Chapter 102 – #16. King Woohak (2)
“They said expensive gifts were not allowed, so they must have tried to compete with sheep.”
“But these are too expensive to say that they compete with quantity, right?”
It wasn’t a luxury item, probably conscious of the saying that expensive clothes were not allowed, but there were clothes that cost well over 300,000 won and electronic gadgets worth 1 million won.
“Omg! This new game machine!! I really wanted it!”
Seeing as a member of the age group where there are a lot of things I want to buy, my eyes started to roll around.
Game consoles, mobile phones, watches, perfumes, clothing, cosmetics, wallets, bags, etc.
It wasn’t even a single gift.
As if he wanted to know his taste, he chose several colors and designs and sent them.
That’s why it didn’t look like I was sending this to myself.
“Uh? Here’s a letter!”
“Where are you? Bro bro! Read it.”
“Oh oh-! Will we finally get to know the owner of the car?”
And one letter found in a pile of presents.
At the members’ urging, I took out the letter and read it.
[Please feel free to write. I’m enclosing several because I don’t know what you’ll like. Anything left over can be shared with others. However, since it means pure support with no other meaning, I hope you don’t decline my sincerity too much. We support your activities. -Your fan k-]
“Wow~ It’s a big crowd.”
“I guess he was the one who gave me the car. Right, brother?”
“Perhaps it is?”
If I were to list all the gifts I brought from the company today, the price would easily exceed several thousand.
“Hyung, will you accept it?”
“I know. I don’t know what to do with this.”
They say they don’t accept things that are too expensive, so I didn’t know they would send more items that barely meet the standard.
If you don’t receive this, it will be a problem to receive gifts from other fans.
Because of me, the other members are also suffering the loss of refusing expensive gifts.
I couldn’t act rashly because refusal of a gift was not a problem for me alone.
Moreover, looking at the members’ expressions, I felt that I shouldn’t refuse even this gift.
“What am I supposed to do with this gift? I already brought it here, and I even ripped it all apart.”
“Ohhh!!”
“I will write this and this and this and this and this and this. Take the rest if you want. As you can see, I said in the letter that I could share it, so it doesn’t matter. Ah! And bragging on social media is not allowed. Know?”
“Know!”
“Haesol hyung is also secretly the manager noona. A lot of nagging.”
“What? Won’t you give it, Nam Nam-gyu?”
“Oh! Shamefully!! Shall I kneel there, brother?”
Nam-gyu, who quickly changed his attitude, slapped him on the shoulder and entered the room.
I opened the letter again and checked it.
‘Hmm, did you think I would naively believe you if I said this?’
A sign of pure unintentional support?
Let’s think about it.
A man tells a woman to accept the gift, saying that it is given with a pure heart.
It is also a gift that is quite expensive.
‘It’s bullshit.’
Even if you try to give a wild flower, it cannot be seen that there is no intention.
How much money did you spend?
No matter how much money is so much that it is just a numbers game, the situation does not change.
Clearly there is something you want from me. However, it seemed that he had no intention of breaking it down yet.
Even knowing all of that, I accepted the second gift because I thought there was a risk in refusing it.
If you buy and give away such an expensive car, you must be a person with financial power.
‘This is a time when you shouldn’t look recklessly and go around. It’s better to let them be manipulated for now.’
I’m also a human being, so it’s not that I don’t like the latest electronic gadgets or quality clothes, watches, bags, and wallets that I get for free.
In addition, there was nothing that I couldn’t buy these things with my current wallet.
I had set the standard that it was okay to receive it as a gift if it was something I could afford, so I did it.
However, since it was unknown how the fan’s interest would change, it seemed necessary to keep an eye on it.

“… Is it better to upload?”
Jun-yi said that most people improve their skills by working hard, but as someone who has a cheat-key by his side, he had no reason not to use it.
However, it was known that he had no talent for acting until now, but I was worried that people around him would think it strange if his skills suddenly increased.
In particular, it was necessary to consider the position of Juni, who is much more serious about acting than I am.
He devoted his time to teaching me, who lacked in skills, but what if my acting skills surpassed his own?
‘Even if I think about it, I don’t think I’ll be lucky.’
Relationships between members need to be careful.
Since everyone is still young, there are sides to them that make them angry.
Children are easily shaken and easily injured.
‘It’s a dilemma. Dilemma.’
Eventually, after thinking about it for a while, I made up my mind and turned on the status window.
The coins currently in my pocket were [Coins held: 430 (8,920)].
Since I have 4,000 coins to pay back to Pony, my actual coins over there are 430 (4,920).
I’m worried whether I should consider this fortunate or not, but I was able to pay back the coin I borrowed from Pony with the gift certificate coin.
Only me was restricted from using it, but for Pony, coins earned through missions and coins earned through sex were all the same coins.
‘What do I do if I work hard on a mission, what I earn is spent.’
I feel ashamed of myself in the past when I said at first that I would bravely collect 110,000 coins.
As I used metallurgy metallurgy, the list of missions that could be done was decreasing, rather than collecting coins.
For example, in the case of exercise missions, most of the easy levels were broken.
If it wasn’t for the constant renewal of the mission, it would have been a real big deal.
‘Should I spin only 30 times with 430 coins?’
If it’s about 30 times, I’ll be able to raise my low acting ability to some extent.
However, it won’t have a dramatic effect enough to make you think it’s great.
