CH 46

The next morning, after eating breakfast, I made dual potion (medium) by boiling berzin herb, delune fruit and irene herb together. I also made paruna antidote because I needed it to increase my petrification resistance so I also boiled berzin herb and mylene herb together after that. 

After that, I got on my wagon to go to Resta so I could go to the adventurers’ guild to report the subjugation of this hellhound I had defeated last night.

12:00

The guild’s bulletin had the request paper for subjugating the hellhound so I was able to receive 29 guild points and 2 gold coins as a reward. I had also defeated slimes and other small fries so in total I got 59 guild points. 

I had the hellhound dismantled. The hellhound could be dismantled into its fire pouch, claw, skin and meat. But the skin was already poisoned so it was inedible. I took the fire pouch and one of the claws since I could probably make something out of it. I sold the rest of the materials and got 7 gold coins out of it. 

By the way, I also showed the uncle in the dismantling shop some herb chicken eggs, since I had too much of it and the uncle agreed to buy it from me for his personal use. 

16:00

I bought some food and drinking water to replenish my stock and then I headed back home. 

17:30

After I arrived at home, I went to the blacksmith workshop and decided to challenge the ‘petrification powder’ once again. 

Ash was sitting next to me, looking at me with concern. 

It’s alright. I’m alright.  Now then… Here I go…

This time, I took twice the amount of powder than I had before. I licked it and….

CRACKLE CRACKLE CRACKLE

My skin became petrified at a slower rate than before but it still didn’t change the fact that my skin still got petrified due to licking the powder. I could also still feel my body temperature dropping rapidly.

“GYAHHHHHH!!!”

I drank the paruna antidote in haste and fell flat onto the ground. 

『Individual Name: Keigo Okuda has acquired Petrification Resistance level 3. 』

“Haah…. Haahh….”

I breathed heavily. With this, I already had the perfect countermeasure against the cockatrice.

On the other hand, Ash snorted, he looked like he was feeling exasperated.

By the time I fully returned to my senses, I realized it was already pretty late. I had some proper dinner before I went to sleep.
