I Will Be the Only One Who Heals at the Prison Academy

097 – Not just animals. It is a fantastic animal! #3

A trap set up to catch fantasy animals.

In it, I found something quite surprising.

“Ariel. what are you doing there?”

“This Ariole, chasing the sweet smell, got trapped again… !”

A honey-headed ariole was struggling inside the small trap.

No, how the hell did you get into that size?

I’ve heard that cats love to get into crates and cramped corners.

Do you instinctively feel secure?

Ariel is like that too.

“Come out.”

I took out Ariol.

Then I was able to find a strange thing clinging to the guy’s shoulder.

“down?”

It was down like cotton wool.

Its color is light blue.

When I hold it with my hand, it melts away.

When I smelled it, it was very sweet.

It has a light grape scent.

“… … .”

I turned my gaze and looked at the 2nd tier hunting tool 「Capture Frame」.

There were traces of being ripped from the inside, as if something had gone wild.

Should I say ‘scorched’?

The blackened traces of the catch frame shattered it.

If you smell it, you can smell it burnt.

“Ariol, aren’t you like this?”

“It has been like this from the beginning… ! This ariole followed this strange scent of grapes… !”

“i get it. It is somewhere here.”

Fantasy animal clouding.

This fluff and traces of tanning were proof that he was somewhere.

“Did you just eat honey churros and run away?”

Clearly a smart and powerful entity.

A guy like this would be difficult to catch with the 2nd Tier “Capture Frame”.

You can catch it, but the odds of success are low.

Would it be 1 percent?

If you install a Tier 2 trap 100 times, only the “Honey Chule” inside will be gone.

It costs 10,000 won to make 「Honey Churro」.

It took about 20,000 Renés for the time and materials to make the 2-tier 「Capture Frame」.

If you try 100 times, you can say that more than 3 million Renae will be broken.

I’m not sure if I’ll be able to catch it or not.

“… … .”

I thought for a moment.

Now that this has happened, is there no choice but to make a Tier 1 hunting trap, the 「Master Capture Frame」?

The basic material for 「Master Capture Frame」 is 5,000,000 Renae.

And there must be rare materials that can only be obtained in certain dungeons.

In a way, it could have been cheaper to install a master capture frame than to install a general 2-tier capture frame here and there and mess around.

Absolutely get caught

In the long run, it’s a way to save time and materials.

“But there is a problem.”

The dungeon where the material for the master capture frame appears is easy, but did it have a specific gimmick?

If you don’t know how to destroy it or if you don’t achieve the required level, you will never be able to clear it.

“Of course, that has nothing to do with me.”

“I’m asking just in case, Victoria. Have you learned any dark attribute magic?”

“No?”

I guess so.

Because Victoria is a famous attribute magic dealer of the ‘Light’ category.

“I knew you would.”

At my words, Victorica seems to have gotten a little upset, and asks me bluntly, “Why do you ask when you know what?”

I answered simply.

“I have to go to the dungeon soon. We need at least two people who can use dark attribute magic. Anyway, well, if you can’t, that’s fine.”

At that time, Nike, who was grazing in the forest, shouted.

“Dark attribute magic, I know how to use it!”

“yes?”

Did you know Nike could use dark attribute magic?

After patting the dirt on his palms, Nike said confidently.

“Even if I look at it like this, I majored in black magic in the first year… !”

Yeah, if you think about it, Nike first introduced himself as a warlock.

Nike was originally a druid who used magic from nature, but was a friend who chose to major in revenge as a black magician to hide his identity.

But that skill would be lousy.

It was to the extent that I was barely staying in class D.

Still, I asked just in case.

“What kind of black magic do you know how to use?”

“What kind of black magic… . A little voodoo and a little curse… . Black magic uses magic, but the ingredients are expensive… .”

As Nike spoke, his shoulders drooped.

“… I couldn’t learn it to the end because the materials were expensive.”

As Nike said, black magic is expensive.

“Goat Blood”.

“Cat Whiskers”.

“Fairy Traces”, etc.

Because it requires a lot of media to activate magic, black magic can be learned with plenty of gold spoons without lack of material preparation.

Why, the bassoon, cello, etc. are so expensive that only children from well-to-do families can dare to learn them, right?

Black magic is just like that.

In other words, only bourgeois like Enio can learn.

“As expected, I have no choice but to ask Enio.”

Victorica was annoyed, perhaps feeling uncomfortable at the mention of Enio’s name.

“Victor, do you know of no black magician other than him?”

“no. I know about two more.”

Are there only two people as skilled as Enio in terms of black magic, Representative Morrian and Representative Eris?

But those two guys are just as insidious and dangerous as Enio.

In some cases, it’s even worse.

I don’t want to get involved if possible.

In fact, I had been deliberately avoiding them all this time.

To the extent that when he heard the name “Oh my God, Ms. Eris” in the alleyway, he immediately turned around and went back a long way.

Let’s ask Kim who spoke.

“Victorika, do you know any warlocks?”

“I’m not friends with those guys. you know well The kids who learned black magic all get a little weird. Should I be too excited… .”

It definitely feels like that.

In the first place, Victorica, the magician of the light attribute, and the black magicians cannot be close because their compatibility is atrocious.

“They often ask for a price. It’s because I like sacrifices and offerings, that’s why my personality changes so angularly. Are you willing to give me anything?”

“To some extent, I agree.”

Even if you ask for a cup of water nearby, it’s okay to ask, “Victor-kun, what are you going to do for me?”

Warlocks are thoroughly demanding and paying, contracts and fulfillment.

