[Karzen Kingdom’s Main Scenario Failure. The Seal is Broken.]

[Following the successful Harpe Empire, the Karzen Kingdom has failed.]

[All countries except the Harpe Empire and the Karzen Kingdom are in the middle of their Main Scenarios.]

[The guilds of the Iot Kingdom and Ronda Kingdom are still at war. Who will be the final victor?]

‘Come to think of it, there were six seals.’

About a week has passed since I finished the Main Scenario, and several countries have been diligently digging themselves into a hole, postponing their Main Scenarios for various reasons.

Just how many days will they be at war?

Of course, not all countries are at war.

It’s just that the Iot Kingdom and Ronda Kingdom are at war. Other countries are cooperating with each other to progress through their Main Scenarios.

Though there hasn’t been much progress separately.

‘Anyway, the Karzen Kingdom failed, and the Iot Kingdom and Ronda Kingdom are at war, so……’

In effect, only the Anis Kingdom and the Pronia Kingdom remain.

Well, maybe if the two warring nations turn over a new leaf and join hands to proceed with the scenario, but……

‘But that will never happen.’

Everyone has already suffered significant losses due to the long war.

To recover even a little of that damage, they have no choice but to monopolize the Main Scenario rewards, and now that it’s turned into a battle of pride, it seems they will never back down.

‘That aside, I didn’t know there would be failures.’

The Karzen Kingdom’s failure.

I knew how they failed because I saw it on the broadcast.

Simply put, they were annihilated by the Third Apostle who appeared as a Raid Boss, and due to that annihilation, the vitality and souls of all members seemed to have been absorbed by Beluin, releasing the seal.

Moreover, since the seal was released, the Main Scenario naturally failed.

In the end, the Karzen Kingdom was sadly eliminated from the Main Scenario, gaining nothing.

‘Well, it doesn’t matter to me.’

Honestly, whether other countries succeeded in their Main Scenarios or not wasn’t something I needed to worry about.

However, since there have been only Main Scenario-related posts lately, I briefly thought about it, then shook my head and decided to connect to Twilight.

“First……”

Should I go to the Golden Trading Company?

* * *

The reason for going to the Golden Trading Company was simple.

I had finally collected all five gold coins I had obtained from the weekly Real-Time Auction.

It wasn’t a difficult process, as I had simply enhanced and listed items obtained from the Raid Boss, but it took about a month, so I couldn’t help but feel a little excited.

“Oh! It’s Rudin-nim. What brings you here?”

Anyway, not long after I entered the Golden Trading Company, the branch manager came out and greeted me.

Since I had already placed within the top 5 of the auction item rankings five times in a row, it felt like I was receiving almost VIP treatment here.

“I’ve collected five coins.”

“Ah, it’s already been that long.”

When I showed him the five gold coins from my Item Storage, the branch manager nodded and began to lead me somewhere.

“I understand. Please come this way.”

Following the branch manager who was guiding me, I went down to the basement and saw a heavy iron door that seemed out of place.

Rumble━

The branch manager inserted something into the iron door, and it naturally began to open. When the door was fully open, the branch manager gestured for me to enter first.

Following his lead, I entered the iron door and soon saw dozens of gems placed in display cases scattered around.

‘There are more than I thought.’

Wouldn’t it take all day to check all of these?

“Please feel free to take your time and look around. There’s no time limit.”

The branch manager spoke as if reading my mind.

Since there was no reason for me to refuse, I gave a short reply and began examining the closest gem.

[Summoning Stone of the Guardian Wings] (Special)

Description: A summoning stone that can summon a transparent shield with its own will to protect the user. Since the shield itself is made of a transparent material, it cannot be detected even with stealth detection. It protects the user according to the shield’s durability, and when the durability runs out, the summon is automatically released.

━Can summon Guardian Wings (LV1).

━If broken, cannot be summoned for 120 minutes.

‘Not bad.’

I especially liked the fact that it was a growth type.

If I raise its level to a certain extent, wouldn’t it be able to block most attacks?

However, for me, who can already use the Armor of Protection through the Azure Guardian Set effect, it wasn’t an item I needed to be attached to.

‘I should look around some more.’

After that, I examined each of the displayed summoning stones one by one, but I couldn’t find any that really stood out to me.

Objectively, they were all useful summoning stones.

But since I had to choose only one, I wanted to take the best one possible.

‘Should I just choose the Giant Eagle, a mount-type summoned beast? Or the crossbow that automatically shoots enemies?’

“Can’t you find what you’re looking for?”

Suddenly, the branch manager approached me and spoke, perhaps noticing my troubled expression.

“No, there are so many that it’s hard to choose.”

“I see. If you don’t mind, I’d like to recommend one…… Is that alright?”

“Which one?”

“This one right here.”

The branch manager answered confidently and took out a summoning stone placed in a corner and showed it to me.

Judging by its location, it seemed like a useless summoning stone.

Still, since the branch manager recommended it, I thought it must be a special summoning stone and decided to check it out first.

[Battle Doll Summoning Stone] (Special)

Description: A summoning stone that can summon an artificial life form created for battle. It can equip all equipment without restrictions and has the characteristic of becoming stronger as it experiences combat. It can also learn specific skills through Skillbooks, just like players.

━Can summon Battle Doll (LV1).

━If it dies, cannot be summoned for 120 minutes.

‘Huh? It can equip equipment?’

And it said it could equip all equipment without restrictions.

If this was true, it seemed possible to equip it with the various Unique items I possessed.

‘And if it can even learn skills……’

Wouldn’t it become quite a decent summoned beast?

Although it would require a considerable amount of money and effort to acquire the equipment and Skillbooks, it felt worth it.

