Episode 134
Spot (4)
“Just want to show you?”
Arthur couldn’t understand what he was saying, so he asked back, but then nodded as if it didn’t matter.
“okay. Anything is fine! “I’m not going to show you, but I will rent it for a long period of time to appease you, so please ask!”
“Received.”
Do-do sat down next to Merlin, who was lying on the bed, and activated a skill towards her.
<Skill <Curse Purification> is activated. The amount of mana consumed by this skill increases in proportion to the level of the curse.>
Mana consumption increases in proportion to the curse level.
The words made me a little anxious, but I took a deep breath and used the skill right away.
And right after that.
To some extent, I could feel the sensation of mana leaving my body in an instant. Jeongdo let out a short moan without realizing it.
“Tsk!”
Mana consumption was much worse than expected. In an instant, about half of the mana was gone.
‘I thought it would be easy to disable Galahad’s skill.’
Who is Galahad?
When it comes to curses, he is a knight of the round table who is superior to anyone else. The fact that it could not be easily lifted even with his abilities meant that it was a terrible curse.
The round table is an enviable seat that every knight wants to sit at. However, that did not mean that all seats at the round table were like that. There was a seat that no knight of the round table was willing to sit in.
It is the thirteenth seat at the round table.
All the knights of the Round Table who sat here met a miserable end. Therefore, the thirteenth seat at the round table was always vacant and became a position that all knights looked down on.
However, as time passed, there was a knight who sat proudly in that cursed seat, and that was Galahad. As soon as Galahad sat down, the curse of the thirteenth position disappeared as if washed away. In addition, the shield of the cross that Jeong Do had implemented in the battle with Lyoel was also an item that had a strong curse on it until Galahad used it. As expected, Galahad purified the curse.
‘That’s incredible.’
To some extent, I thought that the Earth Angel named Lyoel might be more dangerous than I thought. He was still being sucked out of mana in real time. Jeongdo shouted urgently.
“Mana potion! hurry!”
“Now, just a moment!”
After saying that, Arthur headed to the next room. As this was Merlin’s resting place, it was stocked with everything that could be good for the body, and among them was a precious potion that instantly restored mana. Arthur hurriedly grabbed several bottles of potion and handed them out to Jeongdo.
“ruler! I brought everything I had. It’s such a rare item that even our guild only has a few bottles… “Is this enough?”
“I hope it’s enough.”
Well, if you don’t have enough, you can just use the ‘Elf Tears’ you have, so there won’t be any unfortunate incidents where you can’t purify.
Pong.
With one hand towards Merlin, he took the potion with the other hand and opened the cap. And he poured it into his mouth in one go. Jeongdo frowned at the unusual taste.
‘It’s so damn tasteless.’
It tasted so strange that it would be a shame to compare it to elf tears. However, the effect was evident as the mana filled up quickly.
‘It’s not enough.’
Mana was recovered, but unlike elf tears, it did not completely restore mana. The elixir that Arthur presented was clearly inferior to the elf’s tears in both taste and effectiveness. Seeing such items being kept as precious in the Round Table guild made me realize how precious elf tears are.
Pong.
Jeongdo checked his mana, which was draining quickly, and took another bottle. And only then did the result he wanted appear.
Paaaat!
A pure white light emanated from Merlin’s chest. A notification window appeared in front of Jeongdo’s eyes.
<The curse of the Earth Angel has been completely lifted.>
<The mana energy used to purify the curse has a positive effect on both the caster and the caster.>
<Elena Heinborg’s mana sensitivity increases by 5.>
<The user’s mana sensitivity increases by 10.>
“oh?”
What is this unexpected reward?
I couldn’t tell if it was a reward for using the skill intensively or if it was just a reward for removing the curse with <Curse Purification>, but it was a nice income. The moment Do-do was about to happily check Merlin’s condition, multiple notification windows began to appear in front of him.
