Chapter 720 – Fables
Seong-il suddenly realizes why Yuna made an emergency call, and she puts on an understanding expression.
“Wait… That’s like that?”
Seong-il feels a good idea pass through her head at Yuna’s words. He visits Yuna’s studio without hesitation to check out the newly created items.
“Oh… This is…”
Seong-il visits Yuna’s workshop and receives a ring made of her copper from her. The ordinary copper-colored ring was studded with small letters that looked like runes, and each word was densely packed with magic power.
“Ohh… Is this?”
“Yes! It’s an artifact created by disassembling the teleportation ring the owner gave me!”
Yuna calmly begins her explanation of the artifacts she has produced. Unlike the teleportation ring, which had no problems with repeated use except for the once-per-month use limit, she explained that the runic ring she made had the disadvantage of being destroyed immediately after using it once.
“In addition… The distance is 50 km, half of the existing teleportation ring…”
Perhaps because she is a half-native compared to the existing ring, Yuna looks at her holy day and notices her faceless expression.
“How is this production going?”
“It’s hard to do in bulk… I can make one or two a week.”
A teleportation ring that unexpectedly takes a lot of work. Although the process itself is not very difficult, she says that mass production is difficult because stability is guaranteed only when it is meticulous. Plus she can’t do anything else while she’s crafting the ring herself, which is a bonus.
“Hmm… Aside from that, it takes a while for you not to be able to do anything else…”
“Yeah… But, it’s not surprising that there isn’t a solution.”
“Hmm…?”
Yuna unexpectedly explains that the psychic people in the Pocket Girls world are quite talented at such manual work. She explains that she is naturally capable enough to have developed psychic powers and has a good concentration, so it is surprisingly fun to have them work on them.
“Ohh…”
“So if I get Red and the other kids to carve runes whenever I have time, I’ll be able to produce one or two a week even if I don’t waste time.”
“Good?”
When Seong-il’s reaction is unexpectedly not bad, Yuna’s expression starts to loosen slightly. It seems that she has gained confidence, and she is the doctor of the world of Gaia System and Pocket Girls. She says she intends to work with faculty from the world of Mythology to build her mass production process.
“Good. Good. Very good.”
At Yuna’s words, Seongil pats her on the back with a satisfied expression. After that, he additionally summons Erisha and others, and shows her followers the recipe for the Taecheongsindan that he got this time, as well as a great rejoicing.
“Could this also be produced as a minor grade version?”
Just in case, Seong-il asks Yuna if she can dismantle the Great Hwandan to make an elixir like the summoning group.
“Umm… That… Well…”
She has experience in making stamina potions by disassembling healing potions from the alchemy world in the past, but Yuna has experience in causing unusual side effects to potions. Because of this, she puts on an expression that is slightly burdened by drug production.
“But give it a try. This time, we’ll be there to help.”
Erica and Vivian approach Yuna who is burdened and cheer her up. They were novices, but now they have turned into quite veteran alchemists while digesting the hard-core schedule of the holy day.
“Then shall we try…?”
“Do it! Try it!! If we work together, it will be possible.”
“…In that case.”
Yuna knows all too well how talented Eri Sha is as an alchemist, so she puts on a look of great courage at her words.
“Huh… Is this the ‘Elixir’ unique to the world of martial arts?”
“Yes. Can you make it?”
“No?”
“!?”
Seong-il looks shocked at Erica’s words that she can’t proudly produce after taking over the recipe. Seeing such a holy day, Erisha denounces her holy day with a puzzled expression.
“Hey! Humanly, I don’t even know what the ingredients listed here are. Also, I don’t know what effect they have, so how do you make them? At least give me the ingredients and tell me to make them!!”
“Aha… That’s right.”
On her holy day, she realizes she has made a mistake that is so amateurish that she slaps her on the forehead. He smiles slightly awkwardly and says that sooner or later he will supply materials for the first work.
‘I’ll have to ask Eunwol for this.’
