Chapter 314 – Anti-Magic Bracelet #2

‘Shock! Is there a nun in the church who spends lupine while playing?’

Feeling like a reporter who came to cover a scoop, I visited Gwangmyeongseong Church.
Weekday afternoons were busy times for the nuns, but it didn’t matter.

You could bet all your money on Kate hanging out!

‘I’m sure he’s sleeping somewhere.’

Should I say that it is like a late-aged sergeant who is about to be discharged?
Kate had a talent for idling away from the prying eyes of church officials during her workday.
Even me, a first-class wizard, has a hard time finding Kate practicing her stealth tricks.
She was not a nun, but she was a talented woman who could have flourished if she had changed her job.

“Has she ever seen Kate?”
“Sister Kate? Well… She was cleaning the chapel during the day and she disappeared somewhere. I’m not sure.”

She went into the church, grabbed the nuns, and asked where Kate was, but nobody seemed to know.
I found Kate after wandering around the church buildings for an hour.

Where was she hiding?
Surprisingly, Kate was sleeping in the nuns’ dormitory.
In the dormitory, she hid herself in a shabby room that no one used.
I was dumbfounded when I saw a blonde-haired nun taking a nap in the corner of her room with the blanket wrapped around her.

Should I say like a caterpillar encased in her cocoon?
He seemed very carefree as he wrapped himself in a blanket and even talked in his sleep.

Even if the world were to end right away, wouldn’t this nun be lazy?
It’s bigger than planting an apple tree!

“Huhu … Walk is a nun’s right. Oh … Don’t crave Oh … Hmmya …”
“Kate.”
“With a mace… How to save the world…!”
“Kate!”

Talking in your sleep is also bizarre.
As I removed the covers, Kate rolled on her floor and opened her eyes.

“…Huh! Mo-Montmagnihi…?”

My pronunciation is leaking because I woke up less.
Kate looked at me with her half-open eyes.
It seems that I can’t tell if my appearance in the dormitory is a dream or reality.

“…How is Dreamma here? He is hiding in the most remote part of the dormitory. Is this a dream?”
“It’s not a dream. I’ve been wandering around the church for an hour looking for you. You’re not working during work hours?”
“Is it work…?”

Kate raised her head proudly in response to my question.
There was life in her voice as she answered boldly.

“You can’t do it today!”

Are you proudly lazy?
I misunderstood that for a moment, but after hearing the circumstances, there was another reason for Kate to play comfortably.

“I had a ‘work shift bet’ with the other nuns. It’s a bet where the losing nun does the work for the winning nun.”
“Do nuns make a bet like that?”
“You can call it a bout with each other’s fate. Games like thief or poker decide the outcome of the bet. And so far I’ve never lost a bet!”

Kate drew her V-jabs with her fingers as she exclaimed confidently.

Is it a bet to drive work!
In fact, when I was an active soldier, I had done a lot with my classmates when I was doing miscellaneous jobs.
The person who lost in rock-paper-scissors brought all the corrosion.
Doesn’t a military-like culture exist in the world of nuns?

“212 wins out of 212! I won all of them without missing a single one. Among the nuns, my nickname is the God of Gambling.”
“Doesin Kate?”
“Whoop whoop.”

Dodo Kate!
How can a nun be nicknamed the God of Gambling?

I know very well that Kate is oddly lucky.
If she gets into her gambling den you can bet she’ll be kicked out of her in less than an hour.
Because she’ll use her luck to wipe out all her stake and get suspected of tampering.

‘Why is he so lucky?’

I had a small question, but it was nothing to worry about right now.
Anyway, I don’t know the church officials, but among the nuns, it means that they are playing with proper permission.
It’s work and time, but you’ll have plenty of time to help me with my experiments.

“What’s the matter with Dreammaster? If you’ve been looking for me for an hour, is there something urgent about me? Or that you just couldn’t stand it because I missed you?!”
“I wanted to test an artifact created through alchemy. I came to ask you to help me with the experiment.”
“I see!

Kate nodded her head knowingly.
She was Kate, stretching her body all the way and raising her body with her energetic expression.

“What I’m carrying is an artifact called the ‘Bracelet of Anti-Evil.’ It’s a protective artifact that keeps the wearer sane. It’s limited to mental attacks, but it can block things like hallucination magic and curses.”
“Aha. It’s like the [Purification] Spell that our nuns use.”

Even if they didn’t wear the Anti-Ma bracelet, the nuns could also use divine magic to remove hallucinations and curses.
It was a divine spell called [Purification], Which dissipates the evil energy around the nun in a wide area.
But we couldn’t expect Kate to take care of us all the time.

‘If Kate falls under her hallucination magic, it’s doomed.’

Other than that, things like Kate being separated from the front line, or being injured and not being able to do her part.
[Purification] Unexpected situations in which you cannot enjoy the benefits of magic could happen at any time.
The Antima Bracelet was absolutely necessary.

“Yes. But it’s different from the [Purification] Spell in that it’s applied all the time. If you wear the bracelet, you can lessen the burden of preparing for future mental attacks. I’ve prepared several bracelets to give as gifts to you and others.”

