-Conqueror of Oren’s library (Wisdom +10)
“……”
Soo Hyuk was left speechless after he checked the title, ‘Conqueror of Oren’s library’ . He could only think:
‘Isn’t this kind of underwhelming after reading all those books . ’
The condition to acquire the title was to read all the books . But only 10 extra wisdom? He was left with an empty feeling after comparing the acquisition condition and the effect of the title .
Soo Hyuk then closed the title screen and checked his character .
Level: 8
Experience: 51%
Vitality: 2540
Mana: 26420
ραndαsΝοvεl ƈοm Satiation: 40%
Strength: 14
Agility: 15
Stamina: 48
“So 1321 wisdom……”
Looking at the overwhelming amount of wisdom compared to the pitiful main stats, Soo Hyuk couldn’t help but have a slight smile .
Soo Hyuk then closed his character screen and opened the inventory after . It was to recharge his satiation, which was below 50% .
“I didn’t know there were some left . ”
He murmured as he took out two pieces of hard bread from his inventory . There were still three left after he took out two .
“I should’ve bought a couple more then?”
This was not the bread he bought before entering the library . He ate all of them in a month before buying some more . Soo Hyuk ate his remaining bread as he looked around the library . It was full of sparkles when he first came here, but after he read all the books, there wasn’t even a sliver of a sparkle to be seen .
“Huu-”
Soo Hyuk let out a satisfied sigh after comparing the current library and when he first came here . And so he ate all his bread while comparing the past and present, then checked the time .
“Looks like I have to log out . It’s getting late . Let’s go to Matab tomorrow . ”
It wasn’t compulsory to log out at this time but, he didn’t want to break his promise with himself if there wasn’t something urgent . And Oren was a place you couldn’t return to after you leave . It was only possible after erasing your save file, so he was planning to look around Oren slowly then go to Matab .

Soo Hyuk left the capsule as he logged out . Feeling a wave of stiffness, he began to stretch . After he finished stretching, he turned on the computer and checked his phone . There were messages from his parents and Yeon Jeong .
“So they can’t come home today . ”
The time was different but the content was the same . Soo Hyuk then checked his friend’s message .
Yeon Jeong
-Did you finish them?
The message was simple . After seeing the message, Soo Hyuk called Yeon Jeong on the phone .
“Is he gaming?”
Yeon Jeong did not answer his phone, so he was probably gaming . Soo Hyuk left a message for him and went on the Pangea homepage on his computer . It was to check whether there was any interesting news .
“……Nothing really happened . What about the notice board…… Nope . ”
As expected nothing came up . After double checking the homepage, Soo Hyuk got up from his seat and went to the 3rd floor . It was time to exercise .
***
Beep! Beep!
Soo Hyuk woke up to the sound of the alarm . He quickly got up from his bed and started stretching to get rid of his sleepiness . When he checked his phone, there were messages from his parents and Yeon Jeong again . But he quickly froze as he read his parent’s message .
“……?”He couldn’t help but feel doubt after he checked the message .
“Vacation?”
It was a message about going on a vacation . Of course, that was not strange in itself . The strange thing was the destination .
Father Let’s go to Pangea soon!
Mother I don’t know if your father told you . There will be a capsule technician coming at 10am! The installation place is the living room!
“Pangea?”
The vacation destination was Pangea .
“Were my parents into Pangea?”
It was my first time hearing it .
“Wait, since the capsules’ coming now, they’re going to be just starting?”
Soo Hyuk replied to the message and opened Yeon Jeong’s message .
Yeon Jeong So you finally finished! So when will we go to Matab? You can leave me a message . I’m going to be logged on at around 1 pm .
“So the technician is going to come at 10 am . ”
Soo Hyuk’s mother’s text said that the technician’s going to come at 10 am, and Yeon Jeong will be logged on at 1 pm .
It seemed like he could finally talk with Yeon Jeong again . Soo Hyuk put his phone down after replying to his message .
“The time is……8 am . ”
The current time was 8 am with 2 hours left until the installation and 5 hours to the meeting with Yeon Jeong . Soo Hyuk thought about what he could do in that time .
“Let’s not log on . There could be a call from Yeon Jeong or the technician . How about exercise?”
***
“The installation is finished . Sorry for taking so long . ”
The technician said to Soo Hyuk after the installation .
“No, it’s nothing . ”
“If there are any problems, please contact me! I’ll come right away!”I think you should take a look at ραΠdαsnovel.cοm
The technician handed Soo Hyuk his contact details while smiling at his comment .
“Have a good day, sir!”
The technician left while saying goodbye after Soo Hyuk received his contacts . And so, Soo Hyuk went back to his room .
