Legend of Legends

No one could approach Sarang’s training facility. She was always practicing all kinds of spells, so her facility was even bigger than Junhyuk’s.

Whenever Junhyuk entered it, lightning would be bouncing off the walls and shoot right at him.

This time, Junhyuk blocked the bolt with his sword and grounded the charge.

When Sarang saw him inside, she smiled brightly and walked toward him.

“Big brother! When did you come in?”

“I wanted to tell you something, but I was almost roasted.”

Sarang waved her hands and replied, “You are great at cracking jokes! That amount of electricity wouldn’t hurt you.”

“I’m vulnerable to electricity. It’ll definitely hurt.”

Junhyuk sat down with her. Sarang had been talking to Vera, so Junhyuk contacted her as well. Vera waved at him and said, “I heard from Artlan. You’re attempting something impossible!”

“Do you also think it’s impossible?”

“Of course! It’s a good idea to try to perceive things through dimensions, but in reality, it’s almost impossible.”

Junhyuk smiled bitterly. He didn’t have anything he could say to her. Gongon had also told him it was impossible, but he had expected a better response from Vera since she knew dimensional magic.

“It’s possible to deliver items through dimensions.”

“Yes, as long as you know the coordinates.”

His eyes beamed then.

“Last time, you felt the living spirit within me to learn my coordinates.”

“Right!” Vera clapped her hands and said, “Now that you mention it, it may be possible, but there’s much to prepare.”

“Prepare?”

Vera took the communication orb and pointed it at something else. She was showing him a screen, and she pointed to a magic circle the size of a soccer field projected on the screen.

“Can you see this? This is the size of the magic circle for dimensional transportation. To discover coordinates, you’ll need a magic circle bigger than this one. Acquiring coordinates is more difficult than transporting things through dimensions.”

“Can I ask you for a favor?” Junhyuk asked.

“What favor?”

“Can you teach me about magic circles so that I can read coordinates?”

“Even if I tried to teach you, you wouldn’t be able to learn it.”

“Why?”

“You don’t have any intelligence runestones. You wouldn’t understand the lecture.”

He turned to Sarang and asked, “Could you teach it to Sarang then?”

“For her to grasp it all, she needs to keep studying magic for another year. You can only learn dimensional magic after you’ve mastered all other magic.”

“It’ll only take Sarang a year to master all other magic?!”

“No. She has a long way to go to master everything. I meant to say that it’ll take her a year to learn dimensional transportation.”

Junhyuk sighed. He thought he had been getting closer, but now, he was lost.

He looked at Sarang, and she smiled at him.

“A year might be a while, but it can also go by fast.”

“You want to learn it?”

“Whenever I have time to spare.”

“You might make a mistake trying to pass through dimensions,” Vera said, and Sarang smiled awkwardly.

“But, I want to help.”

Junhyuk petted her head and looked at Vera.

“You have helped me.”

“Why are you there now?” Vera asked.

“I wanted to tell her something.”

“Can I hear it as well?”

“Sure, you can give me some advice.”

Vera folded her arms, and Junhyuk turned to Sarang and said, “It’s good that you are learning new spells, but looked into your powers first. Once you learn the theories behind them, your powers will increase.”

“Yeah?”

Junhyuk was proof of what he was saying, so he nodded heavily.

“It will help.”

“Sure, I will try.”

Junhyuk turned to Vera and said, “I’m heading out.”

“I heard that you are buying Artlan some drinks. When you do, give me a call as well.”

“I will.”

Junhyuk started thinking he would need to buy an even bigger training facility. After that, he started worrying about what drinks to buy Artlan.

Artlan could drink like a horse, so he would have to get something with a lot of alcohol. Then, there needed to be wine for Vera. He didn’t know what kind of drink a dragon would want.

Junhyuk returned to his training facility while thinking. It had seemed impossible, but now, that same thing seemed nearly possible.

Junhyuk wanted to perceive essence through dimensions, and Vera had told him that acquiring coordinates was possible.

