Pick Me Up, Infinite Gacha

# 218

218. The unsuitable (3)

Belquist fell to the floor.

Then, he closed his hands as if he were holding them.

His entire forearm trembled with so much force.

[Danger!]

[‘Belquist (★★★★)’ begins to be polluted!]

“Ka… Hak…!”

A gasping sound escaped Belquist’s wide open mouth.

Black veins sprouted from the sides of the eyes.

obvious contamination.

‘Not yet.’

It was bound to go through a state of contamination at least once in the middle of carving a higher imprint.

It was important from now on. If you overcome it, you will become the owner of the imprint, and if you can’t overcome it…

Sreung.

I pulled the blade halfway out of the scabbard Belquist gave me.

‘There is reason.’

His face was twisted in pain, but the light was still in his eyes.

thud! thump thump!

Belquist hit the floor with his fist.

As he struck it several times, blood flowed between his clenched fists.

[Danger!]

[The contamination of ‘Belquist (★★★★)’ is getting worse!]

[Be careful, Master! A hero who has fallen into contamination cannot be recovered.]

Ujik.

Along with the sound of skin being torn, black blood vessels sprouted from his body.

Belquist vomited black, thick blood from his mouth.

[So what did I say! Cancel now! I’m not completely over it yet!]

Gugu-Kon hurriedly approached Belquist.

The dove tried to push away the orb that was emitting white light near Belquist.

“…Stop it, Ra.”

Belquist grabbed Gugukon’s wings.

“It’s not over… yet.”

Belquist carried it under the boat as if holding a marble.

Then he muttered in a voice mixed with metal.

“I… I… have to be strong…”

[You madman! I lost my mind. What are you doing!]

The dove looked back at me with ferocious eyes.

On the spot, I continued to stare at Belquist with my sword half drawn.

“Stop it, don’t.”

Belquist looked up at me with reddened eyes.

“I… chose the path. I will take responsibility.”

“It’s not your responsibility to die at will.”

“of course.”

Cool!

Belquist vomited black blood once more.

“Because I decided to die on the battlefield.”

“…”

“So… I won’t die in such an ugly way.”

The sound of Belquist’s clenching echoed throughout the room.

‘Isn’t that what I did from the beginning?’

I remembered Iolka’s precedent.

In terms of efficiency, originally, she shouldn’t have gone to the water dragon subjugation.

However, the guy has teased me several times. let’s fight together

It is the same now.

A gamble of 2% odds.

I listened to my colleague’s fooling around again this time.

Of course, I have no intention of going back now.

If I stop here, Belquist will resent me for the rest of my life.

“…thank you.”

Belquist looked at me and laughed hard.

I sighed deeply.

Now all I could do was wait and see what would happen to him.

Wood deok!

The sound of bones cracking.

The skin was torn, and pure white scales sprouted from the cracks.

Belquist let out a silent scream.

Wooddeuk. White horny horns sprouted from Belquist’s temples.

It was the same as that of Delphine, the official successor of Asinis.

I gave strength to the sword hilt.

Pollution was still going on.

Black blood flowed from the corner of his eyes to his entire body.

The black blood vessels unique to the contaminants were prominent enough to be exposed even to the outside of the skin. The moment those blood vessels eat away at the heart, it will turn into a monster-like state.

‘Not yet.’

The white dragon’s scales and horns are still sprouting.

White scales that shimmered like jewels covered Belquist’s skin.

As if being pushed away by the energy of the white dragon, the black veins were gradually removed.

[Ha, this is so…]

Gugu-Kon let out a breath as if he was stumped.

‘Is it a success?’

It’s strange to do that.

It was different from my time. When I imprinted Black Dragon Blood, black energy came in naturally as if permeating.

However, the white dragon’s blood seemed to run rampant inside Belkist.

Belquist only wriggled from time to time, but showed no reaction as if he had already passed out.

His flesh and bones were visible through his torn clothes.

If you didn’t look closely, you wouldn’t be able to tell who it was.

“…”

wriggling.

The fallen Belquist moved his fingers.

