Chapter 174 - Disaster Artifact



PR: MattForgenti

[You have met with Demon Gorac, one of the Seven Myths.]

[You have acquired 100 reputation points.]

Minhyuk’s eyes widened when he heard the notifications.

Gorac was the one who created the Aging Jar. Once you placed a food in the jar, it would immediately ripen and mature. After he had received this artifact he had no doubts about Gorac being a good chef. And he thought that he was probably someone who also liked delicious food.

If that’s not it then I don’t know why he can make such an amazing artifact, right?

Minhyuk showed great respect and admiration towards the gigantic Gorac in front of him. And Gorac who had been observing him for quite a while grinned  and laughed.

“You’re an interesting human.”

Minhyuk smiled rightly at him.

“You have my aging jar.”

“That’s right. I have been using it well!”

Then, Minhyuk looked side by side before whispering to him.

“Not too long ago, I ripened and matured some doenjang. Don’t you think that I can make some really good doenjangjjigae with the tofu made from this millstone?”

Gorac was quite eccentric. This was also the reason why he became interested in Minhyuk as soon as he saw him. He had always liked unusual people. Of course, Gorac’s Aging Jar truly had such an ability but he thought that it wouldn’t be much of a use to others. However, it seemed like the young man in front of him had truly only used it for that ability.

‘I can’t believe that this lad had killed Rune in just 5 minutes.’

He’s an interesting character.

Grin━

And he needed to settle what had been set. He had set things up with his subordinates before he was sealed. His Demon Worshippers would be able to summon him through the rings that they had if the set conditions had been fulfilled. And if he was able to come out of the ring by himself then it meant that there would definitely be someone with the ‘Demon’s Name’ that would succeed him. This was also the reason why Gorac was so surprised when he came out.

Brrrrrrr━

Demon Gorac straightened his black index finger. His nails looked like they were extremely strong and sharp. A weak black light slowly formed in front of his finger as a book was summoned. The book with the figure of a Demon printed on it floated towards Minhyuk before landing slowly in front of Minhyuk.

At that moment, notifications rang in Minhyuk’s ears.

[You have acquired Gorac’s Book.]

[Gorac’s Book can allow you to transfer to one of the special job classes created by Demon Gorac. This book will give you a job according to your preferences.]

[The job classes that Demon Gorac had created are all ranked ‘Legendary’.]

[You currently have the God Class, Food God. You are not allowed to give up your God Class.]

Minhyuk tilted his head in confusion when he heard the notifications. He was quite taken aback to hear a sudden notification about transferring to a new job class.

Then, Gorac looked at him. A while ago, the light that flashed from Gorac’s Book was suddenly bounced off. It seemed like it was bounced off after trying to possess the human. In other words, the human in front of him had a job class that couldn’t be replaced by Gorac’s Book.

As expected, he’s an interesting human.

“That Gorac’s Book is extremely priceless, you should keep it well.”

“Yes, I understand. But, you really have cool horns.”

“......”

Gorac looked at him with a ‘Hmm.’ at the unexpected flattery that came his way.

“Wow! You even have veins showing on your arms! You’re truly such a manly man!”

There was only one reason why Minhyuk was laying on his flattery and using his glib tongue to the best of his abilities……

It was because he smelled something delicious from him.

“What’s more, you’re even 2m tall…… Wow~”

Gorac watched him attentively.

He suddenly heaped praises on him. After laying on the flattering praises, he coughed loudly before asking him cautiously.

“Gorac-nim, I believe you know about delicious food ingredients, right? Cough, cough!”

His mouth was almost torn with how wide he was grinning.

‘A man who wanted something from me……’

Such a man was a rare sight to see. Normally, humans would not be able to speak since they were overcome with fear of him. Just as he was thinking about this, a funny idea suddenly flashed through Gorac’s mind.

‘There were those ingredients.’

He let out a deep smile. It was his hobby. Ever since before, he had always loved to play pranks against others. Then he said……

“Delicious food ingredients. I know of them. I know of a famous area in the Demon World where you can get special ingredients.”

“Waaaaaaaa. Really?”

Gorac nodded his head.

“But that ingredient can only be found in the temple. Those ingredients are as special as the Aging Jar and the Millstone of Abundance.”

“Oh……”

A smile curled on Minhyuk’s mouth when he heard of his words.

