Chapter 3) Seo-yoon's Smile
Weed hunted until he gained 3 more levels .
It was impossible to concentrate on hunting thanks to the war on the Central Continent . In order to purchase seasoning and other goods, the Arpen Kingdom needed to expand but the territory had only reached the Yusellin village .
“Hermes Guild… . . ”
“The Cloud Guild also isn't ordinary . They quickly organized a large army . ”
Users and residents were talking about the war in the square . Weed was King of the Arpen Kingdom so there was a relation with the war .
“No . Don't pay any regard to it . I will just need to take medicine for a headache if I think about it . ”
It was a role that could cause chronic constipation! In modern times, the political arena was full of turmoil due to problems with corruption, crime and economics . A cool city man would survive on alcohol, coffee and headache medicine .
“I just need to think about eating and living well . Watch television and forget all the bad things . This world is full of thieves anyway . ”
The war in the Central Continent would become a really big crisis soon . Whether the winner was the Haven Kingdom or the Britten Alliance Kingdom, the winners would lead to a big empire . The northern economy was currently developing so the timing was fortunate . But worrying about it wouldn't settle the problem .
Weed stayed faithful to hunting and carving sculptures . Continuous dungeon hunting was boring and tiring so Pale's party headed towards Morata .
“Hunting for 18 hours a day… Tsk tsk!”
They hunted for 18 hours out of 24 hours in reality . The time in Royal Road was 4 times that . After a few days, they started to lose the will to even look at monsters . This was a fast movement and high speed hunt so Weed's colleagues took refuge in Morata .
He continued hunting to some degree with Bahamorg and Seo-yoon . The priests always became tired and fell down so he had to go to the city to exchange them . Weed carved in his spare time and succeeded in making fantastic sculptures .
Some sculptures could be used for later . Having a variety of experiences and travelling to many places was indispensable . He had travelled urgently through various parts of the continent .
“In the meantime I made too much . And now I need to do make a piece… . . ”
There was the best model nearby . The sun, sea, wind and clouds . Sometimes he would base it off the spectacular nature around him but that wasn't necessary right now .
Weed was about to start sculpting when Seo-yoon sat near him . Weed spoke casually .
“Excuse me, can I carve a small sculpture?”
“Huh?”
“You will be the target . ”
He felt like Seo-yoon would naturally decline . That's because she wouldn't even show her face to other people . Furthermore, she had the habit of killing others mercilessly . But unexpectedly, Seo-yoon looked embarrassed and gave a small nod to agree .
“Hmm hmm, I'll make it beautifully . ”
Weed carved a sculpture with her as the model . His heart trembled for some reason as he looked at her face while carving . He thought Seo-yoon's face was beautiful every time he saw it but it seemed to shine further today . He naturally became serious as he carved the sculpture . Weed carefully looked at Seo-yoon and felt both happy and ashamed .
“Excuse me, can you hold your sword?”
“So?”
He made various sculptures while changing her posture .
“You don't have any other clothes? Armour is good but it would also be nice to look at casual wear . ”
Time passed very quickly as sculptures of her were made . They were sculptures that restored health, mana and vitality . When carving the sculpture like that, the beauty of the sculpture easily came out .
A divine female beauty . It was a beauty that would make even Goddess Freya jealous . A sculpture with the golden ratio .
Fine pieces and Masterpieces emerged . He made so many sculptures of Seo-yoon but there was no expiry date on her beauty . It was a face he would never become bored of even if he saw it for the rest of his life .
“Um… There is no change in expression so every sculpture seems monotonous . ”
Weed said while carving a sculpture of Seo-yoon . The atmosphere of each person would change depending on their expression or gesture . He wanted to make sculptures with various other forms . This was his desire as a man and a sculptor!

“Drink a little wine and make a sweet expression . ”
Seo-yoon drank wine and smiled awkwardly . Trying to make a facial expression wasn't going well . Weed thought about how to get the expression he wanted .
“Sweet seems difficult so let's start with a peaceful expression . So… Being able to sleep after hunting . Make that expression . ”
Seo-yoon didn't know what to do . If hunting finished then she was just tired and took a rest .
“You rest next to the fountain in the square . ”
“No, I just lie back on Wy-3 . ”
“Ah!”
Then a peaceful expression emerged on Seo-yoon's face . She felt the most peaceful when riding on Wy-3 through the cloud layer and basking in the sun . Weed left her expression on the sculpture .
“This time I'm going to make a joke about Silver Bird and Golden Bird . ”
“A joke?”
“Choose a feather from Silver Bird… . . ”
“Isn't that annoying?”
He couldn't explain it in words so he summoned Silver Bird and Golden Bird . The two birds fought and play around while rubbing and biting at each other's wings intimately . Seo-yoon unknowingly smiled happily .
