Episode 97

31. Dungeon Maker (2)

The restoration of the grudged ‘frosted’ underground village was in progress.

Starting from the areas separated on the map, except for the hut that will be used as the boss room, monsters were being placed mainly at the innermost village alumni and halls.

No matter how much the Iscariot Choir was, it was impossible to summon the Undead indefinitely.

First of all, it was created mainly for gremlins and low-class monsters belonging to the ‘harmless’ axis.

Even if it was a sudden project, it is surprising that it is cruising quite well.

‘Actually, the last triad was held in a hurry, but it was quite successful.’

It could be seen as a kind of jinx.

Anyway, I left the dungeon creation to the Iscariot Choir and the Heretic Judgment Bureau, led by Yelia.

I also had a few things I had to prepare myself.

As part of that preparatory activity-

I found Iliana’s Alchemy Workshop located in the Basalt Forest.

“Sanwoo, are you busy these days?”

Illyana, who was making the potion, spit out.

“Yes? Well… I’m a little busy.”

I asked you to make a potion, but I couldn’t reveal the details.

I glanced around at Iliana.

“That’s right. I can’t see it well either in the forest or in the dormitory.”

“Did you come to find me?”

“yes.”

“Ahh.”

Apparently, recently, he was almost residing in an underground village.

The immortal core was successfully established, but the Iscarriot Choir needed sacrifices to create the undead.

They create monsters by replacing their divine power with magic.

So I had to constantly replenish my divine power.

The problem is that since he became an undead, if he supplemented his divine power in a normal way, he would suffer from pain rather than replenishment.

So, they supplement the divine power by eating the food blessed by Canaan.

That was really funny.

The undead, who do not have to eat food, get their nutrients from food.

So I was carrying the ‘blessed’ food provided by the Heretical Judgment Office to the basement every day.

Of course it’s bound to be busy.

“Aren’t you curious why you came to find me?”

I just flick it through, and Illyana looks at me with a puzzled expression.

“It’s because I’m bored.”

“How did know.”

Now, he has reached the point of grasping the intentions of this half-artel girl.

The mystical impression of the first time disappeared all of a sudden.

Now it just feels like a stray cat walking on two legs.

Because he is full of annoyance in everything, and his sleepy expression is the default.

It should be considered even more so.

“But what’s boring? Illyana has a lot of Artel friends.”

“It’s the most fun, being with Sanwoo. That’s why I’m bored these days.”

“Uh-huh, you can’t keep saying things like that. Are you half-artel? It looks like a fox Tarkan.”

When I replied disgustingly, the corners of Illyana’s lips lifted slightly to see if the reaction was funny.

“But where do you need this? Try making it first.”

“Yeah? I thought it would have been made for Illyana.”

“The ghost potion?”

“Well, it’s strange. Haha…”

There were a total of five types of potions that Iliana asked to produce.

A ghost potion that temporarily transforms the body like a ghost-type monster.

The scent of water mist that increases the probability of not being recognized by monsters.

And even a shadow potion that creates an clone just like you for a certain period of time.

Even with three, the other two weren’t the potions required under normal circumstances.

Even in the main story, if it was a special situation or if it was not used for entertainment purposes only, I said everything.

‘Of course, this is for me to disguise myself like a boss.’

Illyana’s eyes narrowed at my explanation.

“What else do you plan to do?”

The eyes piercing through people made me tremble without realizing it.

“What’s going on! I’m not doing anything.”

“Strange.”

I tried to avoid Illyana’s gaze, pounding the mortar.

When the hard-beaten alchemy ingredients are ground and turned into dough, Illyana dumps the contents into the alchemy pot.

“First, the pain relief potion.”

The base potion contained in the pot in advance causes a chemical reaction and boils.

Ride the hose connected to the potion maker and put it in a glass bottle.

squeak-

It was a potion of a color that was slightly reluctant to just eat.

“…how can you not color?”

“Yeah. Advanced pain relief potions are originally yellow.”

Illyana replied, stirring the pot with a spatula.

‘It’s not just yellow, it’s completely piss-colored, but this… … .’

Since pain relief potions were not manufactured in the game, it was impossible to determine whether Illyana’s words were false.

However-

Even after that, the colors of the potions made were all strange.

The ghost flower potion was moss-colored, and the scent of water mist was cement-colored.

Above all, the shadow potion has a very disgusting smell in addition to the ink color.

Before the battle, I had to eat them all at once.

It was fortunate that he drank only one and did not vomit.

“……..”

I had a bitter taste.

“If you make it often, you can get rid of the smell. It’s my first time.”

Illyana waved the shadow potion with curious eyes.

“I can’t help it, then.”

okay.

Who the hell would think of making a potion like this?

Even the master alchemist, Illyana, was unfamiliar with the recipe, so the success in making it was just a daunting task.

“But Sanwoo. Are you in a hurry?”

“No… it’s not urgent.”

“Then I can improve it. I don’t have enough time right now. Insufficient experience.”

Originally, she was a dead woman when she used alchemy, but since it is a potion that she rarely makes.

