Chapter 397
I’m feeling really good right now.
It’s great that I’ve discovered a hidden class, but of all things, it’s Guan Yu!
It’s as if The Six have arranged this hidden opportunity just for me.
Well, probably not, but I’ve heard that many other hidden classes also feature historical figures, so it isn’t surprising that Guan Yu could be among them.
Anyway, my gaze was fixed on the Blue Dragon Crescent Blade in Guan Yu’s statue.
Honestly, my mouth is just watering.
“Now, how do I interact with this?”
Now that I’ve found the hidden class, something’s got to change….
I quietly approached the statue.
– Oh dear, oh dear!
– The statue quality is insane!
As I got closer, the statue appeared even larger.
How in the world was this made?
It looks like it’s made from blocks but carved to resemble a statue.
Whoever carved this is truly impressive.
Just as I was admiring it, suddenly—
Grrr—
The cave started to shake.
“Uh, uh? It’s not going to collapse, right?”
– What is happening??
– Oh no!
– I don’t even know if this is Minecraft anymore.
“Isn’t this because of all the funding put into it?”
Experiencing the shaking of the cave while playing Minecraft made me realize again that there’s nothing money can’t do in this world.
With enough money, you can even change the game.
So there I was, captivated by the corporate power, watching the unmoving Guan Yu statue amidst the trembling cave when suddenly—
[Have you come— descendant?]
Amazingly, I heard a voice coming from the statue.
“Oh!”
– Whoa, listen to that voice, lol.
– Did they hire a voice actor?
– This is really epic!
Guan Yu’s voice was majestic and deep, truly dignified, as if a professional voice actor had portrayed him.
“Ah, a descendant from the far future has come to find you.”
– Huh? Descendant?
– Are you from the Guan family?
– Lol, what is this?
– You’re the Kim family!
– You’re a pro-China faction then!
“Hey, understand the mood here.”
Indeed, if I nitpicked every detail, it would never end.
Besides, the fact that Guan Yu is speaking Korean is a flaw in itself.
He should be using ancient Chinese, for goodness’ sake.
– Is that the setting?
– So you’re diving deep into the lore, huh?
– When did you start whining?
Anyway, I continued to listen as Guan Yu’s statue spoke.
[…Thus, I will give you a trial. First, in this vicinity….]
After a long explanation, it seems he was about to give me a quest.
“Uh, ancestor… I just came back from fighting monsters, and now you want me to hunt more….”
– For real…
– That’s a bit much…
– Guan Yu’s just a grandparent now, huh? Lol.
I wasn’t thrilled about the idea of hunting more monsters after I had just done so, but… what can I do? If he says to do it, I guess I’ll have to.
I accepted the quest and left the shrine.
“Phew….”
Outside, it was already morning.
So… I had to wait until nightfall.
– Lol, let’s go fishing again?
– Let’s hit up some wild fishing~
“Yeah… let’s wait by fishing.”
With a deep sigh, I took out my fishing rod and headed toward the nearby corridor.
**
About an hour later.
“I’ve caught everything!”
I strolled back into the shrine with poise.
Fortunately, the quest only required me to catch monsters, so I would finish it quickly.
[You’ve successfully completed the trial, descendant….]
After completing the quest, Guan Yu welcomed me back.
Seeing him again, I couldn’t help but admire the craftsmanship of the statue. I wonder if it can be brought to the village?
Placing it at the central fountain would look magnificent.
[Then now….]
Anyway, what Guan Yu said next was….
[This time, you must ascend that mountain….]
A second quest—great.
“Ah, Guan Yu!”
– Lol, seriously?
– A second quest now, really?
– Come on, throw me a bone!
Isn’t finding the location and completing the first quest enough? Why a second one?
What a stingy little guy….
If it were Zhang Fei, he would have handed over the hidden class immediately.
Still, since Guan Yu asked me to, I reluctantly accepted the quest again, headed up the nearby mountain, and fought the monsters.
