My Alter Ego Is Becoming a Giant - My Alter Ego Is Becoming a Giant chapter 58

unexpected luck (2)

After breaking up with the elves, Harley was walking through the town of Tarak, as always, under the eyes of everyone.

‘The spirit is very convenient, isn’t it?’

It was possible not only to assist the movement with the wind spirit, but also to wash the body with the water spirit.

He looked around at his cleansed body.

The service received by the elves just before moving to Tarak.

After experiencing it firsthand, my greed for him grew even stronger.

‘But a lot of the equipment was damaged. I’ll have to get a new one soon.’

In the meantime, damaged equipment caught my eye.

Hard black steel axes had teeth, as well as incontinence.

The necklace made by weaving the teeth of wild beasts was lost in battle, and the black leopard helmet was completely ragged.

…In fact, that was all.

There wasn’t much equipment he had in the first place.

‘It’s all for decoration. Well, axe, it’s pretty useful now.’

For Harley, who could not wear equipment tailored to her body due to the nature of “body transformation”, the current concept of a savage warrior was perfect.

Because his real weapon was his monstrous body itself.

So majestic and majestic walking the streets barefoot, he headed for an ordinary house on the side of the city.

rattle—

Harley opened the door vigorously as if it was her own house and entered.

However, the owner of the house inside was not surprised and greeted him naturally.

It was Hubert, the avatar sent to Tarak after Harley.

“Wah hahaha—! Because there are “emotions”, you can check things right away, which is convenient!”

A green light flashed in his left eye, and the objects he was holding flew through the air and naturally entered Hubert’s hands.

“Jewel Eye: Yeom Dong”, which can be used by transplanting a new eye.

This was my first time using it properly.

Perhaps because of being compatible with Harley, the telekinesis that was able to be activated with his bioenergy was more useful than I thought.

Now, it was as if he had a ranged attack too…

‘You can even float your body. Besides, if you don’t look closely, it just looks like an odd-eye.’

As time passed, the jewels that had been assimilated into “physical transformation” looked like ordinary green eyes at first glance.

Of course, there is still a subtle sense of heterogeneity, but that’s not a big deal.

‘It’s a world where all races and races live in harmony. Besides, no one will look directly into the eyes of this grumpy hunk.’

While Harley did such a telekinesis test, Hubert went straight into the emotions of things.

＜High Elf Spirit Bracelet＞

– A bracelet made by an outstanding master by weaving a number of spirit stones with the branches of the world tree. It assists the wearer’s natural power and summoning spirits, while greatly boosting attribute affinity and resistance. Due to the influence of the previous user, the spirit stone has stronger wind, lightning, and earth properties.

＜Branch of the Withered World Tree＞

– It was once a part of the World Tree, but now it has lost its original function due to excessive use of energy. It looks like it could be used with a variety of materials.

“Hmmm… that’s vague.”

I was thinking of the world tree eggplant as a souvenir, so secondly, there was no good place to use the bracelet.

Of course, Lapori gave away the most precious thing he had, but…

‘Performance itself seems to be good. There is no avatar that can be used.’

It would be the best treasure for the Elementalist, but unfortunately he didn’t have a Elementalist.

Apart from greed, there were not many expectations that he could become a spirit warrior.

Among the returnees from Earth, the spirits were exceptionally few.

The affinity with the spirits, the beings of Mother Nature, were inevitably influenced by the environment in which they lived.

It was better not to expect too much unless he had lived as a friend with nature in a place where civilization was not developed, or even awakened the unique skills of that system.

‘And my avatar is created under the same conditions as the main body.’

He has lived in the city all his life and has lived with instant food in his mouth, so how much affinity with nature would he have?

‘Amplification’ was also effective when it had a certain amount.

‘…But you don’t know?’

Maybe he also has a hidden spirit affinity?

Hubert slid the bracelet onto his wrist.

As he felt it automatically adjust the size without discomfort, he slowly closed his eyes.

“·················ogue.”

Concentrating on the bracelet on the wrist, I tried to feel the natural force.

Images of nature, including mountains and the sea, that come to mind when you are at peace.

“··········!”

After such a long time, Hubert opened his closed eyes.

“Damn it, I can’t feel anything.”

… Still, it’s my first attempt, so if I keep wearing it, maybe something will change.

There was no one else to use it anyway, so Hubert decided to keep wearing it.

I didn’t know when Harley would be ruined by her fighting style if she had one.

However, it is impossible to give it to Acrich Hans or the vampire Heinz.

‘After all, my basic level is not at a level where I can easily scream and die. At least, even if Hubert is ambushed, it’s enough to be able to cancel the summons right before he dies.’

Still, in case you don’t know, I’ll have to cover my wrist with the bracelet well.

When you start a business, you may be targeted in many ways.

‘Come to think of it, that problem seems to have been resolved to some extent this time.’

Soon, it would be known through the Mercenary Guild that Harley had formed a bond with the Shinjuku Church, so it was a huge boon for Hubert, who was trying to start a business as a business partner with him.

As it is not modern, there are many things to consider in order to start a business.

In order to properly grow, not only capital, but also armed forces and personal connections are essential.

That is why Harley started a business in Tarak, the area where Harley was active, and borrowed the name to block outside interference.

‘But does that person even have a relationship with the church? This is game over.’

Once it is officially announced under the name of the denomination, no matter how big or small the relationship is, it will become a burdensome figure that cannot be touched by others.

He would be more concerned about touching the business he was involved in.

While Harley was doing well as a business partner, Hubert was doing market research and deciding what to sell.

‘I think it would be better to start with pepper.’

The largest producer of pepper in Auterica is the southeastern part of the continent.

