Transcendent Warrior With A Dimensional Shifting Inventory 65

The lumberyard employee brought out the same type of wood that Minhyuk had brought from the warehouse.

He was able to hear the exact name of the wood from him.

“It’s African Blackwood.”

It was an expensive wood used to make things like musical instruments, fountain pens, and seals.

That didn’t mean it was as expensive as gold, though.

A forearm-length square timber cost about 100,000 won.

Compared to other woods of similar size that cost a few hundred or thousand won, it was incredibly expensive.

“Can I buy them one at a time?”

“Of course.”

“I’ll take just one for now.”

Minhyuk returned to the truck and put the lumber in the refrigerator.

“Return.”

BAM!

With a blinding flash, he was back on the lakeside of the Helkan Mountains.

When he checked the refrigerator, the dragon bone had been replaced with something completely different.

＜Rainbow Ginseng Root＞

– Medicinal herb.

– When dried and mixed with honey, it is effective for coughs.

He had put in the same ingredient, but it had turned into something completely different.

‘What’s wrong?’

Just then, Minhyuk’s eyes fell on the princess.

As he looked at her blonde hair, something came to mind.

The princess’s intact hair turned into a $100 bundle, but her cut hair turned into dragon incense.

“Return.”

BAM!

Minhyuk moved back to the truck bed.

He had recently purchased a tool set and put it in the bed of the truck.

Minhyuk opened the tool bag and took out a saw for wood.

Screech, screech-

He cut off the corner of the African Blackwood lumber.

Then he put it back in the refrigerator to see what it would turn into.

It turned into a dragon bone fragment.

‘That’s it!’

The standard-sized lumber was also a commodity.

If you cut wood randomly, it would just be scrap wood, but if you cut it to a certain size, it would become a lumber product like ＜2 by 2＞ or ＜4 by 4＞.

If you put those in the refrigerator, they would turn into something completely different, not dragon bones.

He cut off the corner and made it lose its value as a commodity, so it turned into a dragon bone.

‘Could it be?’

Was the lumber used for the dunnage not a problem with the type of wood, but rather that it was a commodity, so it turned into something completely different, not a dragon bone?

Minhyuk returned to the lumberyard and bought different types of lumber, cut off the corners, and put them in the refrigerator.

And he knew for sure.

Only the African Blackwood turned into dragon bones.

Minhyuk bought African Blackwood lumber of various sizes.

He used a saw to cut off the corners of the lumber little by little, making them lose their value as commodities, and then put them in the refrigerator.

Then, they all turned into dragon bone fragments.

The small lumber turned into small bone fragments, and the large lumber turned into large bone fragments.

‘Perfect!’

Minhyuk handed all the dragon bone fragments to Barlin.

Thud-thud-thud-

Holding the dragon bone in both of his hands, Barlin trembled with excitement.

Just a while ago, he was wandering outside Kaho’s territory, risking his life to find the mineral of the stars.

But thanks to Minhyuk, he got to touch a material of a higher dimension.

“Your Majesty… I really…”

Minhyuk spoke to Barlin, who was overwhelmed with emotion and could not speak properly.

“Can it be processed?”

Ah!

Barlin snapped back to his senses.

Swish-swish-

Then, he began to rub two pieces of the dragon bone fragments together diligently.

Ordinary extensions could not cut or trim the dragon bone fragments.

He was checking if he could process the dragon bone with the dragon bone, just like how diamonds were polished with diamonds.

Swish-swish-

After rubbing it for a long time, Barlin examined the surface of the bone fragments carefully.

It was very minimal, but it was worn out.

“It can be processed! It will take much longer than when processing metal, though.”

“Then start working on it right away.”

“Yes, Your Majesty!”

The first things to be made using the dragon bone were arrowheads and a sword.

He planned to make various weapons such as modern firearms in the future, but for now, he would make things that could be manufactured and used quickly.

If the arrowhead of the large arrow was changed from the existing metal of the stars to the dragon bone, it would be able to kill the bastard.

