Chapter 18. Useless Saint
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
The saints HP displayed on the status screen was 19,500. Even now, I couldnt believe that she had that much health. Shes only good for tanking
Should we just ask each other questions about each other?
The saint retorted in an annoyed tone at Necros suggestion.
Should we hold another vote? Like a proper democracy?
Why are you angry at me?
Who should I be angry at, then? Ah! I suppose we can hold a vote to choose that as well?
Girl really had a temper.
Now, now. You can put off the lovers quarrel for later.
The two immediately shouted back at me.
Lovers my ass!
Who said were lovers?!
So shy, they are.
The conversation isnt getting anywhere.
I said this, and immediately threw a question.
First off, your titles. Its not important, but Why do you have two titles of a saint? Its quite strange, dont you think? Does the system just award titles to people who gets called by said title a lot?
The saint stiffened a little. But before anything got weirder, Necro shook away the question as if it was nothing.
Dont worry about it, dont worry about it! Its just a title.
I could tell how shaken he was.
Like you said, it just sticks when people call you by a certain title. Thats how it is.
Feels like youre hiding something...
No, no! Im not hiding anything! Its not like you get stats when you get a title anyway, so why are you so interested in it? Move on, move on!
I asked my next question with a suspicious feeling.
Then tell me next about why you have -30 stats to your health regen...
Thats!
Again, Necro paled when I asked this question. The question was directed at the saint though Was he supposed to be her manager or what?
What was she hiding?
That title, and the -30 to the health regen. I couldnt tell what they were planning.
Its fine.
The saint raised her hand, and stopped Necro.
Ill explain it myself.
She took off the bracelet on her left arm, and put it on the table. It was shaped in the form of a snake biting its tail.
[Snake of Infinity = Ouroboros]
- Rank: D+
- Strengthens the effect of autophagy.
One word in particular struck out to me.
Autophagy?
In laymans terms, it would basically meant the cells would consume themselves. The saint responded to this casually.
Its a diet bracelet.
.......
So thats where the -30 to her health regen came from. But that cant be the reason why Necro was so agitated. As I thought, lies were mixed into this.
So, what are the other items, then?
The saint began to put all her items, except for her dragon boots, on the table. Ill start off with the strange ring with spikes on it.
[Devourer Ring]
- Rank: D+
- Instantly digests all food that is eaten, and allows one to eat up to three times ones own weight.
A diet bracelet and a ring that lets you eat a lot...
Im supposed to make a disappointed face here, right? It was a stupid pair of items, after all. I tried thinking about the average persons reaction to such a thing, and imitated it.
......
The saint didnt respond. I wonder why? Wasnt she supposed to tackle me here? Whatever. Lets move on.
[Frog Wallet]
- Rank: C
- A frog wallet every wizard from the Abyss possesses. Only the owner of the wallet can open it, and the wallet is big enough to contain about 500 liters of water. It is possible to take in objects bigger than the wallet itself.
Ive seen it several times before. The saint used it to store books and teacups inside. Next is A beautiful ring. It was created with a combination of green, blue, and red gems to form a flower.
[Promise of a Fairy King]
- Rank: C-
- A ring that allows one to receive help from a fairy. However, it does not grant wishes.
So fairies did exist.
Ive seen enough of the items. Now, what kind of magic can you use?
The saint grinned, as if she had been waiting for this question, and showed me her list of skills.
[Shining Buster]
- The saints ultimate attack. She gathers holy power in her fist and punches. The afflicted area becomes healed. Be sure to cooly shout the name of the skill upon use.
[Shining Low Kick]
- The saints ultimate attack. She gathers holy power in her legs and kicks. The afflicted area becomes healed. Be sure to cooly shout the name of the skill upon use.
[Shining Dempsey Roll]
- The saints ultimate attack. She gathers holy power in her hips
I threw the list in front of me to the side.
Are you stupid?!
Ive never seen someone so useless!
You just put the word shining in front of everything! And since people get healed when you hit them, your attacks are meaningless!
She heals by beating on her allies. This was the saints fighting method. The saint puffed up her nonexistent chest.
