It didn’t go so well that I wondered if the time remaining for about a week or so until I received the equipment felt like this, but as the days approached, the expectation of what kind of equipment would be in my hands only grew.

During the one-week subjugation, the basic abilities of Seonghyeon as well as Inhwagwa and Sangyeon increased, but there were also obvious limitations.

It was a little bit of an effect that until I received the equipment, I couldn’t deal with a beast stronger than the beast I’m dealing with now.

However, the biggest influence was that he had a different mindset from the first time he hunted the same beast every day.

There was no longer a battle with all his might, and he started subjugating effectively, conserving his strength by understanding the opponent’s weaknesses and movement patterns.

Of course, it was not possible to just rest, so Seong-hyeon and the rest went to the door to subjugate without missing a day.

“Finally today.”

“I know. I look forward to it a little bit.”

Even so, In-hwan was moving along with Sang-yeon with an excited face that didn’t match the look of her clothes.

Today is the day I receive the equipment I entrusted to the academy for production.

You will have to check to see if the equipment was made as originally ordered, but the fact that equipment with its own unique abilities was coming out was approaching with great trembling.

“But what equipment did you guys order? I asked for more accuracy.”

Inhwan’s expression looked as if he had already received the equipment he wanted.

“Well, I don’t know if it’s possible, but first of all, if I can increase the minimum required stamina required for Berserk… something like that?”

“What, you made a huge request? Seonghyeon, who are you? What ability did you ask to make it?”

“What’s a healer? I just want you to be treated well. This is how it feels.”

In response to Seonghyeon’s unknown answer, Inhwan and Sangyeon headed to the equipment factory without asking any more questions.

Soon, the three of them entered the equipment workshop, and the craftsman they had met the other day came out to meet them.

“Oh, you just came on time.”

I tried to guess what the result was from the craftsman’s expression, but it didn’t seem so bright whether it was intentional or the truth.

“come here.”

When I followed the craftsman inside, quite a number of equipment were placed on the wall and on the display case.

“Don’t close your eyes.”

Perhaps it was a habit, the craftsmen who sat down with a cigarette this time put their equipment on the table with an indifferent expression as if it was nothing special.

“Can you just look at it? It is made in the form of an accessory that is easy to wear.”

Two were in the shape of a ring, and one was in the shape of a bracelet.

“Hey, how am I?”

In-hwan asked, looking at the master-in-law with an expression of great anticipation, and the father-in-law answered with a smile that seemed even slightly arrogant.

“Isn’t the first thing you asked for was the accuracy of your abilities?”

“yes that’s right!”

“Can it be just that? Even so, he is a student who represents the grade in the academy that represents the country.”

“Oh, oh…!”

I haven’t heard any other explanations yet, but just listening to the words of the craftsman, Inhwan seemed to have created a much better level of equipment than what Inhwan initially requested.

“Looking at your records, it is said that the power itself is excellent, but the consumption of magical power is considerable, right?”

“Yes, that’s right. So it was difficult to raise the skill level. I can’t use it often.”

The father-in-law turned over the last sip of the cigarette he had bitten and pushed the leftmost ring slightly forward.

“The accuracy of the ability you talked about, along with the reduction in the amount of mana required to use the ability, are also attached.”

“I, really?!”

In-hwan opened his eyes wide enough to wonder if he could get bigger than this and approached the ring at once.

“Yeah, now it’s yours.”

Inhwan carefully lifted the ring with both hands with a reverent attitude.

“Can I hug you?”

“Yeah, now it’s yours?”

Inhwan put the ring on the ring finger of his left hand, spread his hand, and looked at the ring with ecstatic eyes.

“uh? Hey, doesn’t this feel like you’re wearing a ring?”

“What? Didn’t you know that?”

The craftsman continued to explain while looking at Inhwan with his eyes as if he were looking at a villager.

“It is important to know that equipment is the most important thing to have! The ring won’t show up unless you decide to show it to me in the future. Besides, I don’t feel like I’m wearing a ring like I do now.”

“Oh, that’s amazing…”

Inhwan looked down at the ring with only his mouth open in a function beyond his imagination.

“How are you satisfied?”

“Not a little! It’s really great!”

Hearing Inhwan’s words, the father-in-law looked at the performance with a cheerful smile.

“Next, I’ll explain your equipment.”

It was a performance I wasn’t expecting much from, but I had no choice but to raise my expectations a little bit because I had just witnessed what happened to In-hwan right in front of my eyes.

“Um, did you mean to increase the minimum requirement for Berserk?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

The father-in-law clicked his tongue as if he was a little sad, and said.

“It’s a pity, but I couldn’t contain the abilities you wanted. I think it’s still technically lacking.”

“Ah… is that so?”

Sangyeon looked a little disappointed, but it didn’t show much.

“Instead, it’s an ability that turns you into a rage when your ability drops below a certain level of health. I made my own equipment…but I don’t know if I like it.”

“Any ability is fine.”

Unlike usual, In-hwan and Seong-hyeon stared at the show with a rather polite expression.

“As far as I know, if you exceed a certain amount of stamina, you know that the madness is released, right?”

“Yes, that is correct. We don’t know the exact extent yet.”

