Chapter 141: Distortion (4)
“Hmm.”
Yeongwoo looked around nervously for some reason.
Although North Korean residents had not yet appeared nearby, this act was undoubtedly an invasion.
Moreover, it was only now occurring to him.
;My name and face are engraved on commemorative coins, and it’s even money... Isn’t this a direct provocation? It’s an outright leaflet for North Korea.’
Golden coins from South Korea falling throughout Geumcheon County.
How would the North Korean Strongest Swords and residents perceive this?
‘Well, the die has already been cast.’
Yeongwoo decided not to think too deeply about it anymore.
Blame.
Upon receiving the golden sphere from the goblin, he felt the peculiar object floating thinly.
Tingling...!
So Yeongwoo placed the sphere on the ground as it continued to float on its own into the air, initiating its rotation.
It was already activated.
Shi-ah-aat!
“......”
As Yeongwoo gazed at the sphere, shortly thereafter, just like in the ruins, a quantum-choice quest appeared.
Grabbed!
≪Confirmed Reward≫

【Projectile damage reduced by 15%.】
【–Empty slot–】
≪Choice Reward≫
[3 million karma]
or
[Grant 30,000 karma to all residents in the area]
‘It doesn’t really make a difference being in a foreign land.’
Although there was a slight sense of relief, it wasn’t as if there were any significant changes occurring.
Anyway, couldn’t significant achievements be accomplished just by raining gold here?
“Grant 30,000 karma to all residents in the area.”
[Grant 30,000 karma to all residents in the area]
When Yeongwoo decided to supply karma to the local residents, the golden sphere rotated even faster than usual before soaring into the sky above Geumcheon County.
‘It’s amazing no matter how many times I see it.’
Yeongwoo’s gaze followed the golden sphere ascending into the sky.
The spherical object, drawing a very long golden arc in the sky, caused a spectacular explosion moments later, coloring the sky with gold.
Then.
Suaaaaa...!Finnd new chapters at novelhall.com
Gradually, it showered gold over the entire Geumcheon County as if it were rain.
“......”
Yeongwoo, watching the golden rain pass by his palm without any enemies present, was momentarily lost in admiration.
It was a tremendous privilege to come all the way to North Korea and enjoy such romance.
But only for a moment.
Soon after, the message about karma distribution seized Yeongwoo’s attention forcefully.
《Joseon’s Strongest Sword, ‘Jung Yeongwoo 07,’ affiliated with the Republic of Korea, has forsaken the exclusive possession of 3 million karma and gifted 30,000 karma to all residents of Geumcheon..》
“Huh...?”
He checked again, thinking he might have seen it wrong, but the message remained unchanged.
It clearly stated ‘affiliated with the Republic of Korea.’
‘They’re intentionally revealing that I’m an outsider.’
Then the system announced the creation of commemorative coins.
《30,000 karma will soon be provided in the form of commemorative coins. Prepare yourselves.》
Soon, all residents of Geumcheon County would recognize the face of Joseon’s Strongest Sword, who came from South Korea.
Snap!
The characteristic sound of coin creation soon followed.
Next, with a clink, three golden coins engraved with Yeongwoo’s name and face appeared in the air.
‘Oh my goodness.’
Snatch, snatch!
Yeongwoo hurriedly grabbed the coins and glanced around nervously.
Of course, nobody would object to distributing money, but he couldn’t help but feel anxious for no reason.
‘Let’s... Let’s move for now.’
Yeongwoo decided to climb back onto Negwig to avoid any potential pursuit from North Korean Strongest Swords.
Ta-at!
Ultimately, when the Tosan Strongest Sword mustered the courage to protest, Yeongwoo reluctantly took out commemorative coins from his pocket to show him.
“I’ve already told you three times, but I’m not here to fight. I’ll distribute 30,000 karma to the residents of Tosan, so please guide me quickly. If I have to say the same thing four times, then I might actually cause harm.”
“......!”
* * *
Tosan Strongest Sword, Hwang Pyeongsu03.
