Chapter 433
“Kikit, anyway… if something like that happens, it’s worth giving a whisper.”
“There’s no need for you to suffer because of me…”
“As expected, brother.”
Biyemi, Roubini, Ram Hwa-jeong, etc. were users who had no doubt about the achievements of the following.
Bobae, who had come close to Kijeong, tilted her head for a moment while listening to Roubini, but could not say anything to her at this point.
“Then what happens next? “Are you done with the disgusting fish heads?”
“Wow! Martial arts master! of course! You did it! My brother below! You did it! Bobae! Bobae!”
“Ouch! Oh my, Ki-jeong?!”
Because Ki-jeong was so excited.
Ki-jeong comes up to Bo-bae, grabs her arms and does a strange dance, and Bo-bae is forcibly holding her arms and vaguely twitching her waist.
Seeing the two people’s friendly yet funny appearance, laughter spread throughout the New Serpent.
The loud, bright laughter that spread all the way to the Marlin made Alexander and Bailippus happy, and was enough to make Chiyo pull out her hair.
‘how?! How on earth? No, no. I can’t do that. Was Drake caught in the middle? Didn’t you say you weren’t going? No, even if I had gone, the time wouldn’t have been right. Did Leeha have any other weapons? That dragon? Has the bronze dragon grown at all? Are you that lucky? What does a septic tank look like? How do I get into the Dragon Palace? Chi -III, damn, damn, fuck, fuck! ‘
It was as if he had lost sight of Leeha right before his very eyes.
I obviously decided not to let down my guard… but
I thought that accepting the mermaid quest and going was the same as going to die.
Chiyo was no different from other users in that she was skeptical despite seeing Lee Ha say that she could do it.
‘I should have been wary of that confident attitude, that crazy attitude that seemed like something out of a dream! Argh! I’ve experienced it! I’ve been dealing with this guy since the National War, no, since the Hwahong and Byeolcho alliance, and you missed out on important information in such a sloppy manner!’
As the head of the Shinobigumi, the best and strongest among the user-led information guilds, the wounds suffered by Pride were more painful to Chiyo than simple financial losses.
While other users of the Marlin were rejoicing over the following news, I was alone in a corner pulling out my hair.
‘I will never miss it. I’ll stick even more thoroughly and pull out everything, haha.’
The dancer opened her eyes and trembled.
This means that the damage to her pride that Lee Ha unintentionally inflicted on her was that great.
So much so that you wouldn’t even think there was a fencer watching.
‘As expected…’
Shinnara shook his head and quickly hid himself.
***
―Eung! Ugh! What, you completed the quest?!
―Mr. Leeha! I told you to tell me if anything happens?! And again, I completely forgot!
-What item will you receive? Okay, my hat is a little old, but…
―Kid isn’t the only one who won’t give me a hat. If you don’t want your head to explode, grab my shoes too.
―Brother, let’s see―
―It’s possible to share your accomplishments in a realistic way, right? Looks like you got at least an A+ grade?!
-want.
‘ok?!’
Lee Ha lost sight of the Sea God’s words for a moment in the crowd of whispers.
At an important time, people are praising the work that has been done to restore the septic tank, and saying that the relationship between mermaids and humans, which had been severed for a long time, is improving from there, that it is no different from a treasure for mermaids, etc.!
Lee Ha had no choice but to quickly whisper to each person one by one and tell them that he would contact them later.
‘If it were Ram Hwayeon, I would handle everything at the same time, but not me! But I think Ram Hwa-jeong said something.’
Leeha had missed one important word due to the frantic whispering, but I didn’t even bother to ask him to say it again.
“-Therefore, I would like to give you a gift from the treasury of our Dragon Palace. Normally, I would choose it myself… but this time, I specifically chose it myself.”
“Uh- yes? yes?”
what?
I was paying attention to the whispers over there and missed what was being said here! Below, I tried my best to understand the current situation.
The sea god was slowly wagging his tail from his throne and coming down to where Leeha was.
While Drake had both human legs and a fish tail, the Sea God, despite being Drake’s father, had the entire lower body of a fish, no different from an ordinary mermaid.
The trident seemed to be one with him in the water, floating next to him even though the sea god was not holding it.
What the sea god is holding is something with a bluish feel, similar to the color of water.
‘cloth…? No, it’s a bit transparent to be considered fabric – what is it? Cold jellyfish?’
It couldn’t have been that way, but Lee Ha had an ominous premonition.
At the end, I heard something like, ‘I chose it myself.’ This is because I instinctively understood the meaning of those words.
‘You’re giving me that? no way? ‘You want me to give that to you?’
Just looking at it hanging limply from the sea god’s grasp makes me feel weak, but what can I do with that?
Lee Ha was disgusted by what looked like a muffler, but he couldn’t bring himself to show it.
“Will you accept this?”
“I feel like I’m a little inadequate to receive something this precious. It would be better to choose something suitable for my level from that storage place-” “
That’s what you’re saying, haha, Lord! Are you ignoring the Sea God’s favor now?”
“Well, that’s not it! No, if I get this and get something else from the storage—”
“I can’t even think of anything else!” Because nothing in the storage can compare to this! The Sea God himself—”
“Enough, Sibreem. I can say things like this because we are best friends. “Isn’t that right?”
It’s a picture of the sea god stopping Sibreem from running wild.
Moreover, I could tell just by listening to the words of Guard Captain Sibreem.
If you get that, it’s over. But you don’t have a choice either. Now that things have come to this, I have no choice but to believe what Shivrim says.
“That’s right, Sea God. “I made a mistake because I don’t yet have a clear understanding of the Dragon Palace and the sea.”
