Transcendent Warrior with a Dimensional Shifting Inventory

93

The red dragon examined Minhyuk’s equipment.

Having collected all sorts of rarities in the world, Surinazam had a greater appraisal ability than other dragons.

‘Those are!’

They were items that had now become legends.

Legacy of the ancient humans.

Srinijam knew a lot about ancient humans.

Humans who first received magic from the gods.

The primates of all things.

Ancient humans held a higher status than current humans that was beyond comparison.

In the depths of the ancient dragon’s mind, a distant nightmare from the long forgotten past had awakened.

Tens of thousands of years ago when it was not long after it was born.

Back then, even dragons had to run away from humans with all their might just like rabbits or deer.

There was no other way to avoid being slaughtered by humans’ advanced magical weapons.

However, it was not easy to run away.

Numerous dragons were slaughtered by humans,

and every drop of blood, every bit of skin, and every small bone fragment was used as materials to create magical tools.

At that time, it was considered natural.

Since humans were the top predators.

Ancient humans stood at the top of the natural food chain under the protection of the gods.

The armor Minhyuk was currently wearing and the weapon in his hand were from that era.

So, from now on, it was not a battle.

The red dragon was just prey.

[Where on earth did you get those things?]

Minhyuk slyly smiled at Srinijam’s question.

“If I tell you where I got them, will you go get one for yourself?”

[They should have disappeared already! They shouldn’t exist!]

Sylphir, the flower of ancient human civilization, was destroyed by a great disaster 20,000 years ago.

An unimaginable explosion of magic power vaporized everything.

No one knows why such a disaster occurred.

Anyway, human civilization declined vertically after the great explosion.

And starting with the Great Flood that occurred 100 years ago, humanity was on the path to extinction.

Humans, who were abandoned by the gods, were no longer the primates of all things or at the top of the food chain.

Dragons began to look down on humans ever since then.

And as if to repay the debt of the past, they slaughtered humans without mercy whenever they came across them.

However,

Ancient human artifacts had reappeared in the world.

‘Have the gods really not abandoned humans?’

Anyway, now was not the time to be surprised.

It was time to tuck his tail between his legs and run away quickly.

What good is pride to prey that has caught the hunter’s eye?

He had to run desperately like he did tens of thousands of years ago, back in those days.

Swish-

The red dragon disappeared before Minhyuk’s eyes.

Its goal was to move at an incredible speed and get out of Minhyuk’s sight.

But,

Thud-

He failed to escape by crashing into a strong magic barrier.

‘What is this barrier?’

Swish-

Srinijam took out the Golden Arch from his inventory.

He was planning to teleport far away.

But,

Silent-

The Golden Arch’s curtain of light did not appear.

The Golden Arch allowed him to move even to restricted and holy areas.

But it was not working at all,

‘Oh my!’

Only then did Srinijam realize.

That the magic barrier blocking him was also a relic of ancient mankind.

“Where are you going when the fight isn’t over?”

Minhyuk was holding a magic staff in his hand.

＜Wand of Restraint＞

– A magic tool that creates a binding barrier.

– Deactivates escape magic tools within the barrier.

Minhyuk had not only walked around the Magic Tower Square looking at armor and weapons.

He had also prepared restraint tools that could restrain the red dragon in case it tried to escape like this.

“You said you’d kill me in an instant, but are you trying to run away now? After you had your fun?”

[How dare you humiliate me!]

Despite saying that, Srinijam was already filled with fear.

He had lived for tens of thousands of years, but the older he got, the stronger his attachment to life became.

For hundreds of years, he had secretly researched the ‘Elixir of Immortality’ away from the other dragons.

“I’ll end this quickly. I don’t have a hobby like you where I enjoy toying with my prey.”

Twang-

Minhyuk pulled back the bowstring.

Pew-

Then a light arrow appeared and was attached to the bowstring.

Seeing this, Srinijam shouted urgently.

[Wait!]

“Why? Do you have something to say?”

[Let’s make a deal! I have a proposition for you!]

“I have no intention of making a deal with you.”

[I’ll tell you how to become immortal!]

“Live forever? Is there really such a way?”

[Yes! I have perfected the Elixir of Immortality that allows you to live forever without aging!]

If that’s true, it was a very tempting offer.

However, Minhyuk only smirked.

“Then show me the proof.”

[How do you expect me to convince you?]

“I’ll believe it when you get shot by an arrow and don’t die.”

[What!]

Thwack-

Minhyuk shot an arrow towards Srinijam.

Swish-

The arrow of light flew straight at an incredible speed.

No matter how fast Srinijam was, he couldn’t dodge an arrow of light that flew as fast as the speed of light.

Thud-

The arrow of light hit Srinijam in the abdomen.

Compared to his enormous size, the arrow of light was no bigger than a toothpick.

However, there was a reason why Srinijam was so afraid of the arrow of light.

BAM-

A strong light radiated from the arrow that had pierced his belly.

The light began to react with the Flamma Dragon’s blood.

It was a very violent reaction.

When the gods created all things, they designed everything to have a countermeasure.

The Flamma Dragon’s blood and the divine light were such countermeasures.

Srinijam felt as if every cell in his body was swelling up at once, causing him immense pain.

Kweee-

He screamed, spitting out blood.

Along with a dizzying vertigo, he instinctively realized that if he were to get hit by a few more arrows of light, he would definitely not survive.

However, it was already too late.

Thwack- Thwack- Thwack-

Minhyuk quickly fired three arrows in rapid succession.

The arrows of light flew straight and all hit Srinijam’s body.

