Tone-Deaf Healer Kills with Song – Episode 024
By viewing the Ragnarok Guide, you formally agree to register with the Valkyrie Network and become a member of Baldur.
Viewing is voluntary, but choosing not to view may result in restrictions to the search functions provided by the Valkyrie Network.
I forced my drowsy eyes open and carefully read through the lengthy terms and conditions that followed below.
I couldn’t afford to be scammed by those exalted beings from another realm.
Apart from special provisions, there was nothing that troubled me.
The terms and conditions may be deleted or added upon agreement with the assigned staff member.
Upon the contractor’s death, all data is backed up to the Valkyrie Network. The exclusivity of unique skills also terminates upon death.
If the assigned staff member dies or disappears, no replacement staff member will be assigned.
In truth, these were all things I already knew. After my death, what happened to my skills or anything else wasn’t really my concern.
I’d heard that staff members did die occasionally, but if Liri was a higher-tier staff member than Lucy, there was no reason she’d die before me.
What troubled me was the final section.
This guide may have different contents depending on each contractor. Additionally, sharing the contents of this guide with others is strictly prohibited. If such contents are shared, restrictions may be applied to the search functions provided by the Valkyrie Network.
There was nothing more important to see. If I didn’t view this in the first place, my functions would be restricted anyway, and my life as a Hunter would essentially be over.
I realized that even those who had awakened but later abandoned the Hunter’s life might have given it up because of this.
Usually, those with too much suspicion might give up.
Too exhausted to think further, I simply began viewing.
Ragnarok is a type of anomalous phenomenon artificially induced by ■. To prevent this phenomenon, which exists solely for destruction, Baldur created the Valkyrie Network and granted special abilities to those with potential. Awakened individuals who receive these abilities must clear Dungeons to prevent the destructive phenomenon.
Gates continuously appear and generate Dungeons. There are both persistent Dungeons that occur continuously and temporary one-time Dungeons. To aid the survival of awakened individuals within, Baldur assigns dedicated staff members.
After that, various stories easily found in the community were written like tips.
It wasn’t difficult to infer that people had written various tip posts after seeing this guide.
As I flipped through the pages and read lightly, the chapters quickly progressed.
Awakened Individual: Yeom Ye-ah
Now it was my personal page. Information about me finally began.
Class: Harmonic Healing Sorcerer
In the case of Yeom Ye-ah, as a Harmonic Healing Sorcerer, she can utilize sound to provide healing and buffs. Depending on how she operates the music, it can also be used for offense or defense.
From now on, the ‘Music Search’ function is being opened. Music that Yeom Ye-ah has acquired voluntarily or through various items will be stored in the Valkyrie Network and can be searched from the list if needed. However, with your current stats, voluntary search is not possible, so please inquire with your assigned staff member.
It was saying that because my singing and creative technique abilities were poor, I ultimately had to rely on Liri.
I flicked my forehead and turned the page.
Debuff: Yeom Ye-ah
Awakened individual Yeom Ye-ah is currently under the ‘Labyrinth’ debuff status. This debuff severely suppresses stat awakening.
Would you like to inquire about the Labyrinth Debuff?
Debuffs—the chronic ailment of Hunters.
Many acquire them after entering Dungeons, and most develop them simultaneously with awakening.
About seventy percent of Hunters don’t know the cause, while thirty percent can identify where they came from. Of those, about sixty percent are ‘common debuffs’ with discoverable solutions, while forty percent are called incurable debuffs.
Working part-time at the Hunter-exclusive Convenience Store, it wasn’t difficult to see people watching Hunter videos.
-The problem is that debuff names aren’t intuitive. There are ones like Paranoia, Water Poison, and Blindness, but there are also things like Paranormal Activity, Collapse, and Treasure Hunt.
-So when you encounter debuffs with unknown names, what do you do? The Hunter Association can’t help with those.
-Ha! What can you do? You just have to endure. Do you know what my debuff is? Mechanical Incompetence—that’s it. If I hadn’t gotten that guide after entering a Dungeon three times, things would’ve gone badly.
That YouTuber probably ended up dying after getting caught in a Dungeon Break.
Of course, I couldn’t be certain. Since I’d never expected to awaken, I’d only listened through my earbuds without truly engaging.
I flipped over in bed and pulled up my status.
Displaying debuffs.
Labyrinth: How could one who possesses no thread, who cannot even discern whether to choose the right-hand rule or the left-hand rule, ever hope to glimpse an exit? The suppression of ability is, in the end, a punishment bestowed upon those who have lost their way.
‘What is this supposed to mean?’
Displaying detailed information on the Labyrinth debuff.
Mana manipulation is being suppressed from within. To achieve status growth, one must sufficiently utilize mana and invest in skill usage, yet the directional sense for this has been lost. Since personal mana output is being suppressed, development has been reduced to 0.2 times that of others.
Mana manipulation originates above all from ■■■ in ■■. The Labyrinth debuff applies to those who are suppressing this capability within themselves, and it persists until the situation is remedied. External assistance may be partially obtained, but the fundamental cause lies with the contractor themselves.
So what is this saying?
Is my tone-deafness due to my nature? I can’t even understand what the blurred text means.
It’s true that my tone-deafness is innate, but that wasn’t what I wanted to hear. No matter how poorly I sing, shouldn’t effort lead to improvement?
“■■■ doing ■■? …the desire to sing? Ah, that’s four characters. De, the desire to sing. The meaning is different from that.”
The habit of talking to myself, developed from living alone, simply wouldn’t break.
As I stared blankly at the guide, the page naturally turned.
Currently unopened special statuses will be unlocked when the Labyrinth debuff is removed. If the Labyrinth debuff is not removed within one year, it will intensify into a ‘Labyrinthine’ debuff.
Mana is an additional ability that Baldur deliberately awakened in awakeners to counter the waves of Ragnarok within dungeons. Therefore, the Labyrinth and Labyrinthine debuffs are weakened inside dungeons. If you seize that opportunity, it will aid in debuff removal.
The Ragnarok guide was created to support awakeners in their continuous dungeon entries. As the number of dungeon entries increases, additional accessible information will be added.
You may access it regardless of location or the availability of staff responses, so please utilize it conveniently in various situations. Thank you.
All accessible information regarding awakener Yeom Ye-ah’s current situation has been reviewed. To review again, you may return to the first page.
In short, this is what it means.
I am currently suppressing my own stat growth, either unconsciously or due to some internal issue.
And to resolve it, I have no choice but to make constant efforts on my own.
The debuff is suppressing mana, but since mana itself becomes relatively more active inside dungeons, it will aid in removal.
Summarized in one line, it comes down to this.
‘Enter dungeons more! Otherwise, there’s no debuff removal for you.’
What kind of dilemma is this? To enter dungeons more, my stats need to improve, but for my stats to improve, I need to enter dungeons more.
I wanted to become an adult who could manage well on my own, but if this is how it is, I have no choice but to rely on at least Liri, or at most the Guild Master’s strength again.
Even as fatigue buzzed through my head, I had to keep making judgments until the very end. I didn’t want to be a burden. Especially not to someone as busy as Jung Hwan-jae.
‘Either expand my connections with others or find a way to enter alone… Liri is okay, but Jung Hwan-jae is not.’
No, no. Repeating those words like a habit in my mind, my consciousness gradually faded.
