Chapter 239: What? Is that all you can do? (2)

Chapter 239 - What? Is that all you can do? (2)

The Secretary’s real name was Yoojin Christian. However, she had received a new name from Lee Gun and became "Guisoon" instead.

Anyway, Guisoon had come looking for the World Workshop for a reason.

“Go to the workshop to buy some paper and writing utensils that you need. If there is a toy that you want, you can buy it too.”

She was on an errand. Although it was an errand, in reality, she was permitted to go enjoy herself. In particular, she was given the temple’s credit card.

This probably had to do with Sungjae, Carly, and Yooha. Because of them, Lee Gun’s bible had grown in thickness; it had become as tall as a person.

At that point, Lee Gun had acknowledged the amount of labor that she was putting in.

The fandom of those three people had crossed the line of them being fanatics. Having high faith was quite useful, but by the same token, the bible was full of content that could be dangerous(?) to Lee Gun if Guisoon left it as it was.

[Huff. I cannot stop looking away from Uncle even for one second. Lee Gun-nim stands out everywhere he goes. Lee Gun-nim makes it so that no one can look away from him. Huff.]

Effect: It doesn’t matter if one is a man or a woman. The Serpent Bearer captivates everyone.

- No one can escape his mojo.

While Guisoon had been knocked out, a new bible effect had appeared. Consequently, Lee Gun had been chased by thousands of men and women who sought his love.

It was so bad that Lee Gun’s chastity had been in danger, and his life was saved when Guisoon had woken up. She had edited the bible.

[One cannot look away from Lee Gun-nim’s greatness. Lee Gun-nim displays his brilliance everywhere he goes. Huzzah for the great light that makes the lowly beings look at him once again.]

Effect: Provoke monsters that have dispersed. Gather all the monsters within a hundred-meter radius.

Of course, Guisoon could fuck over Lee Gun by not fixing the bible’s content, but Guisoon had not done that. It wasn’t for Lee Gun. She just couldn’t stand the passages being so garbage.

‘Yes. He’ll be defeated, but I’ll be the one to defeat him.’

There was no way she would receive help from someone else.

Normally, she was unable to leave the holy ground, but Lee Gun had already upgraded the fountain pen.

[A Wooden Fountain Pen that cannot write lies (EX)]

The fountain pen wasn’t a weapon. It could only write words. Therefore, Guisoon wondered why Lee Gun had upgraded a miscellaneous item to the EX rank.

‘He ground up and used divine ingredients for this fountain pen.’

Although Lee Gun had a perverted taste, his actions had allowed her to leave the holy ground without being monitored.

After evolving into an EX-rank item, the fountain pen could follow Guisoon and go whenever and wherever it wanted.

Anyway, Guisoon was at the World Workshop. She was at the weapons district since she wanted to buy a small weapon for self-defense.

She had naturally taken Lee Gun’s side when he was disparaged. However, she wasn’t doing it because she wanted to help him.

It was understandable since she didn’t look kindly at Lee Gun. She was just annoyed that they judged his skills without seeing him at work. Moreover, she really didn’t like the Capricorn disciples.

‘At the very least, God-nim is serious when he makes his items.’

Lee Gun was so serious about it that the sound of him hammering would come from his room at four in the morning. It had made Hugo chase him out of the house.

Lee Gun didn’t even think about his actions when he pounded the hammer at four in the morning. He would just grumble all night to the Secretary about his friend chasing him out in his underwear while taking her to the pub to eat chicken. The problem was that he ate all the chicken legs and wings for himself.

The Serpent Bearer was a Zodiac that Guisoon couldn’t get herself to like.

Back to the present…

‘What? They want him to make it with these ingredients?’

These ingredients had been brought forth since they were about to face off, yet they were all low-quality ingredients.

At best, one would be able to make a B- or C-rank item with it. So those craftsmen giving him just low-quality ingredients to make an S-rank weapon was mind-boggling.

“I checked the ingredients, so let’s start. Let me use one of the workbenches.”

The Secretary was about to lose her mind as she watched Lee Gun nonchalantly take the ingredients.

She trembled as she grabbed Lee Gun. “L-Look here. Have you lost your mind, God-nim?”

“Why?”

“What do you mean, why? I know God-nim has a good eye! While they don’t look like it, these are all rank five ingredients.”

Lee Gun was thrown off. “What the hell? Are you able to differentiate such things?”

“I do! I learned it when I was under Hailey-nim… That’s not important right now!”

Normally, the ingredients used in the workshop were ranked from one to nine. Moreover, rank five was the minimum rank needed to barely make a weapon.