Ahem! Just what do you think of me as? Im a white magician. I dont have any skills that harm. Ah! Of course, its possible for me to use light and water magic.
I scrolled through the list of skills. Every single one of them were strange blessings and healing skills. She had no attack skill.
Im damn good at healing you know. Ah, using them on you should be super painful, though.
That was the problem. If I wasnt dead, Id have gotten a lot of help from her, but right now, I was a corpse. I didnt synergize properly with the saint.
You should learn an attack skill.
The saint smirked.
I only need Shining Buster to beat you up.
Thats pretty much verbal abuse?!
Oh dear. You seem to be unaware of what healers do in a party. This is why newbies are...
The saint crossed her arms and showed me a face full of disappointment. What was up with her confidence? Was there something that I didnt know as a newbie to this world?
Just what is the role of the healer?
The saint raised her chin after hearing this question.
The queen.
What the hell is that?!
Mm...
She seemed to be deep in thought. After thinking for a bit, the saint asked a question back at me.
A person who gets served? Maybe?
...I give up. Ill just have to cross her off the list of combat capabilities. Shes dumb, too.
Im done with the saint. Now, Necro.
What do you mean, youre done?! I feel hurt?
Yeah, whatever.
Eh? What? Youre done already?
Necro stood up when he heard his name being called.
Ok, just wait a second. Let me put on my equipment.
You can just show me.
I have to wear it later anyway.
I thought what he was fiddling with was a brown belt, but upon closer inspection, I found that it was a human spine. When it was put it on his back, the spine stuck itself on.
Kigigigi!
Bones resembling centipede legs came out to cover Necros body. It was almost like Necro had his ribs growing outside of him.
[Bone Collector]
- Rank: C
- A magic armor shaped like a skeleton. Can shapeshift depending on how much danger the user is in. It can create various bone equipment, and it helps the user cast magic spells that uses bones.
- Bone Mountain: Collects bones in an alternate dimension. The collected bones are used to fix the Bone Collector when it gets damaged.
This is my main armor. My weapon is...
Necro took out a knife from of his coffin, spun it on his hand once, and put it in his scabbard.
It was the weapon that ate the children.
Gebesh. Remember it? The knife that eats flesh. Its stats are awesome and all, but theres one problem with it.
Problem?
Its cursed. If I just leave it out, a cannibalistic demon gets summoned at night. Quite a troublesome one to boot.
A demon...
Yeah, it exists. It doesnt even have skin, and yet its damn hard to kill. Gets pretty annoying. Thats why I decided to seal it up while I use it. Its still pretty good, though. Cuts well.
He should probably be able to use that in his necromancy as well. He might use Gebesh and the Bone Collector to create a meat puppet. I summed up my feelings for that weapon in one sentence.
Looks like itd appear in a horror movie.
Right? I always ask people to do a test of courage using this knife, but they all refuse. I dont get them.
Of course theyd refuse.
Hey, what about this is so wrong? Isnt it fun? Pretty real?
You can revive with Overdeath whenever you want.
This guy wasnt sane either. Necro sat down on the sofa.
Despite being a murderer, youre kind of a coward, arent you?. Isnt a murderer supposed to be friends with a cannibalistic demon?
You think Im a monster?
You are a monster though. Ever seen a corpse talk?
I want to talk to someone normal. I ignored Necro and checked out Gebeshs stats.
+0.2 to health regen.
Since a normal persons health stat was 10, holding it for fifty seconds would heal just about any wound. Of course, it wasnt anything compared to the saints health regen, but Suddenly, a question came into my head.
Do you actually know how to use knives?
Do I know how to?
Necro grinned, took out the knife, and threw it. The knife managed to slice a centipede on a column perfectly in half.
Didnt It tell you? If you dont throw away the stereotypical view of a mage in this world, youre going to get killed really fast? You cant think of them as normal scholars. Think of them as demons equipped with guns. Thats what a mage is in this world.
I turned to look at the saint.
A demon, huh...
The saint, who had been munching on a cream bun on the sofa, hugged her bread as if it was going to get snatched right away from her. Her puffed up cheeks reminded me of a squirrel.
Uumph omph mmph omm?
Omph..? How dare she act cute. This damn useless saint.
