Legend of Legends 473 Business is Good 3

Right now, he was most curious about Jeffrey and about how Jeffrey was able to control the dark energy within him. The dark energy was a separate thing from mana, but dark energy was still one of the components that made up everything.

The powered people had faced death, but they were all safe now. Junhyuk flew ahead of Jeffrey. He knew Jeffrey had a new power, but he didn't think that would put him in danger.

Jeffrey was now a part of Junhyuk's main plan. He wanted to help Jeffrey. Now that Jeffrey was a hero, if he could help Jeffrey grow, the new hero would become tremendous help.

Jeffrey wasn't on his team in the Dimensional Battlefield, but on Earth, Jeffrey would support him. Junhyuk walked with Jeffrey to Guardians' training facility. When they entered, he noticed that Jeffrey was strange. He was standing still, but the energy around him was erratic.

The energy felt cool to the touch, but also heavy and dark.

Junhyuk stared at Jeffrey with his sword lowered and asked, "What is your new power?"

"I need an opponent to use it."

"Use it on me."

"It'll be dangerous."

Junhyuk chuckled and asked, "Are you worried about me?"

Jeffrey was exuding that strange energy, but he seemed to be in control of his faculties. That was a good thing, but Junhyuk wasn't completely sure about the energy he could feel. That kind of negative energy could take over Jeffrey at any time.

"I'll do it."

Jeffrey decided to use his power. In Junhyuk's mind, his health was full, so even if Jeffrey used his ultimate, he wouldn't die.

While Junhyuk stared at him, Jeffrey triggered his ultimate, and as soon as he did, Junhyuk changed his mind. Jeffrey had summoned twelve spirit monsters. The spirits were so large that they filled his field of view. Aksha's Longsword stretched on its own.

Junhyuk attacked with his mana blade, and the spirits were slashed by his sword.

Puff, puff, puff!

Some spirits did not explode. Those spirits of fast monsters dodged his sword, but those of strong and heavy monsters couldn't do anything.

The attacks created shockwaves, but they weren't the regular ring-shaped shockwaves, so all of the monsters dodged them.

A flying snake wrapped itself around Junhyuk and tightened its grip. Junhyuk teleported, escaping the snake's grip. At the same moment, a Ghost White Tiger appeared behind him. It wasn't one of the spirits summoned by Jeffrey. It was the real thing.

Junhyuk teleported again, appearing behind Jeffrey, who ducked quickly.

Junhyuk wasn't accelerating, but Jeffrey had been fast enough to dodge his sword. He had only been planning to smack Jeffrey with his sword, but now, he wanted a real fight.

"You really are a hero."

Jeffrey retreated and used his other power. All of his subjects went berserk.

The eyes of the Ghost White Tiger and the spirit monsters beamed red, and they all attacked Junhyuk. The berserk effect stacked with Jeffrey's ultimate. It was an incredible power. Jeffrey could boost it even more, but even now, it was plenty powerful.

Junhyuk distanced himself, and Jeffrey smiled and extended his hand. Junhyuk teleported again at that time.

A lasso of purple energy flew from Jeffrey's hand. If it managed to catch him, Junhyuk would be pulled toward his attacker. He couldn't let the monsters attack him like that.

No one had taught Jeffrey how to use his powers, but Jeffrey was able to do it expertly. Junhyuk stared silently at the monsters rushing for him and triggered a Spatial Collapse.

Craaack, craack!

Both the spirit monsters and the Ghost White Tiger were sucked in by the void, and Junhyuk slashed at them.

The shockwaves from Aksha's Longsword killed the Ghost White Tiger and the rest of the monsters. Then, Junhyuk quickly lengthened his sword and stopped it right against Jeffrey's neck.

Jeffrey smacked his lips and said, "I lost."

"I wasn't trying to defeat you."

Junhyuk had simply been curious about Jeffrey's powers. Now that Jeffrey was a hero, he could tame more ranked monsters.

Junhyuk stared at Jeffrey and said, "Your new power, that power belonged to the undead. You must be vigilant about keeping your sanity intact now that you have it."

Jeffrey nodded heavily. Even if he was a hero now, he didn't want to fight against Junhyuk. Jeffrey had simply wanted to know where he stood, and he realized that he still lacked a lot of things. Junhyuk hadn't even used his Spatial Slash.

