Chapter 301: Siblings Selling Ramyeon

After they had succeeded in recapturing Elven Forest, Legend Guild quickly climbed up in the Korean Guild Rankings and reached 13th place. However, compared to the guild’s reputation and achievements, the results this time were quite shabby.

Genie looked out of the window and thought, ‘Minhyuk keeps on getting stronger.’?

When they first met Minhyuk in the game, his strength was already overwhelming for his level. However, the gap between them had now widened even further than back then.

In fact, every member of the Legend Guild felt that there was a huge wall in front of them when Minhyuk hunted Barach. However, none of them felt frustrated. They kept on hunting like crazy in order to catch up and reach him. All of their guild members were working hard. And the guild master, Genie, also wanted to climb higher. She wanted to make Legend Guild the best guild in the world, not just the 13th in the domestic rankings.

Then, Haze said, “So, this is a kingdom. So cool.”

Genie slowly turned around and made eye contact with Haze.

Haze was a smart girl. She was successful in bringing up the low sales and income of Valhalla territory by 700%. She was even able to reach another 1,000% increase this month by reaching out to various businesses.

‘Really amazing and objective. And…’

Genie had nothing else to say. After all, Haze only spoke the truth.

“For the first time, a foreigner would become a king of a kingdom in Asgan Continent. There’s nothing more awesome than this title. However, for that kingdom, master will have to yield,” Haze said, stabbing Genie with her dagger-like words. Although Haze spoke those words politely, Genie felt that she was picking at her weak spots.

Not too long ago, Minhyuk told them that he received a class quest, ‘Building a Kingdom’. If one was building a kingdom, then, there should be a king. Would Genie be the king?

‘No.’?

Only when Minhyuk became a king would his class quest be completed. Minhyuk was extremely excited to do this kingdom construction quest. And there was only one reason why he was so excited, especially since he only ever got excited with food.

‘Genie! Think about it! I can make a kingdom filled with delicious food where no one will get hungry!’?

That was right, because this was also somewhat related to food.

However, Genie’s thoughts were different. In order for Minhyuk to become king, he might probably need to leave the guild. It was because only a guild master was qualified to become king. However, that would weaken Legend Guild’s powers. Not only that, they might also become a hostile force towards their friend, Minhyuk.

Haze was implying that Genie should hand over the Legend Guild’s guild master position to Minhyuk.

“Minhyuk has wide connections throughout Athenae. There will be significantly different results if Legend Guild’s guild master is Minhyuk, as opposed to Genie.”

Genie could not deny her words.

Eivelis Empire’s Empress Ellie.

Collodis Empire’s Emperor Asvon.

Black Dragon and the Boys.

There were also Alicia, Lucia, Ruwan, Black Mage Ali, and many more. In fact, even Japan’s Musashi Kentaro had praised Minhyuk not too long ago. There were a lot of powerful and influential people that cared for and liked Minhyuk.

In other words, there was a need to replace the master of the guild for their guild to achieve explosive growth. Genie had to slowly let go of this position. Only then will the guild become the best guild in Korea, and probably the world.

“I will proceed only after getting everyone’s approval,” Genie said, shaking her head.

Would Genie approve of it? It was a guild that she had built, and she was just going to hand it over? Well, she might have built it, but it was a guild that was built with the dream of becoming the best together. She would choose the most optimal path to achieve their dream of being the best.

Then, at that moment, Minhyuk came inside.

Oh,?Minhyuk.”

“I brought something big to help our guild.”

“A big one?”

Genie’s expression turned strange at Minhyuk’s words.

“Yeah. I got information about this place called Atlas.”

Guild members of Legend Guild hurriedly gathered at Valhalla territory. The reason was simple. It was because Minhyuk had gotten information about a territory called Atlas.

Just the explanation about the territory alone was amazing enough. In the explanation, there was a line that said ‘The land that has been hailed as the legendary land that all the monarchs dreamt of owning.’ Upon hearing that, the guild members’ dreams and ambitions had reached the peak.

‘Perhaps in that new territory… we can become stronger and we can have power.’?

‘We don’t know, but maybe there’s a better hunting ground in the vicinity.’?

‘Maybe there are amazing quests hidden in the area.’?

It was a territory that was in the legends. There might be limitless possibilities in that place. While the Legend Guild members were busy, Conir was also moving quickly.

He was able to successfully complete the Level 2 quest at the entrance of the Demon World’s Tower, the quest about the ramyeon combination, with the help of Black Dragon. Then, his Level 3 quest was to find a way to enjoy mixed noodles. Conir wondered about it for a long time until Minhyuk gave him some help.

‘How to enjoy mixed noodles? First, you should prepare about 20 packs of mixed noodles so you don’t run out. Then, prepare about four kilograms of meat, like pork neck and pork belly.’?

‘Twenty packs of mixed noodles, four kilos of pork belly, Conir wrote it all down…!’?

