Episode 19. Forbidden Elixir
Trier has a talent that surpasses that of his father, Gawain, when it comes to swordsmanship.
If she devotes herself to it, she will go beyond the Imperial First Sword and enter the realm of the sword god.
Although in the original, the serialization was stopped before reaching that point…
However, the tree had abandoned swordsmanship. I gave up on becoming a knight.
It wasn’t that he despaired before his talents blossomed.
She had already reached the level of a senior knight at a young age.
The trigger was none other than the death of his father, the first sword of the Empire, to be exact, his disappearance.
Gawain von Schulzenberg.
He gladly participated in the Freyja-Trud wars as a wizard and knight, a magic knight.
He was active as an imperial strategic weapon, and one day he went out for an operation and never came back.
No body was found, and the Trud Kingdom did not advertise that Gawain was killed, so everyone knows it as missing, but I, the writer, know.
Gawain actually died at the hands of the protagonist, Hurt Locker.
But ironically, even Hurt Locker doesn’t know that it was Gawain who killed him. It’s funny.
Anyway, with that event as an opportunity, Tree began to focus on magic.
To find a father who will live somewhere in this world.
To break the taboo of resurrecting him if he is dead.
In the beginning, he didn’t even know if it was magically possible to find his father, whom no one had ever found.
But one thing is certain, no matter how much you swing the sword, your father will not come back.
On the other hand, magic was a science that had no limits yet and had infinite possibilities.
So, Tree sealed the sword he loved so much in its sheath and set out on a journey with no end in sight.
Been doing that for 3 years already.
The magic still shows no sign of it, and he must have been itching to pull out the sword he always carried with him.
So, I was sure that the request to teach the sword would come all at once.
“no.”
An unexpected answer came back.
“Why?”
“Why? There’s something good about me teaching you swordsmanship.”
“············”.
Weren’t you itching to draw a sword…?
I didn’t even know what my children were thinking.
I feel like my billions are falling apart.
“Then what do you want?”
“······Magic.”
“What?”
“Can you teach me magic?”
It felt like being hit hard in the head.
I’m doing this to make you stop magic right now, but you want me to teach you magic in return?
Even though I am a commoner, I believe that I am capable enough to enter the Imperial University as a senior.
But if only I could put the sword back in Trier’s hand with this…
“good night.”
“Huh? Really? Are you teaching me magic?”
“Yes. I teach you magic. You teach me swordsmanship.”
“Ah… I’m learning very slowly, is that okay?”
“Okay.”
Watching Tree’s expression brighten, I felt a corner of my heart becoming uncomfortable.
My teaching must have been pure wild…
I just hope you don’t notice.
“Is it possible from tomorrow?”
“I’m sorry, but I think I’ll be able to teach you magic after the midterm exam. I’ve got some work to do with my magical powers.”
“I see······.”
He said that he would teach magic after the midterm exam and succeeded in passing it on.
In the meantime, I’ll take a quick look at the major book.
At the very least, you need to know at least the surface level of a watermelon to be able to teach it as a savage.
“I can do it from tomorrow. Where can I teach you?”
“There is a building used as a training room in the dormitory single room. If you come to the dormitory single room, let me guide you.”
“Then by 9 am tomorrow. How about it?”
“good night.”
The training room is spacious enough, and the walls are also reinforced with magical powers, so it is suitable for both swordsmanship and magic.
I parted with Trier with my footsteps getting lighter.
I made a regular meeting place with Trier.
Now we have to figure out how to persuade him to give up on magic.
The quickest way is to let Gawain know that Gawain is already dead and there is no magic to bring people back to life…
Even if I tell you, I can’t believe it, so it’s hard right now.
It took over a year to realize that in the original story and give up magic.
It would be quicker to awaken Trier to the fact that he doesn’t have enough talent to make him despair.
“Uh?”
When I returned to the mansion, there were shoes I had never seen in the shoe closet.
Black shoes with almost no heels. He seemed to know right away who it was.
“Are you here, Mr. Heinkel?”
“Excuse me, Schlus.”
“············”.
In the living room, Iris was sitting on the sofa drinking tea, and Emilia was standing next to it, a little uncomfortable.
“I, that’s. Heinkel-san was a guest, so I sent it back a little bit, so I asked if I would like to wait inside…”
“In short, I came in on my own terms. I hope I don’t scold the monk too much.”
