───────────────────
Now, if you extract the “Fire attribute magic power” Contained in this necklace, eat it, and rob Sakura’s equipment, farming on Ulleungdo is over.
‘Let’s extract the purified water first.’
If stability was a priority, it would have been better to purify rather than extract, but speed was more important to Kang Seo-jun now.
‘It is much easier and faster to purify the essence taken out of the necklace than to purify the essence contained in the necklace.’
Isn’t it difficult to wash the contents when the packaging is covered?
‘You just have to endure the pain.’
If there was anything I had to endure for speed, it was just enduring the pollution of demon energy and the burning pain of the flames.
‘That means nothing to me.’
Demonic energy pollution can be purified with light attribute magic, and burning pain can be endured with willpower.
‘Let’s get started right away.’
Kang Seo-jun uncovered each and every spell engraved on the necklace with “Eye of Providence.”
Soon, among the countless spells, Kang Seo-jun discovered a spell that contained the essence of flame.
‘I just need to solve this.’
-Click!
Disarming the spell wasn’t difficult at all.
All I had to do was pour in a little dark attribute magic according to the formula given in the Eye of Providence.
‘Because I have dark magic, things become much easier.’
Most magic spells could be easily nullified using dark magic.
-Good luck!
As soon as the magic that was trapping the essence was removed, an extremely bright red blood-red flame began to float above the large red jewel of the necklace.
This was the essence of the polluted flame.
‘It’s important now to start from here.’
Kang Seo-Jun quickly grabbed the essence of flame before it got to an unexpected place.
“K, keuuh!!!”
Of course it was really hot and painful.
I could vividly feel the demonic energy corrupting my nerves and the flames burning my skin.
But the pain that was expected from the beginning.
Seojun Kang gritted his teeth and breathed the magic of light into his palm, which was engulfed in tremendous pain.
-Gulp! Gulp! Gulp!
The lack of magical power was compensated for with the Mana Potion from the Dimensional Store.
I drank so much mana potion that my mouth is now filled with the smell of the potion.
-Good luck! Howling!
“K, ugh!!!”
The purification of demonic energy ended faster than expected, but the heat of the flame was still great.
‘Now I have to put this inside my body.’
If I swallowed it with my mouth, all my internal organs would be cooked, so of course I couldn’t do it, so I had to store this pure flame energy in my body through mana practice.
‘Wow, come on!’
Kang Seo-jun sat cross-legged, holding hot water in his hand.
A burning pain that feels as if you are holding a piece of red-hot charcoal in your hand.
It was so hot that an ordinary cadet would have screamed at the mere touch of his fingertips his, let alone holding it in his hand his his, but Kang Seo-jun showed superhuman patience and concentration, held it tightly, and began to perform man exercises.
‘Big, big!!!’
The pain that had been burning his palm began to spread through his wrist, through his shoulder, and throughout his body.
The energy of pure flame began to race through the entire body through the mana circuit.
‘Big, big!!’
Wouldn’t this be what it would feel like if a heated iron were inserted into a nerve, a bone, or the stomach?
‘S-sssss!!! I’ll take some painkillers from the downtown area!!!!’
While trying to save a few dimensional currency, the top 5 pains in life were updated.
-Howling!
But there is no eternal pain.
As I held on with superhuman mental strength and continued to practice mana without stopping, the hot pain gradually began to subside.
“Whoo, whoo, whoo… !”
Kang Seo-jun intermittently took deep breaths.
As parts of his body he were being cooked along with the mana circuit, black smoke with a burnt smell came out of his mouth.
“S-shit… I almost fell behind.”
Kang Seo-jun soothed the burned circuits and organs with light attribute magic.
I felt that the fiery essence that had been running wild inside his body was slowly being tamed.
And soon, the system messages that Seojun Kang had been waiting for poured out in front of his eyes
[The item “Essence of Flame” Has been successfully absorbed!]
[You have acquired the attribute 《Fire Attribute Magic Lv. Rare》!]
.
.
[Fire magic becomes more powerful!]
[Fire resistance increases!]
[The bond with fire attribute constellations becomes stronger.]
.
.
[The trait 《Fire Attribute Magic Lv. Rare》 resonates with the trait 《Ultra Polar Body Lv. Rare+》. The trait 《Extreme Positive Body Lv. Rare+》 is promoted to 《Extreme Positive Body Lv. Epic-》!]