“If you give me another quest this time, I’m seriously going to shave off your beard.”
– For real!
– Why do you have to give me two quests?
If he offered yet another quest, I was prepared to smash the statue to bits before returning to Guan Yu.
[Now I will grant you my strength.]
Fortunately, this seemed to be the end of the quest line, Guan Yu said.
Phew, is it finally time for the class change?
From starting pet summoning to taking up a significant amount of time, it seemed like it was high time for results. I felt excited as I waited for Guan Yu to finish speaking.
Then—
[(Miro) has acquired the hidden job (Military God).]
A huge message appeared on the server, and an item popped into my inventory.
“Oh!”
[Blue Dragon Crescent Blade] [Red Hare]
Two items symbolizing Guan Yu.
– Whoa, lol.
– The true Red Hare!
– Finally got it!
First, I grabbed the Blue Dragon Crescent Blade.
“Wow….”
This is on a whole different level from the basic Minecraft sword.
When I swung it lightly, it sliced through the air effortlessly, the motion smooth and stylish.
– That has to have skills!
– Try right-clicking or shift right-clicking with that weapon!
“Oh, it has skills?”
I pressed various keys, following the viewer’s advice as if I had come from seeing another streamer’s hidden class.
Suddenly—
Whoosh—! Bang!
To my amazement, the skill activated.
“Whoa!”
Is this Guan Yu?
This is insane!
I heard hidden classes could also be enhanced by collecting materials… doesn’t that mean I could eventually go toe-to-toe with a whale?
Fighting a whale as Guan Yu in the sea!
Just thinking about it gets my heart racing.
More importantly, I pulled out the Red Hare that I received as an item.
Hmm….
Now, when I right-click, it’ll get registered as a pet.
Then I’ll ride around on the impressive and cool Red Hare.
But….
“The Red Hare is a bit much.”
– ???
– What’s wrong with it?
– Can’t you just use it and go?
“No, my Red Hare is special to me.”
As I said that, I summoned the Red Hare (true).
Out came a short little horse with fluttering red mane.
– ???
– Just get rid of that, lol.
– Wasn’t that just the temporary Red Hare?
“Hah, but it’s a companion that has crossed life and death with me….”
Doesn’t it know that horses have been humans’ friends since ancient times?
If it weren’t for my Hare, I wouldn’t even have made it this far or gotten my class change.
[Thank you, 1,000 won donation!]
Miro, that was Lu Bu’s Red Hare, right? Now you’re Guan Yu, though, aren’t you?
“That’s true.”
Even though it’s the same horse, its value changes with its owner.
I could argue that the stingy Lu Bu’s vibes and its appearance would have shrunk due to me, and I could accept the switch, but….
“But if I can’t even keep this small bond, how can I call myself a descendant of Guan Yu?”
So while I registered the Guan Yu Red Hare, I still rode my cute Hare.
“This one is my true Red Hare.”
– For real, that’s a legend right there.
– Haha, great.
– The big deal!
– This guy is basically Guan Yu now, huh?
And my Hare is known for its stamina and toughness, despite its appearance.
Didn’t Genghis Khan’s cavalry ride horses like this to dominate the world?
Having ridden my horse, I wrote down my return scroll, ready to head back when suddenly….
“Um, uh.”
I dismounted for a moment and released my adorable Hare.
– ???
– You got something else to do?
“No, it’s not that… I just wanted to check how the Red Hare I received looks like before I go.”
Saying that, I summoned the real Red Hare from Guan Yu’s class change.
Since I registered it, shouldn’t I at least take a look at it?
Anyway, the summoned Red Hare was….
“Wow.”
– Oh, lol.
– Looks insane!
– It’s so cool!
…Honestly, it was very impressive.
It looked perhaps twice the size of the original Red Hare.
Its mane glittered like a flame.
Its face was terrifying, like a demon from hell, and its muscular legs danced with flames.
This was a truly romanticized version of the legendary Red Hare.
Captured by such a stunning sight, I climbed onto the horse.
