I Am the Only Non-Returner - I Am the Only Non-Returner chapter 56
56 – A Peaceful Day
When I glanced at Eunchae, she lowered her face and hurried into her room.
‘··· Why are you doing that? Did I hit Kim Hyun-ah too much?’
Now that I think about it, I wonder if she really needed to kick her in the stomach…
At that time she was crying alone.
“Eat~ Hyuna, would you like some porridge?”
“··· No. It’s okay now.”
She thought she was just pretending that she was fine, but she actually seemed fine.
‘Recovery is fast.’
Her eyes met mine for a moment, and she lightly nodded her head and lifted her spoon.
[I am grateful to you for doing your best.]
[I usually think of you as —-.]
‘··· I see. The second tab has also been unlocked. It’s not some kind of dating simulation, it’s just…’
And then the sparkling thread from her chest soon disappeared.
‘Could it be possible for the person who was beaten to become closer to the distance? ‘He’s an unusual person.’
Anyway, I won, so I should take care of the grand battle from today, right?
“··· Are you okay? Since we almost give up on the Grand Battle if we apply, it’s not a big problem…”
[I feel uncomfortable because I feel like I have brought a burden on you.]
“It’s okay. Making money is always a good thing. I’m worried that I might forget it, hahahaha.”
“Well, there was a time when I was confused about the number of times.”
“You can’t do it while the stage is going on anyway, so you don’t have to worry about it for a year.”
“If you’re having a hard time, just tell me. I can leave.”
Hongseol said with a confident expression.
‘I guess you’ve recovered recently. I was concerned about you looking a bit down yesterday, but you don’t have to worry.’
Hongseol made quite a strong appeal while eating, as if he really wanted to compete in the Daejeon Battle.
“If you beat me, I’ll give you a chance to leave.”
“Hey… Is it okay to challenge at any time?”
“Of course.”
I’ve been thinking about what to do for a year, but there was nothing to do but train with each other.
After finishing my meal, I sat down on the sofa and looked at the unlocked advanced features.
“What else is there besides freezing?”
“Huh?! Freezing?”
Suddenly, Eun-cheol came running and sat down next to me.
“I just wanted to see if there was anything other than freezing.”
“Ah-hang!”
‘If you’re going to buy it, it would be better to buy it in advance so you can practice.’
Even if you consume magic power, it will gradually regenerate if you stay in the shelter, so you will be able to practice sufficiently.
“If you think you need freezing, ask Insun.”
“Oh! Is that okay?”
“Yes, that’s right, we divided up all the work, right?”
You can buy it right away, but there’s no need to keep skipping the established process.
She took her gaze away from Euncheol, who was running around looking for Yoo In-soon, shouting “Yes” And closed her eyes again.
In addition to freezing, three more characteristics were unlocked.
Amna’s devotion, the deception of the instigator, the aggravation…
Amna’s Devotion (Advanced)
– At the start of battle, your shield is converted to a shelter shield.
– All converted shields are exhausted, and sphere synchronization is possible after 3 minutes.
“Hey… This is a bit ambiguous…”
It’s very good to switch to a shield right from the start. It’s really nice to be able to use the shields of members who aren’t playing in the field. It’s a bit frustrating that you can’t synchronize the spheres for 3 minutes not only while the shield is on, but also after the shield runs out.
“Although we are increasing the battle time, it is usually around 20 minutes… Maybe the spheres cannot be synchronized for a long time, so the firepower may drop. Then, it will have some effect on the first clear.”
Hmm… Let’s think about this more with people.
Demagoguery’s Deception (Advanced)
– Spread bad rumors about a designated person throughout the shelter, putting them in a corner.
– Until a manager level or higher identifies him/her as the epicenter of the rumor, the mental power of the designated person is permanently reduced by 15% every 24 hours.
“Huh…What are these trashy traits?”
This is the perfect characteristic for destroying a shelter from the inside…
“Is there a value for mental power? It’s crazy that it’s permanently reduced. What happens when all mental power is lost?”
I’ll probably either become a madman or a ruined person.
You have to avoid sharing your characteristics in the first place, and it may be difficult to hide your identity for 24 hours… But when you succeed, the destructive power is too great.
