Episode 157

Power Up (1)

The dwarves narrowed their eyes and looked at Jeong-do as he seemed to be more surprised than expected.

“What, did you really forget?”

“no way. What kind of thing is that? “How could I have forgotten?”

“that’s right. that’s right. “No matter how stupid you are, you can’t forget that.”

“… … ”

Jeongdo slightly averted his gaze in response to the nuance as if he was saying, ‘Are you still a human being?’

“No way. I was just a little surprised that they found out his identity much faster than I expected. “You said it was an unknown item, so I thought it would take a long time.”

“Hmm. “I certainly didn’t think we would find out this quickly.”

“I accidentally dropped the doppelganger extract, but I didn’t expect you to react to it… ”

“Indeed, it can be said that the goddess helped. Anyway, that’s not important, so let’s hurry back to the hideout.”

Jeongdo followed the dwarves to the hideout in the dungeon. It was easy to guess how excited the dwarves were from their light steps.

‘What exactly is that bead?’

As he watched the dwarves’ actions, even his own mood began to get excited.

I feel like I will see more than I can imagine. His walking pace began to become as fast as that of the dwarves.

Squeak.

Soon, we arrived at the dwarves’ hideout that we had visited several times.

The dwarves told him to sit down for a while while they would bring something, and he obediently obeyed. Jis sat across from Jeong-do, holding two large wooden cups.

The wooden cup was filled with cold beer, and Jis placed one of them down in front of Jeongdo. Then he took a swig of his beer and smiled.

“Anyway, they’re such a bunch of sloppy guys, why are they running around just to get a bead the size of their palm? “I wasted my age.”

“For that matter, I think Jis wants to go too.”

Just as Jeongdo said, Jis was gulping down his beer while occasionally glancing at the lab where the other dwarves were entering. Jis was silent for a moment, as if he had hit the nail on the head, and then slammed down his beer glass! After putting it down, he spoke in a low voice.

“… joy. Still, I can’t leave the customer alone.”

“Wow, this should be touching right now, right?”

“shut up!”

Jis got up from his seat and walked toward the kitchen, as if he was embarrassed. Then I filled the beer glass again and brought it back.

This is not an empty remark, but I was somewhat moved.

How was your reception when you first came here?

Dwarves called Jeongdo by adding the words ‘barbaric human’ and ‘barbaric universe’ to the end of each word. Of course, the word ‘savage’ was forgotten after he was cruelly destroyed by the game, but there were times when he implicitly acted as if he was ignoring the universe called Earth.

But it was different now.

It wasn’t because he had the miracle of the beginning, and he wasn’t treating him well just to win a proxy lottery.

Although he is not at the level of being able to detect lies or smell hidden conspiracies like Ixia, he also possesses the miracle of the beginning called <Communication-lv.3>.

I was able to fully understand whether people were genuinely happy when interacting with each other or whether it was just an appearance.

The dwarves were now truly welcoming Jeong Do’s visit. Somehow I felt better, so I drank that much beer in one go.

“Cluck. You drink well. What is it like? “One more drink?”

“I want to do that too, but I think I’ll have to postpone it until later.”

Some eyes turned towards the laboratory. There, six dwarves were carrying a small box very carefully.

The sight of six people being forced into a box that could only be carried by one person was quite funny, but the dwarves’ expressions were extremely serious.

They approached the table and slowly put down the box. Jeongdo smiled and asked them.

“Aren’t you being too careful? “Is this something that can break even with a light impact?”

“Are you broken? What do you think of our skills? “We put up a barrier that can withstand even the dragon’s breath.”

“It seems a bit overprotective. Anyway, thank you.”

“Even if you search the entire universe, you can’t find it…” No, it was unknown whether it actually existed or not, so of course we should be careful.”

“Can I open it?”

“Of course it’s yours. Oh, wait a moment. “I’ll bring you gloves.”

“Oh, it seems dangerous to catch it with bare hands.”

“danger? Is there any way they could put something like that out there? “It’s just because it’s hard to watch great things getting dirty.”

“… … ”

At least he decided to retract his message that the dwarves thought of him as a friend.

“Okay, here are the gloves. Wear it tightly and touch it.”

“I knew. all right.”

Although he grumbled a bit, he calmly put on his gloves.

Dwarves usually have some abnormal tendencies, but today they seem to be particularly severe. It occurred to me that religious people would make such a fuss if they encountered the sacred objects of their religion with their own eyes.

Of course, I didn’t mean it was bad. That means it’s something so awesome that they’re making a fuss!

Perhaps because of their cautious attitude, I carefully opened the box. The box opened very smoothly without any slight hinge sound.

“… and.”

The moment I opened the box, I couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration. Inside the box was a jewel radiating brilliant light.

I usually only knew about birthstones like diamonds, rubies, and sapphires, but this gem was so different that I could immediately feel it. He gently picked up a jewel that was as big as three fingers combined.

“Hehehe. how is it? Isn’t it amazingly pretty? Just considering its value as a pure gem, a country could live comfortably. Of course, its value as a gem is no different from dust compared to its original value.”

“I can’t believe that the marble has changed so much. “It’s really awesome.”

The beads that Jeong Do first brought were nowhere to be found. Although the size of the fist-sized bead has decreased, its unique mysterious energy has not disappeared at all. No, in some ways it seemed like it was amplified.

