“Recruiting Snow Drake attack members?”
Galaxy Guild Headquarters near the Raven Royal Capital.
A guild member sitting in the meeting room asked as if puzzled.
“Yeah. A post came up on Astra so I’m thinking of applying.”
A human with a good-natured impression conveying his decision looking at everyone.
He was Advance Party member Odin.
“Could it be that attack squad floating around in RPG? The one you playfully said Luna is gathering?”
A woman who was listening to the story together, Advance Party member Freesia, asked.
It’s because she is not a player belonging to Astra so she hadn’t heard the contents.
“I can’t say the details. It was written hoping the detailed conditions wouldn’t be disclosed.”
“Even if you can’t say it’s already spread everywhere. I heard there’s a condition that major rewards are entirely handed over to Black Dragon? Then the raid leader will also be Black Dragon, and the reward distribution will also be done directly right?”
“Entirely… the rewards?”
“Does that make sense?”
The guild members who didn’t know the contents opened their eyes wide in surprise.
That man in front of them is Advance Party member Odin.
A player possessing talent counted on fingers throughout all of RP.
Just imagining such a person clearing a boss under Black Dragon was ridiculous.
“Think about your position a bit. At least negotiate with Black… no, Luna.”
“My position is just a player. Creating the Galaxy Guild was ultimately just to gather people to enjoy RP together. I have no intention of giving an authoritative value here.”
Odin firmly shook his head.
Freesia, who expected that reaction, let out a sigh and spoke.
“Hah. That your words are entirely sincere makes my head hurt so much.”
The pure man in front of her has been together with her since starting this game.
Normally they say the seat makes the person, but Odin bowed his head more the more his name became known.
Does that mean he shows a dispirited appearance lacking confidence?
That was also not it.
Because Odin is a person who enjoys himself getting stronger, and holds pride in that effort and result.
A man perfectly suited as the master of the guild.
“How did Odin end up volunteering?”
“We obtain the opportunity to initialize the Ifrit episode right? Even if it’s not that, since we cleared the private area with Black Dragon-nim’s information, adding strength is right.”
“…You must be right.”
Freesia who resigned shook her head.
Because overturning Odin’s decision is impossible anyway.
“I am opposed, Hyung-nim.”
At that time, a big man who was quietly listening to the story rang out a low voice.
“It makes no sense for the head of Galaxy to receive such treatment. The formation of that attack squad itself will probably be impossible in the first place. There’s no way an Advance Party member with strong pride would enter under a mere player right?”
“Helbert, don’t say such things carelessly. Nobody has the qualification to disparage others.”
Odin uncharacteristically pointed out the guild member’s fault with a firm voice.
The man receiving that gaze quickly showed courtesy and spoke.
“I am sorry. It was a slip of the tongue.”
“Thank you for understanding. And the attack squad will definitely be formed completely. Because I’m not the only one wanting to participate in that place.”
“Yes? Do you know the Advance Party members who applied? If they are people joined in Astra, there’s a high possibility they are mid-tier or higher…….”
The surprised man opened his eyes wide and asked.
However Odin stood up from his seat forming a smirk.
“You will know when you see it later.”
***
“Odin applied to the Vanguard too.”
A short meeting proceeding with the broadcast sound turned off.
Luna, who was continuously picking out applicants, suddenly brought out words.
Unlike Haemu’s time, it was a calm reaction.
“Odin?”
“You saw the private area interview right? He’s exactly the personality shown there. Wouldn’t it be a feeling of paying back for his grace to Black Dragon-ssi?”
“…Ah.”
The good-natured atmosphere felt from the contents of the interview.
Since he said he even applied to the attack squad, his heart felt like he wanted to practically share a conversation.
“This degree should be enough. Normally a field boss attack squad is based on 30 people, so I selected 22 people first. Since Rafina seemed to be looking into it too.”
Luna, surveying for a few more minutes, finished the rough raid composition.
A total of twenty-five including Han-bit, Luna, and Rafina.
It seemed she even picked reserve personnel for changes.
For reference, Avant-garde persistently refused to participate in the attack squad saying he wouldn’t be helpful with his strength.
Since he also has things to do separately, he said he would join when the Snow Drake subjugation ends.
“Thank you. I was a little at a loss, but I comfortably gathered the attack squad thanks to Luna-ssi.”
“It wasn’t much. Still, it’s a relief that a lot of normal people applied.”
She who moved the list sent a message to Han-bit.
Most were names he saw when rummaging through information.
‘Mars?’
An Advance Party member holding a shield met at the Snow Drake’s citadel.
A person who fell for Han-bit’s plan, but he didn’t seem like a character who would particularly do harm.
‘Blood is… not here.’
Advance Party member Blood who acted together with Mars.
Charging at Han-bit filled with anger was her last appearance.
Did she not apply to this attack squad.
Maybe she was filtered out because of her personality.
“But will Haemu really be okay?”
Luna expressed her worry once again.
He seems to be a person considerably hard to catch the bounds of, but management isn’t a problem.
As long as he participates in the attack squad, that is.
“Even if the Snow Drake comes out in a weakened state, uniquely strong Advance Party members are absolutely necessary. Like I said before, I will be able to cope with things that happen during the subjugation.”
“That would be fun in its own way but……. He’ll be twice as weird as you expect so keep it in mind. Anyway it’s about time right?”
Luna surveying her watch organized her words.
It was the moment it exactly hit 30 minutes since entrusting the sword.
“Please wait here. I will come out quickly.”
