Episode 242 Turning Point (2)
After entering the Golden Marriage Report, I can clearly see it.
Why are the different races unable to use their power in front of the royal family?
Should I feel the power of the royal family?
That precious level 3 essence fills half of the vast treasure trove.
It’s not even just one.
‘Essences that are easy to obtain and rarely used are seven or eight.’
Most of them even have spares.
Even essences with high acquisition difficulty can only be obtained within the rift, and there is always one for each color.
‘Is there even an essence of crazy Nibaroque?’
It is the essence of rare monsters that can only be found in cracks.
Although the barbarian warrior is not a good option.
Still, in terms of acquisition difficulty, it would be a 2nd grade essence…
‘How did you collect all of this?’
The more I look around, the more I think about it. If one royal family continues for thousands of years, is this ridiculous accumulation possible?
‘When I was playing the ga, I thought it was a ga so I could choose what I wanted.’
I gave up even the slightest worry that the royal family might collapse due to Noark.
What do you think about losing when you see this?
Thousands of rank 3 essences.
I don’t know what the current strength is, but it ans that the royal family can produce an army of crazy level if they want to.
‘If you feed five level 3 essences to a knight who can write an aura…’ It’s
far-fetched to even think about it.
Where is only a rank 3 integer?
Reports one level higher will also have level 2 essences.
‘……Maybe there’s even a first grade.’
The most frightening thing is that Jeongsu is not the only end.
There are also number items.
‘There is a triple number in the golden marriage report, so there must be a double number and a single number above it……’ It has a
lower priority than integers, but it is the easiest way to improve your spec when your growth reaches the limit.
‘……It’s not that I don’t have anything I want, but it’s nothing compared to essence.’
Well, would you like to take a look?
There will be ti left. I looked around the inside of the golden wedding and enjoyed the interesting items.
Well, it’s an option anyway, so I lost interest quickly because I knew everything, but… ”
I’m a little touched…
”
It was quite fun to see the wizard’s face turn white every ti he touched the equipnt.
‘Then the tour ends here.’
It was ti to make a quick decision.
So, I did a final check.
I’ve already decided which essence to take, but I don’t know.
ok, then start with this.
‘Bellarios.’
An oriental dragon.
A monster with an appearance reminiscent of an Imoogi, it is actually an upward compatible version of the Manticore.
A basic stat focused on exorcism.
And even a unique type of passive [Circulation Ring] that allows you to build up stats.
‘Well, even if I take the passive right now, it’s almost impossible to build up stats.’
[Circulation Ring] is only effective when you reach the level where you can hunt monsters of 3 or higher.
Although it was thanks to Active that it beca a core essence in the first place.
[Scale of Greed].
When this skill is used, scales temporarily grow on the skin and ‘magic resistance’ increases in proportion to exorcism.
For reference, if Exorcism exceeds 1500, magic immunity correction is obtained, and from this point on, the wizard can be killed like a passing earthworm.
What makes the Barbarian Dragon Mode possible.
But…
‘Originally, it’s not an essence worth eating right now.’
In fact, if it weren’t for the ruin scholar, the priority wouldn’t have risen to this level.
‘Manticore’ is enough for exploration.
Even if you have to eat it soday, the growth rate will change depending on which one you eat first.
Anyway, here’s the second option.
‘Bol-herchan.’
A super-large monster whose entire body is covered in shells.
As you can tell just by looking at its external features, it has skills specialized in defense. The passive will create synergy with [Ironskin] and the active will make the body able to withstand even ‘Aura’.
In simple terms, it ans the essence for preparing for Aura.
It’s the essence of a setting I haven’t had yet.
If there was this, there wouldn’t have been an arm cut off by the explorer Noark, who was using an aura.
‘Alia also used an aura…’
Since the clown said that he would send an assassin, the priority of this essence was a little higher. To be honest, of all the assassins I know, she scares the most.
‘Besides, I think I’ll have more fights with people in the future.’
