I Became an Academy Regular - I Became an Academy Regular 205
◈ Relic (3)
When he returned to the portal, Astiel took out a direct ticket. When I brought it to the portal, the color changed to pure white. The coordinates had changed to a temple on the 44th floor.
Astiel turned to me and asked.
“Well, is there anything missing? Maybe I forgot and didn’t say anything.”
Astiel moved into the portal and disappeared. He followed him and walked into the portal.
Whoa! In an instant, the view and the place change. When I came out of the portal, I was in the middle of the forest, not in the city like I just did.
[Special. 95 – The effect of ‘Master of the Tower’ is activated.]
[‘Luck’ and ‘Favorite’ slightly increased, physical ability increased when dealing with monsters / Duplicate activation of related perks is not allowed]
This is the 44th floor.
Upon reaching the 26th floor or higher, the perks of the tower were naturally updated to the higher version. The problem was that it took a while to get to the 44th floor, but I’m glad it was resolved this way.
“How many times have you been here?”
Astiel nodded his head. While carrying out his quest, I personally came to see him two or three times.
“I came here on a mission.”
You can see the stairs leading to the 45th floor nearby. On some floors, there is a place to go up to the next floor in this way.
After walking for a while and out of the thick forest, a huge barrier appeared. That barrier is a facility to protect the temple.
Naturally, to reach the temple, you had to go through that wall. If the portal is installed near the temple, it is because it is vulnerable to external attacks.
Others have portals close to the center for various reasons, but special areas such as imperial courts and temples are of this type.
“How did you deal with Arihan Hector? That person is a Necromancer.”
Astiel walked next to him and talked to him.
“I borrowed the power of the divine power. I made bullets with divine power by applying the magic bullets I used before.”
“Huh. The saint will be pleased. How many people do you know?”
“Not much. Only those who know the situation know this. Has the president been on the front lines all this time?”
“yes. I rather miss the days of aspiring heroes. At that time, there was only the risk of overwork, no other risk.”
“haha.”
Astiel looked around and took a cigarette naturally. Candidates for a saint are gilbang. What do you do when other people see you?
Astiel sensed my gaze and clenched his chin as if he had been stabbed.
“Why, what? anew.”
“…I didn’t say anything. After all, you are an adult now.”
I nervously turn on the lighter, not knowing what to say. However, the flame did not light because its lifespan had expired.
“Why is this again?”
“Hold on a second.”
I flicked my fiery fingers and ignited the cigarette. Astiel immediately exhaled smoke.
“Whoa…. thanks How about the other guys?”
“I’m realizing how hard it was for the president.”
“Fhh. It’s because you’re not working.”
Astiel, who said that, felt tired.
Astiel, who originally graduated from the academy, is freed from work, so his dark circles disappear, and he sleeps well and grows in many ways. However, instead of resting due to the change in his worldview, he seems to suffer more than when he was a hero aspiring.
“How about the wires?”
“wire? don’t talk Everyone gets nervous and plays separately.”
Astiel’s teeth seemed to tremble, the speed of the cigarette burning faster.
“The words are one team to prevent erosion, and they each acted against each other. Sorcerers and sects do this, but how much it is to an outsider, a temple.”
Maybe that’s why the saint pulled the temple out of the front line.
Up until now, they must have endured harsh treatment to prevent erosion, but the top powers may have misunderstood their position in the process. Even taking that into account, arrogance was the problem in the end.
“It must be because of the beautiful Hector. His disciples may be mixed in.”
“… now that I think about it, I get goosebumps. You might be among the people I treated.”
“It may be. It came down with good timing. If we find out that Arihan Hector is dead, we might run rampant.”
“What else do you mean?”
“Because Arihan Hector ordered his disciples to stop the erosion.”
This may be confusing, so it’s a fact I didn’t even tell the princess.
“It is not true that I heard from Arihan Hector. In the end, there is no one to control those children, so the front line is on the verge of collapsing. There is no one to trust.”
“Ugh. Did you ever think about building a force with all these things in mind?”
“It’s not that far, but the situation is the situation, so even the top powers will not be in a position to help.”
In the end, the top powers cannot reject this alliance. Unless you’re desperate to die together, you’ll need help.
“If I go further than that, can I receive the holy relics right away?”
“Well? You will have to go through the process.”
but. In the game, you had to go through a procedure to obtain a quest item, the Holy Relic. It was a problem because the procedure was a kind of draw.
‘A good thing must come out.’
I’m just hoping for good luck this time around.
Upon reaching the barrier, the Paladins were seen strictly guarding the entrance. They found Astiel and came forward to greet him.
“Astiel. I heard you left, but what did you come back for?”
“I have something I need to hear from you.”
“Is the person next to you a guest?”
“A guest? ···yes that’s right.”
Astiel looked back at me and grinned. groan I did come though. I don’t have a holy sword, so I can’t recognize it either.
“It’s okay if Astiel-sama brought you! Come inside.”
The paladin kindly spoke and cleared the way. coogong. Soon the tightly closed door opened.
“Should I show my face more often?”
As we entered the wall, a huge temple caught our attention.
Not only the priests in the vicinity, but also the civilians living here wandered around, but there were relatively few people compared to the large branch. When I think back on the past, there was a big difference from that time.
“Certainly no one is there.”
“They haven’t come back yet.”
Aside from the situation of erosion, this place was peaceful and quiet as if it had nothing to do with it. We went straight into the temple without leaking any other way. In front of it was a huge statue of the Goddess of Gran.
“Wait a minute. Serving the saint…”
“Are you a welcome guest?”
Then a voice rang out from the wide space. Just as she was in the chapel, Saint Albain walked out this way.
“what. I was going to meet you, but were you there?”
“Long time no see. Lady.”
