Chapter 10) Crossroad of Life and Death





“Cough . ”

Weed was still coughing up blood .

‘This situation really isn’t good . ’

He sent a whisper to Seo-yoon .

-W…hat is hap…pening?

-I’m being dragged into the palace .

-E…scape?

-I just checked but my name changed to Hilderun and I can’t use my skills anymore .

Her level and skills also fell so she couldn’t think of resisting .  Nodulle and Hilderun probably felt this feeling of helplessness .

Ddiring!

-Treatment of the Black DiseaseThe black disease is eating away at your body . If you’re not treated quickly then you will die . If the time of treatment is delayed then obstacles can occur .

Level of Difficulty: Final Secret Sculpting Technique Quest

Quest Restrictions: Three days remaining .

The quest will fail if you die . You will return to the original Versailles Continent .

He staggered around the village and looked for a temple . If there was a priest at the temple then he could be healed with holy magic .  Boden village was a small place so he couldn’t find a temple . Instead, it was possible to meet a village elder on the street .

“H…ello . ”

An instinctive greeting to increase intimacy!

“You are an outsider . What is happening?”

“B…ody, have…to t…reat b…lack di…sease . ”

It was difficult to even talk .  Despite barely uttering the words, the elder’s reaction was cold .

“If you have the black disease then just die . There is no cure in our village . ”

“T…hen…”

“If you give money then I can help . ”

The eyes of the village elder brightened .  Weed knew that look very well . It was a look that aimed for more money .  If he had his original abilities then he could easily get rid of the village elder but now he didn’t have any capital .

“N…o . I…d…n’t h…ave mone…y . ”

“Damn . As expected . ”

The village elder moved away from the sick Weed .  The hearts of the residents were bound to be tough in times of war .

Weed admitted that Nodulle was in an unfortunate and regrettable situation .  In this world, he was someone fortunate enough to have a good face and a lover . But now Weed had experienced it himself .

The residents just indifferently walked past as they saw Weed .  Then a guard holding a spear approached and said .

“A diseased person can’t stay in this village . ”

He had no combat ability and his body was in the worst state so Weed might be bitten by wolves if he went outside .

“There is n…o da…mage . ”

“If you die then we’ll have to get rid of your body . Get out of the village . ”

“…… . ”

People really were heartless .

“I w…ill lea…ve . ”

Weed staggered out of the village .  He felt a vain hope every time he saw a resident but they didn’t help .





“Wah, a sick person!”

“Look there!”

He also encountered naughty children that threw stones .

-You have been hit by a stone . Health has decreased by 3 .

He had no armour so his health fell immediately .

‘At this rate I will die . ’

Weed lowered his head and quickly left the village .  It was distressing but he also had to watch out for passing dogs! He still needed to be careful after leaving the village .

-Resting has recovered 2 health .

Vitality is slowly recovering . It would be better with bandages but he didn’t have any .

“Keheok!”

-The Black Disease has caused a seizure . Health has fallen by 14 .

Lower vitality makes it difficult to walk .

Weed’s body trembled from the pain .

‘Still I’m lucky . Because it isn’t cold . ’

Wiiing!

Suddenly a cold wind started blowing!

‘As expected…I probably sold a galaxy in a previous life . ’

Weed suffered as he slowly regained his health and vitality .  He didn’t know how much time he had left before the Portu King sacrificed her . Seo-yoon’s abilities had also climbed so she couldn’t escape alone .

He sent a whisper to Seo-yoon again .

-Now wh…ere?

It also wasn’t easy to say short words .  His body was cold and in pain .

-I’m trapped in a carriage that is continuing to move . I thought I’d go to a palace but it seems I’m to be locked in a tower . I’ve been listening to the soldiers and it seems like it will take one day to arrive . I’ll inform you of my location once I’m trapped .

Seo-yoon indifferently replied .

-Y…es, fi…rst te . . ll me t…he c…ity . I w…lll go and g…et y…ou l…ater .

-Yes . Come slowly .

Weed had restored his health and vitality but it was still difficult .

‘I can’t stay in the vicinity of the village so I need to go to a place with no monsters . ’

He lacked physical strength and had to walk slowly .  He continuously surveyed the area to ensure no dangerous monsters were nearby .

