Youngest Scion of the Mages - Chapter 58
The Youngest Son of the Magic Master Episode 58
“The Bronze Giant’s body was protected with special oil.”
This was clearly confirmed with ‘Cheonan’. The bronze giant’s body was coated with a special oil called ‘Retin’.
[Retin is a special oil mainly used in humid southern regions. In particular, it was widely used to protect iron tools from moisture, and applying this oil prevents them from rusting.] This
means that the oil was applied to prevent rust.
“But there was too much rust.”
“Ohh?”
“As far as I can tell, the oil was Retin.”
“You know very well that the Mayton family does not use it.”
This oil is only used in the southern part of the continent. The fact that I knew that was both surprising and fun.
“I know that it has the advantage of being resistant to moisture, easy to obtain, and long-lasting.”
“yes.”
“However, it is extremely vulnerable to some poisons.”
Magner nodded.
“Your knowledge is excellent.”
I had no choice but to admit it. A 10-year-old with little world experience even knows about oil in the southern region beyond the red forests. Magner was the smartest 10-year-old he knew.
“right. The place ahead is full of toxic substances. “If you absorb it into your body, you will be paralyzed in at least one part of it.”
“I think so.”
“But how do you plan to break through?”
Once you reach Magner level, you can just proceed. Because no amount of poison can overcome Magner’s fighting power. But not Larsen. Larsen’s body has not yet finished growing and has not been trained to resist poison.
At least that’s the case externally. It may be possible to decipher it with the Holy Grail, but I had no intention of revealing the Holy Grail’s power here. I decided to tackle it in a more standard and common sense way.
Larsen grinned.
“If it’s poisonous, it needs to be detoxified.”
* * *
Hampton screamed.
“Aaaah!”
Heira felt resentful.
“Nuniyiyim!”
Heira kicked Hampton’s ass. Hampton, who was looking inside the well, fell into the well due to Heira’s kick, and this is the situation now.
Right next to the falling Hamptons. Heira is calmly standing and falling.
“don’t worry. “I won’t die.”
“Uuuuuu! “Save the Hamptons!”
Hampton struggled with his limbs for a long time after he hit the ground. Hampton, a German with a fear of heights, was unable to recover from the shock of the fall.
“Wake.”
“sister! “Are you planning to kill me?”
So Heira took out a dagger.
“Do you really want me to kill you?”
I licked the dagger. A bluish silver energy was leaking from the dagger. Hampton saw that and started hiccuping.
“Hyung.”
Thanks to you, I came to my senses. Heira stored the dagger in her bosom. Hampton couldn’t even see where the dagger went in or came out.
“If you come to your senses, get up.”
“Hyung. Hi.”
Hampton came to his senses and walked.
“sister. But were you really planning on stabbing me?”
“There’s nothing like pain to help you come to your senses.”
“So were you really planning on stabbing me?”
“As long as you don’t die, that’s fine.”
Hampton thought.
‘I’m serious!’
Heira’s eyes were full of sincerity. It hurts a bit, but it’s okay once you come to your senses. What if I don’t kill him? There was no doubt that he was thinking this way.
“sister. “I get goosebumps when I think about the real past.”
Where did Heira, the maid who was scared by the prince and cried every day, go and have such a fearsome assassin appear?
“I was the person who comforted my sister by giving her a lollipop two years ago when she was crying.”
“….”
“I can’t believe it was all an act.”
“This way.”
Heira took a step. I could feel Confucius’ energy from afar.
How long did it take to walk like that? Heira stopped in her seat.
“See you Tuwang.”
Hampton also bowed.
“See you Tuwang!”
Magner looked at Heira and Hampton.
“What about you? “This guy’s servants?”
Magner’s gaze was especially focused on Heira. When I look at Heira, I don’t feel anything. She just looks like a girl with a pretty face.
‘A kid with no skills comes here? That doesn’t make sense.’
This means that they are hiding their prayers.
‘Even with my fighting power, it’s difficult to gauge my true skills.’
He is clearly a capable person with assassination-type abilities. A person optimized to hide his or her energy and move secretly.
“You can’t believe you’re using a woman like that as a maid. The Maytons are amazing. “It must be a shadow.”
“My father gave me a special name because I was so lacking.”
Magner chuckled and laughed.
‘Did your father give you a special name?’
That statement probably isn’t a lie. Her ability to hide herself is too good to be called just a maid.
‘So you’re saying you’re showing it off now?’
He was specially chosen by his father. Although I cannot be the true successor, I am the variable of the Mayton family. That’s how you’re giving a hint. After all, it is like the Mayton family. At least they don’t stab you in the back. Like it. Magner understood it that way.
“Decatra gave it a special name. “Of all the assassins I’ve seen, he has the ability to be counted among the best.”
Heyra understood what he said.
“There are probably no more assassins in this world who have met King Tu, so I guess I am the first. “I will take this as a warning and be careful.”
“Without building up pride.”
Those who have reached a certain level are bound to have pride. But once you get past that level, you no longer have pride. The ‘those who have reached the level’ that Magner identified were like that. Especially in the case of assassins, showing pride is an important matter that can even lead to their lives.
