Chapter 128

Тhе trеаsure chеst thаt аррears aftеr dеfeating thе Wolf King.

Аilее аnd hеr рarty сould cоnfirm thаt the rumоrs thеу hаd hеard wеre truе.

‘It reallу dоеs drоp a сhest? Аnd five of them аt thаt, I’m so jealous…’

Тhе information that treаsurе chests fall from the skу wаs something shе heаrd fоr thе first timе today.

It was sаid that chеsts арpeаr rаndоmly from 1 tо 5, and sincе 5 appeаrеd, it could bе сonsidеred eхtremely luсky.

“Shаrin, еxcluding the steel сhest, сhооse аnd opеn whiсhеver woоden сhеst уоu wаnt from thе rеst.”

Whаt was еvеn more surprising was that even though Khan had defeated the Wolf King alone, he was letting his disciple open a chest first.

‘His skills are one thing, but how can his heart be that broad too?’

Come to think of it, Ailee herself, and her party member Karel, had picked a fight with Khan earlier.

Despite that, he had saved them.

‘He’s someone worth emulating in character as well.’

Ailee, thinking that Khan’s character was outstanding, stared at him blankly.

But suddenly, wasn’t he looking at her?

Ailee, whose eyes met his, hurriedly averted her gaze, then cautiously looked back at Khan, but he was still staring at her.

“Huh, is there something on my face?”

“No, now you all choose as well.”

“Huh? Choose what…?”

Suddenly told by Khan to choose, Ailee couldn’t understand at all what he meant.

On the other hand, Khan thought of giving them the chance to choose a treasure chest as well, since in a way, it was thanks to the adventurers of Ailee’s party that the Wolf King was discovered.

After all, what Khan wanted was the Unique-Rank item obtainable from the Wolf King.

“Choose whichever wooden chest you want, excluding the steel chest. You all fought hard too, so you deserve to get a reward.”

“…Is that really okay?”

“Yes.”

Just how broad-minded must one be to share loot even with people they’re meeting for the first time?

Moreover, this treasure chest obtained from the Wolf King was no ordinary loot.

‘Each one of those chests must be worth a fortune… and he’s sharing them with us too?’

Karel and Drazeon were thinking similarly.

“Don’t feel burdened. I’m sharing because I think you’re fully qualified, so just accept it comfortably.”

“Th-thank you!”

“Kuhuk, Sir Khan…! Please forget everything I did…! I’m truly sorry. I didn’t know you were such a person of outstanding character…”

“Sir Khan, thank you. I will definitely repay this favor even if it takes a lifetime.”

Karel, seemingly quite moved, even shed tears and bowed deeply to Khan.

Drazeon also bowed his head and sincerely expressed his gratitude to Khan.

And so, the three of them each selected a wooden chest and stood before them.

When they opened the chests, amazingly, items suited to each of their classes came out.

From Ailee’s chest came an Epic-Rank staff, from Karel’s chest came a Rare-Rank sword, and from Drazeon’s chest came a large shield.

“This is an incredible level of staff…? Is it really okay for me to take this, Sir Khan?”

“I don’t intend to take back my words.”

“Thank you so much…!”

Ailee knew very well the value of the staff she obtained.

It seemed slightly inferior in performance to the staff she was currently using, but if she sold it, she could get an enormous amount of money.

‘If I sell this staff, I can secure enough money to establish a guild. But is it right to sell this…?’

In a way, it was no different from a gift from Khan, so she wondered if it was okay to sell it.

Meanwhile, Khan was looking at the staff Ailee obtained.

‘That staff is Epic-Rank. She probably has no need to use it herself. The staff she originally used was a much better staff, wasn’t it?’

Since its performance was even worse than the wand Sharin possessed, he didn’t particularly feel it was a waste.

“Ailee.”

“Yes…?!”

When Khan called Ailee’s name, she exclaimed with a flustered expression.

Why was he calling her name?

She wondered if, seeing this staff, he felt a bit regretful and wanted to take it back, but of course, that was nonsense.

“The staff you obtained seems slightly inferior in performance to the staff you currently have. You don’t have to keep it just because I gave it to you.”

“How did you…?”

“I’m saying it’s fine to sell it comfortably.”

“……Thank you.”

Upon hearing Khan’s words, Ailee did not refuse.

After all, she really didn’t need it.

“Thank you, Sir Khan! I will use this sword for the rest of my life!”

“A shield… I also realized a lot this time about how lacking I am. I will use this shield until it breaks. Thank you!”

For Karel and Drazeon, perfectly suited items came out, so both had genuinely happy expressions.

‘Now only mine remains.’

Now only the most important steel chest remained.

Khan recalled the list of Unique items obtainable from the Wolf King.

