Episode 110:
Dallas stuttered when he saw the tree branch.
“This is a holy object?!”
Dallas, a priest, was naturally able to recognize the sacred relics containing divine energy.
Holy relics were not easy to obtain. This fact can be seen just by looking at the strictly managed holy water in the cathedral. However, each and every branch that X took out of his inventory was a sacred object!
“Where on earth did you get so many holy relics?”
“It goes back quite a bit, so to speak.”
X looked at the tree branch with a happy smile.
-A tree branch with a pure soul (unique)
A tree branch that can burn the soul and create flames.
The sacred flame is maintained semi-permanently.
Special Effect: Holy Flames react with dark energy.
The Tier family’s rock iron mine!
The bare, alive trees that greeted X when he entered the place, thinking it was a dungeon. No matter how many times I used Heavenly Grasp, the only item I could obtain was a twig of unknown purpose.
I was a little disappointed with the unique rating because I only occasionally used it as a substitute for a torch, but the day has come when I can use it so usefully! X continued.
“Please ask me again, Dallas!”
“It’s not that difficult to pray, but…”
Dallas trailed off. If I fail again even with so many holy relics… I had negative thoughts. After all, it is a B+ difficulty quest.
It was natural to be worried about whether you could do it.
But X patted Dallas on the shoulder.
“It doesn’t matter if I fail. Well, to be really honest, it doesn’t matter. Still, shouldn’t we try everything we can right now?”
That way there will be no regrets. Also, it is a way to use your precious time efficiently.
X’s encouragement was enough to boost Dallas’ confidence. Dallas has made a decision.
“Thank you for your trust.”
And then he immediately took the tree branches and headed to the place where he was praying.
Goooooh.
The softly glowing tree branches and holy water created a sacred atmosphere.
“Then shall we just watch quietly?”
“Kyuuuu….”
“Even if this guy is itching, just be patient.”
I wonder what shiny things taste like.
I led Yongyong, who was full of curiosity, and watched Dallas from a distance.
Dallas began to pray with a much more serious expression than before.
Dallas will have made its own decision, so now is the time to trust and wait.
[Heavenly taste has discovered the hidden taste in ‘Spicy Snow Mountain Rabbit Jerky’!]
[Maximum stamina increases by 100 points!]
[Strength increases by 3 points!]
As time passed, Yongyong could not overcome his boredom and fell into a sweet sleep. .
It was while X was preparing ingredients and chewing beef jerky.
“uh?”
X, who glanced towards Dallas to see if he had frozen to death, couldn’t help but be shocked.
Because a dazzling light was emanating from Dallas, a brilliant light contrasting with the polluted rune stone.
Was it successful?
Even if he is a god, does bribery have no business? X got up from his seat and headed towards Dallas.
But even though there was a response, Dallas just stopped and closed his eyes. His face was peaceful, as if he was asleep.
On the contrary, the light grew stronger.
X asked cautiously.
“Dallas, are you okay?”
The answer to the question came from an unexpected place.
-My name is Sacredia.
“!”
-Did you call me?
The shape of a woman slowly revealed in dazzling light!
The woman was so beautiful that it was indescribable. It was beyond beautiful and even brilliant.
Long flowing silver hair. And the strong halo shining from behind the woman seemed to indicate that she was not from this world.
X answered quickly.
“you’re right. My name is X. I needed the help of the goddess, so I asked a colleague to summon the goddess. “Sorry if I was rude!”
-It is absurd to say that she is a goddess. I am just a person from the past. Although it is said that he achieved virtue and stayed in heaven, he is by no means a god.
It was indeed as Siolas said. But what should we call Sacridia, which makes us feel pious just by looking at it? X asked cautiously.
“Then what should I call you…?”
-Sacridia.
“Wouldn’t that be too rude?”
Even if he is not a real god, isn’t he a person revered as a god among priests?
But Sacredia shook her head with a gentle smile. I felt like flattery wouldn’t work on a person like that and it would be better to do as I was told. I guess I’ve sorted out the titles, and X got to the point.
“I understand, Sacredia. The reason I summoned Sacredia is because of the rune stone. “I heard that in order to purify rune stones that have been contaminated by other beings, the power of gods… or rather, good people is needed.”
-I see. Actually, I was guessing. Not long ago, there were people who came to us for help for the same reason as you.
“Maybe he is my teacher.”
It seemed like the heavens had also noticed the activities of other beings.
For a moment, a shadow appeared on Sacredia’s bright face. It was obvious how much she cared about other beings. Soon she opened her mouth.
-There are many people in heaven who do not want to be associated with other beings. Even those who stay in heaven cannot avoid the alien curse of other beings.
“They are truly crazy in many ways.”
Not only can it affect the continental Fate World, but it can also affect the heavenly world! Isn’t this the final boss of a different level the more you think about it? But at the same time, my heart feels warm.
It must be because of the instinctive desire to win when meeting a strong opponent!
X calmed down his pounding heart and spoke.
“But we definitely need the power of good people to avoid repeating the same things that happened in the ancient kingdom. Sacredia, please lend us your strength!”
