Became the Weapon Monopolist of the Gods-Chapter 52: New Transcendent

The number of summoning slots increased, but unlike Vanessa, the Transcendent One did not appear right away.

Instead, a jet-black luxury car quietly stopped near the store.

It was such an expensive model that even people passing by stopped and stared.

A car with an R&R mark.

A Roll X Roy.

It was a limited edition Phantom Bespoke.

‘Wow, how much would something like that cost?’

The person inside must be incredibly rich.

While I was looking at the car, the driver’s door opened and a familiar person got out.

“Huh?”

My eyes widened at the familiar appearance.

A neat and tidy suit that showed her upright personality. Blue eyes that contained a lake.

The person who got out from inside was Rachel.

While I was watching, Rachel opened the store door and came inside.

“Seojun, I’ve come to pick you up.”

“Rachel, you’re here early.”

“I decided it would be better to get going early to get to the gate. If you have anything to do, I’ll wait.”

“No, I was just waiting for Rachel.”

I had an appointment to meet Rachel today. It was about Napoleon’s relics.

At that moment, Jeanne heard the door open and came out.

“Rachel, welcome.”

“Jeanne, it’s been a while.”

The two had already become acquainted at Toulon Gate, so they greeted each other warmly. Then came Vanessa.

“I’m Vanessa Walker.”

“I’m Rachel Bonaparte.”

“I heard you helped Eun-gong.”

“Eun-gong......,”

Rachel, who had been puzzled, shook her head as soon as Vanessa’s gaze turned to me.

“It wasn’t a big deal.”

“Hmm, I see.”

Vanessa, who had been trailing off, smiled brightly.

“Please take care of me.”

“Please take care of me too.”

Did Vanessa usually greet people like that?

It was an unexpected reaction for Vanessa, who was indifferent to everyone except me and Jeanne.

I’m not sure if it was a good reaction.

“All three of you, please go. I’ll escort you to the gate.”

“Thank you. But...”

I looked at Rachel’s black jacket pocket and tilted my head.

Woohoooong─

Her phone had been ringing since a while ago.

“Do you mind not answering?”

“It’s not important, so it’s okay.”

Rachel took out her phone and pressed the reject button. She left the store and was about to get in her car.

“This is Rachel Bonaparte. You’ve received a call.”

─Your Majesty! How many times have I told you not to drive yourself overseas! And last night, again, clothes-

Bam.

Rachel, who had hung up the phone, turned to me and said calmly.

“It’s nothing. Get in.”

“Oh, yes.”

Judging from her natural reaction, it seemed like this wasn’t the first or second time.

I couldn’t tell what it was about, but I felt like it was nagging.

“It’s nagging.”

Jeanne whispered quietly in my ear.

It was nagging, as expected.

It seems that even the head of the Bonaparte family gets nagged.

I felt a strange sense of humanity from Rachel, who was always upright.

Anyway... ... .

‘This is no joke.’

As soon as I got in the car, the daytime world became night.

The Milky Way was twinkling on the ceiling, and there was even a small refrigerator between the seats.

“Let’s go.”

Rachel, who got into the driver’s seat, drove the car smoothly. It feels like I’m being treated.

‘I should buy a car later too... ... .’

It’s a wardrobe license, though.

“Rachel.”

“Yes, go ahead.”

“I heard that the purpose of the gate you’re going to today is to retrieve Napoleon’s relics.”

“That’s right. I found out that Napoleon’s bicorne is in the Hall of the Goblin King.”

I heard the general reason for the visit from Rachel before I left.

The purpose was to retrieve Napoleon’s relics.

Of course, not all relics of great people are good.

The value of a relic varies greatly depending on how much meaning the great person put into the relic.

Just like you can’t consider something you’ve used for a few days the same as something you’ve used for a lifetime.

That’s how it was in general.

‘Not Napoleon.’

Napoleon was famous for giving meaning to his own things.

He valued every item he used or gave, to the point that even the smallest item would be considered a ‘rare’ item.

That’s why Napoleon’s relics were so widely spread out.

It’s safe to say that every item from the ‘Bonaparte Imperial Family’ was Napoleon’s relic.

However, Napoleon had a strong love for himself.

The relics he left behind could not be handled properly by anyone other than Napoleon himself.

The problem was that if the relics fell into the hands of a monster and were contaminated, they would exert a certain amount of power.

If they were relics that Napoleon had placed great value on, it would be a disaster.

This was also why Rachel wanted to retrieve Napoleon’s relics.

I followed him because he said I could have them if I retrieved them.

‘It’s good for me if I have them.’

If they’re useful, I can use them, but if not, I can absorb the relic’s magic into the alabaster.

I was the only person in this world who could fully awaken Napoleon’s relics.

‘The bicorne was at this gate.’

I suddenly asked Rachel out of curiosity.

“I know there are quite a few bicornes of Napoleon....... How many are there in total?”

“According to the estimate from my family, Napoleon had 326 bicornes in total.”

“Estimate?”

“Yes, if you look for more, you’ll find more.”

“.......”

Is this man the hat king?

I now recalled my meeting with the old Napoleon.

Even back then, Napoleon often changed his hat.

He wore a new bicorne every time he entered the store.

According to one theory, Napoleon was known to throw his bicorne to his men during battle and use it as encouragement.

The rifle that the person who gave me so many relics gave me a legendary level, so was it something to brag about?

My heart was in a strange state.

“I’ve arrived.”

While I was thinking about it, I arrived at Inwangsan where the gate was located.

As I climbed the old stone steps, a gloomy forest unfolded.

