Chapter 28 – 28. Receipt of Reward With Two Dear Slaves
Eunji buried her head halfway in my arms and cried for a long time while Harin wiped her heart as if she had endured it for ten years.
Ganghwa-young … Frowns at her and wipes her tongue. She had the expression of forcing herself to eat something she couldn’t eat, but Harin said that Hwayoung pulled out poison from my body.
‘There must be no skill… How on earth did he realize that he had poison. And how did you pull it out?’
All I can guess is the Carnage Vamp class.
‘Are classes that change into other races bloom naturally, even if they are racial characteristics? Hmm. In any case, you unintentionally proved yourself to be quite useful. It’s too wasteful to throw it away.’
It’s a little bit resistant to my slave brand skill as well. Looking forward to the future.
As I was glaring at Ganghwa-yeong, Eun-ji, who made my arms covered with her tears, looked at me and resented me.
“Brother… Please. Don’t do anything alone. Not once or twice. What if you keep trying to die so suddenly? How do we live together? If my brother dies, who will I trust and live with?”
“Sorry. Sorry.”
Eunji expressing her dissatisfaction while crying was oddly cute.
It’s so cute and pretty that it’s worth watching her frown.
Besides, what she said was not terribly wrong, and she was certainly right, so she had no answer other than an apology.
Honestly, this happened because of my greed. My eyes went back to 500 magic attribute.
Of course, if the ugly slave said something like this, he would immediately feed 3,000 honey chestnuts.
“Okay. Sorry.”
He silently listened to Eunji’s worried complaints and stroked her hair.
“Master. Ha. No.”
Harin saved her words. She said that she was satisfied with just coming back alive, and held my hand and kneaded it for a long time.
As if she would never let go again, the strength in her hands that held me gradually grew stronger. I guess I’m sick…
“Hey, Harin. Now some It looks sick…”
“Be patient. Because my heart hurts more than this. And this has an acupressure effect.”
“Uh… Yes. Thanks.”
I have nothing to say.
In fact, the reason why I was so lethargic was that Indicron, who predicted in advance that I would eventually eat the twisted Naedan, plotted it, but in any case, it was all because I lost my nerve and ate the Naedan.
“Haha… Everyone, don’t worry too much…”
Ignoring my words, Eunji and Harin held on to me for a long time.
Of course, their childishness wasn’t too bad, so I laid down with them on both sides.
Feeling the warmth, I realized that I had come back alive from that insane abyss.
‘More than that, I care too much about what Indicron said..’
Indicron’s revelation that the good side had sent a champion added a dizzying sense of tension to my mind, which had been loosening up with a magic stat of 745.
‘The champion must be a player like me. I said that not only the class and level, but also how many people might come…’
If you look at it objectively, if you’re a champion of God, you won’t be a normal class like a warrior or an archer.
At least a rare class of Mage level or higher, or a hidden class like me will come. Hidden class players are coming to kill me.
That alone is irritating and irritating.
Why are you yelling at people who are quiet? Hate built up naturally towards those called good gods.
‘I don’t know how many opportunities the bastards who came to kill me must have taken…’
I picked up and ate the inner hem of the black sand and the twisted inner hem and raised my magic power to 745.
There was no law that I was the only one to grow by leaps and bounds, so the enemies might have gotten a chance and become strong enough to kill me.
‘Indycron told me to prepare for the enemies. That would mean that, in its current state, it could be annihilated by them. It’s hard to guarantee unconditional victory.’
If the enemies weren’t so dangerous, they wouldn’t have dragged me down into the abyss in such a crude way and warned me directly. Since the enemies are so dangerous, they must have called me while feigning death.
‘The items they find and sell by the peddler may be enormous, and the rewards received for achieving achievements that I do not know about may have great power. It’s frustrating because I don’t know anything.’
Literally how it will come. I couldn’t and couldn’t predict how he would try to kill me.
Just as Indicron told me to prepare, I have no choice but to increase my strength and create a variable enough to make them reverse tour in any situation.
It’s a little comforting that there are 9 achievement rewards left to receive. As they may come with variables I don’t know about, I also have to create as many variables as possible to catch them off guard.
‘Still, isn’t the fact that the good gods didn’t descend and try to kill me?
Among the stories that Indicron told me, there was a word called causality.
Perhaps that is a device and a rule of the game that prevents the gods from directly intervening.
A minimum safety device to prevent excessive intervention or rampage by the gods and prevent the player’s game board from being destroyed.
Through this, I am a good god and an evil god. And it was found that there was one more neutral being or group in between.
‘The game system window floating in front of my eyes. From this, you can know that there is a guy or guys like the game operator. And they’ll be neutral.’
