‘Mystery is also a mystery, but if you could use blood magic, the synergy with instant killing would be huge…’

The reason I am so obsessed with vampires is because of their racial trait, ‘blood art’.

Each individual has their own unique abilities, but the ability to freely manipulate blood like telekinesis is a common ability of blood magic that all vampires can use.

So, no matter how much I thought about it, there was no better way to maximize the efficiency of my instant killing than to get blood magic.

There is no way to do that.

The problem was that in order to implement it, you had to go directly to ‘Elrod Forest’, one of the places where vampires are hiding.

‘Totally suicidal.’

In this world, not all vampires are vampires that suck blood.

Vampires are also divided into tribes among them, and there are tribes that do not suck the blood of other races and live well with each other.

But because of those who are not, even moderate tribes are being persecuted and rejected in the same way.

For this reason, even moderate tribes who have been unfairly treated unfairly are very hostile towards other races.

Elrod Forest was also a place where moderate vampire tribes lived, but it was not strange if I was attacked right away when I visited as a human.

‘It’s not easy, it’s easy.’

It is not easy to make a decision.

The order of obtaining the other mysteries was, frankly, roughly determined.

However, when he suddenly discovered a new way to use instant killing and blood magic entered the consideration, whether or not to stop by the Elroad Forest in the middle was a concern.

If it were just me and Ashel, I thought, no matter how much I thought about it, it would be a dead spot.

‘But if you mobilize the monarchy’s troops, things get too big.’

It was just making war.

No matter how moderate the tribe, the vampire itself is quite a militant race, and there are many hostility to other races.

If I led the troops to Elrod Forest, they could resist to the end no matter what threats they received.

‘If that’s the case, I’ll become a slaughterer who wiped out a tribe to get a blood skill.’

And since Elrod Forest is located in another monarchy, it would be difficult to start with the troops.

The reason I got an escort like Ashel in the first place is that I can’t lead my troops around the other monarchs.

I buried myself in the chair and let out a sagging breath. And I turned my thoughts elsewhere.

A way to use instant kill more remotely without blood magic.

Even in the Luthers Mountains, which he had climbed to obtain super rebirth, he met Bellevagora and nearly died.

He had to travel all over Calderic in search of other mysteries, but such unexpected dangers could be encountered again and again. Even Ashel couldn’t afford it.

There’s nothing wrong with preparing a way to use instant killing more efficiently in case that happens.

‘long distance attack.’

First of all, there is a way to just cut a wound and squirt blood.

However, it only flew a few meters, so it was difficult to even call it a ranged attack.

In this world full of all kinds of monsters, if an enemy comes within a few meters to attack me, there is a much higher chance that I will die before I do anything.

Another method was to put blood on something and blow it away.

For example, shooting an arrow with blood on the tip of an arrow.

Come to think of it, this seems to be the best.

But of course I didn’t know how to shoot a bow.

‘If you don’t know, you can learn it.’

Anyway, the danger I was most likely to encounter while searching for mysteries was the huge monsters like Bellevagora.

Those filthy big guys, even with poor bow skills, they’ll be able to hit any number of hits.

I don’t intend to waste my time, but it wouldn’t hurt to learn how to shoot a little.

And because of the mystery of super rebirth, I have a lot of stamina, so I can practice as much as I want without having to take a break.

‘Then let’s learn some.’

I got up.

Asking the other knights of the monarchy to teach you bows is a bit odd.

There was only one suitable person.

***

“About… do you mean?”

Ashel, who was standing guard in front of the door, came out of the room and asked the 7th lord who spoke out of nowhere.

he nodded and asked.

“Can’t you shoot?”

“········No, I know.”

“Then go straight to the gym.”

She looked at the seventh lord who spoke calmly with a slightly confused expression.

This ruthless monarch was about to do another strange journey in the Luthers Mountains as well.

What the hell is a request to suddenly teach you how to shoot a bow?

The seventh lord said as if the thought was reflected on his face.

“It just suddenly got interesting.”

Asher couldn’t ask any more questions and had no choice but to follow the 7th lord.

The two moved to a large private gym located in the basement.

The bow, arrow, and target were all prepared by the butler, Plotto.

Seventh lord and Ashel stood side by side at a distance from the target, each holding a bow.

“Let’s shoot first.”

At the words of the 7th lord, Ashel immediately put an arrow on the string and shot it at the target.

Peeing!

The arrow, which flew with great force, accurately hit the center of the target.

He nodded and said.

“Teach me now.”

“············”.

Asher asked, not knowing where to start.

“You don’t know how to shoot at all?”

“okay.”

“········Then, from the posture first.”

She said to put an arrow on the protest and pull it.

The 7th monarch placed an arrow on the protest and pulled it only slightly. It was a sloppy form.

“You lowered your right shoulder too much. And the hand holding the arrow….”

At Achel’s request, he changed his posture little by little.

“Aiming at the target, as I just said, shoot now.”

The 7th monarch put up a protest.

The arrow, which flew loosely, fell to the floor without even reaching the target, let alone hitting it.

Ashel looked at it and said.

“Your posture was disturbed at the moment of shooting.”

“Try again.”

So the 7th lord continued to shoot arrows, and Ashel watched from the side and pointed out what was wrong.

About half an hour passed.

The 7th Prince still couldn’t hit a single arrow on the target that was less than thirty steps away.

“············”.

Ashel looked at the arrows that had been lodged in the walls and the floor with a slightly stiff expression, then turned her gaze back to the 7th lord.

Peeing!

The flying arrow hit the wall next to the target without fail this time as well.

“You made the wrong grip again.”

