76 – I can’t think of a balance sheet – 1

“So? What do you need?”

There are generally two methods used to break the dragon’s curse.

The first is to fight and defeat the cursed dragon.

And the second is to break the medium of the curse.

Most players used to use the first method.

That would be the case because it’s more fun story-wise, and there are a lot of battles, and the rewards are overwhelmingly good.

Of course I did too.

But right now, I’m not interested in such things, so I just choose the easiest and fastest way possible.

“Eh… and.”

I recalled the conditions for clearing the event while tracing my memory. After finding a skilled cleric, you need to get materials from the alchemist guild and go to the wizard guild.

“Even if the alchemist’s guild is like that, why go to the wizard’s guild? Do you need a wizard too?”

“I can use the necessary magic. It’s because I need some ingredients that are only sold there.”

Veronica tilted her head, but followed me without saying anything. After stopping by the Alchemist’s Guild and the Wizard’s Guild and purchasing a lot of necessary materials, I headed straight to the Duchy’s palace.

“It’s definitely a city where magic has developed, so there are many magic items here and there.”

Veronica, who was walking beside me with a large bag, looked around and said,

The principality is a city where magic has developed. As such, they were selling various artifacts, and among them there were quite a lot of things that would be of interest to Veronica, the cardinal of the church.

“Wow. Look at this. It’s called a magic mace.”

“Hmm… You have eyes to see. Speaking of this mace…”

“It’s a mace with lightening magic and magic missile magic. But the durability has weakened a lot because of the forced enchantment. It seems that an apprentice alchemist enchanted it… It looks fine, but you’ll have to repair it if you use it a few times? Most of these are for fakes. It’s at the level of a weapon used as a weapon.”

Mace looks good on the outside, but in reality, it is nothing more than a bright apricot. When I explained the mace I found out with the appraisal skill, the owner broke into a cold sweat.

“That’s… a person in the same industry?”

“It’s similar. Show me something proper instead of this.”

The owner smiled and went inside. After he disappeared, Veronica sighed in relief.

“Wow. If it weren’t for you, I would have just bought it. No, it’s not a stall, are you trying to scam a store?”

“hahaha. It’s hard to see it as a scam. Those things are often used for fakes.”

“Eh. Still.”

“When buying weapons in the principality, it’s good to go with someone who knows about magic, enchantments, and blacksmithing.”

Pouting, Veronica poked me in the side. Although he is an experienced cardinal in his own way, he must have been dissatisfied with being called a wanderer.

“But I watched it. Most of the things in this town are magic arms, so it’s just that it’s a bit unusual. I know the time you used a mace. I don’t think you can’t read things.”

I smiled at Veronica and she poked me in the side with puffy cheeks.

“Hmph. But. Then choose a proper mace.”

“As commanded.”

After a while, the shopkeeper came out with a box of maces.

The silver light flows through and the jewels on the handle side are clean.

Looking at the magic mace made by a skilled alchemist with good materials and a good mace, I shook my head.

There is no mace Veronica can use here.

“No? These are the best maces in our store?”

“But it’s not suitable for priests. I guess this is for warriors?”

“Ummmm… How about this?! My job is available, but…”

“Lightweight magic is a bit weak. And…”

I continued to explain Mace to the level I knew, and gradually people flocked to me.

Originally, there is no such thing as a spectacle that is as fun as a spectacle of slandering others, right?

I stopped talking when the owner’s face started to turn red like a tomato.

“Well. It has these flaws, but it’s a good mace.”

“No! Did you just diss like that?!”

“Then, shall we talk about the advantages?”

I said holding my mace lightly.

“This is a Dwarven Mace. The maker is Marax, the head of the Dwarven City. Are there traces here and here? Proof that he made it. Of course, it’s a work before becoming a meister, but it’s still better than the average mace made by other races, right? The only thing I regret is the enchantment. It would be useful if I could delete the enchantment later and apply another enchantment.”

