The Ruined World Was Mistaken for a Game-Chapter 22.1: Leon (3)
Translator: Dreamscribe
Haebyul's fierce knife dance continued, and the chat window was quickly cleared.
Jinwoo made eye contact with her.
The fierce look in her eyes as she slashed through the chat turned gentle like a lamb once it landed on Jinwoo.
“What kind of strength are you pursuing, Haebyul nim?”
“I’m thinking of trying an archer for now. Ah! I got first place at the class Training Center! They said it was a new record!”
As Haebyul spoke proudly, Jinwoo looked genuinely surprised.
“You mean the archery Training Center in Evanth? That’s truly impressive.”
“Hehe..., i-it’s, it’s nothing special. Hehe.”
-Praise me too! Leon nim!
-Wow... this makes me want to study.
-Guys, right now the community best posts are flooded with Leon nimㅋㅋ
-Fan club ESTABLISHED. This too must be the Creator God's blessing.
Jinwoo pretended to be lost in thought for a moment and then nodded.
“If it’s Haebyul nim, it might be possible.”
Jinwoo took out a small gem from his pocket. It was a gem shimmering with a beautiful light.
“Wow! That’s a pretty gem. What is it?”
“It’s a Spirit Stone.”
“A Spirit Stone?!”
“Yes, Spirit Stones are quite rare, but you should be able to obtain one in Evanth as well.”
It was a low-grade Spirit Stone.
Jinwoo placed the Spirit Stone on her hand. Then the stone changed into various colors.
“You have an aptitude for all five major attributes.”
“Is that good?”
“Yes, even among elves, that’s a very rare occurrence. Imagine the form of a spirit while using the Spirit Stone.”
Haebyul held the Spirit Stone and imagined a spirit.
Then the Spirit Stone crumbled, and wind burst out. A small spirit in the form of a young girl appeared in front of her.
“Wow....”
“Please give it a name. Then the contract procedure will be complete.”
After thinking for a moment, Haebyul gave it a name.
“Sylph!”
It was a commonly heard name.
As she named it, the spirit of wind joyfully circled around Haebyul and then entered her body.
[You have become a Spirit Summoner.]
[You have obtained a title!]
*[D]Spirit Summoner
One who wields the power of spirits.
Can imbue weapons or magic with the power of spirits.
Agility +2, Spirit Power +5, Contribution Points +10
Haebyul's body felt lighter, and a warm energy could be felt from within her.
“Congratulations.”
“Thank you! Leon nim! Is it really okay to give me something so precious?”
“What could possibly be too precious for the Hero who has come for Arsilan's sake?"
“Still....”
Could Leon nim be an angel?
No, not just an angel! An archangel!
“If it really bothers you that much, there’s something I’d like to ask..., hmm?”
Jinwoo glanced into the distance and casually summoned a Goblin.
As a Goblin appeared far away, Haebyul flinched and pulled out her bow.
"Try channeling the spirit's power into your bowstring and shoot."
“U-uh!”
Haebyul tried pulling the bowstring, but it didn’t go well.
Jinwoo held her bow together with her. Distracted by Jinwoo’s warm body temperature, Haebyul nearly let go of the string, but Jinwoo held it firm.
“Focus.”
“Yes!”
An arrow made of wind formed on the bowstring. As Jinwoo let go and stepped back, the bow trembled slightly but quickly stabilized. When the Goblin charged at her, she released the string.
Paaaah!
The wind arrow shot out and blew off the Goblin’s upper body.
Thud!
The Goblin’s lower half collapsed to the ground and turned into ashes before disappearing. The corners of Haebyul’s lips twitched upward.
[Lv.6] Haebyul
‘Awesome!’
*Haebyul has learned Spirit Archery!
*Through experience with Spirit Archery, Haebyul’s level has increased!
Jinwoo was slightly surprised after reviewing Haebyul’s log.
‘As expected of someone from Earth....’
Her growth speed was incredible.
[Special Notes]
A day ago, Archery Instructor Anna gifted her a bow.
15 hours ago, the innkeeper Harris gave her a one-night voucher.
7 hours ago, Tia brushed her hair.
5 hours ago, Heina recommended she join the guard corps.
2 hours ago, Namgung Somen sent her a friend request, which she declined.
A glance at her record made it clear, her affinity was truly A-rank worthy.
‘At this point, isn’t she basically a human capybara?’
That was the kind of thought that crossed his mind.
With that thought, he looked at Haebyul.
Haebyul: Guys, is this good? I'm really asking because I don't know, but is this good? I have a wind spirit called Sylph, is this good? The spirit arrow shoots, is that good?
-I want to smash her face in with a rock.
-Here we go again. This’ll last a week.
-Hidden piece ㄷㄷㄷ
-The power is insane.
-Ranked #1 stream worldwide.
Haebyul performed attention-seeking antics with incredible speed and flashiness.
Hmm, maybe she was a little different from a capybara.
Jinwoo watched the wildly excited Haebyul and smiled as he spoke.
“Excellent. You did well.”
“Hehe, it’s all thanks to your teaching, Leon nim! Ah! You said there was something you wanted to ask me? Please, anything!”
Jinwoo nodded with a serious expression.
“I’ve been traveling and investigating the Erosion. During my travels, I discovered that monsters corrupted by Erosion are appearing around Evanth. I want to believe that the Magic Barrier remains firm..., but there may be a disturbing conspiracy underway.”
“That purple Goblin..., was that due to the Erosion?”
“Yes, that’s right. That was its corrupted form.”
Jinwoo’s face looked sorrowful as he responded.
After a brief silence, he spoke again.
“My strength alone isn’t enough. I’d like to request your help in subjugating the Corrupted Goblins, Hero nim.”
*[Leon’s Request] The Approaching Conspiracy
[Lv.10] Corrupted Goblin Subjugation
The traveler Leon has requested a subjugation mission.
Recruit a subjugation force to eliminate the Corrupted Goblins.
*You can register at the Adventurer’s Guild to form the subjugation force.
Difficulty: Very Hard
Participants: 200 or more
Reward: ???, Leon’s Affinity +20, Main Story Unlocked
Haebyul: A quest popped up!
The first quest leading into the Main Story had appeared!
Haebyul: But 200 people? Is that possible?
-Everyone seems to have a lot to doㅋㅋ Too much to do.
-Just gathering herbs makes time fly by.
-There are tons of people who are just traveling around.
-It’s probably going to take a while to gather them all.
It seemed it would take time to organize the subjugation force.
“I’ll do my best.”
"Yes, I'll help as much as I can too."
Jinwoo smiled brightly as he looked at Haebyul.
That beautiful smile earned second place on the streaming platform’s “Video of the Year” chosen by viewers!