-Vitality has decreased due to excessive movement in a fragile body . The movement will cause strain .

Health has decreased by 6 due to the Black Disease .

5 hours should be plenty of rest .

When he moved his body, the Black Disease was aggravated and his health decreased .

If he tried to walk a little faster then his vitality would drop .  Judging by his current state, he would die from the Black Disease before the 3 days were over .

‘It is hard to walk . It might be better if I just collapse and die . ’

Although he had fought with Barkhan, he never felt this tired that he just wanted to collapse .  It was the domain of monsters once he got away from the village .  Weed needed to exert a lot of effort to avoid or hide from the monsters .

‘I need to think about it . Small errors of judgement can’t be tolerated . I need to decided where to go and what should be done . ’

The urgent will to live! Weed’s quest had sent him on a long journey .  He had to live .  In reality, if his body was sick then he could lose everything .  The situation was frustrating but it could get better if someone empathized with him .

His weakened body caused his spirit to strengthen .  After leaving Boden village, a wide plain and forest stretched out in front of him .

‘I’d rather go towards the trees . ’

If he entered the forest then the path was steep and there were many monsters . But it was also dangerous in the fields and he was an easy target .  Weed moved quietly while checking the safety of the forest .  He hid his body in the bushes as kobolds and goblins passed .





“I’m hungry . ”

“Let’s hunt quickly . ”

“Kikikik!”

Even the kobolds were a fearful existence!

‘The sun hasn’t set yet . I have to find a safe place before then . ’

He couldn’t hide quickly .  Once the sun set, the monsters would become stronger and start to roam . Then it would be really dangerous .

‘This body… . ’

The body that could jump off a wyvern couldn’t even climb a tree now .  Nodulle was weak but the real blame lay in the Black Disease .  Weed utilized all his experience and walked slowly .  He hoped to find a house belonging to a hunter . But if that wasn’t possible then he wanted a place where he could cover himself up .

‘A cave . ’

Weed stared at the deep, dark cave and contemplated on whether to go inside .

‘At times like this, I have to be cautious because I can’t expect to be lucky . ’

He hid in the bushes and observed the cave .  And after a while, a bear left the cave and headed elsewhere .

‘I almost died . ’

Normally a bear meant leather and meat but now it was an existence similar to a dragon!

‘Once night comes, there is no place to hide safely in this forest… . . ’

The starving wild animals would also be really dangerous .


‘I have to go to the territory of the kobolds . ’

Weed moved carefully to the border of the kobold territory .  He was more afraid of the wildlife and weak monsters than the kobolds who moved in groups . If he was in their territory then he didn’t need to worry about other beasts .

“It is time to go hunting . ”

“Follow the kobold leader!”

The kobolds moved in groups of 20 .  They were monsters with a command system and preferred a systematic life .  Weed observed the kobolds in the forest and avoided them .  It was unreasonable to move further due to his vitality and health .

‘I have no choice but to entrust my life to the heavens . ’

Weed stayed up all night while crouching down .  The good news was that he had a lot of beef jerky so he wasn’t going to starve .

?????????????????????

“Kiyahh!”

“How exciting! Smash everything!”

“Huhuhu, it is my turn after Geomchi-127!”

The Geomchis were currently completing their Master Quest .

-Subdue the rebel army of PallisarRebels have taken control of Pallisar Fort . Subdue them quickly .

You shouldn’t die in battle and render large achievements as martial artists .

Level of Difficulty: Martial Artist Master Quest .

Quest Restrictions: Weapons Mastery Advanced Level 8 . A party of 30 people can be composed .

The strong point was that they could combine swords, hammers, axes, bows and spears to attack! The Geomchis used all types of weapons to attack the rebels occupying the fortress .

But countless number of arrows were pouring towards them .  The opponent in a fight needed to be strong .

“Men shouldn’t talk a lot . ”

Geomchi-3!

He took off his jacket in front of the gate and revealed all his muscles .  It didn’t matter if his defence fell . The wild beauty and pride in his muscles was the utmost priority!





He was excited about the Martial Artist Master Quest due to the increasingly strong enemies .

“Go!”

