Ethan quickly checked the reward upon receiving the notification message that it was a hero-level reward.
The rewards Ethan had received up until now were one level lower than this heroic reward.
‘Even though they were enhanced rewards for perfectly clearing the quest, they would have been close to hero-level rewards, but they were basically lower than hero-level rewards.’
But this was clearly a hero-level reward. In terms of grade, it was a fairly high-grade reward.
‘Besides, this is an enhanced hero-level reward.’
So how great will this reward be?
Ethan couldn’t help but smile.
“Ethan Wickers, I will never forget this. I never dreamed that you would heal my wounds so perfectly.”
Tror approached Ethan.
Completely freed from the stigma of exile, Tror was radiating a much stronger aura than when I first saw him.
It was the energy of the earth that was said to be the most solid among the energies of nature.
“This is my sincerity. I will refuse to accept your offer.”
-You can receive enhanced hero-grade rewards from the earth spirit king, Thror!
[Spirit King’s Hammer S+]
[Spirit King’s Necklace S+]
[Spirit King’s Guardian Stone S+]
There were three S+ grade items.
It was surprising that they gave S+ grade items as rewards, but the really important thing was the last part.
‘no way.’
Ethan’s eyes stopped at the third.
Guardian stone of the Spirit King.
I never thought that this Spirit King’s Guardian Stone would come out as a reward.
Ethan doubted his eyes.
‘You’re giving me a guardian stone?’
Guardian stones were the best items you could get from spirits.
Although the effect was extremely great, the spirits did not want to give this guardian stone easily, so everyone had to go through a lot of trouble to obtain it.
‘Actually, I’ve never gotten anything good either.’
Although I had built good relationships with countless spirits and built trust with them, and had raised my spirit power to a considerable level, obtaining a guardian stone was no easy task.
‘I’ve only ever gotten it once.’
The one I got was a beginner spirit guardian stone. It was the lowest level guardian stone among guardian stones, but most people couldn’t even get this beginner guardian stone.
‘It was quite useful, even though it contained the power of a beginner spirit.’
The guardian stone had that much great value.
So, without hesitation, I chose the guardian stone right away.
-You have received the Spirit King’s Guardian Stone!
A pentagonal yellow gem fell into Ethan’s hand and was absorbed into his body.
Shaaaaah-!
A strong energy was felt from the absorbed gem.
-Trait added!
– Spirit King’s Guardian Stone characteristics have been added!
<
The effect was definitely as expected.
It was an effect that reduced magical damage by a whopping 40 percent.
‘This is crazy.’
The effect was tremendous.
‘Isn’t that mean that even if you get hit with a 9th circle magic, you’ll be weakened by almost half?’
This meant that even if you were hit by a powerful magic such as Hellfire, only 60% of its power would be absorbed.
Even if you just calculate the simple numbers, you can guess how great the Spirit King’s Guardian Stone is.
Ethan smiled happily.
‘It was worth curing him. The hero-level enhancement reward is definitely nice.’
Additionally, the fact that all stats increased by 5 was also a huge effect.
“You kept your promise, so I’ll keep my promise too. And by the way, even if I keep all of that promise, there’s still so much left over. So much so that I’ll have to give you change.”
-Spiritual power increases greatly!
-The reliability of the contract spirit has become 100%.
Reaching 100 percent reliability meant that the spirit would never refuse the contractor’s orders.
‘The amount of spirit power increases also varies depending on the level of trust.’
This meant that as time passed, he could use Tror’s power more actively.
‘Of course, it’s rare to summon Troru directly.’
Ethan intended to make this tror a strong link between Prochesht and Wickus’s domain.
‘Prochesht will never betray, but there is always the ‘what if’.’
Life doesn’t always go the way you want it to. Even things that seem perfect always have flaws.
“If you have any request, please don’t hesitate to ask.”
“Okay, then let’s settle the change little by little.”
Tror is a versatile being. If he comes out with such enthusiasm, it’s good for him.
“Teacher, I really learned a lot.”
Roanna’s eyes sparkled.
“Thank you so much for the intensive study class. I will definitely do my best next semester.”
Roanna also grew rapidly through this quest.
‘Thanks to you, it wasn’t difficult to get here.’
With this level of growth, it was clear that they would show overwhelming performance at the main event of the second semester, the Academy Exchange Festival.
At the same time, other children came to mind.
‘I wonder if the kids are doing well.’
Yuna, Ron, and Mason.
‘The academy exchange program is not easy. With your current skills, you will never win.’
I had to raise my skills to the level Ethan thought I could.
“There’s no need to stay here any longer. Let’s go back to Prochesht right away.”
“Please wait a moment.”
Ethan briefly stopped Trore from opening the door.
“You’ve just been treated, so take a break. Roanna, you must be very tense, so take a break.”
Ethan advised them both to rest, then immediately began using his pulse on his own body.
‘Hwa-ta said that he couldn’t cure the extinction disease in my body. At this point, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to check it out for myself.’