-It goes without saying. Rather, it is an honor to be of help to you. And I am glad that you have come to see me over these outstanding celestial beings.
Who is Sacridia? She was a goddess who represented sacrifice. Other beings were no problem for her movement.
Grinning. Sacredia smiled and walked toward the contaminated rune stone.
-I, Sacridia, remember your heartbeat.
Sssssssssssssssss.
When she placed her hand on the runestone, the ghostly energy of the other being subsided.
The gloomy energy that had been wriggling like tentacles began to dull and burn away. X’s eyebrows twitched as he watched the scene.
‘What is that light?!’
A runestone that gradually begins to emit its own light!
A different light was shining from the forest of old trees and the rune stones of Mermaid Island.
Brilliant golden light The small shining golden light spreads at high speed.
As light began to spread throughout the runestone, the runes engraved on the runestone also began to reveal themselves.
“and.”
An exclamation of exclamation came out of nowhere.
The rune stone that had been suppressed by other beings began to unleash its own power. A rune stone that explodes its golden light as if a dam had burst. The pouring golden light enveloped the bodies of X and Dallas.
It was then.
Tiroling!
[You have succeeded in the quest!]
[The blessing of the Rune Stone rests upon you!]
[Health regeneration is permanently increased by 300 percent!]
[Mana regeneration is permanently increased by 300 percent!]
“Crazy.”
The blessings of such a runestone, a mysterious stone that supports the world, were enormous. It permanently amplifies your health and mana regeneration by three times! This was an effect that was difficult to obtain even if it was plastered with unique items.
But what was even more surprising was that this was the beginning.
The runestone purification quest was a quest that could be performed repeatedly. What this means is that you can receive this blessing every time you purify a rune stone.
“This is really crazy.”
X can’t help but be shocked with a mesmerized expression! It was Sacredia that brought X to his senses.
She asked, looking at the runestone that was glowing in its own way.
-It looks much better than before. Yes?
“of course. Thank you, Sacredia!”
-No, it’s me who should be thankful.
“yes? “Why?”
When X asked, Sacredia continued.
-X. As you know, unless the conditions are met, Heaven cannot interfere with Fate World at all. Because of that, I couldn’t tell you how heartbroken I was just looking at him.
Even her sad face was beautiful.
-But X, thanks to you calling me, I was able to ease the burden on my heart. If I had one wish… I just hope that our relationship doesn’t end like this.
I hope I can help you a little more.
It was the earnest look of Sacredia.
X answered with a smile.
“I was already thinking of doing that.”
The Fate World is large, there are many rune stones, and the blessings of rune stones that must be received are plentiful. It is natural to borrow the power of Sacredia and other ancestors every time.
Sacredia smiled brightly at X’s words.
-X Thanks to you, I feel like I’m smiling for the first time in a long time. I’d like to talk a little more, but… it’s not a good thing for a celestial person to stay in reality for a long time.
After saying that, Sacredia looked at X and Dallas in turn.
-Is it okay if I give you two a blessing?
“…A blessing?”
-I received so many holy relics as sacrifices, but the purification of the rune stones alone would not be enough to calculate it. Thanks to the many sacrifices, I still have the ability to do things in real life.
Thanks to X’s sacrifice of an enormous amount of holy objects, Sacredia gained considerable power to interfere with reality.
She planned to purify the runestone and use the remaining power to bless X and Dallas.
If that was the case, there was no reason to refuse. X answered happily.
“In that case, please give me a good blessing!”
Sacredia laughed softly at X’s shameless request.
-Hehe, I hope this is a much-needed blessing for you.
Shuoooo.
Soon, Sacredia’s body began to glow and dissipate into light again. Scattered light enveloped the bodies of X and Dallas. The light that stayed for a moment disappeared in an instant.
Tiroling!
[Sacridia’s blessings be upon you!]
‘Is this the end?’
For some reason, unlike the runestone blessing, there was no explanation. Out of curiosity, I opened the status window, but there was no information displayed. Sacredia just disappeared so I couldn’t ask… Curiosity arose, but X shrugged his shoulders.
“Well, what’s good must be good.”
I even asked for a favor, but I guess he gave me a strange blessing.
X, thinking positively, looked toward Dallas. Dallas, who must have come to his senses only after Sacredia disappeared, opened his mouth in shock.
“…X, did I really fall asleep?!”
My body felt light, as if I had had a good night’s sleep. I promised myself that I would do well, but if I dozed off, wouldn’t this be such an inconvenience? X answered Dallas, who was crying.
“Well, you didn’t respond even when I spoke to you, right?”
“That can’t be possible…!!”
I thought I knew why Yongyong was tapping Dallas’ side. Now that I see it, Dallas had a taste for bullying.
X swallowed a chuckle and took out some dishes from his inventory.
“Rather than that, I think I should bring out the secret ingredients I’ve been saving for the self-congratulatory party, right? Let’s see, Hwasan Deodeokju must have aged quite well.”
“Now, a celebration party? Does that mean we succeeded?!”
X gave Dallas a thumbs up.
“Of course it was a complete success.”
Munchkin that I eat all by myself
