202 – Colossus
Just before heading to the Devil’s Tower, we started preparing to climb the tower.
‘Because the level of difficulty there went crazy.’
Beginning with Demon King Solomon, the leader of the 72nd place demons, single-digit demons that even transcendentalists cannot ignore.
No, the devil itself is dangerous.
The power they possess cannot be stopped even by my reverse wind.
Because the system is a mystery that interferes with power.
‘That’s why it’s annoying.’
To put it simply, suppose there is a swordsman with the power to cut anything.
If a knight who can block anything fights a swordsman with the power to cut anything, the direction of the fight will change to a battle of thoughts.
However, the demons’ power to interfere is different.
Their power is great to be expressed in any way. The power to make Dantalian’s nightmares took even me, so even the Transcendentalists can’t ignore them.
That is the mystery.
That much means that although the reward for clearing the tower is enormous, it is just as difficult.
“It’s very serious… ….”
“Well, it’s better to prepare thoroughly.”
The demons are also a problem, but the existence that avoided the gaze of the transcendental mage of cloth was the problem.
Perhaps the reason why the Hwarang guild members disappeared was more likely to be a plan carried out by the demon than the kidnapping by the demon inside the tower.
‘It’s a luggage problem, because there’s nothing to be a problem if you put it in a subspace.’
So, prepare thoroughly.
Buy what you can buy, make what you can make with alchemy.
‘I should stop by the workshop.’
In the workshop inside the Korean Hero School, there are a lot of potions that I made after opening the concept stat alchemy. And the bowl made with the power of Hong Yu-hwa and Seolhwa-ryeon is also there.
‘I have to use this opportunity to awaken the power that Seong Han-byul has.’
「Infinite Cup(S)」. And “Book of the Law (S)”.
It seems like a fraudulent talent, but that wasn’t Sung Han-byul’s real strength. Hiding between those two talents. The power that was close to a curse had no choice but to seal it because it took away Seong Han-byul’s life just by existing.
‘I have to wake up soon.’
The world’s only native Ex-class talent.
*
I went to the studio and got a bowl and all sorts of potions.
Potions that are lightly passed over by billions of units each. There are also elixirs that have no effect on me, but have a weak effect on Seong Han-byeol and Seo Ga-yeon.
“…… I, you support this?”
“Yes, whatever you want to eat… Oh, don’t eat that. I’ll just mix it up and give it to you.”
Seong Han-byeol tried to eat cheap food, so I stopped him.
The combination of elixir is also important. Just as you have to take a yin-attribute elixir to take a yang-attribute elixir, you shouldn’t take it carelessly.
I personally placed the mass-produced elixirs in order and told Sung Han-byeol to eat them.
“Ga-yeon…….”
I hesitated while choosing the elixir to feed Seo Ga-yeon.
Does Seo Ga-yeon, who has the magic of starlight, really need to take the elixir? She and I raise each other’s level through pure training. That’s why elixirs can be extremely poisonous.
‘But now the balance is broken.’
When I achieved the highest rank, Seo Ga-Yeon also achieved the highest rank soon after. But in the process, Seo Ga-yeon felt like some of her own potential had disappeared, she said.
In that case, it is better to feed the elixir to balance it.
I picked out some mass-produced elixirs for Seo Ga-yeon.
-Good.
Unknowingly, I felt surprisingly strong emotions.
Seo Ga-yeon, who has starlight and positive magic, has a power that is completely symmetrical to mine. She has the exact opposite nature of Gi Ki, who denies everything, but because of that, the two of us share each other’s images.
Is it because it is a power derived from the creator god?
I judged this to be a sign that our forces were about to unite.
“But why the elixir?”
“I’m going to go to the devil’s tower soon.”
“Really?”
Seo Ga-yeon started taking the elixir one by one. She didn’t ask anything.
“…… Don’t ask me why I’m going There is no difference between a limb and a limb.”
“There is a reason why Seoha agreed to go, right?”
Seo Ga-yeon said that at Seong Han-byul’s words and looked at me.
