32 – Pestilence – 1

“Suck!”

In the game, warriors take on the roles of tanks and melee dealers. Although his tanking ability is weaker than that of a knight, he could become a better tanker than a knight depending on the control in various ways, such as various types of checkers using sword winds and defensive skills such as Crying’s roar and stone skin.

Of course, I am also a deceased person, and I was able to fully take on the role of a warrior because I was used to this world.

Even if you can’t use the ultimate.

“Muscle!!”

After holding off an ice spirit by blowing a sword wind using moonlight, he pierced the moonlight into the ground and posed.

It is a muscle barrier that fits the concept of a warrior who reveres muscles.

“Ha-ap! Hap! Ha-a-ab!”

The Ice Wolf, who was charging at the skill that can create three barriers by taking three stances, bounced off and fell. The subsequent Ice Elemental’s ice bullet also only broke the barrier, but the last barrier was not broken.

“Let the light settle here!!”

While I was dragging aggro and being attacked by enemies, Veronica’s attack pierced Ice Elemental’s body. The moment the ice elemental hit by the spear filled with holy light shrank with a grotesque scream.

“Firefield!!”

The fire poured down on the huddled enemies.

Oh, that’s advanced magic. Lucille seems to have a knack for fire-type magic.

“Ha… ha… ha…”

Could it be because Lucille, who is still only at an intermediate level, overreacted and used advanced magic? She collapsed as her enemies melted away, whitewashed.

It seems that he has used up all his magic power. After confirming that there were no more enemies around with the Enemy Detection skill, I spoke to Veronica.

“Let’s get some rest.”

“already?”

In the system of the game, the more you fight, the more stress increases. In addition, mental and physical management are essential.

Of course, a character with a high level can endure with potions without rest until the end of a dungeon.

Me and Veronica are accustomed to combat and should have no problems in dungeons, but Lucille isn’t very experienced, so we have to adjust to that.

“Tsk.”

Veronica clicked her tongue briefly as if she thought she had caught her ankle. But I didn’t put up with my opinion anymore, so we were able to rest for a while in one place.

“I-I’m fine…”

“There is no need to overdo it.”

The reason I came to this dungeon was to improve Lucille’s abilities. If I overdo it and then retire, or if a problem arises, it’s not the end of the story.

I put my hand on Lucille’s head, who was sitting quietly.

“Let’s see…”

“What are you doing?”

“Magic distribution.”

Magic Distribution, an alchemist’s skill, is the only magic recovery skill in the game that can give the caster’s magic to the target.

Of course, you can feed them magic recovery potions that alchemists can make, but taking that will increase your stress, so if you’re not used to it, this is better.

“S-Master…”

“I’m fine.”

Of course, due to the nature of the fraudulent character Sage, his stats are considerably superior to other characters, but there are limits.

Even so, Lucille seemed quite embarrassed that I was sharing my magic power.

“Stay still.”

I put my hand on Lucille’s head and immediately used the skill. Magical power transferred to her as she stroked her hair as soft as silk, and Lucille’s face gradually regained her complexion.

“Why are you looking at me like that?”

“…not really.”

Veronica narrowed her eyes and put on a dissatisfied expression.

“Are you lacking in magic too?”

If the healer lacks mana, you have to take care of it.

What could be more important than taking care of healers in a dungeon?

“S-Master?!”

“Yes?”

“What are you eating right now…”

“Ah. Is this?”

I showed the blue light potion I took out of my bag.

“It’s a magic recovery potion.”

I opened the stopper and poured the blue potion into my mouth. Along with the terrible taste that seemed to make my tongue go round, the effect of magic recovery was causing me to feel so much pain that my whole body was twisted.

“Tongue, Hyunwoo?!”

“Turn it off…”

But I’m used to this kind of pain.

I think my mental strength and stress levels have risen quite a bit. What. I have no problem with this much.

“Whoa… good.”

“Joe, that’s not good!!”

“Master! Are you okay?!”

After enjoying the disadvantages of the magic recovery potion, I came to my senses and spoke.

Of course it’s okay.

“Now. Then, Veronica. You should also distribute your magical energy…”

“Gwa, are you okay?!”

When I went to catch the demon king, it was more desperate than this.

Also, the penalty for consuming the magic recovery potion was worth bearing.

compared to the failure to achieve the goal.

“…what the heck… was it? Master…?”

“…I heard that it was quite severe. The journey to defeat the demon lord.”

At Veronica’s muttering, Lucille stared blankly at me and then lowered her head.

“sorry.”

“Yes?”

“Because I’m lacking… If I had been better at ice magic… Master wouldn’t have to suffer like this.”

“Princess.”

I laughed at her sullen reaction.

“Originally, a disciple must rely on his master until he grows up.”

“Ha, but.”

“If the princess grows up as a magician, as a country’s princess, and as my disciple, there will be nothing more enjoyable for me than that.”

“that…”

“All I want is that.”

okay. All I want from Lucille is that. To grow properly and achieve the S-class teacher achievement.

I spoke seriously, holding Lucille’s hand, and she stared blankly at me before giving a slight nod.

“I will work hard.”

“good.”

Will this make it grow faster? Confirming Lucille’s determination, I turned to Veronica.