'Uh, pretty . '
Weed also left that scene on the sculpture . The time he spent with Seo-yoon passed really quickly . He used his powers of observation to make accurate and detailed sculptures . He completed the sculpture and showed it to Seo-yoon .
“How is it, is it okay?”
Seo-yoon didn't say anything but nodded . The person who made the sculpture was Weed so she felt good about it .
“This is expressed by you but… Can I have it?”
Weed's words to Seo-yoon were even sweeter than the words of a main male character in a drama .
“Ye… . s . ”
She was happy despite being embarrassed . Weed was a little dim but now he seemed to have shown a bit of his heart . Weed smiled complacently .
'That's great . '
The Ice Beauty based on Seo-yoon was unearthed near Morata . Previously he was terrified of Seo-yoon and left it unattended after giving life to Bingryong . The users were extremely shocked when the Ice Beauty sculpture was unearthed .
“Ah… I heard a report but it is so beautiful that I'm trembling . ”
“A face like this really can't exist . Weed's sculpting skill really soars in the sky if he can imagine this . ”
“Huhuk, this really is a present for me who couldn't get a girlfriend for 29 years . ”
“I can't possible leave Morata without seeing it one more time!”
The users felt extreme regret towards the Ice Beauty . It was to the extent that the Grass Porridge Cult classified it as the number 1 treasured sculpture in Morata . They liked Weed's adventures of course but the users expected more from his sculptures .
-I would like to see more sculptures related to the Ice Beauty .
-This sculpture has completely taken my heart . Now I'm having dreams about the Ice Beauty .

-I went to adventure in other areas on horseback . And then returned on the next day . I want to see the Ice Beauty .
The users were truly frightening . It was more popular than other Magnum Opus pieces with fantastic options . Weed's expression became glazed as he imagined what would happen if he exhibited the smiling Seo-yoon sculpture in the Art Centre .
'There would be a daily crowd of people . The admission fee… . . '
It was like ripping off visitors to inspect a house that would be sold only for the company to put up a plaque saying it wouldn't be sold .
In the past Weed hadn't been quite satisfied with the sculptures of Seo-yoon that he made . But now her eyes seemed warm like the morning sun . Seo-yoon's facial expression didn't have stiffness anymore so naturally Weed expressed it . No matter how good the other sculptor's skill was, Weed was the only one who could make such precious sculptures .
'I have to really consider the Arts Centre exhibition . Maybe it isn't a good idea . '
Weed decided not to display Seo-yoon's sculpture to make money in the short term .
'I should wait and I might be able to get a valuable price later on . '
He didn't have any qualms about postponing it . Weed hunted with Seo-yoon, Bahamorg, Van Hawk and Torido . It was like a family going to wipe out a dungeon!
“The most unpleasant thing for a noble vampire like me is to smell the sweat of a barbarian . ”
Van Hawk was a loyal Dark Knight but Torido had a tendency to not listen to some words . Then Torido was caught and beaten by Bahamorg to make him behave .
Bahamorg really liked fighting . His nature itself meant that he was strong . After Weed gave him new life, he was weaker but even more enthusiastic about fighting . It was to the extent that Weed and Seo-yoon just had to follow behind Bahamorg . And he still didn't completely believe in Weed yet .
“The only emperor I will follow is Geihar Von Arpen . ”
Bahamorg didn't want to show loyalty to Weed who was a warrior weaker than himself . He only went together with him as repayment for his new life . In addition, he had no interest in fighting .
“They are too weak . ”
Weed and Seo-yoon were warriors gifted enough to face the dungeon boss alone . But Bahamorg had a serious expression after seeing Weed carve the sculpture of Seo-yoon .
Geihar Von Arpen .
Watching Weed made him remember the form of Emperor Geihar Von Arpen so he helped Weed gain levels and complete quests .
Weed had perfect concentration during the long hunt!
They received requests from the residents in the Arpen Kingdom to clear dungeons and caves . He listened closely when receiving requests from the residents .
“It isn't necessary to worry about the future of the Arpen Kingdom . His Majesty is protecting us from the monsters . ”
“This is the first time warriors have cleared the Holden Dungeon . I'm not surprised . Among them is our king, His Majesty! It is glorious . ”
“The old man at the village entrance has been looking for their lost goods . Many people have tried but all failed . He finally found the goods for the old man . His Majesty King Weed is the one who accomplished it!”
Weed's hunts and quests caused rumours among the residents . The dungeons were also unspoiled so quite a few treasures were kept there . In the past, monsters had plundered the Niflheim Empire so the riches were there for the first explorers to enjoy .
Weed's sculpting proficiency slowly but steadily rose from advanced level 9 .
After finishing his sculptures of Seo-yoon, the targets changed to Pale, Hwaryeong, Bellot, Irene and Romuna .
“There is no end to a women's jealousy . When creating a sculpture, you need to praise even small and insignificant parts as pretty and charming . ”
This was the philosophy of life that he naturally realized while living .
