Magic Is Learned For Nothing [EN]: Chapter 215

The Hour of Doom 2

The D-day has been set.

D-day is the day the Vampire Legion’s advance party sets out.

The advance party alone numbers 3,000. Three days after the advance party departs, the main force of 40,000 will follow.

They intend to leave the Arctic and destroy the kingdom closest to the Dusselph Mountains first.

Whether the kingdom is destroyed or not is irrelevant, but what matters is their territory, which is right below the Dusselph Mountains.

Even if everyone joins forces, it is impossible to stop an army of 40,000 vampires.

“Damn it! It’s getting so twisted.”

Just when things were starting to improve in the territory, such a misfortune suddenly appears! This is what they call a double whammy.

No matter how much he calculated, the chances of the territory being able to stop them were extremely slim.

In that context, the current situation might as well be heaven-sent.

What if he hadn’t gotten involved in this?

Either way, the Vampire Kingdom’s plans would have proceeded smoothly.

While he was getting Mandragora [a plant with roots resembling a human figure, often associated with magic] from the Magic Tower, the Vampire Legion would have started heading south, and he might have met his death without ever finding his handsome face.

Heaven helped him get a chance.

Legion decided to think that way.

-How generous of you. It’s a parade of hardship.

Shut up. It depends on how you think. This time will pass too.

-Alright, you’ve heard some words somewhere. But what are you going to do now? Only ten days left.

What else? I have to train.

-Train?

I’m going to eat a lot of the remaining jewels to create new skills and level up my skills!

-Not recommended. You’ve already mastered most of the skills. Don’t waste jewels. You need to create other skills, but judging by your luck, there’s a high chance of getting some weird skills.

Well, yeah… that’s right.

Legion nodded.

Iron Head, Helicobacter pylori [a type of bacteria that can infect the stomach], go away, etc. The passive skills are already annoying enough, but if something else comes out…

Still, don’t I need a new skill? How about trying each of the collected jewels?

-What are you talking about?

You know, the three you got from the Cyclops’ dungeon. And there are some you got from the Dragon Lair.

-Ahhh.

What do you think?

-I think it’s better to keep those.

Why?

-Too much dangerous magic is flowing out.

What the hell is it?

-I don’t know. One thing is certain.

What?

-It seems better to hold back on that mineral. It seems like you’ll be in great danger.

Does it look that dangerous?

-Very, very dangerous.

Stop using weird languages. You pro-American bastard!

-I’m sorry.

……

Never mind. Never mind. I have no choice but to blame my miserable fate.

Okay, let’s level up the kids first.

Legion decided to feel the pain of childbirth once again.

-Aren’t you enjoying the pain? Have you opened your eyes to that side?

No, I’m not!

The reason for giving birth to Crystals was because of the Treasure Hunters and Leadcoff.

He can’t sneak into the castle like the Treasure Hunters. He’ll get caught 100% at the gate. That’s why he needed someone to infiltrate the castle in his place.

The Treasure Hunter, who is specialized in thievery, was the best choice.

But the opponents are vampires.

If they encounter even a high-ranking noble vampire, they are in danger of being wiped out.

Before that-

He intends to increase the Treasure Hunters’ skills. Physical training is good, but there is a special medicine called Crystal.

Only I have to suffer.

Only I-

Damn it, it’s so unfair.

Draizher and the Hunters are getting a free ride.

Legion sincerely thought it was unfair. He vowed to get something more out of them.

* * *

Leadcoff, the members of the new Kyeolsa organization [likely refers to a secret society or a group of dedicated followers], and the Treasure Hunters hugged their pillows tightly and trembled.

The man had been doing that every night for days.

-Aaaaaaah! Aaaaaaaah! Stop! Stop!

It’s Sergeant Kim’s scream from hell.

It was like the sound an evil spirit makes when it consumes a human soul. All the maids and servants belonging to the secret hideout, unable to overcome their fear, ran away.

