Chapter 235 – It’s a Ghost!

“Pampaka-ppa~ Yandel has succeeded in strengthening!”

I informed them of the good news, but for some reason, the only thing that came back was the look of a madman.

Too bad.

The moment when you want to get a little gloomy. The righteous light cried and rushed at it.

“Oh, give it back! Give Clara back!”

It’s a bit pitiful to see him clinging to me as if he’s half clinging to me, struggling to stretch out his hand.

I think I’m misunderstanding something… Well, it’s because it’s fun.

He waved the medallion he held high at eye level.

“Clara? Ah… You mean this?”

“Kyaaaaah!”

Righteous light snatches the medallion while crying.

The irregularly vibrating medallion instantly became quiet. And the righteous Gwangmyeong, who was welling with tears, also shut his mouth.

Did you think I had done something? Carla asked cautiously.

“I… Master? What the hell did you do with Clara… ?”

“Oh, it’s nothing. Just…”

After I stopped talking for a while, I could clearly feel that the eyes around me were focused.

Only the righteous light is staring blankly at the medallion.

The moment I was about to say something behind my back.

Rumble!

It started to deafen with a sound resembling thunder.

It’s not because the chimeras who crossed the barrier with Clara disappearing howled ferociously.

This is because the dungeon that lost its owner could not maintain the distorted space and time, and was returning to its original form.

A space collapsing with a rumble. Boundaries and borders are blurred, and colors invade and mix with each other.

Even the sense of time became jagged, raising a smirk in the scenery where the surroundings repeated slow motion and fast motion.

“I just reinforced the medallion with the ego medallion.”

“… Yes?”

Carla tilted her head as if she still didn’t know what she was talking about. But before I could answer anything, the distortion around me intensified, and it flashed as it did, turning my vision white.

When I came to my senses belatedly, we were all alone in the middle of the desert.

In the air, there were floating rewards indicating the completion of the dungeon.

***

A desolate desert, devoid of chimera’s distinctive stench, loud cries, and alertness.

I took a big breath in the dry wind mixed with sand and held the cluster of lights floating in the air in my hand.

Pah ah

The brilliance disappeared in an instant when he took something out of his hand. As I slowly open my palm, a small but luxurious glass bottle reveals itself.

Tring!

======================

【The first dew on the world tree】

The goddess of life and the goddess of healing. And the elven guardian deity, Circulating Life.

It is the dew that forms on the highest leaf of the World Tree, another form of her.

However, do not be fooled by the clear and refreshing scent. What came out of the body of a god is too much for a mortal.

This is definitely a divine water that can cause miracles, but miracles will come at a price.

-Perfect recovery of vitality, mana, aura, and holy power

-Overrecovers 500% of maximum health in the form of a shield

-Recovers all status ailments except death

-50% chance of body transformation, 30% chance of mental breakdown, 10% chance of death

======================

Hmm. It’s still a bloody intro

In fact, the dew on the World Tree itself is not that dangerous. Even though it’s very rare, it’s a great cure.

One of the complete recovery medicines that are said to remain even after seeing the ending because they cherished them so much is the dew of the world tree.

However, the problem is that this is the first dew.

The dew on the World Tree is dew, not the dew that is created by moisture.

World tree… To be precise, the circulating life resting in the huge tree as its sanctuary is a grace bestowed from time to time for the elves.

It’s like an essence filled with the power of healing, but it’s said that it’s diluted and sprinkled to make it in large quantities.

One drop on the highest leaf falls to the bottom and becomes two drops, and the dew that falls in this way becomes four drops again.

The result of repeating this process until it falls on the lowest leaf is the dew on the World Tree.

The result of dilution and dilution is complete recovery. How powerful is the first dew, which can be called a concentrated undiluted solution?

It would be natural for it to become a problem and be destroyed in an attempt to become overflowing with vitality.

At least it’s vitality, so there’s a 10% chance of surviving without any side effects.

If you drink that much mana or aura… 100% chance Boom! And your body will explode.

Anyway, now that I’ve got the last piece, I’ll have to finish my work.

While everyone was dizzy because he suddenly left the dungeon in a form close to banishment.

He held out his hand to the righteous Gwangmyeong, who was holding the medallion tightly.

“Can you give me a minute?”

“… Huh.”