Bahamorg's breakthrough power in battle wasn't ordinary . Bahamorg's slashing technology was enough for him to even break through a boss class monster . The barbarian warrior Bahamorg! He had a knack for catching the attention of monsters with special presences . Sometimes monsters would attack just because they looked at him and felt threatened .
“My resilience and perseverance is soaring . ”
Weed's level wasn't a problem . His skills and stats needed to grow evenly if he didn't want to run into a wall later .
“Bahamorg, I'm going to the front . Don't pay any regard to any monsters that attack me . ”

“If that is what you want . ”
Weed was attacked by a monster .
“The taste of hunting is good . ”
His previously lukewarm feeling started heating up! Weed concentrated more on attack than defense . Before he didn't have any priests so he had to be careful about his health dropping to the floor in battle with monsters . But now he attacked intensely and slit the belly .
Bahamorg acted like he was only interested in his own battle but he shouted to attract monsters when Weed was at risk . This made it possible for the priests to treat him .
And Seulroeo's wedding ring! When his life was at stake, the ring could transfer health from his spouse . Of course, the wedding ring wouldn't work against really strong monsters but it was good when hunting became slightly dangerous .
Weed could also actively use the skills of a berserker . In the past he didn't fight this roughly because of Bahamorg . Weed originally liked battles like this .
He fought against the monsters desperately! This was to raise his stats and the proficiency of several skills .
“The King is great . ”
The advantage of quests was that he could choose his rewards without needing a high intimacy . He was a person who explored the Jigolaths and defeated the Immortal Legion . But now he could meet many beginners while adventuring through the Arpen Kingdom .
There was a party of tense beginners walking on the plains . Weed gave them a warning .
“If you go forward then there is a group of starving hyenas . Approximately 32 metres from here . ”
He didn't say the exact number and Weed classified it by its leather, not the animal species . The hyena's leather could only be sold for a cheap price and they ran away really quickly which is why it didn't suit his tastes .
“Thank you . Would we be able to handle it?”
“If your level exceeds 65… They are in the early 60s . ”
“Heok, not exactly… . ”
“I can understand just by looking at your equipment . One person is wearing chain armour and the others are wearing leather armour . Does the leather armour have an option to raise defense against a monster's teeth?”
The party he surprised was made up of 5 people . The party also agree with his assessment .
“If you go carefully then it is possible to hunt them . Just aim well and pay attention . ”
“Thank you very much . You kindly informed us about this . ”
“No . Everyone should help each other when living . ”
Weed had ample reason for this . If they died then taxes would reduce so it was better for them to survive .
All the sculpting while hunting raised his proficiency to 61 . 5% . His Handicraft skill also reached 63 . 7% of advanced level 9 . Cooking was 99% intermediate level 9, Blacksmithing advanced level 1 and Sewing reached intermediate level 7 .
Even apart from his combat skills, his production skill was top notch .
“Is it necessary to raise sculpting proficiency to create the secret technique… . ”
Weed still hadn't decided despite all the hunting . He had a lot of greedy thoughts . His proficiency increased quickly from his sculptures of Seo-yoon so he needed to make a choice quickly . He needed a sculpting technique that would help with hunting .
While he was thinking about it, Weed realized that Seo-yoon hadn't declined any of his requests .
'There have been many times when I received health from the wedding ring . '
As a berserker she could catch more monsters than Weed . But she didn't go ahead like Bahamorg . She watched and stayed still for a long time while Weed made the sculptures . Seo-yoon just watched his actions with bright eyes .
Weed was hoping for something so he asked her .
“I have a question . ”
“If I took a loan would you be my guarantor?”

This was a question that could definitely check her heart . In these days, you could tell the friends and brothers by whether they were willing to be guarantors .
'She absolutely won't accept . '
Seo-yoon nodded .
“You are willing to be a guarantor?”
“Yes . I can do that . ”
“Um… Then what if I was in danger while hunting . Would you die instead of me?”
Seo-yoon nodded again . Her eyes answered like it was natural .
'She also willingly died against Kubichya in the Jigolaths . '
Weed thought of an even greater sacrifice .
“What if I fall into a pyramid scheme?”
“I'll buy you things . ”
“If I need money for gambling?”
“I'll give an account transfer . ”
This was the ultimate form of affection in today's society! Weed remembered an even more serious situation .
'This one will be difficult to swallow . '
He paid attention to the answer that would emerge from her mouth .
“I'm in a lot of pain . I need a transplant… Would you give it?”
A liver transplant wasn't a small operation . There was the transplant and recovery time required .
“I would . ”
“A bone marrow transplantation?”
“I'll give it to you . ”
Weed now knew the meaning of Seo-yoon's words .
“Although I won't always be there, a home for Bingryong, the wyverns and Yellowy .
