Synopsis
After his father suddenly passed away, Kang Cheol barely had time to mourn. Before the scent of incense had even faded from his funeral clothes, he changed into his work clothes and threw himself into clearing the backlog of work.
But…
Customers dissatisfied with the weapons he forged.
“You think I paid for this piece of junk? Give me a refund right now! Are you going to or not?”
Employees who once swore they would do anything just to learn his father’s techniques.
“Boss, we’ll only be working until the end of this month.”
Sales kept falling. Employees kept leaving. Losses continued to pile up.
Three years passed.
One day, while looking through the office wall covered with his late father’s work journals—a sight he had seen hundreds of times—he discovered a single journal he had never seen before.
“This is… something Father was making.”
For the first time in a long while, memories of his father came flooding back. But that was all. The journal seemed to offer nothing that could help his current situation.
As Kang Cheol turned away…
The journal he had been reading suddenly shone like the flames of a blazing forge before disappearing.
It wasn’t long before a notification window appeared before his eyes.
[You have awakened.]
