Reversing Life With Legendary Skills! - Chapter 23

Legendary grade weapons.

There are only four of them known around the world.

There may be more hidden, but it certainly wouldn’t exceed ten.

One of such legendary weapons was in Jin-woo’s hand.

He didn’t feel this way about Mr. Octopus’ Muramasa.

The Muramasa made him feel scared because it felt like he didn’t have enough power to wield it.

But this one…

The Dragon Blade.

As he squeezed it, he didn’t feel any fear.

Rather, he felt as if its power was in his hands.

On top of the 1,070 physical attack power, it was also increased by 570 with the power stat.

The max stats given by an average hero-grade weapon do not exceed 1,000.

It was almost fraudulent.

It was clear that he can deal insane damage with it.

Can I kill a real dragon with this in just one blow? He thought.

It was a realistic possibility.

“You can use this as soon as possible,” said the rat.

“Leave all the dragon bones here. I’ll use them to make a masterpiece.”

The creature who looked like a rat is now a master in Jin-woo’s eyes.

[There is not much time left.]

The swordsman reminded him. Jin-woo checked the remaining time.

[32 seconds]

Getting a sword was taking too much time.

“I will use it well!” he told the rat.

“When you come next time, stop by here again.”

“Yes!”

They said goodbye to the rat and went back to the octopus’ shop.

Jin-woo hastily scanned the skill cards.

He sorted through the pile displayed on the board and found five legendary cards.

[No time to check them!]

The swordsman was rushing him.

[17 seconds]

They are running out of time.

Mr. Octopus picked up one of the cards.

“If you learn this one, it will be useful someday.”

[15 seconds]

“Thank you!” Jin-woo trusted the octopus.

“Learn the skill!”

[Skill: You learned Infinity Mana.]

[You can use Infinity Mana.]

Infinity Mana?

He will check its description later.

He opened the inventory and saved the admission ticket.

Then, he took out the gift he had prepared.

“Mr. Octopus! Here’s a gift!”

“Oh? A gift?”

[7 seconds]

“I will come again next time!”

Jin-woo bowed to the confused octopus and held his return ball.

[5 seconds]

“Okay. See you next time.”

Clink-!

He gripped the ball tight, and it broke effortlessly.

The light emitted from the ball wrapped Jin-woo and the swordsman.

Soon, the light disappeared, leaving only the octopus standing holding a bag.

The rat approached the octopus.

“Are they gone?”

“Uh, yes.”

“But what is that?”

“He said it was a gift?”

“Dried seashells?”

Dried seashells were contained in a transparent bag.

Mr. Octopus put one of his legs in, took a piece, and put it on his mouth.

“It’s delicious. do you want to eat?”

“No, I’m done. Eat a lot.”

The rat disappeared back into his forge with a ridiculous expression on his face.

Mr. Octopus limped back to his stall.

“It’s really good.”

[Skill: Infinity Mana]

[Rating: Legendary]

[Obtains infinite mana.]

[Effect: You can use skills without consuming mana for 5 minutes. Cool down is 24 hours.]

He got some sense of it from the name.

Infinity Mana.

Mana limit disappears for 5 minutes.

In a way, it was unbelievable.

The lack of limitation means he can use the skills indefinitely within the 5-minute period.

Can I use the Red Moon indefinitely, then?

[Stupid bastard. Does the Red Moon only use mana?]

The swordsman scolded him.

Hey… you’re right.

The Red Moon contained everything.

It’s what makes it strong.

Mana, stamina, mental power, inner air.

But why is this skill a legendary grade?

[There must be a reason for that.]

Jin-woo nodded. There must be a reason why the octopus recommended it to him.

Tuk-tuk!

He heard someone knocking.

When he opened the door, it was Sun-woo.

“Huh? What’s up?

“Oh? You’re here? When did you arrive?”

“Just now, why?”

“Ah! Right. Have you heard the news?”

Jin-woo looked puzzled and shook his head.

