Raided The God’S Warehouse [EN]: Chapter 38

38. Creating the Third Mana Circle

Even Seun was taken by surprise.

He was, after all, only about halfway through the second chapter of the tutorial.

Considering that even the most talented mages barely reach the level of a 2nd Circle Master by the end of the tutorial, this was likely unprecedented in the Tower’s history.

As if to confirm it:

-You have set a new record in the history of the Tower.

-You have achieved an unbelievably amazing feat.

-You have gained 100,000 points as a reward.

A brilliant system message appeared before Seun’s eyes.

One hundred thousand points. This was half the total contribution points Seun had accumulated so far.

-Numerous constellations related to magic are taking an interest in you.

-The constellation, ‘The Bowed Crow,’ has blocked all communication from constellations of lower status than itself.

Unsurprisingly, constellations interested in Seun’s magical talent focused their attention on him. Ordinarily, most communication would be blocked by Mammon’s treasure.

However, this time was different.

-The constellation, ‘The Fifth Day,’ is watching you with a beautiful smile.

A being whose communication could not be blocked by Mammon’s power or treasures.

The constellation, The Fifth Day.

The leader of the Valkyries, a warrior who serves Odin, and a witch of such great skill that she taught Odin magic.

The appearance of Freya, the goddess of love and beauty.

‘To attract the attention of a chief god-level constellation already?’

Freya is one of the chief gods who rule Asgard alongside Odin.

As such, her status was by no means inferior to that of Mammon, the Demon God of Greed.

Normally, attention from constellations of this caliber comes to players who have proven their talent and skill by the end of the tutorial.

No, even then, only a select few are said to receive the choice of a chief god-level constellation.

Such a constellation was now interfering with Seun in the second chapter of the tutorial, breaking through Mammon’s interference.

-The constellation, ‘The Bowed Crow,’ points its sharp beak at Valhalla, asking what this is all about.

-The constellation, ‘The Fifth Day,’ ignores the interference of other constellations with an inscrutable smile.

‘Well, Freya’s magical skill is top-notch among all the gods.’

It was only natural for her to be interested in Seun, who had unlocked the third circle in the tutorial.

However, he was a little worried because of the presence of the two Demon Gods already watching Seun.

Fortunately, she only watched Seun with silence and a smile, showing no interference whatsoever.

-The constellation, ‘The Bowed Crow,’ warns that it will not tolerate anyone touching what belongs to it.

-The constellation, ‘The Fifth Day,’ continues to ignore the interference of other constellations.

-The feathers of the constellation, ‘The Bowed Crow,’ tremble.

A conflict between a chief god-level good deity and an evil deity.

Seun, watching, felt dizzy.

‘Still, it’s a relief that the opponent is Freya.’

With her gentle personality, Freya would not deliberately create discord.

If it were another god, they might have reacted to Mammon’s attitude in some way.

‘Well, does it matter?’

But nothing would change just because Freya was watching. Seun would just have to continue to grow by finding the hidden pieces of the tutorial, as he had been doing.

Besides, to prevent the God-Demon War, it was necessary to be on good terms with not only the evil god faction like Mammon but also the good deities like Freya.

Seun, who lightly rotated the newly created third circle, turned his body. He had obtained everything he could from the goblin village, so he was thinking of returning to the others.

However, he felt a small presence amidst the still-burning village. Not just one or two, but about ten presences.

He could have immediately grabbed his weapon, but Seun didn’t. After all, these were the people Seun had saved.

“The, the village…….”

“How did he do that?”

“He’s over there!”

The people who had been trapped in the village prison. Seun had skillfully placed mana stones in the prison so as not to damage it.

However, even if the explosion didn’t directly affect them, there could have been injuries if they were unlucky. Fortunately, everyone seemed to be fine, except for some slightly scorched skin.

“Thank you so much!”

“I will never forget this favor!”

“Sob, I really thought… sob, I was going to be goblin food. I, really… sob! Thank you!”

The people expressed their gratitude to Seun.

At this moment, Seun fell into deep thought.

‘Should I take them with me?’

He had ended up saving them, but Seun was not a hero.

Just as he had treated the people at the camp after his regression, he had no intention of taking responsibility for them.

But to leave them behind would be the same as killing them again.

As he pondered, a man who appeared to be the leader of the group stepped forward.

“I know what you’re worried about. We have no intention of holding you back, our benefactor. From now on, we will try to reach our destination on our own.”

The man’s expression was firm. The others also had a look of deep resolve in their eyes, though some anxiety was visible.

Anyone else might have clung to Seun, demanding he provide for them after saving them, but these people had accepted the tutorial and were determined to survive.

‘Well, they must all be survivors who have passed through the first chapter of the tutorial.’

Having passed through the first chapter of the tutorial, their skills would all be guaranteed.

Thanks to their eyes, Seun’s endlessly negative thoughts were tinged with positivity.

“I have no intention of protecting you. If you follow me, you will have to be even more determined than you are now.”

“……!”

“You’ll have to move quickly to close the distance. You’ll have to walk for at least half a day without rest, so I hope you’ll cheer up.”

