Magic is Learned for Nothing – Episode 246

# 246

Pamper Your Skin 2

Dreyza, who had sent a magician’s soul to hell, returned to his room in a good mood.

The path he walked parted to both sides like the Red Sea.

Numerous magicians, apprentice magicians, and their servants fled at the mere sight of Dreyza’s face from afar.

The rumors about the kingdom’s 7th strongest, ‘Crazy Dreyza,’ were spreading like wildfire.

He was indeed one of the 7 strongest.

However, unflattering nicknames such as Evil-faced Monster, Reincarnated Devil, Hellish Visage, and Destruction Hair were also common. In fact, some weak-hearted apprentice magicians were fainting upon encountering Dreyza.

Especially, the gold teeth he showed when he smiled were considered particularly terrifying.

“I’m back.”

Dreyza opened the door and stepped inside.

“What are you doing?”

His thick eyebrows furrowed severely.

Lich Mamon was applying something to his master’s face. The pose was, to Dreyza, inappropriately intimate.

Was it really necessary for his master to lie on the Lich’s lap?

“Hey, look at this.”

Contrary to Dreyza’s thoughts, Legion’s voice was very bright.

Like a Sergeant Kim returning from a tour in hell and being promoted to Master Sergeant.

“What is it?”

“My skin.”

Legion pointed to his dark chin.

“Aren’t you just growing a beard? It’s about time.”

“Not that.”

“Then?”

“My skin color.”

“What about your skin color?”

Dreyza still hadn’t noticed.

“It’s getting whiter.”

“Your skin is getting whiter? Really?”

“Really, I’m telling you.”

Legion pointed to his skin again.

Come to think of it…….

The black people living on the westernmost continent are completely black. Except for their teeth and eyes, they are all black.

If you go a little further inland, they are not completely black. There seem to be mixed races. When you reach the central continent, they are only dark-skinned like dark elves, so it was difficult to definitively say they were black.

Legion used to be completely black.

“Oh, it’s true.”

Dreyza’s eyes widened. Legion’s skin color, which had appeared completely black, was gradually turning white.

“Right?”

“Yes, it is. Congratulations.”

Dreyza answered with sincerity. To be honest, he felt sorry for his master.

Dark Lord?

Becoming that didn’t bring much good. Only a lot of unnecessary problems were created in his daily life.

It’s summer.

A scorching hot summer.

Dreyza took off his protective suit because of the heat. The only crazy person who wears armor in hot weather exceeding 86 degrees Fahrenheit (30 degrees Celsius) was his master.

He sweats so much that people can’t even approach him.

The first thing you notice when he appears is the smell of sweat.

I can’t help but think that the inside of his armor is full of sweat.

Moreover, since his skin turned black, he hasn’t lowered his visor.

Tears well up in my eyes.

What good is being a great Dark Lord?

He’s an outcast.

What good is being incredibly strong?

People can’t even approach him because he smells.

That’s why Dreyza prays to Jushin [a made-up deity] when he sleeps for his master.

“Please let our master live like a human being.”

It seems that Jushin heard his heartfelt prayer. He finally found an item that could change his skin color.

“Finally…… finally…….”

Legion shed hot tears.

How hard it had been. How sad it had been. He was able to relieve his sorrow even a little.

Lich Mamon and Dreyza warmly embraced Legion.

Poor master of ours.

May you only walk on the flower path [a Korean idiom wishing someone happiness and good fortune].

Knock knock-

It was then. Someone knocked on the door. Everyone’s eyes turned to the door.

Creak-

The door opened, and a familiar face that they hadn’t seen in a long time appeared.

Dark Elf Natalie was standing in front of the door with a strange expression.

* * *

-Kuaaaaang (Just die already! How can a wyvern be so persistent)!

-You die first. I won’t eat you. So just die. I’m so tired.

It’s been 7 days since the wyvern appeared in Legion’s territory.

The two crazy beasts were still fighting. At first, the villagers were very surprised, but now they just accept it.

Unemployed people bought alcohol and sat near the monsters to watch.

It was no longer a novelty for the children. Whether they fought or not, no one cares.

The exclusive servants were the same.

“It’s boring. It’s boring. How long are they going to keep doing that?”

They started construction.

First, they built accommodation a little away from the mansion. They were planning to build an armory and then repair the mansion.

Fortunately, the mansion’s chef, Decarson, was nowhere to be seen. He had recently gotten married late in life.

His bride was 15 years younger than him.

They were currently on their honeymoon in the port city of Siem.

Why is it fortunate that Decarson is not there?

According to Silke, Decarson is not just a chef.

His skills are unknown.

But he has skills that should not be underestimated. He traveled all over the continent to obtain cooking ingredients: the Arctic, jungles, hell, the entrance to the Demon World, the Crimson Desert, etc. There was no place he hadn’t been.

Silke lowered his voice and told the exclusive servants.

“Do you know what his nickname is?”

“What is it?”

“Dragon Chef.”

“Dragon Chef?”

“That’s right.”

“Why?”

“Why? He’s said to have caught a dragon and made steak out of it!”

“Does that make sense? Who in the world catches a dragon and makes steak out of it?”

“Have you ever heard of the Dragon Chef legend?”

No.

It’s the first time they’ve ever heard of it. The very idea that there’s a crazy person who catches dragons and makes steak out of them doesn’t make sense.

“Do you believe that?”

“To be honest, I don’t believe it either.”

“Right?”

