The Greatest Architect

Chapter 78



78. Miracles, or smoke (3)

Where am I?

Why am I lying in a strange place again?

“ ……. ”

Lloyd blinks.

I wonder how long they’ve been closed.

My eyelids were stiff.

My neck and back were sore, too.

He thought.

‘Oh, I wish I could just possess it with a new body. It would be great if you were popping into a real nuclear bull ‘s-eye. ’

Of course, that’s not the case.

That’s what Lloyd knew best.

A message that comes to my mind as soon as I open my eyes.

Reading that, he was able to understand roughly what had happened to him.

[You have saved countless people from disasters through sacrifice, courage and heroism. The citizens of Cremo, the city of trade, are deeply impressed by your noble achievements.]

[Bonus for this huge social achievement and a large amount of RP will be awarded.]

[1000 RP obtained.]

[Current RP: 1,046]

“I’m what? Sacrifice, courage, role models? Save a lot of people from disaster? Haha. ’

Seeing the message in front of him, Lloyd laughs in vain.

A solo killer.

Courage and sacrifice.

That is the specification.

I hate asking for favors.

But you did that to yourself.).

The message that appeared to me was not the end there.

[Citizens of the Trading City praise you as the Guardian of Cremo.]]

[Your courage, base and sacrificial spirit echo the hearts of many.]

[This is a trading city. Thousands of merchants and visitors will see and admire your accomplishments through the mouths of the citizens here.]

[Your spite will spread throughout the kingdom with word of mouth from merchants.]

[Many artists inspired by your heroic stories will create this story in a variety of works.]

[For a while, your achievements will spread like a fad with songs, plays and art.]

[You have become a national celebrity.]

[Your name and accomplishments will be engraved in the history books of the realm in short order.]

[Bonus RP is awarded with increased Social Reputation.]

[Earned 500 RP.]

[Current RP: 1,546]

“Phew.”

I’m so angry. I’m so angry.

I was in a frenzy because of the flooding of the message.

At the same time, he realized.

‘You caught Gigatitan, I did. ’

A creature that could not stand against me.

Just an unanswered monster.

That’s why he was trying to stay cool while he installed it.

But you caught the Gigatitan yourself.

I couldn’t feel it.

But it seemed to be true.

Suddenly, I remembered the last thing I saw before I lost consciousness.

Gigatitan.

Engage weaknesses.

Self prepared to use the blast.

A sudden bombardment of flying rubble.

‘And I got hit in the head. ’

I still have a vivid sense at the time.

Something snapped, hit him on the head.

I remember the world slowly changing.

It was a process of fainting, no, of disorientation.

In it, you…….

‘I shot him. Very ignorant, too. ’

Two-three.

Ideal rotation rate for Mana Circle.

While I was losing my mind, only that proportion became obstinate.

So I did something crazy.

‘I didn’t protect the heart. ’

All the circles for protection were mobilized.

I crashed all three circles like that.

The overwhelming shock that shook the whole body at that moment.

The shock was his last memory.

‘But I survived. ’

I’m not dead.

He was alive and well.

My heart was beating just fine.

No, I felt even more energetic than before.

But Lloyd did not panic or panic.

Instead, I looked at the message that came to mind earlier.

It was because the situation was kindly guided there.

“Your Manahart skills have evolved? ’

His eyebrows twitch.

Manahart.

He wasn’t there yet.

No, I thought it would never happen again.

‘Training is too difficult and takes too long. It’ll take at least five years. That’s why I’ve completely folded my Manahart training. ’

It was true.

It was a work that required persistent and constant training every day.

So I folded up.

It was because I thought it would be beneficial to undertake any civil works while hanging on to that training.

‘We finally had Manacle to replace Manahart. ’

Thanks to this, I have the power to match the chaotic knights.

And there was Xaviel beside him.

So I thought I wouldn’t have to lose anything to a sword, and I wouldn’t have to go anywhere and die blind.

No, we had a deal.

This is good enough.

‘But I guess that Manahart was born. ’

It was as if I had received a surprise gift that I had never thought of.

He looked at the skill details as if he were opening a gift box.

Ding-dong.

[View skill information.]

[Skill Name: Manahart]

[Step: Mana User Lv. 1]

[It uses artificial techniques to store dense Mana inside the heart. The stored Mana is freely available for use. This will greatly help improve your physical abilities, and the higher the level, the more storage and efficiency Mana has.]

