Taming Master

* * *

The demons are strong, but they collapse quickly.

As Ian had planned, the battle was over before the darkness began.

Exactly 10 minutes left.

In that time, Ian was able to defeat the remaining three demons.

Catching Lateros, the strongest single attacker, has the same effect as releasing the shackle that was tied to Ian's foot.

Anyway, after the battle, the darkness that Kaká had laid out became brighter everywhere.

And in front of Ian, there appeared the missing Shota.

Shouta was very pleased.

Ian turns his gaze toward Shouta, and Shouta's words resound throughout the sinuses.

[Good job, Ian. That was a hell of a fight.]

Ian smiled and replied.

“Thank you, Mr. Shouta. ”

[Thank you so much for showing me the good stuff.]

“A compliment.”

After a brief warm conversation, Ian reaches out.

Then the golden glow began to shimmer in Shoota's hands.

“Hmm...? ”

Ian was staring at the radiance for a moment, and the golden radiance soon turned into a beautiful golden necklace.

Here, take it. You have passed through the gates of our Mauria.]

A necklace slowly moving away from Shoota's hand toward Ian.

As Ian embraces it, Shoota's mouth reopens.

[It is a sign that it passed the gateway to this test. You should now be proud to be one of the finest warriors in the Mauria Empire.]

Along with him, a system message begins to appear in Ian's eyes.

Tyring -

[You have successfully passed the ‘Gateway to the Trial’ of the Mauria Empire.]

[You earned 150,000 Reputation.]

[Obtain 3 Gold Ingots from the Mauria Empire.]

[You obtained the item ‘Necklace of Mauria Greater Warrior’.]

:

:

Ian first identified an item called the Golden Ingot of the Mauria Empire.

And I had to curl my eyes.

"Three million gold exchanges per person on the battlefield of the Mauria Empire?" ’

Of course, 3 million gold was not that much money for Ian, but he was surprised that it was much more expensive than he thought.

Next, Ian looked up at the golden necklace that was decorated in such a glamorous manner and muttered to himself.

"Is this Mauria Senior Warrior's Necklace? Shall we check it out? ’

Ian fluffed his expectations and checked the item information on the necklace.

However, unlike his expectations, the necklace was a general goods item, not accessories that could be worn.

[‘Mauria Senior Warrior's Necklace’/Grade - Legend/Archetype - General Goods]

Although the explanations were written together, Ian was disappointed and put into his inventory without checking.

It was because it was only important that the token was the token to meet the Wheel King.

‘Hey, it's time to change your necklace, I'll give you something good. ’

At that time, Shouta, who was still looking at Ian, smiled and said to Ian,

[Hehe, you must be disappointed in the Warrior's Necklace.]

According to Shouta, Ian was furious and expressive.

It was because the quest completion message had not yet appeared, but it should not have been against his will.

“Oh, no. I don't think so. I just had a lot of misunderstanding. ”

Then Shoota laughed.

[Haha, you don't have to look at me, Ian. Of course I paid for going through such a difficult gateway.But I have great expectations.]

Ian looked a little embarrassed.

‘What is it? Then give me something good. ’

But I couldn't say what was inside.

“No, I am thankful that this is a sign of an outstanding increase. ”

Seeing Ian pouring liquor on his tongue like oil, Chutha smiled lovingly.

[Hehe, you have the makings of a hero. It's not my eyes that are wrong.]

“Haha, haha. I'm flattered."

And Shoota's words were not finished.

[The Mauria Warrior's Necklace, which I gave you, is actually a very powerful object. It's just a simple necklace with no abilities right now.If you become stronger someday... you'll understand this now.]

Ian's expression slightly changed.

"Well, if the seal is later broken, will the general goods necklace turn into legendary grade equipment?" ’

Anyway, it was nothing bad, so Ian felt better.

“Thank you for your concern, Mr. Schotta. ”

[You're welcome.]

After a few more words, Shouta takes Ian somewhere.

And there, there was a huge movement magic group.

[If you enter here, you will be transported to the garden in the palace of Mauria.]

Ian's face lit up.

The distance to the castle of the Mauritian Empire was well established, so this magic group would save a lot of time.

“Thank you, Mr. Shouta. ”

Shouta's words continue.

[Perhaps there is a dead lion waiting for you in front of the Uranus' enchantment.] It must be the messenger sent by the Holy King.You can follow him.]

Ian nods forcefully.

“I understand.”

And at that moment, I remembered the quest completion message I had been waiting for.

Tyring -

[The 'Gateway to the Exam’ quest has been successfully completed.]