The spear in Geomchi-3’s hand started to spin at a formidable pace .  The arrows from the rebels poured down but they all bounced off the rotating spear .  This was a skill Geomchi-3 received when Weapons Mastery reached advanced level 8 . It maximized the power of whatever weapon he handled .  It was possible to apply this to swords and spears as well .

“Crush . Shortwave!”

Geomchi-3’s spear struck the gate with all his might .  There was a noise like a thunderbolt was falling as the gates were destroyed .

“Let’s go!”

Geomchi-3 cried in a loud voice .

Like a starving beast, he ran through the gates to subdue the rebel army .

“The Master Quest has already advanced this much . ”

“That’s right Teacher-nim!”

Geomchi and Geomchi-2 had completed the rebel subduing quest first .  Therefore, they could now create a new Weapons Mastery skill .

There were endless possibilities involved with the Weapons Mastery skill .  They could handle all weapons so they could make any skill related to a weapon .  Even if only a sword, spear and bow skill was produced, the combined power could make Geomchi stronger than the military .

Geomchi-2 politely waited for his master to produce the skill first . They followed a well-structured plan for their future and didn’t delay it . Their style was to create a Weapons Mastery skill straight away!

“I… . ”

Geomchi decided immediately .

?????????????????????

Geomchi-5 met a woman during a quest .

A female cook holding a ladle over a boiling iron pot! She was selling soup for those about to enter a dungeon .

“Please eat . It is delicious . ”

The female user Rosen sold meat soup for 2 silver . The soup bowls were carefully made by Morata’s novice ceramists .

“One more bowl . ”

Geomchi-5 cleaned out the soup .

Rosen was a novice user who only reached level 60 . But skill was more important than level when it came to cooking . The soup contained various types of spices .  Rosen laughed and handed him another bowl of soup .

“Is it tasty?”

“Everything is delicious when you are hungry . ”

“…… . ”

Geomchi-5’s insensitive way of talking!

“Give me one more bowl . ”

“Again?”

“I’m hungry . ”

Geomchi-5 ate seven bowls before entering the dungeon . Ever since then, he appeared every day to drink the soup .

“Welcome . ”

“Two bowels of soup please . ”

“Thank you very much . I’ll give you a lot of meat . ”

“Hmm . ”

Many people gathered around Rosen who was engaging in business .  This was close to a famous dungeon so many merchants and guests came to taste her cooking .

Geomchi-5 drank the soup every day and greeted Rosen . Rosen had a good impression of Geomchi-5 who came to eat daily .

“This must be your favourite soup . ”

“It is tasty . ”

“The food from other chefs are also good… . ”

The expression that secretly hoped he would say her cooking was the best!

Keook!

Geomchi-5 replied with a burp .

“This is a lot cheaper . ”

“T-there is no other reason?”

“Well, everything is the same once it enters the stomach . ”

Rosen was still an amiable woman . The blunt appearance of Geomchi-5who hunts in the dungeon and returns to eat all his food left a deep impression on her .

Geomchi-5 was also wearing great level 400 equipment . The other guests admired his equipment when he ate at the restaurant .

‘A person like that coming everyday just to eat my 2 silver soup . He likes me . But he is too shy to express it . ’

Rosen spoke to others kindly every time Geomchi-5 had a meal .

“I really like the Arpen Kingdom . ”

“Why?”

“People are organized . I can’t forget the first taste of porridge someone gave me while carrying stones to build the Cathedral . ”

“So you became a chef?”

“Yes . I want to cook good porridge for people . And my specialty at school is food . ”

“You must be learning the science of cooking rice . ”

“Huh? I’m a food and nutrition major . ”

“Isn’t that just rice?”

Rosen’s body trembled at Geomchi-5’s ignorance .

“But isn’t that specialty divided into several parts?”

“What do you mean?”

“Korean, European, Chinese, Japanese food, etc . ”

“That is… . ”

Usually there was a misunderstanding about the food nutrition department .

They learnt about balanced diets, new food ingredients development, microbiology, chemistry etc . but people just thought they learnt a variety of food cuisines .

“Do you have qualifications in cooking?”

“…… . ”

“You should systematically learn dishes . ”

Rosen wanted to hit Geomchi-5 with her frying pan and ladle .
