“Master, you’re here!”
“Oh, Harry. Where’s the store?”
“As you can see, it’s a great success. Most of the items that our main customer base, the players, are looking for are enchanted with 1-2 circles, so the current magicians can easily handle them.”
“What about the things I made?”
“It’s mostly for display purposes. There are some players who buy it occasionally, but not many of them can afford to pay that much.”
“but.”
Equipment and tools made with magic of 3rd circle or higher using high-grade or higher mana stones.
If he had wanted to make money, he would have held an auction and sold it for the highest price, but Se-Woon didn’t do that.
If you buy it, buy it, if not, don’t. That’s the feeling.
If no one buys it before you leave Jehetton, you can just sell it to the Blue Turtle or give it to the Diablo guild members.
As Harry said, it was uniquely valuable even for display purposes, so I didn’t feel any regrets.
“Guests?”
“Ah, they’re waiting on the second floor. I heard they’re the head of the ‘Biscuit’ guild.”
“What’s your business?”
“I heard that you wanted to see the Master in person and speak to him.”
“Good job. Well then, take care.”
“Yes, Master!”
Se-Woon climbed the stairs, leaving Harry behind, who was showing his loyalty by bending his back at a right angle.
Biscuit Guild.
This is my first time hearing about this guild.
I would love to have a ‘made to order’ service with very few requests at a high price, but it seemed like a different matter.
Now that we’ve come this far, I’ll deal with it, but from now on, I’ll have to set some conditions for Harry to call me.
“Oh, hello! As expected. The rumors about the store manager being a player were true.”
When I got to the second floor, a man dressed neatly like a resident approached me with a big smile.
It looks like you’ve been living in Jeheton for quite some time.
“My name is Jeong Min-jun, the head of the Biscuit Guild.”
“This is Jeong Se-woon.”
“Oh my! Are you Korean? I thought your accent was similar! And you’re both Jeongs. Now that I think about it, it must have been fate! Haha!”
The tower is wide.
Although humans are said to have a large presence among them, not all humans came from the Earth that Seun knew.
Some came from different levels of development or culture, and others had different abilities.
There are other races there too… … so the probability of encountering players from the same area and time zone is extremely low.
“Please tell me what your business is.”
“How about we sit down and have a leisurely chat? We can talk about Earth too… .”
“I’m a little busy.”
“… … Haha, I see. Since you’re creating such wonderful enchantment items. Then let’s get straight to the point!”
Although the man had a serious expression on his face, Se-woon just wanted to leave the place right away.
Because I already thought I knew what the man was going to say.
I thought it would be more beneficial to practice or do one more enchantment at this time.
And, the man’s main idea was exactly in line with Se-un’s thoughts.
“I would like to invite Seun to be the vice-leader of our Biscuit Guild. Our guild is… … .”
“I refuse.”
“Yes? No, if you could just listen to me for a moment… … .”
“I’m busy so I’ll have to leave first.”
“Oh, no. I… … .”
Se-Woon turned his back without hesitation.
* * *
Since then, Seun has been scouted by various guilds.
They are trying their best to attract Seun by promising him the guild’s potential, rewards, and positions.
Among them, there was even a request to come in as the guild leader of their own guild.
‘Well, I guess they’ll think it’ll be beneficial if I go in anyway.’
The points Seun is currently earning are truly enormous. He can become a big shot in the auction house as soon as he enters the 50th floor.
Plus, if you could just give each guild member an enchanted piece of equipment, it would make climbing the tower much easier.
Of course, this is something Se-un doesn’t need to hear.
There was no need to deal with new guilds with no influence or power.
As more and more customers started asking Harry to call the store manager, Se-Woon had no choice but to inform them of the existence of the Diablo Guild.
However, after that, the number of guests bothering Harry increased even more.
“Could you please accept some for me too?”
“I’m the leader of the Biscuit Guild! No, I’m Jeong Min-jun who used to be the leader! I even disbanded my guild to join the Diablo Guild!”
