How to Live as an Illegal Healer Chapter 333

345. Bombing 3

“What the hell are you doing crazy things out of curiosity? My safe deposit box number?”

“I’m not curious about anything like that, but what I’m curious about is related to the magic center.”

“…was that too.”

Dale sighed deeply.

If it’s natural, it’s natural.

If an outsider digs deep into the mage tower business, it was inevitable.

“I don’t have any reason to know, but now that I think about it, there’s no reason to pretend I don’t know.”

“…That’s a top-secret thing that should never be known to anyone outside of the family.”

“So I want to ask you. No matter how friendly Doradel is to me, I don’t think he’ll give me this kind of information.”

If so, you have to ask someone else.

Dail is just bad luck.

“It doesn’t matter if you keep shutting up, but then only your family will be annihilated.”

“Okay, okay.”

Dale hesitated before opening his mouth.

“In fact, there is a terrible curse that has been passed down from generation to generation in our Lophemus family.”

“curse?”

A rather unexpected keyword appeared in Dail’s mouth.

“You should have gone to the church and asked them to release it.”

“Of course the ancestors did everything!”

However, none of the priests were able to lift the family curse, and most of them did not even notice the existence of the curse.

“What the hell is the curse?”

“In our family, it is called ‘The Curse of Orl’.”

“The Curse of Orl?”

Da-il nodded with a hard face.

“It was named after ‘Orl Lophemus,’ who first defined the existence of this curse in our family.”

“When you say that, it seems like a curse from a man named Orl.”

“Well, it was written that the person concerned was satisfied. He said his heart beats when he thinks that his name will be known from generation to generation.”

“I don’t know what he is doing, but he must be an idiot.”

This is the ‘Curse of Orl’ passed down in the Lophemus family.

“Every morning when the sun rises, the mana of the body is lost for no reason, and it is a terrible curse that dies when the mana reaches zero!”

“is that so.”

“In addition, the older you get, the more your magic power is lost… For a wizard, there’s nothing more terrible than this!”

Da-il was trembling, but Kang Seung-hyeon, a man with 0 magical power, listened intently because it was a good story.

“The bottom line is that the reason why the Lophemus family steals the magic tower is because of that curse?”

“okay.”

According to the speculations of the ancestors, Orle’s curse itself begins at birth, but when you are young, the amount of magic recovery is greater than the amount of magic loss, so you just can’t feel it.

“Then, when you get older and the amount of magic recovery can’t handle the amount of magic loss, a full-fledged curse begins.”

In fact, it is said that all middle-aged submasters are suffering from the curse of Orl.

“At my age, if you don’t drink a magic potion every day before going to bed, your life is in danger. But the price is too high and the amount of recovery is not enough…”

“So you touched the center of magic?”

“Because you can easily obtain a large amount of high-quality magic at the magic center.”

For the Lophemus family suffering from magical powers, the center of magical powers gushing out profusely must have looked like an oasis in the desert.

“If the Master and the executives were all cheating, it would be nothing like stealing magical power.”

“Well, the fact that our family stole the mana from the magic center was before I became the real power of the Golden Mage Tower.”

“You are proud.”

As it turns out, the Lophemus family had been dabbling in the magic of the Mage Tower for a long time, even before Doradel sat in the master’s seat and practiced it for 80 years.

“Still, it wouldn’t have been easy to steal it before the Lophemus family took control of the Mage Tower.”

“I must recall the long past and shame of our family for a very long time.”

Da-il opened his mouth with an attitude as if he was putting down a heavy burden.

“It would take 3 hours to explain everything…”

“Please summarize in one line.”

“….”

“one-line summary.”

Of course, Kang Seung-hyeon didn’t like things like other people’s family history, so he decided to listen only to the key summary.

“…A long time ago, my ancestor, who was a member of the Golden Tower, accidentally created a passage leading to the magic center while experimenting with magic.”

“Passage?”

“It must be a by-product of studying dimension shifting, like all wizards.”

In the aftermath of the magic experiment, a sub-space portal was created in the ancestor’s laboratory, and the sub-space was connected to the magical center.

“At that time, the ancestor left a guess in the report you wrote that the created sub-space might have been attracted by the powerful magic in the magical center and turned into a connecting passage…” “So, where is that passage?

”

“Southwest of the Mage Tower. At that time, the ancestor’s laboratory was in the southwest.”

“Isn’t the southwest side recently closed because of a fire?”

“I know you well. Right now, it doesn’t matter because I can come in and out freely without having to use the secret passage.”

“Anyway, it means that the people of the Lophemus family made a secret passage and stole magic.”

How or why the passage was made is fine.

The bottom line is that such a passage was created, and the important thing is that the Rophemus family used it to embezzle magic in earnest.

