chapter 43
43 – Phoenix.
A thrill ran down my spine at the unexpected reward.
Who would have imagined that a sub-quest would give such an enormous reward.
‘No. Does the reward belong to the ordinary side?’
Elixir supplement.
This is just an ordinary elixir.
Unlike the golden apple I ate before, shouldn’t that be taken once a day like medicine for several days?
‘And it doesn’t go up at once like a golden apple.’
In the case of experience, to be honest, it was given every time you did a quest.
Thinking of that, this is no different than usual.
It’s just that thanks to leveling up this time, the summons of my followers were given, so it seemed like a huge number.
Therefore.
‘Give me more rewards right now!’
I shamelessly told him to pay compensation, but unfortunately the system message was silent.
‘Hmm. Anyway, now I think I’ve got a follower summon. I’ll have to sign a contract with the phoenix.’
And if you make a contract, you’ll need a magic recovery bracelet as well.
The more you grow, the more things you have to do.
At this point, even 10 bodies feel insufficient.
‘Why are you so busy even after coming to another world?’
That was the time when I was thinking about it.
“Keuuugh!”
Kiesa, who had been defeated by me, glared at me with her eyes wide open.
It seems that he hasn’t been hit yet, he hasn’t come to his senses yet.
“Kill it!”
At that moment, the guy radiates magic power and attacks without hesitation.
I was expelled anyway, so I just left properly, probably because I had nothing to lose.
That’s when I tried to deal with it.
“Keah!”
A woman with pure white hair appears between us and subdues Kiesa at once.
Just by looking at her back, she has a completely different aura from normal students.
Even in the game, he is a character that is equivalent to the leading role and is called the strongest in the academy.
-Hoho, out of all the people you’ve ever seen, you seem to be the strongest?
Even El Miro is evaluating her as she sees her woman in front of her eyes.
‘I didn’t know that Elza would intervene.’
A person called the current academy student council president.
She is none other than Elza von Liones.
I quietly looked at her with her mind’s eye.
Status window.
Lv. 75.
Occupation: Spearman.
Possessed characteristics.
Shin Chang-hap (★★★★)
Strengthening the body (★★★★)
The talent you possess.
Spear Lv. 7
Physical Ability Lv. 7
It is overwhelming enough to make me wonder if this is really a stat that a student can have.
Certainly, it must be at this level to be called the former student council president.
‘Well, even our kids aren’t inferior to Elsa in their potential.’
When I thought about that for a while.
“Are you okay?”
Elza turns her head with her aloof face and asks her question.
I slowly shook her head at her question.
“It’s okay. Rather than that, is it okay to blow that person away?”
“Yes, it was not enough to lose in a fair duel, so he even took out his sword and tried to kill the student. This is a matter of course.”
At her question, she nodded her head with her face as if she were natural.
At that time.
“Awesome!”
Kiesa stands up with blood on her forehead.
At the same time.
“Let’s go there.”
Dale, who had been watching, appears in front of him.
Kiesa bit her lower lip at his appearance.
I’m sure he knows.
If I go further than this now, I will really die.
“Okay.”
With those words, he leaves the arena.
So only me, Elsa, and Dale were left in the arena.
Elsa turned his head and bowed his head down.
“Sorry. The desired student.”
“Uh, yes?”
At her sudden apology, Baran made a stupid expression without even realizing it.
I didn’t even think that she would bow her head and apologize like this all of a sudden.
“This is what Kiesa did.”
“Ah.”
“I didn’t know that she would bully her juniors like that as soon as she came back from the dispatch. I’ve heard rumors that his personality isn’t that good, though.”
Well, to be honest, it was natural for Elsa to react that way.
To put it bluntly, who would have expected that an academy that values equality would be able to catch the poop army.
‘I saw how dumbfounded I was.’
Since it is not a game but a reality, does this kind of situation happen?
After I questioned that for a moment, she opened her mouth in a serious voice.
“Can I ask you for one thing you wished for?”
“Are you talking to me?”
“Yes.”
“I don’t know if a person like me is possible, but I will help as long as I can.”
She listened to him and thanked her once again.
Then, she gets straight to the point.