Junhyuk continued, "The items we picked up, some of them should have boosts to dark attacks and dark powers. It looks like your ultimate is darkness based."

Jeffrey agreed and said, "I had my other powers before I got the dark energy."

Junhyuk added, "And we need to get you a new weapon."

Jeffrey used a shield as his weapon, but now, his shield was cracked all over.

"Some shields can double as weapons. If you have enough gold, you can get a legendary weapon or item, but you can always get a better shield from Bebe. You'll need to learn some shield techniques."

"Shield techniques?"

"That's right."

Guardians had people who knew about shield combat techniques, but those people had their limits. Jeffrey needed to learn shield techniques from an experienced hero from the Dimensional Battlefield.

"One more thing: You must learn to control that energy within your chest."

Junhyuk thought about it naturally since Bebe had explained that he had everything anyone would need, but gold was necessary to purchase things from the yeti. With enough of it, Bebe would sell anything one could want. Jeffrey would find himself on an entirely different level once he got better equipment.

Jeffrey nodded and thought about it.

Junhyuk patted his shoulder and said, "As soon as I inspect those items, I'll give some to you."

"Thank you."

"Use this place as your new training grounds."

"Sure."

Junhyuk was able to get there immediately from Elise's house, so in case Jeffrey lost his mind to the dark energy, he would be ready to deal with the situation.

Junhyuk told Jeffrey to get himself checked periodically and went to see Elise. When he walked in, her eyes widened.

"Those heroes crossed the line! What happened?"

"It wasn't easy."

In truth, it had been extremely difficult. Back in the Dimensional Battlefield, those same heroes had been much easier to deal with for him. Only Alondo had posed difficulty in the Dimensional Battlefield, but on Earth, everything had been different.

Every enemy had posed him great problems.

Elise stared at him and asked, "Can you show me the items you picked up?"

"You won't be able to inspect them anyway."

She tapped her goggles and said, "I just made these. I want to see if they work."

"What are those?"

"Something that'll make you happy."

He pulled out the items he had picked up one by one, and Elise inspected them with her goggles on.

"This one increases health and dark attack."

"What?!"

Elise handed him the googles, and he put them on and inspected the items.

Junhyuk couldn't tell the items' names, and there was no lore being shown, but he could see the items' stats and buffs. That was incredible.

"How did you make this?"

"That's a secret." Elise smiled and asked, "Knowing the stats and buffs, can you guess their prices?"

Junhyuk had already sold items from those undead heroes, so he could certainly guess at the new items' worth.

He took them all out, and Elise inspected them one by one.

"What exactly is dark attack?"

"It increases the attribute of undead enemies, but I'm not sure myself."

"Right…" Then, Elise said, "We should separate the weapons from the other items. I want to know if magitek was used to craft these."

Junhyuk nodded. There were a lot of items, so he would let Elise inspect all of them for their stats and buffs. That would help him in figuring out which to keep and which to sell.

Junhyuk looked at the equipment. It all looked about the same, but some items were superior to others.

Junhyuk could make a decent amount out of some, so he set those aside. There were seven of them. Compared to the others, those seven items were far superior.

He could probably sell the seven for 70,000G each, but he had actually set them aside for Jeffrey. If Jeffrey hadn't become a hero, Sarang and the champions would've been killed on that mountain.

Jeffrey had earned those items. The total price for all for them was probably around 1,000,000G, but selling them would only net him half of that.

With those items, Jeffrey would become a true hero. There were a lot of heroes who didn't have enough items, or who had shoddy items. Good heroes should contribute to their teams to grow.

Junhyuk checked the remaining items, the other fifty. Each of them would sell for 40,000G, so if he sold all of them, he would earn 2,000,000G. Sarang had also participated in the battle, so Junhyuk would give her her share.

By studying the items, Elise would be able to craft magitek items with darkness buffs for Jeffrey, and that way, Jeffrey wouldn't have to worry about acquiring new items immediately.

However, Elise needed time to do that.

Junhyuk appreciated the undead attack on Earth.

"This ended up being great business."

But, he was still furious. Next time, he would surely destroy Durandal. Of course, at the moment, he couldn't get to Durandal's dimension.

"I'll get my chance."

Durandal had infuriated him, but Eltor had enraged him. Junhyuk wanted to seriously hurt the manager, and he was working on it.
