I never run out of mana Pt. 2

chapter 114-143

114. A + X = New World

I informed the commander and Ho Jin the information that I obtained from the goblin Karin.

It was because the commander had requested me to share information with him before.

That was one of the reasons why I visited.

The other reason was that I needed help from them.

It was possible to do it alone, but it would take a long time if I did so.

I asked the two that were sitting in front of me.

"This was what I wanted to let you two know of first. I wasn't able to obtain information about the monsters or their weaknesses, but it's still better than nothing."

"Hm.... Thank you. It's something at least. So they're extremely strong."

"Yes. It seems it won't be an easy fight."

"We'll have to be fully prepared....."

"Thank you, Mr. Min-Cheol. But what about that favor you wanted to ask of us? What would that be?"

"Ah. I wanted to learn about the location of a hidden portal."

"The location of a portal?"

"Yes. The level 34 portal dungeon in Paju that you informed me of isn't useful anymore."

"Ahem! Ahem ahem!"

At my words, Ho Jin looked at the commander.

The portals were spread throughout the entire nation.

Out of those, not many were higher than level 30.

The locations of those portals seemed to be treated as classified information in the association.

It appeared as though that he didn't report to the commander about informing me such locations yet.

However, the commander smiled as if he had expected this ahead of time.

"Do you now understand now why my mood lightened when our lad Min-Cheol entered, HoJin?"

"Hohoho. My apologies. I forgot to let you know...."

"Ah..... Seems I spoke out of turn."

"Hoho. You probably knew it already, right commander?"

"I had my suspicions with the master ID disappearing from time to time. It's not an issue. You made the right decision."

"That's right, hoho. Then...."

"My lad Min-Cheol. Tell me. What is the portal level that you wish to know the location of?"

"Hm.... 40? Since the year has passed, isn't there a level 41 portal now?"

"Since it hasn't been the date of the first portal's appearance, the portal ring wouldn't have increased by one yet. Almost as if there needs to be a birthday or something, the portal level won't rise until exactly 365 days have passed. You'll need the location of a level 40 portal then."

"Yes. I'll be counting on you for the locations of portals in the range of level 38 to 40 please."

"But Mr. Min-Cheol. As you told me before, I thought you don't gain much from leveling? It would be better for you to obtain skills instead....."

"Hm.... He probably wants to obtain artifacts."

"Yes, that's right. I'm asking in order to obtain artifacts from hidden bosses of the dungeons."