A place where so many mysterious and special ingredients are hidden?

“Boy, I will let you know about that special place.”

When Gorac stretched his fingers out, an ancient looking map appeared in front of them.

[The Map to the Hidden Temple can be obtained once you accept the quest.]

At that exact same moment, a quest window popped up in front of Minhyuk.

[Quest: A Hidden Temple.]

Rank: Sealed.

Restrictions: Lv340

Rewards: Sealed

Penalty for Failure: Sealed

Description: Sealed

Everything was sealed. However, Minhyuk still accepted it without hesitation.

‘I accept.’

[You have acquired the Map of the Hidden Temple.]

(Map of the Hidden Temple)

Restrictions: Lv340

Description: Currently Sealed.

Minhyuk still couldn’t check anything since his level  did not reach the required level yet.

“It’s time for me to go back now.”

When Gorac turned to leave, Minhyuk bowed down to him.

“Please get back home safely! Thank you very much!”

Gorac’s mouth was twitching as he grinned wildly. If someone saw the eccentric face of Demon Gorac with a grin on it, then they would be sure that a baby would burst into tears with how scary it was.

‘Huhuhuhuhu! That’s right, there are very special ingredients there! But in there……. Puhahahahahaha! There’s someone that’s on par with me that would be waiting for you in there.’

Gorac laughed playfully. Then he paused.

‘If he can get through it then he will be able to obtain unimaginable powers but if he fails then he will undergo immense, terrible pain.’

Shwaaaaaaaak!

Gorac was sucked back inside the ring while Minhyuk looked at his back that was disappearing like he was looking at an idol.

“He’s such a nice guy!”

Minhyuk smiled brightly. Just as he turned around, the bright smile in his face disappeared as it was replaced with a fishy smile.

***

‘As expected. I was right.’

The notification about Gorac’s appearance somewhat surprised Minhyuk. He was named as a Demon in the notifications.

Demon.

They were existences that one should be wary of. Even though there wasn’t much information released about them yet, he was sure that Gorac was a big shot with tremendous power in the Demon World.

For the first time since playing Athenae, Minhyuk had felt ‘dread’. Gorac seemed like he was interested in him but Minhyuk’s heart trembled in fear. However he thought that Gorac was the one who made the aging jar so it was highly likely that he was also the one who made the millstone.

Is it possible that he knew the location of another ingredient or material? He should be the one who’s most likely to know, right?

He pretended to be innocent as he smiled brightly at him. Of course, Minhyuk would always have a bright smile whenever he was eating food or thinking about food. However, over the course of his stay in the world of Athenae, he realized that his silly and innocent smile was very helpful to him. In other words, Minhyuk received a quest from Gorac by using his ‘I’m a fool who knows nothing!’ appearance. This meant that Minhyuk had one-upped Gorac without him knowing it at all.

‘There should definitely be delicious ingredients there. The only problem is that I don’t know what’s in there.’

Minhyuk nodded along as he thought of this fact. Then, he walked back to the millstone as he reached his hands out to acquire it.

[You have acquired the Millstone of Abundance.]

He quickly checked the information of the millstone.

(Millstone of Abundance)

Rank: Unique

Restrictions: 400 DEX

Durability: 5,000 / 5,000

Special Abilities:

━ If you put something inside and grind it, you can get a yield that is twice the initial amount you placed inside.

━ The first grind will have a very, very special power and it will be extremely delicious.

Description: It’s a very special millstone where you can get twice the amount of the ingredient that you placed inside once you grind it.

“Hmm.”

Minhyuk looked at the place where Gorac disappeared. He would definitely have guessed that it was an item that he made if Gorac did not appear in front of him. He was sure that Gorac made this millstone. And he also confirmed the fact that Gorac was not a really good chef but he was a demon instead. These points made him suspicious.

‘Is something hidden?’

He was curious about such things, however he still shook his head to clear his thoughts.

‘Right now……’

It was the time to focus on one thing and one thing alone. It was to eat delicious tofu that was made from the millstone.

Minhyuk quickly took out the beans that he had placed in his inventory in advance. To make tofu, he needed to soak the beans for at least eight hours that was why he had prepared it in advance. Right now, it was the time for him to make delicious food with the tofu that he would make with the millstone.

‘Huhuhuhu!’

