Main Character Hides His Strength

8. A Fire that Does Not Go Out

“You need to help me. ”

Krill Rigall never imagined that fire would splatter like this.

Dolores Winterer approached Krill Rigall because she committed the same crimes as someone from the same sorcery school.

At first, Krill Rigel felt strong resentment.

When I asked you to help me hear that I came from the same school, you were so bold to ask for help when you were in a difficult situation.

But until Dolores falls, Krill Rigel had little choice.

Reporting Park Aram's death to the track is the only option, but Dolores manages the wizards by keeping a large number of Watchers' eyes between the place where the track stays and the observation deck for security reasons.

If we go to the police, we could die.

But it's not like we don't have a chance.

The day before the ranking battle, which takes place once a week, the track comes to the viewpoint and receives a report on the growth of the cabinet members.

When you receive a report, the road will be the best opportunity to ask Krill for a bribe.

However, there are 4 days left before the ranking.

Until then, the law of Dolores Winter is irrefutable.

“I need you to come with me to Cheongju Square. ”

Krill Rigall had no choice.

I've been messing with Dolores' planting and I don't know what kind of trouble she's in.

Krill Rigall followed Dolores through the slave hunter's passageway to the Blue Square.

Dolores puts on a hood and gives Krill Rigall a glass jar of dark red blood.

“Keep it. It's precious. Don't spill it. ”

“What... is this? Brother.”

“What else could it be? Werewolf Fiji at her feet. The werewolf's blood at its core has the power to turn an ordinary human into a werewolf. ”

“Is that right...? ”

“I don't teach at school. Remember that. I'll show you how to draw werewolf blood when I have time. ”

Is it because it is needed?

Dolores, who used to be so cold, treats her like she's a completely different person.

Krill Regal felt disgusted, but on the one hand he felt something else.

The common craving for knowledge of Dolores, who has fallen into the ranks of the Intermediate Wizard, suddenly raised his head.

But Krill Rigall held her heart in remembrance of Dolores' humiliation until then.

Dolores Winterer hypnotized an anonymous Summoner in the Blue Square by handing over the werewolf serum.

“On the day of the Rank Battle, you will have to kill everyone in the White Square with your colleagues. Especially the faces of the humans who need to be killed first. ”

Krill Rigel notices Dolores' scar.

"You create a force majeure, like the Expedition, and you kill all your inner circle to get away with it." Then the responsibility will go naturally to the end of the road or the top of it. Responsibility will go from neglect to failure to negotiate with the palace. ’

I thought I could admit to Dolores' ability and bold actions.

I unconsciously thought that if I could make a proper connection with this woman, I would have enough to learn.

On the way back to the Observatory, Krill Rigel faced a familiar face.

He was a one-armed slave hunter.

He sees Dolores' face as he goes ahead and grabs her.

“Are you with her? ”

Krill Rigall wanted to ignore it, but she also received a favor before, so she responded briefly in a short tone.

“Sort of. ”

“There's nothing more dangerous than a woman who makes ordinary people take the test. ”

The slave hunter disappears into the darkness with a lonely smile.

Krill Rigall feels pretty bad.

*

"D will create six werewolves in the Blue Square, and the werewolves will target the inner circle."

The information that the sky squirrel brought was enough to complicate Kim Sung-cheol's head.

A werewolf ravages the White Plaza.

If six such things appear, Satan will appear.

There will be a one-sided slaughter.

“Well…”

Kim Sung-cheol has fought on many battlefields, but in this situation, there is no sharp solution.

It is impossible to raise the Summoners to a satisfying level in just four days, if you have about a month's time.

You can impersonate a coincidence and kill one or two werewolves, but if you treat all six of them that way, all of your efforts may go back to bullying.

I need something innovative and decisive

At that time, I remembered something I had forgotten about Kim Sung-cheol's brain.

‘There it was. ’

Kim Sung-cheol took out a huge book that had been stuffed into the soul warehouse.

It's a book called Bertelgia.

He may not be a grumpy one, but there are many visions of the alchemist Eckhart inside.

Among them, there may be a secret to overcoming the current situation.

“Why did you call me? ”

Vertelgia yawns and says:

It took a little while for the book to yawn, but Kim Sung-cheol didn't really point out.

Instead, I spoke with a bold voice.

“You defeated six werewolves before the next rank. You need the knowledge of alchemy to defeat werewolves using only the resources you currently have. ”

“A werewolf? The only person skilled enough to defeat my father's golem calls me a werewolf? ”

Bertelkia covers the bookshelf and throws herself to the ground to see if Kim Sung-cheol wasn't enough.

“For some reason, I have to hide my powers. Therefore, I need something that can defeat werewolves with only the strength and skill of Summoners. ”

“Hmm. Is that what this is about? ”

“Can you do it? ”

“Of course. I'm Bertelgia. The common denominator of Alchemy. I don't think it's a bad idea to show off my skills this time. ”

Bertelkia flies around the bookshelf, circling around Kim Sung-cheol.

