Episode 88. From the days when the (5) arcana

that bloomed in the swamp was a game.

For the players, spirits were a fantasy being.

“No, do spirits really exist?”

“If anyone saw it, it would have already been uploaded to Nettube.”

“Isn’t it like a rice cake thrown away? After raising expectations by just mentioning it. A new class, Elementalist, will appear in the new update!”

I had to think that way too.

Why even the player who witnessed the spirit.

Even if no player had a class related to spirits, it was clear that spirits existed. The stories told by books and NPCs were proof of that.

“But when was the update?”

“There is no such record this week or this time?”

“No wait. I haven’t changed jobs and I’ve been waiting for months?”

But even if it was wrong, it was wrong for a long time.

As I said, the existence of spirits.

It was a rare existence that only a very few could witness.

Naturally, interest in spirits had no choice but to slowly cool down.

There was nothing to say after Arcana became a reality.

A crack appears and monsters roam in reality.

A spirit you don’t even know exists?

Because it was nothing like the sound of catching floating clouds.

“This is breaking news that just came in. It is said that an unidentified message emerged from the rift. We will deliver that message to our viewers right now!”

It was.

Predator Swamp.

Until a message pops up to players who have entered the rift.

[Someone made a contract with the spirit.]

Someone made a contract with the spirit.

“No, the battle must have been full. It’s a contract!”

“Is that also a normal contract? It’s a contract with the spirits. The spirit that only grew rice cakes!”

“For those of us who are just watching, this is hard news to believe.”

In the swamp of predators that is no different from the Coliseum.

Who is the person who said that he made a contract with the spirit?

It wasn’t that difficult to predict.

Wasn’t there only one person?

swampland.

Endless mud fight.

Among them, like a lotus flower that bloomed in a swamp.

Because there was a player who was alone.

That Lee Ho-yeol was clear.

“Look! Did I say there was something?!”

Who is Lee Ho-yeol?

Appropriate level 900-1000 A player who returned intact from a level rift. Like other players, Lee Ho-yeol probably didn’t simply seek out predator cracks for experience.

-In fact, didn’t everyone guess when they came up with the stairs??

– ㅇㅋ So, everyone was looking forward to it hahahahaha

– But is this more than expected?

– The Spirit was unimaginable

.

It wasn’t another player, it was Lee Ho-yeol.

The heightened anticipation.

And it seems natural to have such expectations.

Lee Ho-yeol responded.

“Player Hoyeol Lee never disappoints!”

Predator Swamp Rift.

There was no difference between the players who directly checked the message.

If not, I would have been even more surprised.

“You said you made a contract with the spirits?”

“No, what is it really! Even swordsmanship isn’t enough, so you’re a spirit now?!”

“Stop whining. What messages keep coming to mind?”

A series of messages that come to mind.

It was because the content was not serious.

[Forest Spirit King Dryad blesses the contract.]

[Forest Spirit King Dryad’s blessing dwells in the Devourer’s Swamp.] [

Experience gained in the Predator’s Swamp increases by 20%.

] The value of loot increases by 20%.]

Blessing of the Spirit King.

The effect of the blessing is an increase in experience and loot drop rate.

It has been the rarest buff ever since Arcana was a game. Even players who are familiar with Arcana’s system as well as at higher levels.

“A buff that increases experience and drop rates?!”

“It’s a buff I’ve only seen once or twice.”

“It’s not 10%, it’s a 20% increase…?”

“What a great thing you did again, Lee Ho-yeol!!”

It was that there was no choice but to make a fuss.

I was just guessing.

Rocks let out a laugh.

“You really surpassed my guess.”

Just like the level gap.

It must be that there is a gap between himself and Lee Ho-yeol.

Of course, the picture you see was bound to be different.

“Wow. I didn’t even think of the spirit. also!!”

Nam Tae-min simply exclaimed in admiration.

Still, I prided myself on knowing more about Hoyeol than other players. Ho-yeol’s bowl seemed to be much bigger than he thought.

“…A contract with a spirit? suddenly?”

…It’s hard to get a cup of tea, really.

Is it because of the message or because of the madness of the berserker?