<The additional effect of skill <Curse Purification> is activated.>
<If you successfully purify a curse with the skill <Curse Purification>, you will be able to track the caster of the curse.>
<Talent <Communication> checks the skill <Dungeon Map>. From now on, curse casters will be displayed on the dungeon map.>
Muong.
Jeong Do was surprised for a moment when he saw the notification window in the air, but then nodded in understanding.
‘no wonder. <Curse Purification> has a narrower space than the level 2 shield technique.’
There was a reason for this. <Curse Purification> was a much more successful skill than Jeong Do thought.
A function to track the curse caster. It was exactly the skill I needed right now.
The degree immediately activated the tracking function of <Curse Purification>.
<Curse Caster: Earth Angel Lyoel (Dead)>
His expression froze.
“… Dead?”
why? Surely he escaped successfully?
Could it be that, after successfully escaping, he was unable to overcome the collapse of his body and simply disappeared? If so, that was fortunate. But if not…
‘It means that someone killed him.’
It’s only been a little over a day since Lyoel ran away. Did someone find Lyoel during that brief period of time? Honestly, that seemed unlikely.
No, even if you found it, it’s a problem.
Is there anyone on Earth worth killing? No matter how much it is weakened by forcibly releasing the Precious Blood, it is still a monster that exceeds level 300. Normally, he would have been killed by Laoel. Even if it is an SS level user.
The expression on Jeongdo’s face became serious. Arthur and the saintess, who were anxious next to them, also became serious. Of course, they thought that the treatment did not work well.
‘I can think of three things.’
first. An entity from outside Earth killed Lyoel.

There is a possibility that a being from another universe came to Earth and killed Lyoel, just as heaven came to Earth this time. It looks like the Demon World and the Heavenly World are at loggerheads. Could it be that someone from the Demon World dealt with Lyoel? If this were the case, they would have to go looking for the outside race that killed Lioel again.
second. The entity inside the Earth defeated Lyoel.
Honestly, it seemed less likely than the first time. Aside from himself, the user known to be the most powerful in the world is SS level. They could never defeat Lyoel. But even apart from them, there were strong men in hiding.
For example, Realize, and…
‘Karma.’
A group of fanatics who commit terrorist acts in the shadows. Their information is completely hidden. In particular, there is no information about the person called the cult leader. Maybe he was a powerful person who surpassed even the SS class. I think the possibility is low, but I kept it in mind for now.
And the third and final one.
A person who cannot even figure out whether he exists outside or inside the Earth. Another primordial miracle that even Winry said she couldn’t sense.
‘veil.’
I don’t know for what purpose he or she was there, but it was clear that he or she was on Earth. Could it be that an unknown variable may have intervened in this incident? He gave an impression as if it was a pain in the ass.
“Why, what’s wrong? Triple S. “Is something really wrong?”
Every time Jeong-do’s expression hardened, Arthur, whose expression also hardened, could not hold back any longer and asked Jeong-do. It was only then that he realized what he was doing.
“Oh, it’s okay. “The treatment was completed successfully.”
“Hmm.”
And as if those words were a signal, Merlin’s eyelids, who were lying on the hospital bed, began to flutter. Merlin gently opened her eyes as she heard a faint moan.
After being in a deep sleep for about a week, the first thing she saw when she opened her eyes was.
“Uh-huh. Big. Black. thank god. thank god!”
It was Arthur running towards him with a face marred by tears.
* * * * * *
“I understand the story.”
Lynn was a very intelligent woman. Even after briefly hearing what had happened so far, she grasped the situation in an instant. She bowed her head towards her saint.
“glass. It’s been a while since I last saw you, and I’m really sorry. “The idiot in our family has caused trouble.”
“are you okay. Merlin. “I don’t care.”
“no. This cannot be allowed to go on like this. “Once the situation is over, we will definitely apologize and compensate at the guild level.”
After saying that, Merlin bowed his head towards Jeongdo this time.
