My Alter Ego Is Becoming a Giant

imprint (2)

“There, furry. Is this really human?”

The old woman, who had her eyes wide open, pointed at Harley and asked Tulbo.

“Hey, grandma, are you senile? This is for a person! And Harley has gone through a lot of ups and downs during that time, so it’s a real human being!”

Even though he didn’t say it to himself, Tulbo protested with excitement as if biting a bubble.

In Act 4, Scene 3 of the tumultuous ‘Harley’s Adventure’, there was a story about escaping after being captured by the evil warlock ‘Hans’ and undergoing a biological experiment.

He probably cared for him with that in mind.

‘I mean, he is a friend who is attentive to what he looks like.’

Harley, who was moved by the word “monster,” nodded happily with her arms full of thick muscles.

“Hmm… Anyway, are you really human?”

She looked at him again, as if it didn’t matter if the furry was furious or not.

“Hey, I’ve seen a lot of warriors over the years, but this is the first time this has happened.”

“Old man! Please explain what the problem is. I want this because it’s frustrating!”

Then, Harley, who had done nothing to stand still, intervened at the sight of the old woman who burst into admiration again.

“It’s not really a problem. On the contrary, it can be seen that A few days…”

“Ohh?”

“No, the wind outside is colder than that. Come inside and talk. As I get older, my shins are sore.”

Patting her on the back, she got up from her chair and led them into the house.

“By the way, I haven’t even said thank you yet. Thank you for helping me in my troubled car. I’ll bring you some tea, so please sit down.”

As we entered the interior full of various things and sat down to wait, an old woman served tea made with an unknown herb.

“Eat comfortably. Is it good for your body? When you get old, you have to take care of good things. You helped me today, so I’m giving it to you as a way of saying thank you.”

Harley immediately picked up the teacup and poured it into her mouth.

The steaming hot tea did not do any damage to his strong body.

“Hot hahaha! It tastes healthy! Now, then, let me finish the story we talked about earlier!”

“Ahh… the young guy is so quick-tempered.”

The old woman, taking a leisurely sip of tea, spoke slowly.

“Those who are not qualified are aware of the severe side effects of engraving, right?”

“That’s the basics!”

“The engraving basically consumes a lot of body energy. Mana… So, while the proportion of auras used by warriors is large, health is more important than that.”

And she had the ability to see the life force flowing through the subject’s body.

“It was the first time I had this level of vitality, so I was bewildered. I’ve seen Daejeonsa a few times, but I couldn’t compare it to them.”

“Was that Harley? Of course, it was a great level without using an auror…”

“That’s more like a monster than a human. So that’s what I asked earlier. Are you really human?”

The overwhelming vitality emanating from the body of a monster with physical abilities far superior to humans.

It was a natural thing because it was completely contained in Harley’s body.

“As an engraving forcefully draws up the life force flowing through the body and uses it, the richer it is, the stronger the effect can be.”

Since life force is continuously consumed from the moment the engraving is engraved, fiery energy emanating from the warrior’s trained body was essential.

“By the way, it would be enough to engrave a warrior’s imprint, not a warrior’s imprint.”

“Five! But isn’t there a step above that?”

“Hulheul… Although there is a ‘engraving of the King of Fighters’, it seems that no one has engraved it for hundreds of years.”

“Hey, it’s the King of Tuang…”

At the name she really liked, Harley’s eyes flashed.

“Of course I can’t do that either. It is also a task that requires the assistance of several shamans under the leadership of the arch shaman in the first place.”

“I’m sorry, but I can’t help it. So, let’s just engrave Daejeon. I should be able to have that tidy! Ha ha ha—!”

“It’s also a bit difficult.”

“why not!”

Despite Harley’s plea, the old woman slowly drank tea and burned her heartbreak.

“First of all, there is no material. As you know, it’s been a long time since a warrior from the south came here, so I’m not prepared for it at all.”

As I spent many years fixing small bottles, the materials I had right now were only those used there.

“That’s about it, I’m just…”

“And secondly, it takes a reasonable amount of work to engrave the engraving of a great warrior. It’s not just a matter of having a lot of life or mana.”

Apparently, the higher the level of engraving, the more difficult the conditions were.

If you do not do this, the side effects you’ve heard before will eat you up.

Muscle loss, hair loss, aging, loss of energy…

‘no!’

Harley folded her heart gracefully at the fatal side effects of each.

“So what is that necessary karma? Should I even catch a dragon?”

Still, I couldn’t help but feel sorry for her, so I asked her in a stern tone.

“Day after day… I don’t need that much. Let’s see… Yes, the Northern Mountains beyond the Iron Citadel. It would be enough to hunt the ogres, the predators there, alone.”

‘yes?’

“Oh my gosh! Grandma, do you know what kind of monster it is?”

The furry who was listening next to him shouted in shock.

The ogre was close to five meters tall, and it was an apex predator with enormous muscle density and keen senses.

He was also a glutton who had to hunt and eat all day to maintain his body, except for sleeping time.

Even if several high-ranking mercenaries attack at once and take a lot of damage, I wonder if I can catch it, but you catch it alone.

“If you want to challenge Daejeon, you must be able to do that. In fact, this is the minimum standard.”

“Ummm… well, if it’s a Daejeon Warrior, it’s possible, but…”

“And if the hunt is successful, the appendage could be used to engraving an engraving. High-ranking monsters are great materials for using magic.”

The old woman, who finished talking slowly, sips her tea again.

