Trait Hoarder Chapter 23

Nectar -1-

Nectar

Kkwarreung!

Lightning struck.

A flash of lightning passes through me from head to toe.

The world has turned white, and it feels like a tingling sensation is penetrating my brain.

And a burning pain rising up both arms.

It was clearly broken.

“Ugh!”

But I stopped it.

I somehow managed to block and defend against the great blow of the divine sword union.

“Ugh, ugh.”

When I came to, I was slumped against the wall of the secret training room.

When I raised my head, the tinnitus got worse. I barely managed to endure the dizziness and looked straight ahead.

Far ahead, in the center of the secret training ground, Seo Woo-jin is lying collapsed.

Already unconscious.

Even in the midst of all this, he was holding the wooden sword as if it were a sacred tablet. Furthermore, a white aura rose from the wooden sword and enveloped Seo Woo-jin.

Black flames swirled around Seo Woo-jin, but they were evaporating in real time due to the momentum of the wooden sword.

I couldn’t help but laugh.

‘Genius is different.’

That’s what you call a grade spoon.

One thing is certain.

Seo Woojin is a born SSR.

Maybe it’s similar in performance to the three warrior series leaders: Baek So-rin, Kali, and Janet.

“Ugh!”

He raised his body, sharpening his skills.

A magical shield spreads around me, pushing away the heat.

The black flames began to crackle and the pain that had been tormenting me disappeared as if it had been washed away.

Oh, except for two things.

The sharp pain coming up from my arm and the ringing in my ears were still there.

I somehow managed to get my arms aligned and equipped them with wound healing and regeneration.

It’s fortunate that two trait slots are empty.

As for me, whose absolute magical power is still small, I need to invest four magical power recovery-related traits to be able to handle the magical power consumption of the magical defense barrier.

I endured the pain and pressed the red button installed next to the door.

“It’s done. Come in and check it out.”

Boom boom boom!

I heard a sound of someone coming down quickly.

The representative couple threw open the iron door and rushed in.

“Woojin!”

“Are you okay?”

I moved away slightly.

So that the representative couple can see Seo Woo-jin well.

Seo Woo-jin lying down, hugging a wooden sword. A divine energy growing from Seo Woo-jin, or rather from the wooden sword, surrounds Seo Woo-jin.

If you don’t know what this scene means, you can’t be a level 6 superhuman, especially a warrior type superhuman.

“Unification of the New Swords!”

“Oh my god! Woojin!”

The representative opened his mouth with a dumbfounded expression, and the vice representative’s eyes became moist.

We unconsciously hold each other’s hands.

Both eyes were filled with laughter and tears at the same time.

It was a heartwarming sight, but I couldn’t just leave it alone.

I said something while caressing my sore arm.

“Are you just going to watch? You should feed it nectar first.”

“Huh! Look at my mind!”

“Oh, right. Thank you. I guess I was out of my mind for a moment.”

The two approach Seo Woo-jin.

I took one look at the open iron door and then said,

“Let me tell you one thing. I hope you don’t think it was me who helped Woojin recover.”

“Why that······ Oh, I see what you mean. It’s because of the church, right?”

If you pretend, it will work.

He nodded his head vigorously.

“It would be bad if the church found out about what happened today. I would be in a situation where I would be blown away if the church even sniffed at me.”

“Because of the Peace of Westphalia, it is difficult for the church to exert direct influence.”

“Honey, I think it would be better to do as Superman says. You’re still at a low level. How do you know what will happen?”

“but······”

“Please inform Chief Choi outside. Just give him a gag order and he’ll take care of it.”

He’s a person I can’t trust at all, but what can I do?

You’ve proven your ability just by mediating today’s work.

It would be better to go together for now.

The representative nodded.

“Okay, let’s do that. The truth will come out eventually, but we won’t be the first to reveal it.”

“Thank you. Then I think it would be good for you and I to act a little.”

“Acting?”

I looked like I was punching the air.

Of course.

Let’s say a level 1 guy came and bragged about curing my precious son, but failed miserably.

But you walked out just fine?

That doesn’t make sense. Even if it doesn’t make him paralyzed, it would be understandable if it at least breaks his legs with a club or makes him a blunt object.

The representative looked apologetic.

“No, but how can you swing your fist at the teacher?”

“You can hit me without hurting me. And if you really feel sorry, you could give me some pocket money. I’ve been really poor lately.”

“Haha, I understand. I’ll make sure you don’t feel disappointed. I’ll give you the nectar and bankruptcy certificate right away.”

He left the secret training ground, leaving the deputy and Seo Woo-jin behind.

Seo Woo-jin seems to be taking care of it in the secret training ground.

