Chapter 100
A Legendary Enhancement Stone appeared in front of LeBlanc.
[Legendary Enhancement Stone]
– Type: Enhancement Stone
– Grade: Legendary
– An enhancement stone used to enhance Legendary grade equipment.
It was real…
A stone emitting a green light.
When it was just a fragment, the green light was faint.
But the enhancement stone in front of him was emitting a dazzling light that could blind him.
“Sob…”
LeBlanc caressed the enhancement stone and sobbed.
Reigner, flustered by the sight, tried to calm his master down.
“It’s okay, it’s better to just watch.”
Jeong-Hoon stopped Reigner.
“But…”
“How happy must he be to react like that?”
LeBlanc had lived his entire life in the Märchen Kingdom.
The highest grade enhancement stone he could see in the Märchen Kingdom was Epic.
He might have occasionally seen a Unique Enhancement Stone, but never a Legendary one.
‘Even Yeo Sunwoo took so long to get it.’
But did they know?
That this hard-to-get Legendary Enhancement Stone would be released in large quantities in the future.
“Sob… Thank you for waiting.”
LeBlanc expressed his gratitude to Jeong-Hoon with swollen eyes.
His complexion was still bad, but his eyes were still shining.
“Then can we start right away?”
“Of course. Please wait a moment. Reigner, bring out all the ingredients I mention.”
“Understood.”
LeBlanc told Reigner the necessary ingredients, and Reigner went to the warehouse and brought them.
There were dozens of ingredients, and they not only filled the table but also piled up on the floor next to it.
‘That’s a lot.’
[What the hell, why do you need so many ingredients to make one thing?]
Mukho, who had been watching quietly, also spoke up.
LeBlanc compared the recipe with the ingredients and checked them one by one.
“Hmm, it’s all correct. Then let’s start right away.”
LeBlanc’s hands glowed golden.
Then the surface of the ingredients also turned golden, and their shapes began to change little by little.
Some of them merged into one, while others turned into powder and floated up.
It was truly a wondrous sight.
But the common point of all these things was that they all gathered at one point.
A small sphere formed and grew in size, and the bright golden light gradually became cloudy.
An exclamation mark blinked above the sphere.
[Enhancement is ready.]
[Please place the weapon.]
So this was how you equipped the weapon.
Jeong-Hoon took out Anima.
Anima didn’t seem too surprised, as he had been informed beforehand.
“Oh, so it goes in here?”
Anima, perched on Jeong-Hoon’s head, looked at the unidentified sphere.
“Yes.”
When Jeong-Hoon selected Anima, the Anima in his hand disappeared into the sphere.
[Please place the Legendary Enhancement Stone.]
Now he needed the Legendary Enhancement Stone.
Jeong-Hoon selected the Legendary Enhancement Stone and put it into the sphere.
The cloudy sphere started to shine again.
It was green, not gold.
“Oh!”
LeBlanc looked at the sphere with tears in his eyes.
The sphere, made according to the Ancient Recipe, was crude compared to the currently used enhancement equipment.
Its size was unnecessarily large, and the amount of materials consumed in one operation was too much, making it a loss in terms of cost.
But it had one advantage.
Stability.
[Enhancement Prediction]
– Success Rate: 30%
– Failure Rate: 70%
– Destruction Rate: 0%
The success rate of Legendary enhancement was a whopping 30%.
Although it wasn’t even half, it was an incomparable success rate compared to the current 10%, and there was even a 0% chance of the equipment being destroyed.
How could an ancient enhancement device boast better stability than modern technology?
“This is crazy.”
LeBlanc was so surprised that he almost fainted on the spot.
“Master!”
Reigner hurriedly approached and supported him.
“I-I’m fine.”
“You don’t look fine… Just stay here.”
“…Then I’ll ask you a favor.”
“Yes.”
LeBlanc leaned on Reigner and looked at Jeong-Hoon.
“I’ll take care of the rest.”
All the preparations were done according to the recipe.
Now all that was left was to execute it.
‘It doesn’t matter even if it fails.’