[Entering the Hall of the Goblin King.]

A dark forest with a ghostly atmosphere.

Blue goblin lights occasionally danced in the forest.

‘The atmosphere is different because it’s a higher gate.’

The Hall of the Goblin King was Gate A-2.

It must have been different from the gates I’ve experienced so far.

Maybe it was because of my mood, but the air felt heavy.

Kuung, kuung.

The forest rang and a goblin holding a club appeared. It looked similar to an ogre, but the problem was that it had two heads.

‘Twin-headed ogre?’

Since it was Korean, I thought it should be called a goblin rather than an ogre.

Now that I look at it, it has three arms.

“Kurur...”

Two pairs of bloodshot eyes glared at us.

And.

Swoosh─

One of the goblin’s heads fell to the ground.

Before he could be surprised, the limbs and the rest of the head were separated one after another.

“Let’s go.”

Rachel, who had swung her sword, was wiping the blood off the blade.

As if she had caught some kind of mob.

“Ah, yes.”

I followed Rachel who was ahead.

Before that, let’s recover some magic power.

─The amethyst absorbs magic power.

As we entered the forest, goblins with deformed limbs and heads appeared one after another.

However, there was no tension.

Hwaaak!

“Keuuuuuu!”

The goblin that was hit by Jeanne’s light rolled on the floor with both eyes covered.

Scream— Crunch— Crunch—

It was cut down like a weed by Rachel and Vanessa.

“Um, what should I do?”

“Eungong, catch the goblin we missed from behind.”

“I think that would be better.”

There’s no goblin we missed... ... .

─The amethyst absorbs the magic power.

The amethyst floating in the air is dead.

I absorbed the goblins’ magic diligently.

And... ... .

“Ancestor-! You can catch it!”

Rachel sent a goblin to help me train.

“Kkuu, kkuuu-”

‘Oh, this one is a bit pitiful to catch... ... .’

The goblin Rachel sent me already had only one arm left.

Even its posture looked a bit crooked.

‘Anyway, it’s pretty strong.’

Without letting my guard down, I approached the goblin with the shadow.

“Kkuuu!”

I avoided the goblin’s attack swinging its one remaining arm.

Phew!

I finished it off by stabbing its chest with the twin dragon swords.

I dodged, stabbed. It was quite satisfying.

After that, Rachel sent the crippled goblins one by one.

‘Is this awesome?’

It felt like he was sending me to the last blow.

I thought for a moment, ‘Is this okay?’, but I quickly erased it.

So what?

Good is good.

Since it’s a high-level gate, the training was secretly good. The magic power is also considerable.

─ The snow stone absorbs the magic power.

In the distance, a goblin wearing Napoleon’s bicorne on one side of his head was running towards me in anger.

“Ancestor, thank you for your hard work.”

“Eungong, thank you for your hard work.”

“Seojun, thank you for your hard work.”

“What did I do? All three of you worked hard.” freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

It felt awkward to hear a greeting when I hadn’t done anything.

“No, Ancestor. Your movements have improved since before.”

“Is that so?”

“Yes. Eungong, you have definitely improved.”

“The shadow report has increased. I think it would be good if you ❀ Nоvеlігht ❀ (Don’t copy, read here) continue to work hard like this in the future.”

...Is that so?

I only went around one gate.

I was wondering if it was long, but since all three of them said that, it really seemed like it was true. It definitely seems like the number of times has increased.

It also seemed like they were praising me to stay in the rear.

Leaving the feeling of discomfort behind, I picked up Napoleon’s bicorne that I had harvested from the gate.

─ Napoleon’s rifle recognized Napoleon’s 168th bicorne.

[Napoleon’s bicorne (168)]

[Rank: Rare]

This bicorne was given to Constantin, Napoleon’s personal barber, by Napoleon, who was satisfied with his hair. If you wear it, you feel like your fears will disappear from the battlefield.

‘This is a troll item.’

Now I think I understand why the goblin wearing the bicorn hat didn’t run away even when its limbs were cut off.

But.

“Can I really take this?”

“You can take it if you want. Just make sure it doesn’t fall into the hands of a monster.”

After receiving Rachel’s permission, I absorbed the bicorn hat’s magic into the alabaster on the spot.

Woofwoofwoof─

The alabaster that absorbed the bicorn hat’s magic vibrated.

‘It seems to have gotten darker.’

If I just fed it a little more magic, I thought I could put it in the relic slot.

But I should increase the slots first.

“Thank you, Rachel.”

“I’m glad I could help.”

Rachel smiled faintly.

“Then where should I go for the next gate?”

“...Are there any more?”

“Yes, 38 relics of Napoleon have been confirmed in Korea.”

Is this person the relic king?

It was ridiculous, but I was happy for him.

All I had to do was increase my horsepower.

After clearing the gate, we got in Rachel’s car and returned to the store.

“See you next time.”

“Thank you for your hard work.”

As Rachel bowed her head and got into the driver’s seat, the car started moving a little later.

Booooooong──

After watching the car leaving for a moment, I opened the store’s door.

But.

“Hmm?”

There was a person I had never seen standing inside the store that was clearly locked.

‘Thief?’

It was a large man with bronze-colored muscles.

“Eungong, please step back.”

Vanessa blocked my path and looked at the man with a cold gaze.

“Ah, excuse me. The owner is out, so I’m just looking around.”

The man raised his head.

His intense, beast-like amber pupils turned to me.

At the same time, a phrase came to mind.

─ I encountered the Transcendent of the Failed Worldline.

The man I thought was a thief was the Transcendent who had found my store.
