Chapter 5 – 01. A New Beginning
“It’s done. You can upload it now… Oh, you said you were just looking at the market price, right? Sorry. I was in a hurry.”
“Oh, no… Rather… Some price…”
I pleaded earnestly, but she was adamant.
“No. More than this is too expensive. No matter how much + is added, it’s still a normal item, right?”
“Therefore! It’s only a normal item, and its stats are lower than those of advanced items, so if you raise it to 30LP, who will buy it?”
“Oh? Why do you worry about that? Someone will buy it Because I need it.”
“No…”
I can’t speak.
Fuck. Then it is. I’ve never seen these NPCs help me in my life.
Aren’t they the ones who made the earth this shape in the first place? Everyone is frantic about earning LPs, and they probably don’t care about my circumstances.
“It’s done.”
I was so devastated that I left the booth without even saying hello.
Fuck.
Who knew it would turn out like this
No matter how expensive it is, I thought it would be set at around 7LP. Does 30LP make sense in the yard where high-end items are sold at 10LP in stores? He said it was a unique item that only I could make.
“If that’s the case, shouldn’t you have measured it with 100,000 LPs? Uh fuck.”
There is no real answer.
If this is the case, you have to go up step by step from the very bottom, but how long will it take? Even now I only have 21LP left. 121LP even if you take the emergency relief coming in tomorrow…
“Under… Really.”
“What is this? A new collection?”
“What? Is the collection new? Did you patch it?”
“No, there was no patch, but it suddenly appeared. What.”
Then the whispering voice.
…
New… Collection?
[Oh? Why do you worry about that? Someone will buy it Because I need it.]
No way?
“This basic one-handed sword is sold at the store.”
“But the grade is (Normal+) and the stats are a little better? What is (regular+)? Was there anything like this?”
“If I just buy it, can I get it with a certain probability?”
“It seems plausible. Let’s go.”
When I edit an item… Is there a new collection based on that?
If that’s the case, I can understand the price.
No, even 30LP is fucking cheap. It’s an exclusive supply that only I can make, but I have to put it in the collection.
It will probably be sold as soon as it is uploaded, and desperate people will be stuck on the exchange waiting for a sale all day.
A collection is a kind of encyclopedia, but if you print out a translucent album book that is only visible to you and insert items into it, the items will evaporate and become embedded in your collection.
If you embed items like that and hit a certain combination, you can get additional correction stats as a reward.
For example, in the equipment collection book
〈 Basic One-Handed Sword (Normal)〉 + 〈 Basic Two-Handed Sword (Normal)〉
Strength +1
If there is a condition like this, either buy it at the store or the exchange, get the item and put it in the slot there. If you match the combination like that, you can get the power 1 shown below.
Since it is permanent and the effect is applied all the time, the specification of the collection is steadily increasing.
For reference, one item is consumed per item, so it doesn’t end just by fitting one. If the item is included in another item, you will need to obtain it again and insert it.
It doesn’t matter if it’s a cheap general item, but if you have to put a hero item or a high-power item such as +7 multiple times, the burden will increase dramatically.
It can be said that it is not enough to embed it, but it depends on the type, but collections with essential options such as raising the main stat, short-range damage, long-range damage, and accuracy must be embroidered as a reward.
That way, you won’t fall behind in the competition and you can voice your voice in the guild.
In addition, while the number of items that can be equipped is limited, collections continue to accumulate stats just by registering, so the proportion of collections in specs increases exponentially as time goes on.
By the time my hometown was destroyed, the average owners accounted for 40-50%, and so-called rankers or line owners accounted for 70-80%.
Collections are just as important.
“Oh my God.”
I ran hurriedly to the woman who had been appraised.
I wanted to check it myself, but unfortunately I was level 1, so the collection system was not unlocked.
“Ah, I didn’t explain properly. Yes. All equipment items are registered in the collection list. A customer creates a new item, so of course a new collection is created around that item.”
“And…”
Hope began to appear again.
It is also a very bright hope.
The basic one-handed sword is only a general item, so the price should have been set like that, but what if the grade goes up?
Are (Advanced), (Rare), and (Heroic) items the same price?
No way.
Hero items are set at thousands to tens of thousands of points for pure equipment only. But it includes + that only I can make?
“… Later, when the continental auction house opens, I can really collect it like crazy.”
Later, when the region lock is released over time, you will be able to use exchanges across continents and countries. Then that many people will flow into the auction house, and of course there will be many people who will buy the + item I uploaded.
Although the price has to be appraised by the exchange staff, it is adjusted to some extent when there is an oversupply or oversupply.
That means the price could go up.
“I should make good use of this. First… It seems that when I edit a item, a new collection is created right away—”
For the time being, only basic one-handed swords will be edited.

“Fuck.”
Shin Seo-yul, who stormed out of the shopping mall and stormed into a nearby pizza restaurant, ate all the menus in the store and ate without paying attention to people’s eyes.
“Fuck it… Um. Jeon Yoo-hee… Bitch.”
She looked like she was eating a lot with the momentum to go to war right away.
I’m worried about something and I want to stop it, but I’m too afraid of the prestige I’m exuding, so I can’t even approach it, such a pitiful situation.
But the shop owner was carefree.
Because it happened often.
“Wait… I! Choose unconditionally. No!”
Bang!
When she finished eating, she knocked down the table and suddenly stood up from her seat and cried out.
“Become Korea’s first Shinhwa owner! Fuck bitch just wait When that time comes, even if you cry and cry and hang on to it, I will kill you again and again and I will make you say bye bye.”