‘Right. Prepare them and go to the valley and enjoy yourself. You can even play in the water. When you’re tired, grill some pork belly and boil some mixed noodles.’?

‘Conir will cook mixed noodles. Conir will grill some pork belly!’?

‘That’s right, that’s right! You can eat your mixed noodles with your pork belly, while still wet with the water on a bench under the shade of the valley. If you eat it like that… Kghhhk!’?

‘Kghhhk! Conir will try too! Thanks, hyung!’?

Hence, Conir tried it right away, and when he did, he thought he heard the angels sing.

‘As expected of hyung!’ was what he felt when this happened. He could still remember the feeling of eating the sweet and sour mixed noodles and pork belly after being exhausted from playing in the water.

Sluuuuuurp!

Conir slurped his drool as he recalled that moment. Then, he finally completed the handcart that he was preparing.

‘Conir’s Ramyeon to-go.’?

There was one reason why Conir prepared a ramyeon shop. It was because of his next quest.

[You have completed the Level 3 quest: How to Enjoy Mixed Noodles.]

[You have learned the passive skill ‘Delicious Ramyeon from Time to Time’.]

[The Level 4 Quest. Selling Ramyeon has been created.]

The Delicious Ramyeon from Time to Time worked according to the situation. It would not work if one just ate it. It would only work if one sneaked out at one in the morning to a convenience store, ate out on the terrace, or cooked it outdoors while fishing. It depended on the environment too. Originally, ramyeon was already delicious if one were hungry outside and had nothing else to eat. However, this skill maximized the effectiveness of that.

The Level 4 quest was literally just selling. By selling ramyeon, it meant that he had to generate about 1 platinum of sales. It was also included in the description that the ‘sincerity’ of the one that would eat would also be included. Since the Level 4 quest was a bit special, the following quest was immediately stated, as well as the rewards.

[Level 5 Quest. The Most Delicious Ramyeon in the World.]

[Create an instant ramyeon filled with passion. Present two meaningful bowls of ramyeon to someone. Make it so these two bowls of delicious ramyeon are unique and can’t be seen anywhere else in the world.]

Conir wanted to hurriedly finish his Level 4 quest to give Minhyuk a bowl of ramyeon. That was the reason why he opened up a shop.

“Conir!! Conir will be rich starting today! Wow! Wow! Wow!”

Meanwhile, the Legend Guild members had already gathered.

“Who’s that…?” Locke asked, tilting his head after seeing Conir standing in front of his handcart.

Thanks to the allowance that Minhyuk gave him, Conir was able to buy and wear a Japanese ramyeon owner’s outfit with a headband that said ‘Conir’s Ramyeon!’ on his forehead.

“I think he’s Minhyuk’s new vassal?”

“The Ramyeon Master?”

“I guess so.”

That was all. The guild members did not pay him that much attention.

Then, Conir approached Minhyuk after he had prepared everything. He said, “Hyuuung! Hyuuung! Conir!!! Conir is going to command the continent with ramyeon!!! The Ramyeon Merchant, Conir!!!”

Ramyeon Merchant Conir. The guild members that heard this thought that he had a strange and weird naming sense.

However, Minhyuk’s eyes were sparkling. He said, “That’s so cool?!”

“Hyuuung, Conir!!! Conir is going to sell ramyeon!”

Minhyuk nodded. It was alright even if Conir was not with him while he was on his way to Atlas. After all, Conir was someone that he could summon and call at any time. So, Minhyuk just took out various parchments, travel necessities, and potions.

“This return parchment will send you back to the village if you rip it. This…”

Minhyuk explained the items one by one. And Conir…

“If Conir grabs and tears the parchment… Conir will activate it?”

…grabbed one parchment and tore it apart.

“...I…I just pretended to rip it! Why did you really tear apart…”

Heok!?Conir! Conir made a mistake!”

Conir turned into a light and disappeared. Then, Minhyuk saw what was written on the paper.

‘Instant Teleportation Parchment?’?

The instant teleportation parchment would randomly choose a place to go to. There were pros and cons to these parchments. If one were lucky, they would probably be able to go to unexplored lands randomly anywhere on the continent. The only downside was that one could encounter a being that was much stronger than your level.

Minhyuk pondered for a moment. He thought, ‘Should I call for him right away?’?

No, Conir would be summoned to the summoning room on his own if he was in danger. That meant that everything would be fine.

***

Conir was actually teleported to the entrance passage via the instant teleportation parchment.

“Ant, do you want to eat some ramyeon? Lizard!!! Do you want some too?”

Conir actually recommended eating ramyeon to ant soldiers and basilisks that were above Level 500. Those that attacked him died quickly.

“Conir! Conir will become rich here!”

Conir hunted the boss mob and opened up his store here. However, even after one hour, ten hours, two days… no customers came.

***

Ma Tianyu was China’s number one assassin and the third in the top rankers list. He had declared that there was no one, whoever they were, that he could not kill, as long as he wanted to kill them.