Back in his training facility, Gongon’s projection was still visible. He was walking around, seemingly experimenting with something.

“Gon, do you have a favorite drink?” he asked the dragon.

Gongon laughed and replied, “Do you want to get me drunk?”

“Don’t be stupid. Do you have a favorite drink?”

“I like fruity drinks. I like them sweet.”

“OK.”

Junhyuk thought that he would need to shop for alcohol. He had been training hard, so the rest was nice.

He went out again and headed for Elise’s house. Junhyuk teleported there and went to meet her. Elise was in the process of making antidotes for the infected, and Junhyuk coughed to let her know he was there.

“Ah-hram!”

Elise looked at him, and he laughed.

“I have a favor to ask.”

“Ask me anything.”

“I want to buy some alcohol, the best kind.”

“What kind of alcohol?”

“I don’t care if they sell them in stores. I need something very alcoholic and something sweet. Can you give me some recommendations?”

“Hm. What’s the price range?”

“The price doesn’t matter. The drinks are for my mentor, Sarang’s teacher and Gongon.”

“Gongon is my teacher. I’ll get something nice, Earth’s very best.”

Elise would get the drinks for him. It had been a good idea to ask her.

“When do you need it?”

“During the next battlefield, I plan to buy a training facility. With it, I can invite them over.”

“Yeah? That’s incredible! There’s a limit to what I can learn through a communication orb, but in person…”

Junhyuk smiled. Elise would certainly learn more in person. The heroes might even exchange information in his facility.

He was certain his facility wouldn’t serve only for training purposes. He was treating it more as a space for heroes to exchange ideas, and for that reason, he was willing to spend a significant amount on it.

After asking Elise to buy the drinks, Junhyuk went back to his training facility. He was done with other businesses.

There was only one thing left, and it was to focus on his training. He wanted to perceive the enemy’s essence, so he stared intently at Gongon’s face.

Gongon was building something with his goggles on. He didn’t know what the dragon was making, but when he got a look at it, he became curious.

It looked like it was part of something bigger.

Junhyuk closed his eyes. It wasn’t easy to perceive someone’s essence through the communication orb.

“Gon.”

“I thought I told you to watch,” Gongon complained, but turned to him. Gongon was aware that Junhyuk was watching him.

“It’s possible to acquire coordinates during dimensional transportation. It requires a massive magic circle, but it’s possible.”

Staring at him, Gongon asked, “Who told you that?”

“Vera. When she sent me things, she acquired my coordinates.”

“Hm. Is that really possible? That’s hard to believe.” Gongon was a dragon, but he didn’t know magic like Vera. The hatchling smiled and said, “I want to meet that woman.”

“You will.”

“Sure.”

Gongon went back to his work and asked, “Are you going to keep watching me?”

“I might get more clues, so yes.”

Gongon laughed out loud and turned to what he was building.

“Watch all you want.”

“Thanks!”

Junhyuk stared at Gongon nonstop. The whole situation was extremely funny. It was like watching TV while trying to perceive the essence of the person in the TV.

It was quixotic.

He stared at Gongon, who was being projected, to perceive Gongon’s essence.

That whole time, he didn’t make any progress. Instead, he got interested in what Gongon was building. What was he building?

Almost like reading his mind, Gongon muttered, “This can’t be done with magic. It’ll be a double-edged sword.”

“A double-edged sword?”

“I’m talking to myself. Don’t interrupt me.”

Junhyuk laughed, and Gongon said, “This is the jewel of magitek. When I finish it, I’ll show it to you first. I would get a lot of gold from Bebe for it too.”

Gongon folded his arms and muttered, “Bebe will beg me to sell it. This item is far beyond our generation’s grasp.”

“A weapon?”

“Yes. Better than any legendary item.”

“When you finish it, you should sell me one,” Junhyuk said.

“At cost.”

Junhyuk stared at Gongon. He had started by trying to perceive Gongon’s essence, but now, he was just interested in what Gongon was making.
