Academy Munchkin Grew Up To Become a Genius - Chapter 121
Episode 121 a Mountain-Like Appetizer (5)
Kang Seo-jun sat cross-legged on the floor of the “Dimension Gap Logistics Warehouse.”
What we need to do from now on is ‘evolve the [Growth] Mana slime mold into [Adult].’
‘Previously, when evolving from [Infancy] To [Growth], I used 《Mega Ent Cordyceps》.’
I can still vividly remember that horrible rubbery clay-like taste.
At the time, it was the most cost-effective material for growing mana slime mold, but the process was really arduous.
I had to eat as many as 200 of those tasteless things on the spot…
‘I’m glad I don’t have to do that this time.’
“Mega Ent Cordyceps” Is still the best cost-effective pick, but saving time is now more important than dimensional currency.
This time too, in order to grow mana slime using those tasteless mushrooms, you would have to easily eat 1,000 of them, but eating them in just 3 hours was physically impossible before willpower.
‘To save time, it would be better to use premium materials even if it costs more dimensional currency.’
There was one material that was perfect for the timing.

▶High elf body fluids
◆Grade

※Store Notice: A 50% discount event is currently in progress due to an explosion in volume!
─────────────────
Mana slime mold does not necessarily like only ‘corrupt organic matter’.
In order to grow the mana slime mold to a higher level, it had to be fed with special food suitable for its level.
They’re even offering a half-price discount, so there’s no better special than this at this time.
‘One… About ten bottles will be enough.’
The dosage is one bottle every three days, but this is based on the ‘Kingbanin’ standard.
‘Of course, even based on my current specifications, drinking ten bottles right away is excessive…’
Anyway, the only side effects are [Narrative] Level dependence and withdrawal symptoms.
At this level, I should be able to endure it with the willpower of ’33’.
‘Even if you develop symptoms of addiction, just like when you quit smoking, if you continue to endure them, the symptoms will disappear. With willpower, anything will work out.’
Seojun Kang purchased ten bottles of “High Elf’s Body Fluids” At the Dimension Store.
-Dangling!
-Degurrr…
10 pretty glass bottles that fall from the system window like drinks from a vending machine.
The size is not that big.
It is a narrow, drop-shaped glass bottle roughly about the length of an index finger.
There was no separate lid, and it was opened by breaking the end of the glass bottle.
-Sweet!
-Sniff.
Kang Seo-jun opened the head of the glass bottle and smelled it as if he were savoring perfume.
“Umm~”
A fragrant and refreshing natural scent. And there was a subtle, sweet fruity scent.
‘It smells really good. How does it taste?’
Kang Seo-jun took a single shot of the entire bottle without hesitation.
-Keep going!
The glass bottle was so small that even if I poured out the entire bottle, it was only about half a sip.
-Gulp!
“Seup… Wow… ? What is this… ?”
Kang Seo-jun tilted his head, looking at the empty glass bottle.
It’s a more familiar taste than I thought.
“It tastes very similar to 《Favorite Saint’s Holy Water》?”
A refreshing feeling that instantly quenches the thirst in your throat.
It’s quite sweet, and the taste makes you want to keep gulping it down.
The difference is that 《Favorite Saint’s Holy Water》 had a subtle milky scent, while 《High Elf’s Body Fluids》 had a stronger refreshing fruity scent.
‘How can I only eat one bottle of this every three days?’
-Shoot! Snap! Sigh!
-Keep going! Keep going! Keep going!
Kang Seo-jun opened the remaining nine bottles and poured them all into his mouth at once.
-Gulp! Gulp! Gulp!
“Keuuu…”
The indescribable refreshing feeling and sweet scent spread so much that it made my entire nerves tingle.
“This is like a drug.”
From noble mtl dot come
As if I had drunk alcohol, my eyes were spinning, my whole body was hot, and my energy was surging.
-Tiring!
-Tiring!

[The attribute 《Mana Slime Mold Lv. Rare+》 is growing through effective nutritional supply.]

At the same time, countless system messages began pouring in.
[You have taken a high dose of the item 《High Elf’s Body Fluid》!]
[The experience value of the attribute 《Spirit Sensitivity (Wind) Lv. Epic》 increases significantly!]
[The experience value of the trait 《Spirit Sensitivity (Earth) Lv. Rare》 increases significantly!]
[The trait 《Spirit Sensitivity (Earth) Lv. Rare》 grows to 《Spirit Sensitivity (Earth) Lv.Epic-》!]

