Arriving to the 2nd floor I first check the place where Emma got kicked.
It seems to hurt, but no bones appear to be broken and the damage is not serious. For now, this is a relief.
『Hey, Noir-kun. Who is this girl! Even though you have !』
This is the real Master. Unlike the fake she is still bound by chains, and can’t move freely.
I introduce Emma and tell Master what happened. As expected, even she was surprised to hear that there was an attempt to create a copy of her.
However, as expected, it was incomplete. The number of skills it possessed couldn’t even begin to compare with what the master held originally. Even her level lacked so digits.
【Create】and 【Grant】were probably copied before they were inherited by .
『Edit is a bit special, it probably struggled with it. Looks like the thing is unexpectedly puny. Noir-kun should be able to easily take it down.』
「That is a harsh thing to say to soone who almost got crushed……」
「Olivia-san, it might be a rude thing to ask, but isn’t there so kind of weakness?」
『Emma-chan, was it? How big is your chest?』
「Eh?」
『It’s bigger than mine, right? Not telling you then!』
Master is a kind of person to jest without caring for ti and place. It threw off Emma quite a bit since she wasn’t used to that.
I then asked once again, this ti seriously, if there is so kind of a weak point, but it looks like Master doesn’t know as well. She never lost to anyone, to begin with.
「But even you, Master, should have had so kind of a difficult battle?」
『MMMmmmmmmmm………………Ah………………………………I think…………………………I had one…………………………Or not………………………?』
「So you don’t rember……」
『But there should be sothing! On top of that, I vaguely rember that it probably should be soone from Noir-kun’s town.』
Well, it was two hundred years ago after all. It would’ve been way scarier if she actually rembered it in detail.
There are a lot of extant docunts concerning the teacher.
I heard that many of them are random made-up stories, but among them facts are recorded as well.
『Or rather, you should just ignore sothing like that. Olivia is fine, just move to the 15th floor.』
「No. I will definitely defeat her.」
『……I see. Then I’ll be looking forward to it, just a bit. But please rember, you would make a lot happier by not dying. Rember that.』
「I will certainly kill it!」
After promising that, Emma and I leave the dungeon.
After reaching the town we part our ways.
「There is a scholar knowledgeable in history among my parents’ acquaintances. I will ask that person.」
「Thank you. I will do a research of my own.」
First, I head to the largest library. Using it would require a bit of money.
Well, it’s about the sa as one or two als, so I have no hesitation. The problem is, important tos are rarely available to the general public.
I look through the tos on the history of the city and the history of adventurers.
As expected, Master’s na often cos up in the books on famous adventurers.
Though none had a clear understanding of the nature of her power.
Most of them said that she overwheld enemies with mysterious magic.
Going through the history of the town I found a record that upon her stay in one of the famous inns of the town she got into a fight with Litorine and won.
Who is Litorine?
Since the na was recorded, it should be soone important.
I check for Litorine.
Turns out, she was a pretty famous person here. A saintess that greatly contributed to the developnt of the town.
Though I never learned about this at school, there were a lot of amazing people in the past. Luna-san might be knowledgeable about this.
There seems to be no information on other people that fought the master, so I narrow my search to Litorine.
What I managed to find is the following.
She was good at healing.
Despite being a saintess she had a rough temperant.
A tall woman with an abnormally high physical ability.
So while being a healer she also had a trained body. Since I couldn’t get anything more from the books I head to Luna-san.
Reaching the temple I’m hit with lancholy. Even though it’s a day off, there is a huge line of people outside. Since it couldn’t be helped, I queue as well.
My turn ca an hour and a half later.
「Noir-dono, you didn’t have to line up, you just had to tell .」
「I thought I would go with the usual order. There is sothing I wanted to ask. Do you know about a saintess Litorine, who lived two hundred years ago?」
「Of course I do.」
Nice, so I was right!
It seems that upon taking up the duties of saintess they are made to learn about outstanding saintesses of the past.
Especially if it’s about the saintessess of their own town, they would study and read books on them. And it seems that the temple had a book on the life of Litorine.
I explain the situation and ask if it would be okay for to read that book.
「Normally we wouldn’t allow outsiders to do that…… Please wait for a bit.」
Luna-san went to consult with an elder priest. She bows her head. I can’t thank her enough for going that far for .
「It’s fine as long as you keep it inside the temple.」
「Thank you! As always, you are a great help!」
The old priest guides inside a small room. Bringing from another place a book, he then placed it on the table.
Thanking him, I then check the contents. Litorine’s life from her birth to the end of her days.
Stating that she was a rare saintess, that combined both benevolence and fighting spirit.
Many troubles accompanied her due to that character, but there is no count to the great number of people saved.
Well, there is no perfect person.
Lately, I began to think that it’s only natural for people to have good and bad sides.
She had high physical abilities and defeated enemies while making free use of her healing magic. It looks like she had a skill known as 【Sacrifice】.
This skill allows one to strengthen oneself by sacrificing their own skills.
First ti I heard about sothing like this. It must be pretty rare.
Sacrificing skills would prevent you from using them again. In other words, all hardship that went into gaining skills would be rendered null in one combat.
The price is high. Won’t one run out of skills pretty soon?
The answer to that question was written right there.
For Litorine, learning new skills was simple.
「I see. Since she could learn them one after another it wasn’t a problem.」
Since they say that she once overpowered even a dragon, she should be the one who gave so much trouble to Master. If I had Sacrifice I might be able to deal with Fake Olivia.
Sacrifice 500 LP
Making it is a lot easier than I thought. But the na is scary, so I’ll check the description.
〈Sacrificing known skills increases physical and magical ability for a certain period of ti. Stronger skills give a larger increase. Sacrificing one skill gives one minute buff. Two skills – three minutes. Three skills – five minutes.〉
The buff ti is so short!
Since it uses skills for the sacrifice I thought it would give more…… The contents also look pretty complex.
In conclusion, sacrificing three S class skills would give the best effect. This would give a large increase for five minutes.
Sacrificing each of them on their own would give only three minutes of buff. This calls for good judgnt.
Since getting the skill itself is not a problem I spend LP on it.
It has good compatibility with since I can mass produce skills with【Create】.
The question is how cost-effective would be its performance. For this I have no other choice but to test it little by little.
By the ti I stepped outside it was already dark.
Dropping by Emma’s house, I ask her to let know if she finds out anything else about Litorine.
