Chapter 110
Кhаn rесalled thе еntrаnсе to Eddy’s shор in his mind.
At the sаme time, аs hе usеd thе skill, а mеssage аppеаred bеfоrе his еуes.
[Skill ‘Sрaсe-Timе Lеар’ has beеn used.]
Аfter the messаgе appeаrеd, the Circle in Khаn’s hеart began to spin rарidly.
Whoоsh…!!
Wheееееeeeeеeeеееee!!!
Тhе mоment a сertain аmount of Manа surgеd around Кhаn’s bodу,
Khan аnd Sharin, who was сarеfullу holding onto his arm, vanishеd in an instаnt.
Swish. Swish.
‘Sраcе-Time Lеар’—a teсhnique thаt trаnsсеnds sрaсе tо movе instаntly, not merely moving quickly.
Khan and Sharin had only blinked their eyes once, and Eddy’s shop was right before them.
“Wow, Master! This is truly amazing!! To think you can use such an impossibly difficult Magic so effortlessly…! I’ll work even harder from now on and someday become a Mage like you! You’ll teach me this Magic later, right?”
Khan looked at the overly excited Sharin, pondered for a moment how to respond, then spoke with a solemn expression.
“Sharin, you’re still far from learning Magic of this level. If you train steadily, the day will come when you gain enlightenment on your own.”
It might be impossible for now, but given Sharin’s genius, she might be able to use Long-Distance Teleport Magic within a few years.
While Khan was placating Sharin, the door to Eddy’s shop opened, and Eddy and Byutek walked out.
“Huh?! Ka, Sir Khan and Lady Sharin…! You’re already here? Ah, I sincerely thank you for saving my sister! I heard from Sir Byutek that Sophia’s condition was poor, and you even generously used a recovery potion for her. How can I ever repay this kindness…? Truly… thank you!”
As soon as Eddy saw Khan and Sharin, he bowed deeply at a ninety-degree angle repeatedly, expressing his gratitude.
“I only did what needed to be done.”
“If it weren’t for Sir Khan… in the worst case, Sophia might have died. If that had happened, I would have…”
Eddy clenched his fists tightly and spoke in a trembling voice.
Thump.
Then, Khan approached Eddy, placed a hand on his shoulder, and spoke again.
“Whatever it was, it’s resolved well now, so don’t think like that. And stop with the thanks.”
“Ah… understood, Sir Khan! Thank you so much!”
“…….”
So, he said to stop.
Frankly, Khan had no interest in Eddy’s tearful expressions of gratitude.
He hadn’t saved his sister just to hear thanks.
He had saved her while taking down Lexar and his gang.
‘Why isn’t the Quest appearing?’
And the reason Khan had quickly returned to Eddy’s shop was not only to test the newly acquired 4th-grade skill ‘Space-Time Leap’ but also to receive the next Main Quest along with additional Quest rewards from Eddy.
As Khan remained silent, Byutek asked with a puzzled expression.
“But Sir Khan, Sharin hasn’t been gone for long, so how did you get here so quickly? It seems like only about 30 minutes have passed?”
“Hehe… Byutek oppa, are you that curious?”
Byutek had asked Khan, but Sharin suddenly answered with the excited expression of a child.
“Did you meet Sir Khan on your way, Sharin?”
“Nope! Master used Long-Distance Teleport Magic, so we came here directly from District 12 in less than a second!”
“What? Long-Distance Teleport Magic…?”
Byutek also knew a little about Long-Distance Teleport Magic.
During his time in the Kilpheon Knight Order, an Archmage from some Magic Tower had visited Kilpheon using Long-Distance Teleport Magic.
‘Back then, even the Knights in the Order and everyone else were amazed by the Mage who visited Kilpheon using Long-Distance Teleport Magic.’
So, even Byutek, who was ignorant of Magic, roughly understood how remarkable it was to use Long-Distance Teleport Magic.
“Hahaha! As expected of Sir Khan!! To think you can even use Long-Distance Teleport Magic, which Archmages use…!”
The more Byutek learned about Khan and the more time he spent with him, the more he realized what an incredible person he was.
‘To protect someone like this, I need to become much stronger than I am now…!’
Lately, Byutek hadn’t been able to devote himself to training as much.
Especially recently, he had spent a lot of leisure time with Sharin.
Byutek clenched his fists tightly, wearing a serious expression as if he had resolved something, and exclaimed.
“Sir Khan, you worked hard in this battle. I, Byutek, am still far from worthy of staying by your side! So, may I go into seclusion for training until the Underground Arena Tournament in Erindel begins?”
Khan looked at Byutek’s sudden outburst and momentarily lost his words, finding it utterly absurd.
‘Why is he acting like this?’