After making a bloody declaration, he sits down again and eats infinitely.
Having consumed roughly half of her store’s ingredients, she stormed out in the same spirit she had stormed into her restaurant and headed back to the mall.
She was in a good mood, so it seemed that her intuition would be relieved if she strengthened her equipment.
“Let’s make Aksae the quarterfinals. Then it is mean reversion.”
The probability of success in the quarterfinals of Akse, which is destroyed in case of failure, is 11%.

Clap clap clap!
“Ruler! Fist!! Concentrate everyone!!!”
“?”
I quickly bought 5 more basic one-handed swords (general) and edited all one-handed swords while repeating skill reset 9 times.
Then he came to the auction house with 10 basic one-handed swords (Normal+) and drew people’s attention like a clown.
Even if I just sell it, it will be sold, but my immediate goal is to enter the line.
Raising your specs and collecting LPs are important, but whether you join the line or not, and whether you belong to the line or the line alliance are also very important criteria that determine your life.
It’s almost like an identity system?
Line is royalty
The line union is a noble
All others are commoners or slaves.
Roughly that much of a difference.
Back home I couldn’t get into the line.
At most, they were only the leaders of a suitable guild belonging to the ‘Line Alliance’ formed around the line.
But now I can get on the line well enough.
No, rather, the lines in each region will scramble to take me.
“What is that man?”
“Are you a beginner at just looking at it? Will it be level 10?”
“Ah, are you trying to give yourself a treat? Kick kick.”
“Uh. It seems to speak With a face like that, it’s possible.”
“Are you an aspiring celebrity?”
It seems like something strange is being said, but it succeeded in drawing people’s attention anyway.
“Well, as you know, a new collection has been added to you. It’s a basic one-handed sword (Normal+), an unheard-of item.”
“Brother, did you open the collection?”
“What level is it?”
“Adventure. Folks, that doesn’t matter. The important thing is that there are 10 items from that new collection right in front of your eyes.”
“Uh?”
Displayed one by one on the floor, deliberately attracting time and attention.
At first, people who were staring at me as if I was wondering what they were doing started to take a proper interest.
“What, what is that! Why are there 10 beginners with new collection items like that?”
“The collection was just added?”
“Where did you get it from?”
I got up slowly, enjoying their attention.
People’s eyes were slightly different.
“I didn’t get it from anywhere. I made it.”
“?!”
“Actually, I didn’t expect it to turn out like this. I thought it was just a skill that could tweak the stats of an item, but I can’t believe it added a new collection.”
I stopped talking at that point and clapped my hands loudly once.
“I will not be making any new collections for the time being. It would be nice if I made too much, but aren’t you guys like that? And this item… I don’t have LPs, but today I’m going to sell just 10 of them. You can see that the appraisal center is empty right now, right?”
“Ah.”
A few people who had a glimpse of how things were going quickly ran to the PC.
Then, all the people who had been absent-mindedly ran to the remaining seats.
Thanks to that, there were almost no people in front of me, but I continued to speak sincerely.
“If I go over there and post these, a total of 10 people will be given a chance to buy, on a first-come, first-served basis. Let’s not fight each other, let’s fight fair and square.”
All the remaining people also ran towards the PC.
There seemed to be some scuffle because the garden was already full, but that’s none of my business.
I took 10 basic one-handed swords (Normal+) and walked slowly toward the appraisal center.
I never thought the fact that I couldn’t do individual transactions would work so well. If it wasn’t for that system, I would have been murdered and taken away long ago.
“Come up! Get it right away!!”
As soon as the system was uploaded, it was sold out one after another.
The cash register where you can settle your sales is also nearby, so you can get settled immediately.
So, from 300LP, you get 285LP with the commission reduced.
I consumed 5LP to buy five additional swords earlier, and I reset the cooldown 9 times during the editing process, so I had 7LP left, but now it’s 292LP.
And if 100LP comes in tomorrow for relief, a total of 392LP.
That’s a very generous point for me.
“Hey! Did you get the points? Please make more.”
“Ha, just one more!”
“Can’t we just keep making it and uploading it? Aren’t you going to earn a lot of points too!”
People who couldn’t buy surrounded me.
Most of them are women who are more than average, so it made me feel better.
“South Asians are middle class! Today ends with this. Come back tomorrow.”
“No fuck, just make one more!”
“Brother!”
Screaming women.
It was so strange to see so many women begging me, but it was dangerous.
Because he might be so upset that he’ll go out and kill me for no reason. Even now, the atmosphere is already gloomy.
“Let’s make it when we say good things. Yes?”
“There is nothing difficult. It’s a stat adjustment, and they sell a lot at the shop below.”
“No, let’s make a completely different collection.”
There were many people who wanted to buy it.
I didn’t get most of them because I only sold 10 of them, and even if I was lucky enough to buy them, there would be several collections with basic one-handed swords (Normal+).
“I’ll pass.”
“No, where are you going?”
“Gee, I’ll pass.”
“Brother, do you think we’re kidding?”
… Let’s get out quickly It looks like it’s going to be fucked up.
Any more is really dangerous.
“Stop it.”
Then a voice saved me.
Because the people who were clamoring for that short word stopped. It was like watching a marionette play.
Then, a white arm that came out of the crowd grabbed me by the collar and pulled me outside.
“Wow.”
“I saw something interesting, talk to me.”
It was Gilma, Shin Seo-yul, the line that never existed.
