60. Crimson Magic Tower 3

“Everyone, wake up.”

Seunghyun Kang said with a smile.

“When did I say I wouldn’t make it? As soon as the smoke is removed, we will make a cure.”

“thank you! thank you!”

“I will do anything!”

The wizards shed tears and stood up.

“If you don’t get rid of the smoke anyway, the cure is useless.”

No matter how hard you try to take the medicine, if you drink the smoke, you’ll be doomed.

“Then I need to get rid of the smoke quickly...”

“How do I get rid of it?”

“If only I could use damn magic!”

“As expected, we have no choice but to drink. Let’s drink smoke!”

The wizards were full of motivation, but they didn’t know how to get rid of the smoke. So I decided to just drink it.

“Does Mr. Kang also have to get rid of them by drinking all the smoke? There seems to be no other way.”

“That would be fun, but it would take too long.”

Kang Seung-hyun checked the time with his Mana Watch. Wizards can get rid of it if they drink it hard, but it’s hard to drink it all in an hour.

“The smoke will destroy the potion shop before it is finished.”

Kang Seung-hyun called the magicians who were eager to drink smoke.

“You need a few ingredients to clear the smoke. It’s fortunate that this is a potion shop.”

“ingredient? Are you making potions?”

“yes. I will remove it with a potion.”

Neither knives nor magic can work against incense smoke, but potions do. However, it doesn’t work with any potions.

“Everyone, please scatter and find the ingredients I am talking about.”

Some of these are wizards who have learned to make potions. You should be able to find the potion ingredients without a detailed explanation.

“yes!”

“All right.”

Wizards scattered throughout the shop.

“Ho-jeong Kim, please find ingredients that look like this. It will be easier to find than you think.”

“okay.”

Kim Ho-jung did not know much about the potion ingredients, so he explained by drawing a simple picture.

“It’s convenient because it’s inside the potion shop.”

While the wizards went looking for ingredients, Kang Seung-hyun prepared to make a potion.

‘Ventilation is the best way to get rid of smoke, but ventilation is difficult under the circumstances.’

The Mage Tower uses magic to operate the ventilation system. Sending incense smoke will damage the ventilation system.

‘As expected, I have no choice but to get rid of it from here.’

Smoke cannot be caught by hand. It’s because he’s like a gas with an irregular shape.

‘In addition, the smoke from the incense burner melts the material made of magic.’

Ventilation would be the most convenient, but ventilation is currently impossible and cannot be held by hand.

‘Then, if there is no solution, then that is not the case.’

If it is difficult to remove because the shape is not constant, it is enough to change it to a shape that is easy to remove.

“Here you go! This is the silica powder you asked for!”

“I also found the dried sandvine roots.”

The wizards got the materials one by one and brought them.

“Give me everything.”

Kang Seung-hyeon put the ingredients in a pot and started to boil them. Stir well to mix the ingredients, bring to a boil, remove, and boil again.

“Here’s the material Mr. Kang asked for... Cough!”

Kim Ho-jeong coughed up a sticky liquid.

“Damn me too...”

Kim Ho-jeong is not without magic even though his numbers are low. Symptoms of inhalation of incense smoke began to appear.

“Seeing that Kim Ho-jeong, who has low magic power, is also showing signs of addiction to cinnamon smoke...”

The more magic power in the body, the faster the effect appears.

“It sounds like time is running out.”

Seeing that even Kim Ho-jung, who has little magical power, vomits up the remains of magical power, it seems that time is running out soon.

‘Because I don’t want my precious colleagues to become trash who can’t use a single skill.’

Kang Seung-hyeon poured the brewed potion into a potion bottle. It took some time, but the potion was completed.

“It would be nice to cool off once, but I can’t afford that... I’ll have to use it as it is.”

“Oh... but what are you going to do with it?”

Kim Ho-jung pointed to the finished potion and asked.

“It’s hard to get rid of the smoke, right?”

“yes. Because I can’t get my hands on it.”

“But with this you can clean it up by hand.”

“Follow me.”

Kim Ho-jung added with a growl. Kang Seung-hyun took the wizard to the store owner.

“I will pay for the repairs inside the shop, the repairs outside the shop, the cost of the potion material... and all of the damage compensation.”

The wizard bowed his head and apologized to the shopkeeper. Contrary to what it looks like, money is plentiful.

“Then, please clean up first...”

The inside of the store was a mess because of the mana remnants that people vomited.

“We will help too.”

“Isn’t it the same as we didn’t listen to Healer and made an accident...”

The other wizards also laughed awkwardly. I guess I’ll have to leave the rest to them.

“Let us leave quickly. The Mage Tower officials won’t be coming soon.”

The probation is over for now, but the Mage Tower will come to investigate this matter. It’s a little bit, but the walls and floor melted, so it must have been a mess.

“I don’t want to get caught and waste time, so I float quickly.”

“I’m hungry right now.... What should I eat?”

“well.”

“customer!”

As I was about to leave the store, the owner of the store spoke to me.

“Thanks to you, I live. thank you. If it wasn’t for Healer, I would have had to close the business for a while...”

“No. I should have stopped the wizard even by slapping him.”

Of course, if I had done that, I would have been upset in a different way.

This is why Kang Seung-hyun does not prevent the incident. Because once things don’t happen, people won’t believe what they say.

“I don’t know how to repay this...”

“I used the potion ingredients for free, so wouldn’t it be okay with that?”

Of course, the money is planned to be paid back by the master wizard instead.

“But... I’d like to give you something...”

The shopkeeper was very grateful and held out a scroll.

“All I can offer you is this. You may not need it... but please accept it.”

“thank you.”

Kang Seung-hyun received a scroll along with a greeting. When I left the store, Kim Ho-jeong, who was waiting for me, asked.

“What did you get? money?”

“It’s not money...”

Flutter!

Charlere!

Kang Seung-hyun unfolded the scroll he received.

“This is a potion recipe.”

“Making potions?”

The recipe written on the scroll is an ice potion recipe. Beginner potions are easy to obtain.

“It’s an ice potion recipe.”

“Oh... is that similar to a wind potion?”

Seunghyun Kang can make wind potion, one of the attribute potions.

“No, it’s a buff potion that grants attributes, and this is an offensive potion.”

Ice potion is a potion that inflicts ice damage.

“To get the cold buff, you have to use a cold potion.”

Cold potions do no damage when used, but ice potions do damage. That’s the difference between the two potions.

“Oh, the potion is too complicated.”

Kim Ho-jung shook his head.

‘If I use this, it will be easier to supply ice.’

Ice has many uses. Lowering the patient’s body temperature or reducing swelling.

“Unlike the wind potion, it’s nice to be able to use it for an attack.”

“That’s right. Now I can fire ice arrows!”

If you use ice potion, you can make your opponent ‘frozen’ or ‘frostbite’ with a certain probability.

“I need to get the ingredients soon and make a few bottles. It can be useful in any way.”

Kang Seung-hyeon put the ice potion making scroll in his inventory. Kim Ho-jeong, who had been watching Kang Seung-hyun from the side, opened her mouth.

“But you don’t look good. What’s wrong?”

“Actually, there’s something I’ve been worried about since a while ago.”

Seunghyun Kang twitched his chin.

The reason this incident happened is because the wizard put incense instead of water incense.

“Actually, the scented candle is...”

“Ugh...uhh... I found it!”

As I said this, a voice came from behind me.

“Healer Kang Seung-hyun! Tanker Kim Ho-jung!”

“Mr. Shuire?”

Looking back, there was a wizard I knew well standing there.
