I Became A Mechanic - Chapter 124: Humanoid (2)
Jun-woo moved to the trading room.
Rudin got up from sitting and smiled brightly.
“Sorry to keep you waiting.”
“I didn’t wait too long.”
“Thank you for your understanding. Sit.”
“Yeah.”
The two sat facing each other and opened the trading window.
Jun-woo raised the ring and spoke.
“Check it out slowly, and there will be no other options than the notice.”
“The price is not wrong for a single item. I guess you haven’t used it.”
“It doesn’t suit me.”
“You seem to have few skills. This is a pretty well-attached ring.”
The Legendary Helda’s Ring was an option that wizards would love.
“Since it’s a production job, there’s something about it.”
“Then I’ll give you gold.”
“You worked hard to come so that you can cut down about 5,000.”
“No, it’s only natural for people who live there to come.”
The value of the item was 2.531 trillion won.
Rudin raised that amount precisely.
“You can cut it…, thank you anyway.”
“If you cut it, it’s disrespectful to a legendary item.”
The deal was concluded and gold, and the ring went back and forth.
Rudin looked at his gloved hands and smiled contentedly.
“Until the ring expires, I will use it well.”
“Thank you for the transaction.”
Rudin looked at Jun-woo and spat out the words as if wondering.
“But there was a strange person on the way.”
It looked like he was talking about Lloyd.
“Well…, sorry. Whatever excuse he… … .”
“At first glance, he recognized that I was a homunculus. Oddly enough, he didn’t feel any warmth. Is he a homunculus?”
“Yeah, I just made it today… ….”
“It’s a little bit mutable. A homunculus without warmth… Anyway, everything else is fine, but please don’t tell me I’m a homunculus because I think I will create some distance from people when I say homunculus.”
“I’ll tell you about that part.”
“Thank you. Lastly, may I ask you for a picture today?”
“Yeah, what… ….”
Rudin smiled, took off his gloves, showed Helda’s ring on his hand, and drew a V.
“Is it proof of purchase, OK?”
“Of course, it is.”
“OK then, cheese.”
Jun-woo smiled awkwardly, and Rudin, who took the picture, smiled brightly.
“The last photo I posted was very well received, but I also bought the ring this time, so it must be even hotter.”
“Ha-ha… ….”
“It’s a lot of fun to communicate with people. Lewis also recommends it. I’ll click the like button.”
“Thank you for that… ….”
Rudin smiled.
“Anyway, thank you for your valuable time. I’ll just go and see.”
“Yes, please go back safely.”
Rudin bowed his head lightly with a smile and went out of the trading room.
Rudin, who made eye contact with Lloyd standing at the counter, showed a smile and left the building.
Lloyd looked at Rudin as Nagai, and Sohyun Jung, who was working as an Aegis building detector, looked at Rudin with curious eyes.
Lloyd shook his head and tried to walk outside, but Jung So-Hyun blocked the way in front of him.
Jung So-Hyun looked at Lloyd with a puzzled face and spoke.
“Perhaps…, Master?”
“Oh, great sensing ability, I didn’t even radiate mana, but I’ll check it out.”
The energy of Mana was the same, but the voice was completely different.
He was also different in height; overall, he was a dwarf Lloyd than Jun-woo.
“Who…, please?”
“Is it like Jun-woo Lee’s right arm? No, I want to hit the head.”
“Are you a homunculus?”
“Should I do that, then? Thank you.”
Lloyd passed Jung So-Hyun and walked outside.
The guard I met earlier approached Lloyd and said cautiously.
“I’m sorry earlier. I don’t know… ….”
“This can happen.”
“Ha-ha…, where are you going out?”
“Yeah, I’ll go. They are well guarded.”
“Yes, go!”
Another security guard came up to the side of the guard, who greeted him in a standing posture and asked as if he was puzzled.
“Who is that person?”
“I don’t know either. Hearing through an interpreter, the Master made him, that man.”
At that, the man was startled.
“Then, you mean homunculus, right? You recently bought a skill book. Was it because of him?”
“It might be… Let’s get on to the enlistment because the Master hasn’t announced it yet.”
“Well then…, even if not, the homunculus is unique.”
“Right… ….”
When Lloyd returned from walking, the two looked at Lloyd nervously and smiled awkwardly.
“Ha-ha… ….”
“Do you have any gold?”
“Gold…, you mean?”
“Yeah, I’ll give it to you later.”
“How much can I give you?”
“Give me in moderation, in moderation.”
“Ah yes… ….”
The guard carefully pulled out 500,000 gold and held it out.
“More…, do you need it?”
“No, this will be fine. Thanks.”
Leaving behind the bewildered guards, Lloyd walked outside.
Lloyd’s eyes, outside and walking into the city center, moved from side to side without stopping for a moment.
Seeing plastic coffee cups in the hands of people walking by and drinking coffee inside the cafe, Lloyd entered the restaurant.
Reading the menu and looking at the people ordering, Lloyd followed it.
“A glass of iced Americano.”
After paying the bill and receiving coffee, Lloyd walked outside, sipping it.
When the contents were empty, Lloyd put the transparent cup down next to the railing where the translucent cup was placed and went in a direction crowded with people.
In Macheon Street, where the Aegis Guild was located and a huge commercial area developed, countless people walked around.
As it was getting dark, Lloyd entered the cafe, sipping coffee and looking outside.
In the center of the crowd, Yoshimura and a member of the Aegis guild were walking together.
