While Lee Sung-han was enjoying the weekend, a new forum topic on caused an uproar.
The thread can only be essed by yers in .
The forum of the website is usually used to share knowledge about quests and monsters. It''s a ce full of threads asking for advice.
On the forum topic, where many people choose to remain anonymous, a new topic was posted.
[Titled: New findings I am quite baffled of.
Author: Jun
There''s no one who isn''t aware of the new sub-quest of "Finding Ian."
Recently I have been in search of new clues and I happened to get a book this time.
It was a book about Edward Alvaro, the current emperor.
The current emperor was crowned Emperor, about 25 years ago, at the age of 28.
What''s surprising was the war thatsted almost 10 years before then.
I know reading about history story is boring, so I''ll summarize it and get straight to the point.
In the book that I read, there was someone who could be considered the hero.
He''s amoner, and he''s from Veraford.
The current emperor appointed him as a knight and helped him participate in the war, as you know,moner aren''t allowed to participate.
Did you get what I am pointing at?
That''s right. It''s him! Thatmoner is Sir Ian.
It is said that he still uses the name Ian without hisst name.
The current emperor tried to grant him the position of Count and give him a estate, but he refused and returned to his hometown of Veraford.
Of course, everyone seems to treat him as a temporary aristocrat.
Anyway, he''s not only a hero to La Elta but also to the people of Veraford.
Unlike now, Veraford before was an abandoned ce where the monster might break out at anytime, however, Sir Ian almost annihted the monster and now Veraford is safe.
ording to a viger I talked to, Sir Ian has left Veraford in order to subjugate monsters.
He also said that thergest mansion in Veraford is the property of Sir Ian.
I went to see him first, but the butler said that he isn''t currently there.
All right, everybody,plete your quests~]
Comment:
Is the info reliable?
No, no. I think this is real. It''s written by Jun. His title is Reading King, so this information should be quite urate.
-Thank you.
-Thank you for the information. Let''s try toplete the quest.
[Titled: I recently read this novel
Author: Anonymous
Has anyone read the novel "50 Years in La Elta"?
I don''t think many have read it so far.
This is the link.
I knew that I heard the name Ian somewhere, and when I came back to read some novel I stumbled on this while searching on my reading list.
The protagonist is named Ian, his hometown is Veraford and he is amoner knight
The novel is all about wars and fighting monsters.
There''s a part about refusing to being the count anding back to Veraford to live in his mansion.
Did you know when this novel was written?
3 years ago]
Comment:
-When I read how the author write, I immediately drop it.
-The author must have picked up a history book and copied it from somewhere.
-So did a yer wrote this?
-Hey, but isn''t everything written here true?
-No way, only basics information are true, and the rest is fiction.
-I used to read this novel. Just the first episode. I asked about Ian''s habits in the first episode, but the author didn''t answer
.
Several simr posts were posted and the forum topic was noisy for a while.
Most people say that the yer happens to have some good information and wrote the story.
However, two dayster, a new post was posted.

First, I''ll certify you as a member of the Transcendental Guild.
(Personal ID hidden)
See?
If you don''t believe me, I''ll take a firste, I''ll post more proofs.
I read the trending novel yesterday.
In the 23rd episode, Ian''s sword smith was in Veraford, so I''ve been there.
You know the cksmith''s on the left-hand side of the quest board?
I asked him about this cksmith from the the novel, and he said it was his father.
He''s lying on bed, and I barely met him after 10 sub-quest that his son gave me.
When I asked if Ian''s sword was made by him, he was so surprised because he was the only one who knew about it.
Now, the question is How did the author came to know it?
The name of the sword in the novel is correct, and the ingredients are correct.
I don''t think this is an ordinary novel.
We''re looking for the author in our guild, too.]
Comment:
-Howe you are from Transcendental Guild if each of their rookies has set dates to enter La Elta?
-I could go immediately because the dates ovep. If you don''t believe me, here is a photo of my sched. (Picture)
Anonymous, please shot yourself on your forehead and prove it!
Are you out of your mind?
Next to your ID, take a picture of yourself with a V and write today''s date.
Here you go. (Photo and date while face is hidden behind a bear emoji)
Wow, then this is certified from Transcendental Guild.
If this is true, shouldn''t we start with that novel as a clue?
I can''t believe you''re a Transcendental Guild member.

The only people who knew about the sword were the cksmith and Sir Ian, and if the cksmith had never spoken about it to anyone else, it would have been Sir Ian.
That means that the writer knows Sir Ian.
The possibilities are as follows:
1. It''s Ranker.
He may be an unofficial ranker or a top ranker who secretly dreamed of bing a novelist. Sir Ian, seem most likely to have met with him and heard this from him. He wrote a novel based on that, and sadly, sadly, no one wanted to read it.
However, considering that novel was written 3 years ago, it doesn''t make sense that even if he were an early awakening yer, he became close enough to meet Sir Ian in person to listen to his personal history.
I don''t think this os possible even if it is the great Lee Sung-hyun.
2. Skill Capability
You know, there''s a prophecy skill. Maybe not the future, it''s the past. It''s a little different
He kept dreaming Sir Ian''s past, and he tried writing it as a novel because he my think he got some novel inspiration, and not exactly a skill.
Maybe he didn''t now he''s capable of that. Sometimes hidden skills are not registered in the status window. Something that requires certain conditions to be achieved or something like that.
3. It''s a regressor.
This sub-quest and other rted future yers.
That''s why he knew all the details.
He got back in time and gave us a hint.
He may want us to met Sir Ian and finally finished this La Elta
4. Sir Ian has moved dimensionally.
Sir Ian moved to Earth or was reborn in Earth.
Why is such a great person so bad at writing? He only held a sword in his life, so he had never held a pen.
Comment:
-What''s number three and four? Stop reading novels.
-Has anyone been reading memories or talking nonsensetely? I really doubt that the one who wrote that is Sir Ian. LOL
-There''s a possibility of number two, but Hidden Skill. Isn''t that a rumor?
-Just a rumor. It''s a piece of crap that came from a kid in America whining to the state that he had a hidden skill and that the way to unlock it was to spend 100 million dors.
