Chapter 3 – The Butterfly Effect (1)
“But skill stones for string materials are expensive… The price is…”
In the world of Last Legacy, there is no such thing as a skill stone.
It is a real product for players only.
And in the first place, the creator of this game (though it doesn’t seem to be a game now) set a very expensive price, perhaps because he didn’t want to use skill stones.
-6,000,000p
‘This crazy…’
Shaking…
‘It was 600,000 won at the current price? Isn’t that crazy No matter how much I hope you don’t do it, there was such an expensive skill? On an unfinished subject?’
I was dumbfounded and checked the price of the skill I bought with tears in the past for my main character.
[Thousands of Death (天殺地滅) (Only for those cursed by the seven stars), (Simbeop)]
.
.
.
-10,000,000p
“Haha… These crazy guys are selling skill stones a hundredfold…”
In the past, the skill that was necessary for the growth of the main character, so she paid 100,000 won with tears, returned at a price of 100 times.
Perhaps the other skill stones have also been subjected to this or that insane price increase.
‘…I’m pissed off, but I can’t help it… I need that skill to enter the city’
Shaking…
It’s miserable, but I can’t help it. I have to get into the city quickly, so I can’t help it… I can’t help it…

“…”
Fuck…
I closed my eyes, unable to hold back the sorrow I felt for having used up nearly half of my mileage points.
“…Just try being useless”
Well, there’s nothing I can do about it… But…
Yuchun put aside his heartache and obtained information about her skills through accident acceleration.
30 minutes later
‘It’s fortunate. It’s the skill I expected’
In a nutshell, the five elements skill is a kind of mental method for strengthening the body that accelerates, interlocks, and unites the five magical organs, forcibly links the huge and accelerated magical power to the body, and then strengthens the body abnormally.
However, it is an explosive and dangerous mental method as the range of amplification is different from general body strengthening.
What would happen if a paper airplane broke through Mach? It will be torn to pieces.
‘The guy who made this is pretty crazy. If you look at the fact that he used the same eating method to kill his opponent before he died, to strengthen his body’
It was also a part where you could see how angry you were with your own weak body.
The reason why Yuchun bought this crazy skill was because he needed a debuff, a debuff to be applied to himself rather than to someone else.
Yuchun thought that if he could strengthen his body with magical powers, he might be able to suppress his body by turning that direction, and thought it was possible. And if that’s possible.
‘If I rotate the magic organ with one stone and forcibly link it to my body to restrain my body, and at the same time bear the burden, the debuff will be doubled, but it will work to some extent.’
In fact, I don’t think that the unfinished mind law can suppress the body of Yuchun who has transcended the 3rd. But it’s better to have it than not have it.
Yuchun sat down on the spot, closed his eyes, and tried to feel the magical energy in his body.
‘Will it work?’
Can a person who used to walk or run fly right away just because he has wings?
Of course, it is impossible for Yuchun, who has accepted the knowledge of the simbeop but has never felt mana, to use mana at once…
.
.
.
Uh… Uh…
“Is it okay?”
Yoochun felt as if blood vessels had been created that had never existed before.
Something that has substance and does not exist at the same time enters the body from the outside, divides into five branches and is absorbed, then comes out again and wanders around the body. Perhaps this is magic power.
Even considering her talent, Yoochun’s thought that it would take at least a day or two to perceive and accept mana was overshadowed, and it became possible to accept mana and operate it according to the mind law within 10 minutes after closing his eyes.
Either this bodily talent is beyond what Yuchun imagined, or
‘Maybe because the performance is so good’
It’s probably more likely the latter than the former.
‘I thought I would see this level of talent once or twice’
There are dozens of characters that have been raised after running endless cycles to find certain talents.
It’s sad that the only one alive among them is the main character… Anyway, the prediction from the experience of raising it like that was a day or two, but 10 minutes is inevitable, and there are other variables, and that’s only physical stats.
Soothing the startled feeling she felt at the moment, Yuchun focused on the magic flowing through her body and found the location of the other magic organs except for the dantian and heart.
‘In the middle of the heart and danjeon, and the flanks on both sides’
Yuchun’s Five Ring Stars were located in the form of a cross, right, left, right, up and down, centered on the magic organ located between the heart and the dantian.
‘Rotate’
According to the operation method of the five elemental organs, the five magical power organs were rotated.
‘Faster’
Uh-uh-
However, I can’t control my body no matter what I do with only F-skills and unfinished mental methods.
‘Faster’
Yes-! Yes-!
That’s why Yoochun chose. In this endless downhill section of magic circulation, Awakeners who have learned simbeop or magic dare to give up what they consider most important.
‘Faster!’
Woo-woo-!!
Yoochun boldly removed the brake. It was a crazy choice that would have exploded as a bio-magic bomb in response to the body’s load growing like a snowball.
In addition, the mental method called the Five Elements Organs accelerates and interlocks the five magical organs, and five times, even dozens of times more, will be applied to the body.
