Chapter 8 – 8.Valendia (8)
“Yes?”
Sasha looked at me, her mouth slightly open and her eyes blinking.
A quite dazed expression.
If you saw it on Rupan, it was an expression worth taking a screenshot of and posting it to the community.
The notification clearly pierced Sasha’s suspicions.
In that case, we will push forward like this for now.
“I guess you didn’t hear me right. Trust me. That’s all I have to say.”
“Is that all you said?”
“Yes. Today is the first time you and I have met. So all I can do is tell you to trust me. I will show you the rest through my actions.”
Sasha was silent for a moment.
“Phew… Puhahahaha! Oppa, this is really fun~!”
He grabbed her belly button and made her laugh.
“Aha, haha, well, that’s right! Actually, it was too much to ask an oppa I met for the first time to prove my trust. Still, hehe, trust me! It’s like an oppa who hates lies.”
“Don’t worry. I keep my promises. It may be hard to believe, but.”
“No. I will trust you. Don’t trust me. In the first place, a contract must be entered into on the basis of trust. Well, if you betray after that, you will pay the same price as the betrayal… “
Sasha winked at me.
“For some reason, I feel like I can trust you.”
“What is the basis?”
“It’s a persimmon. It’s a persimmon I’ve grown while working as a trader. It’s pretty accurate, brother~.”
I felt a little sorry for speaking so confidently.
Because I penetrated the doubt that occupied that sense.
‘Well, I guess only the suspicions towards me penetrated.’
It will definitely happen.
Because I had that feeling for some reason when I heard the notification sound that it had penetrated.
“Yes, your guess is correct. I will not betray this contract.”
I gently pushed the apple pie to the center of the table.
“Huh?”
“Now that the contract has been concluded, I want to move on to talking about the equipment I want to support.”
“Yes.”
“It would be better to talk at the store.”
“Is that so? There are some items in the store.”
“If you eat them together, you can eat the apple pie you ordered faster.”
“Yes.”
I further said to Sasha, who was looking at me with her bewildered eyes.
“It’s delicious, so try it too.”
“Phew! Yes, oppa. I’ll eat well too~.”
After she finished eating the apple pie and tea, she left the cafe with Sasha.
“Please follow me, brother~.”
She followed Shasha to the eastern sector of Valendia.
As she looked around the streets and watched Sasha’s tail her moving gently from time to time, she arrived at Sasha’s store.
Many people were coming and going in front of the Cats Company, which has a cat face as its trademark.
Just by looking at the way the clerks at Cats Store responded to customers, you could tell that they were prospering in Valendia.
“What do you think? Valendia’s best store! It’s Cats Store.”
“Indeed, it’s successful. So where is the equipment to provide support?”
“You really have a short temper. But I like that from a merchant’s point of view! It’s best to make a deal quickly.”
I followed Sasha into the store.
“Ah, boss. Welcome!”
“Yes, yes, I’m done, so just do what you’re doing.”
“Yes!”
I passed the clerk who was working and arrived at what appeared to be the warehouse of the company.
There were several boxes piled up here and there and various equipment displayed on the walls.
‘That’s the Blue Scream Sword. It has a golem shield and a flame hammer.’
And all the equipment and weapons were identical to the images seen in Rupan.
There is no weapon gacha in Rupan.
Instead, it is a system that allows you to make weapons and equipment by defeating enemies or collecting monster drops and collected materials and asking a blacksmith to do so.
And the fortunate thing is that Lupan’s weapon and equipment performance upgrade was a level up, not a reinforcement system.
Instead, there is an alchemy breakthrough system that allows you to visit an alchemy shop and synthesize the same weapons and equipment to increase performance up to 5 times.
However, there is a limit to the amount of monsters and materials collected per day, so it is bound to take time.
In the end, hard work was necessary to obtain full stack weapons and equipment.
‘But what about here?’
There were ability values in the character status window, but no level values.
If so, wouldn’t the weapons and equipment be the same?
It is a world that cannot be completely said to be like a game.
If you don’t know, it is highly likely that it was at max level from the moment it was created.
‘It’s difficult to judge this because we don’t know the exact numbers.’
If you consciously look at the newly acquired high-level window, not the regular window, as if you were looking closely.
[High-grade spear: A masterpiece created by a skilled blacksmith using good quality materials.]
The text only appeared like this, and no attack power values were displayed.
‘Well, I only remember the game attack power level.’
In the first place, it was even more difficult to judge because thanks to the penetration skill, a regular spear could produce enough power to pierce a bandit’s body.
“Oppa~.”
While I was lost in thought after looking at the equipment, Sasha called me.
He suddenly called with a voice that made my ears happy, and for a moment, my unusual concept of a man almost disappeared.
A situation where a favorite character appears in front of a user who has been playing Rupan for 10 years and calls me oppa has become a reality.
‘I need to be more determined.’
“What is it?”
“I’m really worried. Can’t decide what to choose? If it’s okay, can I recommend something?”