He put some beans over the millstone before holding the handle. His actions meant that he would be turning the millstone by holding on to the handle.

Before he started making his tofu, Minhyuk made a grave decision. He would make tofu and eat about 300 pieces of it, he would then leave some pieces for the meal that they would eat together since his father loved to eat tofu too.

Then he paused……

“Eyyyy. Isn’t that amount of tofu too little? I should at least eat 500 pieces~ Let’s eat some more tofu. Ahahahaha!”

At that moment, his nogada had finally started.

***

Haurin and the guild members of Bachran Guild were in a buzz.

“Th, the 6th trial has been cleared……”

“Crazy shit!”

Astonished voices rang in front of the tomb.

Currently, Rak was all alone since Kaistra went back to the village to do some business. He was in complete disbelief at the situation in front of him.

‘H, how did he do it alone……’

Five people all together attacked it dozens and dozens of times but they couldn’t break it at all. What was even more shocking was that he took less than 5 minutes to clear the trial.

There were already more than 50 guild members of the Bachran Guild gathered in front of the tomb. They surrounded the tomb like they were in a siege. As soon as the Frying Pan Killer went out, they would immediately attack him.

The Frying Pan Killer would definitely only have one Gorac’s Artifact with him so they were planning to pay him the price of a legendary artifact in order to acquire it from him.

He had already finished talking with Kaistra and he knew that there was a story between them. Rak had once heard a story about Kaistra before.

He heard that there was a local broadcasting network that visited Kaistra’s village in the past. They were documentary filmmakers so the village elders danced and sang for them. But the question was did they really want to do that? The answer was no. They were told that they would earn money, food and other necessities if they did that. So in order for them to earn money, they forced themselves to laugh, dance, sing and hunt. However, they just left without giving them anything that they had promised before.

Kaistra said that he could never forget the feeling of despair, sadness and tears from that moment. He had told him that even though they longed for money they did not wish to be slaves to it. And the same was true for Rak.

Rak thought……

‘I believe it’s worth that much.’

He wouldn’t be able to unseal it so he was quite sure about its value.

However, he felt weird waiting like that. After finishing the 6th trial, the Frying Pan Killer did not move on to the 7th trial. It had been over 5 hours since he cleared the 6th trial and there was no movement at all.

“Yaaaaawn. What the hell. Why isn’t he coming out?”

“What the hell is he doing inside?”

Ten hours had passed since then. By the time the sun set and the night had come, the Bachran Guild Members had been taking turns in the vicinity of the tomb. And just like that, 1 day had already passed.

Kaistra still hasn’t come back, what’s going on?

Rak finally realized something. He thought that perhaps, the Frying Pan Killer was turning the millstone inside. He finally understood that everything would be a waste. He knew that the Frying Pan Killer definitely knew about the disaster artifacts.

Three days had passed.

“Yaaaaawn.”

The members of Bachran Guild were all tired as they set up their tents and relaxed.

At that moment, Rak’s eyes widened in shock. He quietly took a coin out of his chest. It was a coin with Demon Gorac’s image on it.

‘It’s the coin used for finding disaster artifacts……’

It was flashing a black light that only Rak could see. The coin in his hands was a mysterious artifact that could sense when two disaster artifacts were gathered together. This meant that the Frying Pan Killer had another disaster artifact with him.

Tremble, tremble, tremble━

Rak’s body started trembling.

Currently, Callauhel had two disaster artifacts of which one was the disaster artifact that he had obtained. And when he became recognized for his abilities and became one of Callauhel’s confidants, he also had Gorac’s Coin with him. When he met him and gave him the artifact, the coin was flashing a purple light.

The light from the coin would show the rank of the combination of the disaster artifacts. If the coin flashed red, then it was a low-ranking combination. If the coin flashed orange, then it was considered as an ordinary combination. And if the coin flashed purple, then it was a top-ranking combination. Callauhel’s disaster was a ‘Typhoon’.

And right now, the coin was flashing a black light.

‘Th, the strongest combination……’

Shwaaaaa!

The black light became more intense.

Badump, badump━

Rak’s heart shook wildly as he looked at the entrance of the tomb.

Right now, the most powerful disaster is waking up and showing its light to the world.

***

TL’s corner!

Let’s hope that they don’t clash against each other. Callauhel and Minhyuk…
