Chapter 913_Leveling Up Through Eating

Chapter 913

 Manager Kim Dae-Il was one of the pioneer members of Joy Co. Ltd., who made Athenae what it was. He was one of the few people who could insist on and push his opinion regarding Athenae to his boss, President Kang Taehoon. He often shed and argued with the man. But Dae-Il knew that President Kang Taehoon was also just a human being. There were also times when he agreed with the mans opinion.

 Although Dae-Il often argued with the president, this did not mean he hated him. For the first time in a long while, Manager Kim Dae-Il felt warmth gushing in his chest.

 Hes cool. He deserves it. We have to acknowledge that fact.

 Bathump, bathump, bathump

 Thats the only thing we can do for yer Minhyuk.

 The remodeled armor set appeared on the monitor in front of them while yer Minhyuk, who had worked hard for fifteen days, continued to y on the side. Manager Kim Dae-Il, who mored for a quick patch because of a suspected bnce break, could no longer insist on it.

 Is there someone that can still curse and mock a yer like that?

 Many were already aware of how hardworking yer Minhyuk was. However, his effort and willingness to work were so great that everyone here could only stare at the screen in admiration.

 Im a bit jealous. Is there any other young man out there that has this much passion and could work this hard?

 At this moment, Manager Kim Dae-Il realized that they genuinely could not put a heavier restriction on yer Minhyuks artifacts. Even so, they still had a huge problem to deal with.

 When ites to high rankers, especially in yer Minhyuks case, everything bes a big deal. Even a haircut that chops off two centimeters of their hair could also be a huge issue when ites to them.

 This was the truth. So, if the armor set that yer Minhyuk was wearing changed, then yers andizens would continuously talk about his armor and artifacts. And it would grow worse once Minhyuk disyed a fantastic performance using that armor.

 Because of that, the other yers will point fingers again. They will criticize both yer Minhyuk and us for another bnce break because yer Minhyuk obtained a set of outstanding armor.

 Manager Kim Dae-Il had now switched positions. He now wanted to protect Minhyuk from maliciousments. That was why he brought these words to the table.

 Once he disyed the amazing power of his armor, the malicious rumors about Ilhwa Group and Joy Co. Ltd. striking a deal to give him artifacts would spread once againand they would definitely spread fiercer than ever.

 Everyone should put their heads together and think of a way to deal with this matter.

 Then, President Kang Taehoon said, Is anyone here unhappy about yer Minhyuk obtaining that artifact?

 Kang Taehoon looked at the people, who had been shouting with veins popping on their necks just an hour earlier. These people immediately shut their mouths, which prompted a small smile on his face.

 After watching the video, most people here thought it was only reasonable. In fact, some even thought Minhyuk was qualified to receive better rewards for his work.

 Lets make a Ztube video after discussing this with yer Minhyuk.

 ...!

 Manager Kim Dae-Ils eyes grew wide. Even the other executives looked at Kang Taehoon in shock.

 If were doing it like that, lets use the title The Burden an Emperor Carries. Then, edit a shortened version of Minhyuk swinging the pickaxe for fifteen days and add it to the video.

 Kim Dae-Il was in awe.

 The emperor standing at the highest position and why the emperor has reached that point

 The executives looked at President Kang Taehoon in awe, who devised such a n quickly.

 Then, Manager Kim Dae-Il said, The impact this video will bring will be huge.

 ***

 Minhyuk stayed by Nekks side for a few days.

 Amazing. This was Minhyuks honest impression of the man.

 He had also cooked several dishes using unique God-grade ingredients apanied by danger. He had cooked in blistering heat and had been stabbed by hundreds of des while cooking. However, he could only endure because he was taking advantage of a loophole of some sort. Yes, Minhyuk was mainly able to endure because he was a yer. Minhyuk felt strange, but there was not much pain during the process. But Nekks situation was different. He knew that Nekk must be feeling intense pain right here and now.

 One day, two days, three days, four days had passed. But Nekk, whose sweat covered his entire body, continued to swing the hammer in his handsthe fifth day, sixth, seventh, then eighth day passed. From how Nekks muscles spasmed and strained, anyone could see that he was nearing his limit.