[Physical Performance Improvement Rate: 150%]

[RP for next level up: 50]

[Current RP: 1,546]

“Oh, you’re crazy. Crazy. ’

Lloyd sticks out his tongue.

It really was Manahart.

I wanted to build my heart, but I gave up because it took too much time and effort.

It really turned out to be a skill.

In fact, the feeling of beating of the heart changed a little.

Biceps, biceps.

Every time my heart beats, I feel a lump of Mana gathering inside.

The size was plum.

But the power was like a four-cylinder engine.

It’s as if the heart is equipped with an entire engine.

Moreover, it felt natural like a part of the body.

I thought I could send it freely with my arms and legs if I wanted to.

‘I really am Mana’s user. ’

Mana User, who is a reference point outside the general public.

What if this power is connected to the Triple Circle?

You seem to be exerting more power than the feisty Sword Expert.

I might even be able to rub it in with one of Expert’s finest knights.

Moreover, the gift did not end there.

No, there was a real one left.

Ding-dong.

[Your Manahart was created by the shock of the wave, not by normal training.]

[This special creation history gives your Manahart a unique character.]

[New skill option has been opened.]

[Skill Only Option ①: Shock offset Your Manaheart can self-offset shocks in collisions between Manacle without specific protection. So you don’t get hit by the blast. This option will help you overcome the limitations of having to protect your heart by mobilizing a single circle when using firing.]

‘Crazy.’

My eyes fluttered as I read it.

I even had the option to swallow the dry saliva.

Lloyd’s mind was busy.

‘Let me get this straight. I mean, Manahart was created with skills, so if you invest RP, you can go up to Sword Express or something. And in the meantime, there may be useful options. Plus it’s basically a nuclear option to be free from the shock of the blast. ’

In a word, great.

No, an invitation.

It means you don’t have to protect your heart when you shoot.

It also meant that you could always use the triple conflicts of the circle you fought against Gigatitan before you lost consciousness.

‘Maybe it was the eruption of the triple collision that brought Gigatitan down. So the power of the blast also increases to squares depending on the number of collisions. If so, that power is exponentially…. ’

Lloyd was obsessed with calculations.

But it was then.

A message in front of your eyes.

In the meantime, the familiar expression gives me a sudden look.

And then he talks back this way.

“You’re alive, aren’t you? ”

“ ……. ”

It was Xaviel.

Still careless.

With a grumpy face, like always.

In the same cold voice as always.

I asked him to come this way.

“Are you planning on going into another coma? ”

“…… Do you want me to do that? ”

“Well, to be honest,

He tilts his head to one side.

“I think so. ”

“ ……. ”

“I was very comfortable while you were in a coma. ”

“Comfortable?”

“Yes.”

Javier’s reckless pace continues.

“All I had to do was keep an eye on sleeping Lloyd. We didn’t have to dig through the ground with waves or crack open rocks. You didn’t have to put a stake in it with a hammer. And I didn’t have to shove it up my ass. ”

“Ha. You were sucking on the honey? ”

“This is an accurate summary. ”

“So now I’m wide awake? ”

“Yes.”

“Oh, I don’t deny it. ”

“If a superior starts to move too hard, the lower person gets tired. ”

“So what does that right hand that you’re raising mean? ”

“ ……. ”

“You’re not gonna knock me out with that, are you? Go to sleep. Boom, boom, boom. ”

“ ……. ”

“Now that I’ve been pointed out, let’s see you put your fist down. ”

“You’re welcome. How could I do that? ”

Xaviel reached out his hand.

I grabbed the back of my neck and back firmly.

He slowly raised his torso.

Maybe it’s because I’ve been lying down too long and woken up.

“Ugh.”

I was slightly dizzy.

But I didn’t feel bad.

Unlike the hate speech, it was even more so when I saw Xaviel’s smiling face looking this way.

“Thank God, Lloyd. ”

“I see. Thank goodness. To be able to bully you again. ”

“Yes, thank God again. because Lloyd’s solo can be extended. ”

“Yes, thank goodness. I thought I could tell the baron about your climb. ”

“You can’t be serious. ”

“I saw you do it. ”

“You mean you won’t. ”

“Phew. Look at you tidying up. ”

“Isn’t that right? ”

“You better hope you’re right. Drowning water every night, if possible. ”

I laughed sincerely.

I was really glad.

Neither myself nor him are safe.

Lloyd smiles, thinking it’s a relief.

Then Xaviel frowns.

I smiled again.

It made me feel real.

