[Talent for Plunder, Seo Ju-Heon (~22 y/o)]

[Number of artifacts in possession: 50]

Pandora members who saw that were astonished. His talent for plunder was one thing, but the number of artifacts in possession!

“My goodness, 50?!”

“Furthermore, please look at the detailed data. That number is the amount he has on him.”

This was an unbelievable amount.

It wasn't as if Pandora had been sitting around sucking their thumbs all this time; they had quickly started to move from the moments artifacts first appeared.

Chairman Kwon who had 21 artifacts was proof of one of the people who had started to move early on. Furthermore, Chairman Kwon only moved in cooperation with Pandora, which meant that he had not collected all 21 on his own.

However!

“50 artifacts alone?”

“Who the f*ck is this bastard?!”

The Pandora members were shocked. The detailed data didn't show anything that said Ju-Heon was a talented excavator no matter how many times they looked.

“That is why this data makes no sense!”

“We need to deploy thousands of Pandora soldiers to maybe come back with ten of them.”

“Did he maybe form an excavation team with the Holtens?”

“Are you joking? Excavation teams have a few hundred people at minimum. General Keira would have crushed them if she noticed such a large movement!”

“Ah, if his talent is in plunder, maybe he stole them from others......”

That made Pandora’s members sulk even more. They were afraid that they might end up getting their artifacts stolen.

“A, anyway, please keep the information about the seven tombs a secret from the press. We cannot allow anybody else to take them.”

“Pandora and its partner nations must take them all.”

“We can’t let the others on this list find out, but...... We must absolutely make sure this Seo Ju-Heon doesn’t get any information about it at all.”

They nodded their heads.

However, their cautious actions would end up being useless.

Why?

[There are sudden tombs that have appeared throughout the world. Thankfully, they are small tombs but a total of 1,690 tombs have appeared......]

“What the hell? That’s the precursor to the 7 Great Tombs.”

It was because the person they were worried about had already realized what was going on. Ju-Heon looked at the map that popped up on the news and started to squint.

‘Is it time for those things to slowly pop up?’

However, Irene tilted her head in confusion at Ju-Heon who was smiling while watching the news.

“Mr. Ju-Heon?”

They were currently in the New York penthouse. She was currently being taught by Ju-Heon.

Yoo Jaeha who was also getting taught about artifact usage with Irene asked a question.

“What do you mean by 7 Great Tombs?

Captain-nim, is something weird coming out again?”

Ju-Heon pointed to the map on the news instead of responding. The locations of the tombs were visible on there and they were connected like a round ring.

“That’s called the Ring of Tomb.”

“Ring of Tomb?”

It seemed to be similar to how they called the earthquake region in the west the Ring of Fire. And the large tombs would appear in the locations within the ring that had the strongest aura.

There would end up being a total of seven of these tombs.

That was one of the reasons they were called the 7 Great Tombs, but the artifacts inside played a role as well.

It was because the 7 Great Tombs had characteristics of the Bible’s Seven Deadly Sins (Avarice, Pride, Envy, Wrath, Sloth, Gluttony, Lust).

“Basically, seven large tombs will appear in the future. Each of them will have an artifact corresponding to a deadly sin. The order is random. But based on the type, they can be extremely precious tombs that could change the world.”

Most of the people who conquered those tombs ended up solidifying their positions as majesties. That was the strength of these artifacts.

‘Well, they originally showed up a few years later.’

The events of the future were being pulled forward a couple years in advance. Maybe it was the risk for his return. It was as if it was slowly tightening its grasp on him.

But Ju-Heon just found it ridiculous.

He might need to rush the preparations, but it was more advantageous for him if the future events occurred earlier.

Why?

‘It’s obvious there are less competitors now than in a few years.’

It was as if it was trying to help him.

Furthermore, the 7 Great Tombs were special to Ju-Heon. One of these tombs was where the past Ju-Heon earned the Archaeologist's Artifact and became an < Excavator >.

‘I remember it was the Tomb of Avarice.’

It had been greed for historical knowledge.

That was the reasoning behind how that possession-type artifact came to be.

However, Ju-Heon got a headache thinking about the past.

There was a simple reason for it.

‘Everything was great about that artifact except the retarded risk.’

That Archaeologist's Artifact's risk was related to written text addiction, viewing addiction, knowledge gathering addiction, basically, it made him addicted to re

‘Alright, respond. Avesta. It’ll be easier to take on the 7 Great Tombs if I can activate you.’

The Toombglyphs that were the symbol of a contract appeared once he channeled his Dominance.

These texts would end up somewhere on his body. However, the text quickly disappeared.

“!”

That wasn’t the only reaction. The Avesta went back to sleep as if it never started to shine in the first place.

‘This dog-like bastard.’

What was going on? The fact that it started the contract process must mean that his Dominance wasn’t low. Then why?

A message popped up at that moment.

[You do not meet the requirements to use the corresponding artifact.]

[Evangelism-type artifacts require the user’s fame of popularity as a base.]

[You need at least ten people who have fallen for you.]

“......”

Ju-Heon clicked his tongue. Now that he thought about it, possession-type artifacts were picky about their masters.

‘I guess there really is a condition.’

Every artifact was different, but they required things like high virtue, talented artistic abilities, good math skills or things like that.

It wanted someone with the qualifications to use it.

‘The Code of Hammurabi was easy to contract though.’

But that was because the ‘Eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth’ concept...

Fit Ju-Heon's personality very well.

Anyway, Ju-Heon now understood why Rockefeller was a writer, musician, and actor.

That was the minimum requirement to use the Monarch of Evangelism's artifact. The user could probably use more of its abilities based on their popularity and number of people worshiping them.

It was killing two birds with one stone since getting to use the Avesta meant that he could raise the ranks of his artifacts and get new abilities.

‘But ten people...ten people...’

Who could he turn into his fans?

He wasn’t a celebrity so how could he suddenly make ten people fall for him?

He looked at Irene, Yoo Jaeha, and the Oh Seung Woo group in front of him.

That was five people to start.

‘I can't think of a way to get Irene to fall for me.’

He had never seen such a type of person before.

As for the men......?

Wasn’t it more difficult to get other men to become his fan?

However, he gasped after looking at Yoo Jaeha.

Now that he thought about it, he was Rockefeller's fan to the point that he fell for the hypnosis as well.

‘He said he read that novel called < Clandestine Housekeeper >......’

It seemed to be a 19+ erotic novel.

Ju-Heon started to laugh.

‘Then I can just write one too.’

Ju-Heon opened the word window on his laptop and started to write.

As for the results of his spirited endeavor......