“Um, um. “It’s okay.”
The sea god nodded kindly and lifted the object he was holding. All eyes of the mermaids were focused there.
“I am the king who leads all mermaids, and the ruler of this sea, to my human compatriots who risked their lives for our water spirits-”
The sea god took a deep breath and spoke in a loud voice.
In the Dragon King’s room, which was designed as a sphere, his voice was so loud that it ‘reverberated through the water’ and even echoed.
“I propose to share the power of the water spirit. If anyone in the clan has a disagreement, speak up now!”
There was no mermaid who answered the sea god’s cry.
Silent consent. It meant that the whole story had already ended.
“Even when all I could see was Re, I saw you wield the power of the fire elemental. Ifrit, at least tell me a story… Tsk.”
“…Hey, okay?”
“We can’t just watch you, who is closer to us, playing around with Ifrit. Now, take it.”
Lee Ha tilted his head for a moment, but was able to vaguely remember what the sea god said inside the septic tank.
‘Little! I think the fire spirit said something like that while looking at the kid. Is that about it? What is Ifrit? Is that the name of a fire spirit? Or just something else related to the fire elemental?’
I didn’t fully understand it, but I couldn’t just stare blankly at the sea god’s outstretched hand.
Lee Ha held out both hands and accepted the item he handed to him.
‘Ugh, this is my quest reward! my shoes! My bottoms! My child-’
“Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaa?!”
When Lee Ha received the item for crying and eating mustard, she ended up screaming.
This is because the soft, wet item stretched like a rice cake and wrapped around his arm!
“Whoa, whoa, this- what is this, this?!”
“Hahaha, it looks like he likes you very much. “Good.”
“I guess it’s because my intimacy with the water spirit has reached its peak.”
“Um, um. Hahaha, who knew people would follow humans like that?”
The God of the Sea showed a satisfied expression as he looked at Leeha’s embarrassed appearance. There was no room for Leeha to ask questions as Drake even came forward and said a word.
Seeing this, Sibreem raised his weapon.
All the mermaids cheered at the roar of the Sea God Guard Captain, the only mermaid who could carry a weapon in the Dragon King’s room.
“As of this time, I declare the human Leeha to be a water spirit and a member of the Undine clan!”
Waaaaaaaa—! Haha! Haha!
Haha! Haha!
‘No, wait a minute! What is this?
Oh, this one – this one has eyes, nose, and mouth, right?! “It’s not a slime, it’s something-”
Lee Ha looked at the eyes, nose, and mouth attached to something translucent wrapped around his arm and tried to pull it off, but couldn’t.
“His name is Jelapong. “Please take care of me in the future.”
So what on earth?!
Even as Drake patted Lee Ha on the shoulder and congratulated him, Lee Ha, who was the only one involved, had to stand there blankly, not knowing anything.
Even though he had not yet heard an explanation as to what the gelapong, whose name made Leeha so absurd, was, the corners of Leeha’s mouth slowly began to rise.
Obtained the legendary meta-water spirit: ‘Gelapon’.
Anyway, it was a satisfactory item just because of the legendary name alone.
Although I was wondering if this should be called an item.
***
[Kyuu, kyunguu!]
[Myungmyungmyun….]
[Quyunuu! Kyuukkyuu~?]
[Which… blah…]
Blaugrun was fluttering around and playing with Gelapong.
Gelapong, which has a more irregular shape than slime, sometimes expands on one side or suddenly contracts, forming a ball-like shape.
With each and every transformation, Blaugrun laughed as if he was dying of fun. Lee Ha pointed to them and asked.
“So, that’s the water spirit itself and some kind of armor?”
“I see. Even if you just wear it around your body, it will protect you.”
After the welcome party in the Dragon King’s room, Lee Ha was talking with Drake in a small separate room.
“And yet, when I give an order, it will separate into this… form and attack the enemy.”
“of course. Don’t you know the power of the water spirit? “With your power, there may be no need for Gelapong’s attack.”
“Hmm….”
If Drake boasts as close to a guarantee as possible, it must be true. But I still didn’t have much faith in it.
‘Meta-Water Spirit, is this a concept beyond the water spirit? No, a water spirit that recognized a water spirit? The item description looks like something out of a philosophy book, but the name is Gelapong again?! ‘I’m not kidding!’
However, it was clear that this was no ordinary item.
An item that can be worn without being restricted by the equipment part. Where else in the world can you find something like this?
Even if it is in armor form, if you take it off, it turns into an attack form?
‘Even though the legendary level is strange, there’s something very strange… It’s crazy, really. What on earth does it mean to change from that type of person to an aggressive type? ‘What can I know about this?’
‘Something’ located somewhere between a creature and an item.
Leeha looked at Gelapong, feeling fortunate that it at least had a name.
“But what about the attack power? Because it looks like a slime like that, I feel a bit trustworthy…”
“Slime? Hehe, don’t say that in front of Jelapong. Even if it looks like that, it is a water spirit with my father’s essence directly infused with it. “If I had been born as a mermaid, I would have been on par with Sibrim in an instant.”
essence!
Lee Ha’s eyes lit up at that word. It was said that Ki-jeong drank Drake’s essence and received achievements.
‘How much more the essence of the sea god? Hmm, but it’s a bit hard to suck that thing, right?’
When the opportunity arises, I decided to try licking it at least once, and asked Drake again if I had any questions.
“ah! But what did the Sea God say about the fire spirit? what is that?”
“I heard it from my father. A flaming bear and a soul mate.”
“yes. That’s right, but the brown bear is not a fire spirit. You must be mistaken-”
“No, that’s not it.”
“sure?”
The kid inherited the field boss ‘Brown Bear’.
