Maang… … .”
Hyeon-su, who was hugging him tightly, looked at the guy with snot running from his black nose.
And the announcement I heard when the guy first hatched from the wolf’s egg flashed through my mind.
[It will be the most special existence.]
But contrary to expectations, Bokdeungi appeared to be nothing more than an ordinary(?) Sigorjab species.
‘She’s greedy, cute, and has a chubby butt, so she comes running when she sees me.’
Just a common country dog.
‘What kind of power does it have?’
Of course, Hyunsoo doesn’t know about the many things Bokdeungi has done so far.
Just one expectation.
‘I saw the interviews too.’
The status of top-level rankers is rising.
Now that the servers have been merged, they may be looking for their own Atlas.
I had to get stronger.
‘They couldn’t have predicted it… … .’
Excellent analysts and high-rankers from all over the world were analyzing everything about Hyun-soo.
Dealing power, defense, possession skills, and artifact skills. And how to deal with them.
Hyunsoo had to have a stronger power than they expected.
“Bokdeungah, give me strength!”
The moment Hyunsoo applied your protection to me, a light shone from Bokdeungi.
“Maaaaaaang… … !”
Bokdeungi’s eyes grew wide as if she sensed the light.
[The blessing of the lucky charm is bestowed.]
But Hyunsoo was confused when he didn’t hear any notification.
‘Could it be that there were conditions for application? It is impossible to apply to such a weak being…?’
That could be the case.
Even the attack power of the lucky bag was around 3, and the defense power was 2.
Soon a notification came.
[Measurement is not easy.]
[A being with infinite potential.]
Hyunsoo once made a hypothesis.
‘Even if the potential is high, is that much power applied?’
I forgot.
The potential of this fluffy and cute puppy was unique in this world at ∞.
[Measurement is complete.]
[The blessing of the lucky charm is bestowed.]
[You also get 49% of the protection.]
Hyunsoo was shocked.
This is ridiculous considering Bella was at 18%.
Again his heart started pounding like crazy.
It was because of the anticipation of how much the fortune could make one stronger.
Soon the notifications started flooding in.