Then, in a slow motion, he began to raise his body.

[It’s here.]

Gugukon took a few steps back from Belquist.

Belquist’s eyelids, which had stopped standing up, went up.

Silver eyes that seemed to see through the opponent.

Its mouth opened up and down.

[This body is terrible.]

The first words that came out of Belquist’s mouth were heartfelt complaints.

[It lacks functionality, durability, and potential. It’s not enough to draw out my strength.]

[I think the same way.]

Gugukon scratched the wing with his front paw.

I laughed bitterly.

[Are you an Israt?]

Asinis, the founder of the 4th generation family, who was strong in Belqist, looked at me and said.

Surprise appeared in Asinis’s eyes as he scanned me.

[Your talent is better than expected. I thought that swindler was lying again.]

[Who is the swindler?]

[But why… should I dwell with such a flawed person? A suitable body is in front.]

“What’s the difference between him and me. It’s all there.”

The white dragon, Asinis, had endlessly languid eyes.

I spoke.

“I’m sorry for the first meeting, but please help him. He’s a guy who works hard. I won’t cause any trouble.”

[Again, it’s a terrible body. I think I bought the wrong one.]

“What about that?”

[I want to change the owner. Give me a refund.]

“That’s not okay.”

[If I use all my power, this guy will explode and die in an instant.]

“It’s like that now, but maybe later.”

[I did not come here to play with words. I need a more efficient body to save Taoneer.]

“They say you won’t know if you go later. He could be very strong.”

Asinis tilted her head.

[Everything is helpful to you, so why refuse? This guy can’t even properly contain me. Are you going to say you don’t know this later?]

“Then.”

[Whoops…]

Asinis laughed.

[It’s like Hogu. You can’t eat it even if you give it to me.]

“…”

[That’s good. And if you want to make this guy stronger, do whatever you want.]

Asinis said with her eyes down.

[From now on, the power of the White Dragon King, Deltari Asinis, belongs to this guy.]

Wooddeuk.

The horns rising from the temples disappeared.

The same goes for the white scales and black veins that were a sign of contamination.

[Hehehe… But I wonder how far we can go.]

Asinis’s eyes closed.

For a moment, Belquist stumbled and collapsed, leaning against the wall.

[Parabam!]

[Imprinting has been completed.]

[A special ability will be engraved on the body of ‘Belquist (★★★★)’!]

The imprinted message finally appears.

did not fail

However, I swallowed a sigh at the explanation that came to my mind afterwards.

[True White Dragon Blood (S Lv. 1)]

[Blood that proves the pure lineage of the ancient White Dragon. Unprecedented power is staying.]

[Inherent skill: 1. White Dragon Leg]

[※ There are many other unknown skills.]

[Note 1 – ‘True White Dragon Blood’ is currently unavailable for some reason. It can’t be done.]

The worst situation of falling into contamination due to engraving failure was avoided.

However, it was difficult to even call it a success.

‘Is it locked?’

If you imprint an imprint that does not match the level of the hero, even if the imprint succeeds, the ability may be locked.

This engraving could be seen as half success and half failure.

The probability of seeing it was 2%, but I expected Belquist to not die.

If Asinis had completely rejected Belquist, there would have been a harbinger in the Advent Dungeon.

However, Baekryong obediently entrusted the engraving stone to him. It was evidence that there was some intention to enter his body.

Gambling was gambling, but not groundless gambling.

“…”

After a while, Belquist opened his eyes.

Belquist said in a hushed voice.

“…How is it?”

“You know it when you see it. You are alive.”

I threw his scabbard at Belquist.

Belquist took it as a right hand.

“I don’t feel anything.”

[Asinis is clearly within you. It’s just that I can’t feel it because it’s faint. You don’t have the same aptitude as this guy. Did you think you could fully use that ability?]

Gugukon approached Belquist.

“What’s the point if you can’t write?”

[That’s the case now.]

“Can you overcome it with training?”

[It can’t be like that. No matter how much a human being trains, can he bend his neck 180 degrees? The reason why you can’t handle white dragon blood is similar.]

