Chapter 40
… hmm? What do you mean?
Upon completion of a street of chores, Marquis, who had completed her duties in order to rendezvous with Paul and the others on the plain, noticed Ursh walking in from the direction of the workplace as she left the front door.
“Urshfang!!… why are you here?!?
To Marquis, who spoke up, Ursh returns a slight smile.
“You put finished items in the workshop. It doesn’t make sense if you don’t get them equipped before the second prince wakes up.”
That may be true, but that’s not what Markis wanted to hear.
Ursh must have slept with an anesthesia needle stabbed by his fiancée, Miss Isabella.
The way it was done was forceful, but I was thankful for Miss Isabella’s behavior because everyone was worried about the boy who usually forgot to sleep and work on developing magic items.
Why are you here?
“Boy, don’t you have to take a break? When did it happen?
“You were in bed until Isabella and the others got to the plains, right?
What’s this all about? What if you were replacing the anesthesia needle with a fake in anticipation of Miss Isabella taking it from you?
Ursh goes on to seed whether such a question was on his face.
“I didn’t think the boulder would take away the anesthesia needle, so I didn’t take any measures, and when I was stabbed, I fainted for a moment. I have” total state abnormal resistance “. The” poison ”resistance” “skill in it evolved into a” poison ”disabling” “skill because Isabella stabbed me with an anesthesia needle. Now we can finally evolve into a” total state anomaly, ”” resistance, “” total state anomaly, “” disabling. “Now that we’re up in level, we’re done for good.”
It was Markis who was silently listening to Ursh’s story clear, but he returns it to me.
“Boy, how did you know that your skills had evolved or that you were leveling up?
You can’t see your status for yourself.
On the contrary, it was unclear what skills Ulsh had up to now because he would play “Nursing” skills.
To Markis’ question like that, Ursh shows the ring he put on his index finger.
“This is my new magic item. You don’t have to bother to ‘nurse’ me to confirm my skills here. I haven’t been able to count them yet, so it’ll take a little longer to get on the market.
Magic items must have demonic stones, and equipment items are decorated with demonic stones like jewels, but the rings were rings made of demonic stones and their objects into rings without any metal or other materials.
Even though it takes skill to simply process the magic stone into a clean ring shape, even more detailed and advanced magic conferral techniques are carved into it, and it can be confirmed by the naked eye that the light is silly (ugly) inside the ring.
The truth is, even without such a ring, Ursh had already knitted a magic to check his status, but he deliberately created an item with the same effect to hide the magic and Isabella’s [status check] skills.
Now even if Isabella accidentally checks [status] in public, she can delude herself because she is using this item.
It’s not hard to imagine what kind of trouble people would get into if they knew they had ”rare skills” that other people wouldn’t have.
To ensure that Isabella, who is ”out of standard”, is not annoyed by anyone and is free to stretch and stretch.
And to keep watching Isabella’s smile next door, free of anything.
I’m not going to spare you the hard work or effort to do this, and I’m not going to hate it.
Marquis, on the other hand, not knowing why it led to the development of the ring, was simply impressed with the effect of the ring.
“That’s an awesome item… I want one, too, but it’s too expensive where you’re in the market, and you can only buy rich, right?
“Uh-huh. I guess I did when I started coming out… We’ve already simplified the procedure, so I don’t think it’s going to be too much for the producer to train?
Otherwise, a thief approaching Isabella might show up after that expensive item.
In fact, Isabella doesn’t need an item, and she doesn’t have it in her possession, but she’ll be aiming around without knowing that.
If possible, within six months, I would like to take the mass production of the “Status Check Ring” to the point where it is possible.
“By the way, Markis. Aren’t we going out?
“Ooh! Yes it was!! Lady Isabella went hunting for a rabbit to raise the level of Lady Amarillis. I wish I could find you, a corner rabbit.
To the words, Ursh puts his neck up.
“It’s that plain over there, isn’t it? There’s always a rabbit in the corner, isn’t there?
But Markis shook his head and denied it.
“That’s right, I haven’t seen a rabbit for the last five days. I was going to find out if there was any cause for the rabbit to go down in the corner, but I’m busy here. I’ve been thinking about checking in with the ladies’ escorts.
“Huh. I think it’s because of the worm, huh?
“… hmm? What?”
“So it’s a worm. Aren’t there worms in the plains?
There are two kinds of creatures in this world called worms.
One is a dragon like a footless snake, resembling a dragon depicted in the Asian region.
Face like a crocodile, crawling through the ground, fierce and exhaling flames and poisons.
Essentially, you only have the opportunity to encounter high-ranking magicians and high-ranking adventurers because they live deep in the dungeons or in volcanic areas.
The other refers to giant, long demons in general, such as mimice and potato worms multiplied or mimimice and hills multiplied from the ground of wetlands such as swamps, travelling through farmlands, plains and desert areas.
These also appear in close proximity, so the average person has the opportunity to witness them.
It was the latter that Ursh said.
Worm travels through the earth, sometimes out on the ground, swallowing and preying on the creatures that are there.
Bulls and horses on the farm, as well as rabbits and sheep on the corner of the plain, some giants even drink giant pigs (giant boars).
Sure, it’s not that there’s no story about the rabbit being invisible anymore.
Because rabbits have a strong crisis detection capability and are quick to escape, it is no surprise that if the worms that prey on them live in the ground, they will quickly escape and disappear.
But if we don’t investigate, we don’t know where it actually is.
Though the worm comes out of the ground, it plugs and dives nicely through the holes that come out, so it’s not something that you can see at a glance whether you’re living on a plain or not.
Plus, it was late last night when Ursh and the others arrived. I don’t think I could have seen the plains.
“Why did you think that when the worm was here?
“I wonder if recent weather and temperatures and eyewitness testimony from areas south of Coco. Over the past few days, commercial guilds have received reports of worm sightings from moving merchants and merchants. They’ve been warming up lately, so they may have come to this neighborhood. In two weeks, the Adventurer’s guild may be ready for a crusade.”
Contrary to Ursh, who talks to him in a quiet manner, Marquis, revealing a sense of impatience, rushed towards the plains.
If there really is a worm on the plain, two little girls are in danger.
It’s a worm that swallows a large dog-sized corner rabbit.
Two six-year-old girls are quickly swallowed whole.
Paul accompanies him together, but dealing with the worm while protecting two girls is a heavy load on him.
“Ladies, please stay safe…
Walsh, who dropped off Markis’ back as he ran down the mountain path, walks out toward the mountain hut.
With a skill sealed bracelet in one hand, he smiles.
“Well, it’s time to get the recipe for ‘Arrogance (Spelvia)’ from the Second Prince .
