Chapter 28: 28

28 : Taruwiveno ＋ – 2

“Login.”
“Chu-chuu“
After finishing various things in real life, I began my afternoon playtime.
That said, my login point was inside of the safety area, a sight in which I’ve already grown accustomed to, considering it was the 3rd day since the game had started its service…… Ahh wait, never mind. It’s no longer a scene that I was used to.

“This is…… ahh, I see. So this is how they usually multiply.”
Looking closely at the inside of the safety area, moss had began to grow in the corner where I left my items.
The source of this was the leaves of the dangling meat fern flower. Some of them had fallen to the floor and the moss had come from there.
For the dangling meat fern flowers, this was most likely an a method of reproduction that served as an alternative to simply increasing their amount of moss diligently.
Specifically, the inviting smell of the meat flower would beckon animals over and while they had their meal, the leaves would stick to their bodies.
Then, those attached leaves would fall off somewhere and start propagating there or something like that.
In short, the dangling meat fern flower’s leaves were indeed leaves, but at the same time, they also acted like seeds from a cocklebur.
Although it was utilizing a curse, it really was a mysterious plant.

“Anyways, let’s appraise this.”
I tried appraising the moss portion of the dangling meat fern flower.
While it was still stuck to the walls or floor, it would be judged as a living thing. However, when I picked it up, it would change and be considered as an item. I firmly attached it to the wall again and the verdict changed into a living thing once more.
Truly a mysterious plant.

Dangling Meat Fern Flower’s Moss
Level : 1
Durability : 100/100
Interference : 100
Corruption : 100/100
Abnormalities : 10

A part of the dangling meat fern flower that can be said to be its main body.
It favors areas that are strong in curse concentration and if the size of the room has enough downward space, it will produce vines in order to largely propagate.
▽▽▽▽▽


“Its abnormalities was surprisingly high wasn’t it…… Leaves were 1 and even though the vines were 5, this was 10. Well, it wasn’t really a rare number, so maybe I shouldn’t mind…… or should I actually? There seems to be a pattern of me getting into trouble with things that had a similar amount of abnormalities as me after all.”
For now, I launched myself off the ground and flew up as I grabbed a handful of the dangling meat fern flower’s moss before pasting it against the ceiling.

Upon doing so, perhaps it was thanks to the properties of the plant, but it had stuck onto the ceiling effortlessly.

“It seems fine, though looking at the situation closely, the safety area’s curse concentration is dropping, so I should probably dispose of it quickly. If I were to somehow properly grow it…… let’s hope to have a steady supply of these vines.”
If the dangling meat fern flowers could be grown proficiently, I wouldn’t have any problems when it comes to stocking up on string-shaped objects.
Rather, it might even be possible as a way to replenish food.
In any case, it doesn’t hurt to hope.

“Next is the real issue at hand.”
Now then, I was perplexed over the sudden change and decided to do a bit of work, but my main priority now was figuring out what to do with the Poison Spitting Rat venom that was stored in the Poisonous Bite Rat’s Poison Retrieving Bag.

“The contents of the bag will automatically be blended together and it could be taken out as long as the bag itself wasn’t destroyed. The only thing I had in there was the venom. Hmm, I wonder how it’ll turn out if I inserted some Poisonous Bite Rat venom in there as well……”
For the time being, I’ve placed the bag on top of the tea bowl that I used last time.
This way, if the bag is torn, the venom should spill into the tea bowl, right?
Though, instead of tearing open the bag right away, I thought about it a bit.
The reason as to why was simple. It’s almost as if I’ve already started my work.

“Should I go with that? Should I add in the Poisonous Bite Rat’s venom? Or maybe I should empty out the bag, and mix in the dangling meat fern flower leaves after I mash them up?”
“Chuu?”
“It’s a distressful concern, you know? There’s also the problem of whether I should strengthen『Taruwiveno』or deviate from it, and even if I choose to improve it, what would it prioritize? Damage, range, cost, or its unique ability? Incidentally, there was another issue regarding what variables it would take for damage and cost. Does it factor in percentage or was it a fixed value?
“Chuu-chuu?”
“To make matters worse, considering the very nature of how a curse is, if I didn’t specifically narrow down the curse, I feel like I’d end up getting more demerits compared to the upgrades I’d want.”
“Chichuu?”
The Poison Rat’s Pointed Hat squeaked as if it was asking questions, but it probably didn’t understand a single thing in reality.
Well, I was just putting my thoughts into words, so it’s not like I was expecting an answer anyways.
At any rate, this was a troubling situation.
Whichever choice I went with, I assume there’d be appropriate merits as well as demerits and its not exactly guaranteed to work out.
However, if I can’t begin to properly picture the completed product, the result is bound to turn out to be worthless. I’ll need to fully think this through.

“Alright, I’ve decided. I’ll carry on with what I first set out to do. Let’s strengthen the『Magic Eye of Poison・1』and hope for an increase in the fixed value of the amount of poison dealt.”
“Chuu!”
I pierced the bag with the tooth knife.
Upon doing so, a large quantity of the Poison Spitting Rats’ venom streamed out from the inside and filled the tea bowl.

“…… I see, as expected, it didn’t matter even if it wasn’t within the bloodstream.”
A part of the venom that flowed out dropped on my hand and I felt pain as I was inflicted with Poison (1).
Just to be safe, I used the『Appraisal Loupe』and checked out the details.

