Chapter 382
who said
People are usually insensitive to changes in their bodies.
I haven’t really been able to agree with you until now. It seems to be right.
In fact, even now, after hearing that my body has changed, I have no real feeling at all.
It just feels like a normal state.
‘I still can’t feel it.’
There is no perceptible change at all.
There was no change in the magic processing speed.
There was no change in mana circulation efficiency or mana absorption efficiency.
Nothing has changed between before and after obtaining the dragon’s mana.
Can you keep an eye out for this?
“But Mimir. Why didn’t you speak sooner?”
“what? Why didn’t I tell you that the Heir’s body is changing?”
“huh.”
I’m not saying this to specifically blame Mimir.
Just a pure question.
Mimir’s words were very logical. Being that detailed means that I have been aware of the changes in my body for a long time.
But why didn’t you tell me beforehand?
“just. I thought the successor would have known about it.”
Mimir replied with a puzzled look on his face.
“Because the heir’s senses are the best in the world. I didn’t think that the Heir wouldn’t notice what I noticed.”
Mimir’s senses are somehow connected to mine.
What Mimir noticed, it’s normal for me to notice too.
From Mimir’s point of view, one might think that he would know of course.
“I wonder if there was an opportunity to say something. You didn’t have a chance to talk about the Heir’s physical condition, right? As the dragon’s mana was digested, there wasn’t a big change right away.”
I haven’t had a chance to talk about this case.
no. I had a chance, but it would be more accurate to say that I didn’t bother to dig deep because I had other, more important things to do.
“… … It did.”
understood.
From Mimir’s point of view, there was no reason to bring up the story of my body changes.
“hmm. But thinking about it again, my thoughts were a bit short. Don’t take it for granted, I wish I’d told you at least once.”
Mimir looked at me with an apologetic expression.
“sorry.”
“What do you have to be sorry about?”
This situation is not anyone’s fault.
It was just an inevitable blind spot that arose as various situations overflowed and the best response was made accordingly.
It’s not Mimir’s fault.
“It was entirely my fault.”
If anyone is at fault in this situation, it is none other than me.
“… … I’m so sorry for both of you.”
I lowered my head, looking at Adela and Soonchan who were still lying next to me.
“Because I acted so thoughtlessly… … .”
It doesn’t matter that Mimir didn’t tell me about the changes in my body.
It’s just a miscommunication that would happen on a daily basis.
What matters is my actions.
The problem is that I ignored Mimir’s words to wait until they return.
This is entirely my mistake.
‘Thinking about it again, I was too hasty.’
Adela and Soon-chan’s lives as wizards almost came to an end.
This situation is not light enough to simply say sorry for misunderstanding and end it.
“… … Certainly, he just proceeded with the work without any countermeasures.”
Lady Elena looked at Adela with a bitter expression, and helped with a word.
“Shin Ha-ryul. It was not like you.”
Aslan-nim glared at me.
The eyes looking at me are full of two words, ‘reproach’.
“Did I fall into the trap of impatience?”
“… … I would be lying if I said no.”
Certainly I was in a hurry.
I thought it was a waste of time to wait for Mimir to return.
That’s why I activated the Bright Magic Stone. If you show me a taste of it now, the training schedule will be advanced even a little bit.
I had such a foolish thought.
“The feeling of impatience creates irreparable mistakes. Just like now.”
“sorry.”
I’m embarrassed.
If there is a hole, I want to go in.
“This is not something to just say sorry and move on. Your immature behavior almost killed your friends.”
“… … .”
I was so ashamed and sorry that I couldn’t raise my head.
“This responsibility… … .”
“Asran.”
Then, Elena-sama intervened.
“Take care of trees in moderation. You are reflecting.”
Aslan-nim frowned.
“I would have said. This is not simply a matter of reflection.”
“It’s a problem that can only be resolved through reflection. I don’t know if something went wrong with the bodies of these two, but there were no aftereffects left.”
“That is the conclusion. The important thing is the reason why you did such an act. If the cause is not properly addressed, the same thing will happen again.”
“Reflection means finding out the cause. Ha Yul is fully reflecting on himself. I won’t make that mistake again in the future. There is no point in trying to hold back any more than that.”
A nasty air flowed between Elena-nim and Aslan-nim.
“I still don’t understand your educational theory. It is as sweet as candy.”
“yes. I also agree. Coercive education that only whips like you. I have to try to understand, but I cannot understand.”
Mimir smiled at the two of them.
It was fun to see the two of them fighting.
“It remains. It’s still the same.”
I heard that there was a time in the past when the two of us jointly served as instructors.
It must be reminiscent of that time.
“and. As a result, good results have been obtained. That’s it.”
… … good result?
What else do you mean?
“That is also the result theory. Fortunately, Shin Ha-yul’s thoughtless actions yielded good results. There is a big problem with the cause and the process, and it doesn’t change that it is dotted with reflection.”
Miss Elena laughed terribly.
“Is there even a mithril in your head? Why is there no judo-ri like that?”
“So you have whipped cream in your hair? I wonder if seeing the world sweetly is just like that.”
An electric current started to bounce between the eyes of the two.
They were determined eyes that showed a will to never yield.
“both. keep it there I was so excited.”
Then, Mimir intervened between the two.
“What’s important right now isn’t their educational theories.”
Mimir pointed with his index finger at Adela and Soonchan who were lying down.
“The important thing is that there were no major problems, and Adela Stewart and Ji Soon-chan got over the wall, right?”
“… … .”
“… … .”
The two of them closed their mouths and looked at their respective partners.
Soon-chan is still breathing heavily, and Adela’s breathing is stabilizing to some extent.
