chapter 22
“Honestly, I take pride in my body. But that doesn’t mean I don’t want to be a spectacle.”
Kim Han-ul gritted his teeth and said.
“Do you know what it feels like to fight alone in black tights when others are wearing fancy armor?”
I do not know.
i don’t even want to know
“It even became gigantic and stands out, so on the day I accidentally open the top unstable gate and fight wearing it, the news that came that day is covered with my black tights… no tights.”
I am also aware that I am a jerk.
“That’s what I always dreamed of. I hope that clothes that change freely according to the size of the body will come out. Then I saw the video. Armor that can fly freely and be completed. I thought then. Maybe that armor is exactly what I was hoping for?”
A simple but desperate wish at the same time.
“Performance of armor? Of course, the better the better, but more than that, I want the function as a piece of clothing. Clothes that can be freely transformed. Would that be possible?”
As a man, I agree a hundred times with that urgency.
It’s said that you’ll be half-naked every battle, but who wouldn’t mind?
“I’ll give you any amount of money.”
Are you giving me any money?
If it was Kim Han-ul, the accumulated wealth would be enormous.
In addition, in a situation where you might have to fight the undead army, just winning the favor of a top-notch Awakener like Kim Han-ul is meaningful in its own way.
‘I was just thinking of making money by selling the Commander, but this continues like this again. Shall we use this opportunity to gain favor and earn some money?’
If it’s social status, it’s status, if it’s money, it’s a person who has nothing bad because they’re close to money.
I’ve never made such a transformative large armor, so it’s going to take quite a bit of work to create an algorithm, but this is enough to motivate my troublesome body to move.
It’s much more comfortable this way than going to the gate and running.
“Are there many Awoken who have a similar situation?”
Then Kim Han-ul shook his head and said.
“There are not many Awoken with the ability to become gigantic. Even if you look at the world, there are barely over a hundred people.”
that’s a bit unfortunate
I was thinking of selling it to other giant Awakeners as well, but the market is too small.
Anyway, it looks like it’s an opportunity to make money with a one-off event, but they make clothes roughly and make money…
But then, a thought passes through my mind.
“ah!”
In the past, when I was still weak and just started making macros, I asked for help to supplement macros that were full of loopholes.
To attach skeletons to the bodies of knight-like fighters and measure their movements, and use them in macro production.
But even the mercenaries, not to mention the knights, went mad saying that they couldn’t attach the blasphemous undead to themselves, and in the end they had no choice but to head to the bare ground.
But isn’t it that one of the strongest people in Korea is willing to wear my skeleton of their own will?
“May I know what your main weapon is?”
“I use martial arts. It’s also my job to carry a weapon to use when I grow up every time.”
more perfect
If you don’t have a separate weapon, you can get all of Kim Han-ul’s fighting skills intact just by copying all the movements with a skeleton.
‘Undead can make as many as they want as long as they have enough money, but it’s not a macro for combat.’
My enemy is an undead army that moves with macros that I have been working on for nearly 30 years.
In order to deal with that undead army, I also have to restore a comparable macro again.
In that respect, the battle data of a top-notch Awakener like Kim Han-ul will definitely be of great help to me now.
I nodded and said.
“It seems possible.”
Then Kim Han-ul smiled brightly and said.
“Is that true!?”
“Instead, if I do it once, I won’t waste it. Prepare with sturdy materials. Bones of the highest level monsters possible. Preferably with a larger size. It shouldn’t have been long since he died.”
Originally, I was planning to make a rough outfit according to my wish, but I can’t make it rough since I have another purpose of securing combat data.
“Are you strong? That means…”
“A suit of armor. I’ll make it. It’s also nice and works well. Instead, it will be rather expensive.”
Then Kim Han-ul said with a thrilled expression.
“I can be satisfied with just a bunch of clothes, but even the performance? You know what? I haven’t worn armor even once since I woke up.”
“Try it on this time. I will make it right.”
At my words, Kim Han-ul clenched his fists and said,
“All right. I’ll run to the gate now and get it right away! Do you need anything else?”
Let’s show off our skills after a long time.
If the data collection armor is broken, I’m in trouble too.
“First of all, I need a lot of essence, gold and silver. Also, prepare some titanium.”
I’ll make you armor that you can wear for the rest of your life.
“Whoa.”
As Kim Han-ul walked around the office, team leader Yoon shook his head and said,
“Can’t you just stay still? Crazy.”
“Will you calm down? It might be the first time you have clothes that look like clothes.”
People might think it strange why Kim Han-ul, who is an S-level strongman, is making such a fuss because of his clothes, but his aide, Team Leader Yoon, knew better than anyone how much stress Kim Han-ul was under.
Kim Han-ul, a real man with a muscular body, is a person who dislikes tight-fitting clothes to the extent that he enjoys wearing loose-fitting clothes on a regular basis.
Of course, as Kim Han-ul, he hated the image of himself turning into a jerk every time he used his ability.
