“Is this all I am to Halo?” Kang Shin-hyuk had suspected that the scythe had been made by his previous life the second he had encountered the priest. Seeing that it broke the vortex of his spiritual wind so easily, you could tell in an instant that it was made with spiritual power. It also had been too simple to take away from him and store it in his inventory. Items originally owned by someone else couldn’t be freely placed in the inventory. Were such a thing not possible, that fight would have been much harder. Nevertheless, he was able to take it away and hide it because he was the one who made it.

[Falling Scythe]

[SS-rank]

[Special abilities: Harvesting, Fall Harvest, Earth Communication]

* Harvesting: The chance of a critical hit is extremely high when harvesting a target. With each repetition, the weapon’s performance and effectiveness are permanently amplified.

*Fall Harvest: Movement speed and attack speed are increased by 30% when holding this weapon—the effect doubles in autumn.

*Earth communication: It is possible to share energy with the earth. This effect strengthens when you are stepping on the ground.

[It was originally a simple farming tool, but the work of harvesting human necks instead of crops caused it to deteriorate. It is currently insecure and incomplete.]

“Really…” It completely wasn’t a farming tool!

“How did you lose this?”

[Didn’t the old Anvil know this well? Groups like Jormungand have always coveted such objects. It seems like they took this from my children without my eyes reaching them.]

“Hmm.”

[Perhaps there are quite a few of your works wandering around the universe in this way.]

“I know. Last time, I retrieved an ax.”

[Then this will be quick.]

Halo heaved a sigh.

[Many of your works have fallen into the hands of Jormungand. They desire to go back to you. It’s no coincidence that this sickle is back in your hands.]

“No…” Wasn’t that too sad of a story? He was sorry that the items his previous life had made were collected by such an annoying group, but they wanted to return to him even if it meant opening gates to Earth?

“Administrator, didn’t you say it was a coincidence before?”

-Even I cannot know everything about your work, but it’s not bad. If they are aiming for Earth, if you can collect them, you won’t regret it.

“Really…”

[Don’t mind it. They are beings made to fight anyway. Rather, it might be better now that you fight them directly.]

Halo was right, and Kang Shin-hyuk slowly realized that fact himself. There wasn’t anything he could do. Because of him, the forces of Jormungand arrived on Earth with special artifacts, so why not take responsibility? The only thing he could do was train to the point where he could retrieve the objects each time.

‘I couldn’t have thought this way before.’ Kang Shin-hyuk quietly smacked his cheeks and stood up.

“So what can I do with this? Are you asking me to help in farming with it?”

[That’s not it. How could I use high-quality human resources like you for such a thing?]

Apparently, he had forgotten Kang Shin-hyuk had been plowing the field with the elves a while ago.

[That sickle. That’s not the only one.]

“Huh?”

[I ordered a pair, and you definitely made it that way.]

“…” He had a brief image of himself in a black coat with two of them that he urgently shook away. Had he been hanging out with Claire for too long?

“So where is the other one? That is also with Jormungand…no, wait.”

[Right. I did notice it.]

Halo sounded satisfied.

[It’s still in this world, but it’s not in good shape. In taking one of them, the other was sealed.]

Neither Jormungand nor Halo could release the seal that had been placed on the one that remained, and in the end, Jormungand’s forces retreated from this world.

[In fact, what I wanted to ask of you was to bring back the sickle sealed here. It is set so that only you can unlock it.]

“I see.” It was starting to look like a quest. No wait, it was a quest.

[I was originally going to ask you when you’re ready, but seeing as you got the other sickle back, I think I underestimated you. There’s nothing more to prepare, so we can start right away.]

“You really pamper people…so where do I go?” Instead of responding, Halo motioned upwards with his higher branches.

“…It’s in your terminal?”

[Exactly. I sealed it at the top of my terminal.]

“Halo, be honest. You enjoy your games, don’t you?” The sealed legendary equipment (read: farm equipment), a man who had to climb a high tree (or terminal) to obtain it… wasn’t that the example of an old story? The summer vacation would be over by the time he managed to climb up there.

“Can you drop it down?”

[It was sealed.]

“Then it can’t be helped.” Kang Shin-hyuk sat down on the spot, thinking. After a moment of silence that Halo was about to break, he pulled something out of his inventory.

“I was going to put it off for another time…but I have no choice.”

[Well?]

It was armor bigger than Kang Shin-hyuk, shaped oddly like a cow. Rather, it was a cow, the artifact that he had acquired in that ancient world.

[Blue cow]

[SS-rank]

[Special Abilities: Lightning, Lightning Speed, Thunder God]

*Lightning: Fires lightning at an enemy. When cast under the sky, its power doubles. This doubles again if it is raining.

*Lightning Speed: By consuming spiritual power, you can move as fast as lightning.

*Thunder God: A body forged by lightning. It ignores lightning strikes and will absorb external energy to recover itself. It becomes reinforced anytime it absorbs lightning.

[The form of a beast that threw itself into a lightning storm to protect God. As the years passed, it wandered through the world and found itself in the hands of those unworthy. It won’t be easy to repair it to its original form without a blacksmith that deals with spiritual power.]

[Another unusual thing.]

“I didn’t make it.” Kang Shin-hyuk was still imbuing his spiritual power into the artifact whenever he had a chance, but it was still difficult to use it as it was. He had been hoping to renovate it during the process, to shape its unusual appearance to be something a bit more manageable. His goal was to make it look like the magic bike that Claire usually rode around.

“In the end, if this guy is also made of metal, I can shape the outside to look like a bike.”

[I am suspicious of your mind, Anvil…]

-1HP bonus to Halo, who read the administrator’s heart.

It was an absurdly small bonus, but it was also the first time he saw one being applied to a member other than himself. Kang Shin-hyuk ignored the duo’s comedic skit and examined the cow.

-Koo…

It was weak, but it had an ego. It quickly swam through the air to approach Kang Shin-hyuk as he breathed more spirit power into it.

“I was hoping to complete this guy by the end of vacation.” He wanted to do so secretly and show it off to Claire. The administrator remained silent at that.

[Wouldn’t it be nice to just ride it up now?]

“Honestly, it’s not worth riding now. I need to fix it somehow.”

-Kuoo…

The blue cow weakly cried out, making it known that it wasn’t made to be ridden originally. However, it was ignored as Kang Shin-hyuk began to pull out various books, drawings, and miscellaneous materials from his inventory. Among them, the centerpiece was the design drawing of [Thunder Dragon]; a $30 million magic driven bike released by Mystic, an armament brand exclusively made for superhumans.

[Huh, the world you live in is great to give out such advanced knowledge casually.]

“Actually, I saw it in the shopping mall and scoured it with spiritual power to make this blueprint myself.”

[…]

Long live spiritual power. In front of Kang Shin-hyuk, with his blacksmithing skills and ability to see through an object’s fundamental structure with his spiritual power, any complex technology had no choice but to reveal itself to him. Of course, he was still a little sorry.

“It’s not intended to be translated as it, though, it is for reference only.” The interior part didn’t really matter, after all. Kang Shin-hyuk only needed something that could support its mobility. The principle was different from a magic bike that used an engine to gain speed and fly.

“So I have blueprints for other vehicles and gadgets to help.”

[…I guess I’m wrong. Sealing is tricky, but if I transfer you to the branch…]

“Then, I will make it from now on, so don’t disturb me.” Halo just wanted to see Kang Shin-hyuk climb up the branches like some legendary hero, but his wish was in vain. He kept silent as he watched Anvil focus on the blueprints.

-A 3,000HP bonus for members who carry out their will anytime, anywhere!

As always, only the administrator was excited.