Lloyd put his finger on the window and spit out some mana.
Then Yoshimura’s head turned to Lloyd.
“Anyone, you know?”
“You are the master.”
“To?”
“Is not it? I have a small face and quite narrow shoulders.”
“No matter how you look at it, it doesn’t seem like it, Hyung?”
“The mana you feel is very similar.”
Lloyd smiled, and Yoshimura entered the cafe.
“It’s Yoshimura! Wow.”
The people inside the cafe recognized Yoshimura and exclaimed with certain exclamations.
Yoshimura approached Lloyd and asked in Japanese.
“Who are you, you?”
“It’s Lloyd. Master made me.”
“… when?”
“Today.”
“What are you doing here?”
“Caliber.”
Lloyd got up and walked out of the cafe, and Yoshimura followed.
“Can you go around?”
“Sure. Don’t follow me, Yoshimura.”
Yoshimura turned his back and looked at Lloyd as he walked, then picked up his smartphone and dialed the phone.
When Jun-woo did not receive it, Yoshimura left a text message.
[Yoshimura: There is a guy named Lloyd wandering around Macheon Street.]
An hour later, Jun-woo, working in the underground workshop, checked the text.
When we went upstairs to Lloyd’s room, he couldn’t see Lloyd.
‘… … .’
The design he had drawn was also laid out on the desk as if he had not finished it.
Jun-woo looked at the blueprint.
It was similar to a mechanical golem, but it was a machine that resembled a human in that it had a slimmer waist than a golem.
It seemed that he could draw blueprints.
But he felt like he wasn’t listening.
It’s because he went out on his own twice.
Jun-woo picked up his smartphone and dialed Yoshimura.
When he answered the phone, Jun-woo said straight away.
“What about Lloyd?”
“I don’t know, and I’m going to walk around alone. Are you OK? Homunculus needs education, right?”
“Find one.”
“Do you have any pictures? Call the kids.”
“No, there is not. You have striking white hair.”
“OK. I’ll call a few people and find them.”
When Jun-woo hung up the phone and came out, he saw Lloyd bringing two cups of coffee in a package.
Lloyd said while holding a coffee.
“People love this. Have a drink, Master.”
“Where are you going?”
“I came to see the world.”
“I asked you to tell me before you left.”
Lloyd responded to Jun-woo’s rebuke with a slightly smiling face.
“I didn’t want to bother you because you went to the underground workshop. I was going to go out for a while, but it took quite a while. Sorry. From now on, I will report it and leave.”
Jun-woo looked at Lloyd and let out a shallow sigh.
“Yes…, from now on, let’s talk and leave. If you want to go out.”
“Yeah! Master, have a drink. It tastes fine.”
Jun-woo took the coffee Lloyd gave him and sat down on the sofa.
Lloyd also sat down next to him, sipping coffee.
“So, how does it feel to see the world?”
“It was fun in many ways. I feel like I want to go again. Shall we go together next time?”
“No, I don’t… …. Are you aware of the things you shouldn’t do more than that?”
“For example, murder?”
“Yes.”
“Don’t worry. I’ll never kill anyone unless it’s a permitted murder, and I won’t betray the Master’s will.”
“Yes?”
“And I do not kill. My machine will kill you.”
Jun-woo asked while thinking of the blueprint.
“When the blueprint is complete, can I use it too?”
“No, the blueprints are proprietary.”
“Saying like this, but you are my summoner, aren’t you? But is that still the case?”
“It’s a summons, but it’s individual. Just because you hunt with the homunculus the master made doesn’t mean the master doesn’t eat all the items.”
“Then can I learn what you know?”
“It’s not that I don’t have great knowledge. It’s the kind of knowledge that the Master will create. But it is an inspiration if I say something special about me.”
“Inspiration?”
“Blacksmiths suddenly create recipes by skill, right? It’s similar to that, and one day I suddenly have a mechanical blueprint created by a skill.”
“Ah…, do you have that skill?”
“Yes, I will tell you when it is created.”
“Yes…, So what are you drawing now?”
“It’s an ordinary mechanical golem at an epic level because I also have blueprint crafting skills, and they asked me to make one.”
“Ah…, yes, make it slow. I think it will be useful.”
“Is this for war?”
“Yes? No, the workshop.”
“Workplace?”
Jun-woo briefly informed Lloyd about the workshop in the plaza of the land he envisioned.
“I want to visit.”
“See you next time.”
“Yes, please take me.”
Jun-woo asked as he put down the coffee container he had finished eating.
“Do you have any memories?”
“My memory is from today.”
“I see… How do you want to be in the future?”
“What Master wants to do is what I want to do.”
“Thank you… …. And…, Well…, Do you need any education?”
Leon and Eumeria received education from Jeong Hye-Yeon.
Morals, etiquette, history, math, etc.
“You can do that yourself.”
“Yes…, OK. I’ll go in to draw some blueprints. Anyway, do what you want to do. If you don’t want to draw a design, you don’t have to draw it.”
It was Lloyd who drew blueprints twice.
Although he made it himself, Jun-woo had no intention of forcing anything on his personality.
“Thank you for your understanding. Master, then I’ll take a look at something called TV.”
“Yes… ….”
Jun-woo got up from the sofa, and Lloyd picked up the remote control on the table.
– beep
After a long time, the TV sound resounded where Jun-woo was staying, and Jun-woo looked at Lloyd for a moment and went into the room.
‘Are you learning? … .’
It felt like a strange creature had arisen.
