[Rel's POV]
[South Korea, Mireuksan Mountain]
Mireuksan Mountain
Countless mid-grade and higher-class mid-grade monsters inhabit the area, standing out against the vast green landscape.
Years ago, I hiked here and was amazed by the thriving ecosystem in this peaceful scenery.
The memory of that hike had inspired me to recreate this location in my novel, but I had populated it with a plethora of deadly creatures, a challenge for any hero foolish enough to trespass.
However, the mountain's role in the story went beyond mere monster-infested terrain.
It was here, in a hidden area deep within Mireuksan, on the far east side, that Jan would discover one of the key components of his ultimate weapon: the Sword of Hope.
