“What is that item? It looks special.”

Jessica turned her head to Dohyun’s question.

“Ah yes. I have only collected swords here, so it should stand out.”

“Isn’t that supposed to be a sword?”

Jessica put a small smile on her lips.

The ‘item with a moderately unique history’ seemed to recognize its owner.

Who would have known that it would come right into Dohyun’s eyes?

“Of course not black. However, it is an item with an interesting story, so I am putting it here.”

“An interesting story?”

“Yes, you may have heard of it. It is an item left by the monarch of a legion, which is quite famous in Korea, before his death. It looks like an ordinary paper, but it is said to have a hidden secret.”

Jessica’s smile grew darker.

She didn’t even put much effort into herself.

Dohyun himself was only interested in that item.

Jessica has seen the same case as Dohyun countless times.

Bachelors who flaunt their bragging rights with their parents on their backs.

Rather than trying to get something, they tend to choose the easy way.

Focusing on the outer shell that looks plausible.

That’s why I put that item at the New York headquarters of the flea market.

Because New York is full of such rich masters.

And, in Jessica’s view, Dohyun was no different from the masters.

“Before the monarch died, he left those items to his children and the Legion. And the one who unlocks the secret… … .”

“You will get a special reward.”

Dohyun intercepted Jessica’s words.

Like an immature master who found an interesting toy.

Dohyun was immersed in the story of his item and pretended to be excited.

“Yes, that’s right. That’s why that paper, which looks like nothing, is here.”

“… … .”

“Are you interested? I will come closer and explain.”

Jessica looked at Dohyun.

He said that you could become the owner of the item, leaving room for secretly.

“But what about that man?”

Dohyun turned around.

Jessica answered, trying to hide her regretful expression.

“sorry. Because our flea market pays a lot of attention to protecting customers’ personal information… … .”

“You care about privacy? Did you leave me alone in the elevator earlier?”

Dohyeon cut off Jessica’s words and gave a sharp sting.

It was as if his fist had flew from the square.

Jessica looked at Dohyun once, as if in surprise.

“Sometimes there are exceptions. That person has a deep connection with that item.”

At that, Dohyun smiled.

The man’s identity was exactly what Dohyun had expected.

‘I finally found it.’

Seon Woo-hyuk.

He was the son of Taesu Seon, the lord of the Frostbale Corps.

He was an agile machine and a reputable player.

However, he was also an unfortunate figure who could not spread his wings because he was caught by the ruined corps.

He didn’t get on well in the press, and he couldn’t be recognized because he didn’t even circulate the usual photos on the internet.

‘He must be obsessed with the legacy his father left behind.’

As the original author, Dohyun knew Seon Woo-hyuk well.

After his father’s death, Seon Woo-hyuk was unable to protect the corps.

The Frostbald Corps, which lost the great mountain named Seon Tae-soo, was scattered.

With everything torn to pieces, he had to make a cruel choice.

Even if he sold his father’s inheritance, he had to protect the rest.

Thanks to that determination, the Frostfoot Legion was able to protect at least the remaining pillars.

Although the Legion had lost its former prestige.

Seon Woo-hyuk blamed himself for this and stopped his activities as a player.

After that, he could not let go of his lust and visited this place every time.

If he uncovers the secrets of his own father’s legacy, he might be able to rebuild the Frostweed Legion.

with such hopes.

Every time he came to the flea market, he was trying to find out the secret, even from afar.

He seemed to think that Do-hyun was conscious of his competitor when he looked at Seon-woo-hyuk.

Jessica hurriedly opened her mouth.

“The item does not have an owner yet. It is a price that is not too much of a burden if you have your own resources. would you buyhuh?”

Her smile was very alluring.

If they were men who like to brag, they would have nodded their heads right away.

To win her favor and show off her wealth.

But Dohyun was different.

It was not that he had the same mental power as a high priest.

He just had no money.

Remaining purchase history was also a problem, but that was the fundamental problem.

Of course, as a member of Sega, he was receiving money and valuables to maintain his dignity.

However, Lee Do-hyeon’s position in Sega was too narrow because he had accidents all over the place.

Compared to the children of other legions and Sega, he could not fully utilize the wealth of his family.

Dohyun folded his arms, pretending to be indifferent.

He said, “I can wield a black sword. Ask me to buy that piece of paper that won’t be worthwhile if I don’t find out the secret?”

“Can you make it worthwhile?”

“Then I will become a hogu who only does good things for others.”

