Chapter 88 – Short Break (2)
For a while, the rain of money showed no signs of stopping.
Will the reward after catching the demon coming out of the dimensional gap come all at once?
Actually, if you think about it, you didn’t get any money as a reward after killing Demon.
I was so caught up in catching the crowd of demons that I didn’t even think about it.
I can’t even guess how many demons I’ve captured.
How much money did you make through this job?
Based on the last time I caught Vihamos, I remember it was down about 20 silver.
“It’s incredible. I can’t believe I’ve ever seen something like this in my life.”
“Wow! That’s a lot of money!”
Ellie was commenting on the rain of money falling before her eyes, and Yuria was jumping in place.
“That’s right. I thought scenes like this only existed in my imagination.”
It’s hard to believe that all this money is ours.
The only regret is that we now have enough money.
Still, more is better, so the more money you have, the better.
“You seem to be rich after coming here. Didn’t you guys worry about money when you were in the original world?”
I asked out of curiosity.
I heard that Jae used all the items he made, so I don’t think he has to worry about money in his life.
Additionally, if you feel like you are running low on gold, you can replenish your warehouse by purchasing gold with cash through the website.
At that time, I was a little anxious when the gold in the warehouse fell below a certain level.
In Elion, there was a system where each player could take the dropped items through an auction after defeating the raid boss, but it was not that unfair if you couldn’t take them due to lack of money.
In particular, I almost cried when I couldn’t get that item to complete the graduation setup for one character.
“Ever since I received Jinu’s power, I have never worried about money. When preparing for battle, the most important equipment that Jinu gives me is sufficient, and even if it wasn’t, I remember that there was always gold in the warehouse.”
Renia answered my question.
Looking at this, it seems like the money I spend in the game is well permeating into the other world.
But he also says he doesn’t know much about the game system.
This difference is subtle.
Also, Gaia didn’t seem to know anything about the Elion game, and it seems like only I know about it.
I’m wondering if I should talk about the game later.
Then, the moment the topic of God comes up, what should I say?
If I were to explain what it means, I think it would be impossible not to get angry no matter how much someone likes me.
My vision becomes dark as I imagine the terrible idea of running away in anger.
No matter what happens! I plan to keep it a secret until I die.
“It was really amazing. Every time someone joined the guild, the warehouse was filled with gold and equipment was falling out. That was all done through his power, master.”
“If it’s power, it’s power. It’s the power that I worked hard to use for you…”
This is the power that has sucked my salary little by little.
“Jinuni… I’m touched!”
Lenia said to me with tears in her eyes.
Yes, I don’t know how much it went to you, especially Renia.
Because the equipment that was used for you was a waste of money. I changed my monthly salary so that I could become as strong as possible, regardless of whether it was ability granting or reinforcement, or any means of becoming stronger that depended on probability.
She stroked Lenia’s head, recalling her bitter memories.
“Master, it looks like the rain will soon stop.”
She continued to listen to Lien, who was looking at the rain of money, and when she raised her head, she saw that the amount of rain of money had definitely decreased.
“Then I’m worried about how to save up that much money.”
Picking up the money one by one is nonsense, and the best way would be to have a way to throw it away in the middle of nowhere.
In that case, there are two methods to use.
“Renia, Noah. Can you help us save money?”
“Yes! Jinu, anything is okay as long as it helps!”
“I never thought there would come a day when my skills would be used to save money.”
First, you can either summon a large number of them using Rhenia’s spirit summoning skills and then collect them, or use 〈Blood Storm〉, one of Noah’s skills, which creates a gust of blood and gathers the monsters in the center.
So Noah used 〈 Blood Storm 〉 and Lenia created her ice wall to prevent it from flying somewhere else.
Hehe!
A gust of blood…
It’s something you see a lot in games, but seeing it in real life was amazing.
As Noah adjusted his strength and created a gust of blood, the coins that had fallen on the ground slowly began to be dragged.
As the gust of blood moved across the floor as if cleaning, coins gradually gathered in the center of the gust.
Follow me! Follow me!
At the center of the bloody gust, the sound of coins hitting each other was extremely loud.
