Magic Is Learned For Nothing [EN]: Chapter 92

Magic is Useless- Episode 92 (92/502)

# 92

The Day Arrives (1)

“Wow, how many kilograms is this?”

-Approximately 92 kilograms.

“Seriously, how can a staff weigh 92 kilograms?”

Legion’s strength is quite good. It’s thanks to his constant training to lose weight. Even so, it was difficult for him to lift the staff with one hand.

He could easily do it with magic, but who would use magic to lift a staff?

That would be insane.

The staff is for enhancing magic, not for depleting it.

Reluctantly, Legion held the staff with both hands.

This will be a good workout.

Legion shook it up and down like he was doing dumbbell exercises with both hands.

Oh, it really works out. I can feel the strength in my biceps.

“Um, that’s for display, sir.”

“For display?”

“Yes, the options are certain… but as you can see, the weight is absurd. The trend with the latest staves is to make them as light as possible. Even 100 grams lighter can make a difference of over 100 gold. Staves under 1 kilogram are priceless.”

“Who made this?”

“Not a famous blacksmith.”

“I’m just curious.”

“Someone named Bidet.”

“Bidet?”

“Yes.”

“Originally, he was a blacksmith who made toilets for nobles. Or there were rumors that he made bathhouses. I don’t think he’s a blacksmith who specializes in making staves. But it’s such a unique item that we decided to keep one.”

“What are the options?”

“20 percent increase in attack power.”

Oooooh~ That’s amazing.

Legion almost whistled without realizing it. He originally has higher defense than attack power because of his fat.

It unintentionally turned out that way.

Of course, his attack power is lacking. He can use ancient magic now, but once the ‘Exploding Coolness’ skill disappears, that’s goodbye.

“Then what’s the point? It’s not for magic, it’s an option that applies when you hit with it.”

“…….”

If that’s the case, they should just call it a mace instead of a staff. Warriors would love it.

In any case, it’s a pretty good item for Legion.

“In addition, I heard it has a mind option called ‘Grit’.”

“Grit? What’s that?”

“The boss said it means you don’t flinch when you get hit.”

Huh? What is that supposed to mean?

“Like when you’re surrounded by thugs?”

A mage surrounded by thugs? It seems like that would never happen, even if the sky fell.

“It gives you the courage to glare at them with your eyes wide open when thugs hit you.”

“Wouldn’t you just get hit more if you talk back?”

“That’s their fate. Anyway, that’s what they call Grit.”

Not a very good option.

Still, a 20 percent increase in attack power is a pretty good option. That alone makes it worth buying.

Hehehehe.

“How much is this?”

“You’re going to buy it?”

The female employee widened her eyes in surprise.

There have been several knights who drooled over the options on that staff. Knights, not mages. But they all shook their heads. It’s an impossible staff to use. The knights tried several times before turning away with tears in their eyes.

“Yes.”

Legion nodded.

“Um, it’s originally 100 gold… but just give me 80 gold.”

“It says 20 percent off outside.”

“…….”

The female employee’s eyes twitched slightly. She must have been trying to take credit for the 80 gold price.

You sly fox.

I thought she was smitten with my handsome looks, but she’s ruthless when it comes to money. If I hadn’t mentioned the 20 percent discount, she would have pretended not to know until the end.

“I’m sorry. I was mistaken. Then it’s 64 gold.”

Oh! He got a staff that increases attack power by 20 percent for 64 gold. This is quite a steal.

“Okay. I’ll take it.”

Legion smiled brightly and opened his leather wallet full of money.

And as he paid, his head started ringing.

-Tring tring.

You have obtained a Grade A attack power staff with Grade D usability.

Brawling ability has increased.

The ‘Dogpile’ skill effect is triggered during beatings. It hurts twice as much.

Hitting with the staff will quickly break the opponent’s ‘will’.

Using the staff for a long time will increase strength. As strength increases, punching with your fist will have the same effect as hitting with the staff.

It is recommended to use the staff with an Iron Head. You can now serve the role of two carpenters.

…….

Legion was speechless.

What is this?

Is this a staff?

Dreyzaire came out of the department store.

The master is currently captivated by the splendor of the department store and is completely out of it. He might just shop all day.

Well, when would our country lord have ever seen such amazing things?

In the meantime, he plans to stop by the information guild to take care of some business.

Why is the information guild called the information guild?

It’s the information guild because they can find out information. If they can’t find out information, what kind of information guild is that? Such an information guild deserves to disappear from the world.

Because it’s worthless as an information guild!

Dreyzaire arrived in front of the ‘Sunshine’ entertainment bar, which is disguised as an information guild.

It’s still thriving today.

Young men were milling around in front of the bar. They seemed to be wondering whether to go in or not.

Their eyes were full of curiosity.

Dreyzaire chuckled and went inside Sunshine.

“Welcome… Eek!”

The employee greeted Dreyzaire and then screamed.

If they don’t remember Dreyzaire, they should leave this business.

He covered his mouth with both hands and bowed as politely as possible at a 90-degree angle.

“Welcome, Dreyzaire-nim.”

“Where’s Oman?”

“Pardon?”

“Your boss.”

“Ah, you mean Emon-sajang [Emon, the boss].”