“Please. Even in the blank wall, you broke the quest with a thought that no one else had. There’s no way you can’t do this either.”

Dohyeon snorted and took a step forward.

“I’m going to do it now.”

Dohyun muttered quietly in Korean.

Jessica asked back to herself.

“yes?”

But Dohyun had already moved away from her.

“Sun Woo-hyuk.”

Do-hyeon called for Seon Woo-hyuk, who was staring intently at the legacy left by his father.

He seemed surprised when his name was called in an unexpected place, in an unfamiliar foreign country.

Seon Woo-hyuk turned his head with a puzzled face.

“… … ?”

He didn’t open his mouth, but he seemed to ask why he called.

However, this was not the right place to have a conversation.

Do-hyeon brushed her aside and muttered low in Korean.

“We have eyes to see here, so we’ll meet and talk later.”

“What are you doing now… … .”

“Do you want to know the secret of the mural?”

Seon Woo-hyuk’s eyes widened.

Like how do you know that.

*

Do-hyeon, who turned away from Seon Woo-hyuk, asked Jessica, who was standing far away.

“Did I say you don’t mind touching it?”

“Yes, it is.”

You keep messing around with this and that, now what are you doing?

I thought so to myself, but Jessica answered right away.

Hearing her confirmation, Dohyeon took out the paper stored in the cabinet.

“Come on, wait! What are you doing now?!”

Surprised, Seon Woo-hyuk quickly approached Do-hyun.

However, Do-hyeon ignored such complaints and looked at the paper.

Class: Rare

-Items crafted by the Lord of the Frostfoot Legion.

-If you solve the secret hidden in the paper, you can access the secret related to the mural of the Frostfoot Legion.

The paper, which was smaller than Dohyeon’s palm, had a unique shape.

Thin black lines were drawn irregularly here and there.

It looked like it was drawn randomly with a ruler.

But there was another way to find out the secret of this strange paper.

It is to use the observation series skill.

There may be some differences depending on the characteristics, but if you only use the skill of the observation series, it doesn’t matter if you don’t use this skill.

In the case of the skill ‘Original literacy’, there was an effect of increasing observation ability.

It wasn’t just about dexterity skills.

Of course, not knowing how to use the observation skill did not prevent other players from uncovering the secrets of this paper until now.\nEven if you peeked at a secret, you just couldn’t figure out how to uncover it.

But Dohyun knew the way.

Seon Tae-soo had a strange setting among the characters.

He was a little different from the lords of other legions.

He was not a power-oriented personality, he was a person with his own unique philosophy.

He reflected that inclination, leaving even his own legacy unique.

He took advantage of his hobbies, calligraphy and painting.

‘Isn’t it enough to just fold the folds in order according to the chaotic lines?’

Dohyun remembers the time when this setting was made.remembered

The reason other players couldn’t uncover the secrets of the paper was simple.

It was because I didn’t even dare to fold the paper.

It was the only clue related to the monarch’s legacy.

If he had damaged it, he would have lost his whereabouts forever.

So, I was in a situation where I put it in a decorative cabinet and looked only at the outside.

And with the dissolution of the Frostfoot Legion, it was sold and flowed to this foreign country.

However, Dohyun was the one who set up this item.

So, even though he was skeptical, his hands were already working on origami.

‘Well, you’ve made it this far.’

Dohyun sighed in admiration.

He was surprised that the setting he had made with only a few assortments turned out to be a vivid reality.

Paper was both a blueprint and a drawing.

Therefore, even if he realized that paper is a blueprint, he could not grasp the hidden truth if he had no knowledge of painting.

That was the moment.

Pot!

It was the moment when Dohyeon had finished all the origami.

The folded paper took some form.

It was a beautiful ice crystal.

‘… Glyph of the Frostfoot Legion!’

Tiling!\nDohyun’s eyes widened.

In fact, the paper itself was not important.

The quest that can be obtained from the paper is important.

The purpose of coming to the flea market in the first place was to obtain this quest.

The goal seemed to have been achieved.

An item named ‘Sharp Snow Crystal’ appeared in your inventory.

The paper in Do-hyeon’s hand returned to its original form as if it had completed its purpose.

It wasn’t wrinkled or torn.

I felt the intention of Taesoo Seon, who wanted to secretly pass on the legacy.

Dohyeon put the paper inside the decoration box.

“Is it okay because I put it back as it is?”

Dohyeon smiled softly as she opened her empty hands.

As if making fun of two people who were startled and stunned.
