Possessing Nothing

“Sorry I'm late. ”

I didn't have to say that. Neville's reappearance was less than five minutes after he disappeared. He bowed his head to Lee Sung-min, as he always did.

“Our contact with the blacksmith is over. I need to talk to you, but are you free right now? ”

“It doesn't matter.”

“I understand.”

In Seongmin's answer, Nevel raises his hand. I slit my long extended finger into the air and the landscape snapped and split.

“I'll stay out of your way. ”

After saying that, Nevel vanishes into the shadow of Lee Sung-min. He didn't understand what was happening, and stared at the gaps.

“You're young.”

You hear a voice. A dark elf with dull blonde hair rises from beyond the cracks in the room. At first, he didn't notice that she was a Dark Elf. It was the first time I had seen the Dark Elves.

“Surprise.”

Seeing Lee Sung-min's surprised face, Dark Elves sigh and smile. She rubs her hands on the frizzy head and says,

“Selgerus. I don't know how many more times we'll see each other, but we still need to know each other's names. Isn't that right?”

“Uh... I'm Lee Sung-min. ”

Lee Seong-min stammered and said his name. Elves and Dark Elves are called Demihumans. A being other than man with intelligence. Orcs that communicate broadly can be considered Demihumans, but most people treat Orcs as monsters, not Demihumans. In the beginning, the name Demihuman was created by man.

“What do you use weapons for? ”

Selgerus asks. She's wearing a big apron with a puffy work suit. However, the body flexion was still visible on top of the work clothes, whether it was because of the good development.

Write "Window… ”

I told you I'd connect you with the Blacksmith, but the blacksmith is a Dark Elf. Because he didn't think it was a woman either, Lee Sung-min had to be somewhat embarrassed. In Lee's head, the image of the blacksmith was a man with muscles falling down, and a dwarf who was a petty dwarf. Of course, Lee Seong-min had never actually seen a Dwarf. It is because it is hard for Ain to see as few as it is.

“Spear. Spear... What's your particular preference? ”

“… I wish it would look like this. ”

Lee took out the spear from the subspace pocket. Selgerus nodded his head looking at the spear Lee Sung-min pulled out.

“It's a medium-sized meal. You must be Muslim. ”

“I'm not from Murim...”

“Can you show me what kind of chandelier you use? ”

Selgerus asked. He had to hesitate for a moment. Demonstrating shamanism was like a taboo for Muslims.

“Why? No? ”

“… Is that necessary? ”

“I do.”

Selgerus answered without a worry.

“Don't you have to know what it is to make a spear out of it? ”

“Are you telling me that you can match my work without employment? ”

“You're mistaken. ”

Selgerus smiles low. It was like laughing at Lee Sung-min's ignorance.

“I'm not a Muslim. I'm a blacksmith. It's my job to understand who you are, not who you are. How you swing a window, how you hold a window, how you use a window. You see it and you match it to it. It doesn't matter if you don't want to show it. I can make a spear out of the money I got. ”

Only after hearing that did Lee Sung-min understand what Nebbel said. I told you to keep your eyes down or your pride down. Says the artisans are all stubborn. Lee Sung-min sighed and replied.

“I understand.”

“Surprisingly convincing. I thought you were stubborn. You don't doubt me? ”

“I don't know you. But Erebrisa, who connected you, believes a little bit. ”

I still haven't tried Erebria properly, so I couldn't believe it. However, Erebrissa is also using the Mesh, the god of suffering and hardship. I didn't know for sure, but Erebrisa would be worth it.

“I'm 400 years old. ”

The great Selgerus said, 400 years old. At that unrealistic age, Lee Sung-min's eyes trembled. But I was not surprised. Lee Sung-min also knew that Elves and Dark Elves lived long.

“I like hammering, so I started hammering. That's about 350 years. Of course, my life as a blacksmith has been real for 350 years... although the starting line is different from that of a born Dwarf. Do you know why I'm saying this? ”

“I don't know.”

“I'm not the one you should trust, I'm the one you should trust. ”

Selgerus smiles bitterly.

“Well, I know it's ridiculous to say this to someone you've never met before and ask them to believe you. ”

In Selgerus' words, Lee Sung-min silenced her lips. It was not Selgerus who asked me to believe that I moved Lee Sung-min's mind. It said that the starting line was different.

The Dwarves are born blacksmiths. Everything they make with their hands is luxury. The Dwarf alone receives the beauty of the god of fire and passion, Ader, the god of the earth and Gayen, the god of creation. Products created by young Dwarves are superior to decades of human craftsmanship.

Compared to such Dwarves, the 350 years of Dark Elves' Selgerus hammering may not be worth much. But the 350 years that Selgerus has sold out are real. The starting line is different. The talents are different. How many times has Lee Sung-min felt self-esteem?

