nRegardless of the process, Ian cleared the quest and went back to Iriel.
n“Oh! Ian, you came back.”
n“Yes. Just as you asked, I’ve helped Witson.”
nIriel nodded, “Yes. I’ve heard about it from Witson. You have done so much…”
nIan muttered quietly, ‘Yes… I have done so much… I don’t want to do quests like this ever again.’
nThere was no physical labor involved, however, it was full of mental labor.
nWhile Ian silently complained, system messages announced the end of the quest.
nThen, Iriel came near Ian.
n“As I have promised, I will give you part of my power. I hope you will help Griffer to succeed in making
nthe ancient monsters breed…”
nIriel lifted her hand and spread it.
nA white sphere of light appeared in front of her palm and was sucked into Ian.
n‘… I can tell the sex of the monsters?
nThat was a little strange, but soon Ian bought it.
nNow that he thought about it, he had never seen anything about the monsters’ sex in their information
nwindows.
nIan suddenly wondered about the sex of his pets.
n‘Now, I can see it on the information window?’
nIan started to check his pets’ sex starting with Ly.
n‘Yes, it’s right here. Ly is a boy.’
nIan was a little surprised after checking the sex of his pets, ‘What? My pets are all boys?’
nNow that I think about it, none of them were that ‘feminine.’
nIan asked Iriel, “Are there more boy monsters than girl monsters?”
nIriel blinked with her big eyes at the sudden question, “What? No. Except for a few special species, all
nmonster species’ sex ratio is 1:1”
n“…”
nIan felt somewhat uneasy, ‘Well… I guess it’s all a coincidence…’
nAnyway, he had gotten what he came for. It was time to go back to the Magic Tower of Dimensions.
n“Thank you for your help, Iriel.”
n“You’re welcome, Ian. Contact me any time you if need my help.”
nIriel then gave Ian a blue crystal sphere.
nHe had already seen things like that.
n“What… is this?”
nIriel smiled and answered, “You can send me messages with this crystal sphere.”
n“What? Why are you giving this to me?”
n“I cannot tell you now, but I think I will have to ask you a favor soon. May I contact you then?”
nThen, he received a quest window whose content was quite strange but also had familiar parts.
nDing-
nShadow of the Evil Dragon Kalipa (Hidden)
nIriel, caretaker of the Forest of Love and great elf Summoner, has been worried for a long time.
nIf you get more powerful, you will be able to hear about it.
nQuest Difficulty Level: ???
nQuest Limit: Summoner who has the Spirit of a God Dragon.
nQuest Limit: Summoning Master Lv.3
nTime Limit: Doesn’t exist
nReward: ???
nThe quest is automatically refused if you don’t receive the crystal sphere from Iriel.
nIf you refuse the quest, your Friendship with Iriel decreases and you lose 20 Attraction.
n…
nIan spotted ‘Evil Dragon Kalipa’ first, ‘Oh, I’ve heard this name before…’
nSoon he realized that he had heard about Kalipa from Orkley, the legendary Dragon Tamer.
n‘It’s not like hidden quests are frequently given… and it doesn’t have a time limit, so I don’t have any
nreason to refuse it.’
nHe read down and stopped at the quest limit part.
nThe quest was related to the Soul of the God Dragon. In other words, no one could get the quest
nexcept for Ian.
nHe felt good about it.
nAt the same time, he also saw something strange.
nIt was Summoning Master Lv.3.
n‘But what is this? I can raise the class Proficiency even after I become a Master?’
nSummoning was the Proficiency stat that was the basis of all skills’ improvement of the Summoner.
nWarriors and Knights had the Fighting stat, Priests had Faith, Sorcerers had Mana and Archers had
nArchery.
nHowever, no user had raised one’s class Proficiency to Master, so no one knew what would happen
nthen.
n‘I just assumed that the class Proficiency wouldn’t rise once I become a Master…’
nJudging from the Master Lv.3 that was written on the quest window, he could keep raising his
nProficiency even after becoming a Master.
nMaybe there was something else after that.
n‘Hmm… I still have a long way to go. My Summoning is Advanced Lv.2 now… so, I should be about
nLv.150 to become a Master…’
nIan finished thinking and took the crystal sphere from Iriel.
n“Of course. I will gladly help you.”
nIriel smiled brightly, “Thank you, Ian!”
n…
nHe went back to the Magic Tower where Griffer had been waiting for him and greeted him warmly.
n“Oh, Ian. Welcome. Did everything go well?”
nIan nodded, “Yes. I have received the power about making pets breed.”
nGriffer smiled, “Well done. I knew Iriel would like you.”
nNext, Griffer took Ian to a low and large hill behind his Tower.
nThat place had been turned into a farm while Ian was gone. The ancient monsters Ian had been
nrevived there.
n“Huh? Griffer, some monsters are missing!”
nHalican was not there because Ian had gotten it, but a few monsters that had tormented Ian weren’t
nthere.
nGriffer nodded, “This place is for herbivorous monsters only. I’ve put the carnivorous ones in another
nplace.”
