Chapter 245 – 57. Purity. (3)
Ruined.
It was also fucking ruined.
After that incident, Elizabeth shut herself up in her room, refusing to eat and drink, moaning in her anguish. … She just wished that she would die like this, but she couldn’t bear to die because she was a coward, so she was sick enough to die.
After diligently researching magic in her studio, her roommate Alloa, who returned to her room after a brief break, let out a long sigh as she saw her friend lying on her bed, drooping.
“Boy. It’s a mistake. Everyone knows it’s a mistake. No one looks at you.”
Although he struggled to explain that it was the first day and that the child was not between Danju and Elizabeth, there was no problem after Allen came forward and explained. Occasionally a furry bastard would come and light a fire with some kind of conspiracy theory, but other than that it was really quiet. … Really!
“… Are mistakes important? That… , I’ve shown them all! To Danju, my, my precious parts… I mean, I showed you everything… !”
The girl who has never held her man’s hand, the man she once thought of as her rival, has shown not only her precious parts, but also her ugly ugliness… !
“What can I do, really… Will I just die? Huh?”
Just thinking about it at that time makes me go crazy and jump up and down. How many times have I woke up kicking the futon every night!
She couldn’t even explain how much she hated herself for her past when she tried to learn how to make her potion.
“It’s okay, it’s okay. Even the lord understands everything.”
“That’s more embarrassing!”
Alloa slumped on her bed, shaking her hips up and down violently, watching her friend’s glowing tail, letting out a sigh.
“Are you going to stay like this forever? We must overcome! You want to open the door? Where did her confidence go, huh? I didn’t know my friend could be so timid and weak! She’s a self-confident kid! Did you collapse like this just because you barely saw it there? … He said he would become a great wizard! Then you should be prepared for something worse than this!”
The Prophet raised his voice. An incompetent wizard who only then slowly returns to his senses.
“… Really, Danju-nim, you say you don’t care?”
“No! What kind of person is Danju? He has been through all sorts of hardships. He has seen countless worse things than you! He must have forgotten it from his head already?”
“Really?”
“Really you bitch!”
Eventually, Alloa couldn’t stand it and slapped her friend on the back with her hand. Although she was a non-violence, Elizabeth urged her to arouse her violence. … For some reason, it seems that the ferocious nature of the mercenary business in the past is slowly emerging…
“Hurry up and wash up! Eat rice! Study! Don’t just eat rice. Damn you!”
Thus ended Elizabeth’s four-day silent struggle.

“I am innocent.”
Allen pleaded her innocence before the viola troupe.
“It’s because of the magic experiment. Everyone made a mistake. Rumors are not true.”
“… Is it real?”
“Why would I hide something like that from my sister? I’d rather say my child is my child. … Don’t do this like your sister. I’m going to die of a headache because of the rumors.”
Hmmm. After hearing the explanation from the money ghost, the iron mask calmed down.
She changed back to the face of Viola-Mercenary Corps Danju and started talking about the situation on the continent.
“The Marquis of Partalotti is collecting food and supplies. The price there is more than double the price here.”
“It will explode soon.”
“… I just hoped it would end with rumors.”
“Still, compared to other rumors, wasn’t it much more likely? Especially the Marquis is old. After seeing the death of the former emperor, who was his own generation, he must have made up his mind even more.”
Following the eastern and northern regions, the scare of the war has continued to the central region.
The problem is, this fire could spread all over the middle.
“Especially the 10th round is a problem. Currently, the top 10 is the most in the central region.”
Duke of Bellver in the East, Spiritist Pesiyal.
Raiga, the monster of the North.
Wild West Patty.
Except for these four, the remaining six were all concentrated in the center.
If they participate in the war, it is obvious that the scale will grow beyond words. That’s why the war in the middle is dangerous. … Isn’t it already predicted that the top 10 Arpen-Mercenary Corps will participate in the war as a Marquis?
“It is a pointless war. Sober owners won’t be so clumsy that they don’t know that.”
The viola recited rationality, but Allen recited profit.
“… However, if their interests start to become intertwined, I won’t just sit back and watch even the 10th round.”
However, Allen, who recited the benefits, also intended to watch for the time being. He has no obligation or reason to engage in this war right now.
The ideal would be for the Marquis to be content with eating one or two territories, but… , If that happens, I will rather be greedy. Because human beings are inherently that way.
“Anyway, stock up on supplies and don’t unpack them. Especially food. Still, the continent suffered a great famine a few years ago. That experience is already embedded in your bones. If something big happened on the continent, everyone would start by buying food like a seizure. At least to the point of being a country boy.”
“Don’t worry. Because we have already prepared thoroughly.”
“Then what… , Nothing more to say. Before I went, I was thinking of just looking at your face for a while…”
Now that the main discussion is over, Allen got up from his seat.
“… Do you have time this evening?”
“I have some business to deal with.”
“… Tooth.”
