Chapter 4 – 01. A New Beginning
I hurriedly went up to the 15th floor where the stigma booth was located, and as I expected, the source of the old castle was there.
“Calm down sister!!”
“Let go!! Let go of this!!”
“So, customers, don’t be like that—”
“Sir Baal! Did you manipulate the odds? Uh? You’re the only one who didn’t come out, right?”
“We don’t do that! They’re doing it fairly!”
“Fairness sucks!! Even a three-year-old child knows that men have locked the odds, but does the word fair come out of his mouth?”
“Hmm… Hmmm. That, that’s just a wandering windmill, guest.”
It’s a splendid mess.
Her high-pitched banger who seems to be able to bring down her building with just her voice, and another woman who somehow rips her off.
And the NPC staff standing awkwardly in front of them.
It was a sight so familiar that I thought for a moment that I had returned to my hometown.
“But it really is too much. How many times has it already been today?”
“It’s 12 tras, including synthesis and achievement compensation?”
“And… 12 tons? I don’t even dare to try once, so how can I get 12…”
“It’s not a long line. I have to do it, what should I do?”
“Aren’t you going to die like that?”
And. Was it a line? Even Gilma?
It’s not just a gilma, but the master of a guild that dominates an area is completely gone? This is a bit of a problem. Isn’t stress hair loss coming?
“It’s such a shame when hair goes down on that face.”
It is the same for men, but for women, hair is life.
Hairless beauty? You’ll know if that’s the right thing to do if you ask your lower body.
“Anyway, meeting Rhine Gilma at this timing. How should I view this?”
My immediate goal is to reveal some of my abilities, get on the line and grow quickly, but the problem is that the timing is really bad right now.
I’m in such a bad mood, but I’ll go beyond absurd and go mad if a new kid asks me to join.
Even if I try to show off my abilities, the moment I show my normal equipment, I might get hit by what I’m doing. At least, considering that the chao penalty is enormous because it is inside the shopping mall, it ends with being beaten.
“Uh? It’s the legend-less Line Gilma Shin Seo-yul!”
Then someone said something I shouldn’t have said.
Even I, who have been through all the battles, did something I would never do.
Thanks to this, the atmosphere in the shop, which had been noisy with various disturbances, froze.
The line road that used to be crazy has also hardened, so you know what the atmosphere is like.
“How can you buy it because you’re embarrassed?”
The person who ruined the atmosphere dug up the people on the street and revealed himself.
Bad-tempered eyes and a refreshing smile.
Her hair was also tied in a ponytail, and she was dressed in a black full-body suit that fit like a motorcycle suit.
Looking at that, I’m just a person who uses a dagger.
“Gilma is only a hero, so can you control it? Now that this has happened, why don’t you just let go of control and get along well? I will help you. Huh?”
No matter what kind of guts she had, she came right up to Shin Seo-yul’s nose and smirked.
You have the guts to mock Rhine Gilma face-to-face. From the victim’s point of view, it’s really fucking embarrassing, but honestly, it’s kind of cool.
Shin Seo-yul, who was held by a woman who looked like a bugilma, shook her hand. Without stopping, she glared at the woman who had made her situation worse.
“… Did you come here because you wanted to find a fucking bitch? Kill me?”
“Kick. Can I?”
“I will win you.”
Shin Seo-yul is completely angry and stares at her with bloodshot eyes, while the dagger girl smiles smirkingly.
Honestly this…
From the start, Shin Seo-yul lost the fight… Line Gilma couldn’t pick a legend, how can you win?
“I guess so~. But the question is not whether you can win or not, but whether you can win or not? You can’t pick me up.”
“…”
“What do you do when you’re in trouble? Ber (return) is enough. You’re relatively low (status abnormality hit), so you can’t even stun properly.”
Pudeuk.
“Oh~. This is why we need a legend. That legend doesn’t exist. Tsk tsk tsk.”
As the situation got out of control, the Bugilma woman came out again.
As she came forward to embrace Shinseo Yul, she pushed her dagger on the shoulder.
“Hey, Jeon Yoo-hee. Don’t fight and get out.”
“Oh? Who is this? Aren’t you Seong Seung-hee, the Bugilma who was chosen as the legend instead of Gilma?”
At the dagger woman’s sarcasm, Seong Seung-hee swallowed her anger and shook her head.
“… Can’t you understand the atmosphere? Are you fat?”
“Is this what you’re trying to figure out?”
“…”
“And who are you to block me? Hey… No matter how many tag guilds, Bugilmatari blocks Gilma’s way? Did you pick a legend? Ah! Okay! It would be better for you to do it.”
“What the fuck is this bitch?”
“No, it is. Gilma is completely gone, but where can I say a line? Everyone else will laugh at you, but that shouldn’t be stopped. As a citizen of Incheon, how? ‘Incheon’s ruler is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who doesn’t want to hear something like this? I have pride as an Incheon citizen. It’s a metropolitan city, we.”
“Shut that mouth.”