The key was that he could get this skill.
Jeong-Hoon immediately proceeded with the enhancement.
The green sphere started to rotate rapidly, and green stardust scattered.
[Enhancement in progress.]
Of course, it would be better if it succeeded.
The sphere, with stardust scattering, stopped moving with a pop!
[Enhancement successful!]
It had actually succeeded, breaking through the 30% success rate.
And that wasn’t all.
[You have used the Ancient Recipe for the first time! You have been awarded 30,000 achievement points.]
[You have acquired ‘Transcendent Enhancement: Legendary’.]
Jeong-Hoon had successfully obtained the skill that was supposed to be Iwase Haruto’s in his previous life.
* * *
Strictly speaking, not all ‘Enhancers’ were hidden classes.
They were divided into normal class Enhancers and hidden class Enhancers.
And Iwase Haruto was a hidden class Enhancer, and his exact class name was ‘Explorer Enhancer’.
Unlike the normal class Enhancer, it started as a Unique grade from the beginning and could enhance equipment up to Unique grade.
It could also search for various bugs in the game, and even fix them to a limited extent.
That wasn’t all.
It was the best class, equipped with both combat and defense skills.
He was currently focusing on leveling up.
[Level Up!]
[All stats have increased by +1.]
[Bonus stat +1 has been granted.]
“Phew, done.”
With this, his level was 132.
[Head to the Ruined City.]
– Acquire the qualification to obtain the power of transcendence.
The power of transcendence.
Whatever it was, it was a power he had to obtain.
The Ruined City could be entered from level 151.
That meant he had to raise his level by another 19.
‘It’s okay. The Ruined City is a dungeon that people neglect anyway.’
A dungeon that no one paid attention to.
So he had plenty of time.
Iwase Haruto returned to the village for a while.
It didn’t mean he was resting just because he returned to the village.
[Please enhance my equipment! – Lv. 221 Anonymous]
[Please enhance my equipment! – Lv. 188 Anonymous]
[Please enhance my equipment! – Lv. 243 Anonymous]
The enhancement request board that opened for those who walked the path of an Enhancer.
The request board was a place that users could use, and it had the advantage of being able to trade without having to meet face-to-face.
“There are so many today too.”
Naturally, Iwase’s request board was always busy.
The average number of transactions per day was around 200.
It was all the result of successful marketing with the title ‘Explorer Enhancer’.
Iwase Haruto enhanced the Epic grade one-handed sword he received from the request and handed it back to the client.
– Oh! Thank you so much! But it’s a bit of a shame that it failed twice ㅠㅠ
Disappointed?
He was greedier than he thought.
– My success rate for Epic grade is 87%. Failing twice out of 17 attempts is a pretty decent result.
Iwase replied to the client skillfully.
– That’s true, but….
– If you want to restore it, let me know. I’ll adjust the number of attempts for you. It’s 200 gold per restoration.
– Ah… I’ll think about it.
– Okay.
Iwase clicked his tongue.
A guy who has a lot of greed but nothing to show for it.
Explorer Enhancer Iwase Haruto could enhance Epic grade equipment with an 87% success rate.
It was a high enough figure to be classified as top-tier when compared to enhancers around the world.
It meant that a user who hadn’t even reached level 200 was on par with ranker enhancers.
Because of that, when it came to enhancers in the Japanese server, people mentioned Iwase Haruto.
[Whisper/Shun -> EnhancementHaruto: Haruto-san~ Are you busy?]
At that moment, a whisper arrived from a familiar nickname.
It was his childhood friend, Kaneda Shun.
How could the guy who went to study in Korea a month ago send him a whisper?
[Whisper/EnhancementHaruto -> Shun: You, what? How did you whisper me?]
[Whisper/Shun -> EnhancementHaruto: Actually, I came to Japan this morning~ I’ll be back after the weekend!]
[Whisper/EnhancementHaruto -> Shun: Really? That’s amazing. You came into New World as soon as you arrived.]