Then, Sun-woo showed him his smartphone where the news was displayed.

[No contact from the Noblesse Guild at Dragon’s Nest!]

The Noblesse Guild disappeared?

* * *

The world turned over.

The Noblesse Guild’s disappearance attracted attention from all over the world.

The British government is said to have requested many guilds to help search for the Noblesse Guild.

That day, the news was all about the Noblesse Guild.

Ten years ago, dungeons began appearing.

Historians have called the first five years as ‘transition’.

The world was not yet able to cope with the change.

The government was slow, and the public spent day after day in danger and chaos.

Then, progress came.

Players soon appeared to handle the problem.

Risks existed, but they were now within control.

Accidents occurred to some extent.

But none as large as this.

The Noblesse Guild ranked 21st in the world rankings.

It is in the Top 3 in Europe.

Most of all, it had a close relationship with the British government.

The disappearance of an entire guild had no precedent.

So, people were anxious.

They were worried that the days of chaos and danger will be upon them again.

Other guilds moved in a hurry, calculating their own profits and losses that could result from this loss.

The Taewang Guild was no different.

Park Tae-sung would have a busy day full of meetings.

So, why did he call me? Jin-woo thought as he entered the president’s office.

“Hello.”

“Welcome. Long time no see. Sit here,” Park Tae-sung gestured him to sit closer.

“Han Yu-ra, please get out for a moment,” the president then said.

“Yes? Ah… Okay.”

She looked a little embarrassed, but the president’s order was clear.

Han Yu-ra bowed slightly and left the office.

“I just wanted to talk to you alone.”

“Oh, yes.” Jin-woo was nervous and didn’t know what to say.

“A formal request came from the British government with regards to the Noblesse Guild. They requested our help to find traces of whether the guild members are still alive, or dead.

“I see.”

It was a tough request.

A level 400 dungeon. Even the Noblesse Guild failed and went missing.

They had no choice but to seek help from higher-ranked guilds.

“We accepted the request.”

“Oh? Already?”

The news went out only three days ago, so Jin-woo was surprised that the coordination has already been made.

“Yes. Because we were commissioned three weeks ago.”

“Ah…”

The British government made it secret.

“I intend to lead the search team myself,” Park Tae-sung declared, “as we need elite members for this mission.”

For Park Tae-sung himself to join, it had great significance.

“I want to include you, Jin-woo, to the search team.”

“Me?”

“Yes.”

Jin-woo thought he couldn’t be more surprised.

It was not within common sense to include a player who was not even level 300 yet in a level 400 dungeon mission.

Park Tae-sung read his thoughts.

“I think you can do more than your level. The Giant Snake and the Dragon battle proved it. Nobody thought you could do it at your level.”

It was an accurate analysis.

“I’m looking forward to you to show the same abilities again.”

“Well…”

Jin-woo couldn’t answer immediately.

It is a level 400 dungeon.

It has never been cleared in history.

Of course, the objective was not to clear it but to search for the Noblesse Guild, but still, it was dangerous.

“Of course, it’s a dangerous request, so I’m going to reward you enough.”

Park Tae-sung opened a cabinet, took out a piece of paper, and gave it to Jin-woo.

“According to the contract we made with the British government, I have the first option of selecting an item if the mission is a success. I will give that option to you.”

First selection.

It was huge.

As it is a level 400 dungeon, the possibility of getting a legendary skill card or weapon was very high.

It sounded like a good offer to concede to.

“Of course, it would depend on the situation. We would be searching, not attacking, so there would certainly be other rewards for you.”

It was an attractive offer.

Park Tae-sung got up and stared at Jin-woo, who seemed to be troubled.

“The search team’s assembly is a week from now. You have until then to decide.”

“Okay.”

Jin-woo nodded.

* * *

Jin-woo bought chicken before going home.

As he left the chicken house, he looked at the package in his hand.

His father brought home chicken like this.