As a veteran of <Geo Arc>, Khan remembered all items obtainable from most monsters.

‘The Unique items obtainable from the Wolf King are… Chain of the Full Moon, Ring of Life, Steel Skin Cloak. Those three, right.’

Chain of the Full Moon, Ring of Life, and Steel Skin Cloak were all Unique-Rank items with low level restrictions.

All had a level restriction of 70, so Khan could equip them immediately.

Of course, what Khan needed was only the ‘Chain of the Full Moon’.

‘If I just get the Chain of the Full Moon, my Mana will increase significantly right away.’

The Chain of the Full Moon was a pendant shaped like a small chain, and it was a considerably good item even among Unique-Rank items.

This was because, despite being level 70, it tremendously increased Mana Capacity when equipped.

‘It’s an item with much better performance than the Mana Link Pendant, which is a level 150 Unique-Rank item I received from Eddy.’

The Mana Link Pendant he received from Eddy before increased Mana by 1000, but the Chain of the Full Moon increased Mana by much more than that.

Moreover, up to two pendants could be equipped, so even with two pendants, there was no need to discard the other.

‘The Ring of Life or Steel Skin Cloak are items I have absolutely no need for.’

The Ring of Life or Steel Skin Cloak were items mainly equipped by swordsmen or warriors, increasing Stamina and defense.

‘If by any chance the Ring of Life or Steel Skin Cloak comes out, I should give it to that guy Byutek.’

Having finished his thoughts, Khan slowly approached the steel chest.

Creak, when he opened the chest, an item glowing blue inside greeted Khan.

‘It came out…!’

The Chain of the Full Moon that Khan so desired was sitting squarely inside the steel chest.

The Chain of the Full Moon was made of a chain with a bluish tint, because a slight amount of Mana was imbued throughout the entire chain.

“Wow, Master’s looks good, doesn’t it?”

“You have a good eye, Sharin. This is a good item. I didn’t expect this to come out, I was lucky.”

Saying that, Khan first checked the item information.

[Item: Chain of the Full Moon]

  • Item Rank: Unique

  • Level Restriction: 70

  • Mana: +2000

  • Mana Control: +200

Khan couldn’t help but be surprised seeing the item options.

He immediately took out the Mana Link Pendant he had received from Eddy from his Spatial Pocket and compared them.

[Item: Mana Link Pendant]

  • Item Rank: Unique

  • Level Restriction: 150

  • Mana: +1000

  • Mana Control: +100

Comparing the two items like this, he could once again realize that the Chain of the Full Moon was truly a cheat-level item.

The Mana Link Pendant had a level restriction of 150, so he couldn’t equip it and was just storing it.

On the other hand, the Chain of the Full Moon Khan obtained this time had performance twice as good in all aspects compared to the Mana Link Pendant, despite having a level restriction of only 70.

When Khan immediately equipped the Chain of the Full Moon, a message appeared before his eyes.

[Unique item ‘Chain of the Full Moon’ has been equipped.]

[Mana has increased by ‘2000’.]

[Mana Control has increased by ‘100’.]

Along with the message, he felt Mana increasing inside his body.

Originally, Khan’s total Mana Capacity was about 8000.

With Mana increasing by about a quarter of his total Mana at once, he felt Mana overflowing inside his body.

‘Thanks to the Chain of the Full Moon, my Mana has finally surpassed ten thousand, I guess.’

Khan opened his Status Window.

◈ LV.76

◈ Khan (Lee Huseong)

◈ Mana: 10510/10510

◈ Talent: Magic

◈ Experience Points: 67.4%

◈ Skills: (10★)Sage’s Heart, (8★)Growth Acceleration, (1★)Arrow, (1★)Barrier, (2★)Fire Boom, (2★)Fireball, (2★)Mirror Defense, (2★)Mana Enhancement, (1★)Wind Cutter, (3★)Dragon’s Breath, (4★)Mana Circulation, (4★)Power Amplification, (4★)Space-Time Leap, (5★)Dark Flame

His Mana had truly surpassed ten thousand.

‘With this, I can consider everything I needed to do before the Underground Arena Tournament starts done.’

Moreover, if he took the materials he had collected so far to Eddy, he could upgrade the Staff of Dawn one more step.

‘Sharin has become quite strong too, so she could achieve quite good results in the Underground Arena Tournament. No, perhaps she might even face me in the finals.’

Someone of Sharin’s caliber was an outstanding Mage, so she could even aim for victory in the Underground Arena Tournament.

Anyway, having cleared the Quest, defeated the Wolf King, and even obtained the desired item, Khan approached the adventurers of Ailee’s party.

‘Shall I make the request now?’

Having given the carrot to the adventurers of Ailee’s party, it was time for the whip.
