Episode 113:
I thought they were just siblings who had a bad relationship with Ban Seo-hu, but it seems like there was more to it than that.
I asked the question cautiously.
“Are you on bad terms with your family?”
“I’ll just say three words. “Jipseongchon.”
And Ban Seo-jin pointed to his flashy chicken crested head.
“holiday. “Disown.”
It seems to mean that he went home with that head on during the holidays and was disowned.
Even without hearing the details, it felt like a drama was unfolding.
I also understand why you dislike Ban Seo-hu, who seems quite stubborn.
“And this is the eldest son. If you marry this person, you have to hold about 200 ancestral rites a year. “It’s like working at a Korean restaurant without pay.”
I don’t have any special romantic feelings towards Ban Seo-hoo, but I dislike him a little.
This is a physiological repulsion that is imprinted in our instincts.
Taking advantage of that opportunity, Seo Ji-han quickly intervened.
– As I said before, I have no family.
He said very triumphantly.
I don’t think it’s something to be proud of.
Now that I think about it, why is there no Seo Ji-han’s family?
I want to ask, but I can’t because it’s such a sensitive topic.
I’ll be able to hear it someday when I get the chance.
“Ban Seo-jin.”
Seohu Ban, who had been quietly watching this entire conversation, finally opened his mouth.
The low, angry voice made me nervous without realizing it, but Ban Seo-jin remained steadfast.
“Banschesen〜”
“Stop it.”
“I’m a dog~”
Ban Seo-hu, who was about to say something more, bit his lip.
His lower jaw trembles.
On the other hand, Ban Seo-jin was busy laughing and teasing him.
I understand after seeing this.
The two are brother and sister. They are definitely brother and sister.
“I’ll apologize, put your hands together. I have to apologize for having an older brother who, even at this age, still thinks I’m cool and scary when he speaks down. It’s really hard. after.”
I couldn’t do this or that and just nodded my head.
Then Ban Seo-jin suddenly opened his mouth with sparkling eyes.
“In that sense, can I live here?”
“yes?”
“Because I have nowhere to go.”
It’s not like there’s really no place to go.
In the end, she is in a similar situation to me.
Just like I can’t go back to the penthouse in Seoul’s yolk land.
So did she.
When I think about it like that, a feeling of sympathy arises. I felt pity for her.
I was about to accept it right away, but Seo Ji-han shouted urgently.
– no!
“Ban Seo-jin wait a minute…”
Ban Seo-hu also pursed his lips as if he wanted to say something.
After all, since Ban Seo-hu is the head of the guild, he would naturally have a safety house or two where Ban Seo-jin could stay.
As a stubborn person, he is a younger sister . You wouldn’t like the idea of leaving this intact family to live in a stranger’s house.
“I won’t stay for long. I’m just going to use it as a base. And someday, if you evacuate your family here, I can protect them.”
Ban Seo-jin grinned at me, not caring whether Seo-hu Ban objected or not.
– Moya, think about it carefully. It’s really inconvenient to stay with a stranger…
Seo Ji-han was in such a hurry that he got up and came out. I got in between Ban Seo-jin.
Even though there was a table, Seo Ji-han’s translucent upper body popped up on the table because he didn’t block the table.
I glanced at Ban Seo-hu, who was still choosing his words, and nodded.
“Okay. ”
When I clearly accepted despite his persuasion, Seo Ji-han lowered her head with a vain look on her face.
Although Ban Seo-jin has a bit of an extreme side, my impression of her has greatly improved after this conversation.
She is here . If she stays, Ban Seo-hu will act more actively.
Moreover, if Ban Seo-jin really protects our family, that is a big advantage.
In many ways, there are only good things about her staying, but why does Seo Ji-han hate it so much?
In the first place, he hates hunters. Because I don’t like it very much.
“Ha.”
Seo-hoo Ban sighed heavily and fell into thought for a moment.
As if sensing something ominous, Seo Ji-han muttered nervously.
– You can’t say that this bastard lives here too, right?
But fortunately, Seo-hu Ban had no intention of staying here. As if there was no one there, he said goodbye lightly:
“I’ll just leave. I have work to do.”
“to do?”
Eundam Yoo raised his eyebrows curiously,
“I’m going to meet some hunters I know personally and see if there’s anyone who might turn this way.”
It’s a good idea.
We were too few in number.
Each individual’s combat ability is excellent, but we are overwhelmingly short of the number of people to handle all the many things that will happen in the future.
Yu Eundam nodded as if he agreed with the idea and stood up.
“I know people too. “I’ll see.”
Everyone seemed to be sharing their thoughts on what to do next.
I also nodded calmly.
“Then, I will wait and go to the dungeon as much as I can.”
The atmosphere stiffened for a moment at my words.