‘I want to completely delete this from the list, but what’s next?’
Weighted weight (advanced)
– The amount of damage given to enemies with status ailments increases. (5% Per status abnormality)
‘That’s right! One thing has to come out good! It’s such a good trait, but what about this?’
Considering freezing, the ability to unlock this trait could be considered medium-low or higher.
High-end price is 125,000P
The points were over 10 million, so it didn’t feel that expensive.
‘Aggravated items are essential for dealers, and I’ll just let Euncheol and I buy the ice magician for now.’
I need to try it out myself and decide whether to buy it for others or not.
“Okay… Next is the list of unlocked stores… There’s only one piece of equipment?! Sheesh!”
Panteros Advanced Gaiters
– Award-grade gaiters officially recognized by Panteros, the holy land of fighters. It boasts excellent price-performance ratio.
– Shield +3000
– Damage when hit on the lower body -20%
– Dexterity +2
Price: 77,500P
“Oh! If it’s something like this, it’s acceptable even if it’s only one. It’s really good, isn’t it?”
It has an excellent shield, partial damage reduction, and agility +2, but the price is less than 80,000. It’s true that it’s good value for money.
‘I was thinking wrong. I was thinking of equipping my team members with equipment, but it seems like I would not have enough money.’
This is a quality equipment that you will want to buy right away.
‘It would be better to buy and distribute in advance to help people adapt.’
Today is the first day, so I’ll just rest and get together with people tomorrow to have a meeting about purchasing characteristics or equipment.
‘By the way… Why are you doing that from earlier?’
There was someone who kept glancing at me while I was sitting on the sofa.
‘Is it because of mana? It’s amazing that I can feel it even though I can’t see it…’
I pretended not to notice and slowly got up and headed towards the refrigerator.
“···!”
“Eunchae…”
From Noble mtl dot com
[I don’t have the courage to face you.]
As soon as I started talking to her, Eun-chae ran away back to her room.
‘Huh… I don’t know. ‘A woman’s heart.’
For some reason, when I was walking down the street at night before the world came to an end, I remembered the women running away in horror when they saw me.
Feeling a little bitter, I went into my room and stared blankly at my phone screen.
Ringling: Stage 21 Fighting! Another way is to scold the nearby shelter guys in advance! Be sure to contact me when it’s over! Of course I will do it first!
Reflect on Ringling’s last message.
“Since when did I start waiting so long for a Ring Ring text message…?”
Every time I looked at my phone, the dozens of messages that had piled up were now empty, so I felt a little empty.
She is a girl whose face I don’t even know who contacts me out of the blue, gives me advice on my concerns, and sometimes gives me generous support and information.
“I want to see you at least once…”
She did her training by extending and decreasing her middle finger, under the delusion that she would be able to meet her later when she was cleared.
“Couldn’t we sharpen her fingers that turned into Ten Kete?”
If her sharp finger blades could extend in an instant, she would be quite useful as an attacker.
She suddenly lifted the sword handle that had been roughly thrown under the bed.
With the opening of the exchange, the sword can no longer be used for grinding garlic, so I keep it in my room. No sword handle.
Rosherdin Schilli Sword
– A famous sword carefully crafted by the best craftsmen for the hero Rosherdin. It is well known that Rosherdin used it to slay the fallen angel Terma.
– When dealing with light attribute enemies, part of the hero Rosherdin’s power is borrowed.
45,000P light attribute limited sword.
“The enemies are all magical beasts, so the price must have been so high. Even though the performance is good, there is no time to use it.”
I held the handle still and thought about the time when I borrowed Rosherdin’s power.
The moment that made me move like lightning when my abilities were at their lowest.
“······ As expected, it’s similar… To the energy I felt during this event…”
I remembered the eyes full of sadness that met her when she struck down with her magic power.
“······f*ck······”
Forcing myself to shake off the thoughts that were floating in my head, I closed my eyes tightly and fell asleep, leaning on the magical energy slowly swirling through my body.
.
.
.
In the end, I woke up late in the afternoon and hurriedly headed to the kitchen.
“Oh, shelter director, would you like to have a meal right away?”
“Oh yes, please.”
“Yes, please wait a moment.”
