Chapter 154: Mass Production
“Ah, right. [Protection of the Myths], forgot about that thing.” After reading through the notifications he received after sessfully fabricating an equipment set of the Mythic level, he could not help but mutter as a memory surfaced in his mind regarding the notification of the effect.
In this memory of his, he was ying Infinite Stick Evolution, his character being that of someone at the Animate existence level. He was a decently strong yer, having quite a good set of Epic level equipment, as well as skills that would easily mow down tens to hundreds of Animates that were of a lower ss rank.
With that get-up, he epted a quest that needed him to y 10,000 goblins in order for him to win the favor of the mayor of the town that he was settled in. It only took him quite a while to get to the location where the goblins were, but even though the quest said that 10,000 goblins were enough to win the favor of the town’s mayor, he knew that by killing higher rarities of monsters, he would be able to win more favor from the mayor, possibly even allowing him to inherit the position of the town’s mayor.
And so, with that in mind, he decided to kill 10,000 goblin archmages, which he killed by spending quite a bit of effort in each kill, even though he was wearing a full set of Epic equipment. Just as he was about to reach a total of 100 goblin archmages killed, another yer appeared in the area where the goblins spawned, their rank significantly higher than Aurus’ rank. Not only that, from the armor the yer was wearing, Aurus instantly deduced that the yer’s equipment was that of the Mythic level.
With his interest piqued by the Mythic level equipment, he decided to get closer to the yer while maintaining a set distance between the two, continuing to kill goblin archmages while the yer was doing their own thing. At the instant he finally got close enough to see what the other yer was doing, he could not help but have his eyes widen at the fact that the yer was killing a goblin multiple ranks higher than what he was killing…without even being damaged!
At this point, Aurus could not help but shout, alerting the yer of his presence, which prompted Aurus to apologize and help the yer with his stuff while the yer helped with his stuff after that. After all of that, the yer then told Aurus as to how he was able to tank those hits without being damaged, even though the rank of the goblin he was fighting was multiple levels higher than him.
In short, the yer told him about the [Protection of the Myths], as well as the skills within the same family. Surprisingly, the yer told Aurus that [Protection of the Myths] was the lowest level of the skill, with 10 more levels after that.
“System, open up the information regarding the newly crafted equipment set,” Aurus let out a sigh after reminiscing through that memory,manding the system not long after.

Looking over the stats that he had obtained from crafting a Mythic level equipment, he could not help but radiate a more intense aura of happiness surrounding him as he was incredibly happy that he now had the ability to craft the highest rarity of equipment possible for the current grade of his skill.
Closing the screen of information that appeared in front of his field of vision, he then went through the n of fabricating a lot of equipment sets for the alliance members once more. This time though, he took into consideration the fact that he was going to evolve the skill sooner orter, which meant that a new grade of equipment would definitely be unlocked. In the end, his decision was set to crafting Mythic level equipment for the Pir level members, and Legendary level equipment for the Executive level and normal members.
As for Herellia, he decided that, as the leader of the alliance, it wouldn’t be right for her to wear the same equipment as the Pir level members. With that in mind, he was going to craft the same grade of equipment he was going to craft for himself for Herellia after leveling the skill to the next few grades. In other words, he and Herellia would be wearing a whole new level of equipment, Transcendent level equipment!
Composing his mind whileying his n out at the same time, it took a couple of minutes for Aurus to condition himself before doing what seems to be the monotonous doing he has done in his current life…other than the massive grind he did for his skills.
Ding!
With the equipment fabrication screen now open, he was now going to begin his n of mass fabricating equipment sets for the alliance members. But just as he was about to truly start doing so, a thought popped in his mind as he said, “Ah, almost forgot.”
“Evolve [Supreme Spirit-Flux Chiliocosm],” hemanded the system in his mind, with a prompt appearing not long after, telling him that the skill was sessfully evolved to the next grade. Not only that, he also checked the amount of FP he could hold at the moment, which had a decent increase thanks to the evolution.