Once mounted, my viewpoint skyrocketed.
Slightly moving forward, I could feel its speed was incredible.
“…Shall I give it a test ride?”
– Let’s go, let’s go!
– If it’s not a fake Hare, that’s epic!
– Whoa, it’s even cooler than I imagined!
So, I decided to take the mighty Red Hare for a test drive in the wild.
The speed and jumping ability felt almost like flying… or?
Wait, it can really fly?!
“Whoa, this Red Hare can actually fly?!”
– ????!
– Whoa!
– What is this? Is it a flying mount?
The horse is leaping through the air!
Is this insane?!
I promptly used my return scroll while mounted on this magnificent creature.
I must show this off!
As I arrived at the central village.
True to its name, I saw several people gathering.
[What’s happening?]
[Who is that?]
[Wow, what horse is that?]
[Whoa….]
Even though it was the first meeting, people were enchanted by my Red Hare.
Enjoying the attention, I galloped around the village with glee.
My first stop was Anna’s Farm.
Now that I’ve returned in splendor, I wanted to find Anna, who supported me at the beginning.
“Anna!”
[Miro, you found a hidden class… huh?! What’s that?!]
“Oh, this? It’s nothing special. It’s just my Hare.”
– Lol.
– What even?
– Since when has it become our Hare? Lol.
– We have our own Hare, after all….
[Wow… it’s so cool.]
“Right? Ah~ They gave it to me when I changed classes.”
As I said this, I subtly demonstrated it flying through the sky, causing Anna to drop her jaw.
[Does it fly too?]
“Oh, apparently it does? My Hare is so fast, it seems to be flying~”
[Whoa, I’m envious! How did you get it?]
“Just luck, really.”
After bragging to Anna for quite a while, I set off to find the Heavenly Realm hunters.
They’re likely in the Official Hunting Ground right now.
I dashed quickly toward the hunting ground, spotting the hunters on the hunt below.
I headed straight down there to show off.
[Huh??]
[What is that??]
It turned out to be Loa and Maho.
These hunters, part of our whale-hunting crew, were currently engaged in a battle with their prey.
“Oops!”
Seeing the hunters startled by the sudden appearance of the Hare, I triggered my skill.
The Blue Dragon Crescent Blade glowed a bluish hue, creating an impact right before my eyes.
Boom—!
One hit, one kill on the monster.
As expected of the Blue Dragon Crescent Blade, it takes down monsters instantly….
[Hey, don’t steal my kill!]
Oh, was that the final blow?
Uh… Sorry about that.
“Oops, I couldn’t control my strength there. You know I’m a Military God now.”
[You realize Guan Yu would die to a bullet too, right?]
Guan Yu would die from a bullet?
“Guan Yu doesn’t die!”
Who would dare aim a tiny gun at a Military God?
I felt sorry but also adamant about it….
Bang—!!
“Ow!”
[How is it?]
The moment Loa’s bullet grazed me, my health plummeted, and I quickly fled from the hunting ground.
– ????
– Lol.
– What’s this guy doing? Haha.
“I guess I need to upgrade my armor….”
Ow, that was surprisingly painful.
But I’m okay.
I’m the dealer, after all.
Guan Yu was known for his offense, but was he any good at defense?
He was the general who charged out of the city to behead enemies.
In Xinyang, that was the case… well, anyway.
For now, I soared through the air, scouting for the next bragging spot.
“More importantly, this Red Hare is truly amazing.”
Now I see why flying mounts are referred to as nobility in this game.
As I sprinted away from the hunting ground, the previous spot was only a tiny dot on the horizon.
“This is the best, Hare.”
[Thank you for the 1,000 won donation!]
Miro, have you forgotten about our Hare?
“Huh? I’m riding it right now, aren’t I?”
– Lmao.
– You really did forget, huh? Haha.
– So, can that guy actually fly? Lol.
“Okay, where shall we go next?”
And so that day, I rode around the village three times, boasting about my Red Hare.
