chapter 22
Part 22 Enhancing Magical Power
shoot aaa-
A cool wind blows.
Of course, under the zelkova tree in front of the grocery store, it is one of the most popular places. The only people passing by this place are the hunters heading to the tower, and usually all the customers are going to this trusted general store and geothermal forge.
So relaxing and not complicated.
But when I sit there leisurely like this, I sometimes think of it.
‘He’s not my son… … .’
Blood was not mixed.
I raised her for 1 year and provided child support for 2 years. To be honest, I wanted to send child support even after I knew at the end that he wasn’t my biological son.
She didn’t even want to see her, but the child was innocent.
‘I’ll live well on my own.’
Minyoung Kim.
The child’s mother’s family lives well. Raising a child is not difficult. The worry is that the child will be hated.
But you shouldn’t have regrets.
The smiling face of the son should be kept only as a memory. Even if you want to see it, you won’t be able to see it. What he needs is his real mother and real father.
It was then.
rumble.
Dozens of people walked this way from the other side. Ten people in suits and the rest appeared to be hunters.
“Are you from Samhyeon Group?”
As long as Aunt Mi-yeon is there, they won’t go out of their way here, but minor conflicts are bound to arise.
I can’t ask Aunt Miyeon for help every time like yesterday.
‘Even if I don’t consume SP, it should be enough to protect myself.’
while living a social life.
while living the life of an artisan.
As I met countless people in this world, I felt that the blade was closer than the law. Of course, money was closer than that.
I’m not too hung up on money anymore… … . Of course, it’s not that I’m not bound, but I needed it right away.
The price of the healing wand is still skyrocketing, and if you want to, you can make a proper [History] grade and sell it.
The problem is [powerlessness].
‘I can’t even take out the crossbow.’
That’s why you can’t take out a crossbow and tear the scroll, saying you’re really going to kill him.
That was when I was thinking about it.
People from the Samhyeon group rushed past the general store and headed for the tower. A few glanced at Jihoo and passed by.
“It’s okay.”
Jihoo stood up from his seat.
It’s okay because I took a little break.
Even the people in the Samhyeon group are cautious, so there’s nothing to worry about right now. In the meantime, you can upgrade a lot of general store items and promote them properly.
He came into the general store.
“Let’s touch the memorize first.”
Yesterday and today, while upgrading the items in the general store for two days, the level of [Memorize] increased by one.
Besides, as Jihoo’s magic circuit skills improved, [Lower Level] didn’t come out well.
‘That means I can write two.’
one has already been decided.
– Start writing 『Memorize』.
– Do you want to write [Low Magical Enhancement]?
– A total of 1,200 SP is consumed.
If so, it means that 600 SP will be consumed. Looking at [Magic Enhancement] itself, it’s not that expensive, but 600 for [Low Level] is a considerable price.
In addition, when used as a memorize, it is 60 SP.
“save.”
done
After using 1,200 SP, I only had about 1,500 left, but I couldn’t give up.
And I heard a potion.
“… … Hmm. Could it be?”
– Use [Memorize].
– Do you want to apply [Low Magical Strengthening] to [Low Magical Recovery Potion [Healing] (Lv. 02)”?
– Consumes a total of 60 SP.
– Do you want to save?
“okay.”
I wanted to do this.
A small light seeped into the potion.
『Enhanced Lesser Magical Recovery Potion [Magic] (Lv. 03)』
: A total of 120MP is recovered for 5 minutes. Slightly increases magic recovery speed for 30 minutes after taking it.
* [Temporarily Enhance Lesser Magic]
– Magic stat 5 amplification effect for 30 minutes
“and?”
I couldn’t have imagined this.
I knew that my resilience would increase or the speed of recovery would increase. However, raising the stat itself means raising everything, including recovery speed, amount of recovery, and magic attack power.
– Achievements!
.
.
.
Also, several achievements came to mind and 200 SP was supplied.
But that’s not the point.
‘I can raise my ability level itself. No matter how temporary it is and cannot be applied repeatedly, it is [lower], so it only applies to magic stats of 50 or less… … .’
There are many conditions.
However, having a magical ability of 5 is useful enough even with all those conditions removed.
As for the price… … .
‘About 1,500.’
Potions that boost the magic stat itself are rare. As well as the materials, it was because the number of alchemists who could make them was extremely small.
‘With a little modification… … .’
What if you use [Setup Intervention] to subtract magic recovery? Well worth it. If that’s the case, why not buy [Magical Stat Boost Potion] and strengthen it?
But it’s hard to find itself.
there are few in number
‘It’s worth it.’
Jihoo had never thought of changing the use itself until now. After all, it would consume a lot of SP.
‘If you get rid of the magic recovery itself and just go with the magic enhancement itself… … No, if [Recovery] is removed and the duration of the increased magic stat is increased.’
It was possible.
The consumption of SP was very small.
This is because [setting intervention] was already done, and it was to strengthen the setting that intervened while giving a penalty.
the result?
『Magical Enhancement Potion [Magic] (Lv. 03)』
: A potion that enhances magic itself. Both the material and magic used in potion production focused on ‘magic stat amplification’ and ‘retention time’ amplification.
* [Low-mid-class magical power temporarily enhanced]
– Magic stat 6 amplification effect for 60 minutes
“It’s a lower-middle class, so even if I can’t do it, I’ll get more than 4,000.”
40 million won for 60 SP is not that big. Because there are many things that can be done with the same SP.
The problem is this.
[Upper-intermediate magic recovery potion (Lv. 07)].
Thanks to the manual with basic information, [Read] was activated right away. Regardless of the level, it was judged as [appraisal].
