◈ Episode 120. The guy who saved the world (3)
Kim Joo-hyuk walked down the street following Black Cat and observed his physical condition.
‘It’s definitely okay.’
Impressions that come out at the same time.
Kim Joo-hyuk’s current physical condition is so good that it can be said to be the best.
However, the reason why Kim Joo-hyuk remained silent as soon as he absorbed all the names was because the changes that occurred in his body were more surprising than expected.
‘Originally, it felt like my abilities were increasing in a balanced way.’
Of course, even when I absorbed my current name, my physical abilities increased in a balanced way.
Also, unlike before when he absorbed Hwaja or Hong Gui, Kim Joo-hyuk’s physical abilities have improved so much that the difference between before and now is clearly felt.
However, what is a little strange is that Kim Joo-hyuk’s physical abilities did not improve as much as he thought.
However, the reason why Kim Joo-hyuk did not frown but tilted his head as if curious was.
‘The bowl has become wider.’
This is because Kim Joo-hyuk’s physical abilities improved and at the same time, his skills increased.
‘that’s interesting.’
To put it in an analogy, every person has a set of talents.
Everyone has a different size or shape, but everyone has a bowl, and that bowl never changes.
In the first place, if dishes could be easily changed with effort, the words genius and prodigy would have disappeared from this world.
In a word, everyone can fill the capacity they were born with with effort to the limit, but it is difficult to change it.
And Kim Joo-hyuk was quite satisfied with the vessel this body possessed.
At first, I didn’t realize that Kim Joo-hyuk’s body was so messed up, but as time went by and he trained sufficiently, I realized that Kim Joo-hyuk’s body wasn’t that bad.
however.
‘It’s clear, it’s only a little bit, but it’s definitely increased.’
Strangely enough, Kim Joo-hyuk’s character, which I thought would never change, grew a little as he absorbed the name.
To put it another way in an easy-to-understand way, it means that the total range of strength that can be gained has increased compared to before.
And that was definitely a good thing for Kim Joo-hyuk.
‘Of course, considering that I absorbed 23 names, my physical abilities and magical power did not increase much.’
If the rest had been used to expand the bowl, it certainly wouldn’t have been a loss, so Kim Joo-hyuk followed the black cat, thinking he should ask the guide about this.
Not long after that.
“hello.”
Kim Joo-hyuk was able to see Logan becoming much more polite than before.
“?”
A little question about that.
Originally, when he saw his face yesterday, his attitude had become somewhat more polite, but it was not as polite as it was today, so Kim Joo-hyuk expressed doubts.
“okay.”
Soon, Kim Joo-hyuk lightly shrugged his shoulders, accepted Logan’s words, and sat down.
“I brought you what you mentioned last time.”
As soon as Kim Joo-hyuk sits down, Logan puts down a wooden box in front of him.
Kim Joo-hyuk nodded with a very satisfied expression and began to open the wooden box that Logan had brought.
Sweet.
A wooden box unlocked with a clicking sound.
Kim Joo-hyuk immediately opened the wooden box as if there was no need to wait any longer.
“oh.”
“That’s a lightsaber.”
As soon as Kim Joo-hyuk opened the wooden box, he let out an involuntary exclamation.
‘That’s right.’
What was inside was very similar to the shape of the sword that Kim Joo-hyuk was familiar with.
Looking at Kim Joo-hyuk like that, Logan tried to say that the lightsaber had once told him a story about his teacher, but he kept his mouth shut when he saw him immediately pick up the lightsaber.
Kim Joo-hyuk held up the lightsaber… … No, he looked closely at the exterior of Honga.
‘Nothing has changed.’
Hong Ah’s appearance has not changed at all from what Kim Joo-hyuk knew before.
The same goes for the reddish sword body that looks as if it captures the light of the setting sun, as does the slightly stained gray bandage wrapped around its upper part.
At the same time-
[The light sword kills the teacher… … “Find me,” he says in a mechanical voice.]
Kim Joo-hyuk smiled at the voice coming from inside.
soon.
“… … hmm?”
Kim Joo-hyuk frowned.
####
Logan felt a great sense of crisis in this situation.
No, it wasn’t a sense of crisis.
fear.
Logan was currently feeling fear in the situation.
So why does Logan feel fear in this situation?
There were two reasons for that.
The first reason was that Logan was frowning if something was wrong while holding the lightsaber that Kim Joo-hyuk requested, saying he needed it.
The second reason was because of the black cat staring at him right behind him.
Of course, if it were just like a day ago, is there something wrong with the situation now? Even if I had thought about it, I wouldn’t have felt this fear.
‘Am I in big trouble?’

Unfortunately, Logan ended up listening to yesterday’s story.
Rather than a story about Kim Joo-hyuk, it’s a story about his students.
It wasn’t just one or two, but many, many stories I heard one by one from my constellation, the Destroyer who pierces everything.
Each and every one of them is a very terrible story.
Therefore, for some reason, Logan felt that the longer Kim Joo-hyuk was strangely frowning, the more cold sweat he got.
The stronger the feeling of Black Cat staring at me, the more I felt my stomach begin to burn without me even realizing it.
Accordingly, the story the Constellation told me yesterday began to come to mind.
[The destroyer who pierces everything says that you must be very careful, especially when it comes to the ruler behind the scenes.]
