Chapter 101 – Making Gold (5)
Our steps in the dungeon were incomparably lighter than before.
First of all, it was great to be freed from the ruler of the 30th floor, because there were no creatures that would threaten our lives on this floor, and I was even convinced that I could grow little by little.
In addition, due to the control of the dungeon I had, even the burden needed to come and go was light.
“Goes.”
I couldn’t show this figure to others, so I opened the passage to the 30th floor directly in the elevator going up to the 10th floor. The elevator door opened and we were on the 30th floor.
“…… Seriously, no matter how many times I see it, I can’t believe it.”
Rize, who saw the technique of moving through space, said that with a calm expression. He’s so calm now, but when he first showed his powers his, his eyes his would sparkle like crazy.
‘It was a bit difficult at the time.’
The price for touching the magician’s curiosity was high. I had to divide her her secrets her about her my powers her to her, and when that was n’t enough, I had to help her with various experiments to satisfy her curiosity her.
When I realized that this ability is the control of the dungeon is an unknown authority, and that it was related to a dungeon that no one had explained until now, I almost rolled my eyes and went mad.
“Come to think of it, are you doing well in your research?”
“Yes?”
“You got something from me.”
“Ah……Yes. In its own way.”
It is said that it is an authority that no one has been able to explain, so I asked Raise about the progress of the research, suddenly recalling that he had taken memories related to God from me.
But she was reluctant to speak. Just like when I stood in front of my father before finishing my homework.
He was refusing to speak.
“…… Couldn’t you have studied?”
“No, not like that…… Well, your memories themselves aren’t that useful…….”
“…… What?”
“Memory is, after all, based on what you saw and felt, right?”
“Right.”
Memory is, after all, a collective term for the senses recorded by the five senses, sight, hearing, smell, touch, and taste.
I can’t remember what I felt without my five senses. How can you remember what you couldn’t see, hear, smell, taste, or feel?
“Do-jin is your memory.”
And so was my memory of meeting God. Although it was directly imprinted in the soul, it was not a memory that would remain directly in the brain.
I nodded as I listened to Raize’s explanation.
“It’s too bad.”
“It would be nice to have it, but it doesn’t really matter if it doesn’t.”
“Okay?”
Saying that, Raise pointed to the dungeon I was stepping on.
“Isn’t there a dungeon that exists more clearly than that now? You can study this.”
“…… Okay.”
Hey, with my help, researching dungeons wouldn’t be that difficult. Perhaps she could be the first to create space-travel magic that no one had ever created before.
“If you ever need my help, just tell me.”
“Your help?”
Raize tilted her head and looked at me. He even let out a laugh.
“If I can get help from you, who aren’t even wizards, I’ll just get a wizard ticket.”
“Uh… Okay?”
“If you want to be of my help, why don’t you learn at least some simple magic? Then I will make you my assistant.”
When I heard that, I felt my whole body itching. She’s been learning magic, so with the necklace that’s hanging around my neck right now, I’ll be able to use almost any magic she can. .
But she hesitated to reveal this, even though she was my colleague, even though she was close to me. Wasn’t she also a wizard? Having lived as a wizard all her life, she didn’t know what choice she would make.
“I’ll have to learn it someday when I get a chance.”
“Hmph, with that spirit, even if you go for the rest of your life, you won’t be able to light a simple fire.”
Raise said that and moved forward. I followed behind her and smiled.
Little by little, I was able to control my emotions. That meant I was getting used to controlling my faculties.
‘The more emotional agitation…… It makes it easier to control.’
As I progressed through the dungeon, I felt the need to interact with the children more. Because I realized that the way to break an unshakable Buddha statue is to shake it even louder.
* * *
I won’t reveal the artifact to the mage. It was Do-jin who thought so, but the world was quite savage, so there were a lot of cases where things didn’t go the way he wanted.
“Do Jin!”
I raise my head at the cry of the galaxy. A werewolf jumps from the ceiling. It was late to find it because I was focusing my attention elsewhere.
However, Do-jin swung her sword without any worries. Even if the discovery was a little late, it was not to the extent of being a threat to the extraordinary reflex speed and physical abilities.
‘A little faster.’
And strongly.
The artifact, which was firmly attached to Dojin’s body, robbed her of the bioelectric current sent by her muscles and realized that will.
Haste.
Strength.
Chow-!
“…… Uh?”
Do-jin exclaimed in surprise at the momentary acceleration of his body. My body his moved more than 1.5 times faster than I expected.
But there was no time to panic. Do-jin, who hunted monsters as fast as 1.5 times faster, cut off the head of the last werewolf and returned to the party as it was.
“Dojin-ah, are you okay?”
“Leader, are you okay?”