And he would use the sword made from the dragon bone to cut open the bastard’s chest and pull out its heart.

Clang-

Minhyuk opened the Gaon.

“Everyone, move to the castle!”

Now that he had found the dragon bone, there was nothing left for the expedition to do.

Minhyuk moved all the members of the expedition to Asdel Castle.

In the end, only Minhyuk and Golem remained on the Helkan Mountains.

“Shall we wrap things up?”

[Yes, Master!]

Clankety-clank-

Golem began to pull the wagon containing the Gaon.

He was going to move the Gaon back to the Tarmine Fortress.

If there were several pairs of Gaons, he could have left one on the Helkan Mountains.

However, he only had one pair now, so he had to guard it well.

If he left it here and a dragon happened to snatch it, it would be a disaster.

Clankety-clank-

Minhyuk looked up at the sky while sitting on the wagon.

In the night sky, the stars were shining brightly.

***

Far to the west of Asdel Fortress.

On a rugged mountain peak was the nest of the Akara Dragon.

Thud, thud-

The Akara Dragon was limping.

It had become lame from the battle with Minhyuk.

If it had quickly put the severed leg back in its original place and used recovery magic, it would have healed cleanly.

However, it was too busy hurriedly escaping outside of Gaon’s jurisdiction to do so.

The dragon was furious as it recalled the red-haired man who had left it with an incurable wound.

In all its thousands of years of life, it had never hated someone so much.

Flap, flap-

The dragon took flight.

And quickly moved towards the west.

Whoosh-

After flying for an entire day, it arrived at a huge island floating on a lake as vast as the ocean.

That was where the dragons’ palace was located.

Flap, flap-

From Noble mtl dot com

The dragon flew into the palace.

The interior of the palace was so large and tall that even a dragon of its enormous size could fly freely.

In the center of the palace was a towering stone monument.

A red dragon was perched on top of it.

It was several times larger than the Akara Dragon.

The red dragon asked the Akara Dragon.

[Vanak, you’ve been coming here a lot lately. What is it this time?]

The Akara Dragon had visited this place not long ago to obtain a magic scroll.

[Great Srinijam! I have a story that you must hear.]

[I hope this story is not for the purpose of satisfying your own selfish desires. It would pain me somewhat to kill you. Your father and I were quite close.]

It was a warning from the red dragon to not speak nonsense.

[This is a story about the prosperity and safety of the entire race. If we make a mistake, even the Mother of the Sky may be put in danger.]

The Mother of the Sky was the only dragon who could lay eggs.

Although there were various types of dragons that existed on the Ranian continent, they were all born from eggs that she laid.

The Mother of the Sky lays unfertilized eggs while in a state of dormancy.

If a male Akara Dragon obtains the egg that she laid and breathes his essence into it, an Akara Dragon is born from that egg.

[Tell me the details.]

The Akara Dragon began to tell about Minhyuk.

[A human has crossed over from another world. Just like that time···.]

***

Rumble, rumble-

The wagon carrying Gaon arrived at Tamirn Fortress.

A soldier standing guard on the castle gate shouted as he saw Minhyuk sitting atop the wagon.

“His Majesty has returned!”

Creak-

The castle gate opened.

Minhyuk, who had entered the fortress, had the soldiers put Gaon back in the underground space.

‘It’s all over.’

Everything had been taken care of, but he wouldn’t return to Asdel Fortress immediately.

If he returned to the fortress, he would be extremely busy with the postponed internal affairs management.

That’s why he planned to stay at Tamrin Fortress until he succeeded in his first dragon hunt.

Thud-

Ballin came over from Asdel Fortress through Gaon.

He had the sword made from dragon bones in his hand.

Thud-

Ballin kneeled before Minhyuk and respectfully offered the sword with both hands.

“I offer this sword to Your Majesty, the Lord of Asdel and the Emperor of the Unified Empire!”

Minhyuk accepted the sword.

Ballin’s voice and elaborate gestures created a solemn atmosphere, but Minhyuk didn’t feel anything special.

