Having fought in the castles, they would ponder over this in the middle of break time and still had trouble coming up with something.
‘So this is the pain of creativity.’
‘Art takes more time anguishing over what to make than actually making it huh.’
Even a vague concept as to how to create the sculpture had not been suggested.
After all the contemplations, Sureuka spoke.
“Well, how about this? Conversely of light, how about demonstrating the shadow’s?”
Showing an expression of not being able to get what Sureuka was talking about, Romuna looked at her.
“Shadow what?”
“The shadows of things. Using the shadow as a piece of created artwork.”
“What do you mean by making an artwork through shadows?”
“If there an object, then there’s a shadow. We can create some form by means of shadows like shadow puppeteer, y’know.”
“I think that’s not a bad idea, but is it feasible to create something through shadows and is it worth doing so?”
Romuna was dubious. To use an object and expresses it through its shadow didn’t appear to be tasteful.
But Weed regarded as a very good idea.
The usual Sculptor with common sense wouldn’t have easily attempted this idea, but he saw the advantage that could be found from this.
‘Instead of light, express it with shadows huh. Though this mean, I can make it as big as I can try.’
Composition!
Weed’s desired formation!
There was no need to get the materials also.
There are tons of materials that create shadows!
Weed made the decision in matter of seconds.
“The loot. Ima use the loots to create the sculpture.”
This expensive piece’s materials will come from the items obtained through the hunt so this was an ambitious plan of creating a sculpture!
“Good.”
“Wherever you see.”
Believed in Weed’s ability, Geomchi and the instructors readily pulled out their mats.
Everybody’s loots gathered in one place.
The gathered mats obtained from the land of vampires were a tremendous amount settled all in one place!
Given the fact that the loots were simple ingredient materials, the price of all these gathered here could amount to hundreds of thousands of Gold.
“I think this amount should be sufficient.”
Weed went to a hill located near Todeum to create a tower of loot that was about five meters high.
Ttiring!
The Tower of Miscellaneous Items was completed.
Its status does not live up what was attempted and the piece will remain unknown.
Although built with great dexterity, nobody will be able to consider and will have the difficulty understanding the eccentricity of the Sculptor’s intention.
Artistic Value: 15.
The ‘Excellent Sculptor’ Weed’s work.
Special Option(s):
Those that seen The Tower of Miscellaneous Items will have their Luck increase by 20 throughout the day.
It didn’t even match normal works.
With the current Weed’s carving skills, his smaller animal sculptures also have Artistic Values.
But compare to those completed pieces.
“It’s still not done yet.”
Weed did not stop there.
The amount used was not even 1/10th of the amount gathered.
“It’s a start.”
Weed continued stacking the loots as its size and height unrelentingly grew.
Ttiring!
A Masterpiece! The Remarkable Items Tower was completed.
Its status does not live up what was attempted and the piece will remain unknown.
With great craftsmanship, the tower height reached an excess of 20 meters.
The concept of creating something through the accumulation of goods is a fresh idea but Artistic Value is hard to obtain.
Artistic Value: 360.
The ‘Excellent Sculptor’ Weed’s work.
Special Option(s):
Those that seen The Remarkable Items Tower will have their Luck increase by 20 throughout the day.
The number of Masterpiece pieces completed until now: 25.
Sculpting skill has been improved.
Fame increases by 3.
Weed did not stop building the tower there. It was still smaller than he had originally envisioned it to be.
‘Gotta lay the basic foundation or else it’ll fall in the future.’
He continued to strengthen its foundation as the tower constantly rises.
Carefully lain where the mats would be placed.
Including empty space intentionally left bare was also considered.
‘Three moons. The brightest light should be… I should take into the changes and the path of each moon.’
Though seemingly easy to start; at this point, it was never easy.
Two days spent building the tower.
The loot’s tower size was overwhelming.
The topmost of the thing was at a staggering 50 meters!
He completely used up all the materials gathered.
“We need more mats. Let’s hunt again.”
He began hunting Unicorns and Pegasus in Todeum’s castles once again.
Every time they did so, the loots obtained made the tower to continually grow bigger and bigger.
Feathers, pieces of broken glass, metal fragments, arrowhead and roots; along with other forms of ingredient materials, the tower was in a state of beauty that was difficult to comprehend.
It was then, the tower exceeded 55 meters.
Ttiring!
A Classic! The Mysterious Tower of Items was completed!
The tower was stacked with at least 300 kinds of goods or more!
The meaning is not known, however, this odd tower does not exist anywhere on the Versailles continent.
It’s hard to deem the massive work with any artistry, but this could be a unique monument.
Even children and mercenaries can’t not hear of Weed’s sculpture.
Artistic Value: 490.

The Mysterious Tower of Items have been included in the Wonders of Todeum.
Ownership of The Mysterious Tower of Items belongs to Weed.
If dismantling the great tower of goods for monetary gain, the acquired Fame will be reduced.
Also, for the residents of Todeum who are art lovers, the backlash from doing so could result in the decrease of Familiarity.
In exchange for creating a Classic sculpture, the previous stat will increase by 1.
Finally a Classic!
Even if it was just a few percentage increase in the drop rate of an item, that in itself was a great effect.
At this point of the hunt, the tower was a desperate necessity.
Weed continues to put in the effort by piling up the loot whenever he could.
With the consistent endeavor in doing so, the tower reached the height of 60 meters. And with that, the purpose of the tower was achieved.
“Fufufu.”
Weed sat on top of the result and smiled.
Today was the last.
‘The trouble was rewarding.’
Building the loot’s tower was rather easier than sculpting a piece.
With just one wrong move while carving, an irreversible scar will remain on the piece for all time.
Still, the tower had to be completed within the certain time so he had to work on it on an hourly basis.
“But still, it’s safely completed.”
Weed just sat and waited for the time which watching the finished product.
Balun, Gorun, and Seyirun.
The three moons peaked through the fog and were approaching the center of the sky.
The moons shine brightly.
Todeum’s unusually bright moonlights shone and everything seems as if it was out in daytime.
The tower bathes in the moonlights’ glow.
Gold and silver, jewels and swords, along with armors were glistening in the moonlights.
Having swept all of Todeum’s artwork and viewing them, the completed loot’s tower was many more times beautiful in the moonlights.
Weed’s breathing became a slight pant.
“Heoeok. So beautiful!”
He was more ecstatic about this piece more so than any thus far.
Who you think he is! This was a towering pile of cash of loots that he could sit on.
A dark gamer’s dream!
Weed was thrilled.
‘All this money. I’m sitting on money.’
The accumulated sea of loot he could swim in, the mountain of loot he could sit on, and even able to take a nap on; Weed happiness was peaked such as the sunrise at the highest point in the sky.
‘Have the relish the money made from this as well.’
Still continuing, the shadow of the tower loomed toward Todeum.
The tower’s changing shadow.
He depended on the positions of the three moons for the transformation of the shadow.
The tower shadow’s shape was becoming more and more evidently specific.
Ttiring!