His black hair swayed. She took the elixirs and sat down next to me.
Its appearance was close to that of a pet, so I laughed without knowing it. It was like a cat I had in the past. What I was doing was an infallible dog…….
Without realizing it, I reached out and gently stroked Seo Ga-yeon’s hair. Seo Ga-yeon was startled, but she soon put on an expression that seemed to be in a good mood.
“…… Hamster.”
“…… ?”
“Oh, no.”
As if I was the only one who felt that way, Seong Han-byeol muttered that and looked at me.
“I will pay for these elixirs no matter what.”
“It’s okay. You will receive it from Hwarang.”
“…… Will it be expensive?”
“Is this a series that will be released to the world this time?”
In fact, we leaked information about this to several companies, and even the CEO of a giant dinosaur company who had been in trouble with the alchemists forgot about the past and quietly offered to do business with us. Of course, he didn’t accept the deal.
“Since Jinri-nim participated, the gallery will give it to you without hesitation. Since I am acquainted with Jinri-nim, I will tell you not to overcompensate.”
“…… Then you will be in too much debt.”
“If you think so, there is nothing you can do.”
However, if you feel that the debt is too much, you can join our guild. I swallowed the word
. Because it’s too blatant. If Sung Han-byeol’s naive personality, he’ll just scratch it a few times. But then, she will have a debt in her heart.
I didn’t want that.
“Even if it’s an elixir, since it’s mass-produced, it’s effective only once, so take it in the order I taught you. Oh, if you think it works well, I would be grateful if you publicize it later.”
“…… The ability increase is too good to be called a mass-produced elixir.”
“That’s a lot of hard work. I also put restrictions on things that could only be effective once…….”
There was also a subtle trick.
After all, an elixir is consumed once, and if you consume the same kind of elixir, the effect is drastically reduced. In terms of experience, it’s about 10% or not.
In that case, if you put a rune constraint on it, the ability increase rate increases by about 30%.
In addition, the elixirs given to Seong Han-byeol and Seo Ga-yeon now have extraordinary effects. It’s because I carefully selected the ingredients and made them myself. The quality is inevitably different from the elixirs that will be released on the market.
“Seoha’s Homemade Elixir… ….”
Seo Ga-yeon said that and looked at me.
“It’s too good to eat.”
“Eat anyway. Ga-yeon thought a lot while making it.”
“…… !”
“Wow… ….”
Seo Ga-yeon liked it, and Seong Han-byeol looked at me with complex eyes.
It’s like trash flirting with women, but with such an expression that I can’t say anything because I owe a lot…….
‘This is a bit of a wound.’
Anyway, I said it while putting on a sales smile.
“It’s called the Rainbow Series, so please give it a lot of love.”
“I think there will be a lot of inquiries. Thanks anyway.”
Seong Han-byeol said that and took the elixir.
“And leave it to me to go to the Devil’s Tower. Even if you look at it like this, the Hwarang Guild uses a bit of strength.”
“Yes. I will only believe in seniors and prepare, so please come quickly.”
Seong Hanbyeol left the guild like that and went to the association to get her permission.
I sat down and started doing guild work, and Seo Ga-yeon stood next to me and watched it.
“When should I take the elixir?”
“After a while. Because this is more important now.”
After all, rest is also an extension of work. I watched the guild work.
Seo Ga-yeon clung to me.
It was just that.
…… After a while, Seong Han-byul arrived.
“I came with permission! Now you can enter the Devil’s Tower!”
“Really? Is it fast?”
“At the gallery, an important person was kidnapped…….”
At my words, Seong Han-byeol said gloomily.
I looked at Sung Han-byul for a moment. If she is close to her, she is probably the one who gave her the opportunity to join her gallery. And if the person who carried out the kidnapping in the Devil’s Tower is that person.
‘I would have died… ….’
He must have died with a high probability.
The person responsible for the kidnapping is such an existence. An existence that can avoid the eyes of the cloth mage and move freely in the tower. In the world, people unanimously called the existence a nickname out of fear.
It is said to be evil.