Oh, but if you say it’s useless to monsters, that’s not the case again.
Being able to respond to ‘Aurors’ is only additive.
Above all, his strength level is very high, so he has the best air-defense balance among the candidates.
Then finally…….
‘Bayon.’
He is the only one classified as small among the 3 ranks that large monsters predominate.
It is also one of the few ‘humanoid’ monsters… and
‘undead’ at the sa ti. That is, it is immortal.
According to the in-ga setting, it is said that they are ancient heroes who died and ca back to life, so it has a very unique setting.
Like explorers, he fights using essence.
For reference, the combination of integers is different for each individual, but one common thing is added here.
It’s the ability of the essence he spits out.
[transcendence].
What’s unusual is that if you eat his essence, he only has this one skill.
Passive and active are common.
Oh, as for the basic stat, there is also the advantage of being less worried about MP because of the ultra-rare stat, soul power.
‘Then what should I do…’
Any essence must be eaten soday.
It’s just a matter of what to take first.
After thinking about it one last ti, I made a decision.
‘Yes, if you can only eat one, this is it.’
The day of awarding the title is awaited.
***
“Hmm, you an this integer.”
As you choose the essence, the wizard who has followed you the whole ti makes a strange expression.
“A good water purifier will do. Then I will report that to the Pri Minister.”
“Ah, can you insert a number item too? Looking at it, it looks like it’s just collecting dust—”
“No.”
It’s hard to color.
It was half a joke.
Afterwards, after an additional body search, when I returned to the waiting room, I saw my colleagues who had arrived earlier.
“It’s taking a long ti because it’s a gold marriage report.”
Mr. Bear greets with a smile on his lips.
“What did Jeongsoo choose?”
“Well, I just did what you told .
Vision 祕傳.
In simple terms, it ans a combination of guaranteed integers.
Sothing like the essence of a hero or a great explorer who left his na in history.
Of course, such people are well known, but most of them are a combination of higher essences, so it is difficult to apply them unless you are a high-level explorer.
However, small honey combinations are publicly known.
For example, didn’t even the dwarf know how to use [Ergency Restoration] to reset the cooldown of number items?
It must have been one of the visions that circulated among the dwarves.
“When I go back, I’ll have to cut off the training ground.”
Mr. Bear, who chose Jeongsu on my recomndation, was full of desire to quickly leave the palace and use his newly acquired skills.
I guess that’s the sa for everyone.
“Let’s go back to Bjorn! The warrior’s power is controlling my body! I have to explode it quickly!”
Unlike , there were three people who got level 5 essence, but I’m a little envious of this one.
After that, I have to wait until the day of the awarding of the title.
“Oh, be patient. Erwen hasn’t co yet.”
“It’s that fairy, can’t you just tell to co alone!”
“Hey, what did you say I would do if you said that?”
“Poetry is a mistake. So, only carrot soup please……”
Misha defends Erwen while scolding Einar.
After all, my eldest sister is supporting , so it’s reassuring.
After waiting for a while, Erwen also finished selecting the essence and returned.
“You’re late. Did you have any problems?”
“No. I chose the one that the uncle gave . But after eating, I didn’t get used to it for a while, so I took a break and ca back…”
Well, I guess so.
As soon as you eat most of the top essences, big changes in your body co.
“I’m sorry. You waited a long ti, right?”
“I’m sorry, I hope it wasn’t a problem. Now then, let’s go back.”
After that, we rode the carriage prepared by the royal family and returned to District 7, which felt like ho.
And I went straight to the training ground.
The only space in the city where the use of supernatural powers is permitted.
“Then let do it first.”
Mr. Bear summoned Cheolwoong Iradun.
Then, a pig purchased at the entrance of the training ground was placed on the target.
“I can’t do it with my own hands. Misha, can you do it for ?”
“? Uh… Okay.”
Afterwards, Misha used the sword to wound Woong, and with that, the preparations were over.