That’s how terrifying Legion’s screams were.

No one knows.

The beautiful sight of him doing his best to give birth to Crystals.

* * *

Legion looked at the Crystals placed on the table.

They are precious children born (?) after two days of effort.

Although it is not visible, Legion’s face was haggard. His legs were shaking so much that he couldn’t even stand.

Nevertheless, he brought the Crystals down to the dining room.

The group came to the dining room for breakfast. Everyone except Draizher looked gaunt. It was because they couldn’t sleep because of Legion’s screams.

They looked at Legion and bowed their heads.

“Did you sleep well?”

“Enough. Everyone sit down.”

Legion pointed to the table with his finger.

The eyes of Draizher and the Hunters, who knew the power of the Crystal, widened greatly.

It’s a Crystal!

“Some of you know what this is. And some vampires don’t.”

Legion said in a weak voice.

However, to those who heard it, Legion’s voice sounded like a beast growling lowly before hunting.

It’s scary.

“From now on, pay close attention and listen to me carefully.”

“Yes, sir.”

The group paid close attention and listened carefully to Legion’s words.

“There are only ten days left. We have to maximize our survival rate during those ten days. First, maximize individual abilities. Second, learn the internal structure of the palace thoroughly. Third, simulate non-stop with increased abilities. This will significantly increase our survival rate in a short period of time.”

Everyone nodded at Legion’s words. They agreed.

No one wanted to enter the palace and die.

“Let’s get out of here alive. Got it?”

“Yes, sir! Preacher!”

“Yes! Legion-nim!”

Leadcoff also knew Legion’s true identity.

It was impossible to hide it forever. She was a little disappointed that the iron-clad man was not the famous Death Butcher Don Deckman.

But when Jack Nicher said Crazy Draizher, her face lit up again.

Although she lives in the Arctic, she is not completely without information about the human world. Exchanges with a small number of human merchants have continued steadily.

Through them, or through information sent by a few informants who collect information from the human world, she had some understanding of how the world was turning.

Crazy Draizher.

He’s as crazy as the Death Butcher Don Deckman.

And he’s strong. Don Deckman has grown rapidly in recent years, but his reputation is by no means inferior to him.

First, Draizher received the Crystal.

He looked at Legion with a happy heart. There’s still one more Crystal left.

I know, you son of a bitch!

Draizher swallowed the precious Crystal.

-Legion-nim’s Crystal is being disassembled.

Draizher took a deep breath. There were no skills that had been useless so far. They were all skills necessary to increase stats. He thought it would be the same this time.

-Tring tring.

Oh! It started.

Draizher’s eyes widened.

* * *

Finally, the day has come.

Legion became a little faster with bone-shaving training. As his agility increased, he was able to avoid moving as slowly as a sloth.

Draizher became a little more handsome.

Before, if you looked at him from a distance, he was a murderer, and if you looked at him up close, he was a serial killer, but now, if you look at him from a distance, he is a violent criminal, and if you look at him up close, he is a murderer.

It’s strange.

Legion couldn’t understand why he suddenly changed like that.

The Treasure Hunters who will be deployed on the mission are also getting uglier these days. I wonder if there was a side effect of the Crystal.

They were already ugly, but they’re getting uglier.

I’m very worried about how they’re going to get married. They call me Preacher politely and act friendly.

Legion doesn’t hate them either.

It’s just that they’re too ugly. Come to think of it, everyone around me is ugly.

It’s sad. Suddenly, his cousin Xenon came to mind.

I’m sure he’s having children and living well. I hated seeing him so much that I sent him to marry an Orc, but now I’m a little jealous. Because he got a pretty wife, had rabbit-like children, and is living well.

He seemed very happy.

Yes, it must be thanks to his pretty wife. They say that if your wife is pretty, you bow to the main pillar of your wife’s house [a Korean saying meaning you benefit from your wife’s family], and that must be the feeling.

