Episode 132
-W, winning streak?
Lars’ mouth opened as if it were about to tear.
“Oh, there was a winning streak.”
Raon looked at the message and shook his head. The additional reward for winning streak seemed to apply this time as well.
“Don’t be so nervous. After all, it’s just a few abilities that go up.”
At the time of 4 consecutive wins, the strength, agility, and stamina stats increased by 1 to 2 points. It would be at that level again this time, so it wasn’t a huge reward.
– Even so, isn’t it all abilities that come from the main body of the main king?
“Let’s think of food, food.”
-.
Lars licked his lips as if he couldn’t help it.
[All stats increase by 2 points as an additional reward.]
“uh?”
-Mo, all abilities?

Not individual stats, but Raon and Lars both opened their eyes at the increase in all stats. But the message wasn’t all there.
[The achievement of both traits increases as an additional reward.]
Thanks to the winning streak, it seems that the rewards that originally had to increase the rank of one attribute have been increased to two. It seemed that the reward for winning a streak jumped big every 5 units.
“I like it.”
Raon smiled softly as she saw the disappearing message. Raising the achievement of a trait takes a long time even with the system. It was a reward that far exceeded expectations to raise the rank of such a characteristic by two.
-Why, why is this characteristic?
Lars shook his head as if incomprehensible.
-All the stats alone are anger, so why raise the attribute’s rank!
“You said it.”
Raon waved his hand to suppress Las’s chill rising like flames.
“The perfect system does its best to make the owner strong. It’s like that this time too.”
Lars recites what he usually said as if he was proud of himself.
– Well, it’s not this. Had I known there would be such an extra reward, I wouldn’t have admitted defeat so easily!
“Isn’t the person who forgot that the problem? You knew there was a winning streak.”
-Ouch… .
Lars couldn’t find anything to say and gritted his teeth.
Raon put anticipation on his lips and waited for the message to come to mind.
[The level of stealth has increased.]
[Glassia’s rank has increased.]
“uh?”
Raon swallowed dry saliva. Aside from sneak attack, I never dreamed that the grade of Glacier I had just acquired would rise.
Doo Woong.
I immediately closed my eyes and opened the sea of senses.
‘Crazy.’
The range of the sea of sensations was wider than it had last felt, and the waves became purer. Not only the inside of this dorm, but also the people outside could feel what they were doing.
Burrr!
A huge tidal wave rose in front of me. It was obvious who it was.
– Whoa… .
When I opened my eyes, as expected, Lars was causing tremendous coldness and rage.
Whoa!
A wave of cold that exploded like a volcano wrapped around Raon’s whole body like a snake.
-Today, I will stop you from breathing!
“It would be better not to. Are you going to spread your skills again?”
Raon gave his sincere advice. His condition has not yet recovered. The danjeon was almost empty, his mind was blank, and his bones were sore. But even though I wanted to lose to the current Lars, I couldn’t.
– Shut up! I can swallow your empty bastard as it is!
With those words, Lars struck down a tidal wave of cold and fury that he had raised. A terrifying chill fell over his head and crushed his body and mind.
“Well… .”
Raon frowned. Even though the resistance to water property has increased, it is a cold feeling that will tear your skin. Clearly, Lars was also getting stronger as time went on.
‘However.’
The speed of development was superior to himself, and now he has the strongest shield. I want to lose, but I can’t
woo woo woo.
Raon held his breath and operated Glacier, which had risen to 2 stars. A wall of cold drawn in the image was erected in the mana circuit, blocking Lars’ cold.
Chi profit!
The cold air blocked the cold air, and the pain of crushing the flesh rapidly decreased. As the physical pain disappeared, the mental burden also decreased. If so, all day long. No, I could endure it for the rest of my life.
– Freeze! You swindler weasel!
Lars must have known that, but he was engulfed in anger and poured out endless chills.
‘When is it going to end?’
I felt a little sorry for him, so I kept my yawn in check and greeted him a little more.
I was going to persuade him after being patient, but within a few minutes, a message came up.
“Ah, my skill level has risen.”
– Whoops!
* * *
– Really?
Lars, who was also deprived of his ability, shuddered and trembled in anxiety.
‘okay. Because I promised.’
Leon nodded his head. Thanks to Lars, I got a lot of benefits, so I was able to fulfill as many promises as possible to eat.
I’m hungry too.
I hadn’t eaten anything for three days, so I was desperate to think of rice, even if it wasn’t Ras. I put on my coat and left the room.
“uh? young master!”
Dorian, who had brought a towel and water, opened his eyes.
“When did you wake up?”
“just now.”
“Is your body okay? You’ve been lying in bed for three days!”
“It’s a little dull, but it’s okay.”
He nodded and turned his arms around.