n“Oh, I see.”
nThey proceeded with the quest immediately.
nIan checked the sex of the monsters, he then picked a male and a female from a species.
nThen, he registered them as his pets because it was a required step to use the Making Pets Breed
nskill on them.
n‘Umm… should I use the skill now?’
nThe two Clopsys were just staring at each other. Ian gulped hard.
nNext to him, Bukbuk was watching with ‘excitement’.
nBuk-!
n‘Uh, I hope this is not PG rated…’
nIan covered his eyes with his hand and used the skill.
n“Making Pets Breed!”
nHowever, what Ian was thinking didn’t happen.
nA white light flowed out of the two Clopsys’ chest. A while later, a big white egg appeared in front of
nthem.
n“Hu… it turns out I didn’t have to be worried.
nIan had been worrying about having to see something embarrassing. He let out a sigh of relief while
nBukbuk looked kind of disappointed.
nMessages came up.
nIan clenched his fists.
n‘Yes. I can finally do the Hatching Griffin’s Egg quest! And hatch the Egg of the God Dragon…’
nHe took a look at his new title.
nPet Breeder
nRank: Doesn’t exist
nAll effects are applied even when you are not using the title.
n…
nIt was a useful title.
nIt could not help Ian get stronger right away, however, with it, he would be able to get good pets.
nIt didn’t have a rank probably because it didn’t raise battle-related stats.
n‘I don’t need to use it to get its effects. That’s great.’
nIan also used the skill on the other ancient monsters that were in pairs.
nAmong the species, he had managed to revive at least two since some of them were all female or all
nmale. So, in the end, he succeeded in making 5 species reproduce.
n‘Sometimes an egg was made and, other times, baby monsters were born.’
nThe skill’s cooldown time was 30 long minutes, so it took three hours to make all the five species
nbreed.
n…
n“Thank you, everyone. Class dismissed.”
nWith that, the students started to get up.
nJinsung had packed his bag in advance and got up the first.
nNo, he tried to.
n“Jinsung, wait. Why are you in such a hurry?”
nJinsung frowned at seeing Yuhyeon grab his arm.
n“Why am I in such a hurry? Because I have to finish a quest.”
nYuhyeon shook his head, “Oh, what kind of quest are you doing that you are not coming to our base?”
nYuhyeon had stopped Jinsung for no other reason.
nPreparations to upgrade the base was about to end, so he needed to know what Ian, the best
n‘resource’ their guild had, was doing.
nJinsung scratched his head, “I have done so many things and I am now busy picking up the pieces.
nPlease understand.”
n“And you can’t tell me what the quest it is?”
n“No, of course not. I have one quest left and it’s an Empire quest. I don’t know how much time I have
nleft, so I need to do it quickly.”
nIan said that without thinking much and walked out of the classroom, but Yuhyeon was surprised to
nhear about the Empire quest.
nYuhyeon caught up with Jinsung and asked again, “What? An Empire quest? What is your Reputation
nnow?”
n“Oh, it has nothing to do with my Reputation. I got it when I became the first Summoner to reach
nLv.50. At that time, I couldn’t complete it, so I kept it till now.”
nJinsung’s Reputation was already high enough to get the Empire quests, but he didn’t want to bother
nexplaining so he didn’t mention it.
nJinsung was the one surprised now. Therefore, he asked, “Hey, but why are you so surprised to hear
nit’s an Empire quest? Is there anything good about doing an Empire quest except for getting
nReputation? Oh, I’ve heard that one can have NPCs as subjects after getting the noble title.”
nHowever, Yuhyeon was not surprised because of these benefits.
nHe was surprised because he realized that Jinsung was the key to upgrade the base.
n“Dude, do you know that Clovan is working so hard to get the Empire quest?”
n“What? Why?”
n“Because he had the highest Reputation in our guild. Except for special cases like you, 400,000
nReputation is needed to get the Empire quests. You know that, right? Clovan just managed to get
n400,000 Reputation about yesterday.”
nStill, Jinsung didn’t know that a guild member with a noble title was required to upgrade the base, so
nhe still had many questions.
n“But why? He will get 400,000 Reputation eventually if he just gains levels and does quests when
nneeded… I don’t understand. Is the Empire quest so important to him at this point?”
nYuhyeon nodded, “Yes. It’s not important to him, but it’s the most important thing for our guild. One of
nthe conditions required to upgrade our base into a Manor is to have a guild member with a noble title.”
n“Hmm…”
nSilence.
nThen, soon enough, Jinsung understood everything, “So Clovan did all those quests to fulfill that
ncondition?”
n“… yeah.”
nJinsung smiled sourly, ‘I will probably get a blow on my face if I told him my Reputation has gotten
nover 500,000 a long time ago.’
nHe thought he had been playing solo, away from his guild, for too long.
n‘After hatching the Griffin, I need to pay more attention to the guild.’
nHe got another reason to clear the Hatching Griffin’s Egg quest quickly.
n
