Chapter 119
Kerondil’s limited special dish that can be obtained from the student cafeteria.
If it’s normal rice, I don’t have to pay attention to the lack of this mat head.
that’s right!
“I’ve been thinking about it before. Seeing the kids who don’t have enough time to devote themselves to their busy lives, I wonder if I can do something to improve their skills even a little bit.”
But he’s a chef.
All you can do is eat.
So, the conclusion this man came up with was… … .
“Then, wouldn’t it be enough to feed them food that is helpful for training?”
Rice to be strong.
I want to be some kind of dreamy nonsense, but in fact, there are not uncommon drugs in the world that help build a body.
“indeed… … . Is that why Xian is assisting with the meal Lord Cherondil is studying?”
“That’s it. A test bed that does not fall easily… … . No, students are rare.”
You were going to call the student a test bed, right?
Putting that old man’s bullsh*t aside, the special dish was quite useful.
It’s because I actually confirmed that my status increased.
“Amazing! After all, Lord Cherondil!”
Elcia also applauded in admiration.
“Hmm, yes. It would be nice if you could find out. good night. Since you came here, I will give you yours as well.”
“Then I will be grateful for the favor.”
“… … I have to look at the reactions of the other kids besides him.”
“yes?”
Elcia tilted her head, wondering if she had heard it wrong.
I don’t bother making unnecessary remarks. In this case, the rule is to keep your mouth shut.
No, that’s unreasonable, so should I say a word?
“Elcia.”
“What.”
“Do you have poison tolerance?”
“… … Nodding to some extent.”
“Yes, that is fortunate.”
I’m really glad At least one life won’t fly away.
After a while, Mr. Kerondil returned with a tasting dish for two.
“Take it easy and taste it.”
“… … .”
However, unlike the upbeat attitude from before, Elcia’s complexion was drained of blood.
It must have been instinctively realized.
The identity of that man’s special dish.
‘Come to think of it, back in the game days, that was classified as medicine, not food, right?’
That too is extreme.
It’s probably like a joke from the producers.
Come to think of it, I don’t think it’s wrong.
“… … Black.”
“Never mind the color. Somehow it happened like this.”
Contrary to what Mr. Kerondil said with a hearty laugh, I couldn’t help but smile when I saw the contents on the plate I brought.
can’t laugh
Black boiling liquid.
“Let me ask you a question, sir? What is this?”
“Don’t you see? Aren’t you Stew?”
“Which neighborhood stew is this black?”
To put it mildly, it’s a visual that’s close to melting asphalt.
(No matter how many times I look at it, that man’s work is a spectacle… Even wild dogs in the demon realm won’t eat something like that.)
It’s been certified by the devil, so it’s real.
“If you want to achieve effects such as increasing your physical strength and expanding your magic path, you have to sacrifice some flavor and aroma.”
“This isn’t a sacrifice, it’s called a catastrophe.”
Incidentally, in the game days, after eating this, the player character barely woke up that night.
Is it a historical evidence of why time becomes night when we only eat one meal?
“Aren’t you going to eat?”
“Eat to eat! damn it!”
The sad thing is that it really works great.
Let me swallow the tears and finally drink the unknown liquid.
“Ugh… … .”
It is felt.
All kinds of toxic immunity and digestive system skills screaming.
My tolerance, which doesn’t hurt even if I eat weeds raw, is trying to get a red card.
“draft”
《Class: Warlock》
《Class Level: 34》
《Stamina: 291》《Magic Power: 465》《Agility: 227》《Luck: 154》
《Physical Defense: 14》《Magical Defense: 20》《Mental Resistance: 30》
《Plant tolerance: 25》
《Remaining Skill Points: 24pt》
Instead, the effect is certain.
Eating garbage similar to rice increases your ability! damn it!
“okay! Looking at the veins, it seems to be working!”
“Please, if you have eaten, try to check the other person’s reaction with your sense of taste, not your senses! a little!”
Incidentally, another test bed I deliberately brought in today… … .
“… … .”
no words already
It must have already been wrong to hold a spoon as if it was burnt white.