While Eunha and Orion were worried that Dojin almost missed the monster, Raise glared at him with sharp eyes.
Dojin unknowingly hid his necklace her and turned his head.
“…… You, just that.”
“Uh, huh? What?”
“How did you do it?”
“Laize? What happened to the leader all of a sudden…….”
“You two- can’t you see? You used magic! Just now!”
At those words, Eunhwa and Orion also looked at Dojin. Did you use magic? It was a quick move to think so.
However, he was a pure swordsman who did not even know the spell of magic, and the party knew that best.
In particular, Galactic, who came from a world like that, was well aware of how absurd that was.
“Do-jin uses magic… ? It can’t be.”
“Can’t you even see it?”
“Scroll… Maybe it’s like that? That’ll be too… Do-jin didn’t know how to use magic until a few months ago.”
“…… What?”
The one who was most surprised by those words was Rize. As a practicing mage, she knew how hard it was to learn her magic her.
If you consider that she is only a mid-level wizard who has devoted her entire life to magic, if you think about how she is still treated as a genius.
It was absolutely ridiculous.
“…… You explain How the hell did this happen?”
“I wrote a scroll.”
“Do you think that excuse will work in front of me, a wizard? Didn’t I see you tearing the scroll?”
“…… She’s actually been learning magic since a few months ago. I only practiced these two.”
“Wow, that’s really great. She said in a few months she would learn magic until she was able to skip chanting. Who did you learn from? If there is a mage who teaches so well, I should stop learning from my master and learn from her.”
However, no matter what method she used, she could not escape the suspicion of Raise, an incumbent mage. Do-jin sighed slightly and eventually took out his necklace of hers.
“…… Laize, you are my colleague. Right?”
“Suddenly, something…… If you’re thinking of moving on to that kind of sound-.”
“Light.”
Dojin held up her necklace and shouted.
Let there be light.
Then there was light.
“What is this…….”
Would a religious person who saw God create the world be like that?
The shock that Raize received when he saw the necklace exert its magic was similar to that.
Shock as if the world was reborn and collapsed.
Whether it was a strong wizard or a wizard, it was a shock that could not be endured.
In the end, now he collapsed, unable to believe what he saw.
“Laize!?”
Seeing her collapsing, Do-jin took her her and escaped her dungeon her.
* * *
At dawn, when nocturnal animals open their eyes and fill the silent night with their cries, Raise slowly opened her eyes.
‘…… Here is?’
Looking around her, she realized that she was at Do-jin’s mansion. There must have been no place for her to take her who had suddenly collapsed in her dungeon her.
‘Did you spread out and sleep all day?’
Rajee saw the moon rising outside the window and let out a devastated sigh. Yes, it is true that she has been sleep deprived lately because of this or that or her studies her.
Thanks to that, my condition was at its best right now. When I lay down in bed like this and wake up in the morning, I was in such perfect condition that everything would return to normal, but…… Raise nodded and stood up.
‘I have to ask.’
What was the object she had seen in her dungeon earlier, and whether it was the ‘tool’ she thought it was.
As a wizard, she had a duty to know. And if the tool she has in mind is right…….
‘…… I’ll have to smash it.’
You can’t hide forever anyway. Wasn’t it noticed by himself right away, if he was an elder-class wizard of the Mage Tower, he could have noticed it the moment he saw it.
And if the elders of the Mage Tower saw such a thing, they would try to kill everyone including Do-jin and the person who made it.
Do-jin would not be able to stop the Mage Tower, the vested interest of the other world.
Raise thought it would be better for a new history to disappear than for Dojin to die. Although her descendants of her from her distant future would describe her as a scoundrel who delayed the development of her magic her by a thousand years. She was thinking of protecting Dojin.
“Dojin…….”
Now that she was out of the room, she faced people walking one after another from across the hallway. It was the first face she had ever seen. Is it the newly hired maid?
The clothes were too free to be seen as such. In the first place, this wasn’t even the mansion where the maids slept.
“Uh? Who……”
“That one is….”
Noah tilted her head as she looked at Raize, who had met me. A child, I wondered if Do-jin had reached out to a new woman again.
However, Noah, who believed so strongly that she would not stretch out her hand even to her little child her, let out a few coughs and started introducing herself.
“Well, I am Noah, the alchemist hired by Mr. Dojin.”
“…… Alchemist?”
“Yes. That one…… Who are you?”
“Alchemist.”
Alchemist. It was a profession that was not very familiar with wizards. Because they were outrageous things that tried to recreate divine magic with alchemy.
I heard that alchemists devote their lives to turning lead into gold. I thought the woman in front of me was like that.
‘…… Gold?’
And the necklace that Dojin had in Raise’s mind comes to mind.
It was obviously solid gold.
