Chapter 162
#One
It was really strange.
persuade?
tell me not to f*ck
He has experienced a lot of what happened to those who committed illegal acts at the academy.
Professor Trevor was an idealist.
With what power, with what power, did he protect himself when he had just been appointed?
so he ran away
Even if you fell from a high place, there was a way to survive somehow.
“… … Where are you?”
When he opened the window and ran away, the world felt strange.
Green plants tightly wrapped around the tower of the academy.
As if a place where human footprints had been cut off for a long time, it turned into a place covered with bizarre plants.
Chesthip, who landed safely with various magics, slowly looked around.
It didn’t feel popular.
The academy, which should have been crowded, was quiet.
“Was there a place like this in the academy?”
＜■■■■■■＞
What did Professor Trevor say?
I can’t remember, but I’ll have to get out of here first.
He moved aimlessly.
I moved quickly to get out of the academy.
It was a really, really strange place.
The grass grew up to my ankles, and the huge fence… … .
“what’s this. X feet.”
The round outer wall of the academy.
Chesthip, who was about to cross over there, was horrified.
The clear sky, which should have been visible beyond the walls, was not visible.
What filled his field of vision was a huge tree.
Like the huge green trunk described in ＜Jack and the Beanstalk＞, a maroon tree reaching into the sky.
In the dull dark green world, the solid shield that usually protected them has become a prison.
Trees that do not know how far they have risen filled the outer wall.
Chesthip moved closer to the tree as if possessed.
Then he quietly put his hand on the outer wall.
[Come here. New gardener.]
“… … Who are you?”
[I am a gardener. Become my gardener and deal with the intruders.]
“X. What does your gardener know?”
[Those you hate also enter to ruin my garden.]
“… … .”
[I will give you the strength to defeat him. So that no one can look down on you.]
“How can you believe that?”
[It’s like living. It is a path that must always be practiced with doubt and struggle-.]
How pitiful are these lives?
I heard someone’s sneer.
shruck-.
A small decision was visible in front of him who was flustered.
The tree branches moved by themselves, and the decision presented to Chesthip.
Inside that crystal, I felt a huge amount of mana.
Wizards live their lives making every effort to increase mana.
Potions, meditation, and other methods.
[Don’t present. It is my little sincerity.]
“under… … .”
Almost the same amount of mana that Chesthip has accumulated so far.
If you can absorb everything, you will be able to overcome the wall and reach a higher level.
He carefully held the magic stone and absorbed mana.
It was absorbed very slowly, but it was palpable.
The mana that a person would have to build up over several years would come rushing in in just a few minutes.
An exhilarating, ecstatic feeling of satisfaction spread throughout his body.
Every time he breathed, the scent of mana spread from inside.
“Haaa-.”
Taking a deep breath, Chesthip tried moving Mana.
ah yes this is it
I wanted this kind of power.
I didn’t want life as a slave to that goddamn professor, I wanted to get stronger this fast!
“… … Can I get out of here?”
[If you catch the intruder, I will make you a hero of the world.]
“How strong can I be?”
[As much as you want.]
Squeeze-.
One more magic stone appeared.
Chesthip grabbed it and said.
“good. Where should I go?”
#2
strange room.
Black and White welcomed a special guest today.
Chained to the tower, years spent with solitude.
Where there were only two people, there are two outsiders.
Whenever they came, the two did not hide their delight.
Always only Manus came, but this time only a small girl appeared.
Black got up and greeted the woman.
“welcome. You came alone today. The name… … .”
“This is Kale. black.”
“Your image has changed a lot. Kale.”
Cale laughed awkwardly.
Black politely guided her.
Today, the two of them were enjoying a board game, a chess game in which pieces moved with mana.
“customer? Uh, are you a girl today?”
“hello.”
“Okay kid, what are you doing today? What about Manus?”
Cale smiled quietly.
At the same time, he spoke in a confident and powerful tone.
Senior Manus doesn’t solve everything.
This time, you’ll have to procure the supplies you need for the party.
To do so, he did not absorb the magic stones he had collected from the previous exploration.
left r r r r r -.
Magic stones poured out of her subspace pouch.
“Did you collect all of this?”
“yes. If it’s a hat, I’ll get more. Even if it’s externally-.”
“Ha ha ha ha ha! This is a masterpiece!”
White laughed bitterly.
Manus is kale, but it was a masterpiece.
hearthstone.
It is a gift from the tower, and a curse.
It was possible to increase mana immediately, but in the end, it was an item that had no choice but to fall into desire.
A land ruled by the god of death.
What the residents left behind when they died was the instigation of desire and the manifestation of selfishness.
By the way, what is this girl?
“Magic stones are truly mysterious. is not it?”
“Magic stones are a means to become stronger, but they can also be corrupted. It fuels jealousy, selfishness, and the desire to be strong.”
White and Black helped one by one.
