Regression Sword Apocalypse Reconquest - Chapter 96
Only Noblemtl
Episode 96
Most of the roads are now destroyed.
Not only regular vehicles, but also fairly sturdy vehicles that can withstand monsters such as buses, trucks, and armored vehicles have trouble moving.
That’s why vehicle modifications are necessary.
This is also why Sehyuk often used a motorcycle.
Because off-road driving is easier than in a passenger car.
There are many other modifications you can make as well.
It could be a temporary shelter function in case you are traveling far away and cannot find accommodation.
Or by sending an electric current through the surface of the car to keep monsters away.
Or, you can attach reinforced armor to enhance durability.
That’s why Choi Sung-hyun tried so hard to learn magic that he couldn’t do.
Because if it could be used, magic engineering would be the most efficient way to rebuild ‘civilization’.
A few days after the King of the Undead returned.
During that time, Choi Sung-hyun learned how to use magic power to master magical engineering, and roughly understood how magical engineering worked.
I finished learning it fairly quickly.
It may be possible because his understanding of engineering is quite advanced.
Even so, his understanding of magic was at a level where he could barely light a fire with a lighter.
Of course, Choi Sung-hyun’s process of learning magic engineering was not smooth.
I think we got about halfway through.
There was an incident where Seonghyeon Choi opened the door to Sehyuk’s house with a serious expression and came looking for the magicians rolling around on the sofa.
“I’m in big trouble. I… can’t use the magic I need for magic engineering.”
Using low-level magic. That’s what held me back.
I understood in my head how to use magic, but I got to a point where I couldn’t move my body’s magical power.
Because of that, time was about to be delayed.
Sehyuk found the answer.
“Then, instead of Choi Sung-hyun casting the magic himself, how about having the little dragon and Cha Ye-seong move the magic through trial and error?”
Let’s put it into practice right away. The two combinations were able to implement the magic without any problems, just as Choi Sung-hyun explained.
‘It’s a way back, but what’s important is that it’s possible.’
Choi Sung-hyun, who knows how to move magic power and can see magic power.
As the user of the prophecy and the race itself are dragons close to gods, they were able to perfectly compensate for Choi Sung-hyun’s shortcomings.
Choi Sung-hyun explained it, so just keep doing it ignorantly until the magic works properly.
And now.
After thoroughly checking the use of magic required for magic engineering, Sehyuk and his party gathered at Sehyuk’s house again.
‘No, to be exact, he didn’t come back to our house. He’d been coming here regularly from the beginning.’
It seems like everyone is obsessed with the living room, so when they have time to rest, they all gather around the sofa in the mansion’s living room and laze around.
“ouch!”
Se-hyeok felt annoyed at the sobbing Cha Ye-seong, so he gave her a slap in the face. Then he looked around the room and spoke.
“I’ve called you all together today to get your opinions on vehicle modifications.”
“Then what kind of modification would be good?”
The colleagues gather together for a moment to talk and gather opinions.
There are two directions of modification that have been ultimately decided upon.
“Is this a vehicle accommodation or a flight booster? Okay. I’ll get the materials needed to enchant it.”
Choi Sung-hyun gets up from his seat to go to the computer room/study inside the mansion, carrying a book.
“So now all I have to do is gather the materials?”
“Maybe.”
There was a brief lull. As everyone was trying to rest, Cha Ye-seong spoke to Se-hyeok.
“I… but, you know.”
“why?”
“When do you name your baby?”
At those words, the people inside became silent.
Choi Sung-hyun, who was walking down the hallway, suddenly stops walking and disappears into the room.
Meanwhile, Han Si-hyeon, not knowing what was going on, was looking around at the suddenly frozen atmosphere.
Han Si-Hyeon suddenly realized something.
“You guys, have you not given this little dragon a name until now? Haven’t you been bonding with it for quite some time?”
Everyone was silent. Han Si-Hyeon opened her mouth wide in bewilderment, shock, and slight annoyance at the sight.
It’s no wonder she didn’t understand the situation.
What kind of person in the world adopts a young animal and doesn’t give it a name? As an animal lover, she could never imagine such a thing.
“You piece of trash!!!”
So, the baby naming event has begun.
“You come out here too!”
A horned Han Si-hyeon runs and catches Choi Seong-hyeon, who ran away into the room. His spirit was like that of slave hunters chasing a slave.
Sehyuk gently stopped Han Sihyeon from complaining.
“If you’re going to give it a name, it’d be better to give it a good name. That’s why I didn’t give it one.”
“That’s a cowardly excuse, you punk.”
“I was calling you Yongyong.”
At those words, Han Si-Hyeon now closes her mouth.
“Why aren’t you saying anything?”
“No. Just keep your mouth shut.”
Han Si-hyeon, who had a dissatisfied expression, tried to talk back to him. However, Cha Ye-seong was too honest.
“To be honest, it sucks… .”
Was there a lot that had piled up?
Even the little dragon frowns and nods his head, starting to criticize Sehyuk.
But Sehyuk was confident.
At least he was an efficiency nut who thought that easy-to-call titles were best on the battlefield.
“That’s why I’m giving it a new name. Don’t just criticize, but give me some good opinions.”
As he said that, Sehyuk smiled faintly.
“Are you sure you don’t have confidence?”
This is all a deliberate provocation to increase motivation.