[Whisper/Shun -> EnhancementHaruto: I had something I really wanted to tell you, Haruto!]
[Whisper/EnhancementHaruto -> Shun: To me?]
[Whisper/Shun -> EnhancementHaruto: Yeah! Haruto, didn’t you say you were going to the Ruined City when you reached level 151?]
[Whisper/EnhancementHaruto -> Shun: I did.]
Kaneda Shun had played New World with Iwase before leaving for Korea.
That’s why he knew where Iwase was planning to go after reaching level 151.
Of course, he had no way of knowing about the power of transcendence since he had kept it a secret.
But why was he suddenly mentioning the Ruined City?
Iwase focused on the whisper.
[Whisper/Shun -> EnhancementHaruto: I was watching YouTube the other day, and I saw a video of someone clearing the Ruined City! It was so fast! They were using something called cheat codes.]
[Whisper/EnhancementHaruto -> Shun: Is that true?!]
[Whisper/EnhancementHaruto -> Shun: When?!]
[Whisper/EnhancementHaruto -> Shun: What video is it?!]
Iwase sent whispers repeatedly with a panicked face.
[Whisper/Shun -> EnhancementHaruto: Haruto! Calm down! What’s wrong?!]
Damn it, what’s wrong?!
If someone had cleared the Ruined City, it meant that they might have already taken the power of transcendence.
‘…This is not the time to be doing enhancement business!’
It was time to level up.
Iwase hurriedly moved to the field.
Unaware that the power of transcendence he was aiming for had already been taken.

[Dragon Anima Bone Bow (+1)]
– Type: Bow
– Grade: Legendary
– Attack Power: ? (Adjusted according to the wearer’s level) (1.2x applied)
– Critical Hit Rate: 10 ~ 15%
– Reduces damage reduction due to level difference. (Legendary only)
– Remaining Durability: 100%
– Special Ability (1): Infinite Mana Arrows are generated. (Mana Arrow damage increased by 10%)

– Special Ability (4): Ancient Dragon’s power is applied. (Skill can be registered)
– Remaining Enhancements: 19
===
Anima’s enhancement was successful, and all of his stats increased overall.
Attack power increased by an additional 1.2 times from the original, critical hit rate increased by 5%, mana arrow damage increased by an additional 10%, debuff probability slightly increased, and the passive Black Flame, which almost never activated at 0.1%, increased to 1%.
And the remaining number of enhancements was also displayed.
It would be displayed after one enhancement, and the full enhancement level was +20.
‘Oh… Now I can come out freely too.’
The biggest change was that Anima could now appear in front of Jeong-Hoon in spirit form even when he wasn’t holding it.
‘That’s good.’
[Humph, good my ass. Now there’s another noisy one.]
‘Isn’t it better than having a potty mouth?’
[What?! Potty mouth?! You can’t even bite properly with that long tongue of yours!]
Jeong-Hoon, watching their conversation, checked the newly acquired skill.
[Transcendent Enhancement: Legendary]
– Type: Enhancement
– Level: 1
– Grade: Legendary
– Can enhance equipment. (Up to Legendary)
– Success rate for each equipment (Normal 100%, Rare 100%, Epic 80%, Unique 60%, Legendary 30%)
– 0% chance of equipment destruction upon failure
– Enhancement attempts are not consumed upon failure
Jeong-Hoon tried casting the skill once.
A small amount of mana was consumed, and a holographic window appeared in front of him.
It was a window where he could enhance equipment by inserting the equipment and enhancement stone.
‘This is crazy.’
Seeing it in action, it was no joke.
The success rate for Legendary was a whopping 30%.
And it didn’t even consume enhancement attempts.
It was a cheat skill that could definitely enhance equipment to +20 if he had enough enhancement stones.
That’s how Iwase was able to monopolize Legendary equipment and enhance them.
‘Iwase Haruto, you’re finished.’
Even if he was the hidden class Explorer Enhancer, without this skill, he wouldn’t be able to reach the position he had in the previous life.
The corners of Jeong-Hoon’s mouth slowly rose.
