Relife Player 228(b)
[Chapter 078]
[Unconventional Fighting Dog (3)]
Academy students had to choose the division they would like to pursue as players in the future, starting with Higher Academy.
This division was not limited to fighting jobs to deal with monsters.
All occupations contributing to defeating monsters were included.
For example, a crest or potion maker, Blacksmith, or Maestro.
So where are you going?
I’m going to meet the maestro.
As soon as afternoon classes were over, Eun-ha was walking around the Higher Academy grounds with Parang.
The destination was the academy workshop, where the so-called blue collar workers shut themselves up while working.
The studio, located in the most secluded place on the site, created an atmosphere that was far from the academic tradition of the academy.
A building with a lake and surrounded by forest. It was very strange to see several chimneys stacked on top of each other like a factory.
Like the disharmony between nature and mechanical civilization.
I wonder if Hae-soo is in the studio right now.
In the park in front of the Eunha building, students who seemed to be aspiring writers were drawing on easels.
As far as he knew, he had never heard of a coat of arms known among the nearby riders.
In the first place, he did not like the sentence master in his previous life.
To the extent that he didn’t engrave any sentences in ‘No One Cry’.
But Eunha Noh, how do you know the person you are talking about will be in the studio? He said he was a middle school academy student. Isn’t this a building that can be used from Higher Academy?
You don’t have to be a Higher Academy student to use it. Even if you are a middle school academy student, you can use it anytime as long as you have points.
Byeok Haesu is 2 years older than Eunha.
Currently a 3rd year middle school academy.
Even so, Eun-ha was confident that Byeok Hae-soo would be using the workshop.
He was a man who devoted his life to pounding a hammer even after losing a hand.
Even in my previous life, I still remember vividly about him, who had never left the workshop even if he skipped classes.
so? How are you going to find it among so many workshops?
…just find the workshop with the worst location.
what?
It’s probably in the basement.
Noh Eunha Are you kidding me right now? You say you’re making a weapon that suits you, but the workshop you’re taking is a bad workshop?
Blue asked because it was absurd. With a look in his eyes, he was asking the maestro, who was not even skilled at the moment, if he would like to make a weapon for himself.
It was worth it.
In an academy where abilities are prioritized, the word “workshop with the worst position” usually reminds me of a maestro with poor abilities.
Come on. don’t you believe me i don’t trust you how do you believe
Did this hyung just live being deceived…
Who did I become for all this time… Hey, don’t look at me like that. They say it’s because they live in the slums and suffer so much!
The academy could be said to be a microcosm of the once destroyed world.
What matters in this world is not only the qualities that are determined from birth.
Wealth to bloom qualities.
Power to use qualities.
The three forces did not mesh with each other, and no one of them could see the light of day.
In that sense, Byeok Hae-soo was a maestro who saw the light only after his death.
Because they did not receive the patronage that could support their outstanding qualities.
A group of teenagers have no eyes to see.
Reputable writers didn’t sponsor the man who crafted the sword on their knees begging him to carve the crest…
Eunha clicked her tongue.
From the third basement floor, the light was dim. The furnishings placed in the hallway were outdated. There was no need to talk about the inside of the studio with the door open.
Lower than here!?
Don’t talk and follow me.
The galaxy grumbled, but took Parang along with it and went down further.
The 4th basement level corresponds to the lowest level of the workshop. Even there, he moved to the workshop in the most remote place.
‘Well, as Eunha said, if the location is good, you don’t have to overdo it to move the materials. Depending on the location, there are cases where the performance of the device made differs…’ ‘
But why are you doing it here?’
‘Because this is the cheapest. I skipped class and stayed in the studio, so I had to save points…’ ‘
…Take class.’
‘What’s the matter? you say the right thing The sun will rise in the west tomorrow…’
‘That won’t improve the performance of my device.’
‘Huh… if you do then it’s like that. You weren’t worrying about me, you were worrying about the device I’d make!
Hey man, don’t be petty. Because the concentration of mana distributed in the academy site is the same everywhere. Couldn’t I have considered that?’
Even after losing a hand, he did not give up his dream of becoming a maestro and was not recognized by anyone until his death.
Even after graduating from the high school academy, a man who said that no workshop would accept him, and was delighted to receive a workshop at Humijin by even kneeling down and begging the academy.
People just laughed at the half maestro.
And those who had ridiculed them turned their palms in disgust after he was reevaluated posthumously as the < Unfortunate Maestro >.
By the time he went there and praised his achievements, he was already dead.
…Here it is.
Are you really here? It looks like this place is being used as a storage for supplies?
It’s between the supply warehouses.
I expected that if it was Byeokhaesu, it would be in a workshop where no one knew.
From the time he was a secondary academy student until his death, he used this place.
Eun-ha smiled and opened the studio door where the sign for Hae-soo was hanging.
…ugh…!
If you can’t stand it, resist with mana.
As soon as I opened the door, the heat hit me.
The flames boiling in the furnace were heating up the space.
Parang, who entered the studio without knowing how to look, reflexively closed his eyes at the sensation that his eyes were getting hot.