Yeongwoo learned the name of this man thanks to the local status.
Click, click.
After walking straight east for a while, the area status, which had been set as Geumcheon County, finally changed to Tosan.
| The current area is ‘Tosan.’
| The Strongest Sword of this area is ‘Hwang Pyeongsu03′. Rank 1st, defenses 62.
“Mr. Pyeongsu, nice to meet you.”
As Yeongwoo recited the name of the opponent written in the status, Hwang Pyeongsu awkwardly smiled and tilted his head downwards.
“Y-Yes... I am Hwang Pyeongsu. P-Please come to Tosan.”
The number of defenses for Hwang Pyeongsu was 62 times.
This was a remarkably low number for North Korea, which had become a brutal lawless land right after the reset.
Of course, the population of Tosan County wasn’t that large, but even before that, Hwang Pyeongsu’s temperament itself wasn’t ferocious.
While other Strongest Swords massacred to show off their strength, Hwang Pyeongsu only drew his sword in self-defense situations.
“Uh... If we go further in, we’ll encounter the residents.”
Hwang Pyeongsu of Tosan looked at Yeongwoo with an unexpectedly pitiful expression.
Seeing this, Yeongwoo quickly glanced around for pursuers and even checked the Epic Compass ‘Fearful Cat’ once.
Then.
“Yes, sounds good. Shall we do it here then?”
As Yeongwoo said this, reaching out towards the golden goblin, it opened a pocket of spatial void.
“Wha-What was that just now...?”
It was because he briefly glimpsed the infinite space inside the small pouch carried by the little goblin.
But before he could finish speaking, the goblin pulled out the golden sphere.
“Gasp.”
Just as Yeongwoo had once remarked, Hwang Pyeongsu was also greatly shocked by the fact that the sphere could move like an object and stepped back.
Swoosh.
“Isn’t it fascinating? I’m still not used to it either.”
Saying this, Yeongwoo handed the golden sphere received from the goblin to the ground.
Thunk.
“W-What... What are you trying to do?”
Since the sphere was already spinning rapidly, Hwang Pyeongsu, with eyes full of fear, alternated between Yeongwoo and the golden sphere.
“Well... I’m going to spread the same golden rain you saw here in Tosan too.”
“S-So what exactly is this ‘golden rain’?”
While Hwang Pyeongsu was asking, the heavily fluctuating golden sphere suddenly shot up into the sky.
Whoosh!
“Huh?”
And Yeongwoo took advantage of the moment when Hwang Pyeongsu’s pupils were tinged with gold to check the mutation equipment.
≪Confirmed Reward≫
「Avenger」 – Mutant Shield
【After defense, the power of the next attack increases by 15%.】
‘It’s amazing. Even if you put that in the catalogue, it seems like it would work even if it’s not a shield defense.’
But for now, it was just a dream.
Having too many pieces of equipment, he couldn’t use all of them, be it bows, spears, swords, or shields.
Click!
While Yeongwoo was handing over the shield “Avenger” to the goblin, commemorative coins were created in the air at the right moment.
Shrrrr!
Yeongwoo quickly grabbed the coins, just like before, and hurriedly climbed onto the Negwig.
There was nothing strange about the fact that enemies could be rushing from Pyongyang or anywhere else by now.
“You mentioned earlier that you have a family, right? I hope it wasn’t a lie. The coins were probably delivered to your family members too. Please use them wisely.”
As Yeongwoo finished speaking, he was about to leave, and Hwang Pyeongsu, who had been absent-minded for a moment, unconsciously grabbed the knee of the North Korean monster.
Tap!
“T-There!”
“......?”
“I don’t know why you’re doing this, but thank you anyway.”
“...Ah.”
Yeongwoo was not accustomed to receiving gratitude from others.
He glanced vaguely at the North Korean Strongest Sword who was close to his age, then turned his head southward, shifting his gaze to the flashing notification messages in front of him.
「There are unclaimed achievement rewards.」
「The recommended achievement list has been updated.」
