Return of the Sword God-Rank Civil Servant
Chapter 69
It was a transparent liquid inside a glass bottle, and Suho checked its information.
[ Hammer 2 ]
Grade: CDescription: A drug neutralizer created by ‘Nam Hae-won.’Effect: Strong neutralizing effect against a drug called ‘Fantasy.’
Huh?
Is this for real?
Suho asked with a surprised look on his face.
“How did you make this?”
“This is an improved version of the neutralizer I used last. That''s why I named it Hammer 2. Since it''s an improved version, I was able to make it easily. Still, I can guarantee its effectiveness. Hammer 1 was a D-grade, you know.”
“Wait, what? But why name it ‘Hammer’?”
“The drug is called Fantasy. I named it ‘Hammer’ because it crushes all the effects of Fantasy.”
Ah.
Now that he said that, Suho remembered.
Nam Hae-won had later mentioned in an interview that what saved him was the A-grade Hammer 4.
‘Even if there was a prototype, to already have the second version ready...’@@@@
Suho was truly astonished.
Of course, he would be.
There was no clearer proof of quality than the upgrade of an item’s grade.
‘Items created by players are usually vaguely labeled for their effects...’
Thus, the most undeniable proof of value is the grade marked on the item.
Suho sincerely expressed his admiration.
“That''s really impressive.”
“Haha, no, it''s all thanks to you, Hunter. I was planning to create Hammer 2 soon, and I was saving up for the materials. But you supported me with the workshop and materials, so I just did the synthesis grind.
Actually, with enough time and money, I can make these easily. Since my synthesis trait is unique to me, there''s no recipe in the world, and it’s purely a numbers game. Well, this time, I just got lucky and managed to make it quickly.”
Nam Hae-won said, almost shyly.
He was being humble, but Suho didn’t think so at all.
On the contrary, he felt excited.
‘If he’s showing this much ability now, what would happen if he reached level 100 and his trait evolved further?’
He would probably experience an insanely rapid growth, far beyond what he was capable of now.
Suho smiled and said.
“This is a great outcome. Should we mass-produce Hammer 2 and distribute it right away? I didn’t expect a neutralizer to come out so quickly.”
“I''ve figured out the formula, so as long as you provide the materials, we can make it anytime.”
“Perfect, I’ll prepare it right away. But, Hae-won, what’s your current level? I saw you were level 50 on the document.”
“I’m level 51 now. I didn’t know, but when you succeed in synthesis, you get a bit of experience.”
“Oh, really?”
Suho hadn’t known that.
He learned a new piece of information and decided to level up Nam Hae-won with his synthesis trait for now.
He could always go to the Digitation dungeon to save the victims later.
Just as Jo Jin-hwi had predicted.
Where is the justice in Yeongdeungpo? Part 1. Views: 512
The article, titled "Yeongdeungpo Series," had been posted as a special feature.
It had been a day since the article was posted, but the views hadn’t even surpassed a thousand.
This wasn’t surprising.
After all, there were many areas in society that had become slums.
Hey, Junior. How are you doing?I’m always fine. By the way, I was thinking of holding a thank-you ceremony tomorrow. How about it?Good, then wear something neat and come to the association around noon. I’ll be there waiting after setting everything up. I’ve called in a lot of journalists, so make sure to put on a face mask before you sleep tonight.See you tomorrow, then.Ah, of course, I should attend. I’m sure PBS has contacted you, so I’ll go in your place.The world doesn’t care if the view count is low. It’s fine.Haha, it looks like your special recruitment is right around the corner. There hasn’t been anyone who joined Daehyeonhyup as quickly and as high up as you. Really, congratulations.I’ve been timing it. I’ll upload Part 2 today and the thank-you article tomorrow... But, by the way, this is a personal question, but do you not use SNS?Yeah, if you had stayed with Nexus, they would have asked you to create an official SNS account. Why haven’t you done that?I’m just curious. Someone of your caliber could have an SNS account with significant influence. It would be a waste not to use it, you know? There’s even some disappointment in your fan cafe about it.Didn’t you know?It’s called ‘Anshinjeon.’
But now, the name was completely different.
‘As expected, the history is changing.’
And the scale of the fan cafe had already surpassed 30,000 members.
Suho was astounded by the scale.
“That''s impressive.”
Yes, we’ve already gathered 30,000 domestic fans, and the post generation speed is fast. The activity is vibrant. So, since you can’t engage in entertainment activities after joining Daehyeonhyup, how about creating an SNS account? Fans would love it.
“Hmm...”
In other words, Suho was being asked to engage in fan service.
However, Suho had never used SNS in his past life either.
He considered it a waste of time and a source of mistakes.
Of course, he was aware of the positive aspects of SNS.
Since he was a returnee this time, he thought he might give it a different approach.
‘I roughly know the parts I should avoid and the incidents I should stay away from.’
With the Library of Memories, the likelihood of making unexpected mistakes was almost nonexistent.
At that moment, as Suho was scrolling through the fan cafe, he noticed something suspicious.
It was the fan cafe president’s name.
‘Golden Horse?’
Suho had a fleeting thought, and then he asked.
“Journalist.”
Yes?
“Just in case, is the fan cafe president named Golden Horse, by any chance you?”
......
“...No?”
Hmm, how did you know?
“Your nickname is Golden...”
Hmm, yes, that’s right. You really are sharp, Mr. Ahn. But the fan cafe name and the fandom name were chosen by vote. I didn’t come up with it myself.
“Ah... I see.”
Yes, it was all strategically done for you. The guild didn’t make the fan cafe, so I, as the designated journalist, had to run it. That way, no controversies will arise, and the cafe will be easier to manage. Plus, if needed, I can stir up public opinion...
That wasn’t an inaccurate statement.
Jo Jin-hwi was a trusted person whom Suho had selected himself, and he wasn’t someone who’d run a fan cafe for his own selfish reasons.
Suho nodded.
“That makes sense... If it’s you, I understand.”
Thank you for understanding. So, what do you think about SNS? If you’d like, I can manage it for you.
“Do you know how to do that?”
I used to be into it. I also run a blog, after all. Managing your account would just be about posting big updates like on an official account. It’s not hard.
“Hmm.”
Suho had to admit, that made sense.
As a public servant, he needed to be more cautious about his words and actions.
“I’ll make an account. But I’ll handle the management. Just send me the photos and the posts, and I’ll copy-paste them.”
Oh, that’s more than enough. And for the fans, maybe occasional photoshoots or selfies...
“That’s a bit difficult since I’ve never done that before.”
Haha, it’s hard at first, but after that, it gets easier. Of course, I won’t pressure you. If you ever feel like it, I can help.
Alright, then, I’ll create the SNS account, and when it’s ready, I’ll send you the ID. You can spread the word in the fan cafe, and after Part 2 of the article goes up, the aggro will definitely get pulled in. After the award ceremony tomorrow, you’ll gain followers easily.
Once Suho gave his approval, Jo Jin-hwi immediately began outlining the plan. It was almost a little scary how ready he was.
Suho awkwardly chuckled and responded.
“Alright, I’ll do it. Is there anything else?”
No, not for now. By the way, I just wanted to say, an SNS account on Bestagram should be enough. It’s the biggest and trendiest one.
“Got it.”
After the call ended, Suho immediately installed Bestagram and signed up.
He then sent Jo Jin-hwi the account details.
A while later.