 Crackle!

 Not long after, a huge pir of zing me, a testament to Nekk''s passion, effort, and tenacity, shot to the sky before retreating and seeping into the artifacts he was working on. When the mes gradually disappeared, a set of armor appeared, reflecting the color of the ck mes that had erupted earlier.

 [Nekk has gone beyond his limits and sessfully created a masterpiece among all of the masterpieces he has created before!]

 [Only the owner of the new armor set can bestow a name upon it!]

 [The armor is of Transcendental Rank!]

 [The boots are of Transcendental Rank!]

 [The leg gaiters are of Transcendental Rank!]

 Minhyuk smiled when he saw the armor set that Nekk created.

 Not long after, the Forges Hellfire disappeared into nothingnessit was as if it had never appeared in the first ce. Once the mespletely disappeared, Nekk beckoned Minhyuk. Minhyuk entered the smithy and looked at the newly born silver armor set.

 Its amazing.

 This was Minhyuks first impression. Minhyuk turned to look at Nekk. When he saw the man nod along, he went ahead and named the armor and the other artifacts that belonged to the set. Only after he finished naming the set would he check the details.

 [You have named the armor Transcendentals Armor!]

 [You have named the boots Transcendentals Boots!]

 [You have named the leg gaiters Transcendentals Leg Gaiters!]

 These artifacts contained the power of Transcendental Nekk. Furthermore, none of the yers had a transcendental rank artifact yet, so Minhyuk thought it was only right to name this set Transcendentals Armor Set.

 [You can now check the details and information of the Transcendentals Armor Set.]

 But there was one thing that caught Minhyuks attention.

 The Stars Armor Set can only be equipped at Level 700.

 The ughterers Armor was also excellent. This meant that this problem could not be easily dealt with.

 From what I heard, lowering an artifacts requirements and restrictions is almost impossible even among the best and the greatest cksmiths.

 Of course, it was possible. However, the artifact''s ability would also be significantly lowered. Most of the time, low-rank artifacts would be produced using suitable materials. So, cksmiths could often create artifacts without even touching the restrictions and requirements.

 I know what youre worried about, Nekk said, crossing his arms and smiling smugly.

 Alright, Ill go and check it first. Minhyuk excitedly checked the artifacts details.

 Transforms to ck Dragon Armor

 Passive Skill: ughterers Absorption

 Passive Skill: Asuras Shield

 Description: The Transcendentals Armor is reborn by the cksmith Transcendental Nekk. It is tough and solid yet as light as cloth. It does not limit the body''s movements upon equipment.

 The Transcendentals Armors defensive power was slightly lower than that of the ughterers Armor. However, this armor carried all of the advantages of the ughterers Armor and the Stars Armor Set and discarded all unnecessary parts.

 Its level requirement had dropped to Level 600. Did that mean that Nekk sacrificed some of the artifacts performance so he could lower the level requirement and allow him to equip it right away?

 But Im already delighted with it.

 Not to mention how heavy the armor set was, the boots, leg gaiters, and armor thatprised it would also restrict the movements of the one who equipped it. Minhyuk had not expected to see any particr changes to the Transcendentals Armor.

 Theres also the artifacts set effects.

 At that moment, Minhyuk saw something that piqued his curiosity.

 ck Dragon Armor?

 You havent checked it yet?

 Eh? Minhyuk looked at Nekk in confusion.

 Theres no way that those excellent materials will weaken just by lowering the restrictions and requirements, you know?

 Minhyuk checked the ck Dragon Armor with a curious look on his face.

 (ck Dragon Armor)

 Rank: Transcendental

 Requirements: The One that Received Ruffisos Recognition. Level 620 or higher.

 Durability: /

 Defensive Power: 2,654

 The armor is as light as a cloth that weighs 50 grams.

 Armor can only be equipped for five minutes.

 Passive Skill: ughterers Absorption

 Passive Skill: Asuras Shield

 Passive Skill: The Unapproachable One

 Active Skill: Transcendence

 Wh- what is this?