In particular, when I think of Kim Han-ul, who was in despair when his daughter, who had just entered puberty, said that it would be nice not to see her father dressed in the news on the news, it was understandable.
Of course, it wasn’t that Kim Han-ul didn’t make an effort.
Kim Han-ul has tried everything he can, such as trying out clothes to wear after becoming gigantic and changing the design to make it look like a swimsuit.
But none of them have been a fundamental solution.
It didn’t make sense to dress up for every battle, and the swimsuit design was so flashy that it only added to the embarrassment.
“How long did you say you had left?”
“They said they would finish it in a few days and contact me.”
“So how many days are there?”
“How do I know that? Can you try again?”
Then Kim Han-ul was taken aback and said.
“···no. don’t rush Don’t make it in a hurry and ruin the clothes.”
It was Han Ji-hyeok who appeared like a comet in such a situation.
An armor that is completed by freely flying bones.
The hope that if that technology could be applied to gigantism, Han Ji-hyeok’s willing acceptance proceeded in a flash.
From the bones of monsters caught at the A-level gate to various precious metals and essences, Kim Han-ul found the materials he wanted, whether he hunted them himself or bought them with money, regardless of means and methods.
I want to catch S-class monsters and give them as materials, but S-class gates are rare gates that only come out a few times a year throughout Korea, so you can’t get them freely just because you want to, and there’s even a precondition that you’ve just died. In the end, Kim Han-ul had no choice but to be content with being an A-class monster.
Of course, even with that alone, the bones of an A-class monster, which are much more expensive than the bones of a B-class monster, go in as much as Kim Han-ul’s size, and the essence and various sub-materials are literally a huge amount of money.
Anyway, it took a lot of money, but it was not a waste at all for Kim Han-ul.
Maybe this is your last chance to get some clothes.
“I hope it comes out nicely.”
“It will come out. Did you see my silver doll design?”
“that’s right. It was cool. That’s why I’m more attached. Anyway, sorry for breaking it.”
Team leader Yoon said with a smile.
“All right. It’s already past. Anyway, if a really good result comes out, I’ll have to do good to CEO Han in the future.”
“uh?”
“A Class Awakener and the only person in the world who can make custom clothes for the guild leader. Isn’t this enough reason to be close friends?”
“… is that so?”
After thinking for a while, Kim Han-ul said.
“Should I invite you to join the guild?”
“You can’t come in, can you? I already have a lot of money Besides, even at a glance, he is a person who is only interested in making money by doing business. You don’t even come near the gate, do you?”
“Come to think of it, why did someone so uninterested get involved in the unstable gate incident then?”
“It was close to the company, so he must have intervened. Besides, since it’s the same skeleton, you might have been curious.”
“is it?”
After thinking for a while, Kim Han-ul said.
“Come to think of it, he is a very strange person. You seem to be greedy for money, but why didn’t you show your ability from the beginning and earn money? I was going to reveal it like this anyway. Besides, even after revealing his ability, he doesn’t even come close to the gate. Isn’t it normal for an awakened person to want to become stronger while gaining combat experience through the gate?”
Team leader Yoon said with a sad expression.
“There must be circumstances. Sometimes there are awakeners like that. Religious beliefs and whatnot, but rejecting violence or something.”
“If it was that kind of problem, I wouldn’t have intervened in the last unstable gate. hmm. Do you have any trauma about the gate? If that’s the case, I’d understand.”
That time when we were talking about things like that.
A text message arrives on Team Leader Yoon’s cell phone.
After checking the text, team leader Yoon said.
“It’s done!!”
At that word, Kim Han-ul’s doubts, which had been feeling strange until just now, flew away in an instant to the other side of his memory.
Kim Han-ul said with an excited expression.
“Let’s go right now!!”
“Are you here right away?”
Han-ul Kim and team leader Yoon ran to the factory, scared to contact them.
Kim Han-ul opened his eyes and said.
“Where are you? Finished?”
You were in a hurry.
I pointed to the armor covered with a cloth next to it and said.
“Let’s try kicking it yourself.”
Kim Han-ul approached with an excited expression, grabbed the cloth tightly, and threw it upward.
Then, various ornaments appeared and full-body bone armor in harmony with silver and black.
It was a collaboration between Baek Sang-ho and the head of the emergency response team, who added sharp decorations here and there as points to look cool.
“Ohhhhh!!”
Kim Han-ul clenched his fists and said.
“Is this my armor? Is this really my armor? Can I wear it even if I become gigantic?”
“This is a daily mode. Try it on, I will help you.”
Kim Han-ul started putting on full-body armor by teaching him how to wear it.
Kim Han-ul, wearing the armor, looked at me and said.
“Can I make it bigger now?”
“for a moment.”
As I snapped my fingers, several six-legged transport skeletons waiting nearby walked towards me.
However, unlike the transport type, which usually has an empty basket on top, it has a peculiar appearance with bones on top.
