Chapter 41
15 # Dreaming Boy
“Khh!”
Pedro whizzing in shock from a jaw.
However, he hurriedly stepped back from War Meiji, aiming at me, and casting a spell.
Electric Shock
Bolt Knuckles
Supportive positions!
Triple honor.
Quite skilled.
Unfortunately for him, I am virtually brain-dependent immunity, equipped with thunderbolts in addition to possession of the cerebral cortex trait.
I walked towards Pedro.
Supportive positions!
Pa!
All the flying magic was right. The energy emanating from the Wizard’s Full-width Magic of the 30s blends into magical power.
“Ahhhh! You monster! Who the hell are you? ”
Pedro panicked when his confident enchantment didn’t work at all.
On the contrary, I am energized by my whole body. It may be a simple mistake, but I feel like I won’t be able to fight anyone right now.
Somehow, the distance was sufficiently narrowed.
I took my thunder and started beating him with my fist.
Pa-bak! Phew! Phew!
“Hnng!”
The sound of a pig’s throat echoes throughout the town. As I massaged Pedro’s entire body, I hit him hard near the stars.
“Cough!”
Pedro falls unconscious and crashes into the street.
“You win.”
I shortened the situation and looked back, and the whole group was staring at me with a mute look. I feel like I’ve been seeing a lot of those reactions lately.
Isn’t it about time you got used to it?
I turned away from them and approached Pedro, who fainted. Searching through his arms, he pulls something out of his hand.
“· · found. ”
The item I retrieved from Pedro was a fabulously glowing red orb. I knew this guy had it in his time.
Recovered [McGuffin No.548/ Transporter of Respinel .]
[Achievement Points + 500]
Message indicating the retrieval of McGuffin.
I glanced at this and laughed.
In fact, I could have left town right after I woke up. If I had, I wouldn’t have had a fight with Pedro like I do now. Still, the reason I waited here was because of the possibility that Pedro might have this item.
Corespinel
[Level: 0]
[Description: Suspension Status.]
Respinnel’s core.
This appeared at the beginning of Part 3 of the original manuscript, which was stored in the Alfanium Library, the main source of Alchemy.
However, there was an implication in the first part of the novel that Pedro had a red glowing jewel. I personally guessed that the jewels he had might be referring to this Lespinel, but the message that came to his mind seemed to have been correct.
Originally, Pedro was taken to the lab at the Alphanium Library in Epio, and perhaps in the process Lespinel also entered the library’s warehouse.
What’s important is the use of this gemstone.
It’s a little longer to explain.
In the world view of ‘Le Daeyeon’, there is a peculiar species called the ‘Gentiles’.
Their main body, ‘Core’, looks like a small jewel, which combines the role of the heart and brain when struck by humans.
What I’m holding here is a core of the Protestants named Lespinel.
The guillotine adds various metals or mechanical parts around this core, and can treat it as if it were my body. Unlimited self-adaptation and enhancement.
You can ask whether it is just a machine, not a living creature. However, the Protestant churches say that it is a living creature with a soul. It was a bit different from the normal human form, but as you can see by looking at [Level: 0], they also had character sheets.
In general, they appear to be artificial life created in the Mado Empire era, and it is unclear whether in the setting house or in the manuscript about the orthodox reception.
[Description: Suspension Status.]
As you can see by looking at the sheets, they are now suspended, but if you do something special, you can awaken your sleeping self. Since the Gentiles are long-lived and sure of the Silver Garden, if you ask them to help me for 20 years in return for waking me up, they will agree without any worries.
Da Da Da Doc ─
“I warn you in the name of Lord Herus! Everybody, freeze! ”
You hear dozens of footsteps, and dozens of ranged security forces surround you.
“You’re early. ”
I shouted to the security guard with a slight tongue.
“Take this crazy alchemist with you! I was trying to take possession of property directly from the lord Frank! ”
“Oh, I see! ”
The attitude of the head of the guard became very polite after selling the name of Lord Herus.
In the process of explaining the situation, I presented copies of the contract related to the limitless brainstones, and the security guards confirmed that the Lord’s Seal had been stamped, and they took Pedro into custody in a serious manner.
Pedro thought he was going to kill me and run south somewhere and launder his identity, but he won’t be able to get away from the Fellowship of the Flying Grand Duke in the north.
“So, Grand Duke of the stroke family? ”
“If you’re uncomfortable, don’t be polite, just call me whatever you feel comfortable with. I’m frustrated by everything I hear. ”
“Haha · · Noblelords can speak a little. So, what’s the deal with this guy? I heard from the villagers that these people, Pedro, were hired by alchemists. ”
“· · · Wait a minute. ”
I reached out to one of the sheriffs and approached a group of Demihumans staring this way.
“Who are you, subleaders? ”
“· · · You know that, I guess you know about the structure of our clan at the time. ”
A hissing sound.
But I’m more fluent than the other kids.
The person who answered my question was a woman who resembled a lizard.
