31The second word overturns the game board (Episode 148)
[start to relax.]
[Base rest begins.]
[Rest 9. Ilya overcomes the crisis]
Rest 9. ‘Ilya overcame the crisis’’
Ilya, considered a large city, has recently suffered from a murderer. Whenever a murder occurred in a nearby city, Ilya's consumption decreased significantly and tax revenues also took a hit..
Citizens were frustrated that they were not protected just because they stayed within the city walls, and they wondered whether the city's actual ruler, Earl Brispin, was incompetent..
First, Count Brispin's wise and decisive action drove the killer into a corner, and the actions of a clever adventurer finally defeated the killer..
Crisis is an opportunity.
People are praising the achievements of Count Brispin and praising the hero of Ilya who was born with him..
The city is currently in a state of celebration..
In a city that is in a festival state, the recovery rate from fatigue in accommodations during the festival increases, prices decrease, and it becomes easier to gain favor from citizens..
Adventurers must fully rest and train here or at other rest areas and prepare for the next adventure..
Goal: rest and maintenance.
I feel tired when I fail to achieve my goals.
Current remaining time: approximately 30 days」
“Ha ha ha ha ha! You destroyed this in a grand manner.!”
“The material side has been resolved.?”
“I think it will be okay because the lord supports it..”
“I guess I'll have to work like hell for a full week..”
The whole city came alive.
The idea of a festival like this taking place simply because the dark cloud hanging over the city had lifted was an unfamiliar scene to those who had relocated, but the citizens enjoyed the festival without any hesitation..
As befits the bustling city atmosphere, the association community was also more lively than usual..

[Title: I'm sorry, but those who were huddled together and hiding on the other side of the wall…]
The people working on the restoration said that the place was vibrating with a sour smell. Are you tired??
- I saw it, someone was wearing armor and something was flowing..
- Honestly, I would be bored if I were there.
- It was much scarier than watching a horror movie alone; Even though I'm tired, I have to admit it haha. To be honest, I'm a little tired..
- What kind of recognition is that? It's just peeing..
- If you were there, you would have pooped right away haha You scolded the dog for not seeing it in person haha
- In the ㄹㅇ community, they are very ascetics. If you were there, your pants would be so bulging that you would immediately become baggy.
- If you rap like that, you'll be nominated for a Grammy right away..
- Everyone, calm down! Find the opposite sex!
- That bastard told me to pee.!
- I'm saying this because I don't understand, but we're talking about who pooped and who peed, right??
- As expected, it is a conversation between intellectuals of this era..
- If anyone asks about the future of Pandea, bury your head and look at the association community..
- In front of it… All I see is darkness…

[Title: Now I know how the people of Ilia call ascetics?]
The hero of the clock tower hahahahaha
Hahahahahaha
- Fuck, I even heard of a guy driving a bell lol.
- Hahahaha my stomach hurts haha stop laughing hahaha
- If the ascetic had heard that sound, he would have immediately jumped off the clock tower.
- lol… But why are there tears in my eyes? … Is it because I laughed so much??
- actually… The hero of the clock tower is a little crazy, so I put my nickname in front of the mirror at my dorm and shout it out loud haha.
- I'm XXX who drives the bell lol.
- Should we just call each other??
- Okay, what's your nickname??
- I'm Genji's Hotteok.
- I said don't add cucumbers.
- …It was so fucking long. Let's just not call it.
- ha… Write… The world is bitter, Sipal.

[Title: All the people in the city are ascetics. I’m jealous of your popularity… You probably have a girlfriend too?]
Are you dating the pilgrim you used to go with??
- ㄴㄴ Last time I saw you, I heard you were hanging out with that archer more..
- The archer looks really strong too.…
- To be honest, I don't think the ascetic is that good.…
- Hey haha look at these bastards, they caught the black knight. You can beat the black knight?
- I just cut it to 5 seconds haha.
- Are you strong? I can't believe I lasted 5 seconds;;
- But what is that skill? I saw that he used shot put as his summons.
- Jegu was crazy too ㄹㅇ