And without a word, Harley rummaged through the subspace magic tools in her arms.

“So, once you get a different imprint and grow up, try slowly…

“Ugh! What are you doing, grandma? Suddenly on someone else’s face… huh?”

He took out the monster attachments.

Large bones, tendons, eyeballs, bottles of blood, etc. evenly distributed by type.

“Uh… this is probably…”

The furry looked at them and Harley alternately with a stupid face.

“Ogre! It’s an ogre appendage! Those are fresh things that haven’t been hunted for a few days!”

And the old woman who recognized it immediately cried out in shock.

As she said, these were very fresh.

It was right after I had just returned from yesterday after going over the Fortress of Steel and hunting.

‘As soon as I arrived, I heard about the shaman and forgot to dispose of it, but that’s good.’

It saved me from the trouble of going back to procuring materials.

“I ask, just in case… is this the one you’ve been hunting alone?”

Did you feel something when you took out the ingredients at this time?

She looked closely at the things Harley had pulled out, and looked at him with a trembling expression, and her eyes twitched.

“Huh… huh-ha-ha-! You’re talking natural, old man! An ogre is nothing to this body! Pahahaha!”

He laughed confidently.

“Then, there’s nothing wrong with engraving the Great Warrior’s engraving with this, right?”

“That… that’s right. I ask you again just in case, but is it true that you caught it by yourself?”

“Of course! I know for sure what the side effects will be, how can I lie about this!”

At his words, the old woman nodded slowly, poured tea from an empty glass, and sip again.

“But grandma. They say that he is a pretty good shaman if he can engrave the engraving of a great warrior, so why are you living like this?”

At that time, the furry haired man who had roughly wiped the tea water on his face asked in a sullen tone.

She paused for a moment as she brought the teacup to her lips, but then took a sip casually and spoke back as if nothing had happened.

“What about here? Can people who are earning enough money and living without each other help each other and live?”

“Are you talking about the humans who didn’t even light their nose when Grandma was being treated?”

“…everyone has their own circumstances, don’t they?”

It was a word with multiple meanings.

As if he didn’t want to say any more, Harley opened her mouth to finish her business quickly.

“So when can I get the engraving? And if possible, I’d like to get other engravings…”

“Ahh… he’s really impatient, he’s the same.”

The old woman, who was biting her tongue, answered while thinking about something.

“First of all, I don’t have anything ready right now, so it will take a day to get the other ingredients and prepare them in advance. Please come back the next day.”

“If you tell me the ingredients, I’ll collect them right away…”

“Uh-huh! There is no such thing as being in such a hurry to be a magician!”

Carefully preparing each one on a timely basis and refining one’s mind was also part of the magic process.

“And half of the cost is upfront. As you can see, we don’t have any, so we can’t even get the ingredients.”

Thanks to the expensive monster accessories and Hubert, who was doing business well, he was in a very affluent situation, so the cost was irrelevant.

“Can I get another engraving at that time? If I could, I would love to do it!”

“After engraving one, it takes about a week for your body to adapt. And during that time, I also have to replenish my stamina. Do you think engraving is easy?”

After finishing all the errands, Harley and Tulbo got up and left the house to meet the old woman again the day after tomorrow.

The way back through the alleyway.

“Ouch! Now, shall we go finish the work we didn’t finish earlier?”

Hearing his cool stretches and spitting words, the furry furrow made a bewildered expression on his face.

“ok? Harley, what did you do before you came here?”

“Ha ha ha! What are you talking about, friend? There’s something we all do together, don’t we?”

Apparently, this friend was a bit forgetful.

Harley slowly explained what they had to do for him.

“Are you guys going to clean up?”

“ok?”

Furry with a fierce expression again.

It seemed that I needed to explain it in more detail.

“In my experience, leaving them alone is bound to cause an accident later! Before that, you have to arrange it in advance!”

Of course, the source of that experience was the popular culture of the clichéd district.

“Is that… is it? In my experience, if you give me this level of fear, it will take care of itself and not even come close.”

“Uh-huh, I’ve lived a better life than I thought, mate?”

From the point of view of a modern person who is pickled with all kinds of provocative content, Tulbo’s words were a very easy response.

Of course, at first he thought that was enough.

Their opponents were only a group of Parakho, and they were famous mercenaries with muscular giants, and they even used “Feral” to imprint fear.

If it’s a little bit, it’ll probably take care of it like a furry horse.

But unexpectedly, the shaman old woman was more capable.

I don’t know how long it will take since the first engraving is two days later, and since then, it has to be engraved every week…

‘That’s enough time to dilute the fear.’

So I needed to be a bit more specific.

“Ohh···. Indeed, you are an indomitable warrior who survived all kinds of adversity. I learned a lot, Harley. So how are they going to find them?”

They had already escaped, so they couldn’t even see their noses, and they didn’t even know their base.

“Heh heh— they must be the people who live in this area anyway, so if you run into each of the people involved, won’t they come out?”

“Right! What if they rather hold a grudge and seek revenge?”

“Then you step on it less! I’m trying to organize this in advance so that it doesn’t happen again! You have to step on it more carefully and thoroughly!”

“Really… that’s great! I’ve never seen a warrior as thorough as you, Harley. You are not only armed, but also intelligent!”

“Well, it’s all a product of experience. Turava, you too can be like this. Wow!”

The two disappear into the alley while having a friendly conversation.

But the content was horrendous.

After so many tunes echoed through the streets until it got dark…

They were able to finish their work neatly and go home with a cool mind.
