Transmigrated into the Gacha Game I Abandoned for 10 Years

Elena originally had no great interest in Magnifying Glasses.

After all, she has always been the type to prefer fame over gold, both internally and externally.

Thus, Elena honestly couldn’t quite grasp what was so fascinating about these Magnifying Glasses, but lately, as she roamed her territory, all the stories she heard were about Magnifying Glasses, naturally arousing her curiosity.

Fortunately, she had a few Magnifying Glasses that she had received from Kim Hyun-woo for testing purposes, so she went down to use them out of pure curiosity.

…That was the problem.

Elena, going down to use a Magnifying Glass for the first time, drew the ‘Sword of Alanka’ from the first one.

In other words, she made a profit of more than 200 times, maybe even 250 times, with just one draw.

Naturally, Elena was very pleased when she realized this.

Of course, who wouldn’t be happy about making money without much effort?

Moreover, the joy she felt was significant because she had lived a life of poverty, being called a failed hero, longer than she had been employed as a hero in the territory.

But even so, that didn’t make Elena obsessed with Magnifying Glasses.

It was rather because of the mercenaries that she became obsessed with them.

It was because of the mercenaries who flocked to her, making a fuss as soon as she drew the Sword of Alanka at once.

They all admired and applauded Elena for drawing the Sword of Alanka in one go, and someone even insisted on doing the next draw at the spot where Elena had drawn, thinking it was a lucky spot.

Thus, merely by using the Magnifying Glass, Elena, who had quickly gained admiration from those around her, went on to use the remaining Magnifying Glasses once more.

And from there, another Sword of Alanka emerged…!!

At the sight of Elena drawing not one but two Swords of Alanka in succession, the mercenaries applauded vigorously with voices full of both jealousy and cheers.

Regrettably, Elena had fallen into the swamp of delusion, thinking it was all due to her own luck.

Perhaps she was caught in the common delusion that she was meant for greatness?

Furthermore, the admiration from the mercenaries, for merely using the Magnifying Glass twice, gradually restored her self-esteem, which had been diminished due to being considered a failed hero.

Of course, her self-esteem had already improved a lot since joining the territory, but she was still being ignored by the mercenaries.

Because of that, Elena began to purchase Magnifying Glasses in earnest. And, of course, it was a disaster.

Just as everyone has the same chance of drawing something good with the Magnifying Glass, it was an unchanging truth for Elena as well.

Thus, Elena gradually became obsessed with the Magnifying Glasses.

Upon hearing about how she had fallen for the Magnifying Glasses, Kim Hyun-woo made a strange expression.

“This is problematic.”

Strictly speaking, it wasn’t that problematic.

After all, as long as she did her job well, Kim Hyun-woo didn’t really have a reason to be concerned about whatever else she did.

However, Elena still needed to spend more time on her growth than on the Magnifying Glasses.

“Can’t be helped.”

Kim Hyun-woo decided to stitch up Elena’s broken head, having no other choice.

Just as numerous users of Arteil had stitched up their broken heads with the help of the government’s ‘Game Probability Disclosure Act’.

“Elena, do you know the probability of getting a good item from the Magnifying Glass?”

“Yes? No… not really.”

“You said you drew the Sword of Alanka, right?”

“Yes.”

“The probability of drawing the Sword of Alanka is 0.00042%.”

“…What?”

Elena looked dazed as if hit on the head with a hammer upon hearing the probability of drawing the Sword of Alanka.

Kim Hyun-woo didn’t stop there and continued speaking.

About how dreadful the probability was for the ‘Lowest Grade Explorer’s Magnifying Glass’.

How difficult it was to hit the jackpot using a Magnifying Glass.

Furthermore,

“For your information, the probability of drawing Yoichi’s Bow is 0.000004%. By simple calculation, you need to draw it a million times to have a 4% chance.”

He mentioned one of the hardest items to get from the Magnifying Glass.

“…In reality, spending money on the Magnifying Glass is…”

“Hard to say, but it’s like pouring water into a bottomless pot.”

“…Hearing the probabilities, it certainly seems so.”

Kim Hyun-woo nodded his head in relief, as anyone could see that the head was neatly stitched up, and said,

“Anyway, it’s best to stop obsessing over the Magnifying Glass. Elena, you don’t really need to do that.”

“It would be best to do as you say, My Lord.”

After hearing the probabilities, seeing Elena’s rapidly improving condition, Kim Hyun-woo thought it was indeed necessary to keep the probability table hidden.

“Then please leave for the fourth tier immediately tomorrow.”