“excuse me. Sorry for the word. What do you mean you jumped over the wall?”
Looking at the two of them, I let out the doubt I had been harboring for a while.
“I think it has something to do with what you said was a good result earlier… … .”
Earlier, when the two of you were arguing, you said that there was definitely a ‘good result’.
It must have something to do with that word.
“Oh, come to think of it, I haven’t said anything yet. It just means what it says.”
Mimir replied with a nonchalant expression.
“Whatever the reason, the two of them. Didn’t she receive the high-output mana emitted by the radiant magic stone with her bare body? It was a short time, but I managed to endure it to some extent.”
If you said that you endured not passing out, then it is correct that you endured.
“Through that process, the mana adaptability of the two of them evolved at once.”
Mimir’s eyes shone brightly.
A very funny face.
“Should I call it shock therapy? My body changed to survive while enduring the density of mana that exceeded the limit with my bare body. In a word, it crossed the wall.”
“aha.”
There was such a change in the body of the two of them.
“Then the reason the two of them passed out so late… … .”
“huh. The brain temporarily shuts down in line with the changes in the body.”
“Ah, that was it.”
I was just thinking that something was wrong with my body and I passed out.
“… … Again, I thought something big was going on.”
It wasn’t that he fainted because something was wrong with his body, but on the contrary, he passed out because something good was working on his body.
thank god.
“Don’t be complacent just because the results are good. This time it was just luck. There is nothing you did well.”
Aslan-nim glared at me and shouted bitterly.
Even with ten mouths, there was nothing to say.
This is absolutely my mistake.
“But don’t be too intimidated. It’s not like you made a huge mistake.”
After Elana-nim glared at Aslan-nim, she gave me words of comfort.
I didn’t respond to either of them.
I don’t know what to answer.
“… … Elena Law Greenwood.”
“Why are you calling me by your full name all of a sudden? Aslan Polo Hamruin?”
The two glared at each other again and growled.
“I would have said it earlier. Don’t say too much.”
“I never said yes or no. You are being more forceful than necessary.”
And the quarrel started again.
“… … Whew.”
Mimir sighed as he looked at the two of them.
“… … .”
I kept my mouth shut while looking at the three of them, Adela, who was collapsing and out of breath, and Soon-chan, in turn.
‘… … It’s very uncomfortable.’
I felt like I was sitting on a cushion of thorns.
“… … Whew. I don’t know.”
Mimir sighed one last time and turned his gaze to me.
“Heir. Let’s just go.”
“… … Are you going? where?”
“Next area.”
Mimir pointed to the passage located on one side of the Luminous Stone Cave.
Are you going to gather information?
“What about Elena-nim and Aslan-nim?”
“Leave it alone.”
Mimir waved his hands, as if telling them not to bother. He gestured for me to follow him.
“Is it okay if I leave it alone?”
“uh. You don’t have to care. If that’s the case, it’s useless to dry it.”
I looked at Aslan-nim and Elena-nim one last time.
can i really go?
I’m in a scolding position.
“still… … .”
“That’s because it’s okay. I’ll take care of it, so just follow me.”
Mimir pressed his face towards me. It’s okay, so hurry up and follow me.
“hmm. yeah what… … .”
What if you are responsible?
I nodded and followed Mimir.
* * *
Following Mimir, I walked down the aisle.
“Where are you going?”
“To go to the end of the aisle. There is something I want to try out.”
“Do you want to try it?”
“huh.”
Mimir turned around and looked at me.
While facing me, move your body backwards.
It was a possible way to move because Mimir did not have a body.
“To see if we can move on to the next area.”
“Entering Green Castle? right now?”
The site of Halamanium consists of a total of 4 stages.
The first stage is right here, the Bright Magic Stone Cave.
The second stage is the place I just talked about called Nokseong.
“I don’t know if you can enter Noksung right away. I wonder if the current heir will be able to overcome the ordeal of the first stage?”
“You really want me to take on the challenge right now? You haven’t even had training like training yet?”
Wouldn’t it be unreasonable to pass the ordeal already?
“I didn’t even do training like training, but there was no problem even after bathing in the high-density mana of the Bright Magic Stone Cave.”
“… … It is, but.”
Anyway, isn’t it a bit like going straight to an ordeal like this?
“You can’t take it too seriously. It’s not like there’s only one chance to challenge the ordeal. If it doesn’t work this time, you just have to try next time.”
“Is the Halamanium Ruins Test a structure that can be challenged multiple times?”
“ok.”
I thought I could only try once.
From the test in the second half of Idred’s Book to the test in Mimir’s Book.
Because everyone only had one chance. Of course, I thought it would be the same this time.
“Then what… … .”
If you have multiple chances, no problem.
My heavy heart instantly became lighter.
“Just think of it as preparing for the main exam, and you can come and go comfortably.”
“huh. You can eat comfortably.”
Mimir turned again, showing his back to me.
“Then they said that the horns were also thin.”
Beyond Mimir’s legs floating in the air, a uniquely shaped door was visible.
There must be a test room beyond that door.
“Go right away.”
Mimir pointed to the pattern carved into the center of the door.
Gesture to put your hand there.
“I’ll be back.”
I slowly brought my hand there.
Flash-!
As soon as I touched my hand, pure white light flowed from the door.
and right after that.
“I will begin the first trial.”
Unlike before, with Master’s voice that sounds very vivid.
“… … uh?”
Through the pouring light, a man appeared.
As soon as I saw the man’s face, my eyes widened to the size of a lantern.
“The ordeal is very simple.”
A handsome man with blonde hair like the sun.
“Beat me.”
Ray Bell bitenor.
“… … Master?”
Master appeared in front of me.
