Sand Mage of the Burnt Desert - Chapter 339



Only Noblemtl

Episode 339

If we were to summarize Zeon’s life over the past few days, it would be that of a hermit.

He literally stayed home and became a recluse.

I lived a secluded life at home without ever going out for a single moment.

When I’m sleepy, I sleep on the sofa, when I’m hungry, I cook and eat, then I rest and sleep again…

I just kept repeating my life at home like a hamster wheel.

During that time, Brielle and Levin went out several times.

It was to the point where Brielle had told him several times to just go out of the house. But Zeon ignored Brielle’s words and just stayed at home.

“Huh!”

Zion woke up and stretched for the first time in a long while.

It felt like I slept for almost twelve hours.

I slept so much that my whole body creaked and I screamed.

-beep?

Gaia looked at Zeon with a worried expression.

Zeon chuckled and patted Gaia’s head.

“I was planning on moving today anyway.”

-Beep?

“It’s true!”

With great difficulty, Zeon lifted his butt off the sofa.

To be honest, I felt sorry.

I’ve been lying on the sofa for so long that I feel like I’ve become one with it, but I feel a little empty.

But Zeon shook off his foolishness and put on the robe hanging on the wall.

Neither Brielle nor Levin were seen going out, not even a shadow was visible.

Zeon said to Gaia.

“I’m going outside, so do you want to go into subspace?”

-beep!

Gaia immediately opened a subspace and went inside.

I couldn’t help but laugh as I watched Gaia freely using her own subspace as if it were her own home.

When I went outside for the first time in a while, my eyes hurt from the strong sunlight. However, after a while of adjusting, the pain quickly went away.

The place Jeon headed to after a long time was the goblin market.

I wasn’t going there because I had something special to buy.

Whenever I go out, I end up going out like a habit.

“The streets are certainly deserted. It looks like a lot of people have left for the new magic stone mine.”

Even though it was broad daylight, there weren’t many people on the streets.

It felt like it had been reduced by more than half.

Of course, not that much would have escaped.

The Magic Stone Mine is not something that everyone can go to just because they want to.

You must have that kind of ability.

There aren’t as many people with that ability as you might think.

Eventually, many people were filtered out and only a few were able to go to the magic stone mine.

“This is a newly created drill. It is a brand new product that operates on the lowest level magic stone.”

“These are tough and durable pants. They are made from the hide of a horse, so they will never tear, no matter how hard you work.”

The goblin market I visited after a long time was full of energy.

The merchants enjoyed enormous privileges.

Just like during the old gold rush, the people who sold things to the gold miners got richer than the people who mined the gold.

Even in an open-pit mine, equipment such as drills and transport vehicles were essential.

Because of this, many people stopped by here to buy the things they needed.

Thanks to this, the merchants here were enjoying unprecedented prosperity.

“Good!”

It was when Zeon started walking with a smile.

“Zeon!”

A familiar voice stopped his steps.

When I looked at the place where the voice came from, I saw Yoo Se-hee approaching me with quick steps.

Behind her, the Black Lion and Akashi of the Helbrin Mercenaries followed.

“It’s been a while. How have you been?”

“As you can see, I’m crazy.”

Yoo Se-hee shrugged.

The boom in the goblin market was also a huge boost for her.

She already had great power, but as the goblin market prospered, enormous power was concentrated in her.

It was a time when we couldn’t sell because we had a shortage of goods.

In the past, you had to be wary of powerful raiding parties, but now things have changed.

The companies in charge of the raids and mining have ended up having to cater to her.

Thanks to that, her shoulders were full of mulberries.

Jeon’s gaze turned to Akashi, who was behind Yoo Se-hee.

“I see you’re doing well too.”

“Oh, yes! I am just grateful to you, Lord Zeon.”

Akashi answered, bowing his head.

He was very satisfied with his current life.

Due to the nature of the Goblin Market, sometimes you have to go to the dungeon that the raid party is raiding to get items.

It was to secure the items obtained from the dungeon in advance.

Akashi only had to work then.

There was honestly almost no danger, as you just had to detect the devil in advance and avoid it.

Traveling to and from the desert occurred only once or twice a month at most.

The rest of the time I just sat around playing and waiting, so it seemed like I was just gaining weight.

I thought to myself that if I had known I would eat this much raw, I should have left the Helbrin mercenary corps and joined the goblin market a long time ago.

Zeon said.

“It’s nice to see you. Keep living like that.”

“It’s all thanks to you, Zeon. Thank you.”

Akashi bowed his head to express his gratitude.

“no.”

“I will definitely repay this favor.”

“Okay. What about grace?”

Jeon looked at Yoo Se-hee with an awkward expression.

Yoo Se-hee said with a sly smile.

“Do you need anything? Just ask and I’ll get it for you.”

“No, I just came out to get some fresh air. If I think of anything else I need, I’ll let you know later.”

“Okay, I’m busy so I’ll be going now.”

“Okay, then.”

“See you next time.”

Yoo Se-hee waved his hand and passed Je-on.

Black Lion and Akashi bowed their heads slightly to Zeon.

It was the best example they could give.

Zeon watched their backs moving away, then quickly moved on.

He wandered around the goblin market for a while, but he couldn’t find anything that he liked.

Since I didn’t have high expectations anyway, I wasn’t disappointed.

Zeon left the goblin market and headed to Clexy’s shop.

He had almost reached Clexi’s inspiration shop.

“My Lord Zeon!”

The manhole cover leading to the sewer opened slightly and someone called out to him.

The person sticking his head out of the manhole was none other than Jetoya.