“Alright, with that taken care of, let’s start mass production!” he said to himself to psych himself up. Unfortunately, even though he psyched himself up, his mind could not maintain extreme focus on the matter of hand, deciding to go on a tangent for a bit as another thought that was quite important surfaced in his mind.
“Haaa…” Aurus could not help but sigh, although he was somewhat grateful on the inside that his mind went off on a tangent before he got too engrossed in the production of equipment sets. “Yeah, it would definitely suck if I crafted more equipment sets than the amount of members we have at the alliance.”
With that in mind, he disappeared from the room without a trace, heading towards where Herellia was. Thankfully, Herellia did not move an inch from when they met a while ago, allowing him to easily find Herellia to ask her about some stuff.
Then again, it took a while for Herellia to notice Aurus, who was in front of her for quite a while. At the moment she did, she hastilyposed herself as she was slightly shocked by his appearance, imitating the clearing of a throat as she asked him, “Aurus, what are you doing here?”
“I needed your help on something,” Aurus replied in a concise manner. “It has something to do with the trump card I’m currently making.”
Hearing the phrase ‘trump card’ being said, it seemed as though Herellia was greatly woken up, her mind on full alert as she responded with, “If that’s the case, as long as I can do it, I’ll make sure to do it to the best of my abilities. So, what do you need my help with?”
“Err…” Aurus hemmed and hawed for a bit as he thought up of the best way to go about his request. Eventually, he decided that being straightforward was better, telling her, “I need information on all of the members in this alliance, as well as their strengths and weaknesses.”
“Eh? This is too sudden…” Herellia responded in a slightly flustered manner…only for the aura around her to be slightly murderous as she asked Aurus, “Who are you…and what did you do to Aurus?”
“Oi,” Aurus replied back. “I’m still me. I’m not someone who would rat the alliance out, you know. Then again, this request does seem suspicious now that I think about it. You can go ahead and use your skill to see if I’m telling the truth or not.”
Seeing that Aurus was being calm with how she acted, she could not help but think if she thought wrongly, deciding to follow Aurus’ words and use her skill that could see through all lies and facades, getting to the truth. After obtaining a notification that he was telling her the truth, as well as the fact that he was not ratting the alliance out, Herellia could not help but let out a sigh as she responded in a slightly apologetic manner, “You understand why I did this, right?”
“I definitely do,” he answered back in a slightly happy tone. “I take no offense to it, you’re the leader of the alliance after all.”
Hearing Aurus’ words, Herellia reced the serious aura around her with a slightly cheerful one as she then asked him, “Anyways, why do you need me to obtain that information? You have ess to the alliance system, which allows you to see information regarding each and every member of the alliance.”
“Yeah, that is true,” Aurus responded back, then added, “But it would be better if the information came from you. I’m definitely sure you’ve interacted with most of the members of the alliance, which means that your information regarding the members would be more detailed than the one I could get through my own means. If it gives you any assurance, this information has something to do with the thing I’m going to show you in a day or a day and a half from now.”
Fortunately, in the end, Herellia gave Aurus the information regarding all of the members of the alliance, including her, which made Aurus feel intense gratitude for Herellia. He then said that this information would allow him to craft a greater trump card for her, which made her slightly expectant as to what that trump card might be.
And so, with the information of each and every member now in his mind, he then disappeared from Herellia’s sight, heading back to the room in the Tower of Seclusion where Fenrir and Charisa were, opening up his equipment fabrication skill once again, armed with the number of equipment sets he had to make, as well as the specifications for each equipment set regarding the member that was going to wear it.
Taking a deep breath through his body, he then muttered as he went over the n one more time, “There are exactly 473 members in this alliance, excluding Herellia. 22 of those members are Pir level members, including me, with 137 being Executive level members, while the remaining 314 members of the alliance are normal members. Including Herellia, I would have to craft two sets of Transcendent level equipment, 23 sets of Mythic level equipment, and 451 sets of Legendary level equipment.”
He then looked at the equipment fabrication screen in front of him before shouting to himself, “It’s time to finish this hell!”