“I am so glad! The commander and I went to the recovery workers, it’s okay, I just told them not to touch them… .”
Dorian wiped his eyes with his sleeve and murmured that he could sleep with his feet stretched out. It seems that he continued to worry while he was down.
I was a little embarrassed to say thank you, so I just tapped him on the shoulder.
“But as soon as you wake up, where are you going?”
“My stomach was stuck to my back. I need to eat some rice.”
“let’s go together! It’s time for me to eat.”
He put the water down and stuck to the side.
“Oh, and don’t go out and be surprised.”
“What?”
“You will find out soon. huh.”
“What do you mean?”
– Ignore him. Go quickly and keep your promise to the main king.
When he tilted his head because he didn’t understand what he meant, Lars was clinging to him like a leech and waving his arm.
‘Because I know. Stop watching.’
Raon let out a small sigh and left the dormitory.
“It has been a long time since Mercury is so comfortable.”
“The best thing is that I can sleep better. I wish it were like this every day.”
“When that person wakes up, it’s all over.”
The inside of the castle was busier than usual. It seemed that the heat that overcame the wave was still there.
“So… uh?”
“Well?”
“Hey, that guy!”
Hearing the laughter of the soldiers, as we headed towards the branches of Frost, the noisy street became as quiet as a hand gripped it. All eyes of the people who had their mouths closed were on Raon.
“Laon!”
“Laon!”
“Did it happen!”
“Finally woke up! The hero of this wave!”
“Wow!”
Soldiers, knights, and prosecutors all rushed to Raon’s side and cheered. A real smile with eyes and mouth moving together. Everyone here was genuinely happy that he had woken up.
‘Why are you doing this?’
Raon narrowed his eyes. I just took the time to save the soldiers. I was embarrassed because I didn’t know why people I had only met face to face were so happy.
“Raon is still sick! Everyone get away!”
A familiar voice was heard amidst the stinging cheers. it’s terrian He grabbed his arm and bit the soldiers.
“Haw!”
“Oh, I see!”
“Laon! Please recover and accept my drink!”
“Thank you for saving my colleagues!”
“I will definitely repay this favor someday!”
As the soldiers retreated, they left a word of greeting. Saying thank you or telling you to recover quickly were all words of concern for yourself.
“You are still the same.”
Terian looked at Raon, who narrowed his brow, and smiled.
“Yes?”
“I don’t understand why the infantry, knights, and swordsmen you didn’t know were so worried and cheering for you?”
Leon nodded his head. Because I didn’t think it was such a big deal to block the way to save the soldiers.
“There were quite a few scouts who fell under the walls, but most of them had nothing to do with you. Among them, there was a swordsman who ignored you.”
He continued as he watched the soldiers shouting Raon’s name.
“But you didn’t turn away from any of them, and you took up your sword and built a wall for everyone. A hero who risked his life for the soldiers who even gave up on the commander and blocked the way. If you are not attracted to such a man, you do not deserve to be in Habun Castle.”
Terian’s eyes gleamed blue. It seemed that he was no exception to the saying that the warriors of Habun Castle were attracted to the hero.
“This is a thank you from the deputy commander.”
He lowered his head slowly.
“Laon. Thank you for saving our soldiers. In the future, I will repay you for this favor any time you want.”
He made eye contact with Terian who raised his face. A smile of will. It was a sincere laugh.
“me too! I will help too!”
“Call me anytime!”
“Laon! I’ll help too! Helpful or not, go!”
“I’ll go if I can help too.”

Not only the soldiers, knights, and scouts, but also the swordsmen of the sniper squad raised their hands to just call.
“under… .”
Raon took a deep breath. My heart is as hot as it burns.
This was the scene I wanted to see when I came here. During or after a fight, everyone seems to be united. When you experience it yourself, your heart beats with heat. one more emotion. It felt like I had gained the driving force to live in this world.
He smiled faintly as he saw the soldiers and knights shouting his name.
-… aren’t you going
* * *
Raon left behind the cheers of the people at Lars’ urging and entered the Branch of Frost. Inside, there was a lot of commotion, such as whether to buy food, to offer alcohol, or to eat for free for the rest of your life.
“Is this what you said earlier?”
“Yes. It was more than I expected.”
Dorian clapped his hand and sighed.
“Inspector! Are you okay now?”
A toddler came running from the kitchen with his bald head fluttering.
“okay.”
“What a relief. I was looking for it!”
“Did you come?”
“yes. I brought porridge, but I couldn’t eat it.”
“I ate that!”
Dorian smiled and raised his hand.
“Anyway, thank you.”
“no. Regular maintenance is essential.”
The toddler smiled and put down the menu board. Seriously or jokingly, he only looked cute when he said that.