On the other hand, Eun-ha, who blocked the heat with mana, casually looked around the unattractive workshop. The sound of banging a
hammer
.
The Maestro, sitting in a chair with no backrest, was hammering the alloy he had just taken out of the mold.
Despite the heat that warmed the space, he only had mana wrapped around his hammer-wielding hand.
…awesome.
Isn’t that a muscle joke?
…That person is 1 year older than me?
Eun-ha giggled as she spoke to Parang, who had deployed a protective magic with mana.
Parang couldn’t keep his mouth shut as he saw the topless man.
Beads of sweat glistening in the reflection of the raging fire in the furnace.
Beads of sweat dripped down the floor like a river running through the mountains.
──!
Concentrating on making the sword, he struck the hammer without even recognizing the existence of the two.
His face that was absorbed in something made me feel like I would fall in love with anyone who sees it.
…Aren’t Oh’s muscles a joke?
right?
The two talked among themselves. He lazily weighed his back muscles until he was done.
☆
Sorry. It’s the first time I’ve ever had a guest… I have nothing to give you but milk.
no. that’s right! No, cool bro!
huh? cool bro?
After finishing the work, Byeok Hae-soo suggested a chair from the workshop to the two of them and sat down on an overturned trash can.
Then he poured milk into a cup he said he made as a hobby.
Call me by name at ease. It really doesn’t make me cry to say that I’m a cool hyung.
Having said that, I like wall seawater.
Eun-ha felt moved by Byeok Hae-soo, whom she met for the first time after returning.
He looked a little younger than he remembered, but he still had a loud laugh.
Life doesn’t look so hard, probably because life isn’t poor yet.
When he graduated from high school academy, he had a hairy face… but now he doesn’t even have a beard mark…
Eunha carefully looked at him as he held up a cup with his left hand.
Byeok Hae-soo, whom Eun-ha first met in his previous life, was already a maestro who could not use his left hand.
In this life he has not yet lost a hand.
I thought it would be okay, but I was relieved to see it in person.
So you’re going to ask me?
Sea water brother! Make me some weapons!
I don’t care what you make… Why me? After coming to such a remote place…
While Eunha was lost in thought, Parang explained to Byeok Haesu why he had come to the workshop.
Byeok Hae-soo seemed curious about why, among students aspiring to become a maestro, he asked himself as a secondary academy student.
Then Eun-ha added a lie in a nonchalant tone.
The wooden sword used in the beginner swordsmanship class was made by Hae-soo hyung, right?
uh? It’s not even a wooden sword I sharpened while killing time. how did you know i made it?
There were initials engraved with my brother’s name on the wooden sword.
…I carved my name on a wooden sword?
HSP. Aren’t those your brother’s initials?
It fits me, but…
Haesu tilted her head. He seemed confused as to whether he had really engraved his name on the wooden sword.
In fact, Eunha lied based on the information she drew from her previous life.
At this point he opened his mouth to change the topic.
Please make me this weapon.
Ok, fine! It’s not difficult. Since this is my first request, I’ll do it for a cheap price.
He stood up and took some samples of mana alloy from the workbench.
Eunha lightly waved her hand over the mana alloy.
Then, the mana alloy that reacted to the mana gave off a weak light.
…mana transfer is not good. … that’s all I can prepare with my money…
…well, I guess so.
Byeok Hae-soo answers with a confused face.
Eun-ha recalled the wall seawater before returning, feeling sorry for herself for not being able to get the proper ingredients from him.
Byeok Hae-soo, who did not receive any support, had no choice but to rely on the materials he had been procuring or to pay for his own expenses.
So he didn’t have a workshop. He spent his life in poverty for the sake of art and died at a young age without taking care of his health.
I’ll get you the materials you need.
what? I’m here to rescue you.
I won’t let that happen in this life. After making that resolution, Eun-ha spoke to the depressed Hae-soo.
He took out his student ID from his wallet. passed it over to the other side.
This…?
Take it and go to the warehouse. Show my student ID to the warehouse clerk and bring me plenty of good stuff. think carefully. Device manufacturing cost is not as cheap as you think. The mana alloy I took out is quite expensive…
It’s okay. No matter how expensive it is, there will be nothing that cannot be bought with Sirius’ best support. … what?
Eunha smiled.
It was the first time I saw Byeok Hae-soo’s face like that.
What is the face of a person who realizes that the student ID he is holding in his hand is actually a card with no limits?
Please make it with the best ingredients. …isn’t this a lie?
You should be able to find out by checking with the warehouse staff anyway. … am I really going? We’ll keep it here.
As soon as Byeok Hae-soo received his permission, he rushed out of the workshop.
He looked at the workshop until the seawater returned.
Then, not long after, Hae-soo returned with both arms embracing the dazzling ingredients.
…the warehouse clerk treats me very politely. It was my first time to be treated like this.
Hae-soo returned his student ID to him with a bewitched face.
After putting down the ingredients that Eunha had told her to prepare on the workbench, her eyes sparkled.