The saint approached us and nodded at our words. And she looked at me.
“I was worried about losing contact, but I’m glad. Have you met Astiel?”
“Yes. We were lucky enough to meet you on the 25th floor.”
“What happened?”
In response to the saint’s question, I explained how I came to this place. The saint’s eyes widened when she learned that she had killed Arihan Hector, but she gave her a worried look when she realized that the potential danger on her front lines had increased.
‘···The tower is even better than that.’
I could hear the story about the tower from Albain.
The most effective in preventing erosion is divine power, not magic. It is said that they are holding on to the front line because there is a temple, but they forgot that point and took the position that they had the upper hand.
‘Send more support or something. I can’t help but not want to work together.’
How could this not be wrong? This shouldn’t be inconsistent. However, Albain seemed to regret his decision.
“Ugh. Was it the right decision for the temple to retreat? I might have to take into account that this is prone to…”
“no. It’s a good decision. You might lose your precious life for nothing. I’m going to go up there soon anyway.”
“Instead, we need to clear the ground before that so we can go up quickly.”
The protection of the tower, which disappeared this time, does not come back. Of course, there will be no obstacles in climbing until the ground is stable before climbing the tower.
Before pushing away the erosion, the ultimate goal is to eventually meet the ‘103rd Top Master’, the root of the problem.
“After all, the problem is that he is an immortal magician.”
“Yes. So we need a holy relic with the power of sealing.”
“If it’s a request from Jihan, who is not someone else, of course we should help. I will guide you.”
The saint readily agreed. She paused as she tried to turn and she noticed something strange.
“…By the way, where is the holy sword?”
ugh Somehow I didn’t ask. Astiel coughed a bit, but it only made him more suspicious. I spit out the excuses that came to mind when I came.
“…the battle with Arihan Hector made him take a break.”
“Hmm, that’s right. However, the holy sword is a symbol of the temple and Jihan, so it would be better to carry it with you at all times.”
Fortunately, the saint moved without asking any further questions.
“Then I will go.”
After turning around and talking to Astiel, he followed Albain.
The saint led me to the back of the temple. The warehouse where the relics were kept is strictly managed, so it was rare to come here.
I stopped in front of the door engraved with an old-fashioned pattern. The saint stood in front of the warehouse and looked at me.
“The holy sword and similar relics are also kept here. Some are still in use on the front lines. It will be returned soon.”
“···haha.”
Did you mean to laugh?
squeaky. When the saint opened the door with her own hands, a refreshing scent flowed out of her.
“What you want will be inside. I’m waiting outside.”
With that said, I went into the warehouse. The door closes slowly from behind. Although there was no other fire inside, the holy relics were emitting a soft light, so it was not dark.
Normally warehouses should have smelled old, but this place didn’t smell anything like that. Rather, the air was cleaner than outside. Since they are holy relics with divine power, they must also purify pollution.
It’s more like a quiet monastery than a warehouse. I walked on a clean and tidy path. Valuable items were naturally displayed everywhere.
The quest item I want to obtain does not have an official name unlike other relics. Because anything has the effect of ‘sealing’, the name alone may have an adverse effect.
Jerking-. I heard the sound of water nearby and walked towards it.
There was a pure white fountain. It looked ordinary, but all that flowing water was holy water.
‘It was here.’
This was another holy relic that kept the relics for ‘sealing’.
Now I had to put my hand in it.
That was the procedure for obtaining the item, ‘drawing’. Because the shape changes according to the upbringing process, the appearance of the holy object has always changed.
There were times when another holy sword appeared, and when riding the last route, something like a tentacle that did not match the divine power was wrapped around his arm. The result reflecting the growth so far is a form that comes out randomly within this.
After taking a deep breath, I rolled up my sleeves and put my arms into the fountain. The water was colder than expected.
‘…a little deep.’
Originally, something like this should have been caught, but even if I pushed my elbow in, I couldn’t catch it. Hopefully there was nothing.
So it’s small, how small is it? Finally, it was only when she dipped her shoulders that she felt the touch of the bottom of the fountain. However, the shape he felt at his fingertips was somehow familiar.
I grabbed it and pulled my arm out of the fountain. Unsurprisingly, her eyes trembled when she opened her palm to check the item.
“···what’s this.”
I took it and went out of the warehouse. The saint who was waiting looked at me and asked.
“You’re fast, Jihan. Did you get what you want?”
“yes. But this is…”
“What kind of thing is it?”
I showed Albain what he had in his hand. The result of the drawing and the white shiny little thing was a ‘bullet’.
[Bullets for sealing]
Condition: When ‘Seo-Han’ wants to use
[A relic created for sealing. It is unique to the bibliography.]
*When the power of a bullet resides, those whose ‘heart’ is pierced are bound to the place.
– There is no lethal power except for sealing.
– Only qualified persons can use it.
-disposable
He couldn’t hide his trembling at the holy relics he had acquired.
What Noah Park obtained from the fountain in the game was a new weapon that could be used ‘semi-permanently’. On the other hand, the ‘bullet’ I got is disposable, which disappears when used.
ha. I thought I could get a new relic, but something like this is coming. It would have been better if it had been in the form of dwelling in the body, but it may have come out like this because of my lack of growth.
The saint looked happy because she did not know my thoughts.
“Good for you! Wasn’t the weapon you usually use the most as a gun?”
In addition, there was one more issue to consider.
The custom gun of Black Hawk that I used could only use ‘Mattan’. In other words, the only thing that can be loaded is mana.
In the end, it means that loading this holy relic, ‘bullet’, is impossible. Besides, in the current situation, it would be difficult to find a gun with enough power to pierce the body of a demon…
‘There is only Arwell.’
While Park Noah’s consciousness was still alive, it was said that he had to borrow his partner once again.