“Let me introduce you. This is an armor support skeleton modified from a carrying skeleton. The bones here will form part of the armor after being gigantic. Do you see Unit 1 over there?”
I pointed to the skeleton with the number 1 written on it and said.
“Stay in front of him and spread your hands and legs wide open.”
At that, Hanul Kim approached Unit 1 without hesitation and spread his arms and legs open.
Then, a red glow flashes from the armor Kim Han-ul was wearing.
“When that glow comes out, it means that preparations for gigantism are over. Make it gigantic.”
Kim Han-ul, who swallowed dry saliva with a nervous expression, said.
“Giant.”
Then, Hanul Kim’s body swelled up in an instant.
And along Kim Han-ul’s body, the joints of the bones that made up the daily mode armor widen, and the gigantic auxiliary skeletons standing in a row behind them dismantled and filled the gaps.
how long has it been like that
All of the 5 gigantic auxiliary skeletons disappeared as part of the armor, and all that was left was Kim Han-ul, a giant 10M tall, and a gorgeous bone armor covering his body.
Kim Hanul, who was looking down at his gigantic body, clenched his fists and said.
“Is this… my armor?”
I said with a bright smile.
“Thanks to the good materials you brought, it will be quite strong. Of course, there are also cool ones. Do you like it?”
“I like it. It’s really… so much nicer and more perfect than I expected.”
At that time, team leader Yoon, who was watching the giantization process from below, spoke in an excited voice.
“Guild leader! It was like the man of steel in the movie! The bones just gathered together and turned into giant armor… Big!!!”
“Is that enough?”
Manager Yoon raised his thumb and said.
“Cheap! best!”
Then Kim Han-ul looked up at the sky and said.
“The clothes I have always dreamed of. Even this quality. Now… will I be able to be a father who is not ashamed of my daughter?”
“Sure! Jea would be proud too!”
Kim Han-ul, who was silent for a moment, spoke.
“How do I unlock it?”
“Spread it out the same way, and when the blue light comes on, say release and release the gigantism.”
At my words, Kim Han-ul spreads his arms and a blue light comes on.
“clear.”
Kim Han-ul, who lifted the giantization like that.
Then, the bones fall out in the reverse order of when they were made, and the gigantic auxiliary skeleton is being completed behind Kim Han-ul.
After all unlocks were completed, Kim Han-ul, who returned to his original form wearing the basic armor, said.
“I unlocked my ability, but I don’t have to wear new clothes… CEO Han Ji-hyeok.”
“yes.”
“Representative Han wouldn’t know. how moved i am right now CEO Han made my lifelong wish come true.”
Then he came to me and took my hands and waved them up and down.
“thank you. Representative Han is my benefactor.”
“What. Still, to be honest, the price-performance ratio will be a little lower.”
With this amount of money, an ordinary Awakener could buy and wear the finest armor made of S-class monster materials.
Of course, since the size was increased to fit Kim Han-ul’s size and even a variable type with poor durability was applied, the performance as an armor was honestly a bit low.
“Still, since the base is an A-class monster, it should be able to withstand a few moderate attacks, and it should be hardened with special attention to weak points such as joints and abdomen, so it should not be broken in the slightest.”
At my words, Hanul Kim shook his head and said.
“Didn’t I tell you? I think I would have been satisfied with just the clothes that were unreasonable. This is enough to move beyond satisfaction.”
Kim Han-ul shook my hand again and said.
“From now on, I, Kim Han-ul, will always be on CEO Han’s side. If you have any difficulties, just tell me!”
Would you like to get your own tailor?
I’m fine.
Quite a few things can easily be passed with the three letters of Kim Han-ul’s name.
“ah! I need to calculate the balance. how much can i give you? You can say anything.”
Having succeeded in winning favor, it’s time to win the second goal, money.
But if you take it too much, the good feeling you got at best can turn into a crush.
then···
“Give me 3 billion.”
“3 billion? will you be able to do that? I will give you 5 billion.”
It’s a level where I saw a fairly small margin compared to my efforts to make this one algorithm if it was 3 billion because I was at an age where I had taken profits several times as a sage horse, but it doesn’t matter.
Because you can extract money in a way that is less repulsive.
“I will only take 3 billion. Instead, why don’t you invest some money in Seron? To be honest, it’s a good investment. I mean, can I borrow some money?”
“You want to borrow money?”
“I am preparing to relocate to a factory with a large site, but money is not enough.”
In any case, in order to continuously secure combat data, Kim Han-ul must continue to wear this armor in the future.
Of course, repair and reinforcement work on the armor is essential in the process.
But doesn’t Kim Han-ul know this?
So they use this as a justification to borrow money and use it as seed money.
Do you want to keep wearing clothes?
Then lend me some money.
do you have a lot of money
I said with a smile.
“If you lend money instead, we will guarantee lifetime A/S and upgrades. In a word, it means that you can use it with peace of mind without worrying about breaking. How is it? Sounds like a good suggestion.”