“············”.
I know roughly what happened.
For Emilia, she wasn’t just a noble, and she wouldn’t have been able to humiliate Saint Iris.
I fully understand that you brought me inside without a word. The country would have
And there’s no way I’m going to scold Emilia.
Because if I make you angry, you might come to my room with a knife that night…
“So what did you come here for?”
“You sound a little chilly? I must have said that. We’ll be together for a long time.”
Iris showed a benevolent smile.
I honestly don’t know what you’re thinking.
At first, I thought that Iris would be my ally in the future, so I was treating her with kindness… Actually, that might be a trap.
Because Iris is set up as a mysterious character with a different look and feel.
In fact, you will be standing opposite me in the future, and it means that you may be trying to deceive me in order to get me into the abyss with more certainty.
“I… can I listen to this together?”
“It’s okay. Is Schlus okay?”
“Okay. Maybe.”
Emilia rolled her eyes and began to look into her eyes.
He must be worried that his throat will run out by hearing something he shouldn’t listen to.
Of course, even if I go back from here, I’ll try to eavesdrop with artifacts or whatever, so sending it or not doesn’t really mean anything.
“So why did you come?”
“I’m here to talk about our future.”
I think Emilia just flinched.
what. Is it because it’s still cold?
“Don’t doubt it, because I believe in you. What you want is what I want.”
“············”.
have to limit
It may all be a lie.
Maybe it’s a candy-lined word to get me out of my mind.
“I will help Schlust with anything she wants. Of course, only as far as I can do my best. I think it would be difficult to borrow the power of the family.”
That’s right.
The fact that Iris has a future poem is unknown to her family.
In the future, Schlus will fight to protect the continent, so you must help him now! That being said, no one believes it.
“Iris.”
“yes.”
“May I know what you saw?”
What future did you see?
I’ll have to listen to it sometime.
“It’s a secret.”
“············”.
Iris replied with a grin.
I could have lied in moderation.
Like watching a scene where Iris and Iris fight together against a hostile demon.
Did you see the scene where I rescued Iris?
In the future that I looked into, I could have lied to it by stitching it up properly.
But is it a secret…?
What is this level of saying, ‘Please doubt me’?
“There’s a secret that even Schulus can’t tell me.”
“············”.
I thought it was
I didn’t even open my mouth about why I knew about future poetry.
So, from Iris’s point of view, I was rather suspicious.
To know about future poetry that I had never told anyone… Maybe it seemed that he had the ability to read the inner mind or something like that.
So my approach must have felt intimidating to Iris.
‘I know so much about you. I can kill you and your family in one shot, so crawl on your own.’ It must have been seen as a sign.
I hate Iris like that, but I had no choice but to pretend to be a favor to me.
“Is that all you wanted to say?”
“Yes. If you need help, just call me anytime.”
“Don’t do that.”
They claim to be cooperative, but in reality they are deceiving each other.
They both have secrets they can’t tell each other, and they have different thoughts inside.
It is not known whether the interests are intertwined in the first place. At least until they reveal their secrets to each other.
They ended up in an unbelievable relationship with each other.
“It’s late, but I’m sorry. I’ll go now.”
After Iris put down the teacup, Dasomhae stood up.
With a faint smile on his lips.
It was hard to tell if he was serious or not.
Perhaps even Emilia, a master of reading emotions, could not use much strength in front of Iris.
“Go in carefully.”
“I’m going to the dormitory right in front of what?”
“Not all schools are safe. We’ve been attacked.”
“Yes? Then will you take me to the dormitory?”
“no.”
“It’s chilly. It’s difficult if you keep doing this. We’ve been seeing each other for a long time. Can’t you be a little more polite?”
“I’ll treat you like that when the time comes. For now, not now.”
“Fufu. We’ll see how long we can do that.”
Iris smiled meaningfully and left the mansion.
Hearing what he said, it seems that we will become a special relationship in the future…
Because it’s impossible to feel love for the type combinations I’ve made.
That much can be said for sure.
“Mr. Emilia.”
“Ah, ah. Yes?!”
“···········?”
Emilia stood blankly, then replied with a wink and surprise.
What are you doing this for?
What kind of smoke was that?
