73 – Giyeon brought on by Giyeon (1)

“Wow, what kind of commotion is this all of a sudden at night?”

“That’s right. If you’re going to pamper someone, don’t you have to let them know at least the bare minimum?”

“Let’s go! It’s the leader’s order, the leader’s order!”

“If you have time to move your mouth, let’s move these quickly!”

The people of Huma Village encouraged each other like that, moved all the items in the warehouse to the annex, and went out to bring the next item.

I went inside after making sure the villagers were going outside.

“You are very thorough, too.”

The leader who followed me asked.

“Is there any reason to hide your identity?”

“It’s not like that, but it’s better to have as few holes for information to escape as possible.”

I answered that and checked the items they had brought.

“I wondered what kind of ability he had to cover the entire village with a curse, but now I know.”

“Hmm? What do you mean?”

“These.”

I lifted the giant centipede’s skin with my fingers.

“It seems that the curse was maintained and amplified by using the thoughts left over from the corpse of the youkai kept in the village.”

“…… So, do I really have to throw them all away?”

The head asked with a serious face, like someone who had heard that the whiskey he was maturing had actually gone bad.

“No, maybe if I call the right person and say goodbye, it will be all right?”

“Good?”

“Oh, mistake. You can think of it as a ritual to call a priest.”

At my words, the head nodded as if she understood.

“By the way, is it okay to use the materials used to maintain the curse?”

“It’s okay.”

For me, it was better to do this.

Because I was able to more easily stimulate the dark attribute magic within my body.

“More than that, I’m worried about the facilities and tools, right?”

“Oh, don’t worry about that, you’ll be fine. Because management is always clean. Now, check it out for yourself if you want.”

I received a few tools from the leader and checked them.

‘It’s traditional.’

I got a rough idea of the shape of the village, but it seemed that this village tended to be a bit out of date.

“…… Are the tools too bad?”

She also said with an ambiguous expression that she had similar thoughts.

“It’s okay. I can’t do alchemy because it’s a tool like this, but I can make a single medicine instead.”

Ehh-

“If you can afford it, bring at least one basic alchemy tool into the village. It is important to keep traditions, but if you continue to reject the trend of the times like this, you will hear criticism.”

“…… Don’t be lenient.”

It must have been a shock to hear the sound, the head said in a lowered voice.

How much time did you spend ignoring the pouting head and checking the materials and tools?

The head is removed and the preparations for making the medicine are complete.

Tsk-

Looking at him, I clicked my tongue slightly.

‘I don’t know how the situation ended up like this.’

I asked them not to tell me about my true identity as one of the rewards for fixing the villagers, but I didn’t really expect it to be kept.

No, I was rather convinced that the information would spread out.

‘That’s okay.’

It didn’t matter that my alchemy skills were known.

No, I was planning to make a name for myself as a genius alchemist anyway, so rumors were welcome on the contrary.

The fact that I can handle shadows may also be known by rumors, but considering the various information I was supposed to receive as a reward, the corpses of all the monsters in the town, and one right, even that was fine.

But there was one thing that bothered me, like a thorn in my neck.

‘I’ve come into contact with a guy who might become a heroine.’

Strictly speaking, Erio was not a heroine, but a boss monster.

And all the main characters and heroines I’ve had conversations with so far were not me or Do Yu-jin, but a ghost.

But this time, since I met a student as Yujin Do, a student in the circle, my head was complicated.

Haa-

‘For now, it’s only right to think about a solution to this later.’

I sighed, tidied up my hair, put the various cores I took out of the bodies of the monsters here in a bowl, and mixed various ingredients to start the medicine.

No, to be honest, there were no restrictions whatsoever.

It is true that alchemy can cure arthrosis such as the palatal artery.

However, making an elixir of that level was still beyond my abilities, and there were no materials or facilities to make such a thing here.

So there was only one possible way for me from the beginning.

Chow-

‘I have to cover it with my body.’

◎ ◎ ◎

Once we finished making the medicine quickly, we needed a place to eat it.

I had to put all my energy into managing my energy, but I couldn’t do it anywhere.

“If that’s the case, there is a seniority room that I use, so I’ll use that.”

Well, fortunately, we were able to quickly decide on a location.

“Then I’ll take care of you.”

“Yes, trust me.”

After deciding on the location, I asked Erio not to allow anyone to enter the room.

After that, when I opened the door and tried to enter the leader’s training room.

“Over there!”

Shigure looked at me hesitantly and called out to me.

“…… I wish you well.”

“Yes.”

After giving Shigure a nod, he opened the door and went inside.

“Are you here?”

Then, in the space of two hours, I saw the head, whose face was quite haggard, looking at me with curious eyes that didn’t match his face.

“Okay, then what should I do now?”

“Nothing.”

After I said that, I handed him the white and black pills.

“All you have to do is take the white pill first and then the black pill. By the way, the white pill is a strong sleeping pill, so you will feel drowsy as soon as you take it, so take the black pill as soon as possible.”

“Sleeping pills…… I’m so sorry about this. I really wanted to see what your secret was.”

As expected, he didn’t think that I would cure myself purely with the power of medicine.