[As the destroyer who pierces everything, she connects half the body of the leader of the opposing group, who once insulted her teacher by calling him trash, with lava-]
Tuk.
As he was reminiscing, Logan looked ahead in shock at the sound he heard.
There, Kim Joo-hyuk began to tilt his head with an expression of contemplation, and soon opened his mouth to Logan.
“Is there anything you can tell me about this lightsaber?”
Kim Joo-hyuk’s question.
Logan glanced at Black Cat, who was staring at him, and began to talk in detail about the lightsaber.
From how lightsabers began to be revealed to the world, to what sounds they have made recently.
Kim Joo-hyuk listened to Logan’s story for a while and nodded.
“Okay, then the transaction ends here.”
“Oh, I understand.”
Logan nods with a slightly foolish expression.
Kim Joo-hyuk thought about it for a moment.
“Oh, and.”
“yes?”
Soon Kim Joo-hyuk said something to Logan.
“Let’s think about it carefully and see you again next time.”
After hearing Kim Joo-hyuk’s words, Logan walked outside, following the master behind the scenes.
And Logan returned home through the help of the master behind him.
“Our Holy See asked me to tell you that he hopes we will continue to be so polite in the future.”
I soon heard that story from Black Cat.
“Okay then, I’ll see you next time.”
Seeing the Black Cat disappearing into the black space, Logan trembled involuntarily.

After sending Logan away like that.
Kim Joo-hyuk looked at the sword in the wooden case with a strange expression and picked up Hong-ah again.
[The one who goes crazy kills the teacher… … “Find me,” he says in a mechanical voice.]
[The one who goes crazy kills the teacher… … “Find me,” he says in a mechanical voice.]
[The one who goes crazy kills the teacher… … “Find me,” he says in a mechanical voice.]
[The one who goes crazy kills the teacher… … “Find me,” he says in a mechanical voice.]
[The one who goes crazy kills the teacher… … “Find me,” he says in a mechanical voice.]
[The one who goes crazy kills the teacher… … “Find me,” he says in a mechanical voice.]
“Hmm… … .”
As soon as he picks up the sword, a notification window appears in front of Kim Joo-hyuk’s eyes.
Kim Joo-hyuk tilted his head and frowned as if it was strange.
“What should I do in this case?”
[If you asked me… … I’m not sure.]
“It’s really useless.”
[…] … For some reason, in the past, I didn’t feel anything when I heard it, but recently it’s starting to hurt little by little.]
Barce mutters, feeling somewhat hurt.
However, he looked at Hong-ah as if he had no interest in Barce at all.
“hey. “Please answer me.”
Kim Joo-hyuk soon tried to talk to Hong-ah, but only the same notification window that had appeared before kept appearing in front of Kim Joo-hyuk’s eyes.
Kim Joo-hyuk looked at the sword again, wondering if it would happen.
‘Is this correct?’
He tilted his head because this sword was clearly the ‘Honga’ that his student had used.
“… … In that case, there is a high probability that the constellation inside the relic is asleep.”
“… … “The constellation is asleep?”
Some time later, Kim Joo-hyuk heard those words from Black Cat, who returned after sending Logan away.
“For what reason?”
Kim Joo-hyuk’s question.
Black Cat kept her mouth shut for a moment as if she was thinking about it, but then started talking.
“The reasons are so diverse that I can’t even guess, but it is said that this situation often appears in the relics of constellations where contractors do not exist.”
“Then, when a notification window pops up like an answering machine, can we just assume that the constellation is asleep?”
“As far as I know, I heard that if there is no response when the contractor touches the relic, there is a high probability that it is asleep.”
Black Cat’s answer.
Kim Joo-hyuk thought about it for a moment and then spoke.
“Then what should I do to wake up a sleeping constellation?”
“As far as I know, there are two ways to wake up a sleeping constellation. One is to just wait, and the other is to use an artifact.”
“Artifact?”
Black Cat nodded in response to Kim Joo-hyuk’s question and continued his explanation.
“Yes, first of all, as far as I know, the artifact called ‘Link’ owned by Loraus, the mayor of the ‘Neutral City’, has the ability to forcibly enter the image world of the holy relic.”
“… … So, if you use that link, you can force your way into the relic?”
“Yes, as far as I know. Of course, as far as I know, no one actually wants to use that artifact… … .”
“why?”
Black Cat seemed to think for a moment about Kim Joo-hyuk’s question and then answered.
“Basically, only those invited by the constellations can enter the image world of the constellations. However, if you use an artifact to force your way in… … .”
Kim Joo-hyuk seemed to think about Black Cat’s words for a moment and then spoke as if he understood.
“Because the constellations might be offended?”
“yes.”
Black Cat’s answer.
Kim Joo-hyuk spoke straight away.
“Can you get that link?”
“First of all, just tell me and I will prepare it right away.”
“Then please find out.”
When Kim Joo-hyuk spoke, he nodded as if he knew Black Cat.
Soon, Kim Joo-hyuk put Hong-ah down on the wooden box again, where the same notification window kept popping up.
And three days after that.
[Kim Joo-hyuk, I have collected all four artifacts you mentioned last time.]
“… … already?”
Kim Joo-hyuk was able to hear such a story from Adelia Bentrick.
