I Will Be the Only One Who Heals at the Prison Academy - Chapter 330
330 – Castles for the Dead #3
330 – Castle for the Dead #3
I said.
“There is a woman you are looking for in this castle.”
Ssurre-.
Eyes narrowing at my words.
━To the point where he entered Zoroastara’s fortress without fear, with feet of clay. If there is a woman you are looking for, she must be your lover, right?
“No.”
That might be the case with Luke.
But for me, Yumi could not be the object of love.
“It is something that must be avenged.”
━Revenge. In a way, it would be another form of love. It’s romantic to reach this eternal frozen castle for revenge.
“…”
How revenge becomes a form of love.
He was a strange guy.
Is it because there are only bones?
━There was a time when I was like that too. A time when I was enjoying romance around the world with my lover, His Majesty Gilgamesh. Even though the man married women who were princesses of foreign countries…
The Death Wizard had a lot to say.
That was very surprising.
“Oh, I thought I couldn’t say anything else.”
━The language of the dead and the language of the living are different. No matter what I say, the living won’t understand. The wavelength is different. I also don’t understand what they are saying.
I guess so.
Was there such a setting?
It was a story I didn’t know about.
I felt my achievement points finally exceeding 90 and reaching close to 100.
“Anyway, I’m looking for a woman named Yumi. She must be in a safe area here. I will not harm you. Cooperate. “I don’t even reciprocate.”
Zech.
I handed out the “Snow Lily” To the Death Wizard.
━It’s a flower, so it’s romantic. Although the heart has already stopped and disappeared, flowers make the hearts of many women flutter. His Majesty often gave me gifts as well.
“Then—”
━But rather than that, let’s talk about it. For the first time in hundreds of years, someone with whom I can communicate has come. You can’t miss this opportunity.
I thought things would work out well through conversation.
Rather, I never thought that something annoying would happen through conversation.
“The Wizard of Death – Zoroastera” Seems to have been a person who liked talking more than expected.
If I refuse to say “I don’t like it,” Will a fight break out?
I wasn’t a good talker, but I liked new content, so I decided to ask and answer some simple questions.
━Defeat that fire dragon? That’s amazing. It’s truly a performance worthy of the name of a hero. If so, you can have a good match with me.
Zoroastera smiles.
Did I stimulate my fighting spirit for no reason?
Gooo-.
A chill that seemed to freeze even to the bone emanated from the Death Wizard.
A wizard on par with a giant dragon.
Her power was by no means lower or worse than that of a dragon.
“…”
As I put my hand on the sword at my waist, he added.
━But it’s a shame. Because I can’t fight the boy due to restrictions. The boy is probably a warrior of death. I am her her servant her her her. I can’t argue with my master’s champion.
It was the moment when I realized why I was not attacked by the dead.
It’s because I encountered the god of death.
━It seems like he has something more interesting in his pocket. Can you show me? It must be hard and solid.
Zech.
A bony finger pointed to my lower body.
I was confused for a moment, but then I realized that what he was pointing at was a dice.
From noble mtl dot come
“Is this it?”
I showed the dice.
8-eye dice.
Soon Astara’s blue eyes flashed red.
━Dice of Destiny. Even in all the world, only one pair holds something precious that exists.
“Do you know anything about this?”
━My king Gilgamesh said. A place where the gods were invited. There, they threw a dice with 8 eyes. It was said to be a room with all kinds of cards, dice, and boards.
“Room of Dice.”
━Yes, that was the name. It was said that my king had his last turn there. There were only 17 spaces left until the goal. But he stopped.
It’s a famous story.
━People cursed the king, calling him a coward. But I know. The king was a kinder and a kinder person than anyone else. So he gave up his turn. There must have been a reason for that.
Zoroastera added the back story.
━17. The king said that the person who can roll the dice and get the number 17 should become king. That’s all I remember.
Picking the number 17 with dice?
There was no way that was possible.
If you throw two 8-eye dice, the maximum number is only 16.
I don’t know why I said that.
While I was wondering, the skeleton wizard spoke.
━The story has become longer. It’s because a customer came to visit after a long time and made a lot of noise. Did he say he was looking for a girl? Go and do whatever you want. Because I won’t get involved at all.