“This is not a family that leads a completely golden tower, but parasites living and living in the golden tower.”

“Oh, it can’t be helped! We’re not doing this because we like it, we’re doing it to live!”

Just as a parasite parasitizes on its host to live on its own, the Lophiermus family also learned how to survive by parasitizing on the Golden Mage Tower to withstand the curse.

“Until then, the average lifespan in our family was only 50! Does this make sense?”

“For a citizen of the Azul continent, you live a long life. This is a town where there are many people who meet monsters and die when they are less than 30 years old.”

“They are powerless commoners! We are noble families!”

‘The nobility’s grumbling over food has begun again.’

“Originally, wizards live twice as much as other people! My family was in a bizarre state where wizards had a shorter lifespan than ordinary people!”

A family with a curse to die when magic power reaches 0.

According to common sense, magic would be stored and used conserved as much as possible, but there are many mages who are crazy about research, so most of them died early.

“And restoring mana through external means is also a temporary measure. The amount of mana consumed increases endlessly, but there is a limit to increasing the maximum amount of mana.”

Even if you endure while recovering your mana, one day your mana consumption will exceed your maximum mana.

If that happens, he will die without even having time to recover his mana.

“No one lives forever, but like us, there are few people who live feeling the day of their death approaching day by day…

”

The story is pitiful, but it has nothing to do with the tyranny of the Lophemus family.

“What will happen if I sell this to an information dealer…”

“What?”

What if this information reaches the ears of the church?

Not only would the Golden Mage Tower collapse, but the line of Lophemus would also be cut off.

“Then there is no reason for me to tell you! I opened my mouth to save my family!”

“just joke. If the mage tower collapses, my money will be gone, so what am I going to sell it for?”

I don’t know if the golden mage tower is useless.

It’s better to leave it alone for now.

“Keuk….”

In other words, immediately when there is no need! Because it meant to dispose of it, it was as if the fate of the magic tower and the family were in Kang Seung-hyeon’s hands.

‘Are we being played by this bastard from the beginning to the end?’

If you think about it, the reason why you have been telling Kang Seung-hyun all kinds of family secrets is because of false accusations and threats. The person who framed and threatened you is also Kang Seung-hyeon, and if you think about the incident that led to the false accusation, it happened because of the battle royale held by Kang Seung-hyun. .

‘Matthiana is a ruined year …. Why did you recommend this baby!’

Even if he wasn’t involved with Kang Seung-hyun in the first place!

Dail cursed Matiana for no reason and gnashed his teeth.

“What on earth do you do to make your entire family suffer this curse?”

It is not uncommon for descendants to suffer from a curse as a result of the karma of their ancestors, but it is extremely rare for a curse that the priests cannot deal with for hundreds of years.

“Usually, even if you can’t completely remove the curse, it’s possible to weaken it.”

“I don’t know. The curse itself is revealed after the coming-of-age ceremony, but only the head of the household knows why such a curse has descended on our family.”

It is said that the event that caused the curse is passed down from mouth to mouth only when the previous head of the family handed over the position of head of the family to the next head of the family.

“Isn’t there a scroll or something written about the incident?”

“Doradel-sama said it was a taboo among taboos, so it couldn’t be documented.”

So, at this point, the only one who knows about the cause of the curse is Doradel, the head of Lophemus.

“Originally, someone from my older generation would have taken over the position of head of household, heard the story, and would have passed it on to the next head of household…

”

“That’s how it is.”

Doradel not only held the position of Master of the Mage Tower, but in fact was the deceased among the deceased who held the position of Head of the House for 80 years.

“From the time a person is born until the day they die, they hold the title of master and head of household… Is this why Doradel-sama is making a fuss about it?”

“Before we were born, you were both head and master, and your magical skills are amazing…” “

But the Lophemus family all say that their lives are short because of a curse, so why does Doradel live so long?”

Although it went up slightly thanks to the embezzlement of magical power, the average life expectancy of the Lophearmus family was still miserable for a wizard family.

However, as if Doradel was ignoring the family curse, she passed the age of 100 lightly and was on the verge of reaching 120 years old.

“How can I know that?”

“You don’t know that either?”

“…If I knew that, my mother and father would still be alive.”

“This is an incredibly longevity even by the standards of ordinary wizards.”

“It’s a curse that increases magical power consumption as you get older, so don’t you think Doradel lives a long time because of the enormous amount of magical energy she possesses?”

Da-il shook his head and muttered, but Kang Seung-hyeon felt a little uncomfortable.

‘No matter how much mana I have, the amount of mana lost every day will increase like a snowball?’

It’s a simple calculation, but it doesn’t make sense to live this long.

‘For this to be possible, the possessed magic power must exceed that of a human being…’

Or there is some other reason.
