“What is that?”

Lauel arrived at the herb field and cocked his head. Hundreds of bells were embedded in the field, releasing a soft light and making clear sounds. He felt at peace as he listened to them.

“This is a treasure made by Euphemina. From my understanding, it has the effect of preventing herbs from running away. It really works.”

It was only then that Lauel spotted the blonde-haired girl moving in the corner of the field. He approached her.

“Didn’t the server just open? How did you react so fast?”

“During maintenance, I checked the detailed list of additional treasures that were revealed. I heard there is a treasure that makes it impossible for herbs that are at least five hundred years old to escape, so I rushed to this place as soon as I logged in. It’s a simple treasure, so I made it quickly. There were plenty of materials piled up in the guild’s warehouse.”

“The moment you found out that there was such a thing, you predicted that this would happen.”

“You must have thought the same. You just didn’t have the time to check the treasures.”

“I will become familiar with them as soon as I deal with some things. I think I will get a pretty good image of how much the world has changed just by understanding the effects of the treasures. Anyway, do all five hundred year old herbs develop intelligence and run away?”

“No, not all of them. There is a chance for it to happen, though.”

“So now luck applies even to herbs.”

“That’s just how South Korean games work. In any case, with these bells, the problem is mostly solved. I handed over the design to the farmers, so they will be the ones to take care of it in the future. Oh, don’t worry too much about the thousand year old herbs. Piaro is tracking them himself.”

“Thank you for your hard work. We made it through this thanks to you.”

New information arrived just as Lauel exhaled in relief.

“A boss has appeared in the mine that Jokbal created, but… Jokbal can’t control it?”

“Some of the minerals developed egos and are running wild. This means that Jokbal can’t control them. It seems that most attacks don’t work on them, so Peak Sword personally came to support us.”

“We have to dispatch top forces to the fields and mines... Has the ocean expedition team departed?”

“I just got a call. A swarm of flying fish flew in and sank the warships anchored at the docks...”

“What?”

Lauel rarely lost his composure, though upon hearing all this…

It would take some time to adjust to this changed world.

The good news was that the elixirs made from the herbs and fruits exceeded all expectations. Additionally, the boss monster that Peak Sword hunted in the mines dropped some very rare treasure materials.

“Show them to His Majesty first. I will let the treasure research team know to quickly select the treasures that would be good for His Majesty to master.”

“Yes, sir!”
