I Got a Gallery in the Wild - Chapter 366

"Whaaaaa... Whaa...."

"There, there. It hurt a lot, didn’t it? It’s okay now."

I gently comforted Wonmo, who had been stung by the bee. Wonmo burst into tears, buried in my arms.

Wonmo’s impulsive behavior was somewhat predictable. He had always been crazy about wanting to eat honey.

Normally, control was possible through consistent training, but the beehive was a different case.

’The kid is sweet, but sometimes he gets greedy.’

He was like a Golden Retriever succumbing to greed once in a while.

He was highly intelligent, but felt like he strayed in odd moments.

Stroking sniffling Wonmo, I gently looked at his face.

I could see Wonmo’s face swollen plump on one side from the bee sting.

"...Pfft!"

"Ggyu?"

"No, no. Our Wonmo is cute."

When Wonmo tilted his head, I hugged him again.

Wonmo also felt better and tried to nuzzle in, but showed signs of pain.

Leaving it like this wasn’t good, so healing it with an Elixir seemed best.

’Elixir for animals is really convenient.’

Using the Elixir given by Starlight Lady, I restored Wonmo’s swollen face back to normal.

When his face no longer hurt, Wonmo tapped it with his front paws.

"Don’t target beehives from now on. Got it? Or you’ll get hurt even worse."

"Ggyu!"

Wonmo smiled brightly and rubbed his face against me. Moments like this made me feel at peace.

"Squeak!"

Seeing this, Tyranno crept up to me as if jealous. Well, our Tyranno was cute too.

Cheongseol... I didn’t know when she got here, but she was perched on my shoulder, licking my cheek.

After playing with the little ones for a bit, I logged into the Gallery.

Wonmo got stung by a bee and his face swelled up plump LOL

It was cute and funny at the same time, I had a hard time holding back my laughter LOL

└ Heavenly Demon) His aggrieved expression stirs up protective instincts. Comfort him well.

└ Sword Matstar) Wonmo is cute even when stung by a bee. Humans turn ugly when their face swells up.

└ Are you talking about yourself?

└ Sword Matstar) I told you I’m pretty --

└ Prove it then LOL

└ What happens if you can’t prove it?

└ What if she really is pretty though?

└ What do you mean what. Either way, the standard of beauty is whether you’re close to an elf or below.

└ Even elves turn ugly when stung by bees LOL

└ Let’s Grow Trees) Being stung by a bee of that size, he’s doing great to be at that level! And it wasn’t a hornet either!

└ Wild Grylls) If it were a hornet, I would’ve killed it;;

└ If honeybees are that huge, how big are hornets? Are they really human-sized?

└ At that size, isn’t it a monster rather than an insect?

└ Reference: Grylls was once attacked by a rhinoceros beetle the size of a battering ram.

└ Starlight Lady) Grylls-nim, were you not stung?

└ Wild Grylls) No. It happened because Wonmo got greedy.

└ Starlight Lady) You should have been stung instead, Grylls-nim. What should we do with our poor Wonmo in pain?

└ Wild Grylls) Excuse me?

└ Grylls is in the wrong.

└ Yeah, honestly I think Grylls is at fault.

└ Our Gallery Master is in pain --

└ If you make our Gallery Master cry again from now on, I’ll take a dump.

└ Don’t you just want to take a dump?

└ Yeah, correct. Planning to dump soon.

└ Don’t Abandon the Hero) May I ban him in advance?!

└ LOL

└ LOL

└ LOL

Everyone showed a reaction of melting at Wonmo’s cuteness. Honestly, he was fatally cute.

If Wonmo hadn’t been here, it would’ve been hard to maintain mental peace.

One could ask if Tyranno or Cheongseol weren’t there, but with all due respect to them, they couldn’t match Wonmo’s cuteness.

It wasn’t just about appearance. The tubby body and fluffy fur added to it.

There was no companion as healing as him when hugging him to sleep.

’Will he grow up fully one day too?’

Wonmo’s size had grown quite a bit compared to when we first met.

When we first met, he was about the size of a medium dog, but now he was like a large dog.

