59. The Artist of Damgeumju (6)
59. Damgeumju Artist (6)
5 Days have passed. She found a custom school uniform and put it away. Her shop has been completely restored. And. With the reward money from the imperial family, a high-performance workbench was introduced into the shop.
Additionally, someone came from the Shaiza administration office. The content is to take the examination one more time. As a result of the examination, it was determined that he was completely cured. I decided to go to class starting tomorrow.
“My father was called a dipping wine artist in the village. That’s right, he pours his heart and soul into a bottle of alcohol even though his income is low. If he had mass-produced it, he would have made a lot of money.”
That was Denas Yeseul’s words. Completed all 3 types of soaked wine. The wasp drink collected all the medicinal materials that were said to be good for the body, soaked them in honey, and fed them. However, they do not eat it because it does not suit the taste of the wasp on the side. I had no choice but to melt the grass of magic gardening in oil and combine it with honey, and then I ate them all.
To be honest, it was a bit nasty to skip the common medicines and then eat them right away after they gave you the rare ones.
I paid my salary for three days, and all of them were drowned in a keg. The last drink was decided to be herbal immersion wine. Plants of magic gardening, without adding oil, in their original form. It is to put the root and soak it in alcohol. With this, you will be able to become Ansync’s disciple. After a few more days of aging, I decided to hand it over.
“Thank you, Denas-senpai. I was able to make it successfully thanks to the help of my seniors.”
“What is gratitude? But Woros, that… Hey. If you really appreciate that… “
“Oh, strawberries? Strawberries were put in this morning, so if you harvest them in the evening, you will have honey strawberries that are just right.”
“No, not strawberries… that… “
Does Denas want something from me? He hesitates, then shakes his head.
“Senior?”
“Hey, that… no. It’s nothing, don’t worry about it!”
After De Nas Yeseul says that, she walks over to the table and takes her seat. Leisurely afternoon hours. Nishia and Eldenia went to lecture today, and Denas-senpai came to her shop using the empty time.
I opened a shop, but it’s also a weekday. It is also because the publicity effect has completely disappeared, and customers do not come at all. I guess I’ll have to take action too.
“Sotia, how did the partnership go?”
“I have told you. Please make an appointment as soon as possible. They’re deciding on a successor to take over the store, so it seems that they’re also distracted.”
“Honestly, it’s been said that the store has been passed down from time immemorial to younger generations.”
I said that and walked to the workbench. I couldn’t blow time, so it was because I thought of making a potion. At that time, Denas’s owl flew in and landed on my shoulder.
“Meron, do you want to go to Denas-senpai? I have to work.”
The owl tilted her head and flew to Denas. The owl’s original name is Sharon, but Denas Yeseul says she can call her Melon if she wants, so she calls her that. I didn’t know it, but I think Woros treated the owl last year and she called it Melon.
“Woros, make a potion and put it on the table. After today’s lecture, I’ll pack it up.”
“Then I will.”
This is the biggest change after Denas Yeseul joined my store. Nishia and I didn’t care about the appearance because we didn’t have enough artistic sense, so we displayed the finished items as they were without any special measures.
Denas uses magic to craft a new glass bottle and stamp it into a pretty shape. For scented candles, a strawberry-shaped vial. In the case of potions, craft them in the shape of a milk bottle. By the way, before Denas crafted, they were all items in the conical flask.
Because the quality and design of the product have improved, it has definitely become an item that increases the desire to purchase. Now only guests have to come. Just as I was thinking that, a customer came to my store.
“Are you there? Oh, there he is.”
The visitor is a wizard with a height of nearly 190. It was Slop Arogas. He sees me and smiles broadly and approaches me.
“Welcome to the slope.”
“Hey, senior, long time no see. It’s the first time since you came back from Telcan, isn’t it?”
“Welcome. Wait, I’ll serve you the car.”
“Yes, then I will not refuse.”
Just as she was about to get up to make tea for Slop, Sotia said she would do it herself and ran to her workbench with her rifle. Sotaa didn’t have to do that because she wasn’t my employee, but she knew that she wanted to drink her strawberry tea too, so she did, so she did.
“Senior Denas is also safe. Good.”
“So, do you need a slope?”
“No. I just came here after hearing the rumors of my senior, but it would be polite to buy something while you’re here. Please wrap only two of those scented candles from last time.”
“Okay.”
Denas Yeseul gets up from her seat, walks to the shelf, and puts two scented candles in a paper bag.
“Hey, I knew that senpai would come out safely, so I waited calmly, but that day, the atmosphere in front of the portal was completely like a house of mourning, wasn’t it?”
“Yes. There was a bit of a crisis, but it came back safely. Thank you for trusting me.”
“Thank you.”
“By the way, Slop, you said you heard about me and came to visit me, right? Can you tell me something about that rumor? In fact, I was worried because there were no customers coming to the store, but in the meantime, I’m worried because it’s a rumor.”
When I said that, the smile disappeared from Slop’s face.
“Actually, it is. There might be a little trouble for you, isn’t it?”
“Please explain in detail.”
“Yes, there is a bare-legged wizard, the second-in-command of Arisha’s first year, isn’t it? Maybe Remy Mikaret.”
“Yes, you mean the wizard who floated in the air?”
“That’s right.”
Sotia passes her strawberry tea to me and Srop, one cup at a time. As she turns her head to say her thanks to Sotia, Denas, intrigued by her strawberry tea, is seen peering into her teapot.
“That woman. Isn’t she creating a faction while saying that gathering is power? Because of that, Arisha’s class is in a mess.”
