Thông qua kết nối cá nhân của Styrene, ông đã rõ ràng để một số phạm vi ngày tình huống khác Guild cầm quyền lâu đài và làng. Đại diện của thị trấn không rời khỏi vị trí của mình, trừ khi có một vấn đề nghiêm trọng. Đó là bởi vì nếu bạn giao phó chính cho người cao tuổi này hay cách khác cao quý, chi phí trên vô dụng khía cạnh được nghiêm trọng. Morata của chi phí trong lĩnh vực văn hóa nghệ thuật đã được tuyệt vời đủ rằng họ đã không thể tưởng tượng ở trung tâm châu lục này."Tốt. Morata thậm chí có một lỗ để nó. Nếu nó đầu tư trong văn hóa nghệ thuật, sau đó các chất thải sẽ được nghiêm trọng và nó sẽ sụp đổ nhanh chóng."Styrene kéo nhau guild của thiên văn các quỹ để tăng số lượng smithies và phát triển các kỹ thuật có liên quan, đầu tư một whopping 780 ngàn vàng. Ông đã phát triển thành phố rất nhiều như là một thành phố cho Blacksmiths. Xây dựng một guild trận và thậm chí một guild ma thuật, ông strove để vẽ trong cầu thủ."Không có không có chỗ ở phía bắc có một mức độ phát triển công nghệ cao hơn Trivan Village. Trong thời gian, nơi này sẽ cũng trở thành là lớn như Morata và phát triển trong nhân dân."Styrene và bạn cùng guild của mình đơn giản chỉ cần đợi cho ngày hôm đó tới. Họ đã rất vui mừng rằng họ không thể thậm chí ngủ đúng vào ban đêm. Trong khi họ đã chờ đợi, như các nền văn hóa phát triển ở Morata, người dân bắt đầu tận hưởng thị trấn. Người mệt mỏi từ săn bắn, tham quan, cuộc phiêu lưu, và nhiệm vụ thoải mái rất thích bài hát, tác phẩm điêu khắc, tranh vẽ, và nghệ thuật.Culture didn’t even take much money. There were keepers making bunnies act cutely, performers, and even players who displayed their japtem and boasted. Morata’s players were happy.Ding!– 35 residents from Trivan Village are moving to Morata.The complaints of the residents are intense.The residents came complaining to Styrene.“Why is our village failing to thrive like Morata, my Lord?”“There’s nothing for the village children to play with.”“Even after finishing hard work, I have no enthusiasm for life. I think this town is too desolate.”The residents were deeply dissatisfied over the lack in culture. Morata’s residents were continuously growing, but Trivan Village’s population of just 3,000 was continuously falling. The loyalty of the town soldiers also fell, and work efficiency didn’t rise, either. As the residents decreased in number, silk production fell and the fields they had cleared with difficulty remained empty; they couldn’t even collect resources from the mine. Following the decline in residents, there were even cases where quests naturally disappeared. Players would come after struggling to finish a quest, but the store owner who was supposed to give them the reward had gone and disappeared. Plunged into a shocking situation, the players asked the residents but the reply was really the last straw.“The weapon shop mister? He moved to Morata the other day. It won’t be easy to set up a new shop there, but they say it’s a village that people really want to live in. Me? I’m going to Morata soon, too. If you want to fulfil the work that was entrusted to you, go to Morata.”Ding!– 23 Trivan Village residents are moving to Morata.The residents want a religious establishment.“I want to see Goddess Freya. Thankfully there’s a goddess statue in the village next door, so we will spend the rest of our lives there.”“How happy must our Morata friends be as they receive the blessing of faith? Going to Morata will bring one closer to the goddess!”The residents continued to leave. Wanderers visiting the North had been settled in Trivan Village by giving them money and food, but they moved away. As a result, the village’s population was just barely 3,000 and didn’t grow.Until now, Lords had worried over economy, technology, and military power. They viewed culture with scorn and paid no attention to it. If many Bards visited, they were even treated poorly for being noisy and annoying. What use was a rise in culture! Investing the maintenance fees or construction costs of culture-related facilities in other places was considered far more profitable.There was no change in that way of thinking in other places in the continent, but Styrene was currently feeling an acute lack of culture. To make matters worse, he even received news of the issue he had worried most about.“Guild master, they say Morata’s Lord Weed has returned.”At the guild member’s report, Styrene’s head began to throb painfully.“You’re saying he returned without going off somewhere and dying?”“Yes. Apparently he’s making a Statue of Lugh now.”“Ugh…making another sculpture!”Styrene shook his head. No matter how he thought of it, there was nothing as reckless as competing with a Sculptor in city development. But even if he were given a fortune, there was no other alternative. There were just no Sculptors as outstanding as Weed in the Versailles Continent; the whole area was impacted every time he made a sculpture. As a neighboring Lord, it was like hell for Styrene.