548 Legend of the King of Hearts (3)

* * *

“Oh, in the middle of this dense forest...! ”

A spiritual sanctuary full of scruffy trees.

After a 10-minute walk along the narrow road I was in, Ian found a small village hidden in the forest.

The name 'pneuma’ was written on the sign of the village entrance.

‘Maybe the town's name is Pneuma. ’

Ian starts looking around the town.

The town of Pneuma was much smaller than ‘Tanatos' in the famous Erebos.

But I felt like everything was there.

‘Is there any other currency in this town other than gold? ’

In Tanatos, all transactions consisted of Death Coins, the currency of the system.

Ian assumed that there would be other currencies here as well, in the spirit world.

And the prediction was right.

- Spirit's Stamp/Entrance fee: 500 Aster

A small hut in one corner of the town.

Ian sees the sign adhering to the entrance, muttering to himself.

‘The Astor must be the currency here. What the hell is that place doing, anyway? Is there an admission fee? ’

Once he folded his curiosity for a moment, Ian opened the door to another hut next door.

On top of Ian's door, a small piece of writing was written:

- Magic shop.

* * *

Pneumar Village is located to the west of the Holy Place of Spirits.

On the other hand, in order to proceed with the quest you received from Charlon, you must go through the gate north of the Sanctuary to 'Mount Spirit’.

Then, why did Ian come to a village far away first?

‘I wish I had a decent spirit of fire magic……. ’

It was because I wanted to raise Agby a little sooner.

You need to learn Spirit of Flame magic and use it as much as possible to replenish Agby's spirit power faster.

Of course, even the Summoner Tower in the human world can get Fire Spirit magic.

However, most of the spirit magic available in the Summoner's Tower was only of rare grade.

Sometimes even heroes and legendary titles appear, but there is no guarantee that it is magic to suit Ian's taste.

In the meantime, I heard about Pneumatic Village from Charlon, and I couldn't help but come.

The spiritual magic sold in the village in the Spirit Realm must be much better than the magic sold in the Summoner Tower.

“Oh, it's been a long time since I've seen a human guest. ”

“Hello."

“Yes, what do you need? ”

An old dwarf sitting inside a magic shop said.

- Magic Trader: Harnew

Seeing an old man who looked similar to Charlon, Ian muttered to himself.

"Is there a special tribe with horns like that on their heads? ’

But his curiosity wasn't that important now, so Ian said something.

“Do you have any idea... Can we sell it? ”

The items that Ian grumbled and pulled out were essences of various attributes.

It was because we didn't need to do it right away except for the fire and electrocution properties of the essences obtained by defeating the Contaminated Spirits.

And the old dwarf, who had checked the mountain essences on the table, answered with his eyes wide open.

“No, of course not. Where did you get all these essences? ”

“I got it from the Contaminated Spirits on the Plain of Wind. ”

“Th-that's it. ”

The essences that Ian took out were mostly the lowest essences.

It was a very common item, but there was a lot of it.

Harnew, the magical merchant, was astonished by the sheep.

“The lowest essence is 3 Asters. I'll give you 30 Asters of Lesser Essence. How much do you intend to sell? ”

With Harnew's question, Ian answered without hesitation.

“I'll sell everything. ”

“Got it. Hold on a second. ”

Harnew took a giant sack and collected all the essences, and soon a new system message appeared in Ian's eyes.

- Tyring!

- You sold twenty-seven "Bottom Water Essence" items to earn an "81 Aster".

- You sold 19 ‘Bottom Wind Essence’ items to earn ‘57 Aster’.

…… approximate……

- You sold 4 ‘Lesser Abyssal Essences’ items to earn ‘120 Aster’.

After selling all of the hundreds of essences, Ian's inventory was stocked with plenty of Aster.

‘Let's see……. I've earned 1,500 Asters. ’

Ian scratches his back head.

It was because we still didn't know the value of the money called 'Aster'.

“Don't you have anything else to sell, young man? ”

“That's right.”

“Good. Next time you collect essences, bring them to me and sell them. ”

“Yes, Harnew. ”

Ian, who had roughly sorted out his inventory, opened his mouth again to Harne.

“Hey, Harnew. ”

“Speak.”

“Do you sell Spirit Wizards? ”

In Ian's question, Harne nods and answers.

“Of course. What magic do you need, my friend?" ”

“I want to get the spirit magic of the Flame Property. ”

“Flame attributes.... Just a moment.”

Harnew, stumbling across the bookshelf in the corner of the store, pulled out several books using the ladder.

They were then placed on Ian's front table.

“Now, this is all I have. ”

“May I take a look? ”

“Of course. Take your time. ”

With a loving smile on his face, Hargne sits facedown in a chair, and Ian begins to look at the grimoires one by one.

