Moonlight Sculptor: Dad is a Legend (87)
Daye trusted her father, who was on the level of hell.
Since I was little, I wasn’t afraid of the world when I was carried on my father’s back.
And a battle broke out in the castle of Evaruk where she lived.
The Caldenac Guild has declared a siege on Evaruk Castle.
You can choose your faction in the war zone.
Users who choose neither offense nor defense will be neutral.
In a siege, neutral users can also lose their lives, so users in the city stayed in their homes and buildings.
Kwaaaaang!
The ground shook as the magic cannon struck the city walls.
Magic explodes, and the screams of someone dying can be heard.
A city where a fierce war is taking place.
People stayed in their buildings and homes, hoping the fighting would just end.
The Caldenac Guild has won the siege. A new ruling guild has been created for Evaruk Castle.
The emergence of a new ruling guild changed many things.
The Caldegnac Guild, which had come to rule the city at great sacrifice, wanted to gain just as much power.
Hunting grounds entry fees increased, tax rates rose, and users who had previously been neutral began to join the Caldegnak Guild through coercion and persuasion.
“Isn’t there a user named Daye in Evaruk Castle?”
“Everything?”
“She was one of Clien’s early companions, and there was a rumor that she was the most beautiful woman. Hmm, did she already die somewhere?”
There were also users looking for Daye, but since she was quietly making sculptures, there was no need to worry about being caught.
Daye learned the art of disguise, which allowed her to change the shape of her face and body.
It is not a skill that can be compared to the secret art of sculpting, which completely changes one’s race, occupation, and body, but it is a skill that can be used conveniently.
“The Kingdom of Rebade will not last long. The borders are already collapsing.”
“Should we pursue independence?”
“Even if we don’t become independent, we won’t have to pay nearly half the taxes.”
The Kingdom of Rebaid declares Evaruk Castle a rebellious region.
A siege is fought between the Royal Army and the Caldenac Guild.
Users who side with the Caldenac Guild in the siege will also be marked with the rebel symbol.
The Caldenac Guild refused to pay taxes to the Kingdom of Ribeyd, and war broke out again.
“Let us fight together against the Kingdom of Rebaid.”
“If we unite, we won’t have to pay taxes to the kingdom.”
“Users who participate in battles will be exempt from taxes for three months.”
The Caldenac Guild gathered users in the square and succeeded in defeating the army of the Kingdom of Rebaid.
As a result, many users died and 20% of Evaruk Castle, which was a large city, was devastated.
“I believe that Dad will come.”
Daye endured the fear and horror of death.
The population of Evaruk Castle was dwindling.
Some users may have left the city, but many users have died.
The belief that if you don’t die and just wait, Weed will come.
The goddess of beauty, Sete, admires your beauty.
Attractiveness increases by 2.
Even though she was making ordinary sculptures, Daye was blessed.
‘It would have been nice if it had art stats.’
Daye completed the sculpture.
Most of Weed’s sculptures, which he worked hard to create, were evaluated as ordinary works.
Weed’s sculpture
A sculpture of a common-looking person.
Artistic value: 50
Option: Those who see the statue feel comforted.
+2% maximum health
Fatigue recovery 1%
Literally flat.
Even if your sculpting skill reaches intermediate level, it’s difficult to get your artistic value above 200.
Recently, as I completed my sculptures, their artistic value increased little by little.
Chinese Yuan Dynasty Porcelain Set Sold for $145 Million
Art Auction Market Booms… …, Bid Prices Up 7-fold
Art Investment Blows Across the World
The rise in the value of artworks that occurs because of the enormous amount of real-world activity that takes place.
Daye felt that even if the range of artistic value did not vary greatly, it was precious.
Then the real change happened.
Weed’s sculpture
This is a sculpture of Weed, the captain of the northern wall who protects the central continent from monsters.
Little is known about Weed, but he is a figure that the god of battle watches over with admiration.
The god of adventure, the god of arts, the god of fire and the forge, and the god of the abyss are also looking at him.
Artistic value: 1,300
Option: Those who see the statue have their health and mana regeneration increased by 10% for a day.
Increases maximum vitality by 30%.
I made a sculpture of Weed as I always do, and a description of him as the captain of the North Wall garrison appeared.
“Daddy! Daddy is at the north wall!”
Daye was able to hear news about Weed while making a sculpture.
I guess it’s a really difficult and dangerous place because it’s on Hell difficulty, but I still have faith that he won’t die to protect himself.
“North wall?”
“Yeah. It was called the North Wall.”
Luria was staying with Daye.
They were of similar age and had become close friends, but Luria looked through Roanoke’s history books and found out about the North Wall.
“North Wall… … . It’s here. The northern fortress of the Kingdom of Rebaid. It was a bastion that blocked the monsters of the northern plains, but it collapsed about 230 years ago. Is this it?”
“I think that might be the right place.”
They investigated the north wall.
A fortress on the central continent that was destroyed by monsters long ago.
“It seems like Dad is going on an adventure back in time on Hell difficulty.”
“That is possible, though.”
As Luria researched the information about the North Wall, she was a little skeptical.
She was invited to the Hell difficulty and literally just watched without doing anything.
So, although I don’t know much about it, the more I look into the North Wall, the more I feel that it is dangerous.