Everything went well.

It was time to relax and enjoy the rewards.

The reward was more tenacious, disruptive, and thorough than I expected.

The news that he woke up.

As soon as it became known, visitors lined up.

The first to rush into the room was Earl Cremo.

“Don’t you want to be my son-in-law? ”

“…… Yes? ”

As soon as the Earl walked into the room, the unimaginable courtship (?).

I was with a large bouquet of flowers who prayed for healing this way.

“Look, I don’t know what you mean. ”

“What are you talking about? Shall I say it again?”

“ ……. ”

“Be my son-in-law. ”

“ ……. ”

Lloyd shuts up.

At first, I thought he ate something wrong.

But when I saw his eyes and voice, I never joked or joked.

If I just nod my head, I feel like calling my only daughter here right now and giving her a ceremony.

So Lloyd cuts off and shakes his head.

“I’m sorry.”

“Why?”

“Your favor and offer is truly unforgiving……. ”

“Work?”

“I don’t think I can handle it. ”

It is true.

A random marriage.

Married to the Count’s only daughter.

It may seem like an amazing opportunity to you.

But Lloyd thought the reality was a little different.

“Marriage at this point. Worst case, I go out on a budget to formally pay for a hot wife, pay for another wedding, and if I have a kid, I lose my gas and my education money, and when will I repay the debt to the territory? ’

Of course, the Earl will be able to repay that debt.

But it’s never free.

It’s just a new intangible debt.

Lloyd didn’t want the Earl to get his nose stitched up like that.

His goal is to repay debt to private loan sharks and to freely and proactively suck honey. It was so small and so peaceful, so imperfect and so impure that it was okay to live.

It would not have been wise to jump into the great waters of the Earl.

Lloyd bows again.

“I’m sorry.”

“Tsk. Is that so? ”

“Yes, I will only accept the heart of the erl. ”

“At best, I’m open to suggestions. ”

“I’m so sorry. ”

“Then there’s nothing I can do. ”

Earl Cremo’s taste buds are unfortunate.

Since then, many people have come to the room.

A historic merchant family in the city.

Shipbuilding based denial.

Private escort service to a family that sits on a silver platter.

Everyone was quite influential in the city. They came to the room and said the same thing.

“Don’t you want to have a good relationship with our family? ”

There was a line of ceremonial ceremonial ceremonies that twisted the moon sickness.

Of course, every time, Lloyd shakes his head.

He had already rejected the Earl’s story.

There was no reason to accept their tales.

Instead, I refused them with good words and kept only my relationship with them.

“Whoa. Another courtship. I feel like the best hot guy in town. ”

Why do people who come to the hospital every day have the same goal?

That means the stock price has gone up that much. It also means that you will be treated as the best bridegroom in the city.

When I thought about it, I felt good for no reason.

It was because it seemed impossible to imagine when I was in Korea.

Xaviel, who cared for him, laughed deeply.

“Hot Gaera, congratulations. ”

“…… slurp. Why do you think I’m laughing at you? ”

“Absolutely not. ”

“Isn’t it?”

“Yes.”

“Then what is it? ”

“Yes?”

“A pack of envelopes in your hand. ”

“Ah.”

“Is that it? ”

“Yes, that’s right. ”

“Really?”

“Yes.”

“A new confession letter while I was lying down? ”

“Yes.”

“ ……. ”

“Let’s count the barrels. ”

“No, don’t. ”

“Five… seven… eleven… twenty……. ”

“Don’t do it. ”

“Thirty-nine barrels. ”

“Damn it.”

“That explains the twelve tales of Lloyd. ”

“ ……. ”

“Phew.”

“ ……. ”

You’re not just bluffing at John Zaller. Lloyd felt that and trembled.

It was then.

Knock-knock.

“Someone’s here to see you. I’ll let you in.”

A knock comes from outside the door, and the voice of the Earl’s servant comes in.

Soon the door opened.

Until then, Lloyd thought there would be another faceless force coming in.

You’re here to offer me a marriage proposal, just like everyone else. That’s how I looked at the door of the room.

And he flinched without even knowing it.

“You! ”

A sudden whirlwind of pain.

A sudden approach and dumping.

A hand that pulls back and forth without any time to prepare.

“What did your father say? I told you not to do anything dangerous like that. ”

Wow!

“… huh? ”

Lloyd opens his eyes.

Baron and his wife, Frontera, who had never expected to come this far. The two crying men were holding themselves hot in this room.
