Episode 282
Sword of Time (2)
“Dragon Slayer. It is truly an honorable title. “Isn’t this a name that everyone who holds a sword repeats in their mind at least once?”
“Well, you should just repeat it in your mind, it would be embarrassing to say it out loud. Imagine swinging a huge sword and shouting ‘Dragon Slayer!!!’… “Wow.”
“Phew. Puss… … Fuhaha!”
shit.
“Hmm. Everyone stop it. Slayer… … no. It’s somewhat uncomfortable. How long is he going to be like this? “It’s going to be busy, so we need to move on quickly.”
Still, the most perceptive of the dwarves was Jis. He stopped the dwarves at just the right time. Perhaps, he guessed that if he provoked him further, he would change from a dragon slayer to a dwarf slayer.
“… … How did you know?”
“what? Oh, how did we know that? It’s that simple. “We have that guy, right?”
Where Jis pointed with his finger, there was Mikhail, desperately suppressing laughter.
“Do you remember when you first came here? “That was the day we made you a panacea.”
“Oh right.”
At that time, after Mikhail ‘saw the future’, he created the Panacea, saying it was a suitable weapon. Perhaps Mikhail saw a future in which he would fight through <Road> at the time.
In other words, this time too, he was able to come to the conclusion that he had witnessed a future in which he uttered the line, ‘The sword that destroys dragons!’
Jeongdo shouted loudly.
“No, are you some kind of voyeur? Why look at other people’s future!”
“Well, am I still looking into your future? What do you know about the dark man’s future? It’s not a technique worth doing very often because it’s too burdensome to begin with. But that day, strangely enough, I missed him. Don’t you sometimes have that feeling? Ah, for some reason I don’t feel well today. It feels like something is going to happen. Such a feeling. I read the future out of concern for you. I intend to stop it if something really bad happens. however… … Foot.”
“shit.”
Something bad happened. It’s bad for you, but it’s good for other people.
I couldn’t complain about the fact that he did it because he was worried about me, so I just switched to another topic.
“By the way, Mikhail. What exactly is it? “Someone I know says that the ability to manipulate time is exclusive to dragons.”
“uh? Didn’t we tell you? Michael, that guy. “I’m a mix between a dragon and a dwarf.”
“Eh? Really?”
“hey! You bastard! “Why do you speak so carelessly about other people’s family affairs?”
Mikhail jumped up, grabbed Jis by the collar, and shook her. Anyway, the other dwarves were lost in memories as they watched the scene.
“Hey. Now that I think about it, that guy was an outcast when I was young. “We were really young back then.”
“It’s such a unique case. If you pass by and see that thing, you’ll think, ‘That’s a mother lizard.’ “I made fun of him a lot while doing it.”
“It was my daily routine to argue with an angry Mikhail. Ah, I miss those days.”
“I didn’t know it at the time, but now that I think about it, it seems like it was a little too much. “Well, it’s already happened.”
“… … .”
Jeongdo watched the two of them whining, feeling that they were losing their senses due to the Dwarves’ abusive behavior. Neither Mikhail, who grabbed the collar and shook it, nor Jis, who was hit, showed any signs of being offended. It was just a joke.
… … I guess if you live for thousands of years, you won’t even feel that much padding. I thought so and asked the rest of the dwarves.
“Can dwarves and dragons have children?”
“There’s nothing that can’t be done. Of course it is rare.”
“Dragons basically have no desire to reproduce, but are instead greedy for treasure… Occasionally, very occasionally, a dragon with abnormal s*xual desires appears. That’s how dragon harps are usually created.”
“Dragons are the ones closest to nature among all living things. Because of this, they don’t even have a gender, but ironically, they can reproduce with all living things that exist in nature. Usually, they polymorph into that species and give birth to children.”
… … Can breed with all races? What is that? It’s not some kind of meta dream.
“Most half-bloods inherit some of the dragon’s power, so their abilities are far superior to purebloods. In Mikhail’s case, he inherited the ability related to time.”
“Did you ever say that once? Mikhail’s ability is not a skill, but a constitution. “It is something that we cannot learn even if we want to.”
“okay.”
The question has been resolved.
Wait a minute, now that I think about it, I’m retarded, so isn’t it possible to learn related abilities from Mikhail?
After pledging to ask about it later, he revealed his purpose for coming here to the dwarves.
“everyone. “Hey, can you take a look at this thing?”
Jeongdo said so and took out a ring made of pure gold from his inventory. It was the ‘Ring of Nibelungen’ obtained from Fafnir’s rare.
“Hoo. okay. that’s right. Mikhail told me about this too. “The impact of the Slayer Dragon Sword was so strong that I quickly forgot about it.”
“hey! “Stop whining and come here and check this out!”
At Tenku’s words, Jis and Mikhail came to his side. As the two began to look at the ring seriously, as if they had been arguing for some time, Do-do asked them.
“how is it? “Don’t you think you can use it?”
“surely. I think with a little bit of tinkering, you can create something interesting. “I especially get along very well with you.”
“As expected, isn’t it?”
The degree nodded. It wasn’t for nothing that I thought I had to get this as soon as I saw it in Fafnir’s Lair.
The effect of the Nibelungen Ring was very simple but powerful.
<Ring of the Nibelungen>
<In the deep bottom of the Rhine River that runs through Europe, there was gold containing powerful mana. There was a legend that if you made a ring with this gold and wore it, you would gain the power to rule the world, so this ring attracted a lot of blood.