Basically, these cheap ingredients could produce C-rank items, and such items would break after cutting down a couple of monsters.

S-rank weapons could be made with only rank one ingredients.

‘At the very least, he needs rank 2 ingredients if he wants to make an A-rank weapon!’

In truth, the ingredients that Lee Gun had joyfully picked up were at least one rank higher than that!

It was unclear if his eyes or senses were almost supernatural. Others checked the ranks using machines, yet Lee Gun identified them by eyeballing them.

“They are clearly trying to screw you over, so why aren’t you saying anything…” She soon stopped speaking. Guisoon screamed as if she had a realization. “Ahhk! This is nuts. I knew you were an M. Do you perhaps enjoy this too?!”

Guisoon received a hit. However, she didn’t care as she continued to cling to Lee Gun. “Damn it! I’ll cuss you out instead of them! Just don’t do something that’ll embarrass yourself in front of people!”

Lee Gun uproariously laughed. “What’s going on? Normally, you would wish me to fail.”

Guisoon flinched. She ground her teeth.

‘I’ve witnessed it.’

Anyway, she didn’t like people mocking Lee Gun without knowing his skill level. Moreover, she hated seeing the Capricorn temple preen after they had cheated. “I guess it is to my benefit if you get disparaged.”

“Alright. I’ll head toward the workbench.”

“Ahhhk! This is wrong! A match has to be done under the same conditions!” Guisoon desperately clung to Lee Gun. “I don’t want others to call you an idiot! That means I was caught by an idiot! I’d rather you give me a massive amount of work so that I can die from being overworked!”

“What the hell are you talking about?” Lee Gun ignored Guisoon, who dangled off him, and headed toward the workbench.

The master craftsmen were guiding him toward a location with a fire. They did so because Lee Gun hadn’t brought up the part that worried them.

The master craftsman asked slyly.

“Will you be fine without the tools that you usually use?”

“Are you lacking any ingredients?”

“It’s fine. We’re working under the same conditions. The ingredients are decent enough. I’ll just make an S-rank weapon with them.”

The master craftsmen inwardly laughed as they guided Lee Gun.

‘He didn’t notice the ingredients!’

‘Of course! Who do you think prepared them?’

The master craftsmen of the Capricorn temple were considered great for a reason.

‘I’m confident in my ability to make the ingredients look decent.’

The Capricorn temple’s workshop sold weapons as well as ingredients. The master craftsmen and Constructs affiliated with other temples came to buy them.

The normal ingredients were usually received from the Zodiac. Some were excavated from where the monsters appeared. The uncorrupted parts of the monsters were removed and taken back.

However, selling good ingredients was a waste, so these craftsmen processed cheap ingredients to make them look like a different rank of ingredients before selling them.

It was an act of fraud, but the craftsmen were the type of people to buff out dented items and sell them at retail value. They even charged labor costs.

‘As expected, he’s an amateur. He didn’t notice it.’

‘He is a fake.’

Hugo had praised Lee Gun, and Kevin had shown interest in him. That was why the master craftsmen had been a bit worried.

‘This is our victory.’

‘There is no way he can make an S-rank item with that.’

Of course, Lee Gun could notice it later on, but he probably wouldn’t be able to say something out of embarrassment. Him not being able to detect it would make him a laughingstock.

Therefore, the craftsmen quickly whispered to their comrades.

“Since it turned out like this, let’s gather all the disciples within the tower.”

“It’ll be better if we call for the reporters.”

“As more people watch this scene, our reputation and faith will rise.”

The craftsmen decided to head toward the workbench used for lectures. It was a great place for a crowd to gather.

The names of Lee Gun and the Genius Workshop caused waves beyond imagination.

“Wow! It’s Lee Gun!”

“What the hell? They really are going to have a manufacturing match?”

“They are going to make S-rank items?”

The large workspace that was usually employed by the Genius Workshop for lectures was filled with people. They ranged from the master craftsmen of the tower to the people who had teleported here after hearing the rumor.

“Is Lee Gun planning on taking the Capricorn now that he took the Taurus?”

“Look at that! Isn’t that the Ten Star Taylor?”

“The generals are here too!”

“I can see why they are here. They bought the enmity of the Genius Workshop by asking for a quote from Lee Gun. I bet they are nervous.”

“The Virgo Saint came too?”

“Of course… Huh?! Why is he here?! He isn’t someone who would come to this old workshop.”

Despite his appearance, Kevin had the second-most disciples in the world, and he was considered the second strongest.

Kevin ground his teeth. He was causing more of a stir than the Ten Star by his appearance. “Why do I have to get a room for that woman?”

