Chapter 104: Inscriptions
Are you not planning on learning magic? 🧙♂️
I was a little surprised by the sudden question.
"I can only use fire magic, but I have some theoretical knowledge. It seems like you have quite a talent. What do you say?" I asked Eorca.
"Do you want to learn magic?" 🤔
Self-studying may be difficult, but there are many valuable books in this library. If it's something basic, you can probably do it. 📚
"Should I become a dark swordsman?" I pondered, considering my options. ⚔️
I shook my head. 🙅♂️
"Why? It would be good to learn," Eorca pressed.
"It will ruin my growth," I explained. 💪
"Just because it's an underground job doesn't mean it's strong," I added. "In some situations, it may be stronger than a normal occupation, but in most cases, it is weaker." 📉
"If you change your mind, please let me know at any time," Eorca offered.
"You didn't want to solve the problem alone, so you made the offer, right?" I teased.
"Wow, what nonsense!" Eorca retorted.
I grinned to myself. 😄
Training researchers.
I was planning to leave this task to Eorca once I had cleared the 15th floor and had some free time.
Researchers belonged to the magician category, but functioned as support staff focused solely on research, not combat. 🧪
I watched Eorca tackle the problem.
While she was solving her problem, she started talking about her background. Her family was a well-respected family within the empire, but it fell into ruin due to political strife. She felt it was her duty to restore her family's name.
I haven't heard of it.
"How did you spend your time before coming here?" I asked.
"Me? I was a farmer," Eorca claimed, but I doubted the truth of her words.
"Let's solve these problems," I suggested, getting back to the task at hand.
After three hours, Eorca got tired and got up from her chair. The hall clock struck midnight.
However, the master had not yet logged off.
The reason was obvious. I was waiting for research points to accumulate. A total of 30 research points were earned in 3 hours. He was able to complete his first study with 30 points.
The time has come.
The research tree is divided into his three categories.
Hero Reactivity Research improves heroes' reactions to missions and orders.
Facility scalability studies provide facility details and enable more direct operations.
Dungeon Deepening Research expands the types of special dungeons and helps with smooth material procurement.
They each manage heroes, facilities, and dungeons.
Among them, the first research Anytng unlocked is
[Ding!]
[Research, the hero's reaction ability is now level 1. ]
It was a study of heroes' reaction abilities.
I had some expectations about the implications of this study.
[The blessings of the goddess fall in the waiting room! ]
Jin!
An unidentified ray of light shimmered in the sky.
The light beam turned into dozens of beams and shot out from the sky towards the waiting room.
One of the beams pierced Eorka's chest in her hall.
Huh?
Eorka rose from her chair and stumbled.
She sat back in her chair and bowed her head.
Something's wrong.
I opened the door to the magic room.
Jenna and Aaron at the training range found themselves in a similar situation. They were lying half collapsed on the floor.
I checked his complexion, but he didn't seem to be in any pain.
It was like temporary dizziness or something. It didn't take long for Eorca to come to her senses and stand up. Her face was pale.
"What is this? This feels really strange," Eorca exclaimed.
"I told you. It's the research," I replied.
"Research? What the hell does that mean?" Eorca was bewildered.
I thought for a moment and said: "Status window."
"Eorca fell backwards. The surprise was clear in her eyes."
"You can see it," I chuckled.
"Status window. Attributes are displayed as numbers."
"Medium flame magic element of flame?"
"This is a skill."
The light that shone into Eorca's chest was not directed only at her.
All the heroes in the waiting room must have had a similar experience.
"Follow me. You should also tell others," I instructed Eorca.
I took Eorca to the training ground.
Aaron jumped across the training field with a frightened look on his face.
"It's a ghost!"
"Don't panic. It's not a ghost or anything. I will explain," I reassured him.
"What, what is that?" Jenna asked, intrigued.
"Actually, she seemed to like it," I remarked, seeing Jenna's reaction.
"Oh, is that so? That explains a lot! Oppa was watching this. Yay!" Jenna pointed at me and exclaimed.
The status window had appeared!