My back muscles were very excited.
Parang exclaimed “Ohhh!” as his chest muscles moved.
What about the design?
There is no design, please make it with a claw.
Claw? Shall we make it in the form of a gauntlet?
yes. And if you inject mana…
what the hell is a claw?
Blue pricked up his wolf ears.
I was interested in it as much as it would become my weapon.
But for the first time in my life, I couldn’t imagine the name at all.
─Okay, that’s it. really!?
He had no choice but to wait until late at night until the device for him was completed.
Jin Parang, who couldn’t overcome the heat and went in and out in the middle, ran to the workbench without waking Eunha who was sleeping in the corner.
…isn’t that a sword? Claws claws.
toenail? Are these claws?
Blue indicated a device created by seawater over several hours.
Gauntlets covered in red leather.
On the surface, it was a simple armor.
He folded his wolf ears in half in disappointment.
what’s this. not nice at all
This hyung just looks… and inject mana after wearing it.
Eunha, whose hair was frizzy in her sleep, scolded her.
Parang, who was looking at Claw with a dissatisfied gaze, decided to try it on.
Then, mana was injected.
…wow!
Four blades suddenly protruded from the clenched gauntlets.
The eight blades in pairs grew longer as mana was injected.
Since it is a mana alloy with a good mana transfer rate, the alloy inherent in the gauntlet can freely expand and contract. The quality of the mana alloy is also good, so it won’t break easily.
Hae-soo was overcome with the reward of making a gauntlet that could freely change its length.
He rubbed the bridge of his nose with his finger and opened his swollen chest.
But it’s not a sword. With this, how are you going to get along with Mok Min-ho’s bastard?
I never once told my brother to stick with me again.
No Eunha you…! Then why the hell did you make this!
Because my brother has no talent for swords.
…what?
have no talent
To those who listened, he spoke cruel words, yawning and not covering his mouth with his hand.
Blue, who had never expected to hear it so directly, stopped.
It’s too soon to just give up. With a sword, you can never beat Minho Mo. … you really…!
listen to me to the end
Eun-ha subdued him just by expressing mana, who was about to reveal his molars.
An energy that could not be warmed even by the heat of the furnace strangled his limbs.
Can’t beat it with a sword. You can’t win. When did I say I couldn’t win with anything else?
…….
His spirits softened.
The galaxy that released the aura that threatened the blue wore a gauntlet instead and continued.
My older brother’s strengths are his outstanding physical abilities as a human being and his quick mobility.
…so? In that sense, it’s not a weapon that can take advantage of the sword’s older brother… It’s not a weapon that’s suitable for an older brother who specializes in taijutsu.
Eunha recalled < Bad Dog >, where she wore a claw and roamed the battlefield before returning.
Jinparang was the wind.
He played with his enemies at a speed that no one could catch.
Sometimes, he used the gift’s power to bring out the claw’s performance perfectly.
If he stood at the forefront, the ranks of the enemies would often collapse as if caught in a storm.
My brother is the one who is not bound by the rules.
Unconventional… unconventional?
Hyung hates doing what someone tells him to do the most in the world. By the way, does the swordsmanship someone has systematized fit your temper?
…Well that’s it.
Jinparang came over.
Eun-ha found wolf ears that pricked up as if asking for more.
I decided to give you a little praise for this.
Include a little bit of what you want.
You live freely as you wish. Ignore the rules set by people and apply a way of life that has been lived by doing whatever it takes to win.
Wolves are not domesticated.
The wild nature cannot be erased.
A society bound by human contracts could not be forced upon wolves.
So he had to go through a way of life that was only for himself without being bound by the mold.
That’s why wolves are strong.
To win… Anything…?
That’s what your brother is good at. Regardless of the means and methods, think only of winning.
…….
Pretty well made.
After confirming the performance of the device, Eunha returned the claw to Parang.
He only thinks about winning…
Did he realize something?
Parang, who was manipulating the claw’s blade, smirked.
The tail, which seemed to have no energy in the meantime, defied gravity.
That should be enough.
Blue cheered up.
Eun-ha, who knew him well, decided to stop caring about him.
From time to time, he decided to check if he handled the claw properly.
Eun-ha tried to use quality materials and pay the excited wall sea water.
However, Byeok Hae-soo refused.
it’s okay. Because it was a good experience.
…is it so?
Because thanks to Eunha, I got some pretty good ingredients. Just in case, please don’t charge me later.
all right. Then I’ll just take it. Come play again next time. If it’s you guys, I’ll always make something good for you. And that’s for free!
Go back later and pretend you didn’t know that you forgot the promise.
I received something, but how can I forget it!
The wall seawater responded with a loud voice.
Eunha just shrugged her shoulders.
Unaware of his future, he boasted that he would produce free commissions for Galactic.
I don’t even know how much damage it is.
From now on, what amazing devices will be made by my brother’s hands…
Anyway, did you promise me?
To be able to sing < Unfortunate Maestro > as a stage song.
It was a profitable business.
So even more so, he vowed to protect the maestro’s soul, which he would lose one day.