「Abman Urikfried cast [Hungry Claw].」
Soon the arrow started to glow red.
Mr. Bear put it on a string and aid it at the pig’s thigh.
Pooh-!
“Kwiyiyiik!!!”
Literally, a pig that emits a clicking sound and goes mad. However, it didn’t take long for that energy to fade.
dump.
It didn’t even hit the vital point, but soon the pig collapsed and stopped moving.
There was no blood flowing.
That’s because the stuck arrow was absorbing blood.
Shaaaaaaa-!
Even at this mont, the arrow stuck in the pig was extracting vitality and delivering it to Mr. Bear.
And here cos the synergy of the combination.
「Abman Urijkfried’s life force is currently at its maximum.」
「Transfers the remaining life force to the target to which the soul is connected.」
The energy absorbed was transmitted back to Woong through Mr. Bear.
“Ugh?”
At so point, Woong got better from all his injuries.
“I thought it was long, but the number of souls really recovered.”
“When you get hurt, it says in the book that you co first, so be careful about that.”
That’s what he said, but there’s little chance that Mr. Bear, who’s ranged, will get hurt, so it’s safe to say that the tank line has beco stronger.
Well, the benefits don’t end there.
The dead body of a pig dried up like a mummy about three minutes after the arrow hit it.
‘Duration isn’t bad at this level.’
In addition, Mr. Bear also has [Cooked Arrow], so the arrow stuck in it is difficult to pull out.
It ans that only once implanted, the continuous damage and blood sucking continue to overlap.
‘If I get [Altruism] later, not only Cheol-woong but also we can be treated with that.’
Of course, there is no plan to make Mr. Bear a healer, just that it will be a build-up.
So, how precious is one integer?
Healing is best left to a professional healer.
‘I’m going to have to save the priest soon…’
Anyway, the next turn was Ainar.
「Einar Pnellin has cast [Beast Control]」
Anyway, since there is nothing to use as a graduation essence for level 5, I chose one that is effective right away and can be used for the longest ti.
「All conditional activation effects of the following attacks are converted into cutting power.」
[Scar of Explosion], which explodes when hitting the sa spot, and [Life Absorption], which increases regenerative power when hit.
[Beast Control] now converts both of these effects into cutting power.
Just like this.
Slow-!
No matter how much it was an adamantium greatsword, it was a steel bar that was cut in half without any resistance.
“Can I try it with another sword?”
“That’s why it can’t be done. Try your best.”
Unlike pigs, steel bars are free.
These are things that can be restored with magic.
“Then…….”
Einar tested it once again with the cheap iron sword provided at the training ground.
The result was the sa.
Seokkuk-
A steel bar that cuts through a match.
‘Okay, if this happens, the options will increase.’
When dealing with multiple enemies, you will apply explosion and blood sucking, and when dealing with a single strong enemy, you will fight in a way that raises your cutting power.
To put it simply, he is no longer a Western one-tool barbarian.
“So, is it my turn this ti?”
After that, Misha also tested the newly obtained essence, followed by Erwen.
Both of them showed a satisfied expression while seeing the synergy that exceeded their expectations.
‘……Barbarian sadly.’
Why am I the only one who still don’t have a new integer?
***
Two days later, I visited the palace again.
To be honest, I wasn’t as nervous as I was the first ti.
How many tis have you been there this month alone?
Of course, today had to be a little different from the last visit.
“You’re so tall, could you bow down a bit?”
As if even the banquet dress Kyle gave her was not enough, the servants clung to her, dressing her up and dressing her to the fullest.
Also, there are no colleagues around.
That’s right, I’m the only one invited today.
It seed that it was a long-standing tradition of the royal family that no noble person could participate in the confernt of titles.
‘It’s already noisy over there.’
The place where I am now is the Palace of Glory, where I have been once before. Musical instrunts can be heard from where there is an inner hall.
Looks like the banquet has already started.
Perhaps the ti we enter will be the climax of the banquet.
“Ahh, wearing it like that makes it a lot more personable.”
