Chapter 65: Tears of the Ice Snow [1]

Tears of the Ice Snow...

It was a liquor made from the essence of a thousand year ice.

Then what is the thousand year ice?

It's not just ice that has been frozen for a long time. Such is just ice without any energy.

The real thousand year ice is ice that has been filled with pure negative energy without receiving a single light or heat for a very long time.

Therefore, it could be said to be a rare treasure that only comes from very special terrains.

And coincidentally, those special terrains are all known to be within the territory of the Mayfield family.

There's even a saying that the Mayfield family staked their claim on this harsh land because of the thousand year ice, so no further explanation is necessary.

'But honestly, that's just a rumor. Who in their right mind would stake a claim here?'

Another name for the Mayfield family is 'the witch of the perpetual snow.'

In other words, they staked a claim in a place with such insane cold that the snow never melts all year round,It seems the founding family head was a bit touched in the head from studying magic too seriously.

Nevertheless, thanks to that, the descendants have enjoyed the benefits of the thousand year ice,

Yes.

Benifits.

The pure negative energy contained in the thousand year ice had the properties of purity and purification.

It's said that even a single drop in dirty and murky waste water would immediately make it clean enough to drink. Then what if a human drinks that essence?

The same.

It becomes clean.

'It's an elixir, an elixir.'

It's basic for humans here to accumulate impurities as they live. And those impurities hinder the flow of mana. Therefore, dealing with impurities was one of the important issues for many people who wanted to become stronger.

However, the general consensus was that it was basically impossible. Unless by a very special method. And there weren't many beings who could use that special method.

For example, prestigious martial or magical families with a long history and tradition.

They had their own ways to cleanse impurities. But it was a strict secret, and there was no way for outsiders to learn that method.

However, there was one exception. The method of the Mayfield family was very famous and well known.

Why?

Because they didn't particularly try to hide it.

Professor Karen answered without hesitation. Considering the level of the problem, this evaluation itself was something she had prepared with great care.

Solving such a problem meant, even in her high standards, it was naturally worthy of praise.

That's why she prepared the Tears of the Ice Snow as a prize.

"Guys, let's fight and get it!"

The leader of the Royal team shouted with full spirit. That guy's eyes had already turned.

I understand.

It would be stranger if one's eyes didn't turn in front of the Tears of the Ice Snow.

"Yeah, yeah. I'm definitely going to get it!"

Another team member responded. But the fighting spirit of those two had nothing to do with the result. The card that would actually determine the result.

Elaine was panicking.

"I can't drink alcohol."

Yes.

The Tears of the Ice Snow is alcohol. If you ask why such a precious essence is made into alcohol, Because it's the Mayfield family, that's the end of the conversation.

Naturally, being a family living in such a cold region, they became inseparable from alcohol.

And it's not just any alcohol. They like very strong alcohol, not considering anything below 50 degrees as alcohol.

To that extent, it's not an exaggeration to call them a family of heavy drinkers.

So much so that there's even a saying, 'Never brag about your alcohol tolerance in front of a Mayfield.'

Of course, Professor Karen was no exception. She was one of the best drinkers in the game. There's an event that occurs when you become close to her, a drinking event.

If you can hold out to some extent, you'll receive praise like 'You know how to drink.' and can appeal as a manly charm, not just a student. The problem is that holding out to that extent is terribly difficult.

Pouring vodka into a beer mug continuously, there's no way to endure it.

If you pass out, you get a message saying, 'Your physical condition has become extremely bad.' and a day is deleted.

For a game where every day is important, losing a whole day is a big deal.

'It's a frustrating event.'

Of course, after suffering continuously, I found a way. Before the drinking event, if you get the 'Leaf of Clarity' from a hidden quest, As an item that can detoxify almost any poison, it shows amazing effects in detoxifying alcohol.

'Well, that's not important right now..'.

I stopped reminiscing and returned to reality.
