Episode 402. Equivalent Exchange (1)
Magic Tower.
A separate room for the Healing School.
What replaced the warm sunlight was Bellier’s smile.
But lately, the private room has been gloomy.
It must be because of the tightly closed office door.
Skilled mage Klee sighed.
‘You’re overdoing it, Mr. Bellier.’
What is the biggest worry of wizards skilled in healing magic?
Neither is the study of the next regular conference.
It is also not possible to enter the Arcana continent.
It was none other than the comfort of senior mage Bellier.
several months already.
She never stops researching to find a way to purify dragons that have swallowed the fruit of the World Tree and have fallen.
Shuk.
Klee’s gaze shifted to his study on the desk.
I headed for the document with 『How to Grow Non-Medicinal Herbs』 written on it.
Thanks to the generous help of Chief Lee Ho-yeol.
Great progress has been made in research.
I even found out important information that grown elixirs are transformed into elixirs.
That’s why Klee volunteered to help with Bellier’s research.
It is the seed of the world tree.
Originally, it was as much as it had to bear the precious tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
I wondered if its properties were in line with non-medicinal herbs, and if so, I wondered if my own research could be of any help.
“after.”
But it wasn’t easy.
“…I wanted to help.”
“Shouldn’t Klee have a break too?”
“huh?”
“It’s a research that Senior Bellier can’t easily come up with an answer to. It’s natural that skilled mages like us can’t find an answer right away because it’s overdoing it.”
concerned glances.
I touch the roughened skin in that gaze.
The skilled mages were right.
Velie Yusia.
She was also one of the brilliant talents of the Mage Tower of the present age. Every regular conference, the quality research she poured out was evaluated as greatly advancing healing magic.
Compared to her, Klee himself.
“…”
He was just a skilled mage who couldn’t complete even one study. talent gap. Moreover, if you add the gap in experience accumulated as a senior and skilled…
‘Of course, it’s not much help.’
Maybe I was doing something pointless, I didn’t know.
But Claire knew.
that time doesn’t wait
“No, I’ll try a little more.”
Even when you are discouraged.
The evil that the dragon swallowed.
That you’re making them taint.
Furthermore.
Shuk.
The gaze toward the senior’s office.
“You’re not giving up, are you, senior?”
despite not having any success.
Because Bellier’s heart was not broken.
So Claire couldn’t give up either.
Sseuseuk.
Clee, who was left alone in the private room, calmly wrote down the concept of cultivating medicinal herbs on parchment paper. It was only an unfinished study, but it contained information obtained from Chief Lee Ho-yeol, not from anyone else.
──────
Non-herb requires a lot of vitality in the process of growing. If enough life force and nutrients are absorbed, the elixir will be transformed into an elixir. If you think about it by replacing the seeds and fruits of the world tree with the relationship between the elixir and the
elixir
…
“Whoa.”
Klee stood in front of Bellier’s office door, parchment in hand. Rather than help, I was worried that it might be a hindrance to my concentration.
sneak
‘This is my best.’
In the end, Clee slipped the parchment gently into the crack in the door.
After a long time, I left the private room of the healing school.
And I heard the news that was rampant in the Magic Tower.
“yes? Is that true?!”
When Klee asked back, Jibril, the tall man of the Mage’s Tower, nodded.
“Did you see me lying, Claire? Is it really? The imperial capital, Antonium, has been shut down! The faces of the adventurers who returned to the Mage Tower through the portal turned white…!”
It was unexpected news.
The chatter did not reach my ears.
With a heavy heart, Klee returned to the separate room of the Healing School.
It was to retrieve the parchment.
‘…even if it wasn’t so, he would be disturbed by the news.’
Shaking my head.
After all, I was not confident.
I am sure that my research will be of help.
Don’t waste your time on useless information.
Cle was about to go to Bellier’s office.
“…uh?”
wide open.
The door to Bellier’s office was open.
The parchment that had been stuck in the crack in the door was also gone.