[Title: What kind of reward did you get??]
I have 1 silver coin lol
- I have 1 potion lol
- Wow, everyone lost their rewards..
- The ascetic will receive it directly from the Count, right? What should the Count give me??
- Count: The reward is mine.…
- That's a hideous thing, and as a reward, the ugly thing left.
- But what is Ascetic’s nickname??
- They say they don’t know.
- Morundae is my nickname.?
- No, I really don't know..
- I'm not an idol or an idol, so why can't I know the nickname? Haha, you're a mystic..
- That's why people call themselves ascetics..
- Still, it's better than the hero of the clock tower. I just called you Mr. Oh, but it's a nickname that makes the person who calls it feel so distressed that they want to commit suicide haha.
Chameli, snowfall, and this time, even Philia. They were now at Earl Brispin's quaint villa..
In front of them was a car they had never heard of..
Chameli savored the tea first and then opened her mouth..
“The scent is boring. Are you from the north??”
“That boredom is the charm of the North. If it's the vitality that somehow breaks through the frozen ground and makes life bloom, it's okay if the scent is a little boring..”
“also… It was a precious car. The hospitality is too much.”
“At best, the water from which the grass was washed is so amazing for radish... If people who don't know much about tea drink it, it's no different from mineral water. however….”
Earl Brispin stared at the snowfall..
“You don't enjoy tea? Even if the hospitality was not good last time, I never thought I would even drink it this time, even though I put a lot of thought into preparing it... . Don't you like something??”
In fact, it was poor etiquette to refuse refreshments prepared by a nobleman, but Kang Seol still declined as politely as possible..
“That's because I have no knowledge of cars..”
“haha… Well, it's a boring hobby for nobles. Anyway, I feel satisfied to host distinguished guests at this villa..”
The Count said, looking at Chameli..
At this, Chameli was humbled..
It was usually her responsibility to provide these courtesy duties..
“You're a VIP, don't you think?….”
“No, you did a great job for Ilya..”
“…I just did what I had to do. The Black Knight is a harmful entity to Pandea, and Baranoa is ready to draw his sword for Pandea's justice at any time..”
“Since the grace of the Holy Kingdom has reached Nevenia, I can only repay you with praise. I will organize here a few things that could be problematic..”
“Sure.”
Brispin said, glancing at Chameli and Snowfall..
“Let’s start by summarizing the damage caused by the Ilia city blockade..”
“yes. Our parish….”
“You will have to choose your words well. If you spit it out carelessly, you won’t be able to pick it up..”
“……Is there a lot of damage??”
“The total damage alone is significant. Well, it's a manpower issue since citizens volunteered to do it. Even so, there are various problems with material supply.….”
Chameli was in tears..
It was the Black Knight who destroyed the building, but it seemed unfair that their parish had to pay for everything..
“However, I do not intend to accept any costs incurred in that area..”
“Is that really true??”
Chameli's eyes became as bright as a lantern and she jumped up..
“I am also a person who knows shame and knows grace. Such support is nothing short of a disgrace to me..”
“…On behalf of Baranoa, I would like to thank you for your consideration like Hahae..”
“However, that does not mean that there was no damage, so even if I provide support, citizens may be dissatisfied..”
Snowfall and the others exchanged glances..
Chameli swallowed and asked..
“There are conditions you want..”
“That makes sense..”
“which….”
“haha… So… I'd like to start by resolving the issues related to this story..”
“tangled problems?”
Sigh…
Brispin adjusted his posture and looked at the snowfall..
“Did you say snowman??”
“you're right.”
“If you kill the Black Knight, Brispin has declared that you will receive a similar reward. Do you remember?”
“yes, i remember.”
“Is there anything else you want??”
Options suddenly came to mind before Snowfall’s grave eyes..
[Count Brispin has asked what you want as a reward for defeating the Black Knight. I think you need to choose your answer carefully. How would you answer?]
1. How dare I expect personal gain in return for doing what I am supposed to do? I just want you to think that I'm here to help the count rule wisely..
2. How can the results of my actions for the citizens end up in my own self-interest??
3. I will take whatever you give..
4. I want you to put down your sword..
……
‘There are a lot of hypocritical options..’
In general, when dealing with nobles, such options would pop up..
The easiest way to gain the favor of a nobleman was to tell him what he wanted, either by turning it around or telling him what he wanted 2 or 3 times..
However, Kang Seol had no desire to do so..
‘In the first place, Ilya plans to leave soon..’
I couldn't see any adventure that would give me a reason to stay here. Snowfall planned to leave this place once the Black Knight's work was completed..
Just as an employee who has resigned in his heart commits the most unconventional actions, Kang Seol also expressed his wishes without hesitation..
“I would like you to introduce me to a skilled craftsman..”
“Ho... Were you interested in that? There are quite a few craftsmen like that in Ilia.?”
“The craftsmen I want are probably a little different from the craftsmen the Count has in mind..”
“…is it? If you can tell me what's different, I'll do my best..”
container…
A slightly sized bottle was placed on the table. The black object in the bottle screamed.
【Do you think it will be okay after this? Take care of your mind….】
The snowfall hit the bottle..
Tung.
【don't do it! Don't appease me!】
Chameli, Philia, and Brispin's expressions suddenly turned grim..
“This….”
“oh my god….”
“Could this be….”
Kang Seol nodded..
“you're right. It's grief, the demonic spirit that controlled the Black Knight..”
“All of this needs to be burned immediately….”
“I will now prepare for the purification ritual.!”
Bitan screamed in horror..
【I'll stay quiet! I'll stay still! I'll be quiet from now on!】
Brispin asked..
“Are you looking for a craftsman who can completely extinguish your grief??”
Kang Seol shook his head..
“I'm looking for a craftsman who can help me use this thing..”
“haha… This is nonsense. Are you trying to become another black knight??”
“you are too dangerous!”
Sigh…
Kangseol showed off the two rings she was wearing..
“This… I see, is it a sign of the labyrinth??”
“Did you know that I am an ascetic??”
“It's strange that the people talking so loudly don't even reach my ears. This token is….”
“Nullifies the power of the abomination.”
“Unbelievable… I see, so they were targeting that heartbreak..”
Brispin thought for a moment and then came up with an answer..
“I don't know if he's the right person for your request, but I know a craftsman who can handle this..”
“Is that really true??”
Honestly, Kang Seol didn't expect to find the right person so quickly..
If Brispin couldn't find a craftsman to introduce, I thought of some other suitable compensation, but something happened beyond my expectations..
Brispin tapped his forehead with his index finger..
“Okay… But I don't know if the old man will come forward willingly..”
“it's okay. I'll at least give it a try.”
“Alright, then let me introduce you to the craftsman. step… There are conditions. If you accept this condition, as mentioned earlier, you will not be charged for the cost of restoring the city, and you will also be written a letter of recommendation to the craftsman..”
Kang Seol had already sensed that Brispin was deliberately dragging out the story so that he would have no choice but to accept the conditions..
‘It shouldn't be a big deal….’
Brispin smiled and put down his teacup..
“This Brispin wants to be your guardian..”
“yes?”
Phew-!
Chameli spat out a small amount of tea..