Belquist furrowed his eyebrows.

“Then…”

[There is a secret technique passed down in the Asinis family. It’s called Kangryongsul. It is a ritual that makes the human body closer to that of a dragon. Asinis successors have been receiving strong dragon magic from generation to generation.]

It was the first time I had heard of it.

But it wasn’t even nonsense. Asinis’ successor, Delphine, did not look like an ordinary human.

[Then tell me on your own. I don’t know!]

Gugukon turned his back.

Then, waddling her fat ass, she slipped through the gap in the slightly open door.

‘Tell me.’

Well, looking back, I know what Belquist needs right now.

“As you can see, you don’t seem to be able to use the imprint in your current state.”

“It seems so. There is no response.”

“Belquist.”

I opened my mouth.

“I’m out of the 1st party for the time being. Don’t participate in the mission. Don’t train, don’t help the newcomers. If you ate something expensive, you’ll have to pay for it. Don’t think about coming back until you use the white dragon blood properly.”

“…”

“As the pigeon said, it seems that you can write the imprint if you receive Asinis’s secret technique.”

Even if that happens, you probably won’t be able to write it completely.

The next thing was Belquist himself. Like I did when I was practicing Black Dragon Blood, I will have to repeat trial and error to get used to the ability. In the process, you will have to go through life and death several times.

Belquist, who had been listening to me quietly, murmured.

“It’s supposed to be stuck in the exploration dungeon. How much time do you have?”

“Not many. Come at least until you go to the 50th floor.”

“I’m going to be tight.”

“of course.”

It is unknown what condition Assinis is in now that the contingent has been annihilated.

It could have been in a state of extinction due to the invasion of the church army. Or, you may not be able to go to the area where Asinis is because you are blocked by the wall of the exploration dungeon.

Even if Assinis was safe and Belquist entered there, it was obvious how they would accept Belquist’s request to hand over the family’s special vision.

But Belquist didn’t say no.

“He said he was curious about how far you could go. This is the minimum condition you must meet to use the imprint.”

“If I’m not there, who will take my place?”

“There are many candidates. Never mind.”

“Right.”

Belquist closed his eyes.

And he said it out loud.

“It’s just… I’m on the same line.”

“On the same ship?”

“It’s not like I can roll the dice either. Just like you and the spearman.”

Belquist muttered while facing upward.

“How far can it go? I was really curious about that too.”

clap.

Belquist, with a scabbard on his belt, stood up.

“I’ll be back in two weeks.”

“Are you leaving right now? Say hello to the other kids?”

“I need something like that.”

“Nerissa will be disappointed.”

Belquist chuckled.

“Puck.”

Belquist left the room without hesitation.

Soon after, the sound of the camp’s door opening was heard.

[Autonomous action is activated!]

[Master hero ‘Belquist (★★★★)’ starts exploring!]

[The dowry is automatically distributed to the hero. 10000G consumed.]

[Tips/ If you want to stop unruly heroes, turn off the ‘autonomous action’ function!]

‘In two weeks.’

It would be better to set the date for climbing the 50th floor around that time.

Before that, I had to wake up to the 49th floor beforehand.

“Move faster! We have to move faster!”

“Do it, I’ll try it!”

The way to the dorm after leaving the private practice room.

Suddenly, a strange voice came from downstairs.

‘…’

The training center also had stairs leading to the lower floors.

I looked down with my feet slightly on the stairs.

“Okay, like that!”

There, five men and women were sweating together in a clearing.

In each hand, there is a weapon for practice. They moved busily and made a big circle.

It was a form practice.

They moved their steps swinging wooden swords as if a monster was in front of them.

It’s late in the morning, but I’m still practicing.

I rarely do group training now.

Each of the 1st party had their own fighting style and went beyond relying on the formation. Physical training, which was done every morning, was also sluggish as the physical ability improved.

‘…Reminds me of the old days.’

If Belquist achieves its goal and returns, the landscape of the training center at that time might be drawn again.

I watched them tumble in the vacant lot, sweating, and didn’t return until morning.