Leonie’s face was full of life.

Because each person has a different relationship with Ho-yeol.

It is natural for each person to react to the message differently.

But one thing was clear.

Someone in the message must be Lee Ho-yeol.

That’s why most of the attention is on the stairs floating in the air.

It was natural for Ho-yeol to lean towards the stairs where he would appear.

NetTubers have already tasted it.

“I will definitely tell you what the spirits look like!”

In fact, what does it mean to know what a spirit looks like?

Just the first title is more important.

yeah i thought so

Again—

“!!!”

Until Ho-yeol shows up.

『Contract with the Spirit』

Even if it is just scratching the surface, it is Grandfel’s strict standard.

I mean, I’ve read a few books on animology.

It means you have basic common sense about spirits. Naturally, he knew what the contract with the spirit meant. So, I was actually relieved.

‘If you meet an intermediate level spirit.’

Information from the Arcana Continent, contracts, and whatnot.

Everything must have been nothing more than a piece of cake.

It was because of the terms of the contract.

『The spirit is closely influenced by the nature of the contractor.』

The nature of the contractor is the overall nature of the contractor.

To put it simply, I am a player.

When considered on a player basis.

‘It must be affected by my status window.’

Senior Elementalist Mage Payyan Lot.

The reason she was a glutton was because of her contract with the spirits.

-“As you can see, I don’t get good gas mileage.”

Higher Fire Spirit Fire Drake.

Fire Drake seemed to be demanding a lot from the contractor, Payyan.

In a word, it was the sound of class value.

Even that relationship was completely severed, so it ended at the level of food, Fei Yan continued with a swollen face like a squirrel.

– “Still, compared to the time when I suffered from magical exhaustion.”

What kind of beings are the senior mages of the Mage Tower?

More than anything else, I had witnessed the amount of magical power he had during his battle with Bangrit Tom.

That’s an overwhelming amount of magical power that I don’t even dare to catch up with.

Because it’s the same senior mage.

There shouldn’t be a big difference between Payyan’s magical power and Bangrit’s.

Yes, it is a higher level spirit.

It was an existence that made even Payyan, who possessed overwhelming magical power, complain of magical exhaustion…!

‘I’m full of lower spirits too.’

So, figuring out the subject came naturally.

furthermore.

“I swear in the name of Dryad, the spirit king of the forest.”

conclusion of the contract.

I started to feel it as soon as the nymph finished speaking.

…the feeling of the wretched mana draining away!

In the meantime, the points acquired through leveling up are invested in magic as if they were all-in. It’s a pity that the mana regenerating ability was raised with the [Sexy Star Brooch] and [Prestige – Duke Swalin’s cherished item]…

A spirit is not a spirit for nothing. Really.

Elementalism was not called the study of the chosen wizards in the Mage Tower for nothing.

However, there is nothing to reveal this embarrassing inside.

I calmly opened my mouth.

“The appearance has changed.”

nature of the contractor.

So, because of my influence, the nymph changed her appearance.

Its body was still as small as a fairy.

For some reason, in such a small body.

Unlike before, it seemed to radiate elegance.

“is that so? This must also be due to Hoyeol’s influence.”

…What was that tone of voice anyway?

A formal tone of voice that doesn’t go against Grandfel’s strict standards.

I just realized

The true meaning of the saying that spirits are affected by the nature of the contractor.

Because I was influenced by Grandfell.

The changed state of the nymph is also understandable.

Wasn’t it me who heard ‘Gyeong’ from Harkon even in the days when there wasn’t much more than now? Even that was not enough, even the effect of the [Aesthetic] stat in the status window.

‘It’s not a low-level spirit just by looking at its appearance.’

What kind of spirit queen are you?

I swallowed my saliva as I looked at the nymph.

This is what a mirror therapy teacher on the other hand is.

‘Thanks to the contract with the pitiful me.’

The appearance of a nymph whose only appearance has become plausible.

bad influence.

I feel a sense of responsibility because I feel like I have colored it.

sincerely.

The nymph looked at her changed figure with a restrained nod.