He was so sorry that he quickly swallowed two pills and lay down.

‘Speciality change, [Here, where darkness was born (7★)].’

As I watched him fall asleep, I quickly swapped talents and drew his powers.

Sug-

Just as a huge curtain covers a window that lets in light, something isolates this space and makes the already dark space even darker.

‘It’s better than I thought.’

A space created only for me, centered on me.

What can I say…… Standing in this space, perhaps because of my body’s familiarity with darkness, I even felt a sense of omnipotence.

My body and this space resonated with each other, and I felt all my abilities go up a few levels.

But what I wanted wasn’t such an increase in ability.

‘Yes, that’s great.’

I looked around the space around me and nodded.

‘It’s completely isolated from the outside world.’

Now, no matter what happened inside, people outside wouldn’t be able to feel anything.

Percussion-

From noble mtl dot com

‘Then let’s start working quickly.’

Douyu Jin placed his hand on the chest of the fallen leader.

Then, I condensed the shadow like a thread and inserted it into an important blood vessel.

Pu-wook-

The moment the needle of the shadow penetrated Doo-ryeong’s body, Dou-jin felt a large amount of magical energy moving violently inside his body like a storm, destroying the inside.

‘As I thought.’

Simply put, what Yujin Doh made by grinding the cores of numerous monsters was an elixir containing a large amount of dark-attribute mana.

An elixir that is so excellent that an ordinary person can raise their level by several levels.

However, for the head, who was barely suppressing the energy in his body, the elixir was nothing but a flame that could explode his body.

‘No, considering that the energy contained in the elixir is deeply permeated with the thoughts of the monster that stimulates the curse, is it worse?’

As soon as I took the elixir like this, it was to the point that I fell into the magic spell.

However, Doujin was satisfied.

Originally, the guys who would have kept the personality of the attribute of darkness and secretly hid all over the body, but now, not a single one of them was jumping out and running amok.

‘In other words, if I just deal with all the guys who are rampaging right now, it’s over.’

Chow-

Do Yoo-jin added strength to her hands.

Then, the needles of the shadows embedded in Dooryeong’s body unraveled into small threads like a skein of thread, and soon touched and mixed with the magic that spread all over the place.

Belatedly aware of my existence, he resisted to get away from me.

However, darkness is inherently ambiguous to clearly divide its boundaries, so once the boundaries become blurred and mixed, it is impossible to divide them again.

Because of this, a tug-of-war inevitably takes place in the current situation.

Of course, as I have a small amount of magic power, I cannot resist this guy with the combination of the phlegm and the great elixir.

But……

Kwaak-

As long as this guy is stepping into the darkness.

And as long as I have the characteristic of [Standing on the Edge of Darkness (9★)].

In this tug-of-war, there was no chance for him to win.

Shararak-!

Aiming at the blood duct filled with myriad dark threads running ferociously, it opened its mouth and bit hard.

Jureuk-

As Doujin started to devour his magical energy, black dead blood flowed from the head’s nose.

‘I’m a bit sorry.’

This method was the right way to save the head.

But looking at it differently, it was also a way for Doujin to use him as a kind of filter, absorbing the mana in his body without any side effects.

‘…… Well, good is good.’

After thinking about it, Jin Doo focused on absorbing his mana again.

It was also the first time Doujin had manipulated so many shadows simultaneously and in detail.

Originally, failure is a natural thing.

However, Doujin continues to use his Dark attribute talents to their fullest, and his excellent attributes of [Here, the place where darkness was born (7★)] And [He who stands at the edge of darkness (9★)] To the fullest. Overturned the failure in front of

‘A little more, a little more precise…… ‘

So Yoo-jin Do fell into a trance and focused on consuming the mana of the leader with the shadow.

In the process, the mana permeated into the bloodstream, the mana of the elixir, and even the mana originally possessed by the leader all flowed into Yoo-jin Do, so the work speed increased dramatically.

“Whoa…… “

Do Yoo-jin, who finally absorbed all the mana permeated by the curse, let out a light sigh as he escaped from selflessness.

[A large amount of Dark attribute magic has been absorbed.]

[Magic power increases massively.]

[Acquire 12430 EXP.]

[Daily EXP acquisition increased by 62 points.]

In front of Yujin Do, the system sent a message announcing success.

‘This is amazing.’

It was Doujin who had a terrible magical talent, but perhaps because it was dark magic, the amount of magical power he absorbed was much more than expected.

Ukssin-

But that’s why we couldn’t immediately respond to the problems that followed.

‘They followed me.’

There was definitely something that could be called personality in the curse, and there was definitely something that could be called the thought of a youkai in the elixir.

Even though Dou-jin knew him, he ate up the mana of the head without hesitation.

He did this because he thought it would be okay since the amount of mana absorbed was low, but the situation became a bit of a headache.

‘If I leave it as it is, I might end up getting the coin intoxication just like this man.’

When Do Yu-jin is agonizing over the remnants of curses and thoughts suppressed by her magical power.

[Feel the little dream fragments in your magic.]

[■■■■■ Responds.]

“Huh?”

An unexpected message appeared in front of Yujin Do.
