Bam-

With a flash, Minhyuk returned to the cave.

When he checked the refrigerator, eight cans of ham had turned into eight magic stones.

There had originally been 12 in the gift set, but he had eaten four.

He had eaten them grilled and also put them in stew,

He personally preferred to eat them grilled… but that wasn’t important right now.

Including the one he had taken out of the hyena’s stomach, Minhyuk now had a total of nine magic stones in his possession.

＜To infuse magic into the armor, place a magic stone on the diagram drawn in the center of the breastplate.＞

A complex pattern of shapes and symbols was drawn on the chest of the armor.

Minhyuk picked up one of the magic stones and brought it over to the diagram.

Sss-

The stone dissolved into a blue smoke and was absorbed into the armor.

Minhyuk absorbed one more stone into the armor.

Then the automatic repair function began to operate.

Bam-

Light radiated from the entire armor, and the torn leather was restored and became taut again.

The worn and dented metal plates were also restored as if they were new.

The automatic repair function also included a purification function.

The old dirt and dust that had been on the surface of the armor was cleanly removed.

And the skeleton that had been inside the armor was also purified and disappeared.

‘May your soul find peace in a good place. I will use this armor well.’

Minhyuk prayed for the soul of the armor’s original owner.

Swoosh-

The light subsided, revealing the fully restored armor.

The lizard skin that protected against flames emitted a faint rainbow hue.

The iron plates made from Dwarven ingots also shone with a luxurious golden light.

Overall, the colors were splendid, and the design perfectly suited Minhyuk’s taste.

He couldn’t help but want to wear it.

＜More magic power is needed to use the automatic detach/attach function.＞

＜More magic power is needed to increase agility when worn.＞

Only the repair was completed with the two orbs’ worth of magic power; more was needed to use the other magical functions.

Minhyuk absorbed three more orbs into the armor.

＜Magic power 30% charged.＞

He had used five orbs so far, leaving him with four.

Minhyuk absorbed the remaining three orbs into the armor, leaving only one for emergencies.

＜Magic power 60% charged.＞

He even threw in the canned ham he had been saving.

Canned ham was a luxury to Minhyuk, who even hesitated to buy eggs.

However, he would be earning a lot of money in the future, so he shouldn’t let a few cans of food bother him.

In any case, the repairs were done, and he had charged it with as much magic power as possible. All that was left was to wear it.

He had a rough idea of how to put on the armor.

Minhyuk brought his hand to the armor.

And said in a small voice.

“Equip.”

Clank-

The armor disassembled into several pieces, then flew towards Minhyuk and attached itself to his body.

Minhyuk spread his arms and simply accepted it.

The attached pieces began to connect with each other.

They connected with tight seams, leaving no gaps.

Like that, the armor was perfectly equipped from helmet to boots, without a single opening.

‘Can this even get wet?’

Minhyuk moved his arms, legs, and waist.

It was incredibly comfortable to move in.

It felt as if he wasn’t wearing anything at all.

That was because the magic effect that increased agility was working.

Swish-

He swung the dagger.

The speed at which he swung the blade had definitely increased.

It wasn’t several times faster, but it felt like it had increased by about 20 to 30%.

With both increased defense and speed, he would be able to fight on a completely different level than before.

Wearing magical armor and wielding a Dwarven dagger, there was nothing in the world to fear.

‘Just you wait, you little duckling!’

I wanted to go outside the cave right away and hunt the Giant Duck, but there was something I had to do first.

There was something lying on the floor over there.

It was a backpack that had completely rotted and become rags.

That backpack was probably also an item that the original owner of the armor had in their possession.

It wasn’t a backpack that had a magic effect like automatic repair granted to it.

What Minhyuk was interested in was the item inside the backpack.

＜Potion Recipe＞

-Pink high-grade potion recipe.

＜Potion Recipe＞

-Green high-grade potion recipe

There was a potion recipe inside the backpack.

Minhyuk took out the two stone tablets that were inside the backpack.

Each of the stone tablets had the pink high-grade and green high-grade potion recipes written on them.

He read the pink high-grade potion recipe among them.

1. Put the root of the Rainbow Indong vine into a Karipa and grind it into a powder.

2. Mix the powder obtained in 1 with 3 pons of Deris in a 1:1 ratio.

3. Mix the powder obtained in 2 with 4 pons of Pelin mustard tree sap using the Korme method.

4. Take the dough obtained in 3… .

Hmm-

I could read it, but I couldn’t tell exactly what it was about.

‘Pons’ is like a unit, but I don’t know how much it is,

and Rainbow Indong vine is like a herb, but I have no idea what Karipa is, what Deris is, or what the Korme method is.

But I took the stone tablets with me for now.

‘Let’s go now.’

It was really time to go outside the cave.

Minhyuk moved to the entrance of the cave at a fast pace.

Gulp-

He drank the potion that increased his movement speed.

And he quickly went outside the cave.

There was a Giant Duck over there.

It was running wild, angry that it had lost sight of Minhyuk.

Kyaaak-

It let out a shriek when it saw Minhyuk.

Fwoosh-

Flames spewed out of its mouth.

Minhyuk dodged the fire and intentionally let one of his arms get hit by the flames.

He only felt a little heat, it wasn’t particularly hot.

Its flame-blocking performance was amazing.

It was incredibly thin compared to the fire-resistant suits that firefighters wear, but how could it have such performance?

Perhaps the secret lay in the leather of the lizard that inhabited the volcanic zone.

Whizz-

The duck flapped its wings and scattered feathers.

Dozens of razor-sharp feathers flew towards Minhyuk.

Clang, clang, clang-

The feathers hit the metal plates of his armor and bounced off.