When asked to give her bracelet as a gift, Kate showed her curiosity.

“You’re giving it to me as a gift? How much does it cost?”
“It’s an artifact that costs about 60 gold even if you consider the material cost alone. If you add manpower, the price will go up there.”
“Yu, sixty gold!!”

When Kate heard the price of her bracelet, her attitude toward me changed.
Up until now, the atmosphere had been that it was fun and suitable for experiments, but now it is as serious as working.
Sixty gold was enough money to save the nun’s salary for five months.

“Oh, is it free? It’s not like you’re selling it for money, right?”
“It’s a gift, so of course it’s free.”
“Thank you, Dreammaster!! Let’s start the experiment right away!”

She explained her experimental method to her highly motivated Kate.

“First of all, I’m going to hypnotize you into a charm. Let’s see if the hypnosis will be released if you put the bracelet in that state.”
“Hypnotize me now.”

I was able to use the Enchanted Eye as much as I had awakened the ability of a high-ranking dreamer in the Great Forest.
I’m sure it will be of great help in battle, but I haven’t used the charm eye yet.
The law of destruction is clear, so if the owner of the Charming Eye is found out, it will be difficult to hypnotize at will.
It is a kind of hidden card.

“Suck!”

I activated my fascination eye towards Kate standing in front of me.

Dig!

A red beam shot out of his eye and hit Kate.
Opponents hit by the beam are as if hypnotized.
For about a minute, I was able to control my body at will.

“Do 10 jumps in place!”
“Ahhh…! My body moves on its own…!”

Kate started running in place as I commanded.
Putting on a puzzled expression is not moving because she wants to look everywhere.

“Sit, roll, stand, sit.”
“Gee, it feels very fresh…! My body moves on its own and I’m exercising!”

By manipulating Kate, he confirmed that her enchanted eye was working properly.

‘I feel surprisingly good?’

Being able to move others at my will, a shady desire soars.
I want to cure that playful nun’s nature by hypnotizing her like this!

“Starting tomorrow, the time to wake up is unconditionally at 7 am. Get into the habit of waking up immediately in the morning.”
“Yes, yes? What are you doing!”
“The early bird catches the worm quickly. At 7:00 a.M., You automatically open your eyes! If you haven’t been tired the night before, go to bed early and wake up early!”
“Kyaaaaagh…! My body has become healthy on its own…!!”

Of course, this is what I said, but hypnosis is meaningless when the effect of the fascinated eye is over.
Advanced hypnosis, which leaves suggestions and makes you do something unconsciously, was impossible.
If that was possible, Wiseman would have been able to conquer the continent.

“I’ll put on a bracelet.”

I walked up to Kate, who was still, and put the bracelet on her wrist.
The moment she put her bracelet on, Kate was immediately released from the hypnosis and was able to move her body.

“Mo, Dreammaster! It’s not like I have to get up early in the morning unconditionally? Will the hypnotic influence remain and make me a good life nun?”
“You don’t have to worry. Once the hypnosis you’ve put in your charm is over, it’s over. You just have to wake up according to your schedule.”
“Phew…”

With a sigh of relief, Kate told me that her hypnosis had worked perfectly.

“The symptom of the body moving on its own has disappeared. Wearing the bracelet makes my head feel clearer. Let’s try another experiment.”
“This time, while wearing the bracelet, I’m going to try various mental attacks. I’m going to use the charm eye at full power, and I’m going to use hallucination magic as well.”

Dig!

I fired a ray of fascination at Kate again.
But Kate, with her bracelet on, never fell into a hypnotic state when hit by a beam.

“If you shoot a beam from your eyes like that, won’t your eyesight deteriorate?”
“I don’t know either.”

Next is [Naja], The hallucination magic I am learning.
It was a mental attack that caused nausea with hallucinations.

[Naja]

Squeeze!

The moment the magic was activated with the shadowless window, a light mist spread and hovered in the room.
Originally, opponents exposed to this fog should feel nauseated.
But even in the fog, Kate was fine.

“There’s a mood in the fog in the room.”
“Oooh!”

Do you even have time to tell your impressions?
Exposed to the same fog, I felt sick to my stomach and a feeling of vomiting rose up.
Likewise, when I put on the anti-ma bracelet, the nauseous feeling completely disappeared.

In addition, I tried various hallucination magic, but the anti-evil bracelet perfectly protected Kate, the test subject.
There were no flaws in the handmade artifacts I created.

“Good work! Artifact works normally. You can keep the bracelet you are wearing.”
“Thank you, Mongma.”

The experiment is over.
It was when Kate, who had taken the bracelet, was smiling happily.

Suddenly, a strange sound came from outside the dormitory window.
The voices of the church members murmured loudly outside.

“Muh, what’s going on! Priest Jackson!”
“Someone call a nun…!”

As I poked my head out the window, I saw church members gathered at the entrance of the church.
Among the church members, I saw a priest bleeding profusely for some reason.

“Sah, save me…!”
