Chapter 419: Ski Resort (3)
It had been quite some time since Baek Yu-Seol last stepped foot in Ha Tae-Ryeong's secluded hideout. After absorbing most of the knowledge he could from this place, he had swiftly returned to Stella, leaving his visits here scarce and fleeting.
"... Should I clean up a bit?"
Although he had never even seen Ha Tae-Ryeong in person, to Baek Yu-Seol, Ha Tae-Ryeong was both a mentor and a lifesaver.
Ha Tae-Ryeong had given him a remarkable insight when Baek Yu-Seol had hit a major bottleneck in his growth and could only rely on the game system.
The hideout resembled little more than a forgotten storeroom, its surfaces blanketed in layers of dust. The furniture - a bed and desk that might have been used centuries ago - was so aged and rusted that it no longer had a place in the modern world.
It was pointless to try salvaging such relics. And since no one else was likely to use this space again, Baek Yu-Seol discarded the useless debris and swept away the dust and clutter.
When he took a closer look at the old weapons, he noticed a wide variety. It appeared that Ha Tae-Ryeong had once experimented with not only swords but also spears, axes, and other weapons.
Yet in the end, it seemed he had settled on a sword... One designed to cleave through both magic and shields.
Then, Baek Yu-Seol found a book.