Ma Tianyu had joined hands with Zhang Chen. He had also expressed his desire to acquire valuable treasures, artifacts, and skills from Black Dragon Vormon. So, he entered the portal and tried to collect information on Minhyuk and the baby piggy, Beanie.

Through Vormon’s portal, he entered a passageway that was called Entrance Passage. He dealt with high-leveled monsters and finally came face-to-face with ‘Conir’s Namyeon To-Go’ at the end of the passage.

“First customer! I’m Conir! Conir sells ramyeon!!! Buy ramyeon!”

‘...?’

Ma Tianyu could not understand the situation for a moment. Then, he thought, ‘A boss mob? Is this how it’s like on the Korean server?’?

Ma Tianyu suddenly attacked this unidentified being.

“Conir!!! Conir is angry!!! You’re not going to buy, but you’re bothering Conir! Hyung said that Conir can scold people if they bother Conir!”

And Ma Tianyu…

Crack

Keok!!!

…fainted on the spot after being stabbed in the chest with a wooden chopstick. When he came to his senses, he had already turned into a panda and was met with a bowl of ramyeon.

“Eat ramyeon, Conir!!! Conir sells it!”

“...”

Ma Tianyu had never faced something this bizarre in his life, ever.

‘This boss mob is clearly over Level 600…!’?

Ma Tianyu ate the ramyeon believing that he would get out of the entrance passage if he finished the bowl. Alas, the boy said, “You’re not sincere!!! Conir will give you another bowl!!!”

So, he ate another bowl. Two or three days had passed with him doing nothing but eat all day. He sent a whisper to Zhang Chen to somehow get him out of this situation.

[Ma Tianyu: Are there any trials in the Korean Server?]

[You can’t send a whisper in this area.]

Sadly, not only was whispering prohibited from the entrance passage, most of the communications were also prohibited. Whenever Ma Tianyu had time, he would move from place to place and try to send a whisper.

Sometimes, although extremely rare, he would be able to get a signal in some areas.

[Ma Tianyu: There’s a demon here. It’s a boy but he locked me up here and gave me 20 bowls of ramyeon a day. Save me!!!]

[The reception is not good.]

[Only the words demon and boy had been sent.]

Ma Tianyu was in despair. He did not see any other way out. It was impossible, even if he wanted to die. He was once again beaten until he was bruised with the scooping net when he tried to attack the boy.

‘I’m… the number one in the assassins rankings, Ma Tianyu but… I got hit by a scooping net.’?

He almost cried. As time went by, Ma Tianyu panicked. He even resorted to begging.

“S…stop…! Please. It’s my fault!!! So, stop now! Please send me back!!!”

He even cried and screamed.

“Conir!!! Conir won’t forgive the bad person that attacked first!!! Eat ramyeon!”

Ma Tianyu did not know this, but while on his mission to steal information about Minhyuk and the Supreme Divine Beast Beanie, he was already beaten by Minhyuk’s vassal, Conir.

Then, the boy suddenly moved. The body of a woman, who was hiding in the direction where the boy moved, was revealed under a bright burst of light. She was wearing silver armor, a silver horned helmet and a dazzling red cape. The cape had the pattern of an altar and a sword.

‘Va… Valkyrie Mei Wei…?!’

Ma Tianyu immediately knew her identity. Unlike the treatment that he received, the boy bowed his head politely as he greeted his new customer. Of course, their treatment would be different since Ma Tianyu was someone that had tried to attack Conir out of nowhere.

“A second customer! Welcome! I’m Conir!!!”

Then, he asked her with a big smile, “Which do you put first in a ramyeon, the noodles or the soup?”

Mei Wei answered, “Of course…”

Ma Tianyu gulped dryly. He thought, ‘If you answered wrongly… you will be punished by eating ramyeon here!’

Then, Mei Wei continued to say, “You have to put the pot first, Little Boss.”

“...!!!”

This was the moment when Conir realized what logic was in this world. That was right. Instead of saying water first, you should definitely place the pot first. This was literally the world’s logic! Conir realized that he needed something to start anything with this logic.

“W…wooow… ge, genius… Waaaaaah!!!?An amazing genius!!!”

The boy was left in shock, while Mei Wei, who still could not understand the situation, was pondering deeply. Mei Wei and Conir did not know that this encounter would shake the entire continent.

Meanwhile, Black Dragon Vormon checked the current situation through a hologram, using the power that he planted on Ma Tianyu, when he heard from Zhang Chen that he did not receive any news from the information source that he sent.

“...”

Black Dragon Vormon was left speechless. He was finally resurrected after hundreds of years, but a strange boy was sprinkling ramyeon powder on the person that he had sent to check on the location of the Supreme Divine Beast.

“I’m about to go nuts…” Black Dragon Vormon said, its voice tinged with dumbfoundedness.
