Youngest Scion of the Mages - Chapter 162
The youngest son of the magic family, Chapter 162,
Kashin also agreed that it was suspicious. No objections were raised. First of all, Kasin himself is in the position of ‘looking’ for a friend, and the person who is currently leading this group is Larsen.
Unless there was a major flaw in Larsen’s decision, we decided that it would be better to respect Larsen’s wishes.
“Larsen. “Then are you going to go in there?”
“OK. “First of all, it’s the most unique place.”
It also smells like food. Looks like there’s something to eat. There was plenty of food in the sub-space, but eating it out of the sub-space and cooking it yourself tasted different.
Larsen and his party opened the wooden door and entered. The hinge made a rusty sound as if it hadn’t been used for a long time.
A grumpy voice was heard.
“Come on Oshu.”
It was a voice coming from inside the kitchen. Larsen headed to the large table. Still, it was different from other places, probably because they cleaned it up a lot. At least there was no cloud of dust accumulating. A man dressed in white walked from the kitchen. He was a fat man with a fairly large physique and a mustache.
“tourist?”
Larsen responded on behalf of the group.
“That’s right. “I’d like to order some food.”
“There are three menus. Roast turkey and turkey soup. And steamed potatoes.”
“Please prepare according to the number of people.”
The man turned his back. It wasn’t friendly. Lydia narrowed her eyes. I asked while observing the man’s back.
“Larsen. “Isn’t that a person?”
“uh.”
It has the appearance of a human, but is not a human. It is one of the monsters that eat people.
“Then can I eat here?”
“Wait for now.”
However, it was necessary to figure out exactly what that monster was.
The real identity was discovered in Cheonan. The name is ‘Slime’. Although it had little direct attack power, it was a monster that attacked and ate sleeping creatures. It has the ability to transform into the creature it eats, and depending on the grade of the slime, it can use its original abilities to the fullest or only imitate them.
‘At least it looks the same.’
When seen with the eyes, it looked like a human being.
‘Did you come over from the Aurora wilderness?’
I don’t know where the slime habitat is nearby. After a while. The food came out. Looking at the condition of the food, it looked quite good. The roasted turkey, which was oozing warm steam, was covered in a lot of sweet and spicy chili sauce.
It tempted Larsen and his group both visually and olfactorily.
The potatoes steamed with salt were cooked just right, revealing their ivory flesh. As soon as Lydia saw the delicious cream soup made with thinly sliced turkey meat, her mouth started drooling.
“Larsen. “Can I eat it?”
“for a moment.”
Larsen put down the food and looked at the chef’s back as he walked away.
‘I can’t believe you can make food this elaborate.’
It seemed like he had completely absorbed the original chef’s memories. Hampton swallowed. ‘oh! ‘Twa!’ While doing so, he placed the steamed potatoes in his hand.
“Confucius. “I’ll eat it first, just in case it’s poisonous.”
“okay.”
First of all, Hampton tried it first. Hampton blew on the steamed potatoes to cool them.
Mumbling.
I put the steamed potatoes in my mouth and mumbled.
“Delicious.”
“What about poison?”
“there is. Unscented and odorless. However, it is a poison that cannot hide the sense of poison. To be precise, it is not poison, but it contains solanine in potatoes that becomes toxic when heated.”
“What role does this poison play?”
“This energy serves to temporarily paralyze the energy acquired and trained by humans.”
The fighting power of a martial artist.
The prowess of a swordsman.
Wizard’s Mana.
It is said that these three abilities are temporarily paralyzed.
“Of course, the paralysis time varies depending on the level of skill, but…”
In Hampton’s opinion, he was quite skilled.
‘A person who has studied for at least 10 years.’
He himself received full support from the Mayton family, and was born with German talent and honed it. But mostly ordinary people. Many people who dream of becoming Germans do not have much talent and opportunity.
At this level, he was quite capable among Germans. Hampton decided that way.
Lydia picked up the potatoes and ate them as if she couldn’t stand it anymore. Heira and Kashin also ladled soup and ate roast turkey with forks.
“Women?”
Even though this was a dish that slime recreated from people’s memories, imitating their abilities, it was delicious. It took only 7 minutes to eat all the food that was piled up. Hampton gaped.
“Hey… everyone…?”
Larsen chuckled.
“It’s been a while since I ate proper food.”
Hampton realized. None of them were poisoned.
Rosaline tilted her head.
“But it’s not a big deal, is it? Larsen, you didn’t feel it much either, right?”
“uh. “What about Kashin?”
“me too. Not really.”
Kashin’s eyes turned to Heira.
“It doesn’t affect me.”
Heira’s gaze naturally turned to Evian. Evian responded by floating a few small magic ice cubes in each water cup. No one was affected by the poison.
Larsen said.
“The chef here drugged travelers when he was alive.”
Kashin nodded.
“That kind of thing is common. “There are cases where money is stolen and there are cases where human flesh is eaten.”
“But the level is not first-class.”
It is not to the extent that it can affect Larsen and the others. Hampton cleared his throat. I thought he was a German with quite outstanding skills.
