Episode 147

74. Got a clue – 1

At first I thought it was a metaphor.

As Lee Han blankly stared at her, Shuren hesitated and then sighed.

“You thought it was a metaphor?”

“Uh… … isn’t it?”

“It was real.”

Shuren’s voice lowered slightly as if he was telling a legend.

Shuren’s fellow magician, who was sipping makgeolli next to him, also nodded.

“I saw it clearly with my own two eyes.”

“… … What?”

“A huge bird. It was so big that it seemed to cover the sky. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it carried the earth on its back.”

Lee Han looked at Shuren’s remaining two colleagues.

The expressions on both of their faces were very sad.

It was as if Shuren and the wizard had been drinking and seeing things.

“No, I’m telling you, it’s true?!”

“We really saw it!”

“If there weren’t any bottles of alcohol next to you two, we would believe you too… … .”

“Considering the alcohol you drank back then, don’t you think your testimony is unreliable?”

Shuren scratched his bushy head at their remarks.

Why did you have to drink at that time?

But what can we do about what has already happened?

“Anyway, I really saw it. And when I asked the villagers, they said that the bird was a legendary spirit. It was a great bird.”

“It’s a big one… … .”

I don’t know much about the spirits of this world.

But isn’t there anyone who knows better?

Lee Han thought for a moment, then lifted the crystal ball, and after a while, someone who could confirm their words came.

“I was wondering why you were calling me… … Daebong. It’s been a long time since I’ve heard that name.”

It was a dragon.

She and Letish were wearing stained aprons, as if they had just come from an experiment.

She spoke without even glancing at Shuren and her group, who were completely frozen in her presence.

“That’s right. The Great Bong exists.”

Lee Han stared at Yong, who was recalling old memories.

It seemed like he had something more to say.

“The last time I saw it was when humans existed. When all humans disappeared to the forces of chaos, the Great Bong left the continent.”

“Why did you leave?”

“It’s simple. Because there’s nothing left to eat. The giant hawks eat spider webs and bamboo berries, but only humans can grow bamboo berries.”

But now that the human is gone, doesn’t that mean there’s nothing left to eat?

That is why the dragon said that the great phoenix ate all the bamboo fruits left in the world and went to the end of the world.

“There are spider webs.”

“That’s why they’re still alive and not starving. I’ve heard rumors that once every few years, the great eagle visits the continent to see if bamboo fruit has formed naturally. They must have seen it.”

The dragon pointed to the still frozen Shuren group and shrugged his shoulders.

Lee Han shook his head at her expression, which seemed to ask if she had anything more to ask.

“The work of making the dolls into single rings is progressing well.”

“But if it’s alchemy, can you make a single ring?”

“When I learned alchemy, a long time ago, alchemy and alchemy were one discipline. Later, the unscrupulous were unable to accept the discipline, so they divided it into alchemy and alchemy.”

“Oh, I see.”

“In that sense, Leticia is quite talented. She is also skilled in alchemy. If you teach her well, she will be of great help to you.”

“For me?”

“Didn’t you say you were fighting the Marquis of Caloitz? I heard he has quite a lot of power. He’s even allied with the forces of chaos.”

Instead of answering, Lee Han chuckled.

The attitude was that it wouldn’t be that hard to deal with someone as simple as the Marquis of Caloitz.

The dragon chuckled, perhaps liking his confident appearance, then patted him on the shoulder and went back home.

“Who, who was it just now?”

Even he, who was called the hero of the elves, could not even breathe properly in front of the dragon.

But Lee Han was unfazed by that enormous presence.

A true hero indeed.

Shuren’s eyes sparkled as he thought of a great being who would influence an era.

“You are truly amazing.”

“It’s nothing special. Anyway, I guess we should consider the wind tree growing on the back of the great eagle.”

“yes.”

It’s a difficult situation.

It’s not in one place, it’s flying, and it’s somewhere you don’t even know where it is, like the end of the world.

I wondered if the fairy would know, so I called Luna, who was still playing and awake, and asked her.

But she also seemed unaware of the place called the end of the world.

“I’ll go ask the Queen and come back~.”

She headed to Fairyland without any complaints.

Lee Han, who thought he should make her a cake when he got back, bowed his head to Shuren, who looked quite flustered after seeing the fairy Luna.

“Anyway, thank you. Thanks to you, I got a clue.”

“It’s not a very helpful clue. We received more from Mr. Lee Han.”

If it weren’t for him, they would have starved to death in the dungeon.

As Shuren and his colleagues snickered, Lee Han stood up from his seat.

“I know this is a thank you, but would you like to stay here for a while before you go?”

“Yes? No, I’m afraid I’m bothering you, Mr. Lee Han… … I’m planning on leaving tomorrow… … .”

“It’s because I want to give you something good.”

“If it’s good… … ?”

“It’s a doll doll.”

“… … Yes? What?”

Shuren and his group could not help but gape at Lee Han’s words.

The next day, Shuren and his party were shocked when they saw Heinkel, and bowed their heads in respect when they saw the tree.