Before leaving, I looked back at Seo Woo-jin for a moment.

[SSR Seo Woo Jin]

Next time we meet, I’ll be a warrior-type superhuman.

What level will it be then?

At least level 3, maybe even level 5 or more.

‘Take care.’

I feel full for no reason.

I don’t know if it’s because I’ve broken the old father’s sect in the future, or if it’s because I’ve developed some connections.

Or maybe it’s the satisfaction of saving someone’s life.

“Let’s get started.”

The representative said, placing his hand on the iron gate of the passage.

Instinctively, you focus your mind on the magic shield.

The door flew open as the protective shield surrounding me became clearer.

And then there was the endless screaming that poured out like a train car full of boiling water.

“This little brat dares to tease me?”

The representative grabbed me by the collar and threw me with all his might.

“Huh?”

Wow!

It flies through the large living room and lands on one side.

As luck would have it, right where I was thrown was a display case with what looked like expensive porcelain on it.

As the pottery breaks, the shards rain down on me.

It flew about 10 meters and crashed down, but it didn’t hurt.

The reason why the energy that the leader breathed into me protected me.

But on the outside, it must have looked like total chaos.

The employees who were loitering around the living room screamed in surprise.

“Yes, sir!”

“Fix it!”

“Vice President! Where are you, Vice President?”

“You can’t do that!”

“this guy!”

The representative was completely excited.

He jumped ten meters in one breath and kicked me.

“Ouch!”

As expected, it doesn’t hurt.

Instead, the energy on my feet, the power called internal energy, turned my stomach upside down.

Clang!

This time, it shatters the glass window in the living room and bounces out into the garden.

Vomit poured out of my mouth like a fountain.

Me rolling around in the garden, drawing a rainbow of dirt.

I asked for it, but it feels strange.

Aren’t you going too far?

The representative, who knew that I wanted to protest, ran over to me and grabbed me by the collar, whispering in a very small voice.

A voice buzzing like a mosquito right next to your eardrum.

That is, by sound.

[I think 1 billion won would be enough for the allowance. I will finish the laundry and deliver it to you through Director Choi so that you can use it conveniently.]

uh······

Then the story changes.

Oh, I see.

You can beat this lowly body as much as you want!

It’s not broken anywhere and it doesn’t hurt, so isn’t it totally awesome?

Thud! Thud!

The representative kept hitting on me without stopping.

Meanwhile, seeing him put a small bottle of nectar and a memory chip in my pocket makes me think of him as a master.

It was around the time when my face was puffy like a steamed bun and red, bruises were appearing.

The reception room door opened wide and Director Choi ran out.

“CEO! CEO! You can’t do this! If you do this, our superhuman will really die!”

A look that already knows the situation.

Well, it wouldn’t be difficult for a master like you to transmit your voice over that distance using a telescope.

The representative laughed and threw me with all his might.

“Ugh!”

Outside the main gate, they rolled around on the road, screaming in unison.

The representative glared at Director Choi with sharp eyes.

“I’m so disappointed in you this time!”

“Why, why are you doing that?”

“What? A super rookie? A newcomer who breaks common sense? Oh, I’m the one who got fooled by those words. My wife is sick! You scammers!”

The representative raised his fist and roared.

The current head of the Jegeommun clan, famous for his swordsmanship, and the most powerful superhuman in Jeilboan.

It doesn’t mean that he can’t use martial arts. The cold energy that had been condensed like a drill became like a thousand-mile horse and galloped at the moment the representative threw a punch.

Wow!

“Hipp!”

A mass of blue light passed through the ground, scratching at it.

Exactly in the middle, between me and Chief Choi.

The ground shook as if there was an earthquake. A huge crack appeared where the mass of light had cut through. Before the dust began to fly, a strong vibration struck first, causing Chief Choi to hiccup and collapse.

Even his suit pants were stained black, as if he had peed himself.

I managed to hold on by putting strength into my legs.

He said that he still had tinnitus and almost fell over, but he held on with superhuman endurance.

The representative looked at me with eyes that said, “As expected,” and shouted, “Lord, what is that?”

“Get out of here! You swindlers! Don’t ever come near my house again! Next time, I’ll split your heads open instead of your land!”

“Eek! Superman, Superman! Let’s go quickly!”

“Yeah.”

The car was parked outside the mansion anyway.

Director Choi sits in the driver’s seat, takes out a perfume bottle from the passenger seat, and sprays it on his groin.

“Ahh······ What is this?”

I buried myself in the back seat of the passenger seat, in the upper seat.

“Thank you for your hard work.”

“Ugh, anyway······”

Chief Choi starts the engine and presses the button hidden behind the steering wheel.