Not even a weapon handler knew Marax’s name. The best blacksmith in Dwarven City and the leader of the Dwarven blacksmiths.

People’s eyes flashed when he said that it was a work of his youth.

“U-how much is that?”

“Sell me!!”

As people began to cling to each other, the store manager looked at me. I smiled at him and said calmly.

“If you’re entrusting the enchantment, leave it to an expert. If the enchantment was done properly, the price would have doubled.”

“Uh… I can’t stand this. Honey. My partner, man. Let’s say your full name. What’s your name?”

I shrugged at him.

“Sage.”

The shopkeeper’s expression, his eyes widened, was quite worth seeing.

As I was walking out of a crowded store, Veronica gave me a slight push on the shoulder. When I turned around, she was smiling brightly.

Even though she couldn’t buy a mace, Veronica, who seemed somehow proud, smirked and flicked her tongue.

“Didn’t it just look nice?”

“What else is cool?”

“No. No. Overwhelming the store owner and attracting the attention of the people around you at once. Isn’t that amazing? Would it be okay to preach as a priest?”

“Are you asking me to walk the path of a priest? That’s it.”

“Heheeng~ Anyway, I wanted to change the mace.”

“I’ll make one for you when this job is over.”

“Huh? Really? Huhuhu. I’ll look forward to it with a happy heart. Ah. We’re all here…”

Upon arriving at the gate, Veronica stopped for a second. Blink. I closed and opened my big eyes and rubbed them gently.

“Uh. Um. Over there.”

“Why. Because of that armor?”

“Uh… My, as far as I know, the armor of the Knights of the Principality wasn’t that.”

“I heard it changed a while ago.”

“Ah… uh… yes.”

“What? Why are you looking at me like that?”

“Oh? Huh? Isn’t it?! What are you looking at?!”

Restless, Veronica gently grabbed the hem of my robe. Then, as if trying to get my attention for no reason, he started chattering loudly.

“On the side of the fort church…”

“Ah. You know what? Peloian wine…”

“As for the basic steps in writing the surname…”

I laughed at Veronica, who was chattering about Jung-gu heating. I thought I knew why he was doing this.

“Do I look like a person who can be shaken to the extent of bikini armor?”

“Ugh. Originally, delusion is a law that comes noticeably.”

“hahaha. Don’t worry. Friend.”

There are too many things I’ve seen to be shaken by that much.

Of course, I’m a man too, so I can’t help but sneak a glance.

Still, I put in too much effort to shake that much.

“Whew…”

“Ah. Everything is here.”

I arrived at the waiting room of the palace of the principality and went inside. The waiting room that I saw in the game and during the main story was the same as before. Luxurious drawing room with antique sofa and expensive looking table.

Not long after I applied for an audience there, a knight with a familiar face came in.

“Sage. And…”

“Cardinal of the Church. This is Veronica.”

“I see. Your Highness has granted you an audience.”

ruler. So let’s go now

Not long after I followed the knight to the audience room, a slender beauty in an expensive-looking blue dress walked in.

Cecil Claudia. Maybe he was looking at his office, but his eyes looked dark.

“Oh~ friend~ Did you come to keep your promise?”

Then Cecil raised her head and said with a smile,

“…friend?”

Veronica’s voice sank.

Well, that’s not what’s important now.

“I need some time to do the dragon’s curse. Can I take a few days off?”

“Yeah, of course… No, but. It’s a curse on the family. Do I really need to be there?”

“You are going.”

He who ascends to a high place has the responsibility as much as the authority. It is natural that the curse on the family has a great influence on the family head.

Cecile thought for a moment before sighing.

“Then I’m sorry, but I’d like you to give me some time. I’ve got a bit of a mess right now.”

“What?”

“That. Along with the disappearance case…”

“If that’s the case, then Veronica should have been with you. Ah. But you guys know each other, so why don’t you say hello?”

“Mmm.”