Good.
Permission was received from the master in the north.
Of course, the story cannot end here.
“I didn’t mention it, but one of my acquaintances came here with me. “I hope he doesn’t get attacked by the dead or you.”
━It must be the boy hiding over there. I wasn’t paying attention because my eyes were focused on you, but that kid is also an interesting kid. You are a child born under the star of the brave.
Did you already notice that Luke was there?
It seems like he suffered fewer attacks because he came with me.
However, there was one word that bothered me.
“Star of the Brave? What is that?”
━It is the most brilliant star among the countless stars in the sky. Fate will train him and make him a brave man and a hero. Those born under that star can never hide from the world. Like my king.
It is indeed Palja who will become the main character.
However, the wizard added one word.
━But unfortunately, the king lost his power. He could have shined brighter than anyone else. Even I, who have no heart left to regret, feel sorry.
* * *
“Are you okay? You fought alone with that terrifying monster… !”
Luke, who was hiding in the corner, asked.
I answered lightly.
“Okay. I asked permission from the owner to stay here. And I received permission to capture Yumi, who is staying here.”
“…”
Luke looked like he couldn’t believe it.
Actually, I was also quite confused by the situation just now.
But it’s true, so what can I do?
Anyway.
Now the problem I was worried about has been solved.
All that remains is the biggest problem.
“Now we will go to the safe area located beyond the throne hall.”
“At las…”
Luke clenched his fists.
I decided to give him advice again.
“Luke, don’t forget your promise to me. “If you release him or help him out of love for Yumi, I will cut you down without mercy.”
“…”
Luke nodded his head silently.
The expression was very serious.
“Victor, trust me.”
“Honestly, I don’t believe it.”
“That’s too honest. But even if it were the other way around, I wouldn’t have believed it either. Victor, if your girlfriends Nikena Victorica and Miss Enio had run away like this…”
Luke nodded his head as if he was convinced.
But it became more difficult for me to understand.
“What happened to my girlfriend?”
“Miss Nike, Miss Victorica, and Miss Enio. If those friends betrayed us and ran away, and I was with you in a situation where we had to chase them like this—.”
“No, they are not my girlfriends.”
I said seriously.
Then Luke rubbed his nose and said.
“I knew you would say that. But you don’t have to hide it from me. “I don’t want to criticize you for dating three people at the same time.”
“…”
“Is that why you tried to find the crown? According to the kingdom’s laws, a person who becomes king can have multiple wives, like the old king Gilgamesh.”
It was a dizzying moment in many ways.
If Luke says this, doesn’t that mean he’s already spread the word to other guys?
In the eyes of others, did I look like a devilish playboy who was dating three women at the same time?
It would be better to be called a hunting dog without blood or tears.
That might be kind of cool.
“Now that I think about it, my teacher Avon was a man who revealed women. He used to pat the buttocks of girls passing by and get slapped. “When I look at you, I really think of my teacher.”
It was Luke, smiling and rubbing his nose.
For some reason, my evaluation of this father, whom I have never met, continues to decline.
In many ways, I lost my mind.
If I don’t concentrate, my consciousness will scatter.
“Anyway, that’s not important right now.”
Catch Yumi.
You have to put all your attention there.
I turned around and headed to the back of the huge hall where the throne was placed.
There will be a “Safe zone” There to prepare for the boss battle with the wizard.
Originally, you would have to go through the “Safe Zone” And then face the throne, but since I went through the underground route, the order was reversed.
Even Yumi would never have thought that there would be someone who would turn around from the boss room.
“Is it here?”
I finally stood in front of the huge ivory door.
A bonfire is engraved on the door.
It is a symbol of “Safe zone”.
When I opened it with my hand, a warm feeling hit my face.
“Is the bonfire lit?”
The fact that there is a bonfire lit in the safe area is evidence that someone has been using this area until recently. In fact, traces of people were visible here and there.
Socks, underwear that someone had hung on a chair, and clothes that looked like they had been washed were peeling off. It is truly a landscape full of life.
Bubble bubble bubble.
Water boiling on a brazier located in the center.
A torn ramen bag was also seen next to it.
Did they just add soup?
“I was here just now.”
