The runewords engraved on the stem were indicating a single word and sentence.

[Destruction. Your flame will burn everything.]

The green light was slowly disappearing and the runewords fading.

Oh, I should write that down.

Unintentionally, Ji-Ha took out the infinite magic book and picked up a feather pen but realizing that there was no ink, he was embarrassed.

However, just in time, a few Theradrones brought a plate made of leaves on their heads.

There was sticky green ink in it.

[Green Herb Extract]

Where did you get this from?

Even if he asks like that, he wont be able to get an answer.

The insects put down the ink plates and ran away.

Yoo Ji-Ha looked at the Theradrone Warrior and discovered that he had eyes.

Beneath the pincers were two bright black eyes.

Its pretty eyes.

It felt as if those eyes were saying-

Use this ink to write runewords in the magic book before it disappears.

Okay.

He opened a large book between his laps and wrote down the runewords with a feather pen.

Runewords were written on paper, which could not be written with any other pen.

The Runeword of destruction has been completed.

Only then that the Theradrone Warrior returns to the hole in the ground as if satisfied.

[The Scroll of Change: Destruction.

The destructive power of rune magic increases.]

This is the magic scroll of change. Can I rip it?

It was a bit depressing to tear the inside of this antique book.

The thickness of the book is not a trivial matter, but the inside is quite thick, so it might be about 100 pages.

98, 99, 100 pages.

Looking at the name of the Infinite Magic Book, it seems like it will still be 100 pages even if he rips the inside, right?

Maybe it is.

Yoo Ji-Ha laughed inwardly and tore the inner paper.

It was quite plausible to roll it up and tie with the herb stem the Theradrone Warrior was biting.

Its looks okay.

There was no significant difference from the scrolls found in the dungeon.

The question is, does this really work?

Loosening the herb stem and cutting it in half by applying force to the paper.

The runewords then lit up, and the paper burned with fire.

Up to this point, it is the same as a normal rune magic scroll.

..

However, no magical phenomenon occurred.

The status window has not changed either.

Is this the end?

He got a little frustrated.

He was expecting a little bit because of the magic of change, but nothing happened.

Wait, it said that the destructive power of rune magic increases, so maybe a magician should use it.

But even in that case, there should be a change in the status window.

In such a way like temporary characteristics appear and then disappear.

Does it really have no effect?

It doesnt matter.

Its good enough that he made scrolls, so he thought it would be nice to put a few jars and display them.

So what if he cant use the ancient magic that he expected?

Yoo Ji-Ha then opened the book and began to write a straight rune word on the remaining paper.

scribble scribble

The writing was organized and there was an impression of an ancient magician from another world carving with real runewords.

After making a few scrolls and counting the pieces, it was exactly 100.

It really is an infinite magic book.

With a small smile, Yoo Ji-Ha closed the old book.

All thats left is

Is there a typhoon?

The forest was a mess.

He rolled up his sleeves and pants and started cleaning.

The tree and Theradrones were watching him, working for the forest.

Welcome.

This is it, right?

Yeah. This is the place that Uncle CheolHeon told me about.

But doesnt it look a little shabby?

Shh. He can hear everything.

Hey, its because you dont know. As for what I drank before, it worked

Several hunters sneaked into the store.

Recently, the number of customers in Yoo Ji-Has store has increased considerably.

This is probably because information about the solar apple and winter strawberry leaked.

It was only a matter of time before the information that only ranker level hunters knew was known to other hunters.

In addition, the overall quality of the potion has improved.

Yoo Ji-Ha found out how to dilute the extracts of various fruits in the forest of dream to give the desired effect.

In the past, if he made a potion with a solar apple, the ether consumption was changed to 0 for 14 seconds unconditionally, but now it can be reduced to about 5 seconds.

Some potions occupying a lot of space on the shelves may seem cheaper compared to potions supplied by Hunting Grounds or witchs cauldron, but the effect was superior.

Word of mouth spreads quickly.

A hunter picked up a poison resistance potion and muttered in a proud voice.

This, its this. It was very cheap. But the effect is amazing. You wouldnt believe it can withstand the spiger poison.

Spiger? Its not a big deal if you have a lot any poison resistance. What percentage did it go up?

It went up by 20%.

Nice. Its cheap. And it can handle spiger poison? Then I should buy more.

Then, he glances at the owner.

Excuse me, can I buy all of these?

One per person.

It often happens that one person sweeps away everything, so he changed it this way.

When Yoo Ji-Ha said so, the first hunter who had introduced the poison resistance potion mumbled.

What did I say? Didnt I tell you not to be greedy?

I just wished I could buy them all.

Buy one, just one. Write it down and come back next time.

The hunters bought each type of potion then looked around the store to see what else was missing.

One said, pointing to the scroll of the jar-

What is this?

That was collected from the ruins. It wont do much but try tearing them one by one.

If you tear it, what magic will come out?

Well. I cant feel it so I wouldnt know.

The hunters unfolded the scroll and admired that the items transpired from the dungeon had an antique look.

There is something really cool about this runeword. How did you read this?

Destruction I know that word but then I dont know the next part.

Everything we learned at the academy is in vain.

Your flame will burn everything.

As Yoo Ji-Ha slurred like that, the hunters admired him.

I meant that. There seems to be something.

Wow, the writing is very straight. Do you think there is such a thing as a printing press in that world?

Mr. Hunter. You complain about the sword and the armor looks like made by dogs and its not reliable.

Thats right.

He wont even imagine that the writer of the handwriting is in front of him.

Yoo Ji-Ha just smiled a little.

One person tore the scroll, but nothing happened.

In succession, the scroll caught fire and disappeared into the air.