“nice to see you. Triple S. “Thank you so much for saving my life.”
“I’m glad you woke up safely.”
Fortunately, there were no aftereffects. She said she felt refreshed, as if she had had a deep sleep, and immediately tried to get up from her seat, but of course Arthur stopped her. Jeongdo also didn’t think that was a good idea, so I advised her to rest, and she forced herself to sit on the bed.
The degree asked her.
“What do you plan to do now?”
“We have to close it.”
I was impressed by her immediate response. She was also an intelligent woman. She accurately grasped the core of this incident. But Arthur asked her if she did not understand what Merlin said.
“Closing it? what?”
“Of course it’s a spot. It all started there. There, a being calling himself Jesus appeared, put me to sleep, and then brainwashed the guild members. He got it wrong from the beginning. Spots weren’t something humans could manage. “It needs to be closed now.”
“hmm. Merlin? Would the country allow that? “The profits from the monsters that come out there are enormous.”
“… Since they did not experience it themselves, they would naturally oppose it. But this time, if it weren’t for Triple S’s help, the country wouldn’t have ended up in ruin. “Such situations must be prevented.”
“Then we’ll have to do it secretly. But how do you close that spot? “The spot area hasn’t even been fully explored yet.”
“You can ask the person who has actually closed it.”
With those words, everyone’s eyes in the room turned to Jeong Do. Jeongdo nodded his head calmly.
“All right. “By the way, there is something I need to check at that spot, so I will accompany you.”
Although it was confirmed that Lyoel had died, it was clear that an Elyos had appeared in a spot in England. Maybe I would get an unexpected clue there.
“Thank you so much. Triple S. “I will repay you with my life.”
* * * * * *
Jeongdo, Arthur, and the saint went deep into the spot. As the work was kept secret from the government, other guild members did not accompany it.
As Jeongdo moved through the forest, he touched the sheath of the sword in his chest. In return for treating Merlin, he had borrowed the sheath for a few days.
‘That’s awesome.’
The effect of Excalibur’s scabbard was very good.
Complete immunity to the status abnormality ‘bleeding’.
Slowly heals the owner’s wounds.
Immune to mental magic below legendary level.
According to legend, Merlin asked King Arthur, ‘Which do you like better, the sword or the scabbard?’ King Arthur replied, ‘Of course the sword!’ and was scolded by Merlin.
King Arthur’s scabbard was a treasure comparable to Excalibur, so much so that Merlin taught King Arthur, ‘A king should value the scabbard that protects his sword more.’
To this extent, the sheath was sufficiently analyzed. After obtaining <Production-lv.3>, the structure of things became clearer. Now, if he wanted to, he could implement the sword sheath even with the King of All Diseases, but Jeong-do had not returned the sword sheath yet.
The reason is, of course, because it is chosen.
‘This is a guaranteed ticket to King Arthur.’
After loading King Arthur, you must succeed in strengthening it! Didn’t you get an Ex-level ticket as a reward for successfully strengthening your White level in the last Dwarf Dungeon? Do-do’s mind was already filled with reinforcement rewards.
‘Come out quickly.’
I heard from Tinia that in order to close Spot, it is necessary to defeat Spot’s guardian. Of course it is a powerful being. Jeongdo was searching with his eyes flashing with the intention of drawing a draw if he encountered the guardian.
And I was able to find it soon.
A huge bear.
No, the expression “bear” was not appropriate either. What kind of bear in the world can grow over 10 meters?
The mana it spewed out was unusual. It was a monster of at least SS level or higher. I could feel Arthur and the saint tensing next to me.
Jeong Do immediately loaded the wire and used <Drawing Bond>. Of course, he was holding the sheath of Excalibur in one hand.
Faaat.
And the result, as expected, was that a black business card fell on my forehead. The black business card was absorbed into Jeongdo’s mind.
<Oh. It is the land of my hometown.>
A high-pitched voice whose gender could not be guessed resonated in Do-do’s head.