The father-in-law completely erased the sad look he had just seen, and at the same time showed a similar kind of look to Inhwan and said.

“Then please explain briefly. After receiving your request and receiving the report of the ability, I thought…”

The father-in-law said while looking at Seong-hyeon and Sang-yeon alternately.

“Why did you two stay together like this? That friend is a healer, and when you reach a certain level of stamina, the madness is released.”

“…”

In fact, because of that reason, the relationship had reached the brink of the worst, so the two did not give any other answers and just looked into the eyes of the father-in-law.

“So, did you say Goo Sang-yeon? You may see it as a bit of a loss, but even if your health is restored, you have the ability to prevent the madness from dissipating.”

“Hey, is that possible?”

“If you don’t believe it, why don’t you try it yourself later?”

The master snorted with a confident expression and looked at the performance, immersed in emotion.

“I thought he was selfish, didn’t he? I thought you wouldn’t be happy.”

“It’s good enough equipment even if Kim Seong-hyun is not around.”

“Thank you for saying that. However, the conditions for becoming rampant will not change, so be careful.”

Unlike In-hwan, who wore a ring with a reverent heart, Sang-yeon was full of unfamiliar expressions.

It’s like he doesn’t know what he’s feeling.

“And lastly, Kim Seong-hyun.”

“Oh, yes.”

The craftsman’s eyes looking at Seonghyeon felt a little sharp.

“Huh… I just… because of you…”

“Uh… I’m sorry.”

At first, because he felt like he had to apologize, Seong-hyeon bowed his head slightly, and as if he was the master, he waved his hand and pushed the bracelet in the middle slightly forward.

“done. I have to say that thanks to you, I showed some craftsmanship in a short time. Oh, that doesn’t mean that the rest of the equipment was made roughly, so don’t get me wrong.”

The craftsman explained while holding the bracelet in his hand and handed it to Seong-hyeon.

“The other two equipment were made faster than expected, but Kim Seong-hyun only took the time for the four equipment.”

The father-in-law asked Seong-hyeon carefully.

“…are you wearing a ring?”

“Yes? A ring?”

Sunghyun looked at his fingers.

But there was nothing that could be seen as a ring.

‘…uh? Didn’t you come out with a ring when you were applied for by the association in the past?’

“…what. is not it?”

Obviously, the hunters wearing the equipment were exuding the energy, but the craftsman tilted his head when he saw that even he did not understand English.

“Then can I see you for a moment?”

“yes. As per your convenience…”

The father-in-law grabbed Seong-hyeon’s hands and started looking around.

“…”

At first I touched my wrist, and then I started to feel strangely unpleasant to pinch each finger, even the clasp.

“Hmm, no. Is it an illusion? Well, unfortunately, the ability you asked for failed.”

“Fail?”

If it was an absurd request, it could have failed, but there was another reason why Sung-hyun was surprised at the word failure.

The content requested by the production company was something that could not fail at all.

‘Is it a failure to ask you to strengthen your abilities a little…?’

“Yeah, I don’t know why, but as if we knew who to wear it, it didn’t give us the ability itself, so we gave it arbitrarily. At least it will help you.”

The father-in-law took Seong-hyeon’s hand again and put a bracelet on it.

“Are you sure you are a healer?”

“Yes?”

“Healers should be able to survive in any situation.”

“That’s right.”

Seong-hyeon answered wearing a bracelet, and the father-in-law took a cigarette again, sat down and continued the explanation.

“That arm will protect you from an unresponsive attack just once.”

“An unresponsive attack?”

“Yeah, I was thinking of instilling an attack-related ability, but the power isn’t that high and I can’t use it a few times, so I made it defensive on purpose because I didn’t want to make it rely on something.”

I couldn’t trust him just by seeing him smoking cigarettes, but I could get the feeling that it was made after careful consideration for students who would use every single one of them.

“An attack you can recognize or react to will not trigger. You can’t really feel anything…it can prevent you from assassinations, for example.”

The craftsman was also very well aware of the position and value of Seonghyeon, so he put all his energy into creating the equipment.

“Of course, you can’t block the attacks of the world’s top hunters, but you can easily block the attacks of some idiots. It’s a shame that it’s only once.”

“Then, if my level is raised so that I can react to an attack that I can’t react to now, wouldn’t it be triggered naturally?”

“right. I understood right away. In a way, can it be seen as a piece of equipment that grows with its owner? haha.”

Seong-hyeon carefully put on the bracelet, and like the other two rings, it gradually became transparent, and then the appearance of the bracelet was invisible.

“”thank you.””

“Thank you. done. good.”

In-hwan and Sang-yeon left the production house first, and Seong-hyeon was about to leave, but the craftsman spoke in a voice that only Seong-hyun could hear.

“You must survive. whatever happens.”

“…yes.”

Seonghyeon, who was unfamiliar with this kind of worry, awkwardly bowed his head and closed the door.

“I must have received new equipment…Are you asking the association now?”

Inhwan looked as if he wanted to go to subjugation right now.

“okay. Let’s save the other two and apply for subjugation as soon as possible.”

The three headed to the open door they had always headed to lightly check on the equipment they had received today.