I don’t know if they are game operators or game masters, but those who set up and coordinate this skill, achievement reward, status window, etc. Are not on the side of either good or evil gods. Perhaps the device called causality was created by these guys?
‘Those who play with the players and even the gods. These guys are the most dangerous guys.’
It’s creepy to know that there are guys who can force the rules between the evil and good gods. If you look at it that way, I’m just one of the chess pieces on the game board they’re playing on.
‘Whoa… That’s dizzying. Let’s clear our heads a little. I’m not in a position to care about those guys right now.’
My thoughts drifted a little to the side. Now, first of all, I have to finish judging those who will come after me and those who hate me for no reason.
‘Those who come to kill me are the champions of the good gods… Yes. I’m pretty sure you said ‘the good guys’. That means good gods get along well… I bet the damn evil gods aren’t the only individualists, are they?’
Indicron said that the champion of the ‘good gods’ was attacking me.
That means that not just one good god, but many united. This shows that the good gods are actively cooperating with each other.
‘On the other hand… Don’t the evil spirits care about each other that much? After all, there are people who don’t even care about servants.’
You can tell just by looking at Carshinax.
The damn demon didn’t seem to care much about me except when it came to human sacrifice.
‘No. Let’s not be too conclusive. When I asked if I could eat Naedan, Carshinax told me to do it myself, but also conveyed the will to try it. Maybe I knew from the start that Indycrons would invite me into the abyss. If you look at it that way, the evil spirits will not be solitary generals who insist on single actions unconditionally. And in the end, he led me to the part that benefited me, so I can’t be completely indifferent.’
It seems difficult to conclude that the evil gods are completely playing individually.
‘Anyway, it seems that the goddamn good gods are more united and good at multiplayer than the damn evil gods. Troublesome.’
Here’s one more thing I noticed.
‘And the good gods can observe me.’
Indicron felt the causal law shaken and noticed the tricks of the forerunners. But I didn’t know anything about the guys coming to kill me.
That meant that Indycrons only glimpsed the near future and couldn’t see into the details of their enemies.
‘On the other hand, the champions on the Sun God side are already moving to kill me. This means that the good god sensed and found out that I was a cultist in advance.’
This is a very dangerous thing. I don’t know the enemy, but the enemy knows me roughly and comes to kill me.
‘If the law of causality is working properly, I wouldn’t tolerate the absurdity of observing the opposing faction’s champion. If it was to be tolerated, Indicron should have been able to observe the enemy’s strength.’
Therefore, the seonshin side decided that they would not be able to see my every move.
Of course, this is just an assumption.
I think that perhaps the predecessors also found me after enduring considerable causal aftermath. That’s how the balance is right. If the game master is neutral, he’ll care about the balance, wouldn’t it?
And if only the good god was an unconditional advantage in the fight, there would be no way that Indycron would have called me and told me about the future. He didn’t give up on me because it was worth fighting for. Here, once again, we can be sure that the game masters are neutral beings.
‘First of all, all the good gods are on the same side, and I cheated a lot… Even I have the strength and determination to identify my existence in some way and send an assassin. Damn it Survival is getting more fucking right.’
The future is bleak in many ways.
It’s hard to deal with the zombie bastards who are getting stronger every day, but even the damn converts are targeting me.
Maybe this is what the whole world is doing to me.
I think so.
‘Well, it might have already been planned from the moment I took the side of the evil god.’
It’s a dark, bleak future where you can’t even see an inch ahead…
Well, his name is a cultist who worships evil spirits, but that should be enough.
‘Of course, I didn’t come to worship evil spirits voluntarily. In any case, I gained a lot thanks to that, so I have to deal with that much headwind.’
It’s just that the class he was given was a cultist. I didn’t step out and try to worship evil spirits.
Clearly, I can say that I am also a victim.
Of course, all the skills he acquired as a cultist were fraudulent to just talk about being a victim.
Yeah, this sounds oddly good to say it’s just my bad luck…?
Also good luck 666.
Fucking good come and go
“Have you both calmed down a bit?”
“Yes, brother. It’s fine now.”
“Me too.”
Eunji and Harin are both playing with my chest now. I didn’t know when it would be, but I didn’t know when it would be, but if I told them that converts who wanted to kill me would come soon, I thought the atmosphere would become serious again, so I reserved my words.
It would be okay if you take all the remaining achievement rewards and talk to me a little later. That much time would have been left.
I said that Indy Cron was coming soon, I didn’t say it was coming right away.
It is said that there is still enough time left to prepare. At least I don’t think he’ll come and mess around with me today.
It’s not careless. Rather than being careless, he just made a reasonable inference by analyzing Indicron’s words.