After appreciating the jewelry for a moment, he looked at the dwarves with serious eyes.

“So what is this thing?”

“Before I explain, do you remember what we said about that item last time?”

Mikhail’s words made Jeongdo remember. Apparently, the last time I came, the dwarves made a fuss when they saw the marble and ‘guessed’ what it was.

“Surely, didn’t you say it was a possibility?”

“Yes, I remember correctly. In conclusion, our guess was correct. That object is the ‘possibility’ itself that has been passed down as a legend in the universe. To put it a little more simply, it is an object that can be said to have the potential to become anything.”

“… yes?”

The dwarves said it was easy to say, but it didn’t really hit home. The dwarves pounded their chests and drank beer, perhaps frustrated that they could not recognize the supreme treasure even when it was right in front of them.

“Wow. So, let me explain in a little more detail… Oh my, damn it! As expected, this explanation doesn’t fit me. Hey Jis. You explain. “At least you’re the best at this.”

“Anyway, they are stupid people. Look carefully. “This kind of explanation should always be explained at the level of the other person.”

Jis said that and then looked at Jeongdo. To a certain extent, I was anxious about what strange sounds would come out of Jis’ mouth, but fortunately, Jis’ question was very normal.

“hey. degree. Is it known in your universe how the first universe was created? Could it be that God created it?”

“uh… There are some people who believe that, but it is not the mainstream. In our world, we believe that the universe began with a big bang.”

The big bang that created the universe.

To some extent, I was bewildered by the sudden start of cosmology. What he knows about that field is only at a high school level. No, since so many years have passed, you should be considered to have the knowledge of a high school student or lower. It was also a liberal arts department to begin with.

I was worried what would happen if I didn’t understand the explanation, but fortunately, Jis’s explanation was very concise.

“Yes, you are not entirely mistaken. As you said, the universe began with a big explosion. Concentrations of energy gathered together and eventually exploded. With that explosion, the universe was created, and a talent system that penetrates heaven, earth, and the universe was created.”

Jis slightly moistened his lips with a glass of beer and then spoke again.

“Then, was it created because things like heaven, earth, and the talent system were contained in the energy before it exploded? That’s not right. The ‘possibility of becoming anything’ became the sky, became the earth, and accidentally turned into a talent system.”

“… “Then what about this jewel?”

“Yes, that jewel is a conglomerate of ‘the possibility of anything being possible’ before the universe was created. It could be the sky, it could be the earth, and if not… “It would also be possible to create new talent that never existed before.”

I felt it right the moment I heard that.

This is it.

It is precisely because of this item that the ‘real universe’ self possesses <Birth-lv.3>. If anything can be achieved, even the miracle of the beginning can be realized!

Jeongdo asked Jis in excitement.

“Uh, how do you use it? Can I just infuse mana? Or should I just take it like this? Then make a wish… ”

“I don’t know.”

“… yes?”

“We don’t know either. “I didn’t even know such a thing existed in the first place. Do you even know how to use it?”

“… … ”

No, you’re kidding!

Isn’t that like giving the world’s most powerful computer as a gift and then saying, ‘But I don’t know how to boot it?’ No, it was much worse than that. Just as Jeong-do was about to convulse, Jis spoke.

“But there is a point where you can figure out how to use that item. “This is just a guess.”

“What is it? “Please let me know if you have any guesses.”

“you.”

“you?”

“Yes, you. Calm too. We concluded that if you have <Communication-lv.3>, there is a good chance. If you hone your <communication>, you will find a path. “If you are the talent that allows all things in the universe to communicate with each other, you will be able to fully communicate with the possibility of the beginning.”

“… … ”

Ultimately, is it communication?

No, if so, how did the real universe self obtain <birth>? He obviously had no communication.

Jeong-do was in such trouble, but Jis did not let him worry.

“That’s what I’m saying. degree. “I have something to tell you about this ordeal.”

“Oh, by the way, I haven’t done the test yet. Is this also a game? Or draw again?”

“No, neither. What is the lottery… “I want to do it, but there’s something I’m looking forward to more than that right now.”

After saying that, Jis snapped his fingers in the air. Then the scenery in the room changed and the wind blew.

Jeong Do and the dwarves had already arrived in the wide wilderness.

And Jis looked completely different from before.

It was wearing very sturdy dwarven armor and a huge axe. Jis said with a grin.

“Isn’t that what you did when you first met us? Can we spar? okay. good night. This ordeal is sparring! If you want to get something, get recognition from me! I will take this opportunity to train you thoroughly. And quickly evolve <communication> and show us the results!”

“Yes, that’s right! “You’re not ripe yet!”

“If I wait for you to enlighten yourself, you will grow old and die! “We will guide you directly!”

“haha.”

Jeongdo laughed.

Now that I think about it, I have never fought with dwarves.

Based on what I had experienced so far, I thought they were just funny guys.

However, the speculation that JIS is spewing out now… To be honest, I was way beyond myself.

But can it be removed?

Jeongdo also changed the King of All Diseases into a sword and pointed it at Jis.

<<Cheonmujiche-lv.3> is activated.>

<Bonuses are granted to all skills and talents related to combat.>

<All stats +20 during battle>

<You will be able to more easily understand the enemy’s psychology during battle. The flow of attack is visible.>

“Fight with all your might!”

bang!

Jeongdo concentrated all his mana on the soles of his feet and ran towards Jis.
