Chapter 172 – Chapter 172 ― Do Goddess (5)
Episode 172 ― Work Goddess (5)
“In such a radical way… I didn’t expect to send a letter…”
Aina muttered as she lay on the bed.
“At that level, I think it’s probably the Duke’s decision… Coke.”
Aina, who responded in a clear voice about her illness, coughed.
Grünent and Aina caught a cold.
Helen, who spent the night with them, felt that her body was uncomfortable.
Grünent and Aina ended up lying side by side in Grünent’s bedroom in the tower.
The accident that happened last time in the Eastern Emperor — since seeing the Tainted, Roan has become sensitive to coughing.
“Are you the duke? Coke, even to the forest fairy… Are there any nobles?”
As if he couldn’t hide his curiosity even while lying down, Grunent, who was lying on the bed next to him, turned around and asked a question.
“As a human being, I think she is a queen. Between us… She is the only title.”
“Collock, it’s amazing…”
“It seems like I just told the two of them. Wouldn’t it be better to get some sleep?”
“But Your Majesty… I’ve been locked up here all day and slept.”
With her slightly flushed face, Gruenent put on a pitying expression.
“Collock, Coke. I’m sorry, Your Majesty. At the same time… Even one person in the wedding preparations… This is when we need more.”
“Okay.”
Despite Helen’s magic that healed her incurable disease, there was no improvement in the condition of Grunent and Aina.
Divine magic is said to heal diseases and wounds by concentrating the life force that spreads throughout the body into one place. It is rather ineffective in a state where the energy of the whole body is missing like body aches.
She said that even if it is energized, there is no vitality in the vessel of the body to support it, so it is meaningless.
In the end, Helen and the medicine man concluded that her recent schedule was unreasonable for Grünent, and for Aina, who naturally followed her around.
So the two are imprisoned in the tower,
The state where Roan splits his busy time to see the two of them.
‘They’re not warriors in the first place, so their health is bound to be low.’
In the game, Grünent is a politician or scholar, and Aina is a character who is raised as an elementalist, archer, or assassin.
The two’s ability values are distributed among knowledge, wisdom, and charm. Aina is a character with skill levels added to it.
That’s why Grunent is a character that can’t be taken out into battle—a character that was originally created to assist warriors in the royal palace—and Aina, too, must have a avant-garde to receive attacks.
Such as raising a hero in a defense type, giving defense magic to the mage, Urtellia, or adding Helen to the team.
Of course, the two in real life may have slightly different conditions from those in the game because the story flows differently, but anyway, her health stat is the lowest among all the target female characters.
Roan knew that, so I couldn’t help but worry.
“It’s good that the forest fairy queen replied to me, but I was surprised because it was a bit unexpected. Anyway, I’ll take care of that, so you two can get some rest.”
“Surprised… It’s not something I can express enough, Your Majesty… , Coke.”
Aina frowned and coughed again as she tried to raise her body, and Roan put her finger on her forehead to keep Aina from rising.
“… Ugh.”
“You have a fever.”
Roan let out a sigh and gathered her holy power at her fingertips.
“It will get better.”
Star blessing.
Vitality recovery.
And the moment I tried to put a slip on it.
“… !”
“Uh… ?”
Roan’s eyes widened in disgust.
When Aina made a daze noise, Grunent, who didn’t know anything, looked at Roan with sleepy eyes.
It was Helen who guessed the correct answer.
“Master. Could it be that it is flowering?”
Helen’s eyes widened as she sat by Grünent’s bed, holding her hand and praying.
It was a little cumbersome for Roan, who habitually tried to display stats in his field of vision, but he checked the details through the character submenu on the menu screen.
A small smile crept across his face as he stared into the air. The women felt a sense of incongruity, but as far as they could see, the emperor looked at his hand and smiled.
It wasn’t to the point of being particularly strange.
There were occasional cases where the emperor would say that he had gained new powers as if contemplating himself while thinking about something.
“Okay. It seems that I have been able to learn a new ability.”
It was a calm voice,
Roan wanted to run amok.
‘It’s 60! I reached Knowledge 60!’
You can finally enter the realm of intermediate magic! Wisdom also increased by 1 to 93, but this was over 90, so I didn’t feel much lacking.
However, due to his low knowledge level, he was having difficulty learning divine magic. Unlike general magic that can be learned only with high knowledge, divine magic is based on both wisdom and knowledge levels.
He is able to master new divine magic,
Even if they use the same divine magic, there is a difference in abilities between 59 and 60 knowledge points.
“The divine power felt in the master’s body suddenly became strong. Reduce!”
“Oh my god… Coke, Your Majesty, I’m getting stronger here… Really… ?”
Aina said like a sigh as if she was fed up.
“Oh my God, Your Majesty… You’re getting stronger… I think I’ll fall in love again…”
Grünent, with a red face, throws jokes that don’t make sense. Roan smiled and put a slip on Aina and Grünent.
Seeing the two of them asleep, Helen laughed and pulled her body up.
“It is the first time I have seen such rapid growth. I was also called a talented person in the church, but it wasn’t this fast. If he had been in Merde, he would have become Pope right away.”
