Never Die Extra (Edited)

Chapter 16: Evan D. Sherden| Either way, starting a side job (1)

Evan D. Sherden| Either way, starting a side job (1)

Three months have passed since then.

From the point of time when Evan recovered his memories of his past life, it was about 200 days.

Shine didn’t even notice how many days have passed as he goes through spiritual training, butler training, and double-swordsmanship training.

Belois continued training with the chief maid and trained with Evan with the lamp. Unknown to Evan, she also trained with the Marquis’ wife secretly.

<Squeak!>

Meanwhile, Evan was still killing slimes.

However, it was much faster and easier than before!

I didn’t expect the artifact growth effect would be so great, he thought, as he popped slimes on both hands.

<Squeak!>

<Squeak!>

Three months ago, after the artifact grew once, his slime training changed significantly.

The biggest change, of course, is that he can now pop slimes on both hands, which doubles the training speed.

As the speed of summoning increased, the training of his Grip skills also doubled.

His grip strength gradually grew stronger faster, so naturally, it resulted in the third benefit.

He can now kill slimes in 2.5 seconds on his right hand and 1.5 seconds on his left!

But that’s not all.

His mana recovery rate also increased. At first, he thought it was insignificant, but it wasn’t.

His break, which originally took 2 hours, has been reduced by 20 minutes.

Besides, only one of the jewels had lit up, and this necklace has dozens of jewels on it. It means that the potential for growth is endless; he thought excitedly.

Evan, who was originally worried about the growth of the necklace, was excited to use the necklace and grow it even further.

Thanks to that, Evan made some changes to his future plans.

The necklace of Miraseul will rise to some extent after my existence level rises. In other words, the level of the summoned slime is also likely to rise. It will be difficult, but at the same time, the experience value given by the slime will increase. The Grip strength is also continuously improving, so I will still be able to kill slimes even if their level rises.

If it goes as he thought, he doesn’t need to take off the necklace.

If that’s the case, he should be more afraid of the knife that Maybell will bring with her one day.

“Did you call me, Sir?”

“What?! I didn’t call you!”

Evan was shocked! He had only thought of her, but the door opened slightly, and she peeked in!

Fortunately, he was on break from killing slimes.

“Maybell, this is the last time I’ll tell you. If you come in one more time without me calling, I will really fire you.”

“Huh? But you obviously called me… Ah, I get it. I will definitely knock first!”

When Evan looked really angry, Maybell cried and bowed her head.

There is no malice.

However, her seemingly psychic ability to hear Evan’s thoughts was a big problem.

How did that happen?

Evan thought, looking at her head. She may be doing this more because Evan kept pushing her away.

Maybell is older than Evan, but in the end, she was just a 13-year-old child. At the end of the day, Maybell couldn’t attack Evan with a knife right now, so he may be overreacting.

Rather, it may be better to keep a close relationship with her.

“Maybell.”

“Yeah?”

“Are you receiving special training from the chief maid?”

“Sure! The chief maid also said that one of my enthusiasm is the best in the world!”

That’s a common saying for children who don’t work well, Evan thought, but he swallowed his words.

“Yeah, thank you. You’re working for me well.”

“Young master…! Then, are you making me your exclusive maid!”

“No, I’m still thinking about it.”

Evan sighed. “By the way…”

“Yes, young master?”

“… … Okay, I think it’s time to start the next step.”

Evan looked down on his body, which was quite stronger compared to half a year ago.

At this point, he can afford not to be scared of sudden falls while walking down the street.

Moreover, Shine and Belois are also adapting well.

Yes, it’s really time to start… Immortality Project Number Three… All you can eat!

Mandok-bulchim is a word commonly used in martial arts novels read by women in his past life.

It means a body that poison could not invade, with resistance built close to immunity.

It can be seen as a kind of state.

In the Yo-ma Great War series, there is a way to achieve a level similar to that of Mandok-bulchim.

Poison was a staple element that appeared everywhere in the series, so building a resistance to it was helpful.

Even the slimes he had been squashing secrete a weak acid poison. In the dungeons, scary monsters spit out more variants of poison. Even a final boss, Yomawang, has an attack that included several kinds of poisons along with magic.

However, despite the toxic elements scattered throughout the game along everyone’s path, Evan has died of poison more than anyone else.

Poisoned from a trap, killed by poison gas for mishandling artifacts, even poisoning himself while doing a self-study!

So, I really need to build up a resistance.

As there are countless poisons in the Yo-ma Great War, there are also multiple skills and various resistances that allow you to take less damage from them.

Among them are physical resistance and magic resistance that can be obtained from other players, or even NPCs.

The training method is really simple.

All you have to do is get poisoned and not die.

Repeatedly.

However, if you practice resistance training with the same poison, the efficiency gradually decreases, so it had to be changed periodically.

There are various types of poison in the series, such as ones that damage you repeatedly until the moment of detoxification or death, some are hidden and then take your life by bursting within you at once. Some do damage but does not affect much after a certain period of time.

There are so many types of poison that most players don’t familiarize themselves with, even if they have repeatedly finished the series.

Ta-da, surprisingly, Evan had suffered multiple endings dying at least once with every existing poison in Yo-ma Great War 3. As one of the few Evan enthusiasts, I am confident I know best about poisons!

Yes. He is already a poison expert, an expert! At least in theory!

Training. I have to practice.

In order to practice poison tolerance, it is necessary to first be infected with poison.

Evan, who has trauma in the word ‘poison,’ is terrified of it and has put it off until now…

Unlike Maybell’s attack, which would surely come far in the future, there was no guarantee that he would not encounter poison one of these days. He can never know when he could be poisoned. He must put Immortality Project Number 3 into operation!

It’s because poison tolerance training isn’t really easy… …

He has to prepare all kinds of poisons and their corresponding detoxification methods!

The rule of those who wanted to explore poison tolerance was only one.

You can’t try it without money. Don’t start unless you have a lot in stock.

Only

Of course, the Marquis of Sheridan has a lot of money, but he can’t just take it out himself.

There was something else in Evan’s mind. In the last half-year, as he trained his body, he has also thought a lot about it.

“I’m thinking of starting a small business,” he told Maybell.

“A business? What are you talking about? Aren’t you too young?”

“Huh… Well, there is a problem with my age, so I have to find a proxy… We’re going to get a little busy from now on.”

“We?”

Evan nodded to the confused Maybell.

“You’re not my exclusive maid, but… work with me, Maybell.”