“No, it’s okay. I choose.”
“Hmm, in times like this, it’s better to get advice from a merchant who has seen a lot of products.”
“I choose first, and if I decide not, I get advice.”
“Well, if that’s your case. I understand. Then think about it further.”
“There is no need to worry. I have already decided.”
After looking around for a while, the setting that suits me has already been decided.
“Let’s do this and this and…” ” “This.”
What I chose was a wind leather armor set with green leather and light armor on the chest, shoulders, and knees, a deadly ring, and a new moon spear.
It cannot be said to be final-level equipment.
But it wasn’t bad equipment.
In the first place, it is possible to pay for Rupan, but since it is an action game that requires control, the story and event bosses can be easily overcome with just the basic regular characters and the equipment and accessories obtained through a little hard work .
However, since the company does not make money, weapons and accessories can be obtained through hard work within the game, but the difference in performance obtained by breaking the limit when selecting multiple characters is quite large.
‘I also enjoyed uploading a comparison video between the business card and full-dol character damage.’
[This gacha character business card and full stone damage comparison video]

-Have you seen this? This is the power of Puldol. Business card holders, bow your heads.
ㄴIt’s enough to use as a business card.
Author: So, can you do this much damage? Boss 5 second cut possible?
Wow, is Damn Ji real, what’s the difference? Isn’t it too tempting to charge?
ㄴWriter: If you ask me, I’ll pick you more haha
Memories of a pleasant past.
At least that’s what makes spending money worthwhile.
“Oh~ Oppa, you also have a great eye for seeing.”
Sasha placed her chin between her thumb and index finger while looking at the equipment you selected.
“Well, my brother is a spearman, so it would be better to focus on speed.”
The equipment I chose is a setting that focuses on increasing critical damage in Rupan.
If there is a penetration skill, defense is ignored.
Moreover, considering reality correction, if the attack works, all attacks will be critical hits.
However, since there are no critical hits in the abilities, I don’t know how much the game setting will change and be reflected in this world, but at least it won’t be a bad choice.
In addition to attack power, grab the new moon spear, which has increased critical damage as a secondary option, and focus your mind.
[New Moon Spear: A masterpiece created by craftsman Kantsui with a crescent moon pattern engraved in the center of the window. Power increases by 60% when piercing the enemy’s gap.]
‘Oh.’
Clearly, the increase in critical damage of the new moon spear’s Buop was 60%.
Unlike penetration or master speary, the effects of this were displayed in a similar way to the game.
When I checked the Critical Strike Ring and Wind Leather Armor, it was written that the critical damage increases by 15% and 30% respectively when targeting the enemy’s weak spot and when attacking the enemy’s weak point.
However, the wind leather armor had an emblem that appeared to be an additional feature different from the game.
[The energy of the wind makes the user’s body agile.]
Looking at the sentence, it seems that there is a correction effect on agility.
It was clear that Sasha had just said that he was focused on speed.
It is difficult to properly understand this because it is a vague explanation rather than a percentage like the increase in power.
‘Even if a weapon is equipped, the equipment ability value is not displayed as +? Next to the ability value.’
To confirm, you have to try it on in person and move around to judge it.
“Can I try it on right away?”
“Yes, as much as you want.”
The Wind Leather Armor set, like the leather set I’m wearing now, includes gloves that cover up to the middle of the fingers, so I took off the gloves first.
“Huh… ? Huh?”
When I finished taking off her gloves, Sasha, who was looking at me with a smile, tilted her head.
“Why are you doing that?”
“Oppa, did you take out the subspace ring?”
“Subspace ring?”
“Ah, you’re pretending not to know. It’s a very expensive ring that allows you to store items within a certain space. No matter how annoying the ring may be in battle, it’s better to keep it on. If you lose it, you’ll be in big trouble.”〈 Br〉
Could it be that the inventory function is not a standard feature in this world?
However, when I took out the bandit head in front of Deishi, I was surprised to see the bandit head. As for the subspace ring…
‘No, at that time I had already installed new equipment. Until then, the bandits I had caught were only henchmen, so the only things I farmed were daggers that I could sell at a blacksmith shop.’
In the case of daggers, it was troublesome to take them out one by one, so I roughly tore up the bandit’s clothes, made a bundle, put it in my inventory, and when I got near the blacksmith shop, I took it out and handed it to him.
Also, since I needed to set up new equipment and farm the bandits’ weapons, not just daggers, but long swords and more advanced bows, I couldn’t pack them all in my temporary bandit clothes bundle, so I took the items out of my inventory right at the blacksmith shop.
At that time, the blacksmith had no particular reaction… No, there was a time when I said something that made sense.
-Huh, the bandits had more than enough goods.
‘I thought you were saying that when you first brought the Bandit Elite item and saw the Bandit Elite equipment…’
What if I said that thinking I had farmed a subspace ring from a bandit?
I could understand Sasha’s reaction right now.
I looked at Sasha, who was still smiling brightly at me.
What should I say to Sasha?
