Magnus of Ice

BENEFITS! Pt.2

When Jin-Ah got home, neither Jin-Woo nor Magnus were there. This was nothing new as she assumed they were still out with the attack force. 'Well, today didn't rain, so I didn't run into any troubled ex-athletes.' She thought as she went to her room, getting ready to shower and do some homework as she waited for her brother and her Magnus-Oppa. 'I wonder what we'll be eating today.'

Stopping by the cafe, Jin-Woo opened the door with the key he received from Magnus. "Mags. I got the food and beer; let's go eat!" Jin-Woo called out. "Okay," was his reply as Magnus left the backroom. With the sun setting, Magnus and Jin-Woo made their way home, unaware that their information was being dug up. "Why chicken wings? Did something good happen?" Jin-Ah asked as she placed a wing into her mouth.

"Yes. Two things happened today." Magnus responded first as he sat next to Jin-Woo on the couch, sipping a can of beer, slowly causing his irritation to build up. "One was good and the other one... Well, we aren't sure if it's good or bad yet...." Jin-Woo said, his irritation increased as he drank a can of beer. "Wow. So what happened then? You're usually so stingy that Magnus-oppa needs to cook fried chicken."

"Hey, are you saying my fried chicken isn't good?" Magnus asked, with tears welling up in his eyes, ready to turn around and bury his face into Jin-Woo's neck. With wide eyes, Jin-Ah gets up from the floor, waving her hands in front of her as she says, "No. No. I would never say that. Magnus-oppa's fried chicken is delicious. I just know that oppa doesn't really like spending money." Satisfied by her answer, he nods and takes another swing of his beer. 'Fuck off.' He thought as he saw a notification rise from both him and Jin-Woo.

'I wanted to get drunk, but I can't feel the alcohol at all... Because of a special ability that the system gave me, even alcohol is being purified. It looks like Magnus got the exact same ability.' Jin-Woo thought as he saw Magnus getting irritated at the system from the corner of his eye. Jin-Ah was the only one eating the fried chicken, as Jin-Woo and Magnus were stuck in thought. 'A reward the system gave me as soon as I woke up after making it through the double dungeon disaster... I think Magnus and I got it simultaneously, but he got a different second ability.' Taking another sip, he placed a hand around Magnus's waist, bringing him closer. 'Since there's been a lot to take in recently, I, no, we completely overlooked it... To think it gave us this as a reward.' At this thought, the quest reward screen he was thinking about popped up.

[QUEST REWARD: 'SECRET QUEST: COURAGE OF THE WEAK' -GREAT SPELLCASTER KANDIARU'S BLESSING: THE GREAT SPELLCASTER KANDIARU HAS GIFTED A SPECIAL SPELL TO YOU. KANDIARU'S BLESSING WILL ENSURE THAT YOU WILL ALWAYS BE STRONG AND HEALTHY DURING YOUR LIFETIME.]

'Cure poison... It's annoying, but I think it's beneficial. The second one was interesting.' Magnus thought as Jin-Woo pulled him closer by the waist. Offering no resistance, he looks at the second ability he got from the system.

[CHILLING MIST {ACTIVE}: WHEN ACTIVATED, THE USER WILL BE SURROUNDED BY AN ICY CHILL MIST, BEING ABLE TO BE SHAPED HOWEVER THE USER DESIRES. 0 MANA]

'Hmm, it was pretty useful during the fight with those fucking cats.' Magnus thought as his own quest reward panel popped up.

[QUEST REWARD: 'SECRET QUEST: LOYALTY TO THE WEAK' -SAPPHIRE'S BLESSING: THE SAPPHIRE STAR HAS GIFTED YOU A SPECIAL SPELL. SAPPHIRE'S BLESSING WILL ENSURE THAT YOUR LIFE IS FILLED WITH LOYALTY AND HONESTY.]

'It's also thanks to the quest's rewards that both the leg I lost and the arm Mags lost were regenerated.' Jin-Woo thought as he wiggled his toes and squeezed Magnus's arm.

[QUEST REWARD: -TEMPORARY EFFECT 'WILL TO REHABILITATE:' ANY DISMEMBERED BODY PARTS ARE RESTORED. -PERMANENT EFFECT LONGEVITY: ALL DISEASES, POISONS, AND STATUS EFFECTS ARE HEALED, AND SLEEPING WILL GREATLY INCREASE REGENERATION ABILITY.]