“Jetoya!”

“As expected, it’s you, Lord Zeon.”

After Jetoya pulled himself out of the manhole, he put the lid back on.

Zeon asked with a puzzled expression.

“What are you doing here?”

“I came here because I had something to discuss.”

“Really? What about food?”

“I haven’t eaten yet.”

“Then let’s talk while we eat.”

“You don’t have to do that… … .”

“I’m saying this because I’m hungry.”

Zeon took Zetoya to the Claxy Inspiration store.

“Welcome. You must have had a good rest. I can see the oil running down your face.”

“Yes! I rested without any worries. This guy will eat too, so please give him plenty of food.”

“Yeah! Some good meat just came in, that guy is lucky. Kkukkuk!”

Clexi looked at Jetoya with a strange smile.

Jetoyah unconsciously shrugged her shoulders at the sight of Clexi’s gaze that seemed to see through everything.

Although he had awakened as a D-class martial artist, Jetoya was still a young boy.

It was still difficult to handle the gaze of an old, experienced raccoon who had experienced everything in the world.

While waiting for the food to arrive, Zeon asked Zetoya.

“So why did you come to see me? Are the other crocodiles bothering you?”

“Other crocodiles never come near our village.”

“okay?”

“Yes! But I’m known to be quite the monopoly… … .”

Jetoya’s words were true.

Although he was young, his abilities were outstanding among crocodiles.

Among ordinary people, as well as among the Awakened, there were few who could subdue Zetoya by force.

There, Jetoya was the only one.

He was nicknamed a real crocodile because he had the tenacity to never let go once he bit.

The cruel hands that would chase and kill anyone even to the ends of hell were already a symbol of Jetoya.

Because of that, even the outlaws of the Crocodile Den couldn’t easily invade the village where Jetoya was.

“Then what’s the problem?”

“Huh? It’s not so much a problem as it is a concern… … .”

“say it.”

“Actually, there is a child who awakened this time.”

“This is something to celebrate.”

“Yes! But the problem is that this child’s ability is too strong… …. He’s a healer, and he can revive people who are dying in an instant.”

“Wait! You’re a healer?”

Mr. Clexi, who was cooking, was startled and joined the conversation.

“Yes! That too is A-class from the start.”

“That’s crazy! A healer who’s been A-class since the beginning.”

Clexi’s mouth was wide open in surprise.

It was such a huge event.

After the Great Destruction, countless Awakened people were born.

Of course, there were quite a few who awakened as healers. However, compared to the total number of awakened people, the percentage of healers was extremely low.

Because of this, healers were treated with great respect by each raiding party. Even if they were only E-rank, they would try to recruit each other.

The best healer rank right now is probably B-rank.

That was an achievement that was barely possible with a lot of experience and support. And yet, he was an A-class healer from the start.

There has never been a case like this since Neo Seoul began.

Zeon muttered with a serious expression.

“If you’re A-class from the start, you’ll be S-class in no time.”

“A top-class healer was born in a place that was like a cesspool. If the outsiders find out about this, they’ll try to take him away.”

“I guess so.”

“This is not an ordinary case.”

Clexi’s expression was also serious.

It was said that he saved a dying person in an instant.

With that level of ability, every raid party and guild will rush into the crocodile den to recruit you.

A-class healers were worth that much.

That is, if he is a healer who is certain to be a future S-class.

Zeon asked.

“Who else knows this fact?”

“For now, only the villagers and I know.”

“That’s fortunate.”

The crocodile den was completely sealed off from the outside world.

Since only awakened people like Jetoya travel to and from the outside, there is little exchange of information.

Clexi Inspiration said urgently.

“Hey, wait a minute! If she’s really an A-class healer, then we need to protect her… … .”

“Since when did the Goblin Market and the Eye of Argos start caring about the Crocodile Den?”

“The situation is different. Not only is he different, he’s a Grade A healer. We can treat him and protect him much more humanely than if he were to go over to another group of Awakened people.”

“I’ll see for myself and decide.”

Zeon cut off Clexi’s words coldly.

No matter how close you are to Clexi Inspiration, there are lines you have to keep between you and him.

It was the old man Clexi who usually kept the line well. However, it seemed that he also had a hard time keeping the line in front of the A-class healer who appeared for the first time.

In times like these, Jeon had to step in and draw a clear line.

This is because the person that Jetoya came to see was none other than Zeon.

Fortunately, Clexi’s inspiration was also well aware of this fact.

“Ugh! I lost my senses because I was impatient. If you need help, just let me know.”

“yes!”

Zeon looked at Zetoya and answered briefly.

Jetoya was looking at Zeon with an anxious expression.

“Let’s eat first and then go down to the basement.”

“Are you going to move it yourself, Lord Zeon?”

“Would that make you feel better?”

“That’s right! I’m only a D-class, but when I think about becoming an A-class Awakened, my head feels like it’s going to explode.”

“Okay! Then let’s do that.”

“thank you.”

Jetoya’s expression brightened.

Zeon was the only believer on earth.

I thought I would feel a little bit more secure if he was with me.

Then, the inspiration of Clexi placed a large bowl in front of Jetoya and said.

“Here, eat as much as you want. I put in a lot of meat. Hehe!”

Jetoya suddenly felt burdened by the smile of Mr. Clexi, who revealed his yellow teeth.

“Tch!”

Zeon clicked his tongue.

Because the inner thoughts of Clexi’s inspiration were clearly visible.

‘By the way, a super healer was born in an underground sewer. I really hope this doesn’t affect the surface.’
