Return of the Sword God-Rank Civil Servant novel Chapter 188

The Next Day.

Time passed as usual, and the world remained divided into two factions.

On one side, there were punishments for criminals, filled with screams and wails.

On the other side, there were daily routines starting with a hearty hangover cure after a boisterous celebration the previous night.

As Su-ho had instructed, the Banshees focused on leveling up to meet the average level requirements.

Jeong Cheol-min did the same.

Su-ho handed Jeong Cheol-min over to Seo Gi-won and finally began his personal activities.

The first of these was a meeting with Martin Park.

“Is this enough?”

“Yes, it’s enough.”

During the days Su-ho had been away, Martin Park had faithfully completed the lunar drawings as promised.

Thanks to his help, Su-ho was able to continue challenging the Seogo Guard.

[ The Guardian of the Seogo Guard acknowledges his defeat. ]

[ Gate has been cleared. ]

[ The MVP of the gate clearance is 'An Su-ho.' ]

[ Additional experience points awarded for MVP selection. ]

[ Bonus stat awarded for MVP selection. ]

[ Level increased. ]

[ All stats increased by 1. ]

[ 1 bonus stat acquired. ]

Su-ho leveled up by 8 levels.

[ 'Wall Tiger Technique (B)' mastered. ]

Su-ho was able to acquire 8 new grapples.

“Hmm.”

Su-ho scratched his chin as he checked the new information on Wall Tiger Technique.

‘Wall Tiger Technique... It’s a useful movement skill that lets me stick to walls like Spider-Man, but...’

What Su-ho truly wanted had not yet appeared.

Su-ho quickly checked his status window.

“Check status window.”

[ An Su-ho ]

– Level: 134

– Class: Crusader

– Traits: ＜New Blood＞＜Hercules Candidate＞

– Physical Power (O): 84

– Magic Power (O): 51

– Sensory Power (O): 51

– Bonus Stat: 2

Level 134.

He had leveled up by 8 levels in no time.

This is why Seogo Guard is great.

Every time he cleared Seogo Guard, his level increased by one.

Su-ho invested his bonus stats into Magic Power and Sensory Power.

While Physical Power «N.o.v.e.l.i.g.h.t» was efficient, Su-ho thought it was time to balance things out.

‘After all, when I use the talent of atonement, the stats get consumed.’

Su-ho checked the number of remaining Lunar drawings.

‘Only 2 left.’

He had asked Martin Park for 10 drawings, using 8 of them so far, and had mastered 11 grapples.

Still, the final ultimate skill he wanted had not appeared.

‘Do I have to master them all?’

What Su-ho desired was something that the previous Martial King, Gu Taek-soo, had acquired, but Gu Taek-soo never disclosed how many times it took to obtain it.

In fact, he said he didn’t remember exactly.

He just said that he had been going in and out of Seogo Guard whenever he had a chance, and over time, he naturally mastered it.

When Su-ho stepped out of Seogo Guard, Martin Park was sitting on the sofa.

“Are you going back in?”

“Can I ask you for something?”

“No. I’m starting to get tired of this.”

Then, he got up and said.

This translation is the intellectual property of Novelight.

“Drawing pictures, letting me in, don’t you think you’re making me work more than what I paid for?”

“Well, don’t you think it’s all good if it works out?”

“Good for you, my foot... So, do you need more drawings?”

“Looking at the flow, it seems I’ll need a bit more.”

“Well then, you’ll have to pay extra.”

“Huh?”

“What do you mean ‘huh’? I’m getting bored. No matter how much I’m using it for good purposes, I’m just not into that stuff. So, if you want more, you’ll have to pay extra for something I’m interested in.”

“Alright. Then will the paint ingredients be fine?”

“Do you have anything else stocked up?”

“No.”

“So, what kind of ingredient?”

“If you tell me the color you want, I’ll prepare it.”

It was annoying, but there was no choice.

If it weren’t for Martin Park, Su-ho would have had to wait every time the full moon rose or search for gates related to it.

Martin Park chuckled at Su-ho’s words.

“Then wait for a bit.”