“Then, shall we choose an achievement reward together? Choose a reward and shoot your skills.”
“Great!”
“Yes. Master.”
When she turned her head, Hwa-young must have been tired and was asleep again.
Since he was a bit spoiled, she left him asleep.
“Well then…”
A total of nine achievements remain.
In order, ‘Gamble with Life’, ‘Mana User’, ‘Encounter with the Unknown’, ‘The Unforgiven’, ‘Servant of Carshinax’, ‘Vengeance Faith’, ‘Servant of Indicron’, ‘Overwhelming Magical Power’ ‘, ‘life security’.
“First of all, I’ll check the ‘Gamble with my life’ rewards.”
“Yes!” “Yes.”
[Choose a reward.]
[One. Gambler’s Dice]
[2. Gambler’s Joker Card]
[3. Gambler’s Golden Coin]
It’s not easy to get a sense of what these things are doing just by looking at the name.
[Gambler’s Dice: You can exchange items for sale from Merchant NPCs only once, equal to the number rolled on the dice. If there are no or few items to replace, replace and refill by the number shown.]
‘This must have been an item that could be used against the peddler. Seeing that it’s a merchant NPC, it seems like there will be other merchants besides the peddlers in future updates.’
According to the description of the reward, if the number 6 came out, it meant that you could change all the items on the stall. If something comes out that you don’t like, you can replace it.
‘Even if you buy 5 items on the stall and roll a 6 on the dice, the remaining item will be replaced and 5 more items will be refilled as a reward.’
If the items on the stall are sold out, the peddlers will leave without regret, so you must leave one item on the stall unconditionally.
If you roll the dice in that state and it rises higher than 1, the one item remaining on the stall is replaced and a new item is refilled for the remaining number of times, so this was a very good reward.
Of course, I don’t like that it’s disposable.
[Gambler’s Joker Card: You can get a ‘Gambler’ class card by handing over the Joker Card to the Merchant NPC. If an existing player uses a gambler card, the level is reset and the job is replaced with gambler.]
‘Oh my god.’
I don’t know what the gambler class is, but seeing as it’s a class that can be acquired in this way, it doesn’t seem like a normal kind of job.
‘If I get this and somehow find the peddler, I might be able to turn one of Koo Ji-hwan and Kim Do-kyung into a gambler.’
If you replace an existing awakener with a gambler, the level is reset, so it’s a waste. If you learn it, you will have to choose one of the two non-awakened ones.
[Gambler’s Golden Coin: You can purchase one of the items sold by the merchant NPC by paying the golden coin.]
‘Hmm… This is a reward like an American Express black card.’
It is a reward that allows you to buy it unconditionally when an item with astronomical value comes out one day.
‘You don’t know how many bad things will come out. This is a mouth-watering reward.’
Once you have it, you can buy it by giving it when an item that is difficult to purchase with the coin you have comes out.
‘Which of the three should I choose?’
While I was reading the description of the reward, I explained the reward to Eunji and Harin, who were playing around by pinching my nipples, and asked for their opinions on what to choose.
“Which of the three should I choose?”
“Hmm. I am the Joker card.”
“Okay? Why?”
“Because if you use a dice or a coin once, that’s it, but a class is permanent if you don’t die.”
“Certainly Eunji is right. What about Harin?”
“Um… I’m a coin.”
“Tell me why.”
“Well… For some reason, I think if I get the golden coins now, I’ll need something ‘must’ later. There’s no particular reason… It’s just my gut feeling.”
It’s Harin’s intuition. The words of Harin, who has a strange sense of humor, have credibility.
“Hmm…”
“Brother. Seeing Harin talk like that, I think she’d better choose a golden coin.”
“Okay?”
“Yes. Harin, you feel good about something.”
When I was choosing a skill and got sucked into the abyss and couldn’t breathe, I noticed right away. It seems that there is a lot of feeling alone. Is it a savage’s intuition? Maybe this is the racial trait of the barbarian, like the racial trait of Ganghwa-young’s vampire class.
“It’s a golden coin. Okay. Let’s do this.”
Soon, a golden coin engraved on the smiling Shiba Inu’s face fell in front of her eyes.
What? Is this a hint that Dogecoin is a rice cake?
“Wow. The puppy looks cute.”
“I want to see you too.”
“Yes, Harin-ah, here.”
“Oh… So cute.”
Both of them couldn’t take their eyes off it, probably because it was a gold coin with a cute puppy engraved on it. I like it so much, but I only have one coin, so it’s strange to give it to someone.
As both of you love each other, if you take care of only one, you will notice the other.
“Once with this, one choice is complete. Next is the mana user achievement reward…”
[Reading class…]
[Identified as cultist.]