[The trait 《Mana Slime Mold Lv. Rare+》 has been strengthened to 《Mana Slime Mold Lv. Narrative》.]
“Nooot… !”
Kang Seo-jun’s waist was curved like a bow.
The sweet and cool refreshing sensation of 《High Elf Body Fluid》 combined with the exhilaration felt as all the characteristics and stats grew, a pleasure beyond ecstasy swept through my body.
“ooo… !”
This is a drug. This is a drug.
[-Caution! The dosage is three bottles per week. Excessive consumption may cause serious dependence and withdrawal symptoms!]
I think I understand why there was a message in the item description warning people to be careful about dependence and withdrawal symptoms.
[Status abnormality occurred! 《Dependence – High Elf’s Embrace》.]
[Status abnormality occurred! 《Withdrawal symptoms – I feel dizzy~》.]
‘And… Evil! It’s not at the level of cigarette or alcohol addiction, but… ?’
Extreme thirst. And endless impulses pounded all over my body.
“uuu…”
In the game [Grand Hunter Academy], When a dependency like this occurred, the character was just locked up somewhere and held until it was released.
Whether the character suffered tremendous pain or suffered a mental breakdown, it only happened on screen.
“Waaa… !”
But now, as I faced the condition directly with my own body, the feeling was completely different.
‘What… ! This… ! It was an aphrodisiac… !?’
My whole body feels indescribably hot and tingling.
My heart was pounding as if it was going to explode, and every part of my body, from my fingertips to my toes, became extremely sensitive.
‘Fuuu… First of all, breathing… Let’s calm down…’
Kang Seo-Jun placed his hands cross-legged.
If my willpower had been just a little lower than ’33’, I would have already bought dozens more bottles of bodily fluids.
-Excited! Exciting! Exciting! Exciting!
“Seuuu… Huuu…”
About 30 minutes to sit and catch my breath.
As time passed, the excitement and urge did not improve at all, but since the sensation itself was getting used to it, I felt like I could survive in this state for the next few weeks.
‘It’s bearable because you get used to it. Now I just have to endure this for a week.’
The intensity of status abnormalities caused by 《High Elf Body Fluids》 is reduced by less than half if endured for just 3 days.
‘See… ‘. Now, how much time is left for the renovation of “The Young God Emperor’s Brilliant Cradle”… ?’
Kang Seo-jun looked at the golden machine that was still undergoing transformation.
[Equipment is being modified… Please wait…]
[Estimated time required: 1 hour, 12 minutes and 27 seconds…]
‘It’s 1 hour and 12 minutes… There’s so much left.’
‘Extracting the essence of vegetation’, ‘Evolving mana slime mold’… The planned work was completed faster than expected.
‘What should I do for the remaining hour?’
Ah!
There was just something worth doing.
◆Skill
[Muyoung Black Wind Attack (1 star) Lv. Narrative]
[Taegeukhyegeom (太極慧劍) (1 star) Lv. Narrative]
‘Let’s just practice martial arts.’
Even so, due to the side effects of 《High Elf’s Body Fluid》, my whole body was hot and itchy, so it was difficult to stay still.
‘Because my body is hot and my senses are sensitive. Rather, if I make good use of my current situation, I can receive corrections in my martial arts training.’
Kang Seo-jun jumped up from his seat and started using 《Muyeong Black Punggong》, which can be done with bare hands.
‘There is about an hour left before the renovation is completed. In this, both Muyeong Black Windgong and Taegeukhyegeom grow to 2 stars.’
Growing this level of advanced martial arts to a 2-star level in just one hour would be impossible for an ordinary martial artist, even if he dies or wakes up.
However, Kang Seo-jun, a famous character, always had a method.
[Activate the Eye of Providence!]
‘Show me the knowledge needed to raise Muyeong Black Punggong to 2 stars.’
[The Eye of Providence brings out the ideal movement of 《Muyoung Black Wind Attack (1 star) Lv. Epic》.]
-Shooo!
As soon as a handful of mana escaped, the ideal form of 《Muyeong Black Windgong》 unfolded before Kang Seo-jun’s eyes.
It is not simply a shape that can be seen with the eyes.
How to move your muscles, how to hold your posture, and at what speed you should move.
All of that is deeply embedded in my mind as a sixth sense that transcends providence.
-Whisk! Whisk!
-Boo! Boom!
-Whirlirriririk! Sigh!
[The blood energy is rising due to the uplift caused by the condition 《Dependency – High Elf’s Hug》. Martial arts training efficiency increases!]
Even the side effects of overdosing on elixirs are taken advantage of.
Although it wasn’t the expedient I had planned, the side effects caused by 《High Elf’s Body Fluids》 were also a great help in martial arts training.
-Sreung!
Seojun Kang purchased a [Normal] Grade iron sword from the dimension store and did not forget to practice the Taegeukhye sword.
-Whisk! Whisk!
-Wow! Wow!
[The Eye of Providence brings out the ideal movement of 《Muyoung Black Wind Attack (1 star) Lv. Epic》.]
[The Eye of Providence brings about the ideal sword path of 《Taegeukhyegeom (1 star) Lv. Epic》.]
As I stretched out my fist, used footwork, and swung my sword as instructed by the Eye of Providence…
[Skill 《Muyoung Black Wind Attack》 is bearing the fruit of growth! Martial arts achievements grow to 《2 stars》!]
[Skill 《Taijihui Sword》 is bearing the fruit of growth! Martial arts achievements grow to 《2 stars》!]
Kang Seo-jun succeeded in raising both martial arts skills to 2 stars in about an hour.
“Huh… Huh…”
As I lost all my sweat and stamina, the side effects caused by the “High Elf’s Body Fluids” Seemed to have improved significantly.
There was some magic consumption due to using the Eye of Providence, but this will be recovered if you rest until tomorrow morning.
“Now for the renovation…”
[Renovation complete! 《The Young God Emperor’s Brilliant Cradle》 has been completed!]
It was amazing timing.
“Finally…”
Now it is 2 am.
There are 4 hours left until the time to meet Grandpa Park Tae-ho.
‘Approximately 4 hours…’
It was enough time to grow all stats to over ’25’ with 《The Young God Emperor’s Brilliant Cradle》.
Even if all stats are ’25’, your pure ability is at [B+] Level. If you add all my characteristic corrections to this, the actual grade will be around [A] ~ [A+].’
Enormous growth occurring overnight.
Kang Seo-jun’s full-fledged growth began now.