“Understood.”

With those words, he sent Elena away.

“Sigh-”

Kim Hyun-woo, who had prevented a hero from Lartania from falling into gambling, sighed in relief.

‘Ah, I forgot to give that to Elena as well.’

Recalling the item he had not yet given, Kim Hyun-woo shrugged and, after a while, opened Elena’s information window.

It had been quite a while since he last opened Elena’s status window.

And then.

Hero Name: Elena

※The hero feels a very strong trust in you.

“What? It’s almost at a 3-star level?”

Kim Hyunwoo couldn’t help but marvel at Elena’s stats without even realizing it.

This was because Elena, who was definitely a 1-star a few months ago, had now grown to almost a 3-star level.

Kim Hyunwoo was newly amazed at the talent of a hard worker.

“But why does Luck increase with it, really?”

He made a strange expression.

This was because, despite there being no particularly dangerous events for Elena recently, her Luck, which is usually hard to increase beyond 20, had gone up to 30.

Kim Hyunwoo, who was questioning this, soon shrugged and turned off the information window.

…It was complicated whether to like or dislike that Luck was increasing, but in the end, it was a good thing because if Elena became stronger quickly, her Luck would definitely increase.

“Hmm, now that she’s slowly reaching 3 stars, I should come up with a title for her.”

Thus, Kim Hyunwoo began to create a Magnifying Glass again, thinking of a strange name in his mind.

---

The Blacksmith’s Street in the east of Norba Kingdom was so vast that it could be said to have devoured the entire eastern region of the Kingdom, yet no one doubted that the Blacksmith’s Street was that large.

That’s because, from the beginning, the Norba Kingdom itself could grow because of the blacksmiths.

Therefore, the territories affiliated with Norba Kingdom essentially had high-quality blacksmiths, and this tendency was even stronger within the Kingdom, which could be considered their headquarters.

And, the Blacksmith Guild, which could essentially be said to command all such blacksmiths unanimously, actually receives the respect of all blacksmiths.

That’s because the Blacksmith Guild is different from other guilds.

For example, in the case of the Adventurers’ Guild or the Commerce Guild, the position of Guild Master is entrusted to an administrator who can manage the guild the best, although the ability of their specialty is also a factor.

However, like the Mercenary Guild, the Blacksmith Guild focuses on professional skills rather than management and places a blacksmith in the position.

There are several reasons for this, but the biggest reason was the stubbornness of the blacksmiths.

Blacksmiths do not wish for someone with lower skills than themselves to be in a higher position.

But, on the contrary, blacksmiths cleanly acknowledge someone with higher skills than themselves, so the Blacksmith Guild Master, like the Mercenary Guild, was the person with the best skills.

In the center of the eastern street of Norba Kingdom.

A huge three-story building that, at a glance, differed in size from the other blacksmith buildings.

On the third floor of that place, adorned with heavy yet elegantly carved decorations, as if to signify that this building belongs to the Blacksmith Guild.

“So, how is Lartania territory?”

Koman immediately answered the Blacksmith Guild Master’s question, which came while he was turning around and tinkering with something, as if there was no need for a second question.

“It’s a great place. There are quite a lot of people who use the weapons we made.”

Koman answered.

Upon hearing that, the Guild Master turned with a satisfied smile and said,

“Really? Then we can open a branch there?”

“It’s not just that we can, but it seems like we definitely should.”

“Well, of course, we should if it’s like that.”

“Then… may I take charge of the blacksmith branch in Lartania?”

Koman asked rather politely.

However.

“Um, I’m sorry, but that might be a bit difficult.”

“…Perhaps, are you thinking of giving it to someone else?”

“Ah, come on- it wouldn’t be right to push another blacksmith into a place where Koman has been for the branch.”

The Guild Master’s words.

Koman was about to speak with a slightly dissatisfied expression, but-

“But, unfortunately, I’m going this time.”

“…Excuse me?”

As the blacksmith continued, Koman made a bewildered face, and the Guild Master turned completely around.

The first thing visible was fiery red hair that fell to their waist.

Next, red eyes and a playfully smiling mouth were visible.

Lastly, she wasn’t tall, perhaps due to being a dwarf, but still had the cheerful charm of a woman, thanks to her unique proportions.

And then.

“I told you, didn’t I? I’m going.”

The Guild Master- no.

“When a close friend returns, I have to keep my promise.”

The best blacksmith in the Blacksmith Guild – who could create a signature, albeit in a limited fashion – Reneide River, said with a smile.