“If you accept me, you won’t regret it! I am a rare healing expert among players!”
That’s because people who wanted to join the Diablo Guild rushed in.
Even though they drew the line saying they would not recruit guild members, the requests continued.
Thanks to this, Seun no longer has to go to work when he’s enchanting. He didn’t want to stop by the store and end up in an annoying situation.
‘At this rate, I guess I won’t be in touch for a while.’
Sorry, but I don’t want to bother you. It would be better to spend some more time practicing.
However, not long after that, Harry contacted me.

“Master, we have a custom order request. Would you like to accept it?”
* * *
custom order.
Although it was nominally put up for sale, no one has ever requested a proper custom order until now.
Although the residents are interested, most of the items sold in Seun’s shop are for combat or exploration.
So, the main customer base is mostly players.
Even if players work hard to save up money, all they can do is buy one piece of equipment enchanted with the 3rd or 4th circle magic displayed.
There was no way they had the merit to request a custom order.
‘Who is it?’
It is impossible to have enough merit to request custom orders by simply completing the requests in Jeheton.
At least, you must have passed the trials up to now with a high rank and accumulated high merit.
It’s clear that he’s quite capable.
As I was going up to the second floor, I saw a familiar, shiny, light green hair.
“Riel Refrain?”
“……you are?”
Riel Refrain.
The last elf, of which there is only one in the tower.
Perhaps the last seed of the World Tree, considered to be the only one in all dimensions.
The last time I saw her was at the tutorial, and now she was standing before my eyes, a woman I had never seen before.
‘Well, I’ve seen the name often.’
During the climb to the fifth shelter, Seun ranked first in most trials.
After finishing the trials and waiting for others, I often read the rankings.
Then, the name that was always visible was ‘Riel Refrain’. It was the name of the elf who was panicking in front of me.
“Are you the manager of this store?”
“That’s what happened.”
– The constellation smiles, saying it’s been a while since the ‘Fifth Day’.
She was the one who always challenged the trials on the upper floors before Seun, running so hard on her own.
This time, for some reason, it seems he stayed in Jeheton for a long time.
Well, Jehetten is much larger than any shelter we’ve been to, so maybe he was wandering around to get information about the World Tree.
“It just so happened.”
Riel, who had been flustered, soon calmed down and approached Seun.
The last time I saw you, I clearly requested a duel because I lost the #1 tutorial ranking, so I wonder if you want to duel again?
Although Seun dominated the rankings during the trials, that was after Riel had passed, so there was no way there would be any discord.
As I was thinking that, Riel came closer and immediately bowed deeply.
“sorry.”
“……what?”
“I mean, in the tutorial. At that time, I was so upset and angry at myself that I ended up making a mistake.”
I thought you’d apologize… … .
Se-un was taken aback by the unexpected apology.
“If we ever meet again, I really want to apologize first. I think I was really immature and foolish.”
“It’s okay. It was a long time ago anyway.”
In fact, Se-Woon didn’t feel particularly uncomfortable when he sparred with Riel at the time.
Because she did her best as the first experimenter of the power of jealousy.
Of course, she may not know this fact.
– The constellation, ‘Fifth Day’, looks upon the scene of reconciliation with joy.
– The constellation, ‘The Serpent Surrounding Time’, flicks its tongue with sharp eyes.
“Thank you. I will repay you properly when I have the chance.”
“okay.”
I had no intention of refusing the offer to repay you first.
After a brief greeting that began with an unexpected apology, the two sat down.
It was the first time since Lauren that I had treated guests properly, but thankfully the place was neatly organized.
“Did you find any information about the Garden of Eternity?”
“… … No. I thought I could find a clue on the scale of Jehetton, but I was just wasting my time.”
“There’s nothing I can do.”
After winning the duel with her, Se-Woon made her a proposal. He suggested that he would guide her to the ‘Garden of Eternity’.
However, she rejected Seun’s offer.
He said that since the hopes of his people were at stake, he would go out and find it himself if possible.