“I’ll go to the training room. If it’s late, don’t wait and sleep first.”
“Oh, I see.”
Emilia looked at me strangely and was agitated.
Really, why are you doing that?
I was puzzled, but headed to the training room.
*
“Ahhh…”
After looking through the book for hours, I was dying.
I think I’ve skimmed half of the book now, but halfway through, I couldn’t understand it, so I had to read it over and over again.
“Slowly…”
Now is the time.
I closed the book and recalled the ability list inside.
All of a sudden, a light came on indicating the activation of the ability, ‘selection and concentration’.
It was possible to write past 12 o’clock.
“If my hypothesis is correct, we could open a store with this.”
I decided to revisit it carefully, to be more certain.
The store opening condition is that all stats exceed 10.
However, there was no saying that all stats had to be passed ‘at the same time’, so I came up with the idea of whether it would be possible to pass 10 one day at a time with ‘selection and concentration’.
So far, the stats have been raised step by step, and now there is only one thing left. just a robber
‘Choice and focus. Used for robbery.’
Without further hesitation, I muttered to myself.
It was evident that the ability was activated, but there was no other feeling.
Since the strength of the body has been increased, there is no way you can feel it unless you injure yourself with a sword.
I thought to test it by taking a picture of my hand with a pocket knife, but the caption that immediately came to mind caught my attention.
[The store opening conditions have been satisfied.]
[The shop is open.]
“finally!”
Unknowingly, I cheered.
[The reward is paid as a store opening privilege.]
[The memory of the ability itself is strengthened.]
[Ability selection and concentration are strengthened.]
An unexpected reward was given.
strengthen your abilities
Let’s see how it has been strengthened.
[Ability: One’s own memory]
[Class: Rare]
[Description: Performing a specific action has a low chance of waking up the associated self-memory.]
The memory of the body was changed to a form close to a remake rather than a reinforcement.
If you perform a specific action during the original time limit of 1 hour, what you remember about it became completely random.
Anyway, this looks like a nerf.
It seems that Schlusz’s memories could seep into a situation that he didn’t want, and it could be a hindrance.
[Ability: Choice and Concentration]
[Rank: Legendary]
[Description: Instantly boosts certain stats only once per day. It can be disconnected and used again. Timeout: 5 seconds. Amplification: 99]
“Wow.”
Timeout from 3 seconds to 5 seconds. And now we can split the time and use it.
It was a huge benefit beyond the nerfed memory of his body.
If this is the case, I can now use each magic even on the day I took two classes.
In a situation where it was difficult to maintain a senior position if I missed even one liberal arts course, I did well.
“Now let’s go to the store.”
[shop]
[Items can be purchased using shop coins.]
[Owned Coins: 11]
[Item List]
[Forbidden Elixir]
[Lesser Healing Potion]
[Advanced Healing Potion]
·······
what was a lot
But what caught my attention was none other than-
[Judgment Day]
It was Gawain’s sword, ‘Day of Judgment’.
I remember setting it up as a scam, but this is actually the guy who disappeared with Gawain at the same time he disappeared.
One day, if I suddenly showed up, I would be taken away by the Imperial Police.
The price is 100 coins each… I’ll never buy that.
Other than that, there were some fairly intuitive items and some unknown items.
A healing potion is, of course, an item that heals wounds.
What the hell is the Forbidden Elixir?
‘Lookup.’
The ability and ‘lookup’ didn’t work either.
It didn’t seem to work for text that wasn’t the real thing.
Then there’s nothing you can do
I paid 1 shop coin to purchase a Forbidden Elixir.
[I purchased 1 Forbidden Elixir.]
“Five.”
Then a gourd appeared from the air and landed on the palm of my hand.
It was a sight to be baptized with questions if it was presented in a crowded place.
I guess I’ll have to buy something in the store by myself inside a barrier like the training room here.
‘Lookup.’
He immediately applied his ability to the caliper and activated it.
Then, as if waiting, the subtitles popped up.
[Forbidden Elixir]
[Epic Item: It cannot be duplicated or reproduced because it is out of the logic of this world.]
[Description: Permanently increases random stats by 10 when drinking. not delicious.]
“No crazy.”
The effect was really great.
“The price is 100 coins…….. I’ll never buy that”
sounds like flag
