The thing Helena took out was a dirt-colored spoon. Kim Sujeong had heard of a dirt spoon but this was the first time she had ever seen one. At first glance, it seemed to be made of real dirt.

“Hoho. I didn’t want to say it because it is embarrassing but there is a dirt spoon below the bronze spoon. It is cutlery that is only given to the poor like the residents of Garbage Village. Of course, there are many people who aren’t from our village who have it.”

Kim Sujeong was embarrassed after seeing Helena talk about it so casually. “I’m sorry, I seem to have asked you the wrong question.”

“No, it’s fine. It is a famous story anyway.”

The two of them laughed and moved together to the west of Metheus. Kim Sujeong had designated this place for the villagers, including Helena. She explained, “This is the place you will stay in the future. Father asked me to give you a place here but I’m not sure you’ll like it.”

“Of course I like it! I really like it. This is too much for us.”

[The firefly star, ‘Camille,’ is nodding at their simplicity.]

Certainly, they seemed simple. Metheus was still completely new compared to Windia. The number of buildings were low and the facilities weren’t very good either. However, this didn’t seem to be the case for those living in Garbage Village. Still, Kim Sujeong was glad to see she liked it. “I’m glad you like it. Ah, right, my place is over there. You should know it? Look at the medical treatment center over there. If you are sick then don’t be pressured about payment and just come. I’ll see you for free.”

“Oh my, for free? Really...?”

“Of course. You are trying to improve the village so I naturally have to do it for free.”

“Oh my, hoho. I\'m really grateful. Isn’t that right, Kis?”

Helena poked his side and Kis’ face was blue.

“Uh, y-yes. I-It’s good.”

Kim Sujeong shook her head. She wondered why he was like this but after thinking about it again, Kis had bad memories there. It was a place where he had been bound for days and tickled. It would be stranger if he liked it.

Helena wondered, “What’s wrong? Your complexion isn’t good. Are you hurt somewhere? Would you like to get medical treatment over there?”

“Ehh? Ah, no. Haha. I just have a bit of a stomach ache. I habitually get an upset stomach.”

“Oh, isn\'t that really bad? Crystal, would you please take a look at Kis?”

Kim Sujeong felt playful and smiled.

“Shall~ I~? Let’s see~”

"Aaaaack!" Kis screamed and ran away.

The two people remaining burst out laughing.

[Title: A review of the village where Dark Wolf is the chief.]

Hello~ A.S.L community friends. This time, I came to the village where Dark Wolf, the savior of Windia, is the village chief. It was smaller than I thought. There are still many empty buildings and I don’t think there is anything to see. The Temple of the Wind is under construction and it feels just like when I first saw Mulan. In any case, a certain female user came and she brought a lot of dirty NPCs. Unfortunately, I didn’t see Dark Wolf. I don’t know what he is doing. As I am writing, the reporters are being kicked out. It is scary and amusing????????.

└ The reporters are having a hard time ?????????

└ Why are they kicked out every day? ????????

└ Oh, I’m curious.I want to go and see it as well.

└ I’m also here now.I can’t see Dark Wolf.Where is he? ?

└ That’s right.I came for a signature but I couldn’t get it.

......

Choi Jeonghyun and his companions headed to Metheus Village. The location was easier to find than he thought because it was a very popular place in the community. This was due to the various reviews and photos coming from reporters and users. The community could be accessed not only in real life but also in the game.

Choi Jeonghyun read the information and felt admiration.

“Ah~ this is the place where Dark Wolf is the chief. It is a great number of comments. I also want to be famous.”

If he became famous, he would receive advertisements and make a lot of money. These days, it was the advertisements of Arkstar rankers that appeared on TV. Rumor had it that the revenue from advertising alone was billions of won. He was envious. Shit.

“By the way, why are the reporters kicked out? Huhu.”

“What are you doing?”

“Ah, Uncle, do you know about the A. S. L Community?”

Park Muyeol had a question mark above his head. “No, I don’t. What is it?”

“It’s a site where you can get information about the game.”

“Site? What’s a site?”

“Ah, that’s right. Uncle, you use a 2G phone. It is the Internet. The Internet.”

“Ah~ Intunet (?). Haha. I don’t know about that.” Park Muyeol was terrible with machines. He was using an old phone instead of the smartphones that people were using these days. Well, Park Muyeol was more comfortable with this. “How do you connect to the Intunet?”

“It is the Internet, Uncle.”

“Tsk. Right, right. Ah, how do I use it?”

“First, go into settings.”

In this way, he wrestled with the Intunet for 30 minutes but he still couldn’t use it. Shit, it was terribly difficult. “Aish, I can’t use it. It is just a bunch of useless things.”

“Haha. I’ll explain it to you later.”

“That’s okay, this guy. I’d rather not do it.”

Park Muyeol felt heartbroken as he sat down in the shade of a nearby tree. It was because the feeling of satiety was suddenly lost. Combat food was good but there was a problem. Satiety fell too easily.

“Let’s take a break to fill satiety.”

At the same time, the group sat down. They rested in a familiar manner and did their own things. Momori and Tarmo deliberately sat in the sun, not the shade. They had been asked for the reason and they replied that they thought the sun would allow them to grow hair like plants. They were funny guys.