“There it is.”

Cecil and Veronica looked a little awkward. The two glanced at each other with embarrassed faces and held out their hands to greet them.

“Kuhmm. That. I don’t think it’s the first time I’ve met… I’ll introduce you again. The wisest! Best friend! It’s Veronica.”

“Huh? Uhh… Um. I’m also a friend of the wise man… Well, by the way, I think I’ve seen it once before. That… In the church when I was a black traitor. I heard you did well?”

“Ummm… well… uh, that’s the way it is.”

what? What about these cute nerds?

They knew each other, but they didn’t have a great relationship, so it seems like they’ve been in the middle of a long time.

The two of them were showing a lot of awkwardness like those who met a friend of a friend.

Everything I see is awkward. really.

It’s almost like it would have been better to meet in public.

Then at least there wouldn’t be such awkwardness.

“Kuhm. Well, anyway. Veronica wanted to solve that problem too. And I’ll help too.”

“Ohhh. So, is it okay if I just apply? Attach articles?”

“It’s good if you stick it on. And I want you to help me control it. Ah. Veronica. In the church…?”

“The priests and paladins will support you.”

If it was a joint operation between the principality and the church, there would be no problem. I recalled their strength and base location from what I saw in the game.

“As they said, let’s do it today. Then take a vacation quickly.”

“Is there something urgent?”

Urgent work? Of course there is.

You must participate in the summer festival and earn achievements.

If I missed it this time, I would have to wait until next year, so there was no time to delay here.

“This and that.”

But I don’t need to tell you here. Cecile also gave a rough nod, as if she wasn’t too curious.

“Then let’s go right away without wasting time.”

It’s nice that it’s hot.

“Do, run away!!”

“The witch of the church!!”

“Who is the witch!!”

-Kwajik!!

Know your home base, know it as a getaway.

In addition, I know the time of the ancestral rites.

With enough support, how difficult would it be to catch a group of xie jiao?

That’s why Veronica stepped up from the front, and I shook my head while supporting her from the back.

Veronica, who destroyed cultists with a solemn, solemn and sincere face and fluttering silver hair, was as strong and beautiful as a god’s warrior in the holy war.

“Hmm. You seem to be quite close with Cardinal Veronica.”

“Because I’ve known you for a long time.”

“Really? But the cardinal’s mace.”

“Well.”

“Doesn’t it look a little old? That’s why I’m saying it. Actually, our research institute is preparing a magic mace too? Comes with an armor and a set.”

Basically, magic knights use magic swords to wear equipment.

And if you do more research there, you can do it with other equipment, but among them, the much later one is the magic mace.

“How about a smashing mage using a mace?”

“…Are you sure that magic and priests go well together?”

It’s not some kind of harem love.

no more than that He really was serious about the bikini armor…

“But will Veronica use it?”

“Ah~ Didn’t you use Leventia too?”

“He’s a bit special.”

I couldn’t exactly figure out why Leventia wore the bikini armor.

Is it an apology to me, or is it really starting to look at efficiency?

He probably knows that improving our relationship isn’t just about changing a piece of armor…

“Ah. It’s over.”

The tidying up was over. Screaming people with broken limbs are dragged along in chains.

Veronica, who took the lead in subduing them, was trudging toward me holding a mace dripping with blood.

“…Thank you. Thanks to you, I was able to find the base quickly. Fortunately, I was able to avoid increasing the number of innocent victims.”

On one side, those who were almost used as sacrifices were coming out under the protection of paladins and magic knights. Veronica, who was staring at them bitterly, smiled faintly and I shrugged.

“With this much. Can’t you do something like this between us?”

“Hmm…”

“What. Why?”

Is it because you said you could make a mace?

Cecil tilted her head at Veronica, who was at a loss for what to do with her delight, and answered my question in an awkward manner.

“No. I think there are more mountains to overcome than I thought. I don’t know if this is a good way to make fun of a kid.”