Bellier asked the skilled wizard guarding the private room.
“What about Bellier?”
“Didn’t we meet? Of course, when you’re just away…”
“Why? What is it?”
“Senior Velier has been permitted to enter the Arcana Continent. I heard that you are going to go out with Matisse Dean Carle and senior Bensh William… Oops!”
The skilled mage delivered an important message.
“He asked me to tell him that it was all thanks to you.”
“…is it because of me? what? no way?”
“that’s right! You seem to have gotten some clues from your research? Did your face regain vitality after a long time? You know when you see that the private room is bright, right?”
“…Is that really true?”
Claire was taken aback by that statement.
The reason why I was worried while pacing in front of the office until the end was clear.
It was because no fundamental solution came to mind.
Even if the idea was lucky enough to fit.
‘It’s not easy to obtain a vast amount of life force enough to sprout whole seeds from the seeds of the world tree that has already been corrupted. It’s because the birth itself is different from the common non-medicine…’
While thinking about it, Klee’s pupils shook.
“…!”
On the desk in the open office.
The magic book Bellier had opened came into view.
It was because the title amplified the foreboding.
『The play of healing magic / Author: Leras Thiel』
*
Leras Thiel.
He was an extreme healing wizard.
Shall we say that he is different from ordinary healing wizards as well as himself? I once said this during a lecture on healing magic.
– “Doubtful? Its personality and radical ideas seem at odds with healing magic. Of course, I also don’t like Leras Thiel’s research very much. Especially since his end was like a typical mage tower wizard.”
The pinnacle of healing magic.
Leras Till died to prove his research. It was no different from being burnt to death while approaching the truth like the sun.
But prejudice has changed.
‘I don’t know Klee, but I never thought the day would come when I would be grateful to you.’
Bellier was swallowing the words inside.
Suddenly, a growling sound tickled my ears.
Nam Tae-min activated [Berser] and jumped up to the height of Bellier, who was levitating. Belle was startled. Also an adventurer. growth rate is fast
“To the rear… avoid.”
The aftermath of the berserk.
Compared to the past, when I couldn’t speak with respect, let alone human words, I’ve improved, but those words were still short. But Belle didn’t care.
instead.
Acquired according to the teachings of Chief Lee.
He recalled the common sense of adventurers.
“If it’s from the rear, is that it? I heard that adventurers have common sense. Those with excellent defense and vitality are in charge of the front, and those who can support them are waiting in the rear… That’s right. Tank dealer healer. Am I right?”
To Bellier’s question, Hisagi Leoni nodded.
But Belle rather shook her head.
Although the consideration was really appreciated.
“By the way, do you know?”
“What are you talking about?”
“The magic tower is called an existence beyond common sense on the Arcana continent.”
It was Prosnax with the intent to kill.
Will you not tolerate even trivial conversations?
A cold wind gushed out of his wings, as if tearing his skin.
At this moment, according to the player’s common sense, Bellier was in a dangerous position.
however.
pod.
Bellier’s rust-colored hair tumbled and soon radiated warmth to the area. It was not just verbal warmth, but a warmth that really touched the skin, or a system message.
[The warmth keeps the body in top condition.]
“…!!!”
That wasn’t all.
self.
The warmth emitted by Bellier completely offset the coldness of Prosnax. Nam Tae-min and Leonie’s faces turned red. With a buff like this, you should be able to move your body regardless of the cold.
That’s right.
Instead of saying thanks, he ran out.
The Prosnax guy stretched out his claws at the Kürnberg mechanical tower.
Because the entire mechanical tower is made of silver.
Originally, he had to deal considerable damage to the fallen evil dragon.
Hisagi’s eyes narrowed.
‘I can’t believe they’re compatible like this.’
Snuggle Geek—!
The creaking of gears scratched my eardrums.
It’s because of frost on the cogs from Prosnax’s cold.
The movement of the Kürnberg machine tower must have been abnormal.
Soon, the gaze toward Bellier.
‘And it’s not something to just be happy about.’
