Chapter 81 – Mine Hunt (1)

It’s been 3 days since I engraved a vulva on Seoin.

Ahyeong returned to the academy two days ago, and Laysha and Chloe returned to the academy yesterday.
It was to prepare for the second semester.

However, the faces of us reunited were not dark, but not bright either.

“Are you leaving now?”

After returning from attacking the world of glass, Ah-young was the first among us to stop at a cafe and asked me.

“Huh.”

The day after talking about mine hunting with Riel.
I told them that I was going to hunt Riel and demons.
Of course, Seoin too.

Riel said she would tell them, but it would be right for her to listen to me first rather than her.

“I see…”

Ahyoung said with a bitter expression.
That was no different for Laysha and Chloe.

It’s not long before school starts.
In order to prepare for the second semester, it was a situation where one minute and one second was regrettable.

You will be able to widen the gap with other students by attacking the glass world more times to gain points and raise the level of your stats and abilities.

That’s why they can’t stop me.
They also returned to their hometown.
And Ayoung and Chloe learned that I was a demon and saw firsthand the use of Magi.

For me, gaining more magic was a shortcut to growth.

But I couldn’t help but feel a little guilty.
In particular, it seemed as if their sad expression became a dagger and pierced my heart.

“I don’t think I’ll be back until the day before school starts. You must be very busy.”

In fact, I had very little to do.
Most of the work was done by Riel.
I just quietly follow along and farming is enough.

It’s just a little busy.

“Okay. Should I be careful?”

Ah-yeong said, and Laysha and Chloe looked at me as if they were saying the same thing.

“Don’t worry. Who am I going with?”

This is the way to accompany the strongest person in the world, whose heart becomes magnificent.
It was clear that I would never be in any danger.

“Whoops… That’s right.”

Laysha smiled slightly and said as if she was relieved.

Maybe it reminded me of when Riel opened the world of glass and slaughtered monsters.
She hadn’t seen her open the entrance to the glass world, but if she did, she would be relieved.

“…But you have to be careful.”

Chloe said calmly, as if nothing had happened.
And Laysha was looking at Chloe with a complicated expression.

Originally, before entering the world of glass, Chloe talked to me in a flattering way.

Chloe was an English speaker, so he wasn’t used to honorifics.
It was the same with Laysha.

While Lay Shah used honorifics to show her manners, Chloe used honorifics only for special people.

For example, Chloe doesn’t use honorifics except for Laysha.
It was the same for the instructors, but since she was a foreigner, she thought so and moved on.

Anyway, there was no way that Laysha didn’t know what Chloe’s honorifics meant.

“Yeah, thank you.”

I calmly accepted Chloe’s words.

And after we left the cafe, we headed to the school gate of the academy.
As the sun began to set, the world turned orange and the lights of the academy buildings turned on one by one.

They were looking at each other with their backs to the academy and me to the school gates.

“Bye. Do I need to contact you often?”

Ah-yeong hugged me and said, and I patted her on the back.

“Huh.”

Behind A-Young, they were staring at A-Young with an expression of envy.

“Laysha and Chloe are fine too.”

I wonder if the girls who left the academy with me seeing them off had this kind of heart.
Of course, it could have been a different mind as the relationship between now and then was a little different.

However, I thought that the feelings of the girls who let me go would be similar to mine at that time.

“Yes. Have a good trip.”

“May you be safe.”

With Laysha and Chloe seeing me off, I headed to the Meteor Shop.

When I turned my back, I couldn’t see them anymore.
The thought of having to be away from them for 10 days made him feel a bit depressed, but he couldn’t help it in order to get more Magi.

It was the moment when I turned my back and headed for Riel’s shop.

Belt ring.

The cube watch vibrated and a text message sounded.
The person who sent the text was Riel.

– Are you coming?

It was a fairly simple text message, and I replied simply.

-Yes.

– You’ll feel dizzy.

As soon as I saw the message, I braced my neck to prepare for dizziness, and my vision changed in an instant.

“Whoa…”

How much mana is overflowing?
I always use teleport casually.

It must be a skill that consumes a lot of mana.

“Are you okay?”

Green mana warmly wrapped around me, and in front of her was Riel’s figure, wearing a wide-brimmed hat that was pressed down deeply.

“Yes, it is fine.”

Having already experienced Riel’s teleport several times, I was able to overcome her dizziness easily, and most of all, she used her magic.

“Yeah, I did it to hurry a little.”

“It’s okay. It’s not just this time.”

“Whoops… I see.”

When I was playfully sarcastic, Riel laughed, curling up the corners of her mouth as if she was having fun.
At the same time, he grabbed something from the shelf under the counter.

“Take it.”

Then Riel handed me something of hers and looked down at what was in her hand.

“A mask… Is it?”

“Okay.”

Riel nodded her head in response.
I don’t know exactly what the name was, but it was a mask that only covers the eyes, like you would see in a masquerade in a movie or an opera.

The mask Riel gave me was black, and her mask was red.
What they have in common is that both are simple designs.

“But it is no ordinary mask. It is better to experience once than to hear a hundred times. Come on, try it on.”

“Um… I see.”

Since she had never worn a mask in her life, she was a bit reluctant, but being told that it was not an ordinary mask made her curious and needed to cover her face, so she accepted the mask Riel gave her without saying a word.

And the moment I put it on, a notification window appeared in front of my eyes.

