Chapter 232 – Big Trouble Sounds!
“How many jobs do you do? Universities, academies, and underground guild requests.”
“I rarely go to school, and I usually only stay at the academy in the morning. And this is the first time we’ve done a request together.”
In fact, after returning, it was safe to say that my life revolved around the quest.
So, the most important part of my life that Kim Rua mentioned is missing.
And the part where I decided to speak to her today was also missing.
“And I have one more thing to do.”
“What is that?”
Rua Kim looked at me with curious eyes.
As expected, as I had lived for a long time in a country much tougher than Korea, I didn’t think too much about the fact that I had requested an underground guild, and that a person had died in the process.
“I am having a party. I’m the party leader so…”
“Why do you say that now!”
Rua Kim’s voice rose.
“I will too! Put me in too!”
For some reason, I thought Rua Kim would react like this.
So she wasn’t too worried about bringing up the party.
Rather, it was just difficult to tell the other side of the story.
That part went easily.
“Yeah, I came to you to talk about it anyway. Will you join my party, Lua?”
“Huh!”
“But I go to the academy on weekdays, and other members of the same age have things to do, so I can’t go to the dungeon often.”
“It can’t be helped. By the way, isn’t a party supposed to be run flexibly? If things don’t work out, I can’t help it, but people who have time can enter the dungeon, and the lack of people can be supplemented from time to time.”
Rua Kim seemed to lack knowledge and information in some ways, but she was very knowledgeable and active in some ways.
“When I was in Brazil, there were a lot of kids partying. Because it was often made by high school students. Even if it’s illegal, if you pay a little bit, everyone will turn a blind eye to it.”
“I see.”
Then, it was understood that Kim Rua knew so well about her party activities.
“Anyway, it’s exciting! I can’t wait to party with you!”
“But before that, I have a problem to solve.”
“What is that?”
“You are a summoner, and as Seung-ah noona said, you are full of talent.”
“Ah~ It’s like that again.”
“Right now, only Louis has one summoned beast, and honestly, it’s not like we can guarantee that Louis can display outstanding fighting power.”
“That’s… That’s right.”
When Rua Kim was kidnapped before, Louie was summoned and played a dazzling role.
But with that, it was difficult to see that Louis’ abilities would work well in dungeons.
Above all, Louis was more than a mere summoned beast to Kim Rua.
“You wouldn’t want Louie to get hurt or lose his life either. To do that, you need to raise him more firmly.”
“Ah… It’s true. If Louie gets hurt, it will really hurt my heart.”
“Even in that respect, you need to have a strong heart. Whether it’s a human hunter or a pet, they grow more in the process of being injured and broken. You should keep that part in mind as well.”
“Huh…”
Neither did I.
According to Kim Hae-na, Boba was a summoned beast with great potential.
It can be said that it was great luck that he came to me.
In order to make good use of that luck, it was necessary to actively develop him.
It just means that you shouldn’t rely on the ability to ‘manage the summons’.
‘But will the effect of the quest affect the summoned beast?’
I wondered if the effect of increasing the growth rate would affect the summoned beast.
Perhaps, since the existence of a summoner is an inevitable relationship with the summoner, I think it will naturally be connected.
I came up with an idea.
“How about increasing our number of summons?”
“Increasing the number of summons? So, other than Louie?”
“Yes, it will take effort, but there is no law that says you have to summon one at a time. I heard that some really famous summoners summon hundreds of summoners at a time.”
It was true.
Among world-famous summoners, there was a case of summoning beasts in units of hundreds.
That they are that much means that even lower level summoners will have a tolerable number of summons.
At least you won’t have only one dog like me or Kim Rua.
A method that could be used to increase the number of summons immediately was to buy a new one from the fat shop.
Just like Rua Kim did to Louie and I did to Boba, you can manage it with reverse summoning.
“Shall we buy a new one?”
“Oh, good good! Shopping!”
At first, I thought about going to the fat shop to find a new pet, but I remembered that it would be too much work.
You don’t have to do that.
Because you can search online as well.
Lua Kim and I lay down on the bed together and started looking for a new summoner.
There were so many dungeon fats available.
A child brought from a dungeon, a hybrid species, and even an awakened water.
There were three major categories, but what we were looking for was pure species brought from the dungeon.
That way, it will be easy to manage with reverse summoning, and it will make it possible for you to grow yourself.
While looking for such a suitable summoner, we soon ran into a problem.
“It’s hard to find the right one.”
“If it’s okay, why is the price so high?”
Like my greed, I wanted to increase the number a lot, not just buy one or two.
The beauty of summoning was to summon one or two precious servants, but above all, it was to summon them in groups and compete with numbers.
Pat’s price range was largely formed in two stages.
One is a literal fat that is raised like a pet.
And another type that can be used in dungeons through a taming process.
Naturally, the latter was overwhelmingly expensive.
Species that were already guaranteed to be active were easily priced at billions of won, even though they were still young.
‘I guess so.’
When you think about it, it was a natural thing.
For a summoner or tamer, the summoned beast or pat they commanded was the most important combat tool.
Just as good equipment and weapons can easily cost hundreds of millions of dollars, the same phenomenon exists here.
Moreover, it is natural that the higher price was attached in that demand was low and difficult to obtain.
“At this rate, the pillars will be uprooted.”
Kim Lua clicked her tongue and said.
She is said to have lived in Brazil for a long time, but at times the Korean she spoke was more Korean than common Koreans.
To be honest, there’s nothing you can’t live without.
The fats bought with expensive money must be worth that much.
It would be right to see that the market price is usually attached appropriately.
If you put a fat worth hundreds of millions of won into a C-class dungeon and run it, it won’t pay off.
Even so, it was a bit unreasonable to buy hundreds of millions of won worth of fats.
Even if it were me, there would be a limit to the amount of money Kim Lua could spend.
“Let’s go see Seung-ah noona. It might be better to ask and decide than to decide by ourselves.”
“Yeah, that’s a good idea.”
For that reason, we went to see Lee Seung-ah together.
When she contacted me, she said that she was still in the club room today.
Thanks to me, Shin Hye-yeon, and Park Eun-ha being listed as members of the club, the Demonology Research Club with the fake title of “Magic Research Club” Was able to survive.
And practically, it was used as a laboratory for Lee Seung-ah.
Considering that it was for an S-class demon sorcerer, the school couldn’t necessarily see it as a loss.
It was all the more so when you consider that there are many club rooms that are uselessly wasted to enjoy youth – although it would be prejudiced to call this a waste.
Anyway, Lua Kim and I went to see Seungah Lee after a long time.
Because I had contacted her in advance, as soon as she knocked, I heard her happy voice.
“Come in~~”
I went inside and Lee Seung-ah was sitting alone.
Somehow, the atmosphere of the club room was more eerie and deep than before, and it felt more like a demonic arts club.
The reason for this was not only because of the few additional props, but also because Lee Seung-ah’s achievements as a demon mage were deepening day by day.
After meeting Han Yeon-su and reading the book she wanted, she made great progress in her demon arts.
It was self-evident that he grew up in many areas with that opportunity.
“What are you doing here today?”
Lee Seung-ah asked with her eyes shining.
You can guess that Lua Kim and I came side by side because she was curious about summoning, and being able to teach her about it seemed like a great joy to her.
“Actually…”
I explained her situation to her.
I wanted to increase the number of summons, but it was too expensive to buy it myself.
I asked if it was worth paying that much money for.
“It sounds like a big deal!”
After hearing my story, Lee Seung-ah said that at once.