On the top side of the World Workshop was a seven-star hotel. Within this hotel were a casino, a sparring ring, and a hospital facility. It was a facility where the manufactured weapons could be tested.

When Lee Gun had called him to the hotel, Kevin had assumed Lee Gun wanted to test out a weapon he had made by sparring with him. That was why he had come here as soon as possible.

However…

“She fainted before we had the chance to eat. I need a place where she can rest. Give me your hotel room. I heard the Virgo temple rented out the best floor.”

Why did he have to pay for the room that’ll house the unconscious Hailey? Also, why were the two of them at a hotel? Why was she unconscious?

Lee Gun had calmly replied, “Since the continental breakfast is good, I thought it would be a waste to just eat dinner here. I told her we should spend the night here, and she fainted.”

She had a good reason to faint. It seemed Lee Gun had planned on sleeping in the next room, but… Hailey had fainted before she could hear that.

Anyway, Kevin became angry after Lee Gun took his best room from him. He didn’t mind Hailey. It was a request from Lee Gun, so he would do it even if he didn’t like it. However, that wasn’t the problem.

“Lee Gun is having a manufacturing battle? Did the Capricorn disciples lose their minds?” Kevin spoke as he propped his chin on his hand.

The disciples near him agreed with him.

“I guess so. They are enraged, and they plan on making Lee Gun-nim into a laughingstock.”

“Anyway, Lee Gun-nim may be amazing, but how could he make an S-rank weapon on the spot like this? There are also a lot of onlookers.”

“Those Capricorn bastards are probably used to this situation…”

“Then there is the blueprint. Isn’t it from the hit series that the Capricorn temple makes every month? Of course, they will be able to make their own item.”

“Ah. I feel bad for Lee Gun-nim… Why did he agree to a match that’s advantageous for the Capricorn temple…”

Kevin scoffed at those words. They feel bad for him?

‘Which side deserves the pity? I wonder.’

At that moment…

“Wow! He’s here! That’s the Ten Star of the Capricorn temple!”

Lee Gun had been touching the workbench when he heard the shouts from people.

He laughed in derision.

“Oh. I know him. Isn’t he a Ten Star? Was his name Taylor? Isn’t he famous?”

Guisoon, who was dragged along as a helper, looked dumbfounded. “You’re more famous…?”

At the same time, familiar faces appeared on the workbench next to Lee Gun. One of them was the current head of the Genius Workshop, the Ten Star of the Capricorn temple. He had become the head when the Goat Saint had gone missing.

Five helpers were standing next to him. They were the most famous master craftsmen in the world, and they had made their appearance.

“Taylor!”

Their entrance lasted only a moment. The Ten Star looked at Lee Gun, who was by himself, and his face hardened. “Didn’t I say we’ll lend you master craftsmen to aid you?”

“That’s right. We will be making a great sword. It’s a large class weapon for the Constructs. A siege weapon will be made too. It’ll be hard to do everything by yourself.”

Lee Gun laughed in derision. “I don’t need any of that.”

“!”

“Whatever. Let’s hurry up and start this.” Lee Gun took a glance at the blueprint.

The items they would have to make would be a ballista-type weapon used in sieges, a large class weapon, and daggers. Manufacturing such a large quantity of weapons by oneself would be impossible.

The star master craftsmen spoke. “Excuse me, Lee Gun-nim. It’ll be hard to manufacture all of them by yourself in two weeks. It isn’t too late to…”

“I don’t need it.”

At that moment, the master craftsmen almost screamed.

It was to be expected since Lee Gun had thrown the blueprint he had been reading into the furnace.

The master craftsmen reacted in fright.

“What are you doing?”

“Hmm? What? I saw it, so I don’t need it anymore. That’s why I burned it.”

“What…!”

“Don’t tell me you have to keep looking at it to make the weapon?”

The master craftsmen ground their teeth when they saw Lee Gun’s spirited response.

‘He’s bluffing!’

“Understood. The deadline is two weeks. It’s until the flame on the Capricorn sculpture goes out.”

“Deal.”

At that moment, the flame was lit on the Capricorn sculpture.

The audience cheered. At the same time, the Capricorn master craftsmen got busy.

“You guys make the set of daggers since we have to make the largest quantity!”

“Yes!”

“The thing that’ll take the longest will be putting the data and power into the siege weapon. It’ll take us three days just to shape it. Hurry!”

“Yes!”

Suddenly…

“Wow! What the hell is that!!!”

“That’s crazy?!”

The audience members suddenly screamed because of Lee Gun.