The hunters looked closely at the status window, but when they found out that there was no change, they were a little disappointed.

Well, theres nothing much with it.

As long as you had bought your potion. Lets go, lets go.

Boss, we are going.

Thank you.

Soon, a bright red sports car stopped in front of the store.

The exhaust sound was louder than the car HyeJin had driven before.

SeongHo-Hyung said that a car like that spills 10,000 won on the floor.

He doesnt know who it is, but it must be a high ranker.

The person who got out of the car was a woman with hair color similar as the car.

Because her hair color is so intense, Korean hunters all know who she is.

Cha HwaYeon, ranked 5th in the Hunter Ranking and leads the Eternal Flame Guild.

What reason did she, who is said to be one of the best in the world for her one-shot firepower, come to a shabby general store?

Tick. Tick. Tick.

The sound of high heels tickled Yoo Ji-Has ears.

Hunters usually dont wear those uncomfortable shoes, which is strange.

As soon as she entered the store, Yoo Ji-Ha greeted her.

Welcome.

..

HwaYeon did not enter the store completely and looked around the store lightly.

A bit of disappointment and regret were etched on her face.

I heard that people in our guild come here often these days.

Well I dont really distinguish costumers.

It means he doesnt know who they are.

As she entered the store, she crossed her arms and went around the shelves while making the sound of high heels.

Its a small shop, so she returned to her place in a matter of seconds.

There doesnt seem to be anything special Right?

Yes. There is nothing special about it.

I heard that there were solar apples and winter strawberries before, where are they?

I made all of them into potions. Dungeon does not open indefinitely.

AHA.

HwaYeon looked at Yoo Ji-Has face.

Indeed, he seemed to have a good-looking face.

It didnt look like he would lie and deceive anyone.

However, it is very dangerous to judge a persons personality only by looking at his or her face.

Yeah, he had the same stupid face as that guy.

A regular who stalked her with his sweet look and voice.

HwaYeon almost exploded in anger inside the store, but she barely held it in.

In fact, the reason she came here wasnt a big deal.

Kim HyungSeok said he might be lucky once or twice, but if it continues, it should be considered a characteristic.

It would mean that the frequent opening of dungeons around him may be his ability.

If you think about it, it is beneficial to keep him by your side.

She approached Yoo Ji-Ha with a large book open on his lap and spoke.

You must have spoken to our alchemist a few times. How was it?

You mean Mr. CheolHeon? Well He was very considerate.

Yes. If you work for such a person, it will be convenient. Our guild has good facilities. Magicians are the most common, but there are also quite a few alchemists. It will be helpful if you come.

I like it here.

Here? Did you inherit it from someone?

It is similar. I cant leave because its a place Ive grown attached to.

Yoo Ji-Ha had no intention of leaving the place his parents left him.

She felt stubborn like a donkey and gave up neatly.

Because hes not a great talent anyway.

Potions can be created by the guild.

Moreover, there was a rumor that these days, potions with the original monstrous effect do not appear.

It seemed that the sugar content of the solar apple was also dropping.

HwaYeon glanced at the shelves and ordered a few bottles of potions.

Still, its the minimum courtesy as a guest.

Yoo Ji-Ha finished packing and suggested tearing up one of the scrolls.

She snorted.

You want a fire magician to tear a scroll?

She thought that a rune magic scroll could never replace a magician.

It was in reality.

Yoo Ji-Ha said with a smile.

Its like a lucky message with no effect.

If its a lucky message I hope the misfortune doesnt cling to me.

Her fingers spread the scroll.

Your flames will burn everything Well, I like the sentence.

She like the writing, but it must have been engraved by a printer anyway.

When the scroll was torn in half and turned into flames, HwaYeon wiped her hands and went out of the store.

Ill never come here anymore.

Brrrrrr-

The bright red sports car started with a rough exhaust sound.

Yoo Ji-Ha opened the book again.

After a while, the Eternal Flame Guild was assigned a dungeon.

It was a dungeon infested with spider-type monsters called Spiger.

Dangerous monsters attack in groups as usual, but since they are vulnerable to fire magic, the Eternal Flame Guild took over.

HwaYeon decided to attack this dungeon herself.

Dark and humid jungle.

As soon as the magicians set foot on the ground, spider webs flew all over the place.

Spigers like to use a tactic that tie up intruders by blowing cobwebs, and then spit out venom to kill them.

However, it was not much in front of the magicians who melt monsters with tremendous firepower.

The spiders web that flew in first was blocked by barrier magic.

Concentrate on one point! 10clock, 25 meters!

When the charismatic voice designated the attack point, the wands and weapons of the magicians all started to glow at once.

The runeword was activated, and magic with tremendous firepower poured out.

Boom-booom!

An explosion that shook the earth occurred.

One side of the jungle was completely destroyed, and the surrounding trees were swept away.

HwaYeon, who was about to wipe out a few spigers, was startled and lowered her wand.

Gee, guild leader, how the hell did this happen?

The firepower has increased greatly!

..

It was impossible.

HwaYeon unconsciously looked at her wand with rune stones in it.

Why does the runeword seem to shine brighter than usual?

As she cast her flame magic once more, the embers became bombs and pounded the earths surface.

Boom! Boom!

Ordinary fire magic became this powerful.

The guild members, who misunderstood that her skill had risen, congratulated her.

Congratulations, noona!

The guild leader is really amazing.

Oh no, Its not like that

HwaYeon had to work hard to resolve the misunderstanding.

An ancient magical ether surrounded them, but no one noticed.

That day, the Eternal Flame Guild broke the record for clearing the Spiger Dungeon in the shortest time.