Every time Ian opened the grimoire, information and prices about the grimoire came to his attention.

-Name: Flame Explosion, Grade: Rare (Superior), Price: 520 Aster

-Name: Flamethrower, Grade: Normal (transcendent), Price: 195 Aster

…… approximate……

-Name: Time of Inferno, Grade: Rare (Superior), Price: 575 Aster

-Name: Lava Land, Grade: Only (transcendent), Price: 1355 Aster

Sorcery books of flames, about the size of a total heat.

And the first thing Ian began to read was the last Lava Land enchantment.

It was because the land magic grade of lava was the highest.

Let me guess, widespread fire magic, 450 coefficients? As expected, it's much more obedient than the magic you can live in a tower. ’

The ‘land of lava’ magic was generally satisfactory.

The mechanism of the skill itself is ordinary wide-area magic, but the attack coefficient that determines the power was quite high.

It was almost twice as strong as Ian's Hero grade spirit magic, the coefficient of current expansion.

‘But first, let's read some other magic, shall we? ’

Ian starts with a flame explosion, and then he reads the other spiritual spells in turn.

After a while, there was an interesting light in Ian's eyes.

"Wow."

Ian's grimoire was a rare (transcendent) class of magic, the ’Flame of Hell'.

- Fire in Hell.

Category: Active Skill

Skill Level: Lv.0

Skill Rank: Rare (Superior)

Skill: 0%

Consumption Value: 100 Spirit Magic Power (Exceeded)

Cooldown: 100 sec

Use the power of the Spirit of Flame to summon the Burning Longbow.

Grab the handle of a summoned longbow to automatically generate an arrow that deals 40 percent fire property damage when hit by an enemy.

Enemies hit by an arrow receive a ‘Fire of Hell’ flag for 10 seconds, dealing 4% of their summoning damage per second.

* As soon as the arrows leave the archery, new arrows will reload. (Up to 20 rounds.)

* When at least one arrow misses or 20 arrows are depleted, the Summon of the Burning Longbow will be released.

* Flags overlap up to 10 times, triggering a powerful explosion when stacked to the maximum before disappearing.

(When a flag explodes, the stacked markers cause all damage for the remaining duration.)

(When the flag explodes, the cooldown for the magic 'In the Flame of Hell’ is reset.)

* Skill Acquisition Requirement: Only available when you have learned the Passive Skill 'Spirit of Flame Summoning'.

* Skill Activation Condition: Skill can only be activated when the Fire Spirit is summoned.

* Growth magic. When the conditions are met, it can evolve into a parent spell.

Kailan's skills are more likely to be complex with higher grade skills.

The more advanced the skill, the more difficult it is to use.

However, the skills that Ian now discovered were much more sophisticated and complex than the only (transcendent) grade, despite being a rare (transcendent) grade.

‘Growth magic……. Is this an option? ’

Ian's eyes sparkled.

It is because the option 'Growth Magic’ felt like an ‘Evolvable’ option of the summoned number.

‘It's a rare grade, so the coefficient is definitely low.... ’

The magical attack coefficient for the Fire of Hell is less than 10 percent of the magical Lava Land.

Even given the lasting deals on the markings, it takes six arrows to achieve a better power than the land of lava.

Moreover, the land of lava is a vast skill.

From here on out, 'Flame of Hell' is not a good skill.

No, it wasn't a bad level, it was the worst skill.

‘Unless the auxiliary options are contiguous. ’

As I read down the additional options, Ian's tail dries up.

Every feature of the options was attractive.

The first option shot Ian's taste.

If you keep hitting it, you can fire up to 20 shots at the first trigger of the spell. ’

With the assumption that the accuracy is 100 percent, there's a ridiculous bombing possibility.

Moreover, if you fire ten arrows in 10 seconds and hit them all, a third addition option will be triggered.

Resets the cooldown time for skills at the same time that all flags explode…….

‘This is it. This is it! ’

It is truly a skill that can give you the power of a thousand different kinds depending on your skills.

To put it simply, this‘ Flame of Hell 'skill is used by users with poor archery skills, which does not even count as 100 percent.

On the other hand, if you show the theoretically possible ‘Ypkhailan’ play, this skill can produce up to several thousand percent of the coefficients.

Besides, Ian had a friend who could make this skill even more powerful.

‘Agby! This is a skill really made for me and for him. ’

Ian's Spirit, Agby's first unique ability, the Devil of Fire.

With this ability, the speed at which the markings are stacked will be doubled.

I'm going hunting right now! ’

Ian, who painted all the paintings in his head, flashed his grimoire and called Harne.

“Harnew, I'll take that! ”

A new and powerful Spirit Agree.

The best spirit magic that can perfectly synergize with him.

Ian's excited heart rate began to accelerate.