Flop-

Thud-

With a single moan, Srinijam collapsed heavily onto the ground.

He could no longer scream or move.

A message appeared before Minhyuk’s eyes.

＜Dragon (Flamma) has been defeated.＞

He had succeeded in hunting the dragon too easily.

It was all thanks to the flameproof armor and the bow of light he had prepared in the tower square.

He realized once again how important equipment was when hunting.

＜As a reward, 2,400 hours of return time will be credited.＞

Thanks to that, I’ve accumulated a whopping 100 days of return time.

As expected, hunting one big guy like an ancient dragon is much more savory than hunting tens of thousands of small fry.

A few days ago, I killed a black dragon in the Demon’s Tower and accumulated 10 days of return time.

In addition, my soldiers were steadily hunting beasts near Asdel and Melbeck Fortress.

If I add them all up,

＜Remaining Return Time: 175 days, 11 hours, 54 minutes, 15 seconds＞

I’ve accumulated over 5 months of return time.

It was almost half a year.

With this amount of time, I can put into practice the various things I’ve only planned until now.

There’s 20 billion won in my bank account with a clear source.

I’m thinking of starting a business with that money.

Of course, I’ll mix in some cash made from gold coins appropriately.

If I start a business that can utilize the refrigerator, there’s no way I’ll fail.

And even if I fail, it doesn’t matter.

I can quickly make another clean seed fund by selling ginseng.

‘And instead of just earning, I’ll live my life spending some of it now.’

Now that I have free time, I’ll live a human-like life by doing things I couldn’t do before because I didn’t have money.

I’ll travel and buy things I want.

I should also start exercising.

If I exercise diligently for half a year, my physique could change to some extent.

‘I’ll get a celebrity PT!’

I meant it.

In this world, I’m a chubby Michael, but when I return to that world, I’m a skinny Choi Min-hyuk.

The gap in physique between the two worlds was too great.

And to be honest, I’ve always had a complex about my skinny physique.

So this time, I’ll hire a proven professional trainer and become a fit guy in the real world.

‘Before that.’

First, let’s collect the spoils of war.

There were quite a few items scattered around the body of the red dragon.

When it died, its inventory also disappeared.

The items it had stored in the subspace poured out.

‘I’ll check those later.’

Whatever the case, Min-hyuk’s top priority was its heart.

Min-hyuk approached the dragon’s body and cut open its chest with his sword.

Then, a brilliantly glowing magic bead appeared.

＜Giant Top-Grade Magic Bead＞

– A giant bead filled with magic power.

– The bead can be used to infuse magic into magic tools.

The ancient dragon’s magic bead was similar in size to that of a normal dragon.

However, its magic concentration was much thicker, making it ‘top-grade’.

The hearts of the green dragons were ‘superior,’ but this was a level higher.

It was the best magic orb I had obtained so far.

Floating-

Minhyuk used telekinesis to extract the magic orb and levitated it in the air.

He then placed the magic orb straight into the refrigerator.

“Return.”

Pop-

With a flash of light, he teleported to the underground parking lot.

And he stood in front of the refrigerator.

‘Please let it have changed into something easy to get.’

Clunk-

He opened the refrigerator door.

Oh!

There was a sizable object inside.

It was a motorcycle.

Minhyuk approached the motorcycle and examined the brand.

It was a premium motorcycle made by a famous Italian manufacturer.

The very maker that thrills riders all over the world,

‘Du**ti!’

Even Minhyuk, who had little interest in motorcycles, knew the name.

The heart of the red dragon had transformed into a luxury motorcycle.

Its wild design awakened an instinct to race just by looking at it.

‘Cool!’

A search on the internet showed that it was priced at about 100 million won.

It was a model that belonged to the high-price line among luxury motorcycles.

It wasn’t cheap, but it wasn’t so expensive that he couldn’t afford several.

‘Let’s buy it right now.’

To complete the grand unification of the Rania continent, the heart of the dragon would continue to be necessary.

Like cars, motorcycles weren’t items you could take home immediately after payment.

It could take months before delivery.

So, if he needed to use it right away, he had to buy it in advance.

Minhyuk searched for motorcycle stores.

There were several stores in Seoul that sold the model, and the company-owned store wasn’t too far from his home.

Vroom-

Minhyuk drove his SUV to the place.

Upon arrival, it was a two-story building with a spacious parking lot.

Entering the store, there was a wide hall with motorcycles neatly displayed.

A salesperson approached and greeted Minhyuk.

“Welcome!”

“I’ve come to buy a motorcycle.”

“Please come this way.”

The employee led Minhyuk to the consultation room.

And while serving him a cold drink, he asked.

“Have you decided on which model you’d like to purchase?”

Minhyuk stated the model he was looking for.

Then the employee brought the pamphlet for the model and spread it out on the table.

“Do you have a Class 2 Small license?”

Motorcycles with an engine displacement of 125cc or less can be driven with just a regular car license, without the need for a separate motorcycle license.

However, to drive a motorcycle larger than that, you need a Class 2 Small license.

The model Minhyuk was looking at had an engine displacement of over 1,000cc.

Of course, to drive it, you’d need a separate motorcycle license.

However, Minhyuk wasn’t buying it to ride it.

“I don’t. Can’t I buy a motorcycle if I don’t have a license?”

“No! There’s no problem at all with purchasing it without a license. But is there a reason you’re so insistent on that model?”

“I don’t need any other model. I’ll take that one, no matter what.”

“Ah··· I see.”

From Noble mtl dot com

“For now, I’d like to buy about 10 of them.”

“What?!”

The employee’s eyes nearly popped out of his head.