“So, what do you think? While the Battle Doll’s stats are lower compared to other summoned beasts, it has the advantage of being able to equip gear. It will be helpful even if you equip it with just decent equipment.”

“Ah, are its stats lower than existing summoned beasts?”

“There can’t be only advantages.”

The branch manager answered quite honestly.

However, there was something the branch manager didn’t know, and that was the number of Unique items I had.

Recalling those Unique items, I said,

“I’ll take this one.”

* * *

[Name: Battle Doll]

[Level: 1]

[Health: 1000/1000]

[Magic Power: 1000/1000]

[Attack Power: 10] [Magic Attack Power: 10]

[Defense: 10] [Magic Defense: 10]

[Stats]

Strength: 10 Intelligence: 10 Agility: 10

Fighting Spirit: 10 Toughness: 10

[Acquired Skills: 0/5]

‘Are these the Battle Doll’s base stats?’

After choosing the summoning stone and leaving the Golden Trading Company, I first summoned the Battle Doll and checked its stats.

Aside from that, I was surprised to see an expressionless woman appear.

Anyway, realizing that the expressionless woman was the Battle Doll, I pretended to be nonchalant and checked its stats. Soon, I realized that it had superior stats compared to players.

The problem was……

‘Why can it only learn five skills?’

Did that branch manager deceive me?

But recalling what he said, he hadn’t lied.

No, forget lying, he didn’t say a single word about skills.

It seemed like he deliberately avoided mentioning it.

‘Tsk, well, five is better than none.’

Besides, since its base stats were better than a player’s, I was looking forward to its future growth.

Anyway, satisfied for now, I first took out the Ring of Immortality from the bank and equipped it on the Battle Doll.

The Unique ring, Ring of Immortality.

Unfortunately, I couldn’t equip it due to my low Intelligence, but the Battle Doll equipped it without any problems.

‘But how are the stats displayed?’

If a player didn’t have Health or Magic Power stats, equipping an item that increased those stats had no effect.

Thinking that the Battle Doll might be the same, I checked its stats again and soon realized that I was worried for nothing.

[Name: Battle Doll]

[Level: 1]

[Health: 1400/1400]

[Magic Power: 2000/2000]

[Attack Power: 10] [Magic Attack Power: 90]

[Defense: 10] [Magic Defense: 10]

[Stats]

Strength: 10 Intelligence: 90 Agility: 10

Health: 40 Magic Power: 100 Summoning: 50

Fighting Spirit: 10 Toughness: 10

[Acquired Skills: 0/5]

“Aha.”

So the stats are automatically generated and applied.

‘This is actually better.’

I almost went around looking for Skillbooks to increase Health and Magic Power.

However, if the stats are automatically generated based on the items, I wouldn’t have to worry and could just acquire and learn Skillbooks that fit the Battle Doll’s combat style.

‘The problem is which skills to teach it.’

Should I teach it S-rank skills?

It would have been impossible in the past, but not now.

I could just learn an S-rank skill myself and then put it into a Skill Sealing Book.

After that, I could just have the Battle Doll learn the S-rank skill from the book.

‘Well, there’s no rush.’

Even if I obtained an S-rank skill, the chances of it being the skill I wanted were slim, so I gave up without regret and thought about the equipment I would equip on the Battle Doll.

‘Since I have a few Unique items, it might be worth it to enhance and equip them.’

For now, there were four Unique equipment pieces to equip.

Magic Bullet Bomber, Ring of Immortality, 100 Pockets, and Unstoppable Sprint.

Excluding the Magic Bullet Bomber, which was already enhanced to +15, if I enhanced the remaining items to +10, it would definitely be much stronger than existing players.

Additionally, since the Magic Bullet Bomber had fixed damage, it wouldn’t be a problem of dealing no damage.

“Summon Release.”

[The Battle Doll’s summon has been released.]

“Huu, why are there so many things to do?”

Besides enhancing Unique items, there were other things to do.

The main one was enhancing the Infinity Sword obtained from defeating the First Apostle. Honestly, I believed this enhancement would be very easy.

After all, I had an S-rank Crafting skill.

To level up my Crafting skill, I had put all the weapons I crafted into the Infinity Sword, but its growth was minimal.

[Infinity Sword] (Magic)

Description: A sword that has grown ever so slightly. It has become better compared to weapons of the same rank.

Attack Power: 124  Magic Attack Power: 0

Durability: ∞

*Health increased by 870.

*Can grow by absorbing weapons.

*Cannot be enhanced.

This sword is the one that devoured 1-2 thousand Soul-Infused Longswords made with Intuition.

The cost-effectiveness was truly the worst.

Frankly, even the Soul-Infused Longswords I crafted now had better performance than this weapon.

‘Should I continue raising this?’

The quality of the crafting swords I made wasn’t bad either.

My S-rank Crafting skill even came with an enhancement effect of +1~+3.

The only thing left was the rank.

Perhaps the growth was minimal because it only absorbed Magic-grade weapons, but I couldn’t just feed it Rare-grade weapons.

Rare-grade weapons were expensive.

In addition, the Crafting skill didn’t level up easily from level 20 onwards.

The level I painstakingly raised in a week was 23.

Considering that all of it was from Great Success items made with Intuition, it was no different than making it difficult to level up on purpose.

‘Come to think of it, Aizen said his Swordsmanship was level 26?’

How did he even level it up?

Moreover, Swordsmanship was a Passive skill, and Passive skills were harder to level up than Active skills.

‘Well, let’s enhance first and see.’

Since I had obtained the Battle Doll after all this time, I decided to invest today in it and started walking.