A moment later, Bertelgia opens the bookshelf with shallow elasticity, and one of them is shown to Kim Sung-cheol.

Fire that won't go out

“What is this? ”

Kim Sung-cheol asked.

“It's a fire that doesn't go out by name. It burns stronger when you sprinkle water. It's also good for the imagination of werewolves who are weak to fire. Above all, I chose this because there are lots of materials around here and it's easy to make. ”

“Oh.”

I thought it was a chatty book, but it's pretty clever.

Kim Sung-cheol glanced through the ingredients on the item of fire that was not extinguished.

Ingredients for an undisturbed fire include 3 large bodily fluids: Golden Stone, Alchemy Charcoal, and Blood Pudding.

Among them, Alchemy Charcoal is a crafted item that requires processing other materials, and the other two can be obtained through Gathering or Hunting.

Necessary instruments have the same things as the causation and wind, but it was not a problem because it can be replaced sufficiently by Kim Sung-cheol's strength.

“Do you have your dad's portable pension kiln? You haven't thrown it away yet, have you? ”

“I didn't throw it away. ”

“Good. Let's find the golden stone first. You can collect the Golden Stone from the cliffs. ”

Bertelkia flies ahead, rattling with excitement.

Kim Sung-cheol grabbed her from behind and covered her up.

“No, what are you doing? He wants to walk like a mother! ”

As Bertelkia struggled, Kim Sung-cheol moved.

An unbelievable speed, even from the sight of it.

Kim Sung-cheol quickly reached the bottom of the cliff.

Bertelgia, who played Anthal, was surprised.

“Y-you. What the hell? What did you eat so fast? ”

Bertelgia only opens her mouth after a short absence.

“Where is the golden stone? ”

“Hmmm... a strange man. I think I got it from a really weird guy. What the hell...”

“Where is the golden stone?" ”

“What a boring, overbearing person. I really don't have any luck. ”

“Golden...”

“Okay! If you find it, it's not enough. Over here.”

Vertelgia flies toward the cliff and stops between the small piles of rocks hanging from the cliff.

“This is it. This is the golden stone. ”

“Hmm? This is the golden stone? It looks like a rock. ”

“Take a look. ”

Kim Sung-cheol snuck up the cliff and grabbed the golden stone by his hand.

‘Yes. This is not a stone. ’

It was more like moss or mushrooms than rocks.

Inside, you find a pile of spores and dust glowing like gold.

When strangers saw it, they were dazzled enough to mistakenly think it was gold.

Kim Sung-cheol thought it was strange and took it to his nose and smelled it.

When I smelled it, I remembered information about the ingredients in front of Kim Sung-cheol.

< Golden Stone >

Level: 2

Grade: D

Attribute: Neck

Effect: Fuel

Note: The name is Stone, but the identity is Mushroom. It is highly flammable and fireproof. It is primarily used as a fuel for Dwarves. A colonized species. The older the age and the larger the colony, the more effective it will be.

“Oh.”

Kim Sung-cheol's eyes reminded me of this.

Interesting

It's been a while since I've had the pleasure of visiting something I don't know.

“Next up is Blood Pudding. The mucus in the blood pudding is hard to light, but once you put it on, it doesn't go out well! This is the Alpha of Fire, the Omega, that never goes out! ”

Bertelkia urges her next move.

Kim Sung-cheol put the golden stone in his pocket and immediately grabbed Bertelkia and headed to the next place.

Finding blood pudding was not difficult.

You crawl out of the abandoned cave, bleeding the corpse of a small animal.

“Be careful. Blood pudding is a slime family and hence the physical resistance. No matter how strong you are, it can be dangerous to be surrounded by him...”

Vertelgia was unable to speak.

It was because Kim Sung-cheol's fist was turning forcefully.

Boom! Boom! Puck!

Blood pudding exploded literally and scattered debris all around.

“W-what... what... are you...?! ”

Vertelgia remains frozen in the air.

Kim Sung-cheol took out a sheet and picked up a piece of blood pudding and said roughly.

“How do I make an Alchemy Charcoal? ”

“What are you...? What the...”

Bertelgia seems surprised again.

That's how it works.

Common sense says it's impossible to punch and kill the Slime family with your fists.

‘What the hell is all this? Who the hell is this guy?! ’

Bertelkia had only just realized that his master was an unusual man, but he was also impatient.

“Annuities...”

“Fine! You can teach me! ”

The materials of the Alchemy Charcoal are all around you.

It was enough to heat a mix of leaves and wood in the sky.

It took some time, but Kim Sung-cheol, who even finished the Alchemy Charcoal, has now taken out the Portable Alchemy kiln of Eckhart from the Soul Depot.

It was a cute kiln small enough to fit into the palm of your hand, but when you unseal it, a huge brass, worthwhile alchemical kiln reveals itself.

“All right, we're ready. All you have to do now is make it. ”

Kim Sung-cheol nodded his head and stood in front of the pension kiln.

A burning mixture of Alchemy Charcoal and Golden Stone heats the kiln.