Cale took their words to heart.
selfishness and desire.
Emotions that Manus said you should always be vigilant about.
Cale had no desire for magic stones yet.
They distribute it fairly and become stronger, so there was no particular complaint.
The colleagues he trusted were probably the ones who would distribute a little more manastones for himself who had made various tools.
“are you okay. Not yet.”
“hehehe, that’s why I like you. So sir, what do you need?”
“Show me the things you can make.”
Cale set foot in this place on his own and produced items while thinking for himself.
An elixir that compensates for insufficient damage.
Nails, holy water, and oil that can respond to monsters’ unexpected actions.
Even a cursed doll that can block enemy attacks.
Kayle robbed all the magic stones and prepared an item.
My heart was filled with pride.
Now, if you properly distribute the items, you are ready.
I was looking forward to seeing what kind of expression he would make and welcome him.
[Interference confirmed.]
[Reward: When using the item, the effect is increased by 10%.]
[50% item penalty is removed.]
Meanwhile, Manus watched Cale approaching in the distance, seeing what changes she had undergone.
A face full of responsibility.
I felt the heart of putting down my own and caring for my colleagues.
“Kale! You are here!”
“Yeah, I’ve been waiting for a long time.”
“No, I thought I was preparing something… … Were you trying to prepare something like this?”
Cale nodded.
And by properly distributing the items, it was made to respond to emergencies.
After kindly completing the explanation she had heard from Black, she proudly looked at the group and said,
“Will this be enough?”
“By the way, did you get it with money?”
Suddenly, Melanie asked.
Cale shook his head and revealed the source.
I realized that it is better to share and understand each other’s feelings than to have secrets between colleagues.
There’s nothing wrong with being honest.
“I bought it for a magic stone. Shall I teach you?”
“Oh really? then… … All of this?”
“It’s nothing.”
Cale said so, but everyone’s eyes didn’t think so.
They know.
What does the magic stone that falls from the demon mean?
Anais looked at the items Cale had given him and said.
“I think we should increase the portion of kale a bit.”
“I know. Then let’s do this. By giving some of the magic stones to Cale, and Cale accepting our orders. how is it?”
“great.”
“agree! I agree! Is it a way to issue? Are you okay? Kale?”
She smiled brightly and nodded.
You take care of your party members.
It was a really rewarding and meaningful thing for Cale, who had no connections.
“Manus, don’t we have something like that?”
“We are pushing ahead with our skills.”
“Wow, isn’t that too much?”
“I’m in the third year, so I’m sure I won’t be pushed back by the first year.”
Tendons sprouted from Nia’s forehead.
It was very funny to see his cheeks protruding from his molars biting hard.
Manus smiled and quietly opened the subspace.
The items I made whenever I had a spare time were enough.
The two holy waters flew round and landed in the hands of Nia and Guillermo.
“I’ll give it to you when you need it. Then, let’s go.”
[Kyaung-!]
After Albion’s cry, they entered the garden.
#3
Manus, Nia, and Guillermo thoroughly investigated from the first to the fourth floor.
Four out of twelve hours had already passed, but there was no news.
Manus had a [Dux], but he deliberately didn’t use it.
The reason why it came up this time was because ‘Panzer’ was also farming.
Panzer, an artifact that should have been dropped many times in the original game.
Did the difficulty level go up, or is someone’s luck terribly lacking?
After four hours of farming, all that came out was a shield for Guillermo to use.
“Whoa- I’m really tired. Manus, shouldn’t we go up soon?”
“If you go up like this, you won’t be able to withstand the enemy’s attack.”
“You have Guillermo. still?”
Manus nodded.
When a new item appears, the strength of the enemies is adjusted accordingly.
A system like fate and fate of RPG games.
The watchmen we met in the garden were men with killer attacks.
Many players who did not wear a panzer screamed as they watched their characters being torn like paper.
Even thinking of the producers who would have laughed at them, it was a part that I had to farm and move on.
“Absolutely not. The lives of two people are precious to me.”
“Ugh… … yes i got it By the way, will the other team be okay?”
You won’t have to worry about that.
Because Melanie’s panzer is rather special.
Thinking that it would not be affected by any kind of attack made me feel relieved.
Manus cut it off, said ‘It’s okay’, and moved on.
Make sure to read from noble mtl dot com
Judging by the fact that they are joking around now, it seems that they have gotten used to the atmosphere of the garden and the demons.
So I’m going to start farming in earnest.
If your basic luck isn’t good, you should be able to improve that luck.
And in a very legal way too.
[Dux]
A faint light led Manus and his party.
This light was a signpost that would lead Manus in the direction he most wanted.
Come to think of it, around this time, there was a friend who awakened [Dux], maybe?
The steps of Manus, who moved without hesitation, were light.
What does he want at this moment?
It will be where the dim light reaches.
Somehow, some strange force kept making me think that Professor Trevor was a villain.