[Wizard-type rewards are specified.]
[Choose a reward.]
[One. Sorcerer’s Oak Wand]
[2. Witch’s Raven Feather Conical Hat]
[3. Shaman’s Floating Stone Necklace]
Cultist is also treated as a mage-type skill. Items dedicated to professions that mainly use magic appeared.
If that’s the case, it means that non-magic warrior classes can choose other rewards if their mana exceeds 100.
‘It’s 100 mana… If everyone doesn’t die and grows well, it’s a figure we’ll reach someday.’
Every time you go up a level, your stats randomly rise between 1 and 5, so if you level up well, your magic stat will eventually break through 100. If only I could survive and not die by then.
[Sorcerer’s Oak Wand: Magic used with an oak wand is twice as powerful.]
This was an item that turned normal fireballs into enhanced fireballs.
‘Can I write? No Because I don’t have any magic skills to use with a staff in the first place. Most of the skills are hand gestures. Doesn’t fit me It’s perfect for Sumin Hwang.’
[Witch’s Raven Feather Conical Hat: Shortens or erases the chanting of skills that require chanting.]
It was said that skipping the chant or chanting no chant became possible.
‘I can use this too.’
If you wear this cone hat, you can spew tentacles without even having to shout Rruye.
‘Hmm… But wearing a witch’s conical hat isn’t the case.’
My chanting isn’t that long, so I’ll just pass.
[Shaman’s floating stone necklace: You can float in the air by consuming magic power.]
It was literally a call to rise into the sky and launch an aerial bombardment.
This looks like something that should be given to Hwang Soo-min, a mage.
Imagine Hwang Soo-min floating in the air with this and shooting magic missiles in all directions.
‘Hmm. First of all, all three of them are better to give to Hwang Soo-min, a mage, than to use them myself. Later, when Hwang Soo-min exceeds 100 magic stats, it would be perfect to pick another reward and use it as a set.’
Then, out of these three, what does Hwang Soo-min need right now? I asked both.
“Um… Sumin lacks magic.”
“Right.”
“Also. What should I do with magic?”
In that sense, the floating stone necklace is a pity, but it is eliminated.
You can’t tell a kid who doesn’t even have the magic to fire a fireball right away and have him float in the air while consuming mana.
“Then there are only two left…”
“Brother. I recommend a cane. Because you can’t shoot a few shots anyway, so it’s better to increase the power.”
“I agree too.”
“Then with an oak wand.”
Soon, the typical round-tipped wooden staff carried by wizards in games fell on top of me.
“Keuuk..!”
“Oh, brother!”
“Above, the location is a must..”
I grabbed my lower leg, which had been hit by the head of the falling staff. It hurts quite a bit.
“Whoa… I’ll have to give this to Hwang Soo-min later.”
“Yes… My brother.. It keeps hurting somewhere…”
“Master. Be careful.”
“Yeah… Thanks for worrying…”
He patted his back and set the staff aside.
“All, next…!”
The following is the reward for the achievement of ‘Encounter with the unknown’ achieved by first encountering an evil spirit.
[Choose a reward.]
[One. Statue of Roy]
[2. Gillian’s Lantern]
[3. Stephen’s Pillar]
It must be my mistake to see some familiar names.
[Roy’s Statue: A statue created by Roy, the Unknown Worshiper. If destroyed, you may encounter one of the unspecified demons.]
‘This… For now… For now, it’s on hold.’
I already realized this clearly while meeting Carshinax and Indicron.
Evil spirits are a bit dangerous to face.
At least, Carshinax was indifferent to me, so it wasn’t a problem, and Indikeron was relatively friendly to make me his champion, so it’s a shame. There is no law that even other evil spirits should react in that way. Of course, since I have a lot of love, most people will like me, but if I become obsessed with it because I like it too much, it will be quite tiring. An evil spirit’s inhuman obsession. Afraid.
‘All, next…’
[Zillian’s Lantern: This is a lantern made by Jillian, an unknown seeker. You may not lose your presence in the unique realm of the evil spirit.]
‘Ohhh…’
In the abyss I felt the sense of losing my existence. This must be something that can prevent such an abnormal situation from happening.
‘It’s fine for now. Next.’
[Steven’s Pillar: A rod discovered by Steven, an unknown explorer. You can earn the favor of the evil spirit by offering it to the evil spirit.]
“This is it.”
The crush of evil spirits.
It’s scary to meet a new evil god right away, and you just have to make sure that you don’t have to go to the area unique to the evil god.
Obtain the pillar to earn the favor of Carshinax, who is indifferent to me. Could you be a little kinder then?
It seems that Indicron has a crush on me to some extent!
“Pillar selection!”
