Chapter 208: Defense Specialist (4)

“Myth… a mythical catalog?”

As Yeongwoo’s eyes widened, chairman Dogo, as if he had known all along, crossed his arms and said.

―The true value of the Bastard lies there.

It was a kind of Dogo-style bluffing, as Yeongwoo, who had been insignificant because he had handed over the Bastard, could open the myth catalog.

“Th-The Myth Catalog… So, it’s a catalog that only registers mythological equipnt that you’ll acquire in the future? Will I really get a second myth?”

Yeongwoo said with a humble gesture.

Of course, having obtained a mythical weapon in just a few days after the reset, he had never thought that this would be his first and last myth.

Yeongwoo was born insignificant, but he was a very ambitious and mischievous being for an insignificant person.

And above all.

‘If the chairman considered handing over the Bastard even considering the myth catalog… there must be a reason, right? Like another way to obtain a myth.’

Yeongwoo’s humble deanor in front of the chairman was precisely because of this.

Myth Catalog.

Isn’t the reason why the chairman gave this to Dogo’s advertising model because there is room for a second, and even a third, myth?

‘Chairman, please give so answers.’

When Yeongwoo looked at Dogo’s beast-shaped helt with anticipation, the chairman responded after a while, not in the form Yeongwoo had expected.

―Jeong Yeongwoo07. You already have the second myth in front of you.

“……?”

Yeongwoo tilted his head at the unexpected answer.

“What do you an? Ah, of course, Chairman, your military class is indeed a mythic existence……”

Yeongwoo was about to say this, but then he suddenly closed his mouth as sothing crossed his mind.

And then, at the right mont.

Ha.

The chairman spread his arms in a posture that seed arrogant.

―This body is the myth itself.

‘…Did he make a mistake today?’

But Yeongwoo felt like he knew what the chairman was talking about.

―Even the na of Dogo is written in that catalog.

‘…As expected.’

In other words, the Myth Catalog was not just about equipnt, but a conceptual catalog that dealt with everything ‘mythical’.

‘So ultimately, the chairman was just showing off his own achievents. It ans being included in the catalog.’

But at the sa ti.

“Then soone with the Myth Catalog might go hunting for mythical beings like you, Chairman. They could kill myths to fill the catalog…?”

Yeongwoo asked a question that could seem quite absurd, but the chairman, who exuded strength, straightened his shoulders as if proud.

―Indeed. There have been quite a few challengers.

And then, he muttered quietly while adjusting the greatsword at his waist.

―I am also the owner of the Myth Catalog. And today, I filled one slot in the catalog. Finally, that Bastard has found a use as well.

‘…Unbelievable.’

He was referring to the mber of council who raised questions about the Bastard’s transfer.

‘With such scoundrels everywhere, how on earth is the order of the universe being maintained?’

As Yeongwoo was thinking this, the current status of the Myth Catalog appeared before his eyes.

〔1〕

The ‘myth’ Yeongwoo had collected so far was only one.

From now on, if he acquires another mythical equipnt or defeats a mythical being, he can increase that number one by one.

‘How many myths has the chairman, the crazy king of destruction, collected?’

Without realizing it, Yeongwoo stared blankly at the distorted Dogo full-body armor, then his attention was drawn to the notification ssages that appeared one after another.

Swish!

“Huh?”

It was none other than.

【The sword body length is proportional to the user’s height.】

【25% increase in power against targets larger than the user.】

【Ignore 50% of physical damage reduction rate.】

【15% increase in power when using both hands.】

【20% increase in power for the first attack. Reactivated when switching weapons】

It was a special effect application ssage from the weapon catalog.

All the options of the collected weapon equipnt were applied collectively.

And finally.

[There are 2 unapplied effects.]

|Subject: Golden Trait, “Bastard”

|Reason: Ownership effect

A notice appeared stating that the automatic combat of the two-handed sword ‘Golden Trail’ and the unique effects of the Bastard would not be activated by the catalog.

‘Ah… That’s a sha. Not all effects are applied indiscriminately.’

In other words, to see the effects of the Bastard and the Golden Trail, they must be worn directly.

‘I thought I could see the flying Bastard.’

One fortunate point was that since the Golden Trail automatically followed its owner, there was no need to take it up and waste a slot. Now that “Preemptive Strike” was registered in the catalog, would he not frequently use slash attacks and thrusts?

「Preemptive Strike」 – Variant One-Handed Sword

【20% increase in power for the first attack. Reactivated when switching weapons】

‘Still, the Dullahan’s Sword effect is applied in the catalog. Hunting dragons will be much easier.’

Imagine the Bastard’s sword extending up to 6 ters. Yeongwoo had confidence that he could even scare off dragons.

Also, due to the Weapon Catalog, even though his firepower might not be great, his versatility had significantly increased.

‘My preparations to et my mother and uncles are all done.’

Swish!

Next, the status of the Weapon Catalog appeared.

[Weapon Catalog]

〔13〕

[Collection Effect: 10]

|Damage increase per registered weapon: 1%

“Oh.”

Indeed, it could be called a Weapon Catalog.

The collection effect from level 1 was extraordinary.