Luke asked as I calmly evaluated.
“… Did you escape with a scroll or something?”
“No, if that had happened, there would have been traces left on the floor. This is something that has disappeared. It was probably wrapped in something like an “Invisibility cloak” Or a “Cloak of concealment.”
Stealth item.
We have already taken measures against hidden monsters.
“Victor, what about that?”
“It’s a 《Flash Orb》. “I got it from Victorica.”
Pot-!
I exploded a flash ball on the floor.
The flash orb produces the same effect as the basic magic of light attribute, “Flash.”
Its power is very low, but it has the effect of removing concealment.
Paaat-!
Around the time when the light coming out gradually faded away.
I saw someone clinging to the wall and trembling.
It was Yumi wearing only light blue underwear.
I was curious as to why he was wearing underwear, but looking at the clothes he had taken off, I guess he was at least changing his clothes while making ramen.
“Victor, and Luke… ! All the way to this point… !”
The guy’s face turned bright red, I don’t know if it was anger or shame.
Luke immediately spoke to the guy.
“Yumi, stop doing this now! Let’s go back to Ludens! And ask for forgiveness in front of everyone! I’ll help you too! Whatever punishment you receive, I will share it with you. Then—.”
“Forgiveness? Don’t be ridiculous! Why should I ask for forgiveness! It wasn’t me who was at fault! Rather, Luke, stop Viktor! “Just as long as I get out of here!”
I flinch.
Luke’s body his trembled.
Yumi shouted even more, as if she had found something that could be called a gap in her heart.
“You’re childhood friends! You like me! So, stop Viktor for me!”
“…”
Luke seemed to look at me and Yumi alternately and then shook his head.
“You can’t do that. Because I promised everyone! Yumi, it’s my fault you ended up like that. I feel sorry for you. But I can’t just watch you cause trouble anymore!”
Sereung.
Luke draws his sword.
Is it safe to say that at least I won’t get stabbed in the back by this guy?
If so, I too can move with peace of mind.
“It’s useless. Luke, you’ve always been like that. It wags its tail at me like a puppy every time, but in the end it’s useless at important moments. You son of a b*tch! “You are not even my friend!”
Yumi screamed like a witch.
Then he stuck his hand into her air, took something out of her, and threw it on her floor.
“Eat this!!!”
Paaat-!
It was a fireball spouting fierce flames.
It is a tier 2 throwing craft item “Flame Bead”.
The effect was to inflict fire damage and the debuff ‘burn’ over a wide range.
Grumbling.
A fire broke out in the safe area of the Ice Fortress.
“Wow!”
Luke screams.
Before I knew it, I was surrounded by flames and struggling.
“Ugh! “Hot!”
“…”
Grumbling.
Flames cling to my body too.
It’s hot.
While feeling dizzy for a moment, Yumi opened the door on the opposite side of where we came from and started running away. Ssurre-.
Soon the fire went out from my body.
“Wild flower bracelet” That makes a loud noise.
The reason the flame went out faster than Luke’s was probably because the item Nike gave him was effective.
“I won’t let you run away now.”
If you miss it now, you never know when you might get another chance.
There may never be a chance.
I immediately followed Yumi in the direction she ran away from.
The distance is approximately 20 meters.
Kaching-!
At that time, I felt an intense pain in my feet.
“Is this a “Bear trap”?”
“It’s ugly!”
“Bear Trap,” A trap that causes great damage and ties up your feet.
Now I see that it was tying my feet.
It is not just a “Bear trap.”
Traps such as “Falling Blades” And “Arrow Hell” Were seen installed in the hallway.
It seems that Yumi has also built her own defense line.
Crackling. Ka-ching!
I disarmed the bear trap by squeezing the sheath between the trap’s teeth.
However, perhaps because of the short time spent, the distance from Yumi has become a little distant.
The movement speed is also faster than expected.
You may not even know if you are using an item like “Boots of Speed”.
“But it doesn’t matter.”
I quickly kicked the floor of the fortress.
I catch up with Yumi by using ‘movement cancel’, a bug that erases the determination that I have moved.
“W-what is that! Why don’t you stop at the trap! Why don’t you die! Why is it so fast!”