“Most assassins who show up with pride but are counterattacked die.”
“Thank you for those kind words.”
Magner’s gaze turned to Hampton behind him.
‘hmm. It smells like poison.’
A combination of a German and an assassin.
“Are you a starter?”
“Yes, it is. “It’s a start.”
“You must be a shadow too.”
It didn’t seem like he was a German who maximized his physical abilities.
“Poisonous is an ability related to poison. There are poisoners who maximize their abilities, and there are poisoners who study poisons based on extensive knowledge and information about poisons. “Which side are you?”
“As you can see, I am the latter. “I have no powers.”
“It must be true.”
Those shaky legs are proof. It felt completely different from Heira.
“Is the guy that scared to use it?”
“I think it’s even weirder if you don’t get scared even when you’re in front of Tuwang.”
“Meanwhile, when I see you answering questions in a straightforward manner, my resolve hardens.”
Magner grabbed Larsen’s head.
“I mean, you used this kind of nonsense. no wonder. “It seems like it keeps leaving traces.”
“Why are you hitting me?”
“Didn’t you say something like this?”
“Should I?”
“You don’t have to, but won’t the medicine go up?”
“Is it okay to hit me if I get sick? “What kind of world are we in now, where you beat your disciples like this for no reason?”
Magner shook his head.
“I hit him because he was weak and had to do this trick. “If you were very strong, you wouldn’t need tricks like this.”
“That’s only possible for geniuses like you, Master. “I’m not that kind of genius.”
I am just a simple Cha Seong-min who wants to survive the purges at age 17, become independent at age 20, and live happily while maintaining the possibility of this world from collapsing.
Magner burst out laughing.
“Uh hahahaha!”
A crazy guy who shows himself like that at the age of 10 says he is not a genius. It’s even funnier because he seems to seriously think that’s the truth.
‘Don’t you think of yourself as a genius?’
What you’ve shown so far is enough to be a genius. He’s a guy with so much talent and ability that he turns all geniuses into dullards or criminals?
‘Even though you worked hard from the womb, you only worked hard for 10 years?’
A person is not a genius if he or she achieves something greater than what most people can do over decades of effort. That’s the truth. I’m not joking. This meant only one thing.
‘Mayton is full of such monsters.’
This means that Mayton is full of talented people who cannot even think of themselves as geniuses. It was a reasonable inference.
“good. “Then, can that poisonous guy detoxify this poison?”
I looked at Heira’s bag. There must be a lot of things in there. Since assassins do not carry such large luggage, they figured out that the luggage must have belonged to Hampton.
“It seems impossible to detoxify every poison. “Naturally, poison continues to be produced.”
“Is that so? “Then what will you do?”
“We can’t detoxify the entire place, so we’ll have to create a temporary antidote to protect Confucius’ body. “I only have that much material.”
Magner said as if he was annoyed.
“Do whatever you want.”
* * *
Some time passed. Glassware and glass sticks from a large backpack. Hampton took out a certain amount of water and various herbs and created a round pill.
“Confucius. “If you keep this in your mouth, you will be able to resist the poison to some extent.”
“thank you.”
The main character, Kashin, is sick for three days due to this poison. Larsen already knew that. Since I already knew the ‘result’, I could easily infer the process. But the process was a refreshing pleasure for Larsen.
‘Retin applied to the bronze giant’s body.’
That wasn’t something writer Cha Seong-min set up. I don’t remember exactly, but I only remember that one day, when I was writing about the ‘southern region’, something called Retin appeared briefly. But it appeared here.
‘It’s easy to create a process because you know the outcome.’
It’s like solving a problem by looking at the answer sheet first. This process was fun. Larsen put the pill in his mouth that Hampton had given him and began to advance. Magner followed Larsen.
“Tsk tsk, even such a mild poison requires an antidote. “There is still a long way to go.”
“….”
I couldn’t respond because I had a pill in my mouth. I just walked. There is poison mixed in the air. It’s better to get out quickly.
After walking like that for about 10 minutes. It finally appeared. A huge iron gate. It was a rusty iron gate. It seemed to be over 10 meters high.
[There was a huge door there with a dragon engraved on it. As Kashin stood in front of him, the door began to open by itself.]
Drurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
The iron door began to open.
It opened very slightly. Just wide enough for one person to walk back and forth. Larsen entered the gap.
That far away. I could see sunlight coming through. I couldn’t tell if it was real sunlight, but a beam of light was coming through the hole in the cave. A small piece of cloth was visible under the beam of light.
interpreted in Cheonan.
[Eomsim Gap of the Thousand-Year Dragon]
That piece of cloth is the ‘Eomsim Gap of the Thousand-Year Dragon.’ When you put that piece of cloth on your chest, the cloth thinly wraps around your entire chest and acts as armor.
‘good.’
At least once. It will protect your heart. It’s like having an extra life. I walked towards Eomsim Gap of the Thousand Year Dragon.
‘uh?’
However, there was something that Cha Seong-min did not set up. And there were things that the main character, Kashin, didn’t really care about. No, Kashin didn’t know. It was on the wall.
‘What is that?’