In fact, that thought still remains the same. More than 80% of the people you meet in your life will not be able to be free from this poison.
‘It is a poison that magicians of the 4th circle can be helpless against, Confucius.’
The scary thing about poison is that ordinary people without any powers are martial artists or wizards. The point was that it could kill even a swordsman.
What if a 4th Circle wizard can’t use magic at all? This means that wizards who are familiar with magic may become weaker than ordinary people.
‘Confucius is also a member of the 4th circle…’
He was not affected at all. The chef who used this poison was not lacking in ability, but the people here were too much of a monster. In the first place, strength is relative.
‘Now that I think about it, they’re all gathered in one place.’
Historically, moments like this would not have been common. The successors of the world’s three most famous families are gathering in one place and traveling(?). As a result, Hampton was impressed.
‘This is the benevolence of our Confucius!’
So I became happy. The poison that works on Circle 4 has no effect on Larsen, who is in Circle 4. Isn’t he an extraordinary candidate for a great successor to the 4th Circle?
Moreover, those friends also had very strong power. I realized once again that geniuses who can turn geniuses into geniuses are gathered in one place. The center is Lassen.
Kashin nodded.
“yes. It’s not top-notch. “It doesn’t seem like it’s even third-rate.”
Evian kept his mouth shut. His thoughts were similar to Hampton’s. Evian has more world experience than these people. At that level, it wouldn’t be bad to say it was top-notch.
However, we also know that the standards for successors to the three famous families are extremely different from those of the general public. So I didn’t bother to correct it.
“Anyway, a second-rate guy was the chef here. If these memories were transferred to the slime and he made the food this elaborately, he must have been a very sophisticated person. “You wouldn’t do something like this in an ordinary restaurant, right?”
Meanwhile, the chef came from the kitchen, taking out a knife. However, they could not reach Larsen and his group. Heira cut it into thousands of pieces first.
There was no blood splatter. The body dispersed like jelly and then melted.
“Thank you Heyra.”
“no.”
Originally, Heira did not take an active role. However, we decided to just catch the random mobs like the slime. Because weak guys like that don’t help Larsen grow. So, to save time, I just let Heira hunt.
Evian adjusted his glasses.
“I think there is something you would like to say, Confucius.”
“huh. This place was no ordinary restaurant. “There was a pretty good chef here who used poison.”
That alone is already suspicious. It is highly likely that this place itself was used for something other than a restaurant.
“The whole of Levadon is full of deadly ice mana, and slimes have crawled here. First of all, you probably didn’t come in through the castle gate. “There was no trace of slime at all.”
If so, it means that it came in through a different route.
“It’s a place with a secret passageway connected to the outside world. “Otherwise, someone put it there artificially.”
Evian and Heira nodded at the same time. Although it wasn’t intentional, their eyes met. Evian and Hera were thinking the same thing.
‘You are proud of me.’
‘You’re growing steadily.’
Their expressions were a little different, but their feelings were similar. Heira said, feeling a little happy.
“Then shall I find the secret passage?”
Larsen even figured out that there would be a secret passage. So, Heira decided to do the searching herself. I knew where it was from the beginning.
Heira spoke in less than three seconds.
“The kitchen floor. “There is an underground passageway connecting them.”
* * *
Larsen and his party moved to the underground passage. There were no lights in the underground passage. It was dark. There was water here and there on the floor.
Lydia lit a fire.
Woe!
The surroundings became brighter.
Larsen and his group walked along the aisle. Meanwhile, Rosaline turned her neck.
Crump!
There was a sound.
“It looks like there are quite a few monsters ahead.”
“I know.”
As I went a little further forward, I saw skeletons. The skeletons were all holding crude swords. Rosaline grinned.
“They are skeleton soldiers.”
“Do you know this monster?”
“uh. I broke it several times. What should I do? Destroy everything?”
Larsen nodded. Rosaline shot out like a bullet. It was a speed that even Larsen was surprised by.
‘What happened to him?’
Rosalyn’s skills, who were given the nickname ‘The Look’ in ‘The Joker’, were truly outstanding.
Even Kashin was quite surprised. Before, I only thought of him as a cute little brother or friend, but now I can see him as a worthy competitor.
Kashin asked.
“Is it possible that martial arts also grows at a faster rate than martial arts?”
“no. “The growth rate of martial arts will be similar to that of swordsmanship, right?”
“Isn’t that right? “I knew that too, but I asked just in case.”
Bye!
Sigh!
Dozens of skeleton soldiers were cut to pieces by Rosalyn’s fists and feet. There were many whose bones were crushed into pieces.
“I killed them all.”
Rosaline didn’t break a sweat.
“It seems like some of them have healing properties, so there are some that I turned into powder.”
Larsen felt embarrassed for no reason.
‘Why has he become so strong?’
I once again felt the strength of the only daughter of a martial arts master. But Larsen felt a little strange. Rosalind’s eyes are somehow burdensome.
“why?”
In an instant, the interpretation of Rosaline was understood. Larsen’s fur became even more painful.