“I'll believe you.”

Lee Sung-min raised his head. I was a little surprised when Lee Sung-min started practicing his spear. Up until now, she has met a variety of clients through Erebri, but not many Muslims have actually shown them the art of shamanism when asked to show them.

For a Muslim, being a shaman is a skill to kill an enemy, and you're yourself? A skill used to protect. It is not easy to demonstrate it to others on the ground. Selgerus also asked for a show of shamanism, but he did not expect it to really show shamanism.

First of all, Lee Sung-min started with Ranachal. From the careful unfolding of Ranachal, the original Gucheon Muchang began. Lee Sung-min did not only spread the Gucheon Mudiachang. A blend of immortal souls. When in practice, the Spear method is used as a hybrid. This is because the opposing Pokémon cannot stand idly by.

Selgerus was silent and looked at Lee's open window. It was only a long time before Lee Sung-min's creation ended. Selgerus' lips opened as he looked at him without blinking an eye.

“Do you trust me? ”

“Yes.”

“Why? Because I asked you to? ”

“The 350 years you've worked for are real. ”

In Seong-min's answer, Selgerus smiled.

“Aren't your ears too thin? ”

“That's the first I've heard of it. I've heard that there are a lot of useless doubts. ”

“You can't betray someone you trust. ”

Selgerus chuckles and pulls out the hand he was putting in his apron.

“2.7 million Er. I like to make sure the calculations are clear, but I'm in a good mood, so I'll make you something more. It's going to take a while. ”

“It doesn't matter.”

“I think you'll be a good regular. ”

Selgerus shrugs.

“Unless you die. ”

The gap in the room is closed. Shortly after, Nevel appeared in the shadow of Lee Sung-min. He leaned his head to Lee Sung-min and asked.

“Did you like the blacksmith I brokered for you? ”

“I think I'll be a good regular. ”

Lee Sung-min's expression suggests that Nevel is strange. Nebbel opens his mouth, looking at Lee Sung-min for a moment.

“There's a first impression. Or images. In fact, Selgerus is not a preferred style of blacksmith. ”

“As a Dark Elf?”

“Yes, as I said, we at Erebria only offer the best of what our members want. Almost all of you think of Dwarves as the best blacksmiths… Dark Elves, I don't even care about the female Dark Elves. ”

Nevel smiles bitterly, saying so.

“That's actually why I hooked you up with Selgerus. Because he is not preferred, Selgerus is underrated by his skills. Thanks to this, the commission is also a bit cheaper compared to other blacksmiths of similar skill. ”

“I don't care if your skills are real. ”

In Lee Sung-min's grumpy reply, Nevel chuckles.

“Didn't I tell you? I always offer the best. Selgerus' skills are real. She is the only blacksmith who has earned the title of Myster as a Dark Elf. Selgerus doesn't really like our clients... but if Selgerus says he's going to be a regular, I'm sure he'll make the best weapons for you. Oh, of course. 2.7 million Er lines everywhere. ”

“You mean you won't do anything more? ”

“It depends on how you feel. because all we do is play an intermediary role. ”

In Nevel's reply, Lee Sung-min nods. After a brief silence, Lee Sung-min asked another question.

“I have a question about a quest you can receive as a mercenary. Erebri said he will take a 5% brokerage fee. What will the Mercenary Guild's commission be if he receives a request through Erebri? ”

“Exempt.”

Nebbel immediately replies.

“Erebri's fee includes the Mercenary Guild commission. Quests are also received through us, not through the guild. ”

“What's your track record? ”

“It will automatically renew in the Mercenary Guild. Do you want to confirm the quest?”

“No, not yet. No rank cards have been released yet. ”

“It'll probably come out soon. I'll organize a decent Class S quest for you. ”

“Is this a service?”

“Since you are my dedicated member, I can do this for you. And…”

Nebbel glances at Lee Sung-min's face for a moment.

“Strangely, the more I treat her, the more I feel like I... want to help her. It's just a feeling... but it's so weird. ”

“That's the first time I've heard that. ”

“It's just a feeling. Likes, don't they? Suddenly, for no reason. You don't have to have a reason to feel like it. ”

Nevel says that and laughs in relief.

“See you next time, then. ”

Nevel is gone. Lee Sung-min feels strange about what he left behind. Likeability. I didn't even think Neville had a navy taste, but I had to feel weird hearing it for the first time.

Then we'll see.

I've been strangely fortunate so far. Starting with Jack or Hans, Wijiho-yeon, Saxogo, etc. Those who were closely related to Lee Sung-min all showed kindness to him.

There are no accidents.

The Mesh told me not to forget, and I wandered over Lee Sung-min's head.