Park Muyeol turned his head and saw the Mukjeba Brothers playing rock paper scissors. (Mukjeba is the combination of their names but in Korean, it is also a variant of the rock paper scissors game) It didn’t seem to mean anything but it looked pretty fun. Baroque was flicked on the forehead like he had lost again while the other two looked very happy.

‘It’s so fun.’

His grandson was soaking his feet in the nearby stream. Park Muyeol wondered what he was doing and saw he was cutting the water with a sword.

“Why is Seongchan doing that?” Choi Jeonghyun wondered as he sat next to Park Muyeol and Park Muyeol replied, “It is probably a training exercise. We used to go in like this and catch fish with a wooden sword. It was during the summer holidays.”

“Ah, I see. Uncle, did you teach this to Seongchan?”

“Yes.”

They watched for a while. Suddenly, Choi Jeonghyun stood up. “I\'m bored. I’ll go join Seongchan.”

“Yes, catch some fish with your bare hands. Roast and eat it.”

“Understood~”

Choi Jeonghyun moved away and Park Muyeol became bored. He looked around and saw the flowers blooming in a beautiful manner.

“Hrmm. Let’s see.”

[Slime Licked Grass with Transparent Dewdrops]

[Rating: Normal

Ordinary grass that has been licked by a passing slime. Over time, adhesion has developed. It will stick if you hold it for a long time so be careful. A small amount of the grass can be used as an adhesive.

-If dried for 30 seconds, it can be used as a fairly strong adhesive.

-Be careful not to stick it on your hands (very difficult to remove)]

“Oh, there was something like this?”

He was bored so he wanted to pick some flowers. By the way, his hobby was flower arrangements.

“What flowers are there? Oh, this is the first time I’ve seen it.”

Park Muyeol wandered around and collected various flowers. He often picked flowers while resting like this but this was the first time he was doing it in earnest. How far did he walk?

[The title ‘Man with Flowers’ has been acquired.]

[Damage will increase by 1% when holding a flower.]

[Holding a flower will give a 5% increase in water resistance.]

[The more flowers that are collected, the higher the above number.]

[All plant type monsters won’t attack first.]

[You can get florist as a class and open a flower store.]

[Your goodwill will increase rapidly when meeting elves.]

“Ohu.”

There might be the prerequisite of holding flowers but it was a fairly good item. The most striking thing was that he could become a florist? Once in the past, his dream was to open a flower store. Now he might be able to achieve it.

“Good. Hahaha.” Park Muyeol continued to pick up flowers when he suddenly remembered the grass. “Wait a minute. What happens if I attach a flower to a sword?”

Clearly, the title said that he needed to hold the flowersers. This didn’t mean he shouldn’t hold it with his weapon.

“I’ll give it a try.”

He took out the transparent dewdrop grass he had just acquired. It could be used as an adhesive so he felt it could attach various flowers. As such, he started attaching flowers to the wooden sword one by one using the grass. They were sunflowers, one of his favorites. There was also one gorgeous lily. There was one thorny rose that had to be attached before it withered.

Many flowers were added. After a short time, the ebony wooden sword turned into a bouquet of flowers.

“Where should I grip it?”

[The title ‘Man with Flowers’ has been activated.]

[Your water resistance is temporarily increased by 5%.]

[Your attack power is temporarily increased by 1%.]

[The effect will disappear when all flowers wither.]

“Ahh. it works. Kuhahaha.”

Park Muyeol laughed loudly. Maybe he was a genius for thinking of this. Suddenly, a message popped up.

[A constellation that likes sticks wants you to place the flowers on your head.]

“Um, you...?”

Park Muyeol hadn’t known it was watching. What the hell was it doing? Perhaps he should ask Jeonghyun.

“I won’t do it. That is what women do. Tsk.”

[A constellation who likes sticks wants you to dress as a woman.]

“You are a very persistent person. What are you doing?”

[A constellation who likes sticks says it’ll let you know if you dress up as a woman.]

“Sigh. It’s okay, I won’t do it.”

Park Muyeol sighed.

Thus, time passed. The day turned to night and Park Muyeol’s party sat around a campfire eating fish.

“Grandfather, eat first.” Park Seongchan served the fish and Park Muyeol received it happily.

“Thank you.”

Park Muyeol bit into a fish. It was his first time eating fish here but it was really delicious. The salty ones were roasted very well.

“Delicious. Everybody, please eat.”

The group started to eat the fish and everyone raised a thumb to say it was delicious.

“Uncle, what is that on your wooden sword?”

Choi Jeonghyun questioned and Park Muyeol shrugged.

“This? I was bored so I tried it.”

Park Seongchan mumbled while eating a fish, “My grandfather’s hobby is flower arrangements.”

“Ah~ really?” Choi Jeonghyun’s eyes widened.

The Mukjeba Brothers spoke in turn.

“Aiya, the old man has an unexpected charm.”

“Isn’t it prettier than expected?”

“Baroque... flowers are good. Pretty.”

The baldies looked awkward. Their expressions showed they thought flowers weren’t manly. He would have to teach them that appearances were deceiving later. Just then, the bushes behind him shook.

‘A monster?

Park Muyeol grabbed the bouquet...

No, he picked up his wooden sword.
