The 100th Regression of the Max-Level Player

Chapter 117: Elf's Reward (2)

I wont ask why there are traitors among you. Judging from your reactions, it seems you are also confused. Anyway, if not for Black Scythe, our princess might not have been safe. I use this opportunity to thank Black Scythe once again.

No, stop thanking me.

As Ryu Min was being thanked again, Yugrito finally said what Ryu Min wanted to hear.

Black Scythe. I have a gift I want to give you.

Yugrito pulled something out of his pocket.

Ryu Min eagerly took it, and a smile finally appeared on his face.

[You have received Elixir of Ultra Regeneration as a reward from Yugrito, captain of the Elsorium Knights.]

[Ryu Min received the Elixir of Ultra Regeneration as a reward from Yugrito, the Captain of the Elsorium Knights.]

[Elixir of Ultra Regeneration]

Category: Consumable

Grade: Legendary

Effect: Physical regeneration for 10 seconds

Usage restriction: Master level and above

Description: For 10 seconds, even if your body is torn apart, it will rapidly regenerate. However, the pain-induced mental breakdown is not covered.

Finally, Ive obtained it. The Elixir of Ultra Regeneration.

As the description implies, this elixir makes one virtually invincible for 10 seconds.

If used at the right moment, even if I die dozens of times, I can come back to life.

It was as if he had gained extra lives.

It was an item that needed to be used in the 15th round, so he carefully stored it in his inventory.

How generous to give such a precious item. Thank you.

Is there anything more precious than the life of a princess? To us elves, its as if we owe Black Scythe a debt we can never repay.

[Black Scythes reputation with the elves has risen from Neutral to Friendly.]

Ryu Min grinned as he saw the reputation change notification.

Anyway, thank you.

Its us who should be thanking you.

Just then, the knight waiting in front of the carriage approached Yugrito.

Jeriph. How is the princess?

She was startled, but shes much better now. However, she wants to personally thank her savior.

The princess? Understood. Black Scythe, this way please.

As Ryu Min and Yugrito approached the carriage, Eufinelcia, as if waiting, stepped down from it.

The moment she descended, a fervent reaction burst from those around.

Wow!

Incredible

Such beauty that would put even angels to shame.

Hello, warrior from the other world. I am Eufinelcia of Elsorium.

Call me Black Scythe.

Ryu Min spoke informally to the princess.

Yet, neither the princess nor the other elves seemed to mind.

With my reputation already favorable, nothing I do should be a problem.

As long as he doesnt betray them, he will be treated well by the elves for life.

I heard you saved me. I dont know how I could ever repay this debt

No need to repay. I only did what was right.

Elves appreciate those who respect the law and have a great sense of duty.

Ryu Min intentionally used such words to build favor.

A strict impression in accordance with elves rules will be helpful in many ways.

Sure enough, the way Yugrito and the other knights looked at Ryu Min subtly changed.

Humans are humans, even if they are lifelong benefactors.

But his current statement slightly blurred the line they had drawn between them.

Its all about gradually increasing favorability. Especially gaining the princesss favor will be excellent.

He was well aware of what the elf princess liked, so it wouldnt be too hard.

Please stay inside. I will guard outside the carriage. Even if it costs me my life.

Ah, th-thank you.

Eufinelcia, far from feeling burdened by the statement of sacrificing his life, blushed and hurried back into the carriage with a faint smile on her lips.

Yugrito approached Ryu Min with a surprised look.

Ive never seen the princess smile like that before.

Really?

It seems she feels reassured by Black Scythes protection.

Then, thats good.

Ryu Min reassured Yugrito as well.

The princess is under my protection, just focus on getting us to our destination.

We are grateful for that.

Yugrito smiled and reassuredly headed back to his formation, and the journey continued.

Kyaaakt!

Aaargh!

The monsters continued to attack elves and humans, and Ryu Min accumulated experience points with his scythe each time.

During the 30 waves, the monsters never once approached the princess, guarded by the immense wall that was Black Scythe.

Truly a reliable sight; Yugrito approached to express his respect.

I knew Black Scythe was no ordinary person, but I never imagined youd be this powerful.

Is that so?

Thanks to you, we could safely escort the princess. Thank you.

Yugrito looked regretful as he thanked him.

It was time to part ways with their benefactor.

Eufinelcia seemed to know this too, as she peeked out of the carriage.

Um Black Scythe?

What? Is there something you want to say?

Well no.

She withdrew her head as if having second thoughts, then peeked out again.

Will there be a day we meet again?

Ryu Min spoke indifferently.

Yes. Until then, dont forget about me.

Eufinelcia, momentarily dazed, didnt respond and withdrew back into the carriage.

Shes shy.

The elf princess unexpectedly liked cheesy lines.

Soon it was time.

[Time to arrival at destination: 00:00:00]

As the timer reached zero, Yugrito sharply bid farewell.

Warriors of the other world. Thank you for your efforts. We wont forget the favor of escorting us safely to our destination. We hope to meet again with smiles.

Clip-clop, clip-clop-

The carriage caravan moved forward, and Yugrito gave a final eye greeting to Ryu Min.

Eufinelcia, looking out of the carriage window, watched Ryu Mins departing figure with a shy, reddish face.

[You have safely escorted the Elf Guild to its destination.]

[You have completed the Guard the Elf Guild quest.]

[Shortly, experience points will be awarded as a success reward for the escort.]

[The amount of experience given is twice the number of monsters hunted by you and your party.]

The experience reward came in as it concluded.

Ive leveled up to 78.

A satisfying level indeed.

Above all, he had built a reputation with the elves and obtained the desired elixir.

As the time for parting approached, Heo Taeseok wore a regretful expression.

Black Scythe-nim, its a shame we have to part now.

Whats there to regret? Well see each other again.

Oh.

That statement seemed to deeply move Heo Taeseok, his expression turned blank again, as if smitten.

Will I will I also be able to see you again, Black Scythe-nim?

Eom Jun-Seok, standing beside him, asked timidly, and Ryu Min nodded.

That alone made him smile happily.

That made him feel like a full-fledged follower, not just a candidate.

Shall I go to the human guild now?

Ryu Min disappeared.

The last Guild remained.

Not one to protect, but one to destroy.