“…… “
“Perhaps there is a lot of money in the family, I bought a warehouse in District 2, and I am using it as a hideout to gather faction members, but this is not an ordinary thing.”
“Isn’t that normal?”
“It’s not just students. Aren’t the District 2 merchants and even her adventurers lending their strength to that woman?”
I nodded at Slop’s words.
“That woman is targeting her senpai. She probably noticed her senior’s performance during the undead incident. What bothers her is that she herself does not get her hands dirty, and uses her lower ones to expand her power.”
“It’s not even a fuss.”
“That’s right. I don’t know what she’s done, but as if possessed by something, the faction members completely follow the bare-legged mage. The problem is… There was also violence.”
Slop let out a deep sigh.
“By taking on the challenge… When defeated, he tells them to become members of his faction, and they start a fight. If you think you can’t win by force, several people will attack you.”
“… So will you send someone to me too?”
“Yes, or the bare-legged mage himself.”
“I see. Thanks for letting me know.”
Expansion of Remy Micaret’s power. In , When the second semester begins, Remy’s faction begins to be mentioned in earnest. As Slop said, Remy is not only a student, but also a Merchant and Adventurer in District 2, with overwhelming funds. She makes even poor graduate students and students of Melgard Military Academy her own.
It’s a relatively light task if only her students are targeted, but Remy is so obsessed with her tenacity that she exploits the weaknesses of certain of her professors and blackmails them into giving themselves over. She can’t be said to have a good disposition, just like her title is .
That’s why she uses her power to do her best. She releases moonshine in District 2 to get her share, and also makes and distributes drugs with hallucinogenic effects. Of course, all of this has nothing to do with Remy the moment it is discovered.
In other words, no matter what crime she commits, the moment she is discovered, Remy cuts off her tail, and she acts like she has nothing to do with it.
Remy’s faction is structured that way. I also wonder why Remy is so obsessed with the power of her clique. She knows all about what she’s going to do. Remy’s downfall is a set sequence. She was, so I thought she wouldn’t mind, but when she sticks her teeth into me, it’s a different story.
“Have you been attacked too?”
“Yes. Of course, the stick… No, I beat them all up with a cane and sent them back. She argued with the bare-legged wizard, but she pretended not to know and shrugged her off. There is no evidence, so it is frustrating.”
“I had a lot of trouble.”
“What about hardship? Not just me, that… I also went to a swordsman named Rayplane, isn’t that guy doing a bit too? There is no way it will work. Looking at it, isn’t Layplane poor like me?”
Slop said that and took a sip of strawberry tea. He was frowning until he drank, but when he removed the cup from his mouth, his expression changed to a wide smile.
“Anyway, it seems to focus on students with financial difficulties. Didn’t I also hesitate for a moment when he said he would give me money?”
“Is that so?”
“Yes, anyway, senpai, be careful. Bare-Legged Mage, I felt out of the ordinary. How to say… Should I say it’s like a snail? Looking into her eyes, she always had the feeling that she was up to something. I want to try my hand, but the situation is not coming out well.”
Based on the original work, Remy’s contact with Srop is when she is in her second semester. However, the Laughter Syndrome incident in Act 6 of Part 1 disappeared. Considering that the events in Act 7 of Part 1 happened earlier, it wouldn’t be particularly surprising that the time zones were out of sync.
Remy’s thing is to shake off only the dung that falls on me… No wait.
“Can you do me a favor for a slope?”
“Tell me.”
“There is a girl named Rin in Arisha. If he sees any signs that Remy has been there, will she let me know?”
“Rin? From before, senior took care of Rin secretly. Well, it’s not difficult, so I’ll do it.”
Of course, Remy also contacts Rin and Len. If she chooses Arisha, she’s on the verge of getting involved in what would cost her expulsion if discovered. She, of course, without knowing herself.
Lerisha takes them out right before they get involved in the case, and the case evolves and all the students involved are expelled. Neither Larry Shana nor Rinlen know that Remi is behind the incident, but she decides that there is someone behind it, and begins an investigation.
In this case, if she chooses Melguard, she sets out to evolve the case with Lerisha from the beginning, and from there she notices that she has a mastermind behind it. If she had chosen Shaiza as an aside, she would contact Remi knowing that she was the culprit, get her reward, and get out of the way when the case escalates.
The problem is Lin. Now Rin and Ren exist at the same time. There are two main characters, but Lerisha is one. Based on the experience so far, both Rin and Ren will be involved in the case, and Melguard, Ren, is fine, but Arishaine, Rin, is more likely to be involved in the case.
In this situation, there is a high probability that Lerisha, who is supposed to save Rin, will be with Ren. She’s in the same class as him, so it’ll be easier to meet Ren. Even if Lerry Shah goes to Rin, as long as Ren is Mel Guard, she will never join the group.
The incident is evolving anyway, and all the students involved are expelled. Rin doesn’t really know anything and she’ll join in, but if she doesn’t get someone out she’ll be expelled.
Lin, she is one of the main characters who will help to destroy the Blood family in the final chapter of the third part. She can’t let a game over in a place like this. There might be a way for me to contact Rin myself and take action in advance, but Rin and I aren’t that close. Anyway, since that incident is always a sign, it seems like all I have to do is to ask the slop to look at the dynamics.
If there are signs, then we should start in earnest.
“Please. You really have to come right away and let me know.”
“Please leave it to me.”
I asked for a handshake with Slop, who speaks confidently. He smiles and accepts my handshake.