“Was the boss’s name Emon? Sorry, sorry. I keep forgetting things these days. So, is that Oman guy here now?”

“Yes, he is. Please wait a moment. I’ll go get the boss right away.”

This was something that would have been unimaginable under normal circumstances.

Bringing the boss.

But anyone who belonged to the information guild knew it. The man in front of them was someone you shouldn’t mess with, or you’d get covered in shit. Keeping him happy is the way to live long.

The employee ran into the bar so fast that their feet couldn’t be seen.

“Is this it?”

Dreyzaire looked over the booklet in his hand.

Look at the title. How childish.

“It Was Easiest to Become a Dragon Slayer?”

“Yes, that’s right. It’s a really hard book to find.”

“How old is it?”

“It has been confirmed to be a book from about 400 years ago.”

He had already appraised it. It was over 400 years old. Its rarity was beyond words.

The only downside is that the book has no author.

If there was an author, its value would be more expensive than the highest grade minerals. If the author was a famous person, its value would be unimaginable.

But the author of this book was not written anywhere.

Only an initial was written on the last booklet.

A-.

It was an initial accompanied by an ominous feeling.

But now was not the time to be picky.

Dreyzaire would have the information guild destroyed if he didn’t come up with a way to catch the dragon.

He could only be grateful to Baron Legion for simply throwing this book at him.

Of course, obtaining the detailed blueprints of Count Persimmon’s mansion that he requested was also a difficult task.

Count Persimmon’s mansion is so large that it resembles a palace. It is known to have 99 rooms.

The territory residents who directly toured Count Persimmon’s mansion at this coming-of-age ceremony were so captivated by its beauty that they couldn’t take their eyes off it.

Finding out the entire structure of such a huge mansion was virtually impossible.

So, here the problem gets complicated.

He failed to obtain the mansion’s blueprints. He has to return the book. The book is already in Dreyzaire’s hands. They ask for the book back. He gets beaten up badly. Of course, he can’t get the book back.

Baron Legion comes.

He can’t hand over the mansion structure. He gets beaten up badly. He loses credibility. He gets kicked out of this business.

That couldn’t happen.

Now that he’s taken a breather, he had to obtain the blueprints of Count Persimmon’s mansion by any means possible.

“But it doesn’t say who the author of this book is.”

Emon frowned. Damn it, the bear-like guy is incredibly perceptive. Well, that’s why he’s ranked as one of the kingdom’s top seven powerhouses.

People beyond imagination.

They were the kingdom’s top seven powerhouses.

The monsters who could destroy a city on their own if they wanted to were them.

“There’s something on the last page…”

“Is the author’s name on the last page?”

“No, just the initials.”

“Just the initials?”

Dreyzaire opened the last page of the book.

The initial A. Next to it was a handwritten note that said, ‘Missing you’.

“No, does ‘Dragon Slayer’ and ‘Missing you’ even match?”

Dreyzaire asked Emon as if he didn’t understand.

“Well, I don’t know either…”

Emon bowed his head, dripping sweat from his forehead.

He ran around in all directions to find out about this book. But he couldn’t find any similar books.

There wasn’t even a legend passed down by word of mouth.

“Since there’s no answer… this book might be fake.”

It’s a matter that deserves enough suspicion.

“I thought so too… but the verification is already complete. It’s an ancient book that’s over 400 years old. I think the possibility of such an ancient book being fake is very low.”

“Really?”

“Yes.”

Dreyzaire opened the book. If he was a powerhouse like himself, he could judge whether this book was real or fake just by looking at the first chapter.

-Dragon Slayer Illusionary Meaning. First Chapter of the Sky.

The moment he opened the book!

Dreyzaire felt like he had been struck by lightning.

This is real!

It was a book with a depth that even he could not dare to approach. Each picture was drawn as if worshiping a god.

Finally!

Finally!

If he masters this, he will be able to catch that crazy Red Dragon Preitia.

He will never make the same mistake as last time.

Dreyzaire jumped up from his seat. His fierce face was flushed red. His fierce face looks like a demon.

Emon couldn’t bear to look at his face and bowed deeply.

“Good job. I’m leaving.”

Dreyzaire went up the stairs with a thud.

He disappeared from Emon’s sight in an instant.

“Hoo.”

Emon let out a long sigh. It was truly the worst time of his life.

“Now there’s only one left.”

“What else is left?”

A subordinate asked.

“Are you an idiot? What else could it be? An S-class difficulty mission.”

“Ah.”

“What ‘ah’? Send 10 more people to infiltrate the Count’s family. If you can’t get the mansion’s blueprints within a few days, all of us will be sold into slavery.”

“Pardon? Slavery?”

“Damn it, that… uh…”

The lich who tortured him came to mind. When he thought of the lich’s hideous face, his legs trembled without him realizing it.

“That… uh… what? What are you trying to say?”

“If we can’t get the blueprints, we’ll all be dragged to the mine as slaves.”

“What?”

The subordinate looked at Emon with disbelief. It was a look of disbelief that he would go that far.

“If you don’t believe me… try failing once. Then it will become clear whether you will be dragged to the mine or not.”

The subordinate’s spine tingled.

It seemed that if he didn’t run for his life, an unimaginable disaster would befall the guild.
