‘Well for cooking, it is just a long and tedious process. With tailoring and blacksmithing, if you use good materials you can quickly raise their level…. Though, thanks to trade, I’m raising the level of skills twice as fast…. Perhaps, it is possible that player did the same….’
But even through the use of trade, the development of all those skills, you still need to spend a huge amount of effort, materials and time. Lee Hyun found it hard to believe that someone else had mastered all three of these skills to the intermediate level.
Shin Hye-min made a pretty expression and eagerly asked
“Oh, so have you interviewed him? After all, if you find a player who has mastered those three skills to the intermediate level, he would definitely have a lot to say.”
“No. Unfortunately, we found out about it too late….”
“I don’t believe it! On Joo-wan couldn’t get an interview?”
“Yeah. I was busy working on another story at the time, and to be honest, hearing of such a player, I couldn’t believe it. Only when the site posted a few things that he did, I rushed to interview him; but, I was too late. The unknown player finally made clothes from prismatic fabric – a fabric of 1st class quality if you didn’t know – and he disappeared into an unknown direction. The clothes he sold at the auction gained a lot of attention and was made into a video. Now it’s displayed here on the screen.”
The video screen of the studio was replaced with a major medieval city. Buildings made in the style of the Renaissance. Majestic temples and high towers, lots of two and three-story buildings buried in the midst of green gardens. Far ahead you could see the Colosseum, and many players wandering the streets as well as horses pulling carts.
In a shop you can see a player arguing with the owner, and in the middle of the spacious square, the auction was taking place.
A merchant wearing a suit offered for sale clothes that add seven different attributes. A lot of players gathered around the dealer in hope of buying something good. The price grew rapidly. Lee Hyun knew the merchant auctioneer.
‘Yes, that’s Mapan. So the player that raised all three skills to intermediate, it was….’
On Joo-wan was speaking about Lee Hyun.
Interestingly, would he have fainted if only he know that Lee Hyun’s fishing and sculptural skill was intermediate as well?
‘Well I was not conducting the auction…’
He thought that the recording of the auction they showed on TV was excellent. Players were excited, crying out and colliding with each other for the desired items. With it, Shin Hye-min and On Joo-wan spurred the interest by adding sharp comments. After the completion of the video, the images of the items sold by Mapan appeared, including the price it was sold for, as well as the item description.
“Look Hye-min! Clothes made from prismatic cloth, made through intermediate tailoring.
“This is amazing!” On Joo-wan enviously pointed at the monitor behind him.