‘So if 100 weapons are registered, the damage increase would be 100%, right?’

Of course, judging by the operation of the previous catalog, it wouldn’t be easy to fill the catalog in a short ti since only equipnt with special effects could be registered in the catalog.

‘But ultimately, it’s a matter of ti. As long as there’s enough karma, I can buy equipnt as they co.’

In the end, it’s another karma issue.

However, the negotiations for defense expenses had been settled to so extent, and there was still plenty of advertising fees from Dogo that had not been received.

“Chairman… Thank you for all your hard work. I will work hard to spread the na of Dogo far and wide.”

As Yeongwoo bowed his head, Pofu, who was carrying him, also tilted his upper body and bowed to the chairman.

– Babat!

“However……”

After a while, Yeongwoo spoke up again.

―What is it? Tell .

“There’s still one unpaid reward.”

Yeongwoo gestured with his right thumb, index finger, and middle finger crossed, and the Dogo inside the helt chuckled knowingly.

―You’re right. Business deals must be clear.

[Translator – Night]

[Proofreader – Gun]

Then he gave so kind of signal to the sky again.

And then.

Boom!

This ti, instead of a pillar of light, a rough noise of physical force was heard as the problem ‘reward’ broke through the sky and crashed into the middle of Yeongwoo and Dogo.

Boom!

“Whoa!”

The volu of the ‘reward’ was larger than expected, so Yeongwoo instinctively stepped back but barely managed to hold his ground.

“What is this, Chairman?”

Yeongwoo asked while looking at the black lump of tal.

The equipnt summoned by the chairman was stuck in the ground in an oval shape, like the egg that contained Negwig.

However, its size was about 1 ter in diater, much smaller than Negwig.

‘He probably didn’t give another mount.’

As Yeongwoo cautiously examined the black tal, Dogo pointed at the reward with his finger.

―After reaching an agreent with the shareholders, it was decided to provide a newly developed product for demonstration. This is the reward for killing Kim Jong-un.

“…A new product?”

Of course, from Yeongwoo’s perspective, it was even more surprising to hear the na ‘Kim Jong-un’ pronounced by the chairman.

―Look.

Dogo descended slowly for the product demonstration.

Yeongwoo watched as he gradually approached the earth’s surface and the chairman’s toes.

He had never actually ‘landed’ on the earth because he always floated in the air.

Swoosh.

Finally, he descended to a place just 1 ter above the ground, then slowly drew out his sword and lightly scratched the ‘new product’ with its tip.

Sssht!

At that mont.

Crack!

With a fierce friction sound, the tal object, which had been in an oval shape, unfolded widely.

“…Huh?”

Yeongwoo finally realized what this reward was and widened his eyes.

“A cloak… This is a cloak, right?”

Moreover, this cloak was the sa product as the one the chairman was currently wearing.

―When you receive a summons soday, you too must wear the “Phase Armor.”

Phase Armor.

The ‘Phase Armor’ given by Dogo using transcendental language was a type of robe.

It was an equipnt term that indicated the affiliation, status, and cosmic aspect of the wearer.

Generally, it was made in the form of a cloak, but depending on one’s preference, it could also be a ritual sword, shield, or helt.

‘Especially when engaging in external activities, wearing Phase Armor is considered a cosmic etiquette. It’s almost essential when entering public institutions…’

For a while, Yeongwoo was unraveling the complex aning of “Phase Armor,” but he once again paid attention to the chairman’s recent words.

“Chairman, but when they say ‘summoned’ in space… it’s usually not for good, right?”

For example, like when the chairman was summoned by the committee.

‘Even if you haven’t paid taxes, you’ll probably be ordered to appear at the relevant agency…’

Dogo didn’t deny this.

―That’s right. So you should pay even more attention to cosmic etiquette and prepare for unavoidable choices.

“Unavoidable choices…?”

As Yeongwoo echoed the chairman’s words like a parrot, Dogo looked up at the sky again.

But this ti.

Poof!

It was to ascend into the sky.

As usual, it was about to leave as soon as it finished its business here.

“Ch-chairman! What do you an by unavoidable choices you just ntioned? Chairman!”

As Yeongwoo shouted while looking at Dogo, his commanding voice echoed from the sky.

—Rember Dogo’s business philosophy. I am Dogo, the King of Destruction, the one born on the battlefield, the master of the Hundred Thousand Swords Mountain,「Dogo」…!

‘What the heck… What is he saying?’

While Yeongwoo was frowning, the giant chain connecting the chairman’s tombstone to the anchor began to be sucked up into the sky.

Swish, swish, swish, swish!

Dogo began its voyage back into the vast universe.

“Chairman! Stay healthy…!”

Since he had to see them off anyway, Yeongwoo waved his arms into the air.

Then, the Seoul Strongest Swords, who had been listening to their conversation blankly, also waved their hands awkwardly.

Especially Gwanak Strongest Sword Jo Sangik.

“…Yeongwoo seems to have a tough life as well.”

Watching the gigantic tombstone of the “New Humanity,” disappear beyond the sky, he licked his lips in admiration.

Poof!

And in the place where the chairman had left.