Roan shrugged his shoulders.
“Is that important? Hierarchies in human organizations don’t matter.”
Helen, who had been staring at him for a moment as if surprised to hear Roan’s words, nodded her head with her serious face.
“… The master is right. I still can’t change my thinking habits… Sorry.”
“Okay. And the goddess said so too. I can grow because I have a good teacher by my side.”
“Ah…”
Hearing Roan’s gentle words, Helen froze for a moment. Her expression immediately brightened.
“Your virtue will be great. Thanks.”
Roan smiled softly and looked up at Helen while sitting on the chair between Grunent and Aina’s bed.
“I still want to take care of them and go. I also want to look into the newly grown power. Would you please leave your seat for a while?”
“All right. Master.”
After bowing her head in greeting, Helen quietly closed the door as she left the bedroom.
She could hear the whispers of Helen talking with Grunent’s ladies-in-waiting outside.
The owner wants to take a look at the two of them sleeping, so don’t disturb them until they come out.
A loyal child
Roan smiled once and started looking at the details of the character menu again.

Every time I see the level I climbed, a smile comes to my mind.
Because it’s a proud trace that I’ve been through all this time.
Looking at the character, that is, my state, through the menu UI, I was able to learn many things that I couldn’t see until recently.
In addition to the stats that have been known so far,
Even the level of physical strength, magical power, divine power, or skill development experience that so-called gamers call blood pain.
It has the downside of obscuring the view and requiring time because you have to enter through the menu, but this way is perfect and accurate to figure out your own abilities.
As the knowledge and wisdom levels rose, explanations about new abilities appeared on the New tab. After lightly reading it once, I checked to see if there was any change in skill experience.
The more frequently used skills, the higher the experience.
In the past (it was already last fall), I was worried because my skill level had not changed since I listened and appealed. Fortunately, however, the level of ‘detection’ rose a while ago, and there are some that are almost on the verge of rising.
About 3 weeks after this menu is created.
It was only when he saw that the EXP of the ‘Detection’ skill, which had risen on the same day, increased by 3%, and even the Lv1 levels of ‘Miheun’ and ‘Overwhelm’ by 3-4%, Roan could understand why his level had not risen.
Growth has never been this slow in games.
‘There was a hero correction.’
Unreasonably, as always, it seems that there was also a skill growth correction for the player’s hero.
Naughty guy.
So, recently, there are times when I slightly loosen ‘overwhelm’ or ‘miheun’, which seemed to be locked up on purpose, and I use ‘detection’ or ‘listen’ more often than before.
‘They’re still working hard.’
Out of the sky.
While watching Fiora and meeting the Goddess, I clearly felt that the Demon King is not the strongest in this world.
There is not even information about the real demon king who disappeared or the unknown square ■■.
The hero was just one of the candidates who could catch the devil. I know the hero’s weakness, but I can’t be relieved.
It was this thoroughness that allowed Roan to come this far. The lack of contrast is always better.
‘Good. Then, write it down like this.’
Roan, who took out a notebook from his inventory and wrote down the day’s skill and stat changes, looked at Grunent and Aina who were sleeping peacefully.
‘It’s a cough.’
Now just seeing him coughing makes me feel like I’m going to play.
It seems that the heart that was surprised to grow up for no reason is not surprised to see the lid of the pot.
Even Yurus, which had been contaminated, could not be cured before the contamination was activated.
I guess it’s because the blessings of the stars are not fundamentally healing magic… That is Helen’s analysis.
Literally, the blessing is not a cure, but a curse.
‘Curse…’
Lost in thought, Roan opened his inventory and tried to put his notebook and pen back, but his eyes stopped at one place.
‘Preventing the curse… Hmm.’
Where Roan’s eyes landed, there was crystal powder.
Count Astor Powder — Astor means ‘dust’ in the ancient language of the old beasts. After all, this crystalline powder got the name ‘Garwage Powder’ — he was the one who named it.
Several times, while bringing powder to the vicinity of Zeno and Laju for experiments and education, he kept the remaining traces in his inventory.
‘If the power to block the curse is to restore the power of the earth in Astor, why not stay in the air instead of on the ground?’
Roan took out a box containing astor powder from his inventory and picked up a pinch.
A 10g dose is sufficient for the entire greenhouse.
You wouldn’t even need half of it if you covered this tiny bedroom.
There is no way the power of the fallen land will work here in Basel, far from the Eastern Emperor. However, Astor Garu, who brought him a miracle, is now like a talisman to Roan.
If you feel relieved by putting some Astor powder here, then it doesn’t matter.
‘This probably won’t be fatal to Aina either.’
If you feel unwell, please let us know right away.
Roan looked around, looking for a place where his maids wouldn’t throw away or put away the powder while cleaning.
The place where he put the astor powder is in the decorative vase. Roan, who confirmed that it was put on a high place and had white dust inside, poured astor powder into it, brushed the two women’s hair, and left the bedroom.
And the next day.
Perhaps it was thanks to the courteous care of the ladies-in-waiting.
Grünent and Aina shook their bodies and stood up.