Elegantly drooping butterfly wings, plentiful and long hair, and clothes that are flawless even with Grandfel’s aesthetic sense.

Then he told me.

“I like my changes. What does Hoyeol think?”

Yeah, I’m glad you like the contract, though.

Still, I wanted to do a burdensome historical drama tone.

The law is the inside because the inside cannot be revealed.

“I have nowhere to point it out.”

The conversation with the nymph ended there.

I immediately reached for the mistletoe.

because I couldn’t afford

‘Even at this moment when we are having a conversation, the mana is draining…

But it wasn’t even enough consumption to spare.

Besides, I checked the message.

A congratulatory message containing the blessings of Dryad, the spirit king of the forest.

‘Experience and drop rate increase buff.’

The blessing was given to [The Predator’s Swamp].

This means that other players enjoy the same effect.

Even if you hesitate a little, there won’t be any monsters left.

It’s a waste of time to whine and blame weakness.

Yes, if your level is not enough, you can raise it.

If it’s a level of magic that can’t be reached just by leveling up.

It could be achieved by chewing and swallowing non-herb.

That means I have a lot of potential.

It was the moment I thought so.

Gently—

the nymph gracefully flew toward the contemplative mistletoe.

“If you need this speculative mistletoe.”

“?”

“I will give you my blessing.”

…a blessing?

What does a sudden blessing mean?

My knowledge of spirits was only scratching the surface.

However, no detailed explanation was necessary.

Slowly—

just one turn.

The nymph only caressed the mistletoe.

Gooooh—

because the light of the mistletoe in contemplation became clearer.

“…!”

As the mistletoe grows, its light grows deeper.

[The pentagram of pure knowledge].

Knowledge of all plants on the Arcana continent acquired through him.

‘Is this by any chance?’

And I witnessed it there.

『Nurture Methods of Non-Medicinal Herbs』

A direction for research with tremendous potential value!

Ttongak─

The sound of shoes coming from above.

The nettubers who were waiting swallowed dry saliva.

“Lee Ho-yeol. No, it looks like Ho-yeol is coming down…!”

There were also broadcasting stations that broadcast the streaming of such nettubers in real time.

Isn’t it a spirit that has been treated like a fantasy existence?

The situation in which the true nature of the spirit is revealed.

It seemed clear that it would be a topic that would record high ratings.

Because that’s not enough.

Who made a contract with such a spirit?

It was Lee Ho-yeol.

“Real-time ratings exceeded 15%…!”

That anticipation was showing up in viewership ratings.

Still, knowledge about the spirits was widely known through Arcana’s books or word of mouth.

Thanks to that, there were also those who saw the situation realistically.

“Because they say that high-ranking spirits are not easily revealed, regardless of their abilities.”

“Even for Lee Ho-yeol, isn’t it easy to sign a contract with a high-ranking spirit?”

“That’s right. But what does class have to do with it? Isn’t it important that you are the first player to sign a contract with a spirit?”

Such an opinion, of course.

The moment Ho-yeol appeared, he disappeared.

The appearance of a winged spirit.

The elegance that flows from every movement.

“Is that a spirit…?”

“What is a halo?”

“That’s more than pretty, it’s beautiful…”

That figure doesn’t fade even by Ho-yeol’s side.

What it meant was simple.

Someone made a fuss and opened their mouth.

“Isn’t that spirit the highest level no matter who sees it, or is it the level of the King of Spirits?!”

.

.

.

Clearly –

I can feel the gaze from all over.

The nymph opened her mouth.

“Surely Ho-yeol is in a place like this.”

Then he spoke gracefully.

“As a Contract Spirit, I will get used to this gaze.”

You’ve been properly stained by Grandfel.

But that’s wise.

Because his personality won’t change.

Nymph, it means that you will be comfortable with adapting.

‘Of course, the focused attention is none of my business.’

Like I said.

I mean, I am a busy person.

Unlike those rankers, my level is not good.

In other words, the experience drop rate buff of 1 minute and 1 second is an unfortunate position.

So I didn’t hesitate.

This is the Predator Zone where the battle never ends.

He immediately took out his sword.

[Level: 324]

I’m still hungry for experience…!