『Upper Intermediate Magical Recovery Potion [Recovery] (Lv. 07)』
: Unlike normal magic recovery potions, it is a recovery potion that focuses on magic recovery. In particular, the blood of a twin-headed troll was added.
Basic recovery is 1,000MP for 3 minutes, and magic recovery is increased by 20% for 1 hour.
– [Intermediate Magical Recovery]
– [Amplification of low-to-mid-level magic recovery]
* Producer: Hyeongbae
It’s a simple explanation, but it’s a high-end potion that costs over 100 million won. It has higher recovery rate amplification than other potions.
Certainly, thanks to this aspect, when the grade of the potion rises to ‘intermediate’ or higher, the individual alchemist’s potion is preferred over the large corporation.
“Is this going to happen?”
I got a hint from [Enhanced Magical Power].
‘Enhance the overall quality of magical power.’
And when he obtained the characteristic of [Setting Intervention Authority], stir-fry meat that raises his magic ability, which he did as an experiment.
“… … Strengthen your magic for now.”
try this one
A small amount of SP of 60 was consumed.
『Upper Intermediate Magical Enhancement Potion [Magical/Recovery] (Lv. 07)』
: Magical enhancement potion with unknown power added. Basic recovery is 800MP for 3 minutes, and has an effect of increasing magic recovery by 8% for 1 hour. Also, for 30 minutes, the magical power level increases by 10.
– [Low-mid level magic recovery]
– [Low magic recovery boost]
– [Low magic power enhancement]
* Producer: Hyeongbae
a little sorry
But what if you use [Fusion] here?
no. It is highly likely that it will not have the intended effect.
‘Rather, delete the rest of the options and upload one.’
It consumes less.
As before, there is a penalty.
『Upper Intermediate Magical Strengthening Potion [Magical/Recovery] (Lv. 07)』
: Magical enhancement potion with unknown power added. All magic-related effects permeate the user’s body, and when the magic ability is 60 or less, the magic ability is permanently increased by 3.
– [Intermediate Magical Enhancement (Permanent)]
* Producer: Hyeongbae
“Not bad.”
If you look at the value of the potion objectively, it is certain that it is a tremendous item. No, it should be seen as a [Elixir] that permanently increases magic power by 3, not a potion.
‘If you have 50 magic power, you must be at least a 4-star wizard. It can be seen as the amount of magical power of a typical A-rank hunter.’
Minimum appraised value of 1 billion.
If you meet the owner well at the auction price, more than 3 billion won is enough. The aspirations of the wizards blocked by the wall are beyond imagination.
But it’s a pity.
‘When the ability value is 20 or less, 50 SP is consumed, and when the ability value is 30 or less, it seems to cost about 200.’
The level of [Setting Intervention] rises, and it depends on how you raise it.
“Yes, it is more greedy.”
this is adequate
I don’t know if there is a higher level potion. Jihoo’s ability wasn’t enough to add something here.
“save.”
– A total of 200 SP is consumed.
– Saved.
– Achievement achieved!
– [The potion is the magic mass itself (rare)]
– [Those who have increased their abilities (rare)]
– [Finally a human who knows how to use sacrifices (rare)]
.
.
.
– Got a total of 560 SP!
“… … It is a sacrifice.”
The achievement description is strangely unpleasant, but the hint is good. We need to do more use of this kind.
Jihoo got up from his seat.
* * *
No special reason.
There were times when even Jihoo didn’t want to go into the cave and see the light. At that time, one of the people who held my hand was Hyeong-bae.
so it came
to pay off the debt.
“… … How the hell did you do this?”
Hyeong-bae looked closely as if the potion would touch his cornea. Artifact I looked through it with a magnifying glass, sniffed it, and tore a few scrolls to check.
However, the lid could not be opened.
The most important thing in potion storage is sealing. The same goes for any potion. Therefore, it is almost impossible to strengthen or remodel after completion.
“I used my characteristics. You can enhance and modify the artifact.”
“That also applies to potions?”
“Can you say it’s a bit similar to your characteristics?”
“… … It’s different, this is impossible.”
[weakness transition].
It is a characteristic specialized for alchemy.
Ordinary alchemists have to purify certain herbs through dozens of treatments to extract the desired medicine. This is one of the most difficult processes when making potions.
However, [Weakness Transition] omits that process. You can pick up a certain herb and take out the ‘weakness’ as ‘intangible’.
Being able to add it at any time during the manufacturing process is one of the traits that every alchemist so desires.
“No, just add something. Still, this… … . It makes no sense.”
“Because it is a characteristic.”
In this era, the cheat key is this word.
It convinces of any [miracles].
“How much is this?”
“huh?”
“This potion. How much?”
“It’s yours.”
“You strengthen. No, you remodeled it. Call the amount you want minus the cost. I will live.”
wanted this
Hyungbae’s empty eyes began to fill with something. It could be a fleeting curiosity or a fleeting passion.
But that was enough.
“Just take it. about one a week. Let me remodel it like this and sell it.”
“… … You can do it for a price.”
“If you don’t pay up to 5 potions in the future, it will be the same, right? Because next time I’ll focus on [advanced].”
Hyungbae looked at Jihoo.
Jihoo still remembers it clearly. Hyungbae’s sparkling eyes and lively voice. The first day he came to this street with his sister is also vivid.
“okay. then i will get it If I can make it consistently, I’ll put your name on it too.”
Jihoo nodded.
It doesn’t matter much, but if you do, there’s nothing wrong with it. SP can be accumulated just by being known by this name.
Jihoo left Hyungbae, who started focusing on potions, and came out.
Actually, this was not the purpose.
There is one thing I kept thinking about.
‘What I really wanted to do was… … .’
Jihoo opened the status window.
How about using it directly here?
[It strengthens the magical power itself.]
It is such a charming sentence.
