Chapter 128 – Over Technology (8)

‘No. I still have a chance.’

The place Ren ran to is a village protected by a plastic dome. In the corner of the area was a meteorite that had fallen from the sky a few days ago.

The meteorite forms a strong magnetic field near it, and it is a magnet strong enough to limit the use of electronic products and metals.

Almost all elves have already come into contact with this magnet, and Ren was convinced that the source of the spirits must lie within this magnet.

The problem is that the spirit doesn’t reveal its true self to anyone, including Ren. It would be better if there was no possibility at all, but Ren couldn’t stand the frustration when he gave him room like this.

“We were frogs in the well. Even if you try to train properly now, it will be difficult to catch up with the strong outsiders. I think I can understand why the Elder was trying to forcefully arrest people and train them.”

The reason Ren came here after seeing Serenian’s dark expression was no other reason. It was because he had heard of the problems the elves in Eden were currently experiencing through the war with the kingdom’s army just before.

Urea, who told the story to Ren, told the story of a beast-man warrior whom she, Liam, and Leon attacked and injured and managed to defeat.

She even added that she would not have been able to win if Serenian, who was fighting nearby, hadn’t killed the enemy general with explosive power borrowed from the power of ‘God’.

“If there is one more elementalist, the burden on the queen will be lessened. Because that’s the easiest and fastest way for us to gain strength right now.”

Urea mentions her magnet, and if a new Elemental Sorcerer appears, Serenian’s burden will be greatly relieved as she has to face strong enemies including the Great Forest Central Conference and the Kingdom of Delos, a powerful force incomparable to the monsters in the dungeon. She said.

Ren listened to the story. From the first time she came here, she watched Serenian fight her death and wanted to help her, especially because she was eager to help.

“So please help me. You are inside!”

Ren shouted, tapping the neodymium larger than her own. For Ren, an elf of this era, when the connection with the spirits, which were called attributes, gradually faded as time passed and generations changed, this was the best thing that could be done.

[You are not qualified]

“!!!”

It was then that I heard a faint voice. With her eyes wide open, Ren hurriedly looked around her with her goosebumps on her body, but there was nothing to see under the gloomy sky.

“Could it be you?”

[If you want to see my face, prove your qualifications. This stuffy plating that surrounds me, can you peel it off?]

An unbelievable voice was coming from within the neodymium. Having never heard of her elemental being able to speak an intelligible language beyond rapport, Ren stared blankly at her magnet, a reflection of her own face, in disbelief.

[It’s my heart apart from talking. Although there are few beings who can hear it anyway]

The existence presumed to be a spirit laughed at Ren, who had become stupid and stiff. However, Ren soon hardened her face.

“Are you asking me to break this?”

Then she tried to pull out her own bow. But she felt something was missing, and she panicked at that moment. It’s because she left behind an arrow made with a steel head because of her powerful magnetic field.

[You dare to attack me with iron metal?]

Her elemental laughed even louder when he saw Ren floundering. Ren looked down at her hand with a blank face at her actions, which were completely different in character from the lightning spirit she met with Serenian.

I thought about punching for a moment, but there was no martial artist in Eden that could break that hard metal with bare fists.

[Many elves approached me. The same goes for that woman who had a kite with lightning. Among them, only you deserve to have a conversation with me. But if you want to be in a relationship with me, you have to pass the test. The first is to peel off this plating]

“Oh, how do I take it off?”

[Destroy]

Swallowing dry saliva, Ren asked how to do it. The spirit grinned and instantly released a strong shockwave, creating a gust of wind. Ren was also pushed against it, to the point of knocking her butt off.

Ren, who was still inexperienced in mana training, realized that the strong repelling force that the spirit created around the magnet was not just a magnetic field, but a special force made of mana.

[Only those with strong power can break through this resistance. Don’t rely on tools you can’t even use anyway. It is forbidden to borrow the power of others. Challenge yourself with your pure power. Well, other people won’t be of any help anyway. Who will help you? Elves? Dwarves?]