But Yoochun didn’t worry.
‘It’s okay’
When it comes to the load on the body caused by the runaway magical circulation, what Yuchun felt was like a stream of water from a shower.
It would be okay to release a dam over this body, but it was absurdly insufficient.
‘Let go’
Yuchun, who felt inadequate, let go of control over the flow of magical power that flowed according to the mental law.
Woo woo woo woo-!!
The faster the circulation speed, Yuchun, who had been an ordinary person until recently, was unconsciously controlling the speed of the magic flow. The magic power increased and increased to an incomparable level until now.
Falling into a trance, Yuchun sinks into himself, forgets the time, and begins to contemplate his magical powers.
However, at that time, the result of endlessly accelerating the magic engine brought an unexpected result to him.

-The top floor of the Seoul Mana Observation Center-
“Is this real?”
“Yes, chief.”
“Do you think this makes sense?”
A middle-aged man with gray pomade hair tossed his papers on the desk and glared at his elegant-looking secretary and team leader’s daughter, who handed them over.
The man sitting at the desk with the plaque reading “Seoul Mana Observation Agency Management Director Lee Do-kyung” Stopped staring at his daughter and took out a cigarette with a sigh.
Do-gyeong Lee, who was lost in thought while exhaling smoke for a minute, asked his daughter Ji-yeon Lee, his secretary and team leader of the 3rd team, once again.
“Team 3, how many MDS exactly?”
“Exactly 1,243,543 MDS”
Ha…
“Do you know what that means?”
“I know.”
‘Even so, you are still emotionless.’
Since that incident 10 years ago, whenever Lee Do-gyeong looked at her daughter’s eyes, as if she were looking at a doll, without showing any emotion, it felt like her heart would be torn apart.
‘If only I had been afraid…’
If so, I hope you haven’t closed all your hearts yet…
Lee Do-gyeong let her sigh through the smoke of her cigarette, and raised her eyes to look at her.
“Then explain what it means.”
“…There are a total of 34 levels of rating system for extradimensional monsters called outers, from F to SS+.”
“And”
“The detailed classification is not important right now, so I will just tell you the gist. The MDS of SS+, which is the highest level in the current classification system, is regulated from 870,000 to 1,160,000. That means…”
“In other words?”
“The monster that is showing signs of appearing now seems to be one of the monsters that are outside the taxonomy and are called named.”
“Yeah… That’s right”
‘You learned well’
She doesn’t show it on the outside, but she is proud of being the eldest daughter and at the same time feels sorry for not being able to take care of her properly.
However, Lee Do-gyeong still thought that it was a deception to show such feelings to her daughter, who must still be resentful of her because of the nightmare of that time.
‘The most I could do was give him the position of secretary and have him around so I can keep it, that was all.’
‘The problem is that my surroundings are not safe anymore…’
‘You have to protect Jiyeon. To do so…’
After fiddling with her belongings in the inside pocket of her suit, Lee Do-gyeong, determined, told her.
“Team 3 Leader”
“Yes”
“I will give you an important mission.”
“Yes Chief”
“From this moment on, you are not Team 3 Leader.”
“Chief?”
She said solemnly, holding back the almost pointless laugh at the sight of her daughter tilting her head, wondering what she was talking about.
“You go to the central world right now and go to Libreth. And find a professor named Toldret on the faculty council there and hand it to him.”
Lee Do-kyung put her fountain pen from the inside pocket of her suit into her daughter’s hand.
“He has a debt to me in the past. If you show me this, he will surely do the favor. A professor from Libreth’s faculty council will be able to gather troops to kill the named monster.”
“…”
“The central world is a dangerous world. Do not get involved in anything or any favors, and go straight to Libreath. Ah! For a moment…”
Lee Do-gyeong remembered his best colleague and friend, his older brother and his granddaughter.
‘It would be nice if I could take that child too…’
She tried to spend it with her daughter Ji-yeon, but when she thought about it, Lee Do-gyeong, who remembered that the child was not in a situation where she could go, smiled bitterly and put down the smartphone in her hand.
“…It is nothing”
“…”
“This is a confidential mission and must not be disclosed to anyone. Got it?”
“…All right”
Her daughter, who looked like she was contemplating something for a moment with her head down, replied with a still expressionless face.
I was saddened by the sight.
‘But what can I do? I have to be patient. Where am I entitled to say something?’
“Now go. It’s an emergency, so I don’t think I can see you off.”
Looking at the face of her daughter who was about to leave, it seemed like she would shed tears, so Lee Do-gyeong turned the chair around and sat down.
“Yes…Then I’ll complete my mission and return.”
“Okay… Go ahead”
Knock-knock-knock-!
Tears flowed at the thought that those words might be the last thing he heard of his daughter’s voice, but at the same time, the feeling that even her daughter could be saved made him laugh.
Survive… Jiyeon