-Use pulse diagnosis.
-I analyzed your constitution.
-Physical constitution: solar
Ethan’s constitution was solar.
‘Maybe we can cure extinction.’
Swish swish-.
Ethan inserted a needle near the heart. Then he immediately used the Hua Tuo Gae Bok treatment technique.
‘this.’
But it was extremely difficult to use it on myself.
While using the Hwa-Tao-Gae-Bok treatment technique, Ethan’s energy kept moving, and since the energy was suppressed with Heo-Ryu acupuncture, it was difficult to move his hands smoothly.
‘That’s not the problem. I can’t feel it at all.’
There was no hint of extinction at all.
‘As expected, it can’t be easily cured.’
He is not called the king of curses for nothing.
‘The more I learn about healing techniques, the more I realize how terrible this extinction is.’
How desperate Ethan would have been if he had not known about this extinction.
‘I’m glad you knew.’
If I had started without knowing anything at all, it would have been more difficult mentally.
‘But I’ve gotten better at using acupuncture and herbal medicine, so I guess I’ll have to be satisfied with that for now.’
If we look closely, doesn’t that mean that diseases or curses that are lower in level than extinction can be cured?
‘Because I removed and restored the mark that the Demon World Grand Duke had put all his strength into.’
Unfortunately, Ethan decided to be satisfied with this for now.
“It’s done. Let’s go back now.”
At Ethan’s words, Trore opened the door immediately.
But then.
Kuguguguguguung-!
A loud noise began to be heard.
“what?”
There’s no way you can hear any loud noises here.
A bewildered Tror looked to the side.
“That’s… … .”
Fear appeared in Tror’s eyes.
Tsk tsk-. Tsk tsk tsk!
The crack that suddenly appeared was breaking apart.
Even its shape was similar to that on Tror’s side.
Ethan was impressed.
‘What? There’s never been an event like this?’
It was an event I had never experienced before.
Kwagagagagang-!
An arm burst out of the crack with a louder roar. Soon, the head and body were completely out of the crack.
“You’ve been hiding for quite some time, Tror.”
What emerged from the torn crack was a giant horned demon.
Tror clicked his tongue.
Why did the Demon King come to me at this time?
“how…….”
As I said that, I realized that this place was currently in turmoil because of Ethan and Roanna.
“Are you saying that you have been waiting for an opportunity… all this time?”
At those words, the Demon Duke, who had completely withdrawn, revealed his teeth and let out a bitter laugh.
“Did you think I’d never find you? That’s why you hid in such a hard-to-reach place. But look, I found you eventually. My eyes were always on you, damn you.”
The Demon King said with a grin. With that grin, another eye opened on his forehead.
Swish-. Swish-. Swish-.
Kwak-kwak-!
The Demon King didn’t come alone. The cracks spread further and black creatures began to appear one by one in the green space.
“……teacher.”
Roanna tried to calm her trembling heart and called Ethan.
However, she was extremely uneasy. The energy emanating from those demons was not something that a student like Roanna could withstand.
“I’m sorry, this is all my fault.”
Tror clicked his tongue. This was a helpless situation.
“I’ll try to do something, so don’t run away… … .”
“It’s too late to run away. All the exits are blocked.”
This is a place close to the spirit world. It is a place where even Ethan’s wind and clouds cannot reach.
At Ethan’s words, Tror sighed.
“It’s not like there’s no way at all.”
Thror was a well-prepared spirit king.
I never thought something this serious would happen, but I still prepared for it to some extent.
“It’s truly unfortunate that this has come to this, not even a day after making the contract, but a human like you could easily make a contract with any other great spirit.”
Tror snapped his fingers, and the magic circle beneath that spot became activated.
“Thank you.”
Ethan saw a magic circle. Perhaps it was the magic circle that Trore had to keep active here.
“teacher.”
“It’s tear-jerking. Did you make any new contractors in the meantime? Don’t worry. I’ll kill them all cleanly.”
As soon as the Demon King gestured, the number of demons began to increase. At first glance, it seemed like there were more than a hundred of them.
“Humans, I will personally make you two my slaves.”
“Go quickly!”
Tror tried to push Ethan into the magic circle. But Ethan slapped Tror’s hand away. Then, he disrupted the magic circle.
“Wh, what are you doing!”
“Troll. From now on, there is only one thing you have to do.”
Ethan turned around.
Ethan was forced to confront the giant demon lord, demons, and living corpses.
The victory or defeat was clear to anyone who saw it.
“No matter what happens, protect Roanna. She must not get even the slightest injury.”
Ethan said.
“That’s fine. The rest… … .”
Shaak-.
As he said that, he drew his sword.
In one hand he held the Frost Sword, and in the other he held the Thunder Sword.
Frost Sword Leah and Thunder Sword Ymir began to resonate.
Frost began to spread across the area centered around Ethan.
Phage, phage, phage!
“I’ll take care of everything.”