After all, is God a god? Even though my mind had come down and many things were limited, I handed over the medallion obediently, as if he had noticed what I was about to do.

The received medallion vibrates gently. As if he was protesting, he had a docile appearance that was different from before.

Clara probably knows that I’m trying to help her.

I whispered softly to Clara, who was listening from inside.

“Do you have to pay this back later?”

Then, with telekinetic magic, he opened the bottle containing the first dew of the World Tree.

Pong.

The stopper pulled out with a cute sound. The cool scent that refreshes your mind fills the surroundings.

Even if you take this, the dizziness that remained like motion sickness disappears.

Perhaps the same is true of the other party who were flirting, they stand up and look this way.

Feeling that gaze, I looked at the medallion for a while.

I’ve been playing H&A for a long time, but I haven’t been able to find any new elements or strategy.

But I also had one strategy worth bragging about.

Hidden Peace about the last saint, Clara, is exactly that.

Clear the dungeon on the way from the academy to the Great Battle of Solaris to get Clara’s medallion.

After equipping this new Saint of Righteous Light, find a scenario dungeon in the desert and interact with Clara and her Saint.

If you do that, the residual thought that was trying to disperse after losing its place will be tied to the object filled with the thought of the previous life.

This is only a temporary phenomenon.

Communication was only possible through vibration, and after a week, Clara’s thoughts would become Buddha again.

At that time, I freaked out and immediately loaded the save file.

After some trial and error, I found a way to fix Clara. Surprisingly, the answer was found nearby.

The reward for the scenario dungeon where Clara appears. She just needs to use the World Tree’s first dew on a medallion.

It is an item with enormous life force that causes side effects if a living person drinks it.

Even a residual thought without a soul would be enough to benefit from it.

Of course, reviving or something like that would be impossible, but… It will be able to dwell in the Medallion for at least 100 years.

As a bonus, the power that can be exerted while dwelling in the medallion is slightly stronger.

As it has always been, I poured dew all at once onto the medallion, hoping that the information at H&A would not change in reality.

Squeeze… Pop.

Because the capacity is so small, it pours out all the contents in an instant.

The moment the dew touched the medallion, every bit of it was absorbed. Thanks to this, the medallion, which had intact vitality without spilling on the floor, began to shine.

She had been embracing Clara and shed soft rays of light, but now she was blinded.

I closed my eyes for a moment in the enormous amount of light, but only opened them again when the light was about to disappear.

“Ah.”

In its place stood a translucent woman made of the light emitted by the medallion.

Long white hair. Transparent skin. Pure white dress. And emerald eyes.

A woman who must have been white in her underwear was looking down at her body with a bewildered expression.

Then, when their eyes met, Clara paused and pursed her lips.

She didn’t know what to say and seemed to be at a loss, so she decided to get her words out there first.

“Surprise~”

-What is the surprise? Please tell me about this in advance. Do you know how surprised I, Kwangmyeong-nim, and Helena were?

“But… This one is more fun.”

-… Although it is.

Clara has a sullen expression, but the corners of her mouth quiver as if she’s trying to hold back a laugh.

Clara reappears while her friends are astonished. The righteous light slowly approached and hugged Clara.

But her outstretched arm cut through the air and distorted her Clara’s figure, but she couldn’t actually touch it.

“Ah.”

The righteous Gwangmyeong let out a sigh close to a sigh, probably regretting this.

Clara giggled at her droopy ears and her tail.

-I am okay. Are you grateful just for holding on to the residual thoughts that should have disappeared in the first place?

“Yes. I’ll find a way though. Did you use the divine power stored in the medallion to appear like this? After all, it’s based on my strength, so there must be a way. Right now, it’s a bit difficult because the circulating power of life is also mixed in, but…”

A righteous Gwangmyeong nodded with a serious face. However, it seemed that the time limit had run out, and the ears and tail began to flicker as if they would disappear.

Then, shortly after, the righteous luminary released the strong god and handed control over her back to Helena.

Helena opened her eyes slowly, blinking her eyes into her usual gold.

“Um…”

The focus, which had been lost for a while, came back clearly. And the moment he finds the translucent Clara waving awkwardly in front of her eyes.

“Kyaaaaa!! It’s a ghost, brother!!!”

I screamed and drew my mace.

No, why are you taking up a weapon while being afraid?