“Hey, let’s be honest. Aren’t you embarrassing? Bugilma, you also picked a legend, but Gilma doesn’t have a legend. If it were me, I would have already beaten it.”
“Under. Sister, we just—”
“I will go home. Don’t follow me.”
“Uh, sister…”
It’s too hot.
I, who was only a middle-ranking guild’s leader, had a hard time with no jeon, but how much stress would I have received if the gilma of the region’s No. 1 line guild was jeon.
It’s only natural for a few words to blow your mind like that.
“What. Are you running away? The answer is no.”
Jeon Yoo-hee laughed and left the shop, ignoring Shin Seo-yul.
I was just going to watch it, but when the situation goes this far, I feel sorry for even strangers.
I feel like I want to comfort you, but there’s nothing I can do.
“Eh. Let’s do whatever we want to do.”
After Shin Seo-yul left, the situation was quickly sorted out.
Although Bugilma and Jeon Yu-hee remain, it should be said that something cannot be established with just those two.
The reason why people were gathered like that was because even though Shin Seo-yul played 12 rounds, there was still no legend, so they shuddered. With the biggest spectacle gone, it is natural for the crowd to disperse.
“Ah, but now that I think about it, I’m a man, so I don’t come out 10 times more, right? Write… It doesn’t look like anyone else.”
I came here to get rid of that despair, but for some reason, I think I added another despair.
“Fuck.”
.
.
“If you buy all of these, you only have 21LP left… Are you okay?”
Despite what the NPC staff said, I bought 10 pieces of basic equipment that cost 1LP each. 6 of them were purchased by type, so I will equip them, and I bought the other 4 as weapons that will be most in demand.
It will be edited later and sold on the exchange.
〈Basic One-Handed Sword (Normal)〉
Strength + 1
Melee Damage +3
First and foremost is the weapon.
It’s a really surprisingly simple ability. Not a single hit, a level of japtem that most people won’t get even if you give it to them.
But it’s a precious resource for me.
[You can edit the basic one-handed sword (general).]
Just ignorant editing.
Of course, this can also be done within the scope of ‘general’, but it is still easier than Stigma. High-end items are also on display in stores, and based on that, if you figure out the median price, it fits.
〈Basic one-handed sword (Normal+)〉
Strength + 2 (+1)
Melee Damage +4 (+1)
Ah…
But it’s too vague than I thought.
It’s all just adding 1 of the two stats. I couldn’t even land that important hit.
This is all because the ability of the advanced one-handed sword is the answer. The price is 10 times higher, and the ability is about 1-2 different from the normal item, so it looks like this even after editing.
“After… Still, it wouldn’t be bad if you approach it with value for money.”
Advanced shop equipment is 10LP each. There is not much difference from general items on that subject, but if the price is good, I think it will be competitive in its own way.
The problem is that you have to sell at the market price measured by the exchange.
“Let’s just go and see the market price.”
I will equip the one I edited now. Because you must have basic armaments.
But looking at it, is the price set a little decently? Then, I plan to initialize the cooldown with LP and proceed with editing. Although it consumes 1LP, it is advantageous because you can make a lot and sell a lot in a short amount of time. Only if it sells.
So I visited the exchange on the 14th floor with hope.
The exchange is operated by one nation, that is, by country, which means that you can search for listings posted all over Korea.
The basic interior is like a PC room. There are countless PCs and chairs, and it is a form of sitting down, searching, and ordering.
For reference, the first 30 minutes are free, but after that, an expensive seating fee of 10,000 won per hour is charged.
I didn’t sit down and went right into the appraisal center attached to one corner.
In order to post an item on the exchange, it must be appraised and priced.
Of course, there are quite a lot of people looking for it, so there are 10 booths in total. I entered Booth No. 9. A pretty woman wearing glasses spread lazily and was yawning at her.
“Haum… Welcome. What items did you come to post?”
“This one. I just want to see the price.”
I place her standard one-handed sword on it, and she pauses.
Then she let out a deep sigh and pushed the one-handed sword toward me.
“Customer? Basic general items sold at the shop for 1LP… Who will buy from the exchange?”
“If it was something like that, would I have brought it? Take a look.”
“… ?”
At my request, she examined the sword again.
What the hell is this idiot? It didn’t take long for her to look surprised as she was wearing the same face.
“… What is it? (Regular+)? It’s a grade I’ve never seen before!”
“My skills are rather good. You can slightly adjust the item’s stats. Those edited like that have a + after the rating.”
“Oh my God.”
She had a languid impression, but she was unable to speak for a while, covering her mouth with her hands, as if she was moved.
“Hmmmm. Well, it’s not that great, it’s worse than high-end items anyway, so it’s about 4-5LP in moderation–“
“It’s the first item I’ve ever seen in my life, and only customers can make it, so I can’t get it that cheap.”
“Yes? No wait.”
What are you talking about
If it sells expensive, who will buy it?
“20LP. That should be enough.”
“No, there. Yes? What is that-“
“No. Is this too little? I’ll do it for 30LP.”
Before I could say anything else, she slammed the magic seal on her one-handed sword.
Fuck?
