Synopsis

The chapter introduces Kang Hyerim, a character with three main character-level talents including the 'Goryeo Era Swordmaster,' which she initially dismisses. Teller Kang Yoohyun, after realizing Hyerim's potential, takes her under his wing by having her start with a sword and guiding her towards becoming a heroic figure. Through a seemingly simple task of swinging a sword and encountering Kobolds, Hyerim begins her journey as a collector. The chapter also hints at a bigger world where tellers and collectors make stories for divine spirits and the presence of a "miraculous three," including Hyerim as the Sword Empress.