Originally, an Owlbear’s growth was said to be rather slow, but the environment of the Forest of the Four Seasons bypassed that completely.This chapter is updated first at novelp⁠ing.com.

’I also grew slightly taller after coming here. Ah, is that because of Body Metamorphosis?’

At any rate, setting round-and-round Wonmo down for a moment, I went out to work.

Today’s task was crafting gauntlets. The dwarf had provided the molds for crafting.

But even with molds, I had to craft all of this myself.

’Gauntlets can’t be made with simple casting molds either.’

If they could be made with casting molds, I would’ve asked earlier.

But he said such high-level technology was directly managed by the state, and that he couldn’t do it himself.

Though disappointing, I decided to do it as a way to improve my blacksmithing skills at the same time.

"So, Lackey. Help me out."

"Master seems to think I am all-powerful."

"Not all-powerful, just a guy easy to boss around."

"Is there no labor union here?"

"Where on earth did you learn that word?"

"From a book."

I handed books to Lackey whenever he was bored. He must have learned it from them.

By the way, it was amazing that labor unions existed in this world too. I wondered if there were labor laws as well.

’Then again. It’s a place where technology developed unbalanceably.’

Even sports existed right there. Culture had developed uniquely.

Telling Lackey not to say useless things, I announced that we would start work right away.

Of course, since I needed help along the way, I didn’t forget to turn on the stream.

"Dwarf. You there?"

└ Passing Dwarf) Yep, here. Why call?

"I’m starting the work, so help me out."

└ Passing Dwarf) Hold on, grabbing liquor.

"Why are you bringing liquor, you crazy bastard?"

That damn booze, he never lets go of it until the end. I could only laugh hollowly.

Still, since I needed an expert’s advice, I decided not to scold him further.

Soon, the dwarf finished setting up (?) and left a comment.

└ Passing Dwarf) I’m here. But why can’t I see other comments?

"I set it so only you can post."

└ Passing Dwarf) This makes me kinda embarrassed, lol

"Cut the nonsense, what should I start with?"

└ Passing Dwarf) Nothing much. Either pour molten metal and let it harden, or make a separate sheet and stamp it out like cookies.

Easier said than done. From his perspective, he could say that because he could actually do it.

Pondering which method to adopt, I chose the former.

’It’ll be tough because of the weather, but I can craft it quickly.’

The molds the dwarf gave were practically casting molds.

Pour molten metal into it and wait for it to harden—that was it.

Hearing that he crafted all these in two days gave me a rough idea of the dwarf’s skill.

"Lackey. This is your weapon, so don’t be half-assed about it."

"Understood."

Lackey also worked diligently at the thought of crafting his own weapon.

Once the Mythricon was completely melted, we poured the molten metal into the mold.

The bubbling molten metal cooled rapidly and soon took shape.

"Let’s see... Huh? What? I had to make rivets too?"

└ Passing Dwarf) How else were you planning to adjust the joints? There’s a reason it’s expensive.

"Sigh... Lackey. You keep doing what you were doing. I’ll make the rivets first."

"Understood."

Although we encountered an unexpected situation, we somehow managed to proceed with everything.

What did Ludwig and Cain do? Ludwig crafted rivets alongside me.

Finally, Cain...

[My friend. Could we not rest a bit?]

"No. We have to maintain the fire until the end. And besides, why does someone who doesn’t even breathe need a break?"

[Doing simple labor makes me feel like I’m going crazy.]

"Be quiet before I toss you into the furnace."

[Tch.]

He simply moved coal so the fire wouldn’t go out. Simple labor suited that guy best.

A total of four individuals were mobilized to craft Lackey’s gauntlets.

However, since everyone lacked expertise, trial and error occurred along the way.

Of course, materials were abundant, so there was no problem. On top of that, we had the dwarf’s advice.

└ Passing Dwarf) LOL Absurd every time I see it. Does Mithril grow in your backyard or something?

"Right? Even better, this is judged to be alive."

Even if mined, by the next day, it regenerated like a planarian.

Consuming materials freely, I made progress bit by bit. Starting from the hardest part, the fingers, made the rest easy.