The potions in question seemed to have touched my pride as a seeker.

‘Ummm… … It’s not going to be used right now. I have plenty of time.’

After all, it is a potion needed when fighting Aidan.

I’ll have to test it once in the middle though. There is no need to rush already.

I decided to accept Illyana’s offer without much thought.

“Then Illyana, please make it by the end of this month. I’ll pay the price in advance.”

“Yeah. Leave it to me.”

Illyana patted my chest with her palm.

He was still wearing light clothes, but seeing his soft flesh being pressed down, I hurriedly turned my head.

“Please, Illyana. Oh, and I’ll take the potions I made today and test them.”

No matter how much Illianaze Potion, at least the prototype should have been tested.

After I put the potions in the bag I prepared beforehand.

“I have to go soon. Shall I get up first?”

“yes.”

After saying hello to Illyana lightly, she left the workshop.

‘The potion is done. Now, is it a magic product?’

next destination.

It was Arslonga’s Crystal Forge.

* * *

Crystal Forge is a blacksmith specialized in making handicrafts rather than weapons.

Therefore, the quality of equipment such as weapons and armor is a bit inconsistent for Arslonga’s 4 major blacksmiths.

If the only thing that overwhelms other forges is the equipment.

They were magic products that combined engineering with magic.

A magic gun that projects the magic contained in the crystal.

A magic resistance shield that absorbs all magic below intermediate level magic.

These equipment were only handled by Crystal Forge in Arsronga.

But what we need right now is not that kind of equipment… … .

“What?! I need 50 tech films!!!?”

Hamel shouted in his characteristic eccentric voice. His voice was so loud that even the noise of the smelting operation was covered up.

“What the hell are you planning on doing?”

“It’s because I have something to use.”

Read at readwn.com

Magical engineering film is a device close to a modern camera that transmits the image formed on the crystal on the screen of a specific device.

To describe it in game terms, it is a kind of ‘ward’.

I was planning to place this magic equipment all over the underground village to observe and respond to Aidan and his party.

‘Because you can be stupid and not get the timing right.’

The underground village is not a place with a fixed progression route like a normal dungeon.

Although Aidan could go around town and defeat all the monsters.

Based on the map, it might be possible to penetrate the hut where the boss room is located in the shortest distance.

I’ll come around this time~ with an optimistic attitude.

The moment Aidan meets Aidan without preparation, a catastrophe occurs.

However, this land fairy grandpa seems to have misunderstood.

“You have to be a very yellow budgie. I don’t know where to use it, but I can’t give it to you blindly!”

“Grandpa. What do you think of my image? Do you think I will commit any crime?”

Hamel nodded his head without saying a word.

Ah-oh! I can’t even rip that beard off and it’s hard!

I decided to personally explain why the still rude Earth Fairy needs a lot of tech film.

“I found an abandoned dungeon. I plan to install it there.”

“…? If you find an abandoned dungeon, shouldn’t you first report it to the dungeon management department?”

“I’ll report it. A little later. Even my grandpa doesn’t know. What a dungeon that has been left unmanaged for a long time means.”

As I made the gold coin shape with my fingers, Hamel’s attitude changed slightly.

Is it really a land fairy?

Look at the dreadful smell of money.

“Hmmm! Ummm… that’s right.”

“But the size of the dungeon is rather large, and there are a lot of scattered monsters. I plan to hide what happened until school starts, and then clear it with my club members.”

“School starts? You have less than a month left!”

“So, we need a tech film. Anyone who enters will immediately notice it.”

It was an excuse to have prepared in advance.

It was a pretty plausible reason for me. In the first place, Hamel also knew that the club I was in as the manager was ‘for-profit’.

If you are looking for profit, you must act accordingly.

There was also a reason to prevent any possible accidents.

If someone enters a closed dungeon by mistake and gets mutilated, that’s a big deal.

“Hamel, you know. The person who discovered anything is a jean.”

Hamel stroked his beard and nodded at my words.

“I admit that. But then, is there any reason to buy 50 tech films?”

“Because it’s that wide.”

“No, I mean… you don’t have to ‘buy’ this.”

“why?”

“Magical engineering film is a semi-permanent organ. Without the need to supply mana, it can be recharged simply by replacing the repeater’s crystal. Did you know this?”

“…I didn’t know.”

In the main story, I simply ‘know’ that such a thing existed.

Haven’t actually used it much.

At most, the experience was all about installing it on each road in the wave-type dungeon and using it to hold on.

To be honest, wards can’t really matter in an RPG. Having a line of sight makes you safe, but that’s about it.

“You don’t know anything, how did you know how film works?”

“One of the club members told me.”

“Ugh! Well, it’s not something you can easily find anywhere. Usually, it’s rarely rolled in bulk.”

Hamel shrugged and continued.

“But here in Paradise School, the situation is a little special. Magical engineering films are often used by the dungeon management department. There is a demand for it, so there is an abundance of supply.”

“So, what do you want to say in the end?”

“It means that you can rent it without having to buy it.”

The moment I heard those words, the calculator pounded loudly in my head.

“Well, tell me in detail.”