Why?
The two men froze in shock for a moment and looked at me.
When they got to Ban Seo-jin, their expressions were as if they had heard something absurd.
“Unless I’m crazy, he naturally said he would go out and catch the dungeon boss alone. “I think so.”
Really?
Did I say that like Seo Ji-han?
I think there was a problem with my tone.
I didn’t mean to hunt boss monsters. I meant to engage in diplomacy, not war.
Of course, if things go wrong, we can fight.
I’m assuming that case as well.
I felt it during the last Vargis Dungeon, but the boss monster whose strategy was fully researched wasn’t difficult to catch if you got the compatibility right.
Moreover, I’m not alone.
Now, the sergeant that can materialize will be with me, so the boss monster It wouldn’t be difficult to fight.
But my goal was not combat.
I quickly tried to correct the misunderstanding, but Yu Eun-dam and Ban Seo-hu calmly nodded.
“If you’re my sister, you can do anything.”
“Okay, then please.”
Ban Seo-jin was confused by the calm reaction of the two men.
It is only natural that she knows of my fighting ability only from the time I was with Baek Dae-man.
“Is he that strong?”
What came back to Ban Seo-jin’s question was a nod as if it was natural.
Thanks to this, after the two men left, I had to be harassed for a while by Ban Seo-jin, who wanted to see how strong I was and wanted to fight me.
* * *
Three days have already passed since the day Ban Seo-jin was rescued.
In the meantime, I prepared my dungeon strategy step by step with the help of Seo Ji-han’s information and advice.
I wanted to rush into the dungeon right away, but it was impossible to kill the boss monster with my current combat power.
Even if you increase your magic power with an S-class ability increase potion, the aftereffects are too strong and the potion’s duration is too short.
You may be able to land one hit, but if that one hit is blocked, it’s over.
Above all, Seo Ji-han was vehemently opposed.
In the end, I was gradually increasing my magical power every day with the permanent increase option of the S-class stat increase potion.
You can consume up to two potions per day.
This is to avoid potion poisoning that occurs when you take the third dose.
The magical power that one potion permanently increases is 5.
If you drink three potions a day, you can permanently increase your magical power by 15 per day, but you will remain addicted to the potion the entire time.
You can’t prepare when something happens.
If you drink up to two, the magical power that can be permanently increased is limited to 10.
However, no matter what happens, you can avoid the crisis by drinking the third S-class potion for a temporary increase.
As an aside.
When I said, ‘I can only raise 10, but I need to eat it regularly,’ Seo Ji-han stared at me with an expression that seemed at a loss for words for a moment.
– Although…?
Then he looked up at the sky for a moment, took a deep breath, managed to make a kind expression, and then asked me a serious question.
‘Do you know what you’re talking about?’
As Seo Ji-han’s lips trembled, I immediately reflected on my mistake.
Magic power increases by 10 per day.
In the past two days after my potion addiction ended, I drank a total of four bottles of potion and increased my magic power by 20.
Combined with the 25 magical power I gained from the Kyrgyz Horn and the 15 I gained from the three bottles of magic potion I drank before going to Dokdo, my current basic magical power is 60.
Adding the 20 from the moonstone bracelet adds up to 80.
Currently, the magic power is less than 100, but if you continue to eat like this for a month, your magic power will increase by another 300.
Of course, seeing as there is an option to mention the limit, there seems to be a limit to the number that can be increased with potions.
Still, it was unconventional.
All you need is a little time.
To be honest, I wondered if it was possible to become strong so easily like this without any training.
But Seo Ji-han dismissed my doubts.
– Where and how many years have other awakened people trained and become stronger? In the end, it’s all luck. Enjoy.
that’s right.
That’s right.
Some people say that if you put in enough effort, you can achieve anything.
However, luck determines whether the environment is suitable for making enough efforts.
“that’s right. “I was lucky.”
– okay. I was lucky. But that’s not all.
“What do you mean?”
– Opportunity is determined by luck, but things are different after that.
As I looked at him quietly, Seo Ji-han shrugged his shoulders and added.
– Those idiots who set out to conquer Vargis Dungeon with you. If you were like those idiots, would I have given you advice?
Seo Ji-han briefly shook his head in denial.
– No, if it had been them, they wouldn’t have picked up my body for a funeral in the first place. And while showing off my abilities, I recklessly jumped into the second dungeon and died.
Or maybe they were captured as gathering slaves.
I didn’t bother to say what was in my head.
– I believe that everything you have is the result of your prudence. Well, I have nothing to say if I tell you that the reason you have such a personality is thanks to the environment created by luck.
Seo Ji-han, who said that, was looking at me with a very gentle face.
He wanted to cheer me up. I decided to gratefully accept that sentiment.