“You said that Weed was the captain of the North Wall. They say that so many monsters invaded that they burned dozens of cities from various kingdoms to the ground. In the end, the North Wall collapsed.”
“It may not be the moment when the North Wall fell that Dad is there.”
“That could be possible. But isn’t it more likely because it’s on Hell difficulty?”
Luria thought that even Weed would have a hard time guarding the north wall.
Daye had a way to get information.
You could ask historians or astrologers, but it’s rare to find players in Roanoke with such a profession.
“If I make a sculpture of my father, I will hear from him.”
Daye worked tirelessly every day to create sculptures of Weed.
The castle of Evaruk where she was staying was becoming increasingly unsafe, but she was most curious about news of her father.
A masterpiece statue of Weed was created.
The northern wall that protects the central continent.
This is a sculpture of Captain Weed, who displayed amazing charisma and commanding ability.
Garrison Captain Weed took control of the Honwood County and began preparing for a large-scale war to stop the monsters.
It is said that everyone who met him, with his devilish charm, showed absolute loyalty for some reason.
Many gods are interested in his movements.
Artistic value: 3,300
Option: Those who see the statue have their health and mana regeneration increased by 17% for one day.
Increases maximum vitality by 30%.
All stats increase by 4.
Experience and skill proficiency growth increases by 5%.
The masterpiece sculpture has finally arrived.
“I think it’s true, Luria, that Dad is blocking the monster at the north wall.”
“That’s right. It’s hell difficulty. I don’t know how many levels you have to clear to get to this point.”
Daye was amazed that her father’s sculpture had turned out to be a masterpiece.
Up until now, just making them has only resulted in mediocre results.
To create masterpieces and luxurious sculptures, they had to be carved from solid gold or inlaid with jewels.
Luria was equally curious.
‘Even if it’s hellish difficulty… … the gods are watching?’
And a few days later, the work I created changed again.
A masterpiece! A statue of Weed has been created.
A sculpture of Weed, the legendary captain of the North Wall.
This is a sculpture of Weed commanding an army of dwarves, elves, and humans.
With his devilish charm and absolute charisma, he made the soldiers of the Earldom of Honwood and the North Wall very powerful.
His adventures on the North Wall influenced several gods.
The God of Adventure, Trinity, was astonished.
Saraswati, the goddess of art, covered her face and smiled in satisfaction.
The god of battle, Lachis, is watching with great interest.
Volkan, the god of fire and forge, became hot on his own.
The ruler of the abyss muttered in astonishment.
“Ah… … . I also like this.”
Artistic value: 7,720
Option: Those who see the statue have their health and mana regeneration increased by 30% for one day.
Increases maximum vitality by 50%.
All stats increase by 7.
Experience and skill proficiency growth increases by 15%.

Fame increases by 500.
All stats increase by 2 for artistic achievements.
Attractiveness stat increases by 15.
The level of the Sculpting skill has increased.
You have earned 2 Legendary points for a piece that will go down in history.
“and…….”
Daye was amazed by the reward she received for creating a masterpiece sculpture.
I was giving up on being a sculptor because I thought it was a trash job, but I ended up getting huge rewards.
Until recently, two masterpieces were considered the highest achievement, so masterpiece sculptures were even more valuable.
“As expected from Dad.”
It was even better because the sculpture explained what Weed was doing.
* * *
The day when monsters would finally invade the north wall was approaching.
‘I’m looking forward to this quest since it’s a difficulty level S+.’
On the 29th day.
Weed was wandering quite far across the Northern Plains.
The monster habitats near the north wall had been completely swept away by the soldiers.
Roanoke’s terrain is rugged, and although it is called the Northern Plains, it is made up of hills and mountains of various sizes.
Weed climbs the mountain and looks north.
“… … .”
From beyond the horizon, creatures were endlessly flocking in.
A legion of beast-like monsters living in the northern plains, the Behids, took the lead, and hundreds of large, mutated ogres created by demons followed behind them, their bodies weary.
Beyond that, monsters are swarming in endlessly.
‘They must be the advance party.’
Weed felt his concentration awaken as he looked at the monster.
‘Now it’s time to fight.’
(Yes, the Master has created a very powerful military force.)
Weed had no idea how difficult the quest would be.
You can pursue efficiency by getting an estimate of how much preparation you need to do for most quests and battles.
If you put in some effort, you could invest in other areas.
The collapse of the Northern Wall was an event that was not fully recorded in history, despite its enormous impact on the Central Continent, and was only known as a crushing defeat.
That’s why I tried my best for the past month.
They took complete control of the Honwood County with their fragmented creatures and reinforced the defenses and soldiers of the northern wall.
There were laborers who died in accidents while working on the construction, but their graves were buried safely beneath the castle walls.
Because when the monsters come, you can recycle them.
(If the battle had happened right away, it would have been very difficult for even the master to reach S+.)
(But the master was able to invest one month of time.)
(Compared to other users, the master’s time is different in every way.)
When the quest started, Weed’s level was in the 40s.
Although it was difficult to complete the quest due to the low level, I took advantage of that weakness and mass-produced fragmented life forms.
He emptied the entire fortune of the Earl of Honwood and invested it in strengthening the north wall and in training soldiers.
The number of soldiers on the North Wall currently exceeded 40,000.
In particular, the legions of fragmented creatures have been reborn as a powerful elite group, ready to grind down the monsters that come to the north wall.
