While Han Se-ah continued her peculiar stream, eyes tightly shut and head lowered on the table due to the distorted screen, I discreetly browsed the internet.
Seeing Han Se-ah's magic missile makes my heart ache.
I posted some advice on what magic she should learn next; after her hangover debuff wears off, of course.
Thanks to Irene's divine energy massage, she should recover soon.
What spells did mages use on the 21st floor with its cave terrain?
I tapped on the holographic internet window, trying to recall.
If I remember correctly, they fended off the vampire bats with wind magic.
Seeing Han Se-ah's magic missile makes my heart ache.
It's heart-aching to see her focus on damage after mentioning CC last time...
She should just use wind spells to disrupt flying and wall-climbing.
It's actually triggering seeing her forget her own words and think only of damage output instead of crowd control.
In the narrow caves, ice leaves behind fragments that hinder our vanguards as well.
When you're in a party, you should prioritize team synergy over damage output.
In the end, the principles haven't changed from the lower floors.
Don't obstruct allies, hinder the enemies, conserve your mana, and deliver a powerful blow when needed.
Regardless of whether the enemy stands on four legs, climbs walls with eight, or even flies, the basics remain the same.
Tanks block, swordsmen slash, and mages do what their fighters can't with their magic.
Ah, maybe it's thanks to the massage, but it seems the debuff is wearing off a bit. It's sad for Grace, but all we can do is cheer her on. Considering the amount she drank last night, it's impressive she made it this far. She could have stayed in bed, and no one would have blamed her for it.
While I was posting on the forum, Han Se-ah, whose debuff had somewhat worn off, managed to lift her head.
Of course, Grace, who genuinely overdrank, still had her head buried in the table.
Even Kaiden, typically stoic, looked restless, unable to leave Grace's side.
Honestly, one could mistake her for a zombie.
"...Should we give her a potion or something?"
"That might be best. Maybe The Alchemist's Guild sells a hangover recovery potion?"
Thus, with Irene's divine energy support and Kaiden's assistance, Grace was carried back to her lodgings like a sack of potatoes.
She had downed every drink offered to her, leading to her current state.
Left in the guild was a slightly groggy Han Se-ah and a completely sober me.
She gave me a questioning look.
"Umm... Are you waiting for me, Roland?
Im thinking of heading to the Magic Tower. How are you feeling? You need to learn new magic, and we need to claim our rewards for the 20th floor.
Oh, right.The debut release of this chapter happened at Ñòv€l-B1n.
-Did she forget?
-What, is this a drug deal? LOL
-Could he be scamming the rewards?
-They look so serious, what are they talking about?
-That smiling guy? He doesn't look the type to scheme anything.
Viewers commented, chuckling, assuming nothing significant would be discussed.
After all, he wasn't a high-ranking mage, just a mid-tier one in charge of distributing rewards.
I shared their sentiments until the mage, with a serious expression, continued.
Its not a big deal... but if you're planning to ascend past the 21st floor, I'd like you to collect various mosses from the caves."
That sounds simple enough.
Couldnt you have made this request through the guild?
Hehe, Miss Hanna, if I request through the guild, theyll take a commission. If we mages deal directly, we can avoid that."
At Han Se-ahs words, the middle-aged mage furrowed his brows in a peculiar manner.
While she was suspicious of his odd expression, her eyes widened upon discovering a system window.
She started reading intently, ignoring the mage who slunk away.
She either forgot to show her stream, or she was teasing her viewers, but only her eyes moving back and forth, left to right, were visible.
[ReadingAloneDuringStreamHanSeAh donated 5,000 won!]
Don't just look at the good stuff yourself, let's see it together!
What the, that message... hahaha!
Han Se-ah burst into laughter, caught off-guard by the text-to-speech*.
Then, as if she was a thief feeling guilty, she gestured to me.
In-game speech might be indecipherable to NPCs, but gestures and laughter aren't.
She began explaining to me.
"Roland, you know I picked up some alchemy, right?"
"Yeah, didn't you learn a bit when you made that wolf lure on the 10th floor?"
She subtly shifted her eyes and, pretending to sort out her thoughts, started sharing the quest window with the increasingly excited viewers.
[Intermediate mage Bastian is becoming increasingly concerned about his widening forehead]
[Can the moss found on the middle floors of the Tower be a miracle cure?]
"I've heard that moss from the 21st floor can be used for hair loss treatment... Is that true?"
"...I wouldn't know. I've never taken on such a request."
-Those with lush hair will never understand the feelings of a bald man
-When even magic fails, one must turn to alchemy
-A legendary, incurable condition
-I get that it's a side quest, but it feels a bit... off.
-I'm sorry, I was wrong. I'll wash you properly. It itches, but I won't scratch. Please come back, my dear hair.
So thats why he didn't make the request through the guild...