[Gain 150,000 Reputation.]

Then an additional line of messages came to mind.

[You can go to the Castle of the Mauria Empire.] Would you like to go now? (Y/N)]

“Son of a bitch, you guys. What, you're confident? ”

LB's underground testing room.

It was originally a place for QA employees to play games before creating new content.

Balancing at the same time as testing play, checking for bugs or errors, is what originally happens in this room.

But today, for a slightly different reason, the testing room was rowdy.

“I'm sorry, sir. I have no regrets.”

“Oh my…. Hey, you guys did better than that, even if AI did. How can five 300s lose to 215? Huh?”

At the words of the man on the road, the five employees who were standing in front looked down.

And around it, other people were sad to see the five employees get upset.

“Phew, I got caught by the Chief... ”

“I know. It's best to avoid the Chief's involvement. ”

“Well, actually, those five are the best in the testing team. You wouldn't expect five to 350-level demons to never catch a single one of them. ”

“Well... that, too. I've heard rumors that Han Dae-ri is really good at controlling people... ”

“Yes. In fact, 'he’ is too much of a monster. It's not that our team wasn't good enough. In fact, it's attached to the tens of millions of Kailan players on the Korean server who are supposed to be the most talented users, the top gamers, and the amateurs, right? ”

“Yes. I don't think you ever do, but... ”

Like the staff said, the commander went upstairs with a loud rumble.

As he climbed up, the man on the far left of the five members who had been ravishing opened his mouth.

“Oh Seung Chul. ”

“Yes, Deputy Han. ”

“Sir, why are you so angry? ”

“That's... The deputies made a bet... ”

In the words of the man called Oh Seung Chul, a surrogate landed on his forehead.

“Oh my... I didn't want you to think that... ”

“Phew, what should I do? In fact, you didn't think any of us would lose. I only thought about catching him and getting a year's bonus... ”

“That's right…. ”

These five identities are the five demons that Ian met at the entrance to the test (?).

Surprisingly, the five demons Ian encountered at the entrance to the test were those who controlled it.

And, of course, the five demons were originally monsters driven by AI.

But Ian's quest clearing speed was too fast, so the planning team asked the testing team to do it.

By connecting the top monsters to the Gateway, I asked them to stop Ian.

But the outcome was unfortunate (?), and I had to frustrate the staff again.

“Phew, I thought I'd won by the middle... ”

“Daryl, let's get up there and get to work… It's not that we couldn't do it, it's that monster. ”

“Yes... ”

And so, Ian became increasingly a public figure of LB employees without his knowledge.

Weeing -

Taj Mahal Palace is an ancient Indian landmark.

Taj Mahal was famous for being beautiful and majestic in the world.

And this place where Ian arrived, the palace of the Mauritian Empire, was as if it reminded him of Taj Mahal.

“Wow…. ”

Ian, who entered the resistance of the Mauria Imperial Palace through the Movement Wizard, had no choice but to look around and admire.

Ian didn't even know what Taj Mahal was, but he could see how beautiful the palace in front of him was.

While Ian was watching the palace, someone approached him and spoke to him.

“Are you Ian? ”

Ian nodded and replied.

“Is that so?”

“I am Machamut, the patron saint sent by the Holy Father. ”

“Nice to meet you.”

In Ian's polite reply, a man called Machamut smiled and began to guide Ian.

“Follow me, the Holy Father awaits. ”

“Well, I beg of you. ”

As soon as the man heard Ian's answer, he started walking on a fast walk, and Ian immediately followed him.

The palace of the Mauritian Empire was enormous, and Ian was blinded by the maze because it was like a maze.

‘Oh, what a mess. ’

Did he walk for like five minutes?

The magician who was guiding Ian stopped at a huge and colorful door that he had never seen before.

He smiled politely and said to Ian,

“The Holy Father is inside. Go inside.”

Ian looks down slightly and replies.

“Thank you. I'll go in, then. ”

Ian pushed the door without hesitation, and the huge door, which became more than three times the height of Ian, opened very gently.

And at that moment, Ian could feel that he had lost control of his character.

‘Looks like the quest is about to begin. ’

Ian relaxed and looked at the man sitting in the middle of the room.

Along with him, Ian could find an old man with gray hair on his throne.

The old man had two eyes full of dizziness, and the pressure felt there was nothing like the overwhelming overwhelming overwhelming overwhelming sensation of Shouta at the gate of the trial.

‘He’ said to Ian.

“Welcome, Ian. I've already heard about you from Eriel. ”