“We promised to meet at 1pm, so 2 hours should be enough . ”
The promised time was 1pm and the current time was 11am, with 2 hours left until 1pm . Soo Hyuk could easily reach the meeting place within 2 hours .
So Soo Hyuk went into his capsule and logged on to Pangea .
Whirr!
The dark capsule changed to a scene of a library where he previously logged out . Soo Hyuk looked around the library again . It was a very familiar scene .
He was very fond of this familiar scene . While looking around with eyes containing a mix of regret, longing and pride, Soo Hyuk turned towards the exit .
“Here is your pass . ”
As soon as Soo Hyuk left passed the exit, Kejan the librarian gave Soo Hyuk’s pass back to him . While receiving his pass, he thought,
“Now this pass as well……”
He didn’t need it anymore . But it was an item filled with memories . Soo Hyuk opened his inventory and stored his library pass .
“Goodbye . ”
He closed his inventory left the library . Soo Hyuk slowly trudged along after he left the library .
“Aiahh……”
Soo Hyuk let out a sound as he admired the architecture around him as he walked . It was 2 months since he started Pangea . However, he spent almost all his time in the library and paid no attention to almost everything else .
He hadn’t thought about the buildings in the town then, but the buildings were surprisingly interesting even for a beginner town . It was as if he was in a novel called Pangea . “Let’s go . ”
After spending 1 hour exploring Oren, he set out towards the town square . Not to mention the meeting time, it was time to go to Matab .
“Are you going to be a Brawler?”
“No, it’s not even a good job and you can’t change from one special job to another as well . ”
“So what are you going to be?”
“I’ll just be a warrior and stick with the Berserker tree . ”
“Yeah, Berserkers are kind of similar to Brawler . ”
“I think Berserkers are kind of better if you think about the amount of work you have to put in . I can’t grind 24/7 on a game so how can I raise the experience?”
“Yeah, I agree . ”
“What about you? Are you going to be a Brawler?”
“No, I’m thinking about being a Berserker as well . ”
Soo Hyuk could hear the different users’ conversations as he stood in front of the town square .
“Is the Brawler job that bad?”
Special job ‘Brawler’ . Soo Hyuk also knew about it as well . However, he didn’t think that the users’ opinion of it would be so low .
“Yeah, I suppose raising Brawlers are difficult and being difficult to raise doesn’t mean that it’s more powerful .
When Soo Hyuk thought about it, it made sense that people didn’t like the Brawler job as special jobs are harder to raise compared to normal jobs . And it also didn’t mean that they were in a different power level than normal ones . Heavy investment with little return meant that of course the opinion of the Brawler job was going to be bad .
And so, Soo Hyuk reached his destination while eavesdropping on other conversations .
His destination was where an NPC called Kodra warped other people to the place that they wanted .
“I gotta wait a little more……”
Soo Hyuk thought as he approached Kodra . There were already many people lining up for their turn . Soo Hyuk went to the back of the line and started to wait .
“He won’t be late, right?”
The promised time was 1pm . He wandered around Oren until 12pm and took 10 minutes reaching the town square which meant that there were 50 minutes left . Looking at the lengthening line, he felt a bit nervous .
“Next! Next! Next!”
But when he saw the fast speed of the line, he felt reassured .
“Looks like Yeon Jeong won’t be late . ”
“Next!”
It was finally Soo Hyuk’s turn so he said to Kodra,
“Please send me to Matab . ”
“Sure thing!”
In response to his request, Kodra waved his staff at the portal .
[Warping to ‘Alliance of Magicians, Matab’]
At Soo Hyuk’s feet a small magic circle appeared with the message . Then the space around him began to distort . The distortion did not last as it the space around him stabilised and a scene appeared in front of him .
“Which one is this?”
The warp destinations were not set in place as there were eight portals in Matab . Warping to Matab could take you to any one of the eight .
“I hope it’s Hall No . 2 . ”
Soo Hyuk wanted to go to Hall No . 2 as it was the closest to the meeting place . It wouldn’t even take 20 minutes by walking .
“Selling mana potions! They can significantly increase your wisdom stat! Come and take a look!”
“I’m looking for a party to do a quest!”
“This robe can increase your wisdom by 5 points! We have a red, blue and green robe each!”
“Selling skill-books! There are ice ball, slow and fire ball books!”
The distorted space was finally completely stabilised . Soo Hyuk could hear people around him yelling to one another .
“Where is this?”
Soo Hyuk looked around to determine which hall this was . As he looked around, he found a sign which had the location .
“……”
Soo Hyuk couldn’t help but scrunch his face after reading the sign .