A cursed substance created from Sorcery『Rat-bite Fever Creation・2』
Causes the poison status condition upon entering the blood stream.
It’s dependent on the surrounding temperature until it’s time for it to decompose.
The effect is weak, but the poison even manifests upon contact with skin.
▽▽▽▽▽

“『Rat-bite Fever Creation・2』. The possibility has come into sight, hasn’t it.”
I emptied all of the bag’s contents into the tea bowl and placed the venom-brimming container onto the grudge table.
Then, the tea bowl was engulfed in the usual red, black, and purple mist.

“I wish to amplify my ability. The enemies in which I glare at will be struck by poison without regards to their environment. I desire a power that will curse others to death.”
My 13 eyes continued to gaze intently at the fog.
I threw away as many of my worldly thoughts as possible and kept on praying.

“I seek a strengthening of my power, without an escalation of any compensation when I conjure the curse.”
The fog started to form into a geometrical figure, but I paid no heed to it. I only persisted with my appeal.
I envisioned my newly desired power in my head and yearned for it.

“For the sake of acquiring this power I’ve sought after, I am willing to drink this poison. I will come to understand the poison I’ve bestowed upon myself, consume it, and make the power my own.”
I expressed my thoughts into words, emphasizing my wish.

“Please, offer me the opportunity to display my resolve. A chance to obtain an eye that will emit even more poison through my gaze. A curse that will cascade poison into the bodies of my enemies!”
The fog was swallowed up.
It was being absorbed ceaselessly by the venom within the tea bowl.
Without a sound, without light, without a smell, yet the venom had certainly changed.
Then, just like last time, a tea bowl filled with a deep green liquid was left over.

“Appraise.”
I appraised it, same as I had done before.
Only, I already knew that it was poisonous, but I was still prepared to drink it all.

▽▽▽▽▽

“Plus, huh…..”
I picked up the tea bowl.
Without a doubt, the poison in it was far stronger than the previous one.
But that’s exactly why this was…… interesting, pleasant, and worth the taste.

“Nn!?”
With a natural smile, I downed the contents of the tea bowl in a single gulp.
Then, the changes came immediately.

“AAAAAAAAAAAKRGVKTDWSHIIGSSZSAGRG!!”
Due to the properties of the poison, the burning of my tongue, the scorching of my throat, and the incineration of my stomach were all within range of my expectations.
The similar taste to cooked sewage as well as the nauseating stench were both identical to how it was last time, so it wasn’t something to be particularly concerned over.
However, in addition to the previous experiences, my body reflexively let out a scream, disapproving of the pain that resembled being burned to ashes. I hearkened to the cries of thousands of rats. There was non-stop bloodshed as the skin on my entire body was torn to shreds and I was forced to expose my inner appearance.

“ATGIGVFVKPEFDKG!!”
I was even worried that the machine would make an emergency shut down from the swelling pulse of my heart, caused by my excitement towards the unknown.
Despite that, the remaining portion of my composure unfalteringly plunged my face into the restorative water gushing out of its bowl and whenever I lifted my head up to breathe, I would scoop up the water with my hands and spill it over my head.

“AHAHAA! AHAHAHAHAA!! IT BURNSTTAHYAHAHAHAHAAAAAaaaaaa!!”
A new power was imprinted in me.
Similar to as how your flesh and blood is formed from what you eat, the unknown becomes known and was etched into my soul.
My whole body tinged with mania and rejoiced in delight.

«Sorcery『Magic Eye Of Poison・1＋』has been acquired»
«Taru has risen to Level 6»
“Ahh, this sensation was truly, truly wonderful…… I hope to experience it again…..”
The poison subsided along with my fervor and in exchange, a notification appeared showing that the acquisition was successful.
Which is why I used the『Appraisal Loupe』on myself.

“It seems like the drain was a lot more relentless than last time, wasn’t it……”
My HP had not fully recovered.
It appeared that the burden was heavier compared to before.

“Anyways, what about the crucial topic at hand,『Magic Eye of Poison・1＋』?”
I followed with an appraisal of『Magic Eye of Poison・1＋』

△△△△△
『Magic Eye of Poison・1＋』
Level : 1
Interference : 100
CT : 10s – 5s
Trigger : [Chant Key]
Effect :
Inflicts poison depending on the target’s surrounding curse concentration x 1 + 1

The curse that you emit from your eyes have no regard towards your opponent’s armor, no matter how sturdy it is.
Reason being, the poison is directly produced from within your opponent’s body.
Caution : Every time you use it, you receive self damage based on the curse concentration around you x 1.
▽▽▽▽▽

“Nice, the pure upgrade was a success.”
It properly came with a fixed value and even if the curse concentration around the opponent was 0, the effect could still manifest.
Moreover, this effect would be beneficial if my opponent was in an area with high curse concentration as well.
Yep, the potentials of a fixed value was a wonderful thing.

“Chuu?”
“I can definitely say that it worked. Now then, I’ll have to think of counter-measures for whenever there were multiple enemies or groups.”
With this, the strengthening of my evil eye had turned out well.
That being so, the next thing to consider was how I would oppose the large number of rats in the 3rd layer.