“uuu…”
I can finally live.
As soon as I gained fire resistance, the heat that seemed to heat up my whole body subsided.
‘I feel like I’m going to faint.’
Although he wanted to lie down for just 10 minutes and catch his breath, Kang Seo-jun stood up with superhuman willpower.
I’ve said it many times, but the most important thing in stealth is speed.
Well, now it was like searching through a field of corpses, so you could call it stealth, but there was no harm in rushing anyway.
‘Ugh… Now all you have to do is spray the downtown cleanliness spray and the upstairs farming will be over.’
Kang Seo-jun carefully sprayed “Business Cleaning Spray” All over the demons’hideout to make sure to clean his traces and the remains of the corpses of the demons.
‘Now all I have to do is rob Sakura’s equipment and that’s it. It was rewarding farming.’
Kang Seo-jun left the clean hideout and came back down to the basement.
As expected, it was a dark concrete passageway without a single light.
Sakura was still lying in the same position, motionless.
Before approaching her, Kang Seo-jun activated the Eye of Providence once again.
▶Kuyamoto Sakura
[Current status: general anesthesia, mental contamination, unconsciousness, diaphragm damage, rib fractures…]
[Time remaining to regain consciousness: 26 hours 16 minutes…]
I was wondering what if he was just about to wake up or was pretending to have passed out, but fortunately he was completely unconscious.
‘There is still plenty of time to regain consciousness.’
Of course, this is the standard when nothing is touched.
If she made a loud noise or shook her body, that time could have shortened much faster.
‘Be as careful as possible… Make the sound as quiet as possible…’
Kang Seo-jun quietly approached her and knelt down on one knee.
‘Uh, um…’
-Excited! Exciting! Exciting!
My heart races at the thought of having to take off Sakura’s equipment from now on.
‘I’m so fucking nervous…’
However, I wasn’t nervous because Sakura was an S-class beautiful girl in the province.
‘If you make a mistake, your entire body could be cut into atoms.’
I was nervous because it was a sleeping [S-] Level monster.
-Excited! Exciting! Exciting!
Kang Seo-jun slowly turned her over, as if disarming her bomb her.
-Lots!
▶Kuyamoto Sakura
[Time remaining to regain consciousness: 26 hours 15 minutes → 25 hours 27 minutes]
‘Fuck, fuck!?’
I only turned my body over once, but the time remaining to regain consciousness was shortened to nearly an hour.
This may be due to excessively high recovery and sensitive senses.
‘I’m going crazy!’
It felt like I was secretly plucking the nose hairs of a sleeping lion.
‘But I have no choice but to do it!’
Kang Seo-jun glared at her, flashing her “Eyes of Providence.”
Soon, the details of the equipment she was wearing and how to dismantle it were printed out in detail before her eyes.
‘Good. Let’s take it slow.’
Sakura was wearing a cloth robe that I couldn’t tell if it was a kimono or a kendo uniform.
Inside, I could see a glimpse of suit-like light armor that Black Widow would wear during an infiltration mission.
If it weren’t for the eyes of providence, she wouldn’t have known where and how to take it off.
-Slap! Click! Jiik! Sreuk!
Seojun Kang began to dismantle her equipment one by one, following the guidance of “Eye of Providence”.
Unbutton her, cut off her her straps her her her, unzip her, carefully peel off her her skin her…
After repeating this for a while, the work that seemed like a complicated thread gradually came to an end.
‘… Anyway, definitely…’
As an elite hunting dog that reached the [S-] Level, even though each piece of equipment was not good, there were quite a lot of items at the [Rare+] Level and [Epic] Level or higher.
‘And. This…’
Among her accessories, there was even a [Legendary] Grade necklace that strengthened her self-defense skills.
‘The item settings are pretty good. Sakura’s only weakness is her defense. Accessories like these can make up for Sakura’s weaknesses.
Kang Seo-jun sold all items below the [Rare+] Level and kept items above the [Epic] Level separately.
‘The expensive ones should be replaced in the “Galactic Empire Emperor’s Life Support System.”
If I went into life support as soon as I returned to the dormitory, I thought I would be able to remove many of the debuffs by tomorrow morning.
“Huh, huh… !”
“Huh, huh… !”
Oops.
Everything went so smoothly that I let my guard down for a moment.