He wondered why Byutek was suddenly behaving this way, but since there was no need or reason for Byutek to follow him around until the Underground Arena Tournament began anyway, he nodded and said.
“Do as you wish.”
“Thank you for your permission! Then I’ll return on the day of the tournament, Hyungnim!”
“Alright.”
“Sharin, don’t neglect your training just because I’m not around.”
“What are you talking about? I always work hard! By the way, why are you doing this?”
Sharin also couldn’t understand why Byutek was suddenly acting like this.
Meanwhile, while the three were talking, Eddy, standing right beside them, had been wearing a serious expression since earlier.
‘Long-Distance Teleport Magic…?’
Long-Distance Teleport Magic.
Long-Distance Teleport, an ultimate Magic that only Archmages from each Magic Tower can barely use.
Moreover, not all Archmages could use Long-Distance Teleport Magic.
‘Long-Distance Teleport Magic is an absolute Magic that only a tiny minority among Archmages can use. How on earth does Sir Khan…?’
Eddy had a natural talent for Alchemy.
He wasn’t exceptionally talented in Mana like Mages, but he could confidently say his ability to gauge the Mana of objects or others surpassed that of most Mages.
‘When Archmages from the Magic Tower visited, I could roughly gauge their Mana…’
Eddy cautiously looked at Khan and checked his Mana.
However.
‘Sir Khan’s Mana… seems too low. On the contrary, Lady Sharin’s Mana is at an incredible level.’
Then, perhaps Khan possessed Mana so immense that he couldn’t even gauge it.
‘He’s an incredible person…! It doesn’t make sense to just offer empty words of thanks to such a distinguished guest.’
Moreover, he was the benefactor who had saved his sister Sophia’s life.
‘What could Sir Khan need?’
Eddy pondered briefly, then decided that instead of guessing, he should just ask Khan directly.
“Umm… Sir Khan. You saved my sister and even dealt with Lexar’s Gang, who were tormenting me. I can’t just offer empty words of thanks like this. So, please allow me to repay this debt to you, even if only a little.”
“Do as you wish.”
Finally, when Eddy said what Khan had been waiting for, Khan replied nonchalantly.
“Then, may I make a suggestion?”
“A suggestion?”
“Yes! Still, I am an Alchemist and run a shop, so I thought you might need at least one item. The shop doesn’t have many items left in stock… but if there’s something you need, I’ll give it to you.”
“…….”
The privilege of choosing one desired item from inside Eddy’s shop.
This was likely the additional reward for the previously cleared Quest.
‘Is this really the end?’
As Khan thought this, a Quest message suddenly appeared.
“And I’ll also enhance the performance of the weapon you have using Transmutation Alchemy. Ah! I don’t think this fully repays the debt of saving me and Sophia. It’s just that this is all I can do for you right now…”
After hearing Eddy’s words, Khan calmly read the Quest message that appeared before his eyes.
-
[Eddy’s Gift]
-
Will you accept the Main Quest?
-
Refusal will make future Quest progression impossible.
-
Reward: Small amount of Experience Points, Main Quest progression for weapon enhancement
Khan immediately accepted the Quest.
[Main Quest has been accepted.]
Then, the Quest acceptance message appeared before Khan’s eyes again.
Khan began seriously considering what he should ask Eddy for.
‘What I need most right now… is a Talent Blooming Potion.’
Not the ordinary Talent Blooming Potion Khan had taken some time ago, but one of a higher grade than that.
Typically, a Normal Rank Talent Blooming Potion is considered the lowest-grade Talent Blooming Potion.
Khan had already used the lowest-grade Talent Blooming Potion, so using it again was impossible.
Thus, he needed an Intermediate or higher Talent Blooming Potion.
‘It would be nice to have a High-Rank or Highest-Rank one, but with Talent Blooming Potions, it’s important to take lower-quality ones first.’
To maximize the effects of Talent Blooming Potions, it was crucial to take them in order from lower grades.
Even when Khan played the game, taking Talent Blooming Potions in order was the standard rule.
‘Users who mistakenly took Intermediate or higher Talent Blooming Potions all deleted their Characters and started over… Ah, memories.’
Of course, since Khan was inside the game, deleting his Character and starting over was impossible.
‘But when I looked before, I didn’t see any Talent Blooming Potions…’
He had even subtly asked Eddy about it.
‘Then I should ask him to make one.’
If he asked for an Intermediate Talent Blooming Potion to be made, he would probably have to gather the Materials himself.
‘I have to gather the Materials myself too… It’s a bit disappointing to count that as the reward.’
It seemed he needed to think carefully before speaking.
Just as Khan was about to enter the shop to see what items were available,
“Let’s not talk here; come inside and look at the items first!”
“Alright.”
Coincidentally, Eddy guided Khan into the shop.
Byutek and Sharin also followed, entering Eddy’s shop.