Jiiing.

Magical power secretly enveloped the interior of the car.

It’s an anti-eavesdropping spell.

From what I can feel, it doesn’t seem to be a very high level magic.

“I guess you were successful?”

“Yes, it worked out really well.”

I took the bottle of nectar and the memory chip out of my pocket and shook them.

When Director Choi sees that, he looks surprised.

“Memory chip? Didn’t the CEO tell you to use it in front of him earlier?”

“I guess you forgot.”

“Representative Seo is not such an easy person. Although he looks like a bear, he is a very meticulous person. That is why he uses such complicated numbers in the classroom.”

“So you just gave this to me?”

“Well, I guess that means you trust me that much. I don’t think you’ll say anything even if I sell you out.”

But it might not be very pleasant.

I threw a bait to Chief Choi, who was driving towards Sillim-dong.

“What do you think, sir? Should I sell it?”

Chief Choi glances at me through the rearview mirror and answers.

“No. I think it would be better for you to learn bankruptcy law by using it.”

“I see, isn’t that so?”

“Yes. If you are a superhuman of the reinforcement type, then selling is fine, but aren’t you a warrior type? If you become stronger, then you can become anything.”

“I think so too.”

A warrior who gains strength from within through training.

A reinforced soldier who becomes stronger through reinforcement and body modification.

It is plainly foolish to sell the possibilities of the future because you are blinded by money.

“I’m going to dive in for the time being.”

“Well, it’s better not to do anything that will catch the eye of the church. What about the nectar? You’re going to eat it right away, right?”

“of course.”

Nectar is a treasure.

It is a precious thing that cannot be bought with money.

If it were to come up for auction, it would easily fetch tens or hundreds of billions.

If it became known that I had nectar, there would be enough humans to fill ten truckloads.

You have to eat it and get rid of it as quickly as possible.

“Superman, do you know how to take it?”

“How to take it?”

“As you know, elixirs must be taken properly. That way, they can work their magic and side effects can be minimized.”

That’s right.

If you drink it without thinking, you will reach level 3, but you will only reach level 2, and you may fail to break through the limit.

It would be nice if there was at least a magic spring······

“I will try to find the ingredients and equipment to make nectar. If possible, an alchemist. Could you wait a little bit until then?”

Please wait.

I thought about it carefully.

Is it better to take nectar properly?

Or would it be better to risk the side effects and just get rid of the fever first?

While I was worrying, Director Choi focused on driving.

“Let’s go ahead with it. It won’t take long anyway. Think about it carefully and then decide.”

“Thank you. I will think about it carefully.”

Director Choi dropped me off at the hotel where I was staying.

“Get some rest. I’ll contact you once I get my allowance.”

“Yes, please.”

I go up to my room with my hands deep in my pockets.

The hotel staff I encountered were surprised.

“Hey, sir! Are you okay?”

“Shall I call a doctor?”

“The customer’s face······”

The staff are all equally amazing.

I saw it in the car too, and it was really puffed up like a steamed bun.

But there was no time to explain. I made a vague excuse and got on the elevator. After entering the room, I locked all the internal locks before I took my hands out of my pockets.

Nectar.

And the memory chip.

The order of use is important. I first grabbed the memory chip, which looked like a small crystal USB, with both hands and snapped it.

A clear light burst out and a rainbow appeared. The rainbow swirled around me and was absorbed through my scalp, and an image played in my brain.

Footage of a man with a short, blunt sword practicing swordsmanship.

[Bankruptcy Prosecution]

A swordsmanship style characterized by simple yet powerful movements.

Bankruptcy prosecution is also an excellent prosecution and has its own characteristics, but for today it is just an appetizer.

The main dish was separate.

I took the bottle of nectar with reverence.

A transparent crystal bottle with five colors. Inside, the golden liquid sparkles like the Milky Way.

Chief Choi told me to save it for a moment.

But if you save, it becomes shit.

When I think about my trait conversion, the first priority to remove is Shin-yeol, which wastes four trait slots.

Even if it’s only a few days difference.

Do you know?

If we just leave it alone, something will happen.

As if a deer had attacked me and was going to sell me to a wizard.

I made a decision.

Mulberry.

I carefully opened the bottle’s cap.

Attribute switching.

[Bankruptcy Law][Magic Defense][Magic Heart]

[Magic absorption][Drug dependence][Drug addiction]

Three characteristics that will guide your growth direction.

Three characteristics that maximize the effectiveness of nectar intake.

Although it may not be as effective as formal legislation, it will maximize the effectiveness of the nectar.

side effect?

Just hit it with your body.

Gulp.

I swallowed the nectar in one gulp.