Seong-il is the leader of a powerful Moorim organization that Eun-wol calls Kunryunseong-gyo. At least once, he is sure that he will be able to supply enough materials for the Taecheongsindan.
‘I guess I’ll have to ask them to supply seeds as well.’
In the Inner Plain, there is a Kukuru who has a natural talent for raising crops. For this reason, Seong-il thinks that after procuring the elixir seeds, he should find out how to procure the materials in large quantities with the help of the harvest goddess, Widgrasil, and Kukuru.
“I get it first. After disassembling the Great Hwandan, even if it’s a low class, can you do some research to make a useful elixir?”
“About research…But I can’t guarantee success!”
“I know.”
Seong-il also did not intend to burden them excessively, so she agrees with Erisha’s words. Entrusted with manufacturing the elixir, he takes out the Mugeuk Shrine from his bosom and moves to the place where Weed Grassil and Youngsaem are located.
“Long time no see. You are my master.”
When she visits Youngsaem, she sees the goddess of harvest for the first time in a long time. She greets her holy day looking more beautiful and graceful than before.
“Oh? You’ve become noticeably prettier than before?”
『Whoops… It’s all because Master Seongil bestowed his grace on me.』
Seong-il has a strong desire to violate the goddess of harvest, who has become more voluptuous than before. However, he has work to do right now, so he explains to her what to do first rather than offend her harvest goddess.
‘Well, today is not the only day.’
『Aha~! The point is that when you take that elixir, you need to absorb a huge amount of mana or energy from the surroundings, right?」
“Yes. It will be clear when you see the case of the elixir of great joy.”
For this reason, Seong-il asks the goddess of harvest if she can mobilize an enormous aura for her growth.
“As much as you like! Together with Weedgrassil, I will try to bring faith from a different dimension as much as possible and transform it into an aura as long as there is no fatal group!
“Thank you!”
Hearing her promise to provide the best training place for herself, Seong-il feels her heart warm. So, on her holy day, she does her best to take her elixir and starts taking care of her body and surroundings.
“Shall we start soon…?”
In the past few days she has been doing her best to create an optimal environment. He hears that the environment for taking the elixir is complete for the goddess of harvest today, and prepares to take her elixir.
“Whoa…”
For the past few days, Seong-il has perfectly maintained his body condition through ablutions. He picks up a martial arts shrine in front of him and puts it to his mouth with a tense expression.
“Gulp…!!”
Seong-il swallows the bright blue-black medicine with a nervous expression. Then, a refreshing sensation felt from the throat. It wasn’t that he hadn’t taken the elixir before, but an intense sensation that was different from the previous one swept through his body.
‘In the world, isn’t it more stimulating than the peaches given by the Onmyokan investigator?!’
While Seong-il is surprised, the elixir he took begins to stimulate the body by penetrating every nook and cranny of the tiny veins. Intense stimulation. Fortunately, Seong-il calmly calms down his body without panic, as he has had similar experiences a few times before.
Bubbly…
As time passes, the blood in Seongil’s body begins to boil like boiling water. Even Seong-il, who had already prepared himself for the bloody stimulation, gritted his teeth.
‘Fuck… I’ve already been through this kind of experience several times, so I thought it was worth enduring…’
Far from bearable, it felt like blood would pour out of my clenched teeth. However, as if feeling that this process is helpful to the owner, whenever Seong-il suffers, the nanomachines that thoroughly help him sit quietly in a corner and watch him suffer.
‘It’s okay to numb the sense of pain!!’
Seong-il resents the nanomachines for not taking any action against the pain as if he were being pricked by a needle in every pore of his body. However, despite Seongil’s earnest wishes, the nanomachines just sit there and stand by. It even quietly settles in the center of Seongil’s heart and takes a motion as if waiting for something.
Wooooo…!!
Shortly after the nanomachines start acting strangely, Seong-il feels a deafeningly intense wave radiating from him.