When everyone thought everything was gathered together, Renia created an ice wall around the blast of blood, and just when she thought the ice wall was completely created, Noah released 〈 Blood Storm 〉.
The moment 〈 Blood Storm 〉 was released, the sound of coins hitting the ice wall was heard.
Everyone dispersed and looked around to see if there were any coins that had not been collected, and then gathered around the ice wall created in the center.
Lenia gestured and her ice wall cracked, sweeping the coins gathered at her center into her pocket.
Wow, it always feels good to hear the sound of a money bag jingling.
We sat down and calculated how much we had earned.
Oh… I counted the money I earned and it was a whopping 321 silver!
I worked hard like a dog today, but this is all I got?
Up until now, I was very grateful for this money, but compared to what I have now, it is very little money…
Thinking about this makes me angry again.
Thanks to the incompetent Gaia, I worked like a dog and got little return.
“It’s so… So little money.”
“So… How can you not make money even if you catch this damn demon?”
I should feel better just looking at the heavy money bag, but the reason I feel sad is…
“Something related to God here doesn’t help anything.”
Lien is right. Even if you catch Demon coming here, it’s actually not cost-effective.
Does it make sense that I killed a monster that was much more powerful than the monster here, but the money I got back was similar or even less?
Even if you meet the damn Boyd, you don’t even get any money back.
This is something without a clue.
I really want to solve this problem quickly and live together in one house with my characters.
Very earnest.
“For now, let’s go back to the dorm. It looks like the matter here has been resolved. I’m sure Cherry is waiting for us too.”
We took the Minercia and returned to Perne.
When we all entered the dormitory, exhausted, Cherry was waiting quietly in the room.
“Ah, boss! You’re here.”
When we returned to the room, Cherry got up and Dodo came running too.
“Oh, Cherry. Everything happened, right?”
“Yes! I was just waiting in the room. Are you guys okay? Now, it looks like you’ve been involved in some kind of battle…”
When Cherry saw us, she looked at us slightly and asked.
“It’s okay. It was a bit of a tough battle, but we resolved it without any problems. Let’s all take a shower and rest.”
Renia summoned her water spirit and we were instantly cleansed.
“As expected… There’s something out of the ordinary about you guys. This is my first time seeing you showered with some kind of spirit.”
Cherry is looking at us curiously.
“Let’s sleep for a day and talk again tomorrow morning.”
We all climbed into bed except Cherry.
Normally, there might have been a fight over who would sleep next to me, but he must have been very tired, so he didn’t even mention that and just gave me a look asking me to choose someone to sleep next to.
I held Ellie and Lien, who were in danger today.
I really thought they were going to die.
I really felt like I went into a dream as soon as I lay down.
【Jinuni? Can you hear me?】
While I was sleeping again, I heard a familiar voice.
When I opened my eyes, I found myself in a different place than the room I was sleeping in.
Now that it’s my third time, I’m starting to get used to it.
I opened my mouth while lying down.
“You called me again this time.”
【Yes, Jinu. Thank you so much for today.】
I sat up and turned my head towards the sound, and there was a person I had never seen standing there.
“… Who are you?”
【It’s me, Jinu.】
If you just listen to the voice, it’s clearly Gaia…
What I saw in front of me was not the glowing sphere I had seen so far, but a person standing around with a glowing light.
It was a person with wavy blonde hair that reached down to the floor and a goddess-like white dress wrapped around her body.
And when I look at his face, it shines with a dazzling radiance.
It literally shines.
The radiance is coming out so that the facial features are not visible at all.
What kind of bizarre sight is this?
At first glance, it looks like an egg ghost.
“Gaia…? What on earth does that look like?”
【Thanks to Jinu and the warriors for giving me strength, I was able to regain some of my strength. Thank you so much.】
Gaia bowed her head and thanked me.
“What do you mean you have time to recover your strength?”
【I’ve been using my strength to keep Demon from coming over here, so I don’t have time to regain my strength. The appearance I have shown up to this point is one I was barely able to maintain.】
Did the spherical shape shown so far have no power at all?
【Now I think I can stop demons a little better. And I think I can provide some help to Jinu as well.】
Then I’m really glad…
But considering what he had done so far, he couldn’t believe Gaia’s words.