Legion shook his head.

But… it’s strange. Since when did Amadeus become a super beauty? I remember her as a very muscular Orc female warrior. Why is she now imprinted as a super beauty with a halo shining brightly?

Legion had already forgotten that there was an effect on the skill.

The skill’s power was getting stronger over time.

-Ah, this is really a big deal.

Mark’s worries were also growing.

In the future, there will be a legendary episode in which he tries to have a cup of tea with Monsenger, the Hell Queen who was resurrected from hell, which throws his subordinates’ mental world into chaos.

Sharonz is…

She became as ugly as a witch from hell.

If the Hunters felt that the plastic surgery magic was a little wrong, Sharonz seemed like she needed to have another surgery.

No way!

Could the Crystal have changed her appearance like that?

Ah, I feel a little sorry.

Somehow, Sharonz seemed to be depressed. I felt like it was because of me, so I couldn’t sleep well. I felt sorry, so I woke up in the middle of the night and went to see her.

“Wh-what is it?”

Sharonz, startled, looked at Legion with fearful eyes.

“Come out. We have to do it now.”

Sharonz cried, “Please, let me go now.”

Legion shook his head.

He wanted to train her and make her stronger.

Legion lowered his face shield. Legion’s perfect jaw was revealed. She got up from her seat as if drawn to something.

It must have been about five times.

That Sharonz was knocked out.

I think she’s still a great woman. Nevertheless, Sharonz still challenges me, saying things I don’t understand.

“I’m crazy. I’m crazy. Why am I doing things that I’ll get hit for!”

Sharonz glared at Legion with eyes mixed with hatred and affection. Her eyes were very mentally unstable.

The more this happens, the more I have to push her. So that she can’t even think of anything else!

It’s all my fault that her appearance has become ugly.

I think I’ll have to do my best to give birth to Crystals. One or two is not enough.

To fix her ruined appearance, I need at least six Crystals.

When this is over, I have to collect Crystals for Sharonz no matter what.

Only Legion doesn’t know.

Every time Sharonz walked, a tremendous halo emanated from her.

She was praised as the most beautiful woman in vampire history.

The Hunters also belong to the category of considerable beauties. That’s why they’ve never envied anyone’s appearance until now.

But this time is different.

They sincerely envied Sharonz as they looked at her.

Sharonz has an overwhelming appearance that cannot be compared to anyone.

Wouldn’t that be what it would look like if a god from heaven descended?

Only Legion was groaning with guilt as he looked at Sharonz’s appearance.

“Is everyone here?”

Legion asked, looking at his group.

Leadcoff and 45 members of the new Kyeolsa organization. Most of the vampires gather in the square to prepare for the expedition, so it would not be easy to catch them.

Five large-caliber cannon Treasure Hunters.

They will be carrying out the core mission.

They have to get hold of Spielberg and Wednesday’s weaknesses and reveal them.

That means they have to approach them at close range. Wednesday is the bishop of the Stone Head Church. He won’t be an ordinary vampire.

So I gave them special attention.

“Don’t overdo it and die, just do it gently and die halfway.”

Legion and Draizher will be deployed in this battle. It was a mission to block the attacks of numerous vampires with their bodies.

Since he’s slow anyway and can’t do guerrilla warfare or infiltration, he thought he should at least be a meat shield.

“A magician has to be a meat shield…”

Legion was in tears.

Sharonz was excluded from this mission for other reasons. Everyone looked at Legion with determined eyes.

“Okay. Let’s meet alive. Everyone, depart.”

At Legion’s words, everyone disappeared from sight in an instant. It was amazing agility.

“Let’s go.”

Legion said, looking at Draizher.

Clang clang.

Even though he increased his agility for ten days, he’s still terribly slow.

“I’ve called a carriage. Let’s go in that.”

Draizher gave up. It seemed impossible to see an agile Legion unless he took off that armor.
