The known quests, like what happened previously and now, as they took a long time to do it was now too dangerous to do them.
‘Depending on hunts and large quests isn’t the proper way to raise a sculptor but….”
Even though he was a miscellaneous character, his main profession was a sculptor.
Then, suddenly, a memory popped up in Weed’s head. It was a memory that was in the back of his mind for a long time.
“Quest Info Window!”
Continue Zahab’s Legacy
Zahab did not die that day. To test his sculpting skills he went to a faraway continent. After advancing your sculpting skills, search for Zahab, learn his song and sing it to the old handmaiden. Zahab has last been rumored to have left for the Grapass region.
Difficulty: A
Quest Restriction: Must be cleared before the old handmaiden dies. Quest cannot be cancelled.
It was a quest to search for Zahab! The quest came from the handmaiden from Rosenheim Kingdom, but at that time his level was low and he thought it would take too long to accomplish so he did not start on it. Also one of the main reasons was that he was in a phase where he was very disappointed by the sculpting skill.
Later on, he asked to check if the old handmaiden died by posting on the Rosenheim Kingdom Serabourg Castle information board and kept on postponing the quest.
‘The quest I received from the old handmaiden a long time ago. If I meet Zahab, learn his song and progress onto the quests related to the final legacies of sculpting skills…’
His sculpting skill remained at Advanced level 8. Mastery was not far off.
“A Sculpting Master and the final sculpting skill!”
As long as Hermes guild exists, he would be chased by them for the rest of his life.
‘Then this quest should be done now….’
The road to mastering the sculpting skills!
In fact, one of the biggest reasons for fighting the Undead Legion was to protect Morata.
Weed fell into deep thought.
“If Hermes guild is as powerful as they say, and they try to interfere with me till the end...”
He was wondering whether he should bow and beg or get on his knees first.
___________________________________________________
Weed resumed his fight against the Undeads in Vargo Fortress. After Barkhan died, Undead in the Undead Legion were seriously weakened. And by joining forces of the United Army of elves, barbarians, dwarves with the humans, they were able to drive them out.
When the last Undead in Vargo Fortress was killed, a video played in front of Weed’s and the players’ eyes.
Hashilis, who had green skin like a frog, led the Undead toward his ghost battleship.
“As Barkhan Demoph-nim disappeared, so I shall return to the sea also.”
Pushing past the mists, the ghost ship disappeared ominously. Balkan’s subordinate Hashilis returned to the sea with the Undead, going back to becoming the ghost admiral of the sea. The unlucky would probably be able to meet Hashilis and trigger quests related to the legends of the ocean.
In the video it gave hints saying that Hashilis left to look for a sunken kingdom in the sea, but Weed just didn’t care about it.
“Now I can get a feeling for things just by looking at them briefly.”
Getting swept up by the quest and suffering through deathly toil, it felt like the quest would lead to storms and reefs.
“Those truly unfortunate would probably take that quest.”
With that, Weed rid himself of his interest in Hashilis. As right now, the United Army of elves, dwarves and barbarians were sojourning in Vargo Fortress. The paladins, priests and necromancers were conversing with them in a blink of an eye.
Only Weed’s companions who were worrying about the Hermes guild’s death order and Geomchi who were too shy to talk to the elves kept their place.
“Be gone. You necromancers who summons the obscene Undead dare to talk to us?”
“I cannot smell any scent of earth or the sound of nature from you. I cannot converse with you.”
“You human who are more worthless than their armor.”
The barbarians, elves and dwarves’ response changed depending on the person talking to them. While they were united when they fought the Undead, but now it was difficult to befriend them since the tribes all had different conditions.
Fame, class, level, skill, equipment, past quest accomplishment, many different variables influenced it. While humans were always favorable to the priests, the dwarves, barbarians and elves who believed in other gods saw them as a burden.
“Huk, the elves are really pretty.”
Geomchi199 got close to Weed and said loud enough for him to hear.
Unlike the short and dark skinned dark elves, the wood elves had golden hair with slim bodies and were considerably beautiful. With a single bow on each of their shoulders, they wore light outfits without armor.