“I’m sorry, but I don’t want to hear that from someone named Yongyong….”
“No, but I’m better at it than Yongyong.”
And these simple and honest girls fell for the provocation wonderfully.
Looking at that sight, Go Jeong-hwan could only smile awkwardly.
“I know you said that to provoke me, but isn’t hitting me like you got punched in the face?”
“I wish you would be quiet.”
* * *
“hmm….”
“hmm….”
Everyone gathers together and starts naming the little dragon.
“Since it’s a long dragon, how about Rayquaza? I feel like it should become a legendary being like the legendary Pokemon.”
This is Choi Sung-hyun’s opinion.
When they hear that, everyone looks taken aback.
“I don’t want to be sued for copyright infringement, so I’ll dismiss it.”
“If your last name is Ma and you were born with the name Mario, wouldn’t you feel a little depressed?”
Choi Sung-hyun, who has been criticized countless times, shrinks.
Next is Han Si-Hyeon’s proposal.
“How about Somnium, Chima, Lactea, and Sio?”
“Aren’t those the names that come up when you search for “pretty Latin names” on the Internet?”
“Be quiet.”
Han Si-hyeon is at a loss for words at Cha Ye-seong’s sharp criticism.
“You’re not that good at naming either, are you?”
“shut up.”
Go Jeong-hwan could only come up with ordinary names like Dong-hyeon, Cheol-yeong, and Seong-su.
Of course, the baby side refused.
“We were fools in the end.”
Sehyuk says bitterly.
This time, no one can refute it.
“Yeah. Did you just find out?”
Han Si-hyeon, unable to contain her irritation, says something.
It’s a sad reality.
Everyone’s eyes are fixed on Cha Ye-seong, the last remaining one.
It feels like it’s saying, “You are our last hope!” Cha Ye-seong scratches her cheek in embarrassment.
“The most important role that Baby Dragon has played so far is purifying water, and since it is white, how about writing the Chinese character for white lotus on the white background and lotus flower, white lotus?”
“Are you okay?”
“I don’t think anything better will come out.”
At least Cha Ye-seong does one thing.
The little dragon also nodded, crossing his arms with his chubby ones, as if he liked it.
On the other hand, there are people who can’t read the mood.
“Is it a white lotus because it’s aged for a hundred years? Haha.”
Of course, the owner of those words is Choi Sung-hyun.
Everyone stops.
“under….”
“You have to be patient.”
Han Si-hyeon sighed. Se-hyeok grabbed Han Si-hyeon’s arm, which was raising a fist, and brought it down.
And then, something unexpected happened.
“north!”
The baby makes a grunting sound and waves to Choi Sung-hyun.
Poof!
A single ray of magical power extending from the small dragon’s finger.
That reached Choi Sung-hyun.
Choi Sung-hyun opens his mouth with a surprised expression.
However, no sound came out of Choi Sung-hyun’s mouth.
“what?”
“I don’t think it’s a silencing spell?”
Surprised colleagues.
Sehyuk quickly realized what this phenomenon was.
“That’s a verb.”
Upon hearing that, Cha Ye-seong’s eyes widened.
“The powers of those dragons that appear in the game?”
“Yeah. Maybe it was something like, Shut up!”
Ugh, ugh, ugh!
Choi Sung-hyun, whose mouth was sealed, gestures here and there in a panic.
“It will probably be resolved soon.”
As he said that, Sehyuk patted the baby dragon, who had a sad expression and half-closed eyes.
‘I didn’t know that until now, that’s surprising.’
If you think about it, you’ve gained a lot of experience so it’s only natural that you’d develop a new trait.
Sehyuk also smiled happily.
Dragon’s Word. The dragon’s own advantage magic.
Its power goes without saying.
It was a powerful status effect technique that could instantly tie up an opponent just by speaking.
It is a magic with tremendous utility.
‘Perhaps the less intelligent you are, the weaker you are, the better the effect.’
As such, we now have a significant countermeasure against mindless monsters and animal-like enemies.
The result was decent.
So, after deciding on the baby’s name as Baekryeon, Choi Sung-hyun went back into the room. Everyone took a short break and chatted.
“Come to think of it, the bandits you said you met before were clearing the road, right?”
“Yeah. I have to go out someday. It’s better to eliminate as many risk factors as possible.”
After meeting the bandits, Sehyuk told his colleagues about it.
Sehyuk also told the bandits who wanted to repay the favor to do a few things.
Road restoration work, fortification of toll gates to prevent invasion by foreign enemies.
Sehyuk gave this work the project name ‘Road Construction’.
It is a well-known fact that blocking is easier than breaking through. That is why Sehyuk decided to break through first and then block.
‘I’m not the one who did it, but you said you would repay the favor, so you’re like my agent.’
If the work on the bandits’ fortress and road maintenance goes smoothly, you will be able to leave your place and wander around without any worries.
However, the project is still in its early stages.
For now, we need to strengthen the car.
“I’ve compiled a list of the magical materials needed to modify vehicles.”
Seonghyeon Choi, who had been groaning in his room for a while, hands Sehyuk a memo with meticulous writing on it.
“I’ve written down a list of ingredients. Please take a look.”
And Sehyuk looked at the materials that Choi Sunghyun had brought and exclaimed inwardly in admiration.
‘These materials remind me of a place. A place with a problem that can be solved very easily with verbs.’