The ring’s creator, Andvari, placed a strong curse on the ring when it was taken away, and its function was subsequently altered. This ring grants power at the cost of pain to the wearer.>
<Effect 1: Whenever the wearer feels pain above a certain level, the wearer’s status is permanently increased. The greater the pain, the higher the value rises.>
<Effect 2: When suffering, a skill may be created with a low probability. There is a lower probability that a talent will be created or the talent’s level will increase. The greater the pain, the higher the probability.>
According to legend, this ring is a magic ring that allows one to become a god who can rule the world.
But when I actually checked, there was no such function. However, the effect itself was enormous.
“You can even get talent. “It’s an incredible treasure.”
Jis said that and stuck out his tongue.
In fact, it is so exceptional that talent is generally impossible to acquire.
<Communication> An act that can only be done by using an irregularity such as: And this Ring of Nibelungen was one of those irregularities.
“But what about pain? That’s ambiguous. “Have you tried any experiments?”
“yes. “Roughly speaking.”

Of course, after getting this ring, I did a lot of experiments. According to the explanation, it would be possible to rise infinitely, so I had to check that.
Of course, the first thing that came to mind when Jeong Do saw the ring was self-harm. But he didn’t go back as he thought.
First of all, your status does not increase through self-harm. And even if you asked someone else to stab you, there was no increase. (When he asked Siegfried to stab him, I could still see his expression as if he were looking at a crazy person.)
“It probably goes up when you get hurt by enemies, but I haven’t been able to confirm.”
That will probably go up. Because he didn’t mean to.
Looking at it this way, it wasn’t a very great item, but Jeong Do had one plan in mind. And Jis also understood that, so he said it was a product that was compatible with the degree.
“I’m thinking of using body collapse.”
“Yes. “It can’t be separated from me now.”
Yes. That was what Jeongdo was aiming for from the beginning.
A pain that can never be shared with the extent to which the lottery is used. The body collapses at a cellular level every time a talent is stabilized.
“I think that might work. “Because it’s not self-harm.”
“Can you change the conditions by touching this? Or make it more effective.”
“It seems difficult to change the conditions. I guess the curse is so deep-rooted and old. “It’s already fixed on the ring.”
It was like that. In fact, since Jeongdo also has the <Curse Removal> skill, he tried to remove the curse first, but failed. This was because it had already become an effect of the item beyond a curse.
“It’s amplification. hmm. for a moment. I think something good will come to mind. Hey, everyone gather around!”
As Jis said that, the rest of the dwarves gathered together and started whispering.
“The debris cleanup is over, right? “I think it would be fun to combine it with that.”
“And if you mix it with that newly acquired sword… .”
“Good, very good! “This will be fun!”
After finishing the meeting, the dwarves approached Jeong Do and spoke.
“good night. Leave it to us. “We make the best products!”
“Because we play games and communities in this world. There are a lot of interesting things to say. Among them, there was one word that touched the hearts of us dwarves.”
“… … “What is that?”
Jisu smiled and said in response to the question.
“Final item.”
* * * * * *
“after. Let’s begin.”
The dwarves sat in a circle around Jeongdo. In the center, Jeong-do was clutching Caliburn.
“Can I do this?”
“Yes, your strength is essential in this work. To be precise, the power of <communication> is needed.”
“According to our research, <communication> is the pinnacle of all ‘harmony’-related talents. The role of bridging the gap between existence. That can be said to be the essence of <communication>. “The greatest talent who can connect anything, whether living or inanimate or a concept.”
“If you borrow the power of that ridiculous talent, you can mix anything. Even if it’s nonsense according to the laws of the universe.”
The dwarves said so and placed the Ring of Nibelungen on Caliburn. And then Mikhail went out and brought back the fragment of the beginning. The purification had already been completed.
“It’s time to use this.”
“It may be possible to raise the talent level, but… … “It’s a bit of a waste to use it so disposablely.”
In fact, Jeong Do was planning to create a new <Miracle of the Beginning> from this fragment of the beginning. For example, something like <Birth>.
But the results showed that it was impossible. The <Fragment of the Beginning> that Jeong Do obtained this time was because its power had already been used too much.
The dwarves said that if the fragment obtained from <Wireless World> was 100, the fragment obtained this time was at the level of 0.01. Therefore, there is no power left to create the miracle of the beginning.
So, I was thinking of just uploading it to another talent, but then the dwarves suggested it.
Let’s mix this with the Caliburn too.
“<The Sword that Manipulates Time>, <The Miraculous Fragment that Can Raise the Level of Talent>, <The Ring of Pain>, and <Communication>.”
“As long as you mix these together well, the final item will naturally emerge. “It’s impossible not to come up.”
“Perhaps because that gentleman named Merlin is a wizard, his sword is too weak. “We will take care of it properly.”
“Look carefully. “This is the miracle that a Grand Meister creates!”
The hands holding Caliburn’s handle overlapped with the hands of other dwarves. And the seven mana’s hands wrapped around the entire Caliburn.
The fragments of the beginning and the Nibelungen ring placed on the blade melted away.
Pot!
The renovation was instantaneous.
Intense golden light filled the dwarves’ room.
Tiring.
<Sword of Time – Caliburn>
<Effect 1: Mana can be used to control the time of an opponent stabbed by Caliburn. Mana consumption increases rapidly in proportion to the size of the target.>
<Effect 2: You can select one of the talents and increase its level by 1 for a certain period of time. The maximum level raised by this effect cannot exceed the level of <Communication>. Currently <Communication Level 4>.>
<Duration time: 2 hours → 24 hours (Duration time has increased significantly due to the effect of the Sword of Time.>
<Cool time 2400 hours → 24 hours (Cool time has been significantly reduced due to the effect of the Sword of Time.>
<Effect 3: Status increases significantly due to body breakdown due to talent level increase. This effect lasts permanently.>
The final item has really been left out.