Pat, ka-ching, kwaang-!
All kinds of traps exploded or shot blades whenever I moved.
All kinds of attacks rained down on my shoulders, arms, legs, and face, but I was able to withstand it.
Because I knew this would happen, I increased my HP significantly with food.
“… Monster!”
“No more than you.”
Finally, my palm caught Yumi’s braided hair.
Grasp-.
Perhaps because she gripped it so strongly, Yumi loses her balance and falls to the floor, letting out a scream of “aaah!”
Kwadang!
But she didn’t have time to reflect on the sight.
She is a person who does not know what she will do.
I tied Yumi’s hands behind her back using the “Tough vine” That I had tied around her her waist her her her.
“Hey, let go of this! Pervert guy! Pervert b*stard! You devil! Garbage!”
“Say whatever you want.”
Fortunately, the specifications of Yumi’s body she were not that strong.
All you have to do is prevent him from using the ‘item’ that will become a variable.
Struggling.
Even the legs of the guy who was struggling so hard were restrained.
Now that it can’t move, all we have to do is put a petrification spell in its mouth.
That was the time when I thought so.
Pot-.
Something hit my chest.
Did Yumi do something?
No, no.
A third party intruded.
Due to his attack, my body was thrown into the air and hit the wall.
“Ugh.”
It was a powerful attack.
When she opened her eyes, I saw a woman with black hair tied back and holding a long spear.
「Black Dog – Garna」.
He is an executive of Fimblebert.
I said I couldn’t see anything these days. Was it somewhere like this?
“I was planning on killing you by piercing your heart. “The body is quite strong.”
Garna wiped the blood off the tip of her spear.
And then he adds one word.
“Yumi Daisy may be a picky girl, but she is an important business partner for our leader. Victor, I can’t let it be taken away from you.”
Escort.
It was clear that Orca had assigned Yumi as an escort.
I thought there would be such a variable.
Gather with me.
Yumi wriggles between the two.
“Garna! Get it done quickly! And release my restraints!”
“You’re a loud girl. I don’t know why Orca is surrounding this country girl. I’m good at making amazing items, but that’s about it. “Do you have a taste for twisted women?”
Bung bung-.
Garna turns the black spear and aims it at me.
“By all means, I am your opponent.”
Garna broke down while speaking.
Bright red blood spurted from its her chest her her, coloring this dark blue ice castle.
“Uh, when…”
Sereung, Tak.
I just speak lightly as I put my sword in its sheath
“Shadow cutting.”
Now, I am not the one to be blocked by Garna, the mid-boss.
How much has your level increased since we met then?
I also have Balmung in my hand.
It was then.
Hehe, hehe.”
Yumi started laughing.
Have I gone crazy?
“Why are you smiling?”
I lifted Yumi up, who was lying on the floor like fried shrimp.
From noble mtl dot come
Then he pried his mouth open with his finger
Crack.
He bit my finger, but it didn’t hurt that much.
I forced Yumi’s mouth open and looked inside.
“Didn’t you hide something like poison?”
If you watch movies or cartoons, you’ll see people putting something like poison in their mouths for suicide.
Fortunately or unfortunately, there was no such thing.
Even then, Yumi was laughing.
I wanted to ask the reason, but Yumi said it without me having to ask.
“… Blood! The smell of blood will spread!”
“Blood?”
“There are dead people in this fortress! I don’t know how you got here, but soon they will smell blood and the dead will come flocking to you! It’s already too late!”
Haha, Yumi laughs loudly.
It’s scary.
“How stupid!” Will be torn to pieces by the hands of the dead!!! Quickly release me! Then I can help you escape from here!!! Hurry up!!!”
“…”
Dalgrak, Dalgak.
Guard.
An ominous sound was coming from beyond that hallway.
Yumi trembled at that sight and screamed in even more anger.
“Also, there was a commotion just now with a “Flame ball” Exploding and a trap being activated! The king of the dead here doesn’t like noise, right? “I don’t know if I have a high likeability rating, but someone likes you—!”
“It lures strong monsters and traps people─. It’s the same as Fairy Vein. I’m glad you’re still the same. Because you don’t even have to feel any sympathy.”
I also don’t suffer the same thing twice.