‘I put too much pressure on my hands!’
While taking off the equipment, my chest was slightly pressed.
‘Oh, no, but… !’
I didn’t press hard, I just lightly touched the back of my hand…
▶Kuyamoto Sakura
[Time remaining to regain consciousness: 25 hours 27 minutes → 21 hours 07 minutes]
‘Fuck, fuck… ‘ !’
The time remaining to regain consciousness was reduced by more than 4 hours.
‘Aren’t you too sensitive about this!!!’
Cold sweat poured down like rain on Kang Seo-jun’s forehead and back.
‘You can’t let down your guard. From here on, you have to be careful not to let your breath touch you… ! If you make a mistake, you’ll be wiped out in an instant!’
As Sakura’s skin is revealed, her sensitive senses are also amplified.
The more I took off her equipment, the more difficult it was to loot.
In order not to die, she had to focus at a microscopic level now that her bare skin was almost exposed.
Now that she has used up her counterattack, it will really be over once she wakes up.
If you take the 《Potion of Power Concentration》, you might be able to fight her for 5 minutes, but if it were Sakura, Kang Seo-jun would probably cut her head off her before she could drink the potion.
‘It’s almost the end now… You can’t relax until the end… !’
-Sureuk! Swoosh!
-Jiik! Snap!
“Huh… Ugh…”
[Time remaining to regain consciousness: 21 hours 07 minutes → 20 hours 46 minutes]
.
.
[Time remaining to regain consciousness: 20 hours 46 minutes → 19 hours 59 minutes]
.
.
[Time remaining to regain consciousness: 19 hours 59 minutes → 19 hours 17 minutes]
.
.
.
However, as she took off her equipment, she inevitably had to touch her bare skin.
-Excited! Exciting! Exciting!
Stun time is reduced without exception with each passing touch.
As time passed, Kang Seo-jun’s heart began to beat more and more vigorously.
‘To say this is sensitive is an understatement… ! There are degrees of sensitivity… !’
The skin itself must have been quite sensitive, so just by brushing it a few times, a light blush appeared on the area where it was rubbed and on her cheeks.
Still, I worked diligently and carefully, and the work was finished before I knew it.
‘Whoa… ‘ .’
Kang Seo-Jun sighed, looking at his ceiling her, so as not to catch his breath her, her her.
‘Wow. I thought I was searching because I was scared.’
As I was rooting the equipment, I even sold my underwear to a dimension store.
It was underwear made of [Rare+] Grade material, so how could they not sell it?
However, when she touched her underwear, her recovery time was accelerated by as much as 8 hours and she freaked out.
‘There is no time to rest.’
▶Kuyamoto Sakura
[Time left to regain consciousness: 8 hours 07 minutes…]
She had only been stripped of her equipment for 30 minutes, and the time remaining until she regained consciousness was ridiculously short.
‘With truly crazy mental strength, resilience, and keen senses…’
From noble mtl dot come
Even though Kuyamoto Sakura’s stats are biased towards this, isn’t this still too extreme?
‘Now that I’m naked, if I make even the slightest mistake, I can wake up right away. We have to get out of here quickly.’
But before that…
▶Kuyamoto Sakura
[Current status: general anesthesia, mental contamination, unconsciousness, diaphragm damage, rib fractures…]
‘… It’s a minor injury, but I’ll still treat it.’
It’s a good thing, but it’s heartbreaking to see it left on the street like this.
[The constellation 《The Tree that Cares for the Flower World》 sponsors you with dimensional currency.]
[The constellation “Queen of the Deep” Sponsors you with dimensional currency.]
[The constellation “Golden Fox of the Sun and Moon Palace” Sponsors you with dimensional currency.]
.
.
.
The constellations also sent dimensional currency as if they liked Kang Seo-jun’s choice.
‘Phew…’
The action was quickly completed in about 5 minutes.
There was a possibility that he would wake up right away if his injuries were healed at once, so I placed a recovery magic totem next to him and covered him with a blanket just in case.
‘This should be enough. Let’s escape now.’
Kang Seo-jun quickly escaped from the underground warehouse.
I didn’t forget to pick up the ‘portal scroll’ for the secret passage on the way.
Now it was time for him to return to the dormitory, shop for combat skills, and cure debuffs with the 《Galactic Emperor’s Life Support System》.