“Hey. Magical power…”

“…I don’t need it. I’ll take care of the magic recovery myself.”

“Don’t overdo it and just take it?”

I put my hand on Veronica’s head. She raised her hand to cut it off, but I snatched it lightly.

“ah.”

A white hand is held in my hand, and the other hand caresses my silver hair. Veronica, who was looking up at me with a reddened face and biting her lip, eventually calmly received my magic, and after giving some of my magic, I caught the moonlight.

“You’ve used quite a bit of mana too. Don’t be afraid to tell me if you don’t have enough mana.”

“…..”

“…”

“Answer?”

“Okay.”

“yes…”

great. That should be enough.

I took out the sandwich I made this morning from my bag, thinking that it would be better to eat while I was resting.

When I took out the sandwiches in the small basket and handed them out one by one, the two accepted them without saying anything and started messing around.

“It’s made with hard work, so eat it up.”

Eating delicious food temporarily increases your stats.

The Ice Golem isn’t a very strong enemy, but it’s not uncommon for the party to be wiped out after being careless in this game, so it’s better to be prepared as much as possible.

“During the hero’s journey… this kind of thing. Did Master take care of everything?”

“It’s like that.”

“It must have been difficult.”

“hahaha. Compared to now, that’s the way it is.”

Now that most of the skills have been raised to a certain level, it’s a bit comfortable, but in the past it wasn’t like that, it was quite difficult.

When I think of the fact that the warriors’ party kids almost got sick while raising their skills and making achievements during the main story, I feel dizzy.

Compared to that level, it’s just cute now.

“I see… Even though I am Master’s disciple, I don’t seem to know much about Master yet.”

“Well, I know most of them.”

Veronica spat out a word, and Lucille stared at her. But either way, after finishing the sandwich, Veronica just smiled and held my hand lightly.

“It was really hard. Even when I saw it from the side. Talking about the old days reminds me of that time. We slept together.”

“Oh, you slept together?!”

“Whoop. When the sage tries to increase his holy power… whoop whoop.”

It seems meaningful because of the reduction of words, but in fact, there is nothing special. It’s just that Veronica stayed next to me while I was working to increase my holy power in front of the statue and slept with her.

But Lucille was staring at me and Veronica alternately, with a pouty face as if she was slightly offended.

“We slept together, but nothing happened. You dozed off next to me, and I kept meditating.”

“Ugh. Hey! That, if you say that…”

“Haaa…”

“Come on. Let’s go soon.”

I blew a balm on Veronica’s forehead and stood up. Finally, as if relieved, Lucille sighed, and Veronica pursed her lips.

“Now that we only have to deal with the Ice Golem, let’s grab it and go. The opponent is…”

“Do I keep attacking while Master holds you?”

“Yes. You know well. Then let’s go.”

Defeating the dungeon’s boss, the Ice Golem, wasn’t too difficult.

I thoroughly managed aggro and continued to use worm magic, and Veronica skillfully caught the ice elemental summoned by the ice golem while recovering.

And Lucille also fought using her magic efficiently, so she was able to defeat the Ice Golem without difficulty.

-Koo-gu-gu-goo!!

The large ice block of the golem collapsed, and on top of the wreckage, a softly shining white hexagonal ice appeared.

That is Eternal Ice, a requested item from the church.

Putting it in the box I got from the church, I pushed Lucille when the box appeared as a reward for clearing the dungeon.

“Yes?”

“Open.”

“Uh… can I do it?”

“Because that’s what I came for.”

With my permission, Lucille carefully opened the box. Then, the white light inside the box penetrated into her body.

“Inside… there’s one of these.”

Inside the box was a small bracelet. It is an equipment that increases the power of ice magic.

Lucille seemed slightly disappointed that the value wasn’t that high, but that wasn’t the point.

“It’s important to open the box. In the process, your affinity for ice will increase.”

“okay…”

“Then let’s go out and try ice magic.”

A small door was made at the end of the dungeon. When we headed there, we were able to move directly to the entrance of the dungeon, and the adventurers waiting outside shouted when they saw us come out.

“Hey! Sage!”

what? It’s a different look than I expected.

The adventurers who thought they would be just chilling out were holding weapons and holding someone in check.

“That’s…”

Beautiful women with long ears.

Women who look similar to Evangeline who once walked with me.

They were elves.

Among them, a beauty with purple eyes and long ears, brown skin and heavily exposed armor strode towards me and stared at me with arrogant eyes.

“Are you a sage?”

“Who are you?”

“I’m Lorelia, leader of the Wings of Light tribe in the forest of elves.”

Lack of Wings of Light?

Evangeline’s tribe over there?

“therefore?”

“Sage. I will propose to you.”

“It’s a proposal and something… To be honest, I don’t want to get involved with the elves.”

Most of the elves are arrogant and have a good conscience, so it’s tiring to get involved.

look Even though I’m reluctant, that exhibitionist Dark Elf speaks on his own…

“A plague is circulating in the forest of elves. The sage who knows everything. If you do, you know how to solve the plague, right?”

“Of course I know. Let’s go. Let’s go.”

I couldn’t believe the plague disposal event was already happening.

This is an achievement, so of course you have to do it.