I called Pony after a long time.
“Pony!!!! Pony!!!!”
[(; ･`Д･´) Ah! Why do you keep calling me?!]
“Why do you keep calling me? Did I call you after a long time?”
[What else are you going to do?]
“If anyone sees it, they say it as if I did something bad to you.”
[You can do that.]
“Even if you came to pay off your debt?”
[You should have said that before! Give it right now.]
“I like it very much because they say that they take the interest every month and pay off the debt.”
[You seem to have a bit of a taste for living with mission coins these days, but 4,000 coins is by no means small, right?]
“If 4,000 coins is not small, why are the prices of items in the store such that?”
The prices of products are very expensive, with 1,000 coins being the smallest unit.
Of course, I know they are worth the price, but if even Pony, not me, trembles at 1,000 coins, I wonder who the hell is buying those things.
[… What a great existence you and I are. You are now receiving the blessings of blessing. It makes no sense to be able to get that many coins with just those missions.]
“You mean to impregnate women again?”
[Just know that it gives you these benefits. If you don’t do your job right, it might pay off someday. So, come to your senses and go meet a lot of girls. If you get pregnant again next time, you will get better benefits.]
… It’s a pretty scary threat.
In addition, it seemed that he was eager to tell me that he was also offering carrots.
This cheat key ability I have also meant that I could always take it back if I didn’t like that guy’s bosses.
“I’m tired of that noise, so stop it, and this is the coin ability gacha. Can you tie it up and turn it around?”
[What is that again?]
“I still have to use 30 coins to increase my stats 30 times, but it’s too inconvenient.”
These days, games often come out so that you can draw 10 times at once.
However, this is one coin per coin to raise the ability unconditionally.
It doesn’t take a long time to run once, but I wanted to reduce even that if possible.
What if you want to raise a certain ability 100 times?
[(⋆ˋ⑉̈ˊ)൭൭⁼³₌₃ Did you just call me to do that?]
“Is this really important to me? And I’m paying back what I borrowed. Do you not want to take the borrowed coin?”
[Give it up quickly! My coin!]
Even if I screamed loudly, he only came out with a speech bubble, so I’m not scared at all.
However, the boss who handles this guy definitely needs to be careful.
These are the guys who made a contract to snatch me from Earth and brought me here.
Judging from the fact that he manages the destruction of the world, he must be at least a far superior being than humans.
‘Pony is a bit easy-going, so she can be naughty, but if a really strong one comes, she won’t be able to make a sound.’
Even Pony showed fear of her boss from time to time.
So far, they are taking a friendly attitude, but it was unknown when that would change.
[Don’t call me for such useless suggestions, contact the customer center!]
“Customer service center? Is there anything like that?”
[Of course! There’s no way there isn’t! Then put it up as a suggestion. Then I’ll fix it in a few days.]
“I don’t know how the continuity status window works.”
I thought I knew enough to know after looking through the status window, but it seems there are still many things I don’t know.
“Are you guys handling this status window?”
[No, there is a separate organization that manufactures and manages the status window… Mistress, why are you curious about that?!]
“I was just asking. I was just curious without thinking.”
Pony glared at me for a moment as if she was suspicious, but she let go of her pretense.
With no proof, there’s nothing he can do.
[Don’t get hit and do well. Understand?]
“Don’t bother, go now.”
Now that my business was over, there was no reason to have a big fight with that disgusting mosquito guy.
Pony grumbled for a while and then disappeared with a bang.
If I hadn’t paid back the 4,000 coins, he would have stayed and nagged me for a while.
I spent some time doing other things after the pony was completely gone.
And after about an hour passed, the status window turned on again.
There are reasons to be so careful.
‘I would have thought that managing the status window would have been an organization that wasn’t involved with Pony.’
The moment I read those words in the speech bubble, a thought came to my mind.
An unreasonable error that I couldn’t catch because I had a heartache all along, but there was no evidence.
It was probably an order given by Pony’s boss that was messing around with my status bar.
‘Isn’t it human nature to expose Suzaku?’
I don’t have the ability, so I think I’ll lose more than I gain even if I expose this.
Just because Pony is easy doesn’t mean that the guy above him is also easy.
‘You noticed at once that Pony was trying to cheat on fees. If I just look at him and stretch out, I’ll go to the goal.’
It’s not that Pony is awkward, it’s that the guy on top of him is awkward, so it’s a doubt he couldn’t say.
However, he has no intention of continuing to suffer because he cannot speak.
So, I was looking for an opportunity, but I felt like I saw an opportunity in today’s conversation with Pony.
‘It has nothing to do with me whether or not the guys I’ve never met face to face get punished for their manipulative actions. What I want is to be able to raise my stats not with manipulated probabilities, but with probabilities that work properly.’
Even if it did, it was a big achievement for me.
But so far there has been no way to know that.
But not anymore.
I couldn’t stay still until I found out about the existence of the ‘Customer Center’.
I immediately turned on the customer center window and started writing down the words.
The status window showed kindness by providing a keyboard made of holograms.
Not only that, but also voice recognition.
[I would like to request one suggestion and bug check.]
First of all, I wrote a suggestion that it would be convenient if I could use coins to raise my stats at once, and then I wrote a report that there seems to be a bug in the probability of my ability stats currently applied to me.
I was already looking forward to seeing how the ‘status window’ would react.
