I Fell into the Game with Instant Kill-Chapter 61.2: Refrigon (6)
Chapter 61.2: Refrigon (6)
Late at night, Gulpiro, who was cleaning up the store, greeted a late customer.
Seeing Reef entering the store, he straightened his bent waist.
“What’s going on at this hour?
She glanced around the cluttered interior of the store and opened her mouth.
“…Before you leave, please check my brother’s condition one more time. I’ll give you any amount of money you want.”
Gulpiro shook his head and sighed.
“Money is not the problem. How many times have I already told you? There will be no change even if I examined him again.”
Gulpiro was also well aware of Reef’s situation.
It’s hard to find people who didn’t know about her in this city of Mahea.
He was the one who made potions suitable for her younger brother in the first place and provided them until now.
Was it half a year ago when she first came to the store?
Hearing about her circumstances, Gulpiro went to the house and inspected her brother’s condition.
The blood mist that the boy ingested was completely incompatible with mana.
Someone with magical power could protect themselves from the poison. But for someone who had already been poisoned, magic power was nothing more than a deadly poison.
Therefore, Gulpiro made a potion that did not contain any magical power and could ease her brother’s condition even a little.
But that was it.
It only played the role of barely holding onto the poison so that the boy’s condition would not get worse.
Just by looking at Reef’s increased frequency of visits to the store these days, the potion’s medicinal effect was gradually declining.
Eventually, her brother would die unless they found a fundamental solution. It was an unavoidable result.
Light blood disease, an incurable disease suffered by those who came into contact with the unique blood magic of the Sixth Lord.
It was an unknown area that even the great alchemist Gulpiro had no way to cure.
He sympathized with Reef’s plight, but he also knew that there was nothing more he could do for her.
“I’m sorry, but there’s nothing I can do anymore. Go back.”
“···”
Reef’s eyelids trembled.
She clenched her fists in her hands and half-glared at Gulpiro, then turned around with a sign of resignation.
“···Thank you, so far.”
The moment she was about to get out of the store, the door opened first.
Their gaze shifted to the stranger who came in.
A man wearing a robe that made his face difficult to see.
He looked at Gulpiro and Reef one after another and opened his mouth.
“There is a potion I want to purchase….”
Gulpiro’s complexion hardened slightly.
Because he felt an unusual atmosphere. It was not the time for ordinary guests to come in the first place.
“Tell me. Is there anyone who needs urgent treatment?”
“No, no, that’s not it.”
The man pulled up his hood and said in a low voice.
“The thing I want to buy is an elixir, the great alchemist Gulpiro.
“···!”
Gulpiro’s eyes widened for a moment.
The man, Dersan, did not miss the reaction.
He exposed his fangs and put a creepy smile on his lips.
“As expected.”
“Who are you?”
Dersan reached out toward Reef without answering.
In response, Gulpiro hurriedly raised his magic power and performed magic.
Aww!
Blood and magic collided in the air.
Thanks to Gulpiro’s defense, she didn’t get hit directly, but the impact caused Reef to fly to one side of the store and crash into the wall.
“Uh-huh…!”
It was time for Gulpiro to perform the next magic right away.
Dersan, who had approached a short distance in an instant, was aiming the dagger he drew at his neck.
“···”
Gulpiro glared at him, then slowly lowered his hands.
Dersan smiled and nodded his head.
“It’s a wise choice.”
“Why are you attacking us?”
“Oh, don’t get me wrong. I’m not at all hostile to you. I was just trying to get rid of the disturbers in the conversation… was that woman important to you?”
Dersan scratched his chin with an empty hand and looked carefully at her face, then burst out a small sigh, as if realizing it.
“Oh, aren’t you the slave gladiator bitch of Actipol? Was it Reef?”
Reef got up from where she crashed and glared at him fiercely.
“Well, anyway, don’t move and stay still. If you want to save your life, that is.”
Dersan turned his gaze back to Gulpiro.
“I only want one thing, Gulpiro. Where is it, the Blood of Diferi, the elixir you crafted?”
Gulpiro replied with a chuckle.
“It’s not with me.”
“Even if you don’t have it in your hands, of course you have the recipe. Give it to me.”
“Crazy bastard. Did you think I would do what you said if you threatened me with just a knife to my neck?”
Dersan lit a crimson flame in his hand and aimed it at Reef. At that, Gulpiro gulped.
Dersan let out a mean laugh.
“Yeah, that’s right. You had a pretty special relationship with that gladiator bitch, didn’t you?”
“···”
“Give me the Elixir’s recipe quietly. Otherwise, she will burn without leaving a single bone fragment on her body.
That was the moment.
A blue sword energy shot through the window and hit Dersan.
“···!”
He hurriedly twisted his body and barely defended himself, and then bounced off to one side of the store.
Shortly thereafter, another person jumped through the window and landed on one side of the store.
The woman with the sword, Asher stared at the staggering Dersan with cold eyes.
Gulpiro looked at her with surprised eyes.
“You···?”
Then the door of the store opened, and another voice intervened.
“Didn’t I tell you she would be around to keep you safe?”
A man walked in and looked around the messy interior of the store.
Then, his gaze stopped on Dersan, who had an even more bewildered face.
The man, the Seventh Lord, opened his mouth
“What are you doing, vampire?”