In particular, since Lackey’s fingers were short like a gorilla’s, the difficulty itself wasn’t too high.

’Even if made roughly, I can reinforce it bit by bit later.’

Shaping the gauntlets was the priority. If anything seemed off, I could slowly reinforce it later.

Soon, how much time had passed? Sweat poured down like rain.

Work was slowly approaching the final stretch, and fitting the palm piece was all that remained.

"Ughhhh... I feel like I’m gonna die...."Read the latest chapters at nоvelping.com.

"Take off your clothes... Ah. You don’t have clothes, right? Should I shave your fur?"

"Get away."

Clang! Clang!

Hammering away while exchanging jokes in between.

As time passed like that and well past lunchtime...

Clatter- Clatter-

"This much should be enough, right?"

We completed the Mythricon gauntlets of our dreams.

Though there were somewhat clumsy parts due to a lack of expertise, we could reinforce them over time.

Gloves made from dragon shed skin. And Mythricon gauntlets overlaid on top.

I could confidently assert these were the most expensive gauntlets in the world. Just the material cost alone was astronomical.

’Monetarily speaking, it’s like throwing an entire apartment building into it.’

Mind you, based on Seoul apartment standards. That’s how expensive it was.

I handed the gauntlets over to Lackey. Lackey slipped the gauntlet onto his left hand with sparkling eyes.

"How is it? Does it fit well?"

"Ohhhhh...."

Though he was a gorilla, was a warrior still a warrior? He looked eager to use them right away.

Watching him made me feel oddly proud. Still, a performance test was necessary.

I asked Lackey for a simple performance test. Lackey agreed.

"First, don’t use fire magic."

"Is that not allowed?"

"...If you want to use Flame Fist, shoot it toward the sky."

"Ohhhhh!"

Why did he love Flame Fist so much? I chuckled softly.

Immediately after, Lackey clenched his left fist tight, then thrust it toward the sky.

"FLAME FIST!!!"

KABOOM!!!

The moment he shouted Flame Fist, a pillar of fire soared into the sky.

As an aftermath, a squall of wind blew around us. A disaster almost broke out.

"Ohoho! Oho!"

Regardless, Lackey was dying of joy. I didn’t know if he could use that properly.

For the time being, he needed to work on controlling it. Indiscriminate firing would lead to nothing but friendly fire.

"Master."

"Speak."

"Today, you look like a chiseled hunk."

How happy was he to resort to flattery he had never done before?

Still, hearing compliments felt nice, so I smirked.

"You rascal. Flattering me like that."

"Chiseled... into tiny pieces."

"Hey, you rascal. Hand it back."

Giving this guy something nice, and he still teases me.

Well, he apologized quickly anyway. I gave him a warning to control it well from now on.

’Now, do I just need to place an engraved Orichalcum piece on top of that?’

The more I thought about it, the more the gauntlet brought to mind that purple fat guy who loved halfsies.

Though Lackey wouldn’t actually turn out like that guy.

"Master. Look at this. I’ll show you something freakin’ awesome."

"Where did you learn a phrase like... anyway, what is it?"

"Hmph!"

Lackey showed a posture of exerting force in his left hand, and then...

Creak! Crack!

Soon, he pulled out an entire tree in the distance by its roots.

Judging by the mana felt from the gauntlet, he seemed to have used telekinesis magic.

"How is it? Isn’t it cool?"

"...."

Watching that quietly, I...

"...Wait a second."

I immediately logged onto the Gallery and posted a message.

Title) Can anyone engrave telekinesis magic for me by any chance?

Wild Grylls

(Video of Lackey pulling out a tree using telekinesis magic)

Urgent. I wanna use telekinesis too.

└ Heavenly Demon) Can you not do it with your own power?

└ Wild Grylls) Are you able to do it, Heavenly Demon-nim?

└ Heavenly Demon) Utilizing the subtle secrets of the Great Shift of the Universe, it is not impossible.

└ Wild Grylls) Since I don’t know that, I’ll rely on tools for the time being.

I’ll admit it.

How could anyone resist something that cool?