The seventh lord was repeating the part that had already been pointed out nearly ten times. Like a person who has no sense of moving his body at all.

The 7th lord lowered his bow and looked at her and asked.

“Are you mad?”

“······no.”

“Your voice was a little stiff. You’re right.”

“It didn’t come.”

The 7th Prince shook his head and said.

“How about correcting your posture yourself once?”

It meant putting your hand directly on your body and asking you to take a pose.

Ashhel hesitated for a moment, then moved closer.

Is it a big deal now to touch the monarch’s body? In the Luthers Mountains, I even did it.

“Fix your shoulders like this…”

As she touched the 7th lord’s body, Ashel felt it all over again.

Although it looked like it from the outside, it was really a soft body that had not been trained at all. It’s like it’s going to break if you just touch it.

The image of the Seven Lords who defeated the monster snake in the mountain range suddenly flashed in my mind.

What was the source of the nonsensical power he showed?

The 4th lord, the King of the Dead, whom I had seen unexpectedly before, felt a gloomy feeling that was difficult to gauge the depth of.

However, the 7th Prince, on the other hand, did not feel anything, so Ashel did not dare to judge him by any yardstick. Isn’t even this poor body a shell that doesn’t mean anything to him…

Peeing!

After correcting his posture, the Seven Lords who fired the arrow finally hit the target for the first time.

He looked slightly satisfied.

“I’m feeling a little bit.”

As the saying goes, the 7 lords who fired a few more shots hit their arrows at the target and finished practicing.

Floating Veil (1)

It’s been a week since I’ve been at the Monarchy.

I couldn’t just eat up my time forever, so unfortunately, I finished making plans and prepared to leave.

“Probably not until the next meeting of the lords draws near.”

Even without me, it’s a monarchy, and I don’t have to worry about it because I’ll take care of myself as I go back.

Among the monarchs, there were monarchs who almost abandoned their estates and only wandered outside. For example, Gwangrang.

Plotto nodded with the same expression as always.

“I will prepare as soon as you say.”

Except for Ashel, the attendants decided to go with only one person.

This is because Calderik’s geography had to have someone who was quick to take charge of these and other miscellaneous tasks.

I thought that one person would be enough because I had to go around other monarchy spirits, so I couldn’t drag a bunch of people around, and it wouldn’t make sense to attach a few more troublesomely.

【Lv. 46]

“My name is Baros, the first butler.”

A cold-looking male elf wearing glasses politely bowed.

It doesn’t matter what race or gender he was, he was brought in by Plotto in order to prepare as many suitable people as possible.

Level 40 is also quite high.

“I’m going to travel all over Calderic, can you get directions without getting lost?”

“Yes, my lord.”

“Get ready to leave right away.”

The staffing was finished, and Plotto took care of packing the luggage.

“Prepare a carriage that is usually inconspicuous.”

It didn’t seem like a good idea to ride a huge, colorful carriage full of patterns like the one I rode when I came here from Overlord Castle.

Because my location and route could have been exposed to other lords.

Because of that, I was going to visit other monarchs and, if at all possible, I would not reveal my identity.

There is no such thing as a monarch who will do anything strange just because he knows where I am, but there is nothing wrong with being careful because there is such a thing.

After making all the preparations, Ashel and I got into the wagon standing at the entrance of the building to see Ploto off.

“Then go away, my lord.”

Passing by the knights saluting at the gates, the wagon vigorously passed through the main gate of the monarchy.

***

The first mystery to target was the ‘Floating Curtain’, a defense-type mystery.

This mystery, with a rather unusual name, was an excellent mystery, at least in terms of its defensive ability.

‘Because the skill level in the game was about the same as the King’s Soul of 9 stars.’

Of course, there was also one fatal penalty that was that much.

But for me right now, it was important to get excellent defensive skills above all else, so the penalty wasn’t that important.

Instant death was the best offensive ability, but it has no defensive ability at all because it is activated only by direct contact.

It was something that had to be improved somehow, starting with a dangerous treatment that would explode in the head even if one hit with one level 20 punch.

‘Tyrel Mountains.’

The location where the Floating Veil is hidden is somewhere in the Tyrell Mountains on the northern borders of Salogal, 5th Lord.

I did not remember the exact location of the super-regeneration, because the floating curtain was not a mystery that I originally found and learned in the game.

There was a video of another user who recorded getting the Floating Curtain that went viral, so I just watched it.

‘Was it like a ruined dungeon?’

It’s not going to be easy to find, but I’m going to try to find it somehow.

There could be a way to ask for the understanding of the 5th lord Gwangrang and mobilize the manpower, but it was a method that was reluctant in many ways.

This is because Gwangrang itself is not a person who can communicate well, and when asked to explain the reason, he could not explain it.

And I gained more confidence as I got super rebirth.

It’s not a good idea to borrow someone else’s power to get the mystery.

Just by touching the mystery pattern, the mystery is absorbed by the person.

If someone discovers the mystery first and ate it before the report even came to me, there was no way to make it spit out again. It was like giving a dog to a dog who was completely dead.

‘It would be best to hire only a guide to find it, just like when you are looking for a super rebirth.’

Now the wagon was passing through the forest.

Calderic is a land in the form of nine monarchs encircling the central overlord territories in a circle.

The route chosen to lead to the 5th monarchy was to cross the outskirts of the 6th monarchy at an angle. It was the fastest straight route.

That’s the way to go, Baros, who’s driving the carriage, will find you.

“···········?”

I looked at Ashel on the other side.

It was because she, who had been sitting motionless as usual, glanced out the window.