“Could you accept our student council request?”
“How about a request?”
There is a request that roughly predicts the price to some extent.
Isn’t there a request from the student council, one of the sub-episode, just at this time?
Let’s look at it as if I’m asking what kind of request it is, and she answers her question.
“First of all, since there are too many listeners to talk about here, could you come to the student council room with Luden students tomorrow afternoon?”
“Hmm.”
As expected, what Elsa asked me for was none other than the original episode.
If it were me in the past, I would have refused without hesitation.
However, now it is necessary to be directly involved in the original work.
Because you don’t know how it will change with the butterfly effect.
‘And you have to be involved in the original work to be rewarded generously.’
After organizing my thoughts, I nodded.
“Okay. Let it be.”
After her words, she disappeared from the arena.
So the confrontation with Kiesa ended with my victory as expected.
***
The next day.
I didn’t go to the lecture room this morning because it was none other than a blank lecture.
So, without hesitation, I tried to quickly summon my followers in the training room.
By the way.
– Disciple. If you intend to summon your followers, you must prepare properly.
Seeing my actions like that, Miro El nags at her.
I heard that you have to draw a proper magic ceremony to summon a descendant or something.
In the game, it was just a matter of pressing a button, but it became a reality, so it was not too much of a nuisance.
‘Miroel isn’t speaking without thinking.’
Eventually I listened to her and slowly drew a circuit on her floor.
Then, I asked her.
“Come to think of it, what kind of family did Master have?”
-Hmm. I made a contract with the Spirit King.
It’s the same as the original.
She is the only one who is known to have signed a contract with the King of Spirits in the original work.
I threw her a question to her with her doubtful mind.
“Then what do you think it would be like if I made a contract with the Phoenix?”
– Yes? Are you a phoenix? Ay, no matter how disciple you are, that makes no sense.
She shook her head at my question.
And then, add the reason.
-Normal contracts are an area of luck, not talent. Of course, if you have the necessary materials, you can summon them, but in the case of Phoenix, it is known that they have never signed a contract with anyone.
Certainly, Phoenix did not sign a contract with anyone due to the setting.
Considering his personality, he’s not the type to sign a contract.
‘I know he was a bit crazy.’
However, there is something prepared for this.
In addition to the phoenix feathers, didn’t they prepare separately yesterday?
‘Considering his personality and my talent, there’s a chance he’ll do it.’
With that in mind, I continued drawing circuits.
Then after a while.
“Ha ha. Thanks to Master, it ended easily.”
Soon, I succeeded in drawing the entire circuit.
The circuit she drew herself while holding my hand because she couldn’t see her eyes.
She said that in fact she can see well, but due to the setting, she can’t see, so she had no choice but to accept her touch.
-Then, infuse magic now. Disciple.
“Oh, wait a minute before that.”
-?
I quietly took out the phoenix feather from the subspace pouch.
Then, when she sees her red feathers, she is startled.
-That, that, can’t it?
“Yes, that’s right. It is the feather of the phoenix.”
-How did you get that? Disciple!
She was quite startled as she brought her face closer to me.
If you come a little closer like this, you’re ready to kiss me.
“Umm, I got it from an acquaintance.”
-Who the hell gave it to you? That precious one
To be precise, the system gave it to me.
As I panicked as I swallowed her whispers, she took a shallow breath and calmed down.
– Whoa. Sorry. Because it’s such a hard-to-find material.
“It can be. Anyway, it’s not like this, let’s summon it quickly.”
-Yes. All right.
As if she knew that there was nothing better if she asked more than this, she moved on to my change of topic.
I put a feather on the circuit.
Then, let’s infuse magic into the circuit.
-Hwaaah!
Red magic power emanated from the circuit.
The characteristics of flame appear in magical power.
It’s clear who’s coming out just by looking at it.
And sure enough.
– Grumpy.
The phoenix came out just as I expected.
However, when we saw that guy, our eyes widened.
That would be the case too.
-Someone called me. Mmm.
Because the phoenix was eating whole chicken, the same kind as itself, with the spiky roots.
A phoenix eating whole chicken was a moment of bewilderment once again.