“But I can’t forget what Decarson said.”

“What did he say?”

“What did he say? Ah! The flesh of a dragon is softer than chicken. It’s the best product with the best taste. It’s the best product with nothing to throw away.”

“…….”

The exclusive servants closed their mouths. According to Silke, the strongest person in the territory was not Dreyza.

It’s Chef Decarson.

A Dragon Chef.

They shook their heads.

No matter how they thought about it, it didn’t make sense.

But they knew he wasn’t an ordinary person. They think he might be a higher-level expert than them.

If they had to guess, wouldn’t he be around 6th or 7th level? If he was that skilled, he could have stopped the two monsters.

Unfortunately, Decarson is on his honeymoon in the port city of Siem with his young wife.

I hope his honeymoon doesn’t turn into a divorce trip.

Tap tap-

Someone touched Bacon’s shoulder as he was carrying wood.

Bacon, feeling an intense sense of unease, quickly turned around. The wyvern, who had destroyed part of the thousand-year-old mansion while sleeping, was looking at him with very pitiful eyes.

“W-what?”

Bacon and the exclusive servants, surprised, stepped back.

They chanted spells as if they were about to attack at any moment. In fact, the identities of the wyverns have not yet been revealed.

Why did they come and start a fight?

They wanted to ask, but they couldn’t because of Teacher Sepia.

But the wyvern tried to approach first. The exclusive servants were inwardly nervous.

If that wyvern is as strong as Teacher Sepia, they will be in quite a bit of danger.

But the wyvern didn’t seem to have any intention of doing so.

Bibyeo Bibyeo looked at the exclusive servants with very pitiful eyes and asked.

-Do you have any leftover rice?

“Leftover rice?”

-As you can see, I haven’t eaten anything for a week. Because of those crazy guys.

Only then did Bacon and the exclusive servants feel a sense of camaraderie with Bibyeo Bibyeo. This guy feels the same way as us. We have to suffer because we serve crazy superiors.

“Let’s go. I’ll buy you a drink.”

-Really?

“Really. My name is Bacon. What should I call you?”

-My name is Bibyeo Bibyeo. It’s not something to be proud of, but I’m the second strongest warrior in the Wyvern tribe.”

“The first is that giant wyvern?”

-That’s right. But what the hell is that ogre? It’s the first time I’ve seen an ogre fighting on par with Nubyeo Nubyeo.”

“Amazing, isn’t it?”

-It’s amazing.

“Haa-! I can’t say he’s our teacher, but honestly…… he’s a crazy ogre who knows how to use magic. There’s just no answer. Ah, don’t tell him. So don’t worry about it. It’s good for your mental health.”

-Hmm.

Bibyeo Bibyeo nodded. He also didn’t want to be involved with Sepia and Nubyeo Nubyeo.

“Let’s go. Let’s go have a meal and a drink. Ah! I’d also like to hear why you came.”

The exclusive servants and Bibyeo Bibyeo left Sepia and Nubyeo Nubyeo to fight and headed to the village.

* * *

“It’s been a while.”

Natalie smiled like a fresh strawberry.

Unlike Estee Lauder [a reference to artificial beauty], which is like artificial seasoning, a natural fragrance wafted from her.

“Oh? Yeah, it’s been a while.”

“Are you going to keep standing here?”

“Ah, no. Come in.”

Natalie smiled and entered the room.

“The smell of men is strong.”

Dreyza and Lich Mamon bristled.

They wanted to say that it wasn’t their smell, but their master’s! But they didn’t say those words.

If even they said such things, he would be hurt. Let’s protect our master, even if it’s just us.

“But what brings you here? And how did you get in here?”

“They let me in when I said I came to find Baron Legion.”

“Me?”

“Yes.”

Natalie smiled again.

There is something she left out. She told the magicians guarding the entrance to the Magic Tower, ‘I came to see Baron Legion, whom Baseraba Bob greatly cherishes.’

“I see. But what brings you here? I was going to go to the Dark Elf village soon anyway.”

To take off his armor, he had to go to the Dark Elf village and meet Senka. Only Senka, who has mastered the legendary plastic surgery magic, can safely remove his armor.

Please.

Let’s go back to a normal body.

I don’t want to be a fat man weighing over 330 pounds (150 kilograms) anymore.

“That’s…….”

Natalie’s expression darkened slightly.

Looking at her expression, I felt uneasy for some reason.

Could it be…… that a situation is happening where I can’t take off my armor?

The thought alone was terrible.

Then I’ll catch all the dark elves and sell them off!

If I remain black by any chance…… I’m just going to leave for the western continent. I didn’t need the territory or anything.

I’ll have to live with the black people who live there.

While shouting Uga Uga!

“Why? What’s wrong?”

“I can’t bring myself to say it.”

Natalie sighed deeply.

What to do! What to do! It must be real!

Legion’s heart started beating like crazy. God of all the world! This shouldn’t happen. What am I supposed to do if I can’t take off my armor? I can’t even reach my butt properly because of the armor.

I want to be able to take care of my business comfortably!

Please let me take off my armor. Please. God of all the world!

“It’s my father’s letter. Read it.”

Natalie took out a letter from her bosom and handed it to Legion.

I didn’t tremble like this even when I fought the High Priest of Stone Head Church. The same was true when fighting the Dark Slime.

I’ve never been scared of fighting any enemy.

But now I was scared. I didn’t have the courage to read the letter.

Legion handed the letter to Dreyza.

“You read it.”