“What would you like to eat today?”
“With apple meat pie I haven’t eaten before… .”
– Whoa!
As soon as the word apple meat pie came out, Lars took a deep breath. It was a breath full of anticipation.
“Oh, I’m sorry.”
The toddler wrinkled his eyes.
“Right now, the apples have run out, so the Apple Meat Pie is out of stock.”
“No?”
“Yes. After the wave, a lot of customers came.”
-uh? what?
Lars’ eyes widened. Seeing my mouth trembled, I felt like I was about to explode again.
“Then what about pineapple pizza?”
“It’s not me… .”
The infant’s gaze turned to Dorian.
– Daddy, ask me quickly! Bonwang’s No. 1 subordinate must have pineapples and apples!
Lars couldn’t give up his expectations and looked at Dorian with eyes full of enthusiasm.
“Unfortunately, neither is available.”
Dorian shrugged.
“To celebrate the end of the wave, I sprinkled pineapple cookies and they all fell off.”
“Apple?”
“You gave Raon-sama and the scouts a snack a while ago.”
Hearing those words, I remembered the yellow apple he had given me before. He said it was good in the morning and gave him an apology every time.
“If apples and pineapples keep coming out of your pocket, it’s unlikely.”
Dorian grinned, scratching his stomach pocket. It was absurd to hear the word probable coming out of this guy’s mouth.
“Are rocks and logs okay?”
“It’s something we use often. It is essential!”
“her… .”
Laon blew the wind away. There was something big wrong with Dorian’s common sense.
‘A strange guy… .’
– What a useless bastard!
Lars glared at Dorian and clenched his teeth. No. 1 subordinate, throw it away in an instant.
-Apple Meat Pie, Pineapple Pizza, Pineapple Cookie. Not all three? This can’t be! This can’t be real!
There was a loud scream in Lars’ voice.
– What are you going to do?
‘This is unavoidable. What do you do with no ingredients?’
– The king doesn’t know that. If you make a promise, keep it!
‘Stay still.’
Pushing Lars’ ringing ears, he looked at the infant.
“Then what do you have now?”
“There is a knight official, a prosecutor official, and a scout official. It can also be basic whole roasting.”
“Then a scout formality… .
-Scrambled eggs on bread, stews and grilled meats! Ordinary and boring food! The thing the main king hates the most is the set meal!
Lars screamed and inflated his body like a puffer fish. Normally, I wouldn’t care what he did, but today, when his abilities and characteristics were taken away, he was as small as a baby pufferfish, so it was a bit pitiful.
‘I can’t help it.’
Raon realized that today was the time to use the secret weapon she had hidden.
‘Then how about this?’
– Shut up! The king’s appetite for gourmet is not so easily resolved… .
‘I still have some marbled ice cream from Runan.’
-uh?
Rath’s sharp thorns of cold were rolled into a circle.
‘You know that. Runan gave me ice cream when he left. It’s still there.’
– Goo, bead ice cream… .
The focus returned to Lars’ eyes, which had been dyed with madness.
‘As far as I know, among them mint chocolate… .’
– Mint Choco!
As soon as he said the mint chocolate, cold air erupted from Lars’ mouth like bamboo. It was an automatic reflex reaction.
– Big, big.
Lars closed his mouth, which seemed to be dripping with saliva, and coughed in embarrassment.
-that… .
‘Well?’
-Would you like to eat two?
The guy raised two fingers in a calm voice that had all his anger resolved.
What is a gourmet?
Raon fell into deep agony.
* * *
Milland and the officers were in the commander’s office organizing the post-Wave situation.
“Since Raon has risen, how about holding a festival for a day or so?”
“I agree. I’ve been resting for a while, so I think it’d be good to give it a rest for just one day.”
“If you give Raon a commendation on that day, you will be able to raise the morale of the soldiers to the highest level. No matter what anyone says, the hero of Habun Castle is Raon.”
Raon’s name kept coming out of the executives’ mouths. It was a soft voice, as if there was a lot of affection.
“It’s a festival, so it’ll be fine in a day or so.”
Milland nodded. When the wave ends, no monsters attack for a while. Raon was awake, so it would be good to enjoy the festival for a day or so.
“Then the festival will be handled by Charles, and the prize for Raon… .”
The door to the commander’s office shattered open as he was about to speak on the next agenda. It was Keyzen, the 2nd scout commander who went out on reconnaissance.
“Sah, Commander!”
Kizen grabbed the door and shook his chin. It was the first time that he, the most courageous of the reconnaissance team, showed such an appearance.
“you. What the hell did you see… .”
“Lo, Lord! The Ice Troll Lord has appeared!”
A heavy silence fell in the commander’s room, which had been filled with joy at those eerie words.