Well, Elcia’s status should have gone up, so when she opens her eyes again, she’ll have a rather complicated expression.
“It seems the young lady is also impressed.”
“I don’t usually call it moving when I pass out with my eyes closed.”
now you know miss?
Commoners usually live like this.
* * *
“draft? How were you able to stay conscious?”
“Because the level of tolerance is different. So what is the effect?”
“… … Feeling the power rising makes me speechless.”
Elcia, who checked her senses by opening and closing her hands, sighed with a complicated expression.
“What the hell is Lord Cherondil doing?”
“Putting aside his old career, it’s real that he cares for his kids.”
That old man’s research will shine someday, but that will be much later.
“Certainly Xian, you usually act like this… … Did you increase your strength?”
“Well, besides that, I wandered around the academy, intervened hard, and ate beans.”
In addition, there are several events.
Like the new drugs being tested at the alchemist faculty.
Like going to the aura class to find spoiled idiots and deliberately making them quarrel and beat them up.
“Elcia, you wondered how I improve my skills, right?”
Maybe she thought of something more special.
different. I shook my head and declared.
“There is no difference. You and I are just attending the same academy.”
“Is it the same place?”
“If you still think there is a difference, this is what you saw today.”
I glanced sideways at the restaurant building we left behind.
“How many times do you look back at what is there in the same place? Who do you get to know, talk to, and get help from?”
While attending the same academy, I find things that can make me stronger even a little bit and use all the little things.
“Elcia, you should look around.”
“… … What do you mean?”
“lets think.”
If everything is taught, advice is meaningless.
“Follow me if you are willing to look back with me.”
“… … i get it.”
Elcia paused for a moment as if she was struggling, then answered.
“Where are you going next?”
“Some guys asked me to try out a new combat training device. Well, since you ate, shouldn’t you move moderately?”
“… … Be prepared.”
No, that uncle’s rice is strange. The others aren’t so terrible.
Seeing Elcia speak with a stiff face as if she were accompanying her limbs, I sighed and gestured.
“Once I go around like that, I’ll stop by somewhere else for a while around sunset.”
“different place?”
“… … It’s not a place to take a lady. You probably don’t even know where it is.”
There is no need to hide it anyway.
“The black market.”
It would be better to teach him clearly while he is walking around.
The secret to living this damn academy to the fullest.
* * *
“Do you go to places like the black market?”
“It’s perfect when you’re looking for something that’s hard to find.”
In particular, the easiest to obtain are elixirs and precious materials for manufacturing them.
“In order to build a strong body and increase mana affinity, you need appropriate medicine.”
“… … indeed.”
Elcia nodded her head, saying that it made sense.
Various elixirs that increase the affinity between strength and mana are surprisingly familiar to students.
This is because there are classes that teach people how to take medicine and control it in classes that are essential for handling mana, such as auras and magic.
“Well, at most the medicines that the academy gives out from time to time increase mana affinity slightly.”
Other than that, you’ll find it and use it at your own discretion.
“Elcia, are you like that too?”
“I’m not proud of it, but I’m using various things sent by my family.”
It seems that she is even giving some away to the students of the clique she is close with.
“I’m very envious.”
“Then you just have to come under me.”
“No, I just said it.”
Actually, I’m not envious at all.
“If it’s medicine, I’ll get tired of it. … … No, it’s a bit strange to say that.”
“Could you make the elixir yourself?”
“A fairly simple thing.”
I am steadily making and taking the materials that are easy to obtain.
Well, it is true that the number of times has decreased compared to before.
This is because elixirs have a limited number of uses. Each type of elixir has a resistance level.
For example, in the case of a medicine that increases stamina by 1, it is difficult to expect any more effects after raising the total stats by 50.
Of course, I expected it to change after it became a reality, but the tolerance level still existed.
“Getting powerful and diverse elixirs was my homework to become stronger.”
“Xian, is the place you are going to solve that?”
“That’s how it is.”
The place I headed was the black market located in the slums.
It seemed that Elcia, who followed me, was also treated as a guest and let me through for now.
“The black market?! I heard rumors, but I never thought it would come in like this.”