“Yes?”
“No. All right.”
The gloomy expression quickly returned to its original state.
Allen said goodbye and left.
Outside, it is afternoon when the sunset has faded.
The money ghost moved to the hideout while being bathed in the pouring sunset light.
There was no noise to his ears as he walked along the bustling avenue. I was thinking about the upcoming war in Chapter 4.
… No, I couldn’t help but worry about the situation in Chapter 5 that would happen after that. Truly, the hardships and adversities of the mountains!
… It’s money. After all, you need money. With a lot of money, you can overcome all these situations.
In order to overcome hardship and adversity, we need a lot of talent and materials, but that can be obtained with money. The conclusion that came after a long thought was also money in the end.
Even in [Guild Master], The importance of money was enormous. In the first place, one theme that penetrates the game is ‘business’ to make money.
As the chapter progressed, a series of incidents occurred on the continent, and an astronomical amount of money was consumed each time it was overcome. If you don’t make a lot of real money, you’ll end up bankrupt later in the scenario. Or end up being eaten by a bigger business.
Making money wasn’t just because of his desire. It’s a matter of survival!
Returning to the hideout, Allen approached the World Tree as usual and greeted it by patting its sturdy stem with his palm. As much as he is the world tree that became the guardian deity of Vermand-Dois, he should be given plenty of love.
And he headed to the studio attached next to the hideout. I could see crews cleaning up after work today, perhaps right before they finished their work.
“Everyone did a good job today.”
Alloa, who happened to meet them, informed Allen that Elizabeth had finally left her room and resumed her studies in her private library.
“Okay?”
“Please give me a word of encouragement.”
“Of course it should. I get it. Everyone, go to work now.”
The wizards moved away without noticing. In order to protect Elizabeth’s pride, which is left as much as her eyes.
Allen stopped Rudy Gore, the long-haired man on duty this week, at the entrance outside the studio, and she headed to her office alone.
He knocked on the door, and a familiar voice came from inside.
– Never mind me, go first!
“Hmmmm. … It’s me.”
Then the voice cut off.
“Can I come in?”
After a while, the door to the study room opened cautiously.
“… Come on in.”
An incompetent wizard with his face down and shyly telling me to come in. Allen strode into the study room and shut the door behind her.
In terms of Korea on Earth, it is about 6 or 7 pyeong, a studio the size of a studio. The walls of the study room were packed so tightly that there were no gaps, and the smell of old paper penetrated Allen’s nose.
The two met for the first time after that incident.
In the awkward silence, Elizabeth clasped her pants and fidgeted. … No matter how much it is a mistake, how can a person show it and not be ashamed.
“Is the work going well?”
“Ah, yes… What…”
“Don’t take things to heart then. Accidents sometimes happen when wizards experiment. There is nothing to be ashamed of.”
When Allen mentioned it then, Elizabeth felt the soles of her feet warm.
“It must have been very embarrassing, but you overcame it like this. I am proud of you. You have grown so much.”
Ah.
“That was a great mistake. All success comes from that great mistake. There is no success in this world without mistakes. You are well on your way to success. So feel free to be proud. … Tell me if you need anything Don’t worry about the amount. I will support you no matter what.”
… To be honest, it was a really big surprise.
To the point where I almost burst into tears.
“Forget all the old things. We just have to look at the present and the future and move on. … I will be your companion.”
Her nose was cold and her throat was hot.
“Don’t give up, Elizabeth. Don’t even doubt yourself. Believe in yourself till the end Even if the whole world turns against you… !”
Allen squeezed Elizabeth’s hand, and she shouted resolutely in an unsuspecting voice.
“You can become the Archmage.”
… It was then that she realized that the accident was minor.
I also realized that Allen was a great person who could easily have such an accident.
Ah.
Clearly, she was a person who did not fit for sobriety.
However, he was a very suitable person for sobriety.
She wanted to follow him to the end.
Even if you become a great wizard.
“… Do not worry. If I put my mind to it, I can become the Archmage! Right now, it’s just a bit of a no-brainer. Because I don’t take shortcuts!”
Elizabeth laughed proudly.
“You didn’t think I’d die over something like that, did you? I was just a bit tired, so I just took a few days off. I’m fine.”
“Of course I knew. Our elegant wizard, Miss, is not the kind of person who would just die over something like that.”
“Sure!”
Allen smiled and patted her on the shoulder.
“Yes, I will support you until the end. … Tell me if you need anything I will help as much as I can.”
Things that you need.
… Of course there was.
Sobriety interest,
Sober praise,
Courtesy of Sobriety!
She needed his attention, wanted his praise, wanted his favors.
… But how can I be ashamed to say such a thing!
Of course, Allen, who could read Elizabeth’s mind, smiled meaningfully.
As expected, you are a natural interest.
The money ghost made a decision to show interest and favor to the seed of interest in the future.
If you only open the door of mana, you can’t do anything worse than that!