Anytime his father needed to tell his mother something serious, he brought chicken.

I now understand why he thought.

It was a means to lighten the atmosphere when trying to talk about something difficult to say.

“Brother? Oh, you bought chicken!”

“Huh.”

“I’m not sure why, but chicken is exciting.”

“Go, set the table.”

“Okay.”

As Jin-woo entered his room and changed clothes, Sun-woo set the table in front of their TV.

“Let’s eat!”

They each took a chicken leg and bit into it.

They watched a movie while eating.

They haven’t had an evening like this after a long time.

When the movie was halfway done, Jin-woo caught his brother’s attention.

“Sun-woo…”

“Huh?”

He told the truth.

Without adjustment.

Without embellishment.

Sun-woo’s expression was surprisingly calm as he listened to his stories.

It was somewhat surprising.

“Go ahead,” Sun-woo told him after he finished the story with the invitation to the search mission.

“Are you going to be okay here, alone?” Jin-woo asked him again.

“Sure. I’m old enough. Rather, I am more worried about you. I’m afraid you’re going to drag down the high-level players.”

“Shut up! Is your older brother selfish?”

“No. Don’t worry about me. I know you’ve sacrificed for me so far. From now on, do what you want to do.”

His younger brother had strength.

“Thank you,” Jin-woo smiled.

* * *

A week later, Jin-woo stood at London International Airport.

“Hey! What’s with that expression,” Kim Dae-sung approached him.

“It’s my first time abroad.”

“Really? You’ve never even been to Japan or Hong Kong?”

“Yes, this is the first time.”

“Yeah, then you will find it different.”

Jin-woo nodded his head as if he understood Kim Dae-sung.

Han Ji-joon, who was listening, joined in.

“When I was younger, I liked to go around. Don’t hunt too much.”

“Haha, I have to.”

“Anyway, how about a beer tonight for commemoration?”

“Dad! Have you forgotten that this could take a while?”

Han Yu-ra’s cold voice made her father scream in surprise.

Jin-woo couldn’t help but stare at her with amazement.

Yu-ra noticed him and asked, “Why?”

“Nothing. I am just surprised that you are a high-level player.”

He just found out that Yu-ra was a level 311 player herself.

It was surprising.

“Yu-ra hasn’t been hunting a lot these days,” Kim Dae-sung remarked, “but her height doesn’t reflect her power. She was famous enough to get a nickname: Witch of the Thunderbolt.”

“Stop.”

Kim Dae-sung looked down immediately to avoid Yu-ra’s cold eyes.

Kim Dae-sung was the only other non-level 300 player that had been selected for the search team.

His Search ability was valuable.

The group was formed more like a search team than a battle team.

“Shut up and get to work,” Yu-ra commanded.

The three men nodded.

Their group will meet the advance team that was sent here earlier.

* * *

The Taewang Guild entered the Dragon’s Nest, where the Noblesse guild disappeared.

It was an event that attracted attention from all over the world.

The search team was composed of a hundred elite players.

The Dragon’s Nest was a forest with rugged mountains.

“Install the base camp,” Park Tae-sung instructed.

After the camp was quickly installed, he ordered the drone operators to check the surroundings.

Soon, drones soared high in the sky.

Everybody moved in an efficient and systematic manner.

Jin-woo was surprised at the organization of the Taewang guild.

The swordsman agreed.

[They are well-organized.]

Why do you think so?

[Definitely, it’s the leader. His charisma is overwhelming.]

It was very unusual for the swordsman to admire others.

[Oh, look at your ring! Why is it glowing?]

Huh?

Jin-woo immediately checked the ring he obtained from the skeleton dragon.

It was really glowing as the swordsman said.

[Dragon’s Ring]

[Rating: Hero]

[Ring made by processing the Dragon’s Eye.]

[Magical Attack + 312]

[Mana + 450]

[Special Effect: Guides the way to the dragon’s rare.]

The last description changed.