As I was foolishly listening to the clinking sound of clinking dishes, Kahi came up to me and spoke to me.
“I thought he was going to sleep to recover his arm, so I just left him there and didn’t wake him up.”
“··· Yes, good job.”
[My heart aches as I look at your right arm.]
Bung Bung Bung-
“Oh my, it’s just the color, it’s all healed! Will the discoloration go away tomorrow? hahahaha”
“··· Yap!”
Party!
“aaah! Why are you hitting me?”
“It’s okay… I’m still in pain…”
‘Oh, I really thought it was okay, but it turned out that it wasn’t?’
Kahi then looked around my arm for a while and then went into Eunchae’s room.
He always doesn’t use his room…
‘Anyway, I really need to be careful when hitting. ‘It would be a priority to focus on training to quickly and accurately distribute magic power to the attack and defense room for a year.’
I also plan to try kicking.
“There’s no rule that says you have to use only your fists, I’ve also tried my shoulders.”
While I was muttering to myself, Ha-eun’s mother came and she reported that there had been a request to purchase Eun-cheol’s characteristics and a request to purchase Hong-seol’s bow.
‘The Hongseol bow is so bad, I managed to get by with a low-quality bow.’
I accepted the request, and Ha-eun’s mother left, saying she would inform the two of them of the results.
“I cooked ramen for lunch today. The kids said they wanted to try the ramen I cooked.”
“Okay, ramen, I’ll enjoy it.”
It was just my style to not beat the eggs completely, but to throw them in large chunks in a rough manner.
Slurp-
‘Keu… After all, the best ramen is when someone else cooks it for you.’
While I was eating intently, a message rang.
Resident Nam Nam-cheol has requested to purchase the trait Freeze Master (Advanced).
Resident Hong Seol requested to purchase the Aeros Car Wind Bow.
“Let’s buy it.”
– 125,000P
– 295,800P
Points held: 10,123,796
‘Wow, it’s okay to spend 400,000 points.’
I accepted the request, finished eating the ramen, and was about to stand up when I heard Euncheol’s distinctive cheering sound.
“Kyahoho!”
Euncheol, who went outside, was running using sprint speed and suddenly jumped and stretched out his hands in the air.
“Ice Storm!”
Oh my god… You can’t even say the skill name with your mouth! He even came up with a new name of his own!
Unlike the very creepy action, the magic effect was truly amazing.
Kwajajajajajak-!
I didn’t specify a specific target, but roughly at the point where I stretched out my hand, my torso was frozen in a circle just enough to freeze about 5 or 6 people, and they were left floating in the air.
“??? Why doesn’t it fall?”
It really continued to float in the air. Out of curiosity, I read the description of the characteristics again.
Freezes the designated target and the entire surrounding space…
“Is that what it means to be frozen in space? I have no idea what the world of magic is like…”
But Euncheol must have liked it so much that he spun around 360 degrees and admired the round block of ice floating in the air for a long time.
“It looks powerful. It would be good for fighting boss-level monsters.”
I called Euncheol for a moment and asked him about the amount of mana used for the Freeze Wizard trait.
“I guess it depends on the range! Right now, I only used 10%!”
Stamina: ??
mana: 114
Strength: 21
Agility: ??
[I want to share my excitement and excitement with you.]
[I usually think of you as ——.]
“It looks useful. Hmm…”
‘The ice magic love aggravated characteristics should be adjusted one by one through sets.’
After that, we had daily conversations with the people at the shelter, and also talked about training plans with Hong Seol and Kim Hyuna.
She went up to the rooftop and was surprised by the obviously larger size of the caterpillars and the darker color of Lulu. After dinner, she took a walk and had a quick drink with her uncle before returning to the room.
“I can’t get used to this…”
I was lying in bed after a very peaceful day, but for no reason I felt anxious and anxious.
“Is there any way to increase the specifications for one year?”
If she trains hard, won’t her numbers go up? While she was just thinking about what to do, there was a knock on the door.
Knock knock knock-
“Who is it at this hour?”
When I opened the door, Eunchae was standing in front of me with her head down.
“Hmm? Do you have something to say-“
While I was talking, Eunchae suddenly pushed into the room.
“···?”