“Nonsense.”

Ren sighed in a daze after hearing the spirit’s words. Archery is the traditional mana training method of the forest clan. Shooting mana through a bow and arrow.

It’s not just elves. Humans, beastmen, and just about anyone emits mana through weapons and tools. Few people can handle mana with pure bodily abilities. Because it’s terribly inefficient.

Even though it contains the same amount of mana, the power contained in a steel sword is stronger than that of a fist made of flesh and bone, so the stronger the name is, the more powerful people are not obsessed with a stronger and harder weapon that will strengthen their strength, saying that it is a new sword or a demonic sword.

“So you came to see me?”

Breaking his teeth, Ren got up from his seat and hurriedly ran to another place. Even if there was a question no one in Eden could answer, there was only one being who would know.

“What, please tell me how to do something. You must make a contract with the spirit!”

As soon as he saw my face, Ren, who was squatting with an emaciated face as if he hadn’t slept at all, knelt down and begged me for an answer.

I thoughtlessly looked at a pot of herbs right before I went to work wearing all my clothes, and saw a familiar blonde hair there.

I heard all the gibberish, but the story was a bit shocking, even assuming that Ren conveyed the truth.

“You are a spirit with a funny personality.”

The neodymium spirit Ren gave me was funny from the beginning. It is said that the spirit is originally an unknown entity, but did it really exist even when it was purchased at a nearby general store and rolled around in my fingers? It was a shock from my point of view to say that the metal coating to prevent corrosion was frustrating.

“…Is there any other way?”

“I wonder if this is right because it seems so easy. For now, please wait until this afternoon.”

I sighed at Ren’s face as if he was about to cry, contrary to how desperate he usually shows, and told him to go back and rest until the afternoon when I left work.

Hearing my answer, Ren widened his eyes and nodded in trust.

‘You dared to harm yourself with an iron tool, and they insisted on whether that was possible. Does that mean it’s just a tool, not iron?’

And that afternoon. After work, I did not go straight home, but headed to a large department store near my office.

The department store was selling kitchen knives. It doesn’t even have to be a kitchen knife. Any tool made of stainless steel that does not pass magnetic force can be used.

“Camping equipment.”

As I looked around, I saw an object that looked better than a kitchen knife that seemed sharp enough but far from hard. A small hatchet made of plain stainless steel. They even sell these in department stores.

It is enough to become a medium to strengthen by pouring mana into it. Eventually I bought a hatchet and came home.

As I said earlier in the morning, Ren was already waiting for me there, fidgeting back and forth.

“Isn’t this an ordinary iron axe?”

“The power of the spirits in the magnet won’t work on that axe.”

“Oh…”

Ren was handed her unwrapped axe, and she dazedly fiddled with it.

But there was still one problem. It means that if you take that ax out of this herb pot, you will lose the chance to adjust the magnification.

“Why can’t I leave!”

Unaware of that, Ren tried to get out with her axe, but got stuck and looked back at me with her bewildered look on her face. I had no intention of giving anything away for free in the first place, so I smiled faintly at him and put pressure on him.

“Serenian always goes with great agony and determination no matter what he gets here. He’s ready to cut his bones and give up his flesh. I know that the price is heavy.”

“I-I…”

“Are you ready for that? Are you determined to obtain the grace of heaven?”

Of course, I always want to help them, so I’m just saying. I’ll give it anyway, but I’m just warning you not to take lightly these acts that consume a few precious opportunities.

“I will definitely prove it.”

“Don’t do it to me, prove it to heaven with results.”

After a moment of hesitation, Ren nodded her head with her spleen face. I knew how sincere this kid was, so he didn’t bother holding on to it any longer.

[Scale (2/5)]

In return for growing the world tree by attacking the spider dungeon, I’ve already used the recharged multiplier opportunity twice, but it’s worth it.