In addition, he seemed to be burning with fighting spirit when facing a strong opponent like Hongryeon.

“So? You’re going to give them dolls?”

“yes.”

“Oh? That’s good. Your influence will grow.”

“It’s not just because of that… … .”

There was no problem since I had obtained the seeds of the doll’s ginseng.

Hongryeon said nothing serious and then looked at Shuren and his group sparring with Heinkel.

“By the way, are you going to make them work too?”

“He asked me to do it.”

At first, they told them to just rest and then go, but Shuren and his group said they were not so shameless and volunteered to work.

Farming is always short of workers.

Since it was the law that those with ability should be used, Lee Han decided to accept them.

“Have a meal.”

Those who finished their morning training gathered around the table.

People are bustling around the table.

Thinking that it would be worth feeding them, Lee Han said after serving them a dish that satisfied them.

“Now that we have more people, we can focus more on barley and hops. In the meantime, I will look into the Hyeongseolsam side.”

“Who are you going there with?”

“I think it would be okay for me and Treeman to go.”

“Won’t the monsters be a headache?”

“So I thought I’d help you.”

The dragon appeared out of nowhere and said with a smile.

Lee Han, who made affogato for her, brought out bread and looked at Yong, who was dipping it in the affogato.

“It looks like the single ring will be made tomorrow. Now that I have some free time, I can put my efforts into that.”

“thank you.”

If there was a dragon, it would be like having a thousand troops.

Lee Han was satisfied, and Yong smiled faintly at him.

“So, can you give me one more root of the 100-year-old Hyeong-in Seol-sam?”

“I don’t mind giving it to you, but… … what do you plan to use it for?”

“I’m trying to make a potion to bring back the great sea bream.”

In that case, there was no reason to refuse.

* * *

Since the arrival of Shuren and his party, Lee Han has continuously demonstrated his talents in doll making.

After ten days, the black blood dragon’s eyes sparkled.

“Awesome… … .”

The body feels very refreshed thanks to the divine energy created by the five roots of 100-year-old Hyeong-in Seol-sam.

Black Blood Dragon tapped the tree standing next to him.

“Are you going to grow that here again?”

“Yeah. There’s still a lot of magical power gathered in this land. I said I can’t give it up.”

Tree said lightly, recalling the conversation he had with Lee Han before.

The fact that people who can now be called friends will continue to come here and that you can feel the spiritual energy created by the elixir growing here.

Thanks to all of that, the face of Heukhyeoldaewang was indescribably bright.

“Then let’s go collect it.”

Lee Han dug up the doll’s ginseng with great care.

As each root emerged, the cheers continued.

“This… is really amazing.”

“Just smelling it makes me feel energized.”

“It’s not like it’s rising, it’s rising. The magic power is slowly building up.”

It’s not like Shuren and his party didn’t see the doll snow three while acting as heroes of the elves.

But none of the doll-shaped ginseng they had ever seen was as good as the doll-shaped ginseng that Lee Han had just harvested.

Just by smelling it, you can increase your magical power. How much stronger would you be if you took that?

Expectations were the same for Heinkel, Schroeder, and Hongryeon.

Lee Han casually handed over the doll-shaped rice cake to them, who were drooling so much that they wanted to chew on it right away.

“Here. Take one each. Sir Shuren, please take one of these too.”

“Huh… …Can I really accept this?”

Unlike those who received it with a big smile, Shuren felt quite burdened.

What Lee Han promised was not just this one root.

There were four roots in total, including the ones to be grown next time.

Even though Shuren and his party were treated as heroes by the elves, they had never enjoyed the luxury of eating one doll’s sam each.

But it felt very awkward to receive this kind of reward with just a little friendship and a little information.

“Haha. Take when you give. When you give.”

“Oh. Yes… … .”

Shuren, still intimidated by the dragon, accepted the doll with trembling hands.

He looked back at his colleagues hesitantly, but they nodded as if telling him to eat first.

“Okay then! Let’s eat!”

Schrader, Hongryeon, Heinkel, and Schren all put the doll’s sashimi in their mouths at once.

Every time I chewed the hard sesame seeds, I could smell a deep fragrance. And.

“Ugh… … .”

“Ugh.”

“Hoooooo… … .”

“This, this is… … .”

The medicinal effects of Hyeong-in Seol-sam took effect immediately.

Just one root.

It wasn’t the power created by the elixir that took about ten days to grow.

A powerful magical power, as if rushing in like a storm, began to flow through my entire body.

It wasn’t easy to control it, but there was no one in this place who couldn’t do it.

They quickly began to absorb the enormous medicinal effects into their bodies, and soon after, they all took in the effects and sighed deeply without saying who would take the first step.

“… … This is no joke.”

Hongryeon slowly opened her eyes and muttered softly.

Her deep eyes became even deeper.

Shredder’s body has completely changed.

The gray fur has been dyed pure white.

Although Heinkel and Schren had not changed much, they could feel that their power had become stronger.

That’s why they saw the miracle that brought about this tremendous result.

But even under their gaze, Lee Han indifferently planted the seeds of Hyeongseolsam in the field for the next farming season.