It must be seen that it is a bit far from the Victory Car, which values good deeds and service.

It’s hard to be friends if you have different political colors and values, right?

The reason Victoria and the Warlock aren’t close is for a similar reason.

In the end, I had no choice but to go in search of Enio.

Whatever the case may be, Enio is the only one I can trust the most among the warlocks I know.

so i went

To the delegate’s office where he is.

“Enio, it’s me.”

“come in.”

Hearing a calm voice from inside the office, I lightly tidied up my clothes and opened the door.

Upon entering, there was a pile of papers and a black-haired female student who seemed to be buried between them.

“Victor-kun, it’s been a while since I’ve seen you like this after school. I mean, I’m so busy these days. There are a lot of unprocessed paperwork due to club activities.”

“It seems so.”

“So, what are you doing here? Are you here to cheer me on?”

“no. It is a dungeon.”

“Dungeon?”

“I am going to the dungeon. We need someone who knows how to use dark magic proficiently.”

“Are you talking about me? But what? Too busy.”

Enio’s expression was quite cold.

He smiles as usual, but this means “Do not disturb and go.”

“I’m sorry for wasting your time.”

time is gold

If your time is gold, you should be able to think of other people’s time as if it were gold.

“I knew you were busy. Of all the people I know, I can only think of you.”

It was time to apologize lightly and then turn around.

“What, I was the only one who came to mind. When you hear that, it’s a bit like sending it away. Then wait a minute. If I can write a letter of introduction, I will.”

“No, there is no need for that.”

I don’t think it’s going to be written for free.

So when I lightly dissuaded him, Enio said.

“No, I will just do this. In many ways, I felt like I was going to have a rat in my head. Seeing the faces of people I know made me a little better. in return.”

Saying that, Enio’s face was quite calm.

Because he was a guy who wouldn’t let go of his mouth even with a fake smile, the gap between his expressionless faces was huge.

square, square-.

While the pen was ringing the paper, I decided to ask lightly.

“Is it because of your father?”

“… Viktor-kun, it’s good that you have a lot of interest in me and know me well. Sometimes it’s better to pretend you don’t know.”

“know. But sometimes you know it’s a minefield and you have to go in.”

“Huh, right? It’s fun.”

I wanted to see if the relationship between Enio and Duke Blackstar was the same as I knew.

Less variables is better.

I asked.

“Enio, do you hate your father?”

“I don’t like that. Don’t you know Viktor-kun well? My father killed my brother.”

“Wasn’t your brother killed in the war?”

“But, wasn’t it my father who sent my brother to war? Then the one who killed my brother is no different from my father. Even if it’s Viktor-kun, please don’t spit on this.”

“I understand.”

I also lost my father to debt and sickness.

I think it was the guys from that company who caused that debt and sickness.

Enio’s values and mine are a bit similar.

So I could fully understand Enio’s feelings.

Squeak.

The setting sun shone through the window behind Enio’s back.

Thanks to that, Enio’s face was in the shadows.

I can no longer read Enio’s expression.

Enio spoke from the shadows.

“Why do people fret not to have more? I already had enough money and land to fill my garage. Why are you greedy?”

“Enio, if you’re smart, you’ll know the answer even if I don’t answer.”

“do not know. What do you think, Viktor-kun?”

“I want to win. I roll the dice non-stop because I want to win this game of life.”

“It’s stupid. What’s good about winning?”

“I do not know. I want to try it because I don’t know. Because nobody knows what’s at the end. It is what you want to reach.”

“I don’t think so. I would be happy enough if I just stayed still.”

Then there is no progress.

When it is your turn, you must roll the dice.

Whether it’s 1 or 6, move forward according to the number that came up.

There may be times when you have to go backwards, but in the end, it is a game and life to go forward and reach the goal point somewhere.

At least I thought so.

But Enio didn’t seem to understand.

No, it’s something you don’t want to understand.

Of course, I won’t tell you to understand.

Should I say this instead?

“Enio, as expected, you don’t have to write a letter of introduction.”

Shuk.

Enio stopped his hand.

“Are you almost done? Why. Did you hate receiving favors from me because you disagreed with me? Will Viktor-kun become afraid of me like everyone else?”

Only the eyes glowed red from the face hidden in the shadows.

Regardless, he was a proud guy.

My answer is this.

“no. I don’t need anyone else. As expected Enio, I need you. So there is no need to write a letter of introduction.”

Do you think I’m going to turn down a favor because I’m barely disagreeable?

Such self-destructive behavior is only for adolescents.

I’m a veteran who’s been through all sorts of battles.

“And excuse me for a moment.”

I passed through Enio’s paperwork and stood in front of the desk. Then, as I pushed the desk to the side with all my might, the stack of papers fell to the floor with a gurgling sound.

“… What are you doing?”

There was a blanket on Enio’s lap as he sat in the chair.

long blanket.

Because of that, I can’t see what I want to see.

“Don’t try to hide it, show it to me.”

“Show me what? Viktor-kun, no matter how much I show wide tolerance towards Viktor-kun. There is such a thing as degree. If you’re being more rude than this, even if it’s Viktor-kun—”

I swiped Enio’s blanket and said something.

Then, a short skirt and shiny black stockings were revealed.

Were you wearing shoes?

After lowering her head, she focused her eyes on the black stockings—to be precise, the shadows cast beneath them.

“Also. thick.”

“What, what is it? What is thick!?”

“The shadows beneath your feet.”

I got up and grabbed Enio’s slender arm.

Enio said, “Victor-kun, what are you doing rudely… !?” I shouted, but I did not let go of that hand.
