Chapter 333: The Secret Shop
Chapter 333: The Secret Shop
After being possessed by this world, an unprecedentedly peaceful semester passed.
I still haven’t found Mephisto. He didn’t even know where he was hiding. However, it was clear what he was aiming for.
When the evil spirits are resurrected, Mephisto will definitely appear.
This is because when the evil god dies, the demon’s life is completely cut off, and there is no chance for Mephisto to win except to be with the evil god. It’s literally the truth of multiples.
There is a possibility that variables that I don’t know about may occur, but I haven’t found any problems so far even if I frequently activate [Clairvoyance] To inspect the imperial territory or pay attention.
We are also sharing information with other countries. They promised to report to me if any unusual signs were found.
There are two reasons for such a calm atmosphere.
First, 3Rd year 1st semester part “Act 14” To “Act 16” Were all passed.
Secondly, they are conserving their strength until the evil spirit is resurrected.
It is said that the weather is clearest and calmest before a storm comes. Now was such a time.
“It’s been a while.”
“I see.”
I arrived with Kaya Astreang on an island off the continent.
It was the first campus of Marchen Academy where I stayed for two years after I became Isaac.
I was able to come right away because I rode the Ice and Snow Dragon-Heeld.
It wasn’t empty like ruins. The dispatched imperial knights were guarding it.
I moved on.
“Isaac, where are you going?”
“Um... , Where is my secret friend?”
“A secret friend?”
Kaya tilted her head.
I took the campus exit and entered the forest entrance, where there was an old sign that said no access.
Following the road, I turned around at a certain section and went to a backwater. From there, I went down the mound and headed behind the tree with the cross mark.
I see. There was a small, shabby shop with a big tree.
“Uh, since when did this place... ?”
“Since ancient times. I told you, a secret friend.”
We went into the store.
[Welcome, this is Monon Workshop.]
A monster in the form of a raccoon wearing a wizard’s robe greeted us at the counter.
“Raccoon... ?”
Kaya was taken aback.
This is a secret shop.
You can only enter the second half of , And I, who is not bound by the game scenario, used it from the beginning and bought the magic camouflage costume – Berserker.
On the shelf, various unique magic tools were displayed, and various magic camouflage costumes were hung.
But my interest was not in the product.
I greeted the raccoon demon with a smile.
“Long time no see, Monon.”
[Huh? And! It’s you, Isaac. Long time no see. Did you come to mend the camouflage?]
Monon, the raccoon beast, lifted the hood with his small hand and checked my face, then took off the hood and smiled broadly.
Monon was a brown raccoon demon possessing the flame attribute.
“It’s not like that. Probably won’t come to fix it anymore.”
[Really? Too bad. It was kind of like your symbol.]
“I have nothing to write anymore.”
He lifted his glasses once and smiled.
The magic camouflage suit was the means chosen to survive Alice’s threat.
Of course, there was no reason to wear it anymore.
“Isaac, do you think there is such a thing as a secret friend... ?”
“Yes, it is him.”
Kaya secretly whispered in my ear and replied with a chin gesture in Monon’s direction.
[Is she your girlfriend?]
“Yes.”
“Eh, yes? To?”
Kaya’s face lit up at my short answer. Smoke rose above her head like a hot spring mark.
“Hey, girlfriend... ? Female.... Ouch!”
Kaya trudges back and crashes into a wall.
I am very shy.
That wasn’t my intention. We both liked each other anyway, so we just answered like that.
[Are you doing your best?]
“That’s done. Hasn’t the owner come yet?”
Monon smiled bitterly at her and bowed her head.
[And, I have a plan to deal with the crisis on my own. I made my own shelter in the basement. Even if that monster appears, no problem!]
The evil god Nepid’s power is not like a nuclear bomb. It is the power of extinction. It can burn the land and evaporate even the sea. In other words, even if there is an underground bunker, there is no meaning.
However, I had no intention of letting the evil spirits easily destroy this island. ‘Cause I’m going to block it somehow.
“Isaac....”
Kaya called me with a troubled voice. She looked at her Her eyes asked if it would be right to evacuate Monon by force.
She shook her head. I have the power to read minds. Forcing Monon to evacuate was no different from suppressing his will.
My choice was respect.
“Okay, so if you think something dangerous has broken out, hide in the basement right away.”
[Does it show when a monster appears?]
“Extremely. I will fly openly.”
[hahahaha! Okay, kind monster!]
Monon laughed heartily.
[Ah, I have something to give you! Take this.]
Monon took out the luxurious box and opened the lid.
Clean clothes were neatly folded and tucked into the box.
It was a product I had never seen in .
“What is this?”
[Masterpiece of my conversion! I don’t know why wizards wear cumbersome robes. It would be much better to wear clothes like this.]
“Why is this... ?”
[No matter how ignorant I am, I wonder if I haven’t even heard your story? A hero without a name. I went out to the city the other day and heard the words of a wandering poet and realized that it was your story. So I was inspired by that story and made it for over a year. It’s the sum total of all the skills I’ve accumulated over the years. Try it on.]
So it was the first time I saw it.
I changed into the clothes Monon gave me.
How to say, it became a neat feeling. It seemed to go well with Hwirang’s cloak.
I even put black gloves on my hands.
Kaya looked at me stunned. She felt a strong love that was burdensome.
[Effects are relaxation of the magic circuit and strengthening of the release of mana. Do you like it?]
I didn’t know that I would be upgrading my specs at this timing.
“How much? Live.”
[Just take it.]
“Why?”
[Because it’s a reward for caring about me.]
“Still, free is a bit uncomfortable.”
[Then do your best to protect this island. That’s enough.]
Nodded.
“... Thanks.”
I changed my clothes again.
I received Monon’s presents together.
The guy laughed and waved his little arms.
[Goodbye, Isaac. See you again.]
‘See you again’....
I greeted him with a smile.
“Okay, see you later.”
Kaya bowed and bowed politely, and we left the secret shop together.
As we were walking through the woods, Kaya asked with her worried face.
“Are you sure you are all right, Isaac? Even if you don’t evacuate that friend....”
“It would be right to evacuate by force. If you want to live.”
I have the ability to read other people’s minds.
And I read Monon’s Unwavering Will.
Monon already knew the situation he was in better than anyone else.
“Other than that, there’s no need to be coercive.”
“Yes... ?”
For the past 60 years, how did Monon devote himself to crafting magic tools and alchemy? I can’t even guess.
However, there is something I noticed only now that I have reached a high level.
Monon was not waiting for his master.
Because I don’t have the confidence to abandon this world alone, I was hoping that someone would cut off the thread of hope I had forcibly embraced.
That’s why I couldn’t say anything more.
“... ....”
But, sorry for Monon, I intend to keep this place as long as possible.
That was my compromise.
It was a time when there was only a short time left until the final stage, the battle to subdue the evil spirits.