“Unexpectedly, you’re dull with news like this.”
Even if she looked like that, she was a young girl from a prestigious family. There is no reason to come to the slum, and there is no reason for anyone to talk about the existence of the black market in front of her.
“What are you selling? Is it a different place than the shopping street in the island?”
“what… … Roughly this or that.”
Maybe if I told you all about the black market, it would be annoying, so I glossed over it.
“I’m going to finish my business quickly and go. I’ve already told you what to buy, so just check it… … .”
“what? It sounds pretty disappointing.”
Seeing the owner of the voice who casually interrupted, I just shrugged my shoulders and looked away.
Naturally, the culprit, Linell, spoke with a tone of regret.
Linel Milliquel, the mistress of this black market.
“There is nothing more shameful than sending a guest away quickly. If possible, I would like to stay longer before going.”
“It’s just a caution not to go shopping for a long time.”
The moment men enter the mart, they have a debuff that reduces their physical strength by 1/10.
(Ah~ that woman is here again. Xian, will this noona kick you out?)
‘It’s okay, don’t interfere. If you stick out, it’ll be a headache.’
I forcibly blocked Emily, who wanted to come out immediately, as if she was annoyed by Linel’s appearance.
For some reason, whenever I came to the black market, Linel often came out to greet me.
Every time, for some reason, Emily was dumbfounded.
(Because you can see the inside just by looking at it.)
‘He must have thought that he would be a beneficial guest if he was moderately favored.’
(…is that what you mean by pretending not to know?)
Or how
As a result of the fire, he firmly begged Emily to stay calm today, and Linel, unaware of her intentions, stayed right next to her.
At some point, he naturally embraces my arms and guides me.
If that’s the case, anyone who sees you will know you’re a regular.
“Sometimes I want to recommend other things. How about taking a little more time? draft.”
“Well~ sooner or later, when I can afford it.”
“Sounds rude, though. Are you free?”
“Is it exam period? you know.”
“Ah~ It’s about a test, so it’s okay to take it in moderation. You still don’t know that life isn’t everything.”
You see this girl’s life too raw.
“If you’re curious about the fun in life, it doesn’t matter if we take a little longer to talk.”
No, are you not working?
“It’s not that I’m not interested, but Mr. Linel, I have friends with me today.”
“A friend… … . no wonder. So it was. I was surprised when I heard the report.”
It was only then that Linel turned his gaze to Elcia, who had been quietly watching this scene.
It was clear that he was deliberately pretending not to notice.
Could it be that you couldn’t see
“Sian had an eccentric friend. A girl from the Lyoleites. … … It’s a big deal. I have nothing to treat.”
“I just followed Xian. never mind. Linel Milliquel.”
It doesn’t look like a first impression.
That’s right, Liolet or Millikel, after all, the nobility of the empire.
There are probably plenty of places to meet face to face elsewhere.
‘Come to think of it, the relationship between the Lyoleate family and the Myrikel family was subtle.’
It would not have been a hostile faction.
But it doesn’t seem like a friendly relationship.
“I can’t believe Millikel Corporation… … Is there not enough people for Sanghoeju to greet guests directly?”
“I don’t know about the ignorant lady, but there are times when you have to talk directly with important guests.”
From noble mtl dot com
“Right. Is Xian an important guest?”
“What do you want to say? The ignorant girl of the Lyoleites?”
I’m on bad terms.
Was it a mistake to bring it? However, I soon got annoyed and decided to just ignore it.
Let’s finish the matter quickly.
When I was about to leave first, Linel put off arguing with Elcia and came after me.
“… … My dear, I’ll give you some advice, but you’d better give up on the Lady of the House of Liolet.”
“What are you talking about. You didn’t bring me here to play tricks, did you?”
“I’m just saying that because I’m worried. First of all, you are a valuable guest. Maybe you don’t know, but going to lyoleate is dangerous.”
It would be advice given out of sincere concern, not restraint.
“Remember. draft. The scariest thing isn’t the guys who roar in the dark.”
“You want to say that the scariest and most venomous thing is a villain who thrives in the sun, right?”
can you not know Linell said the warning he was about to say first.