Well, Se-woon respects her choice. If you rely on other people’s strength, you won’t be able to develop your own strength.
In fact, if she had been under Seun’s guidance, she would not have grown as quickly as she has now.
Because unlike Yoo Seo-ah and Kang Han-cheol, she knew how to grow quickly without Se-woon’s help.
“Just in case. I’m asking just in case, but I didn’t miss it, did I… … ?”
“If you’re so worried, why don’t you follow me?”
“No. I’m not qualified to… … lean on anyone.”
However, seeking information from Jehetton as it is now is just a waste of time.
Se-un also had high expectations for her power and the growth of the World Tree, so he revealed the information first.
“Well, don’t worry. The Garden of Eternity is accessible after passing the seventh shelter.”
“… … Is that true?”
“Why would I lie? I could tell you more details, but there are conditions.”
“Well, I’ll do my best to investigate, but what are the conditions?”
“Join me at the seventh shelter. You must go with me.”
“Why is that?”
“Just. Consider it as the reward for what I said I would give you earlier.”
“……all right.”
It’s easy to tell the location of the flower garden. However, before Se-un returned, she had gone missing while searching for the Eternal Flower Garden.
No one knew why, but if Se-Woon’s predictions were correct, she would eventually find the Eternal Garden.
and…….
‘I must have lost my life in front of the Eternal Garden.’
This was the reason for her disappearance that Se-un had predicted.
I don’t know how strong she will grow in this life, but I don’t think she will be able to enter the Eternal Garden to that extent.
Planting the World Tree on the tower is something Seun also wanted to do, so he wanted to step forward and help with this himself.
“Now that the small talk is over, let’s get to the main point.”
“Oh, yes! I forgot because I never expected to see you here. Here.”
She placed a cane on the table.
Although it was called a cane, it was not made by cutting down a tree, but was a cane that gave off a natural and mysterious aura, like a complete plant in itself.
It was the ‘Branch of Yggdrasil’ that she had obtained as a reward for coming in 2nd in the tutorial ranking.
“Do you want me to enchant this?”
“Is it possible? If not, I plan on requesting enchantments for other equipment.”
“It is possible, but we cannot obtain the materials in Jeheton.”
The Branch of Yggdrasil is a growth-type equipment that becomes stronger along with its owner over time.
Since it is a rare and powerful piece of equipment, it cannot be enchanted simply with a mana stone. Even if it is the highest-grade mana stone boasted by the Blue Turtle.
“What materials do you need?”
“At the very least, there must be material infused with the power of the highest-level spirit.”
A top-tier spirit is a spirit with the strongest power among the common spirits, excluding the Spirit King.
Naturally, it wasn’t a material that could be found in the fifth shelter.
If you want to find it yourself, it needs to be at least 60 floors or higher.
Although rare, it can also be purchased at the auction house that opens after the sixth shelter.
“Is this possible?”
She placed four materials next to the branches of Yggdrasil.
Seun was able to recognize the value of the materials without having to check the information.
‘The tears of Elestra. The feathers of Cylestine. The ashes of Celeana. The footprints of Noeanen… … .’
All of them are materials of the Four Great Spirits.
As Seun said, these were materials that contained the power of the highest level spirits.
“It might be possible.”
I didn’t ask where he got it.
Even if I knew the method, I didn’t think I would be able to get it the same way.
“thank god.”
“Five million points.”
“……yes?”
“I brought the materials myself, so I’ll only charge you for your labor.”
Riel’s eyes grew wide.
After all, five million points is by no means an easy number for a player.
Even for Riel, who had been running without losing a ranking in the trials before Seun, this was a burdensome point.
But, there’s nothing I can do.
“I can’t do this in one day. If it’s serious, I might have to hang on for several days, but I deserve to be compensated for that.”
“Oh, you still haven’t forgiven me… … .”
“If that were the case, I would have called ten million.”
Although I said I would help her, I had no intention of volunteering.
