Chapter 265 – In the Dungeon (9)
#
Niel’s day was monotonous.
My daily routine is lying in bed and maintaining my stamina, or reading a book.
Of course, Niel wasn’t like this since he was born. It was after she got sick that even walking around the mansion became difficult. Prior to that, he was rather referred to as a tomboy.
The cause of the disease was unknown.
Niel’s parents searched for all sorts of ways, but in the end, they left for a long way to the elven holy land, the Great Forest, where the World Tree is located, and never returned. I just send letters and medicines from time to time.
As long as he went back to the elves who advocated isolationism, he couldn’t do anything more.
The road was too far for Niel to go with, and above all, it was doubtful that traditionalists would accept an elf born and raised in a big city.
Anyway, the only hobbies I could have in such a situation were endlessly looking out the window and reading books.
There was also a magical orb that Ariel had brought for herself.
An aircraft that projects external sounds and images while flying. But Niel was just using it as a decoration for a corner of the room.
It was strange at first, but the mansion where all the servants had left was filled with silence, and it was painful to see the garden getting messed up with each passing day. There was also a problem that was difficult to ignore now that magic stones were used.
Such a boring life, no, a dying daily life. At one time, he had bad thoughts, but he couldn’t because he had Ariel and Rebecca, who were sacrificing themselves.
As those days continued, they came. To be precise, he
A lot has changed since he came.
The mansion is in a good way, Rebecca’s shoulders have been loosened from anger and tension, and above all, Ariel’s engagement, which was Niel’s biggest worry about her, has been resolved.
In fact, if you look at the root of it, Ariel’s engagement was made for the means to cure Niel’s illness, so it could be seen that the solution was nothing to Niel.
However, thanks to his ability his, his condition his did not get worse.
Amplification of abilities. In fact, he was a summoned hero from another world, and for some reason he escaped from the capital.
Thanks to his ability his, Ariel’s magical powers his were amplified, and as a result, Niniel was able to breathe.
But the method of amplification is…
Rebecca stepped forward and sacrificed to prove the effect, but she did not give a detailed explanation. At best, it’s just an ambiguous sentiment of ‘It’s painful, but not so much that I can’t stand it’.
Still, he was better than Ariel. Ariel refused to comment on him at all.
For Niel, the doubts only grew.
It is said that he was given the ability by the goddess, so he had enough reason to test his amplification her directly with her body her. It must have been the words of the priest who was with him.
But how does that amplification happen?
Niel’s curiosity was answered by chance.
“Curious about how amplification works? That’s… Annoying. You will know it when you see it for yourself.”
“Did you see it yourself?”
“You’ll know if you just visit at night, right? He does it every night.”
The girl with the scarlet hair explained that the Ego Sword was a polymorph.
Do it every night Doing it to his co-workers? Do they have something to amplify?
But come at night It’s against etiquette.
Niel could not contain his curiosity.
Rebecca and Ariel refuse to give detailed explanations. A blond priest who refuses to speak with a troubled, sometimes frightening look in his eyes. A black-haired adventurer I’ve rarely encountered. And the holy sword that only says what he wants to say.
Nielon decided to take a peek, just a little bit.
He couldn’t move himself. So, using the magic tools Ariel gave you…
…
Painful groans came from his doorstep. It wasn’t even a single voice. It was difficult to understand because the tone was high and strange, but it was definitely the voice of a blonde priest and a black-haired adventurer.
What are you doing to both of them? Is that amplification actually an act similar to torture?
Niel was terrified.
If so, he could now understand why he had refused to explain details to Niel until now. What did Rebecca say? It’s painful, but not unbearable?
That’s what Rebecca would say. Come to think of it, Rebecca sometimes had a tendency to speak according to her own standards of hers. If Rebecca can barely stand it, then Niel…
…
Not. It wasn’t a painful groan. It was a little different to see it as pain. Like a grunt, like a pleading, yet yearning…
Niel is back. He didn’t even have the confidence to peek into the room.
It was from then.
Niel’s body began to tickle, as if heat was rising.
Where is he and what is he doing now? When he comes back, then…

“I did it, I did it… “
“Shh. Quiet. It’s not completely out of the realm yet.”
In the end, I succeeded in stealing the egg of a creature I don’t know whether it’s a worm, wyvern, or dragon.
The process was really tedious, dangerous and dirty. If I were to write a novel about his achievements, I would have to write 5 pieces of 5700 words.
In order to trick the reptiles’ heat sensor, they spread mud all over their bodies, and sprinkled paralyzed or sleeping fish that these guys brought around. I took advantage of the time he was away to steal the egg, but in case he thought something strange, I even put a rock that looked like an egg on top.
To keep the rock from getting cold, he even put a warming spell on it, and even, as Yuri advised, on the rock to get rid of the monster’s body odor… Let’s stop
Anyway, maybe it was because she had finished such a dirty, difficult, and difficult job, and Tina’s family was happy.
“It’s really great, it’s great. I didn’t know that there would be a subspecies much bigger than information, so I had to give up, but I didn’t expect things to work out this well.”
“But stealing eggs. No matter how much you are a monster, I feel sorry for you…”
Lenny was showing vague sympathy again. In fact, I was a bit embarrassed too. She said that stealing eggs while eating eggs from a factory-style barn feels different. Well, it feels similar to something like pork but not being able to slaughter it yourself.
“Hey, that sounds funny. But you know what? It seems that there are people who sincerely say that they feel sorry for monsters.”
“What?”
Tina made an absurd noise. Being pitiful means that horses are pitiful, monsters are monsters… They will try to eat people if left alone. Goblins, zombies, and even rabbits that we have encountered so far. All of them are belligerent.
“So what… I guess they secretly sneaked in to free those caught in the arena. Maybe that’s why so many requests come in from the arena.”
“…”
Okay. There are people like that even in modern times. Being a vegetarian, he breaks into a barn and steals a piglet… Even the stolen pig died because he didn’t take care of it properly. How come modern times and living here are all similar.
…Is it just a coincidence? It’s pretty embarrassing for something to be a coincidence.
“Anyway, this is really great. Even a subspecies. It’s a subspecies I’ve never seen before. Maybe we’ll get a fixed request. If that happens…”
Tina’s eyes flashed, and she suddenly pulled her arm inside her.
“Hey, would you like to have a fixed party with us?”
The woman’s face swung back to me. Tick-tick movements like the head of a bird chasing its prey! I thought you were doing sword dance!
However, unlike Zinia and Emily, who tremble at the sight of their children, Tina was unstoppable. No, she’s clueless.
“Not only you, but your party was great too. Is the magician over there good at handling magic stones, or the archer there is a hunter? I hadn’t even thought about body odor. Not to mention the priestly support.”
“Ah, thank you..” “…Hmm.”
Yuri and Ariel twisted their bodies at the unexpected compliment, but Lenny didn’t budge. Also Lenny. The priorities are so clear!
Thanks for the offer, but I’ll decline. We have our own business to do.
“Okay? It’s too bad.”
The chill melts away and Lenny sighs, crossing her arms, and Yuri’s steps lighten again.
So we returned to the ruins we had discovered the day before.