When dispatching mid to large numbers, the Quentil Clan must dispatch one of its finest headliner resources to discriminate, known as a ‘subleader’. Sub-leaders often take the place of other dark Demihuman mercenaries on water vessels, such as headovers and negotiations.
In other words, she speaks fluently.
“I thank you for not getting into a fight. But the fact that you are mercenaries hired by Pedro is immutable. I’m a pretty tall man in human societies.If I get caught by the security guards like this, I’ll be quite annoyed. It’s unfair, but he may be punished for it with a beating like Pedro. ”
“What are you trying to say? ”
“I have a personal relationship with the lord here. Do me a small favor and I’ll use that connection to buy you clean. ”
“Mmm-hmm. A favor? ”
“It’s nothing. All you have to do is tell one more story to the Quentil Clan master, Kubri Rendi Rollango. ”
“A story?”
“Yes. Tell me you know the whereabouts of a man named ‘Lavalvea.’ ”
“· · · Is that all you ask? ”
“Why, is it weird? ”
“No, it’s not that hard. It’s a pleasure.”
When I heard the answer, I told the security guard, ‘These mercenaries have been actively cooperating in catching Pedro, so there is no need to restrain them.’ I said.
However, in contrast to the testimony of the residents, it is easy to see that there is a flaw in my story. I gave Lord Herus a proper name, and I calmly withdrew, knowing that the guards would not interfere from their lines.
The fact that the Demihuman mercenaries are obscuring the fight between our group and Pedro is true, as long as I actively defend myself, the book grip is ambiguous.
Face off with mercenaries from the Quentil Clan and make connections with the twelve members of the Cubri clan.
This is the third reason I’ve come to Mirsen.
For reference, the man I just mentioned in my conversation with the Stone Chiefs is a right-wing warrior, a longtime friend of Quvri. He disappeared five years ago for some reason, so I’m sure Kuby would be interested in hearing this story.
In order to get the elixir of the Wing of Non-Profit (S), we need to borrow the power of the Demihumans, including him, so we have to do a preliminary task.
The situation was short-lived.
The Demihuman Mercenaries have fled before the guards could change their horses, and Pedro is locked in a dungeon at the Lord’s Palace, awaiting trial.
We left Mirsen with the villagers returning.
I received 10 platinums from the lord, Frank, for repairing the limitless brainstones, and my pockets became thicker.
Thunderstruck with lightning strikes.
Self-inflicted with thunder.
Swallow Infinite Brainstone.
Charge towards the Flying Lightning Spell.
One of the elite knights, the Wolfgang, rethinks what I’ve done in the village and gives me a hollow tongue.
“If you keep hanging out with your boss like this, I’ll run out of liver in a year. ”
I’m just getting started, but it’s no use being surprised.
Well, I won’t be hanging out with him or three elite knights for long.
0.
After I possessed Aiden, I put together a list of peer candidates to recruit in the process of raising a clan.
Write down hundreds of characters and share who to capture first.
The conditions considered during this process were varied.
0. How likely is it to be related to a low number of McGuffin?
1. How high or useful are they? (Usually Lv. 50 and higher)
2. Is someone I can easily control?
3. How easy it is to recruit.
4. Does your disposition or values fit well with other colleagues?
It is important first in the order of the numbers attached. However, gaining an overstep on other items resulted in some negative factors being taken into account and a higher priority.
So, after organizing the recruitment list, the fellow candidates were first divided into four tiers: 0 to 3.
There are a total of three ‘zero-tiers’ that must be made as colleagues.
Epio, the main character.
And the Witch of the Sun, Clara, Lepindarks and Aldermar.
Other people have zero tiers, but this one is closer to a half tier, to be exact. There are many reasons why they are relatively lower in priority than those two.
Since Epio and Clara are both very close-knit characters with their original McGuffin, I must manage them closely. I will run as soon as the time comes and pick it up.
Second tier.
Given that three people in Tier 0 are unique in many ways, they may in fact be the top candidates for recruitment.
Chesha is also a member, with scores close to full on items 1 through 4. Her priorities therefore rank highest among all tiers.
Sotiro, who bought it in Black Shi and married her to the Eutland Street, is two tiers. Unfortunately the level is a bit lacking, but not to a large extent, it can be moderately soldered with good characteristics. Above all, it is virtually a perfect score on items 2 and 3.
Again, this is a result of considering as many conditions as possible, rather than standing in pure order of ability. Even when the potential level exceeds 60, there are characters that are classified as three tiers because they are completely failures in 2 or 4 items.
Two months outside of Herus territory.
We have arrived at a small territory near the border between the Republic of Lalanta and the Knights of Baskaya. I set foot in a slum within it.
Maximilian asked me.
“· · Confucius, is there really anything to see in this place? no matter how much you look at it, it’s just a favela. ”
“I have something very important to tell you. ”
Of course, three elite knights did not hear about setting up the visions.
Therefore, unlike the two women who follow me quietly, it is a curious feeling of curiosity in the strange walk I show.
But you must stop by here.
There are those who exceed the maximum score in item three of the recruitment criteria.
And he belongs to the same Tier 1 recruitment candidate as Chesha.