Han-bit entered the building and headed to workspace 15.
Inside, Kim Jae-ha who finished organizing was waiting holding a sword.
“You did it quickly.”
“Since I only melted the Spirit Stone. But the abilities overall went up a bit. It seems to have mineral-like properties too.”
“Is that so?”
At the unexpected news, Han-bit examined the handed-over sword.
[Excellent Sword – Soul of Fluger Imbued with Chill]

Description: An incomplete sword into which blacksmith Fluger poured everything.
…….
The solid Spirit Stone containing the power of Earth enhances the sword’s performance, and greatly increases affinity towards spirits.
– Options ㄱㅇㄷ
– Gnome gave something good.
– Earth Spirit… must contract right?
– Just how do you do that;
– While at it Spirit Affinity went up 70. Lolll
– When are you going to turn on the sound…….
– Endure.
The Spirit Stone received from Gnome was a good material in many ways.
The spirit’s nature was too thick for Kim Jae-ha to somehow write more strength into it.
However, just properly melting this into a sword was different from an ordinary blacksmith.
“Thank you, Hyung. I will use it well.”
“Thank what. Quickly get good materials and give them to me. I will try making it better.”
One goal Kim Jae-ha had decided on after obtaining Dwarf’s Metallurgy.
That was to make Black Dragon’s sword the best sword in RP.
He currently showed an appearance lacking confidence due to his low rank and insufficient experience, but that resolution at least was clear.
“A fun material will come in before long. I will request you again then.”
“I will be waiting. First I’m going to sleep a little, so call me if something happens.”
“You’ve suffered. Quickly go rest.”
Kim Jae-ha’s character disappeared with that conversation as an end.
Opening the mailbox, Han-bit attached 5,000,000 gold and sent it to him.
It was also together with the contents to purchase equipment and materials to use for metallurgy training.
Han-bit, who exited the workspace, came back outside the building.
Luna was still examining the list leaning her back against the wall.
“I plan to finish preparing for the subjugation, what are you going to do Luna-ssi?”
“I’ll help too. My Ifrit progression is blocked so I have time left.”
“Is it okay? The time of an Advance Party member seemed to be extremely valuable.”
“Ah, that?”
As he asked recalling the conversation in Vestige, Luna also noticed the intention.
She shrugged her shoulders and answered.
“The expected value is high, but it depends on how it’s used. In the first place I’m basically an unaffiliated Advance Party member.”
“…Aren’t you in Yeonhwa Gaming? I heard your older sister is the representative.”
“We’re just roughly tied by blood relations. I told you before too, but if that representative contacts you ignore her.”
Luna advising showing a playful smile.
Since Han-bit closed messages again, the situation was that all contacts go to Yeon-woo.
He would probably inform him if there’s something to hear.
“Then could I hear a little about the people picked as attack squad members?”
“Of course. I will tell you one by one.”
“Thank you. Since there are many eyes, let’s move locations.”
Han-bit spoke looking at the players snooping around.
They, who were standing far away, had now come close enough that sound started to be heard.
“Shall we just talk over a call?”
“A call?”
“Because there are many rats with bright ears too. I will send you my number, so please call this side.”
Luna logged out abruptly leaving those words behind.
Certainly it’s not good if the attack squad member information leaks out in advance.
Because passing and failing would be finalized due to the internally designated personnel.
Especially an Advance Party member who passed will go up and down the community all day long.
Han-bit turning on the sound spoke to the viewers.
“Today I should go early. I will prepare well for the subjugation and come looking for you tomorrow night.”
– Uh?
– Bullsh*t.
– Is it because of the spectator bastards?
– Should I take tools and go look for them?
– Just believe in us.
The anger of the viewers who noticed him being wary of the surrounding players boiled up.
It’s not wrong words, but in the first place, proceeding with the broadcast with the sound continuously turned off is strange too.
“I’m really leaving because there’s a lot to prepare. I will see you tomorrow.”
– ㄲㅂ
– Ryong-bye.
– Ordering chicken tomorrow.
– Subjugation will be super fun right?
– I can’t control my expectations.
– ㅂㅂㅂ
Leaving behind the chatting window swarming up, Han-bit closed the game.
Memorizing the number of the message that arrived, he immediately called Luna.
A short moment where the basic call connection sound continued.
Words were heard from beyond the smartphone speaker.
(Black Dragon-ssi, am I right?)
Luna’s voice tone was somehow raised a bit.
“Yes. Thank you for deliberately making time.”
(You don’t leave out gratitude greetings every time. My father would like it.)
Words handed over laughing as if it’s fun.
Even now the fact that that father is the Chairman of the Yeonhwa Group has no sense of reality.
“Since I’m receiving help, I have to give greetings clearly. Then shall we start right away?”
(Since we have plenty of time, let’s do it while chatting a bit. Will the Chairman of the Yeonhwa Group lick a yogurt lid? Aren’t you curious about things like this?)
“…A yogurt lid?”
A quiz abruptly handed over with her own father.
Somehow he became slightly curious.
“Probably he wouldn’t eat it right?”
(The correct answer is ‘he eats it’. Unni tried to throw it away once, and then he made a straight face you know?)
Small talk that continued starting with an unexpected answer.
All were stories that didn’t have even the size of a fingernail’s relation to the game.
(This is more fun than I thought.)
After almost 30 minutes flowed the small talk wrapped up.
Luna, who seemed satisfied, sent a single video link and continued her words.
(Then shall we start from the first attack squad member?)
