Chapter 97-1: - Hospitalisation (3)

Chapter 97-1: - Hospitalisation (3)

*It looks like I can finally be discharged. I can even start attending classes right away.*

Baek Yu-Seol thought to himself.

When he regained consciousness, it had already been a staggering three days.

*Three days...?*

He couldn't help but feel a sense of disorientation. He had no idea that he had been sleeping for such a long time.

*Why?*

Initially, he thought he was just a little exhausted from the excessive activation of his skill, 'Breath of the Spirit.'

However, it seemed that his body had suffered more strain than he had anticipated.

Although numerous status messages were displayed, he couldn't muster the immediate mental clarity to check them.

Looking at the room filled with gifts piled high, Mayuseong wore an expression of perplexity and asked him, "Yu-Seol, how are we going to move all of this?"

In response, Baek Yu-Seol couldn't help but smirk.

"What's the big deal? They're all your gifts. I'll help you move them."

Confused, Mayuseong replied, "Huh? No, about half of them are addressed to you, aren't they?"

Startled by this revelation, he exclaimed, "What?"

It was hard to believe.

While Baek Yu-Seol had recently played pranks on his second-year seniors, he hadn't led a kind enough academy life to deserve receiving such an abundance of gifts.

He was even considered the ultimate outsider among outsiders.

However, as he carefully inspected each gift, it turned out that a significant portion of them was indeed intended for him.

He had never experienced receiving this many gifts, not even in his previous life.

After all, he wasn't a celebrity back then.

Suddenly, Baek Yu-Seols vision blurred.

While receiving gifts should have brought him joy and gratitude, he found himself faced with the daunting task of moving them all.

Lost in thought, Mayuseong and Baek Yu-Seol stared at the mound of gifts before the hospital room door swung open with a loud bang.

Eisel appeared, wearing an eager expression.

"I anticipated this, so I prepared a cart.

"A cart?"

Baek Yu-Seol inquired, puzzled by her statement.

Eisel responded, "I'm quite skilled at pulling carts since I used to do it on construction sites four years ago. They even nicknamed me 'Construction Cart Eisel!"

".....?"

Baek Yu-Seol couldn't help but wonder if that nickname was indeed related to her cart-pulling skills.

"Well then, let's get going!"

Eisel declared enthusiastically.

Eisel tightly clutched the gifts in her arms, her grip efficient despite her slender wrists.

Perhaps it was a result of her rough labor during her younger years, but her ability to carry the load seemed even more formidable than that of girls the same age.

"Give them all to me.

"But I'm stronger than you," Baek Yu-Seol retorted.

"Well, I have strong arms.

"Does that mean I have weak ones?"

"Um... There are moments it seems that way.

Eisel said with a peculiar glance. She then chuckled sarcastically, leaving him utterly perplexed about her intentions.

Nevertheless, thanks to Eisel, they managed to transport the gifts back to the dormitory with relative ease.

**[Blessing of Yeonhong Chunsamwol Lv.1]**

And thus, he had to complete the challenging "Favorability Quest" to obtain the Blessing of Yeonhong Chunsamwol.

It required significant time and effort, making it one of the toughest quests.

However, to his astonishment, he had received the blessing effortlessly, without even putting in any effort.

Moreover, the effects were astounding.

Mana Accumulation Retardation came with penalties, such as the inability to store mana, use magic, and a lifespan limited to twenty years.

However, it compensated for those drawbacks by providing enhanced senses, accelerated cognition, and other bonus attribute boosts.

This pattern applied to most special traits.

Traits without penalties had underwhelming effects, while those with significant benefits came with severe limitations, making them challenging to utilize.

But, the Blessing of Yeonhong Chunsamwol defied this trend by boasting legendary-level effects without any penalties.

"This must be the grandeur of the Twelve Gods...

Although Baek Yu-Seol had encountered this trait once in Aether World, it was still overwhelming to obtain it for real. He couldn't contain his joy.

"Grrrr...!"

He clenched his fist, punched the air, and even rolled on the floor.

Furthermore, with the trait level being only 1, he could expect even greater effects as the level increased in the future.

Finally, he realized why he had been hospitalized for three days.

It was because after defeating Maizen Tyren, while he was unconscious, the Blessing of Yeonhong Chunsamwol had been bestowed upon him.

It seemed that the blessing would have been too difficult for a frail human body to withstand.

In other words, the Blessing of Yeonhong Chunsamwol acknowledged him...

"... Could it be?"

Hastily, he opened the box containing his previously worn clothes, and as he took out the garments, a bead fell from the inner pocket.

**[Familiars heart]**

"Heh, heh..."

He never thought he would receive it since she adamantly refused, but now he even obtained this.

In other words, he could use it as payment to win over Celestia and... learn how to efficiently control Mana Accumulation Retardation and receive training in ancestral swordsmanship.

Amidst the overwhelming rewards pouring in, he couldn't contain my excitement.

[To the one who has unveiled a perfect story, the 'Constellation Project' promises a special additional reward."]**",