Their response changed depending on who talked to them but to their allies, they shared quests and had favorable impression toward them. So Geomchi199 was hoping for Weed to talk to them first.
Weed approached the closest elf to him.
“The blessings of nature are with you. You are the human that returned nature’s growth in the North.”
Fame increased by 34.
Affinity to Nature increased by 25.
Amity with the Woodland Elves rose to 17.
Even elves living in the woodlands were able to recognize Weed’s fame. Through hunting Balkan, not only did the NPCs like the elves, dwarves and barbarians, but many players admiring Weed appeared. The influence of each broadcasting station competitively trying to create a hero and calling him the God of War was large.
“I am a human, but I am also an adventurer that respects the life and richness that is nature. I only did a small task that I thought was necessary without any hesitation.”
“With your help, many elves in the North are really grateful. And with the co-operation from the humans, we were able to return the Undead back to the earth.”
Amity with the Woodland Elves rose to 25.
Weed had a honeyed tongue and the elves were a naive race that believed people readily.
“It was truly by chance that I heard the news about the Queen of Fairies being threatened by Balkan while I was on an adventure. As an adventurer that takes the responsibility of protecting the justice in Versailles continent, how could I have not come and fought?”
“You are an admirable human adventurer. If only all humans were like Weed-nim, then we would be in peace.”
He also met with the barbarians and dwarves, hearing stories and getting information from them.
“Hunting grounds? I think you are already famous as a warrior but you still want to get stronger? There are many places near here that one needs to go through to become a strong warrior. But still, don’t go behind Ogot hill. It’s a dungeon you cannot just enter casually.”
“It makes me want to fight more. If the monsters are strong, then I can just get rid of them.”
“You have a very good mindset. But your vigilance against the monsters must not waiver. Monsters will invade this place often so you should first rebuild the castle walls.”
Fame increased by 21.
Intimacy with the Barbarians of the wasteland increased.
“Fruits in the forest? They are very sweet and delicious. Elves do not eat a lot of them so if you want them, we could trade for the items we need.”
“If you can tell me the items the elves need I will look into it. Making alcohol with the fruits from the elven forest… I mean, I want to allow the little children to eat some of it.”
He also obtained information about trades. Because Weed was not a professional merchant, he did not wander around to trade but knowing it would allow him to profit from it someday so he permanently memorized it.
“This fortress was very much favored by the dwarves, but now it’s occupied by the humans. Why were the dwarves envious about the place the Undead lived? Keep it to yourself. You must not tell anyone I told you this. A long time ago this place was flourishing with high quality iron and silver mines.”
“Iron and silver mines, digging up resources would bring in money! The property price for Vargo Fortress would rise exponentially… I mean, if there are ores the dwarves need then it should be mined.”
Intimacy with the Dwarven tribe of Hardened Earth increased.
Weed gained favorable impression by the dwarves after he told them he was mastering his blacksmith skill above the intermediate level and they clamoured him to make something together. If he accept their proposition, it would be a valuable opportunity to cooperate with the dwarves in making swords and armor. It would also help increase his mastery in blacksmith skill.
Weed believed that pretense and hypocrisy were essential to survive in society! He believed that if all primary and high schools taught this in their ethics class, the country’s competitiveness will dominate the other developed nations.
The specific elves, dwarves and barbarians Weed talked with, the Geomchis and other companions were able to easily approach them and start a conversation afterwards. They saw the people coming with Weed favorably and thanks to that they could share conversations more comfortably. This was why adventurers, who compared to warriors lacked combat strength, received such special treatment.
Then Weed went onto meet the leader of the elves, Lonserk. To other players, he only gave a cordial greetings without any special response, but he started a conversation with Weed.
“You are the human that played an important role in defeating Balkan.”
“It was what I had to do. It brings me great joy to know that this brought peace to Versailles continent ”
“The Queen of Fairies, Teneidon would like to meet the human that helped her. Could you come with me?”
Lonserk gave him an offer. The Queen of Fairies was a high position that commanded the race.
Weed glanced around quickly and saw that G