Since Tarak is in the northwest region, the price difference according to transportation is the largest.

‘Although the monster industry is the center, there is a lot of floating population including merchants, so there is no problem as long as the product is good. There are also many high-ranking Matop Branches who will be the main consumers.’

All plans are in place.

“Ouch! I’m tired!”

While Harley crawled into the bed in the house, Hubert took the magic tools and the branches of the world tree he had purchased this time.

Now it was time to go back to Earth.

***

“Hmm… not bad for a souvenir.”

I put the branches of the world tree in the pots of dried and dead plants that were scattered around the house.

As soon as I poured a cup of water into it, I could feel something refreshing already.

‘Well, this is done. Trade goods should be prepared for the clan through Heinz. The sale of magic tools should also go through it.’

You’ve devoured a power that you can use at best, when will you use it?

‘Raising Heterosis is going smoothly, and Clan Brokoslak will have to wait a little longer.’

With Heinz’s intermittent search activities, the vampires of the Kingdom of Thalia have been grasped to some extent.

As a result of hiding the body with “concealment” and “transparency”, and collecting information with “intelligence”…

Ironically, I found out that they were using the entire mansion of the great aristocrat as their stronghold.

‘Maybe that noble is a clan lord.’

There was not enough time to fully grasp the detailed information.

Because Heinz’s first priority was to put Heterosys on a stable orbit.

The full-scale clan reception work will be done after that.

“Hmmm… well then…”

Now that I’ve had a big incident this time, it’s time to settle my karma.

‘I think my karma points were a little over 300,000 before I started working on Auterica in earnest.’

The main events that happened after that.

Heinrich was ordained as a paladin and began his activities in the church.

Harley was completed in Hans’s secret laboratory and grew up hunting monsters to become a mercenary as a warrior.

‘So far, nothing special has happened.’

Most of them were close to the time of personal growth, so it was difficult to see that they had a big impact on the world.

So, most of the karma I got this time was from the process of saving the high elf candidate Cecily…

『Karma Shop』

『Enhance Unique Skills (800,000)』

『Status Enhancement – View Details』

『Retained Karma – 668,189』

‘Ambiguous. Is Cecily still a candidate?’

I thought that the unity between the Elven Kingdom, the High Elf Lapori, the saints of the Shinto Order, and even high-ranking people was a bit complicated.

‘No, the immediate karma was not everything.’

As he had experienced before, karma increased fluidly whenever his influence changed the world afterwards.

After that, Cecily was officially a high elf and whenever he did something big, it affected his karma.

Perhaps the same is true for others involved in this matter.

‘It doesn’t matter now. Anyway, sooner or later, an event that can explode karma is prepared.’

It’s a pity that I couldn’t enhance my unique skill right away, but there was no need to rush.

Even at this moment, the fateful moment was approaching every moment.

***

“Sorry for being rude. Lapori.”

“no. I understand well that it is an important issue. And this is nothing compared to the help the denomination has given me.”

The saint’s apologies continued.

In order to proceed with the work, Lapori had to accept the ‘Blessing of Silence’ of the denomination.

The high elf was the leader of the elven kingdom, so it was a diplomatic disrespect, but he accepted it without any hesitation.

That is why it was considered that the debt owed to the denomination was large this time.

bumbling—

They were now on their way through a complicated passageway to the depths of the church.

Saint and Archbishop Latius, High Elf Lapori.

And five, including the Chief Inquisitor and Heinrich.

‘I really didn’t think I’d be able to come in.’

Of course, it was normal for him to not be able to enter, who had just become a paladin.

No matter how close his divine power is to that of a bishop, the minimum he can access the fragments of the immortal king is at least that of the archbishop.

For that reason, Archbishop Latius expressed his concern this time as well, but he did not strongly oppose it because of the merit Heinrich had made just before.

At that time, the Archbishop himself was greatly impressed by the guidance of the Lord God.

Of course, as a saint, it was not possible to bring him into the seal at will.

“···Come this way.”

A person in a black hood and priestly uniform leading the party.

He was the chief of the heresy interrogation center.

This place was not under the jurisdiction of the saint, and without her permission, no one could enter.

But he who was strict with the rules had no choice but to open the way for her continued words…

‘It seems that the Lord is trying to make Sir Heinrich the enemy of the Immortal King.’

Because the saint’s words had great weight.

‘By the way, it’s really, really, really hidden.’

The underground passage, which he knew and defended in the past, was just the beginning.

Complex corridors like a maze, secret doors that can only be opened under certain conditions, and even the s*xual law traps and barriers scattered throughout.

A long and complicated hallway continued to the point where I wondered how the hell was such a space hidden.

‘···Sacred Law Barrier. It is also at a far-off level that I cannot comprehend…’

He also had quite a bit of proficiency in the Sacred Law as he had learned the “Auterica Sacred Law”, but this was not even at that level.

A space made in such a way that it cannot be reached by breaking down walls or digging tunnels without going through the official passageway.

In the middle of such a place, the last ‘Fragment of the Immortal King’ was sealed.

‘Isn’t there a way other than to destroy the real church and find the passage step by step? There’s no way that’s possible.’

The passage continued without end.

By activating one of several gates in the middle, it was only possible to move to the next place through a short distance movement.

A place that has reached the end of such compulsive security.

“this place···.”

The group released the last security and quietly followed the Inquisitor’s back into the room.

‘That’s great.’

Golden prayers to suppress black magic were engraved throughout the pure white room.

Even to the door they opened and entered.

And it was in the middle.

On the altar built up as if dedicated to the gods.

It was wrapped in a thin silver chain connected to five pillars erected around it.

‘That’s the fragment of the last immortal king…’

In front of Heinrich’s nose, it was there.
