“Wow.”

“Oho.”

Soo-min proudly stared at Rosy’s true form. This is what Rosy would look like when it was fully grown.

Eternal, inextinguishable orange flames were characteristic of a Phoenix. A Phoenix was a bird wrapped in these flames! Rosy’s wings and tail, which were entirely composed of flames, gave off a mysterious vibe.

Of course, it wasn’t nearly large enough to be considered a full-fledged legendary bird. After all, it hadn’t gotten large enough to destroy the entire passageway.

Shriek!

Rosy let out a brilliant cry and softly flapped its wings. Then, flaming feathers fell from its wings and landed on Soo min’s shoulder.

Was it because it’d pulled out its own feathers? Rosy gradually diminished in size until it returned to its original shape.

Chirp.

Rosy flew back to Soo min’s chest. She then petted its head.

He gave a gentle smile and then turned his attention to the flaming feather in his hand. Mysteriously, it wasn’t hot at all. In fact, it radiated a pleasant warmth.

[Phoenix’s Feather]

[The feather of a Phoenix, which is wrapped in living flame. It is a gift that a Phoenix gives only to those it trusts most. The flames won’t go out until the Phoenix returns to being an egg.

So, long as the flames persist, the effects are as follows:

Heal and Heat Buff: Any action that replenishes your HP, whether it be medical attention, a healing spell, draining, or life steal, is buffed by 50%. In addition, your body remains warm, regardless of where you are.

Ultimate restore: You may use ‘Phoenix’s Life Force’. If you use this ability, then your HP is instantly restored. However, the Phoenix’s Feather will disappear.]

‘It’s amazing.’

Adam was shocked. The feather’s ability was far greater than he’d expected. As expected of a legendary bird’s feather!

The feather’s first effect would increase Blood’s life steal. Moreover, the second effect, Phoenix’s Life Force, was like his Resurrection; it was one-time useability that may save his life.

“Thanks, Rosy.” he placed the feather inside his inventory.

Chirp!

“Oppa,” Soo-min said.

“Yeah?”

“Where did you get that book?”

“I got it as a gift from the Master of thief guild.”

“Can you get another one? I think Rosy really liked the book’s flames, of course, I will pay”

“Alright, I’ll see what I can do.”

“Thanks.”

“I’d like to chat with you some more, but I think I’ll have to go now,” Adam said goodbye and quickly left the place.

“Call me later.”

“Alright.”

Adam and Ariana were walking through the thick forest and finally, they reached a log house.

“Um, Adam why are we standing before this log house?” Ariana asked as she tilted her head.

Adam gave her a gentle smile and said nothing. There were two reasons, as for why adam, was here, the first one was to earn a skill [Super Swap] this was the main reason, the second reason was to increase his resource there is a hidden MP spring here.

Though it will be still a guess that he could obtain the MP spring, better to try it right?

Right beside the house, there was a water wheel that was slowly turning to the flow of a clear river.

In front of the house were a small field and some unchopped firewood that was probably left there are after chopping firewood.

The sounds of the small birds echo pleasantly.

Adam approached the house, ‘KonKon’ he knocked on the door and waited.

After a while, the door opens from inside.

Who came out, was a white long beard man using a staff.

“For someone to come here, how rare, come inside. In these places, there are a lot of dangerous monsters”

The old man said that and let both of them enter the house.

Inside the house, there were only a few pieces of furniture.

If one asked which one was the most interesting, on the top of the shelf around the ends, there was an old small sword that was emitting a very certain presence.

After that, without saying anything, Adam sat in the chair that was near the table, Ariana also quickly followed his suit.

The old man placed two teacups with tea in front of that Risa.

“Both of you should drink, your body should get relaxed a little”

“Uhm, thank you very much,” Ariana said as she drank the tea. Adam also took a sip from it.

As the old man had said, their body really got relaxed a little.

Precisely, it was the tea brewed from MP spring, adam guessed this instantly.

“It was good, Can I help you in any way,” adam asked and the quest was triggered.

“Hmm, there is something that I need, both of your help with”

A new window popped up, before them.

[QUEST: HELP BENJAMIN IN EXTERMINATING THE MONSTERS NEAR THE MP SPRING

Grade: B

Rewards: Unique skill: [Super Swap]

Time Limit: 3days]

Adam rejoiced in his heart after seeing the quest window, “We will be glad to help you”

“Really? I’ll leave it to you here” the old man gave a glass bottle to adam “huh recently, the condition of my feet had worsened, Please bring some of the magical water”

Again, a blue-colored monitor appeared in front of Adam

It was stated, Yes, No.

Adam pushed the Yes, and accepted the second quest.

“Well then, we will go now!”

“Then, I’ll count on you”

The monsters that are inhabiting around here are mostly 2 types.

The first one is the Big Spider.

As its name is, it was a large spider. Its size is about 1 meter and its spider thread attack that binds the target is very troublesome.

The second one is the Sleep Beetle.

It is a beetle that has status debuff attacks that make its target asleep. Its size is only a little bigger than the normal beetle, so it is a scary monster that is easy to be overlooked and receive a surprise attack from.

They properly arrived at the springs for about 30 minutes.

“It’s beautiful,” Ariana said admiring the spring.

“whoosh…”

Suddenly, something shoots up towards her, Adam quickly grabbed his girlfriend and rolled over the side.

After few moments, a group of spiders and a leader spider revealed their presence.

Adam didn’t have his equipment but, he took out the basic wand from the inventory, ‘This is enough’

*HyunHyun*

To his surprise, the threads of the spiders sounded from the top of the trees, before he could react they captured Ariana, her HP also started to decrease drastically, Adam quickly summoned his golems.

He let his summons deal with the spiders on the ground and he climbed the tree to deal with the spiders above. He also dropped some of the HP potions to Ariana.

“Ice Spears”

The spiders were instantly killed by adam. “These monsters are very weak, but they gave me a huge amount of EXP”

[EXP]

[Spider silk]

[Spider Silk]

The golems quickly handled the spiders on the ground, they even took care of the leader spider easily.

Adam found the location of sleep beetle by using his new skill ‘Essence reading’

They were only the size of his palm, so, he gave the job of killing them to his glome.

“It’s from here, huh”

Adam drew the water to the glass bottle and put it in her inventory. The time limit is one hour.

If she cannot reach the log house within the time limit, the second quest will end as a failure.

[Quest One: Completed]

At the same time he also received the notification, he didn’t waste a single second and quickly headed towards the log house.

“We should go”

“Hum”

They quickly arrived at the log house in 30 minutes.

Adam opened the door of the log house.

“I have returned!”

“Ohh! I have been waiting for you”

“I have to give my gratitude let me see, come here for a second”

After saying that, the old man brought out one scroll from the drawers.

“You can learn the skill [Super Swap] with it. Remember, the skill can only be learned with two people”

This was the reason, why he bought Ariana with him, this skill will be useful for them in the upcoming events.

After saying that, the old man again, returned and gave adam a seal which was full of glyphs and drawings.

[You have obtained the MP Spring]

[You can start to produce potions with it, after creating or joining Guild]

Adam smiled as he stared at the seal in his hand and placed it on the inventory.

The old man turned blur and disappeared from the place, adam also headed towards Nora’s shop.

‘By this time, they should have completed the pieces of equipment’