“Th, thank you!”

“Thank you so much!”

Seun took out some of the food the goblins had been storing in his subspace pocket [an inventory system] and handed it to the people.

Before long, all traces of life had completely disappeared from the burning goblin village.

* * *

Meanwhile, Seun’s companions were following Yuseo-ah’s instructions and moving forward along the system’s guidance.

Park Jung-pil actively scouted on his skeleton, and since no monsters had appeared after the goblins, there were no obstacles to the march.

In the meantime, Yuseo-ah approached the wagon at the rear and spoke to Kang Han-cheol.

“Are you okay? If it’s too hard, we can take a break or we can all push together…….”

“This is also training. No problem.”

“You’ve gotten incredibly strong. Oh, of course, Han-cheol was strong from the start.”

“You’ve gotten stronger too. And it’s nothing compared to Seun.”

“Seun… well, it feels like he’s untouchable.”

Kang Han-cheol was pulling the wagon in place of the skeleton.

One skeleton was being controlled by Baek Hyeon, and the other was being moved by Seun’s mana.

Therefore, not long after Seun chased after the goblins, Seun’s skeleton lost power and collapsed, and Kang Han-cheol was taking its place.

Well, Kang Han-cheol was the only one among the people who could pull the wagon alone.

Besides, he volunteered to pull the wagon, saying that his body was itching to do something.

His words about training were not a lie.

-The constellation, ‘Old Man Riding an Alligator,’ instructs the contractor to put more strength into each step.

In fact, he was moving his body according to the constellation’s instructions.

Perhaps because of this, the places where Kang Han-cheol stepped were deeply imprinted with his footprints, showing off his presence.

“Do you think Seun is okay?”

“As I said before, he is not weak. Surely, he will return even stronger than before, as he always does.”

“To get even stronger than that, I can’t even imagine it.”

Yuseo-ah smiled lightly.

Talking like this made her feel a little relieved.

In this place where everyone believed in and followed her, the only people Yuseo-ah could talk to comfortably were Seun and Kang Han-cheol.

At this moment, she could relax.

Then, an familiar skeleton came running quickly from afar.

It was Park Jung-pil, returning from scouting as usual.

However, his condition did not look good.

“Ugh!”

“Jung-pil!”

Park Jung-pil, who had been pale as soon as he arrived, threw up everything he had eaten.

Seun’s camp. No, now that they had left the base, it would be more appropriate to call it a ‘clan.’

Anyway, Lee Ha-neul, the contractor of Marbas [a demon associated with knowledge and secrets], who was the only healer in the clan, ran forward and examined Park Jung-pil’s condition.

Soon, with a hardened expression, she used the power she had received through the constellation to heal Park Jung-pil and explained the symptoms to Yuseo-ah.

“…It’s poison.”

“Poison? Could it be the goblins again!”

“No. There are no external wounds. I’m not sure, but it’s likely that he was infected through the respiratory system.”

Lee Ha-neul’s face turned pale at this point.

Infection through the respiratory system.

That meant that there was poison distributed in the air.

Judging from Park Jung-pil’s condition, it seemed that the poison had gradually accumulated rather than being an acute infection.

If so.

“Everyone, soak cloths and cover your noses and mouths! There’s poison in the air!”

“P, poison in the air?”

No wonder the sunlight had seemed dim for a while. It wasn’t that it was cloudy, but that a hazy poisonous fog was blocking the sunlight.

People desperately tried to cover their respiratory systems, but it was already too late.

Although not as severe as Park Jung-pil, bad symptoms were appearing in people’s bodies.

“Lord Marbas!”

Lee Ha-neul urgently called out to her constellation, Marbas.

-The constellation, ‘Bloody Lion,’ informs you that there are too many patients and that it is a moment of choice.

The constellation was also shaking its head.

Even though she was receiving the constellation’s attention, there was a limit to the power that Lee Ha-neul could accept and use, so she could not heal all the patients in this place.

The best way was to retreat, but judging from the situation, only half of the people seemed likely to be safe until they escaped the poisonous fog.

Tightly!

Lee Ha-neul clenched her fist tightly.

She thought she could finally take care of people as a full-fledged healer, but this situation came as soon as she did.

At this moment, one man came to her mind.

The man who had appeared without a sound and healed people when the first casualties occurred, when the most casualties occurred, and who had instilled will in her.

Was it because of that?

“I didn’t know you’d come this far already.”

For some reason, she could hear his voice.

Whoo-oong!

“W, wind?”

A cool breeze blew around the people. The poisonous fog that had been constricting their breath receded, and the dim sunlight shone strongly.

And behind it, a man in red armor and a gray cloak stood.

“He’s here!”

“Cough! Hyung-nim…….”

The player who was now more familiar to people by the name Blood Wolf.

-The Treasure Vault of Greed has been opened.

[ Breeze ]

– One of the most basic wind magic used in the Green Magic Tower. It is a magic that creates a light breeze and is mainly used for living rather than attacking.

It was Seun’s appearance.