I was able to recognize it because it was a magic spear.
Bellier, who received the cold wind from Prosnax a moment ago, must have consumed a considerable amount of mana. It was because he received the dragon’s blow with sincerity.
Hisagi gritted his teeth gently.
‘…Does she believe in us as the head of the Mage Tower?’
[Warmth] Will they be able to play an active part in the battle against Prosnax enough to receive the buff? Hisagi wasn’t sure. However, Bellier’s judgment cannot be overlooked.
fault.
I stomped my feet after the two of them.
Crow, wow, wow—!
Prosnax, who destroyed one of the machine towers of Kirnberg.
Bellier watched the crusade allies charge at the roaring one.
A smile came out involuntarily.
“So that’s why you’re such a mess?”
Death fight with Yunaxus.
Taemin Nam Tae-min Hisagi Leoni was Bellier who healed the trio himself.
Thanks, I was able to guess.
Even if you’re free from the bitter cold, you won’t last a few minutes.
“Because I keep in mind the lessons of the 1st Dragon Demon War.”
When the dragon stepped into the Crystal Hall of the Mage Tower?
In fact, I was relieved.
I didn’t think I’d be exchanging magic with those ridiculous monsters in my entire life. But life just wasn’t going my way. Of course, I had no intention of resentment.
“That shouldn’t be it, Marcelo?”
If everything went as planned. You, who suffered from the curse of a time-limited person
, would not have been a person of this world
by now .
So Bellier was thinking of doing his part.
A way to purify the fallen dragon by swallowing the evil fruit.
Inspired by Klee’s correspondence.
Elixir herbs and elixirs.
If you think of that relationship…
a vast vitality. That’s right, if it’s a life force so vast that it can sprout even the evil fruits that have been corrupted and rotted. Perhaps even in the evil department, the world tree could sprout and suppress the dragon’s corruption.
“Theoretically, it’s possible, Claire.”
Belle laughed.
“Even with Chief Lee’s help, it would be a blessing.”
However, Klee added that the problem was that such a vast amount of life force could not be saved. But Belle knew. Exactly, I came up with it while looking through various books.
Leras Till.
The pinnacle of healing magic.
The signature of Leras Til recorded in the Mage Tower is as follows.
『Leras Til has expressed the ultimate in healing magic. By converting his entire body and mind into life force, he manifested the extremes of healing magic close to the truth…] Whether or not
it was truly close to the truth is unknown, but considering the meaning of truth in the Mage’s Tower, Its power was proven.
“Then where shall we begin?”
Bellier intended to express such a drama.
“The last healing magic of Yusiah in Velier.”
Why did you pour your magic from the start?
Simple.
It was the ultimate form of healing magic that sacrificed body and mind instead of magical power.
There was no need to leave precious magic in the body.
Bellier’s healing magic covered the allied forces of the Crusade that were being pushed back.
self.
“It’s the future, you guys.”
Even if it’s absurdly weak right now, there is a possibility for adventurers. Of course, I didn’t think they would be able to grow as much as Lee Ho-yeol.
“Shouldn’t it be at the level of our chief’s limbs?”
Therefore, Belier helps them gain experience.
I thought I’d do my best to help.
Yes, until the magic power remains.
Until the ultimate manifestation of healing magic.
But as I said.
Everything doesn’t go the way you think.
Was it because he suddenly poured out all his magic power?
“Sigh.”
Crying—
the moment when I held the blood that flowed back from my throat into my mouth.
A voice was heard.
“I’ll ask you, Senior Mage Yusia in Velie.”
“…!”
“The principle of purifying the fruit of evil and the entire process.”
“…the chief?”
.
.
.
wait for a sec.
…what?
Extreme healing magic that must be manifested at the risk of one’s life?!
[The Last Adventurer: You will not die on the Arcana continent. Upon death, you return to reality immediately and cannot access the Arcana continent for a certain period of time. – Cooldown: 24 hours]
No, if it was like that, tell me!