That was because he knew about the existence of the rocus alloy, which was stronger than dragon bones.

He would only use this sword temporarily until he acquired the rocus alloy.

“What about the arrowheads?”

“The arrowheads are complete as well.”

Ballin offered Minhyuk the arrowheads made from dragon bones.

He only needed one longsword made from dragon bones.

However, he needed a lot of arrowheads.

If he could turn the arrowheads into something that was easy to mass-produce like refrigerator items, he could mass-produce ‘dragon-catching arrows’.

If he could mass-produce the complete arrows, including the tips, shafts, and feathers, the blacksmiths wouldn’t have to go through the trouble of assembling them.

However, the arrows were over 2 meters long, so they couldn’t fit in the refrigerator.

Minhyuk put the arrowheads in the refrigerator.

“Return.”

Pop-

With a flash of light, Minhyuk was transported to the back of the truck.

He opened the refrigerator door and checked inside.

There was a bottle filled with liquid.

‘Is it alcohol again?’

He picked it up to check and it was sesame oil.

＜100% low-temperature pressed domestic sesame oil/220㎖＞

It wasn’t cheap, but it was something that could be mass-produced without any problems.

‘Perfect!’

Minhyuk drove the truck to a warehouse-type discount store.

And he put various sesame oils from different food companies in the refrigerator.

Everything had gone completely wrong.

There was plenty of 100% pure sesame oil, but there weren’t many products that used domestically-produced sesame seeds.

And there wasn’t a single product with 220ml in a bottle.

Minhyuk checked the label on the sesame oil bottle that had the shape of an arrowhead.

The company name and address were written on it.

＜(Love and Share＞

＜Location: Yongin-si, Gyeonggi-do…＞

He searched it on the Internet and found that it was a small-scale company that produced sesame oil.

It was a product that was not stocked in large marts, so it could only be purchased online.

He needed at least a thousand arrowheads.

So he had to buy 1,000 bottles of sesame oil.

He couldn’t receive that amount by courier or delivery service.

‘Let’s go there and buy it myself.’

Vroom-

Minhyuk drove his truck and headed to the sesame oil factory.

***

A sesame oil factory in Yongin, Gyeonggi-do.

A man in his 60s and a woman in her 20s were sitting face to face with a coffee table between them.

“Stop messing around and get back to work now.”

“Do you think this is a joke, Dad?”

The woman in her 20s was the president of the sesame oil factory.

She had graduated from a prestigious university and worked for a foreign company, but she suddenly gave up everything and started a sesame oil factory.

“I told you to gain some social experience and help me with the family business, but what kind of nonsense are you doing?”

“It’s not nonsense, it’s a real company!”

“What kind of company is this? It’s just a gathering place for good-for-nothings who are wasting taxpayers’ money.”

The sesame oil factory was a social enterprise.

Since its operating profit was always in deficit, it couldn’t continue operating without government subsidies.

Most of the employees here were elderly people over seventy or people with intellectual disabilities.

“Other companies are desperate because they can’t secure competent personnel… Do you really think what you’re doing is a business?”

It was natural to hire competent employees to create competitive products.

“If everyone only wants competent people, how will the marginalized get jobs?”

“Why do you care about those people? If you’re going to talk such nonsense, just give it all up and get married!”

At that moment, an employee entered the president’s office.

“President, a customer came and said they need 1,000 bottles of sesame oil.”

“Really?”

“They said they’ll buy 1,000 bottles for now and keep buying more if they need them later.”

The female president exclaimed to her father as if she had won a lottery.

“See, our products are competitive too!”

Tatatat-

The female president, dressed in jeans, ran to the reception room.

Selling 1,000 bottles would bring in about 30 million won in revenue.

She wanted to greet the big-shot client in person, so she went to meet him.

“Hello, I’m the CEO, Koo Eun-young··· Huh!”

She was surprised when she saw the customer’s face.

“You’re Choi Min-hyuk!”