“But there’s also a recent piece of news.”“What news?”“The Lord of Morata’s true identity is Wargod Weed.”“What?!”Wargod Weed!It was such a feared name that it sent shivers down their spines.Styrene was also a player who had grown up in the Continent of Magic. He had personally experienced the Continent of Magic Weed’s wicked charisma. He killed, stole, and was absolutely ruthless. Like looking at a mountain that could not be climbed, Wargod Weed had filled him with despair.“Are you saying he’s really Wargod Weed?”“We can’t be certain, but they say that possibility is sufficient.”“Did he say it himself?”“Apparently so.”“…”“Several news channels on broadcast are saying there’s an almost 100% possibility that Wargod Weed is Morata’s Lord.”Styrene was silent for a while.Wargod Weed’s nature was extremely brutal, and he didn’t condone those who challenged him. He was a figure who would be furious even after razing everything to the ground by the simple fact that there was a territory in Morata’s vicinity.Styrene had fled the rough wolves in the central continent, but he ended up next to a tiger’s den.He was about to recall nightmares from the Continent of Magic. However, his guild member said something that was somewhat comforting.“A rumor isn’t always true. And there are also many opposing opinions.”“What are they?”“First of all, he does have quite a few connections to Wargod Weed, like the evidence of the Ice Dragon and his relationship with the Freya Church. However, it’s not certain whether it’s actually him or not.”“Then…”“Even if he’s really Wargod Weed, there’s not much he can do. Could he dare to challenge our guild alone?”They were the welcome words Styrene had been waiting for.“Right. There’s nothing to fear even if he’s Wargod Weed. And if his profession is really Sculptor, then we could even see it as a blessing and a stroke of luck, right?”“There’s a chance for us.”Styrene harbored grand ambitions concerning Morata. He would develop Trivan Village, draft soldiers, and seize Morata by force with his guild members! Styrene Guild had over 600 high-level players settled in the North altogether. If they acquired mercenaries from the central continent, they could field an army of about 2,000.
They were planning to take everything Morata had.
“Even if it’s Weed… this time, it won’t go as he pleases. His record from the Continent of Magic will end here. And if he isn’t Wargod Weed, then it’ll really be over for him.”
“That’s right, guild master!”
“Then hurry and go to Morata to lure in some residents so we can enact the plan.”
“…”

Weed developed his Tailoring and Sculpting skills as he immersed himself in making dolls.
“Dolls can also be called a field of expertise, after all.”
He could earn a lot of proficiency or Fame if a work he made for the first time exceeded a certain level. However, he accumulated professional experience after making several of them, so the effect on his skill level or proficiency grew as well.
It was like how it was awkward for a Swordsman to use magic, and how Blacksmiths couldn’t make tons of different kinds of weapons. Of course, a Sculptor was the profession at the very peak of hybrid characters that could combine all of those.
“A doll of a child…”
Weed tasted failure dozens of times. He couldn’t make a perfect magnum opus, a work that looked like it was carved from the light of the heavens. He could only dream of it because he knew his own humble skills well. However, it wouldn’t do if there was an aspect that he found lacking.
“A young little girl. A doll of a lovable, bright, and peaceful child.”
Weed tore at his hair. The King Hydra and Imoogi leather that had been stacked like a mountain was shrinking. If bronze or iron had been used as materials, then he could melt them down again and reuse them, but for the most part, he couldn’t recycle the leather materials and had to discard them.
“It’s hard enough making a child that’s flawlessly bright, but darkness follows brightness.”
In the eyes of the parents who couldn’t have the child, such brightness would be pain that would chip away at their hearts. Even so, their sadness would be infinitely greater if he made a child that was shrieking as it cried.
“Magnum opus. I need to create a magnum opus…”
Weed fell into confusion. His worries on what kind of work he should to make were growing even more severe.
“Should I guess how Seo-yoon looked when she was young and make that?”
Escaping from reality!
He thought it’d be easy to sculpt Hwaryeong or Irene in their youths. However, Weed soon saw the error of his ways and shook his head.
“The player named Mandol believed in me and entrusted this to me. I can’t just do a rough job.”
It seemed like doing the quest would be way easier than agonizing over something that was so difficult to resolve.