[Plain Mask – Enchantment]
[Cognitive Impairment (Lv 10)]
[Detect Magic (Lv 8)]
[Night Vision (Lv10)]

“How are you?”

Riel asked me with a satisfied look if he had seen my surprise at the notification window that appeared in front of me.

“Incredible…”

It’s not an artifact, it’s an ordinary mask.
That fact has already been guaranteed by the notification window.
However, high-level abilities were added only by enchanting.

Looking at it like this, the simple design of the mask started to look sophisticated.

“Did you make it yourself?”

“It is. It’s something I made quite a while ago.”

Certainly, Riel is the only wizard with the ability to create something of this level.

“I see… Sister Riel.”

I gulped down her saliva and looked at Riel.
I didn’t forget to look at her with her little sad eyes.

“Hmm?”

“Can you sell this to me? I will definitely pay the price…”

It was half a joke, but the other half was sincere.
To be honest, I was so coveted.
More than a pendant of immortality in a way.

Currently, there is no way for humans to detect demons’ demonic energy.
Of course, they could be identified as demons because their whites were stained red and the veins on their necks were protruding.

However, it is only the lowest-level demons with a low level that the method of discrimination is commonly used.
In the original work, lower-middle level demons were able to change their appearance like normal humans.

However, this mask not only detects demons, but also has cognitive impairment magic and night vision magic.
That’s a whopping 8 or 10 levels.

“Do you want one?”

Riel said with a small smile.

“Yes.”

I really wanted to have it.

“Well, there’s nothing I can’t give you if you finish this job well.”

“… All right.”

There must be a reason to finish this job well.
Not too long ago, I felt a bit gloomy, but now I could feel my will starting to flare up.

“Huh, that’s cute.”

And Riel was looking at me like I was having fun, and her face started to heat up a little.
In fact, maybe she intended it to make me feel better.

“Hmmmm… Let’s go.”

“Yes, 10 days isn’t a lot of time, so you’d better move quickly.”

Having said that, Riel put on her mask.
Her red eyes gleamed through the mask, like her rubies.

I followed Riel and wore her mask.

Then, she began to brighten the inside of the store, which had been a little dark, as if sunlight were coming in.

“Oh…”

It’s not an ordinary skill, it’s an enchanted equipment.
It was a strange feeling.

“Let’s start by moving.”

Then Riel rubbed her thumb and forefinger together, making a clicking sound.

At the same time, the view changed again.

Looking at Riel, she was smiling quite satisfied.
She doesn’t even have to snap her fingers when she teleports.
Did he feel good about wearing a mask?

“Um… Where is this place?”

After shaking off her dizziness, she looked around and asked.
Black cars were lined up, and next to them were rows of men dressed in black suits.

All of them seemed to be awakened people, but they didn’t look particularly high.
Equal to or less than me.

Identical snake tattoos were visible on their necks.

But is it because of the enchantment of the mask?
They don’t seem to notice us.

“It’s Russia.”

“Okay…”

I remembered the documents Riel gave me.

It reminded me of the mafia called Noth Eight La, a criminal group where the devils and villains joined hands.

“These are drug traffickers, prostitutes, and extortionists in the name of protection money.”

When she said what was roughly written in the document, Riel looked at me with a surprised expression.

“Did you memorize everything?”

“Yes, right?”

Rather than memorizing it, it would be more appropriate to say that I memorized it after reading it once due to the effect of ability.
However, I did not correct it because I did not want to put a second on the evaluation of me that had gone up even further.

“Awesome. Yes, as you said, they are bad guys.”

Said Riel, looking disgusted at the building lined with her bodyguards.
There must be something illegal going on inside that building.

“The demons…”

I guessed how long it would be.
I could feel the vicious energy of demons from beyond the building.

There are a total of five energy that feels like that.
Although there were far fewer of them than the demons they had wiped out last time, the amount of magic felt was different.
A larger and more terrifying aura was felt.

“There are about five of them, but they are all trash.”

Is Riel, who is normally pliable and considerate, right?
Harsh words came out of her mouth.

And he was glaring at the building as if he was going to blow it up with just his eyes.

‘No way…’

She didn’t take it seriously, but if it were her, wouldn’t it be possible?

“I want to blow it up right away, but… Let’s go in first.”

And my imagination almost became a reality.

But she seemed to have decided to sneak into the building quietly.
It won’t be just Mine and Villains in it.

“The barrier is broken.”

But she didn’t want to, Riel said as if looking at the building in disgust.
It seems that it is also a meeting place for demons and villains, so it does not allow easy intrusion.

“Heh, I only have this much.”

The moment I thought so, my vision changed completely again.
I was wrong

I looked around.

But I gave up looking around.
Because it wasn’t a sight I wanted to capture.

The men sitting arrogantly in the chairs were giggling as if they were enjoying the sight I couldn’t bear to see.

And in front of them, unknown powder was scattered.
Maybe it’s drugs

However, today will be the last day of their play.
Riel’s gaze, distorting her face like a demon, turned to them and they noticed us too.

“Who…!”

A man rose from his seat and tried to shout at us, but before he could finish his sentence, his throat was cut.

“Don’t you dare dirty her original daughter’s ears with her foul voice.”

Riel used her words, and the men opened their mouths, trying hard to say something of her, but no sound came out.

“… Ah…?”

Except for me
Fortunately, my voice didn’t seem dirty.