 Minhyuk was very shocked.

 There are two sets of detailed information in one armor?

 In other words, the armor was divided into two. It contained both the Transcendentals Armor and the ck Dragon Armor.

 Come on. Say, ck Dragon Armor.

 ck Dragon Armor.

 [The Transcendentals Armor has transformed into the ck Dragon Armor!]

 Creak, creak, creak!

 ck feathers appeared, starting from the back of Minhyuks hands, before covering his entire body. The feathers soon changed and turned into hard te armor that covered everything beneath Minhyuks neck. To be honest, Minhyuk found the ck Dragon Armor, which waspletely ck, to be very cool.

 [You have equipped the ck Dragon Armor!]

 [You can only equip the armor for five minutes!]

 It looked like he was wearing apletely different set of armor. Of course, it was based on the Transcendentals Armor, but it was much superior to the main armor. The passive skill The Unapproachable One was enough to put the armor on a pedestal. Although the skill only had an 8% chance of being triggered when being attacked by the enemy, it could increase ones evasion rate by nearly five times.

 There was also the active skill Transcendence, which allowed the ck Dragon Armor to take a bit and umte the damage from the enemies. Once a set amount was absorbed, it would enable the one that equipped the armor to use the buff ability, Transcendence.

 In addition, ck Dragon Armor could increase ones stats, attack, and defensive power.

 Although the level requirement has been lowered, the power of the materials wasn''t lowered.

 Minhyuk realized how amazing the thinking of the cksmith named Nekk was. After all, who would even think ofbining two armors in one, right?!

 He quickly checked the information on the boots and leg gaiters. Unfortunately, it seemed like the main focus was on the armor. But it did not matter. The real power of the Transcendentals Armory in the effects when the set was equipped. Minhyuk quickly wore the boots and gaiters.

 [You have equipped the Transcendentals Armor Set!]

 [You will now receive the set effects of the Transcendentals Armor Set!]

 (When the Transcendentals Armor Set is Equipped.)

 Set Effects:

 Your CHA will increase by 5,000

 All of your defensive power will increase by 1,100.

 All of your stats will increase by 12%.

 Active Skill: The One that Walks the Path of the Stars

 All the armor, including the cape, helmet, and currently equipped essories, will only weigh 10 grams.

 The durability of all the artifacts you equipped will be set to .

 Wow

 Minhyuk was speechless at how crazy the effects of the artifact set were.

 Its just as heavy as an epic-rank armor?

 One could not equip two armor pieces at once, just like one could not wear two nes at once. However, this armor set''s artifact effect was extremely overpowered, to the point that one would feel as if they were wearing another set of armor.

 I want to test it out right away.

 Yes. Minhyuk wanted to test this artifacts cheat-like and overpowered effects.

 ***

 At the same time.

 A yer, who was carrying a bloodied man behind him, was riding desperately toward the Beyond the Heavens Empire.

 The Louvard Kingdom, the Caino Kingdom, the Kailde Empire, and even the Eivelis Empire have all rejected my request.

 Carron was a Level 500 yer who belonged to the Roarke Kingdom. Although he might be a fairly high-level yer among ordinary yers, he also had another identity. He was the Godly Editor Jackson, who made a name for himself in Ztube.

 Although Carron was a yer, he loved the Roarke Kingdom deeply. But the kingdom was now on the verge of copse, so he was running like this for them. And the bloodied man riding behind him? He was none other than the kingdoms first prince, Beynan.

 He had heard plenty of stories from the king of the Roarke Kingdom before.

 I had lent some help to the Beyond the Heavens Empire when they had just founded their nation and were still suffering from financial difficulties. It was nothing but a small help. I dont know if he remembers it. Hoho.

 A benevolent ruler; that was who the king he had always served was.

 All the kingdoms and empires had turned down the copsing Roarke Kingdoms request for help. Carron, who was running toward the first empire built by a yer, finally caught sight of the walls of the Beyond the Heavens Empire. They were Roarke Kingdoms final hope.