While she was dressed up and waiting, Count Verdehild ca to visit.
Yes, it was with the youngest daughter.
“Ah Arabella Ferdehild.”
The young lady still couldn’t make eye contact with , perhaps because she was afraid of .
Even on a day like today, the Count simply chatted and went back, as if he had no intention of bothering himself by bringing up the story of an arranged marriage.
Well, should I say a warning?
“Today, there are three people who are awarded titles, including you. One is a viscount and the other is a marquis.”
this is what i heard
To be precise, unlike , inheritance would be the correct expression rather than bestowal.
“I don’t mind being a viscount, but the prospective marquis of the Kudou family is famous for having a fierce temper and a strong desire to compete.”
“In a word, I didn’t listen.”
“…That’s an accurate expression. So be careful. It’s only one day, so you might think that you’ve taken away the main character’s place. Ah, if soone over there provokes you, just be patient. You’re also a person here now. You can’t just do what you want, can you?”
“I’ll keep your advice in mind.”
“Yes, that should be enough. Then I’ll go without bothering you. See you later.”
Afterwards, the count really coolly took his daughter and left. Apparently, the only purpose was to make friends with .
‘It’s politics…….’
For so reason, I rembered what happened in the doppelganger forest, so I laughed. Will barbarian politics work in an aristocratic society?
As I passed the ti with such silly delusions, the day quickly fell.
‘Wow, did you really stay in this small waiting room for over 10 hours?’
After that, I went out to the aisle where the red carpet was laid out, and there were two n who were there first.
A man dressed up to the fullest on the day of the confernt of the title.
‘That little thing over there must be a viscount…….’
I stared at a man with a fairly good physique for a human being. Just looking at it, the eyes were ferocious, it seed that this was the marquis.
“Nice to et you. You think you’ll be awarded the title of baronet this ti? I congratulate you. The royal family will be blessed to have a hero like you join us.”
The reserve viscount had been asking for greetings, throwing various rhetoric even in empty words, but the reserve marquis had none of those things.
“…….”
A guy who glanced at and snorted as if he didn’t want to even talk to a commoner savage like .
‘If you give sothing like that, it’s comfortable for .’
Anyway, I’m not interested either.
I have no intention of wasting my ti doing politics.
All I want is a level 3 essence and the convenient feeling of nobility.
“Today’s protagonists enter!”
Soon, upbeat music rang out and the door opened.
‘Co to think of it, this is the second ti I’ve passed this month.’
I naturally walked along the carpet without any particular tension. The arrangent with the reserve marquis in the middle, on the left, and the reserve viscount on the right.
trudge trudge.
We, who were cheered by the nobility, soon stopped in front of the throne.
The chancellor stood on the empty throne.
The Pri Minister looked at us and threw a comnt for the ceremony, and we bowed on one knee as abbreviated.
That was the mont.
‘huh?’
I’m about to squat down, but the prospective marquis pup leans toward .
what?
Have you lost your balance?
At first, I thought that way and tried to catch it, but I soon realized that it wasn’t like that.
malice.
Unconsciously, I caught a dark emotion in that movent.
It was really absurd.
Pretending it was a mistake, it seed like he was trying to push to roll on the floor…
‘……Are you a crazy bastard?’
Putting aside the fact that he is committing such an indecent act in this place where the eyes of nurous aristocrats as well as the pri minister, the second-in-command of the royal family in na and reality, are covered.
‘I wonder if that will work.’
The best defense is offense.
Unknowingly, power went into my body, and at the sa ti, the guy and my body collided.
Poo-!
The results according to the laws of physics were already predetermined.
“Ah!!”
The reserve marquis, who bounced forward with a heavy sound, rolls one round on the carpet.
It’s a bonus that all the stiff suits are crumpled.
“…….”
The music stopped for a mont at that creepy ugliness, and silence ca.
Suddenly, the count’s advice ca to mind.
“…….”
Oh right.
I was patient