‘Alright!’

Covered in armor that could block flames and feathers, he no longer needed to fear the Giant Duck.

‘You’re done for!’

Minhyuk raised his sword and charged at the Giant Duck.

It frantically breathed fire and scattered feathers, but he ignored them and pushed forward.

Clack-

As he got closer, it began pecking at him with its beak.

The giant beak, harder than steel, aimed for Minhyuk’s head and pecked repeatedly from the sky.

Minhyuk nimbly dodged the beak attacks.

Thanks to the armor that increased his agility and the yellow potion that boosted his movement speed, it wasn’t difficult.

Minhyuk dodged its attacks and approached its webbed feet.

He stepped on the webbed foot and swung his sword at its ankle.

Clack-

Screech-

Red blood spurted from the severed ankle.

However, the ankle was so thick that it wasn’t completely severed.

Clack-

Clack, clack-

He slashed the same spot three more times.

Then, its ankle was completely severed.

The Giant Duck thrashed in pain.

Minhyuk immediately ran towards its other leg.

It thrashed violently, making it difficult to get on its webbed foot.

However, after a few failed attempts, he managed to get on and swung his dagger at its remaining ankle.

Clack-

Clack, clack-

With three swings, he severed its ankle.

The Giant Duck, having lost both legs, collapsed to the ground.

Thud-

The ground shook as its massive body fell.

Minhyuk ran to its head.

And plunged his dagger deep into its skull.

As it was such a large creature, it didn’t die instantly.

Only after stabbing it several times did it finally go limp and stop moving.

＜You have slain the Giant Duck. As a reward, you have earned 3 minutes of Return Time.＞

He finally succeeded in hunting the duck.

It was a moment when he deeply realized the importance of equipment like armor.

Information about the giant duck’s chest area appeared before Min-hyuk’s eyes.

＜Large Lower-Grade Magic Orb＞

– A large orb concentrated with magic power.

– The orb can be used to infuse magic tools with magic power.

Min-hyuk dismantled the monster’s chest area and took out the orb.

As large as the monster was, the size of the magic orb was also enormous.

It seemed to be about 60 to 70 cm in diameter.

He couldn’t put something this big in the refrigerator.

‘What should I do with this?’

Since it was a smooth sphere, it was also difficult to carry it to the castle.

‘Should I hide it somewhere nearby?’

Whether it was the cave he was in earlier or somewhere else, he could hide the orb well and later, when his inventory capacity increased, he could put it in the refrigerator to check what it would transform into.

However,

＜Magic orbs are absorbed by nature and disappear over time.＞

If a magic orb taken out of a monster’s body was left alone for a long time, it would disappear.

Even if he hid it, it would already be gone when he came back to find it later.

In that case, there was only one way left to deal with it.

‘Let’s charge the armor.’

Min-hyuk touched the diagram drawn on the cuirass with the magic orb.

Ssskuk-

The orb scattered into a light blue smoke and was absorbed into the armor.

＜Magic power is 100% charged.＞

Judging from the size of the orb, it seemed like the amount of concentrated magic power would be considerable.

However, it disappeared neatly after filling the armor with magic power.

The amount of magic power could be less than he thought, or it could be that regardless of the target’s magic power saturation level, it would disappear unconditionally after one use.

Min-hyuk looked towards the depths of the forest.

He was a little scared to think about what might pop out if he went deeper.

When he first stepped into the forest from the swamp earlier, he was full of courage.

However, after facing new monsters for the first time, he felt the need to be careful.

If he were to encounter a monster that could kill him with a single blow, even a high-level recovery potion would be useless.

No matter what, there was one thing he should never forget.

If he died in this world, he would die in reality as well.

‘Let’s go back.’

Min-hyuk turned towards the castle.

.

.

.

He arrived at the swamp.

On the way back, he hunted the wolves and hyenas that attacked him.

＜Remaining Return Time: 46 minutes 30 seconds＞

He looked around the swamp, but he couldn’t see any of the vipers that used to be there.

It seemed like they were either all dead or had run away from Minhyuk.

In any case, today’s hunting was over.

The sun was setting.

He had promised the General that he would take swordsmanship lessons in the evening.

Splash, splash-

Minhyuk crossed the swamp.

No water got into his armor.

‘So it’s waterproof too!’

His mood instantly improved.

Minhyuk walked along the main road after passing through the city gate.

As he passed by Puppy Square, he saw the sign for an alchemy shop.

＜Luna’s Alchemy Shop.＞

He thought about the advanced potion recipe that he had gotten today.

Minhyuk had no basic knowledge of alchemy, so he couldn’t make potions even if he had the recipe.

If he showed the stone tablet to an alchemist, they would be able to make the advanced potion for him.

Then he could put the advanced potion in the refrigerator and check what it turned into so that he could get more of it.

He could use some of the potions that he got and sell the rest for gold.

However, there was one big problem with doing things that way.

The alchemist who learned the recipe would also be able to make the advanced potion over and over again.

‘That means I’ll have some competition.’

To put it simply, the moment he told the alchemist the recipe, the monopoly on the advanced potion that Minhyuk was dreaming of would be gone.

Hmm-

Minhyuk thought about it for a moment.

Then he made a decision.

‘I can’t give up on the monopoly.’

Minhyuk went into the alchemy shop.

The shop owner, Luna, smiled broadly and greeted Minhyuk.

“Oh my! The handsome man is back? What brings you here today?”

Minhyuk spoke in a crisp voice.

“I’d like to learn alchemy, teacher.”

He had already decided that he wouldn’t give it to anyone else.

He would learn alchemy and make the advanced potion himself.
