Chapter 7 – Reincarnation
“… It hurts.”
Jun touched his red, swollen cheek and made a crying sound.
Then the criminal who had thrown a double side kick to his cheek carefully caressed his cheek and asked.
“… Does it hurt a lot?”
“Yes, it hurts a lot.”
“Ugh~. “I told you to do it in moderation.”
After saying that, Fortuna activated the sacred power core located in the center of her chest.
The mana was sucked into her sacred power core and transformed into her divine power, and was soon gathered into her hands by the prayers Fortuna recited.
Seongbeop-Heal
Fortuna’s small hands turned white.
Soon, Jun’s cheek, which was touching her hand, also turned pure white, and the swelling began to noticeably go down.
“It doesn’t hurt anymore, right?”
“No, it still hurts.”
In response to Fortuna’s question, Jun shook her head, smirked, and tapped her finger on her cheek.
Fortuna, who sensed what he wanted, groaned slightly and said,
“Just this once. Side♡”
Her face blushed, and she kissed his cheek.
Hehe.”
“Don’t laugh like an idiot.”
“What should I do if it builds on its own?”
“… Fool.”
A pink air current began to flow between Jun and Fortuna.
Leon, who was walking together, smiled vaguely and walked away from the pink airflow.
For some reason, his side felt cold.
Roaring Roaring Roaring
After a while they reached the market.
The market was crowded with merchants selling goods and villagers looking at the goods.
However, the atmosphere was a bit calm.
Looking at the villagers with stern faces, one after another heading somewhere, I could roughly guess the reason.
“Maybe it’s because of the village chief?”
Likewise, Leon, who guessed the reason, asked as if seeking consent.
“Probably so. Well, let’s leave that to the adults and let us children look at things in peace.”
It may be a bad thing for the merchants, but Jun really liked the fact that there were fewer and fewer people.
He didn’t like noise and crowds.
“Okay. I guess so. Anyway, what should we watch first?”
“Don’t you have something to do before that? “I have to find the two tomboys.”
“It’s just here. They say even tigers will come if you tell them.”
As Fortuna turned her head in the direction she was pointing at, Jun could see two young girls in the distance running towards her.
She was a tomboy after all, jumping around with her skirt flapping.
“Leon! Come on! “I was waiting!”
“Leon oppa! Why did you come now?”
Linda, a year older than the dog, and Hennie, a year younger than the cat, each held onto Leon’s arm and chattered.
Leon accepted it with a gentle smile, and the two tomboys laughed at the smile and chattered even more.
‘After all, people need to look good.’
Jun, who suddenly became a sack of barley turned in the exact opposite direction, once again realized the eternal truth that had been handed down since ancient times.
“Do you want little kids to cling to you like that?”
“No, not that.”
Jun’s preference was for a plump sister like the angel version of Fortuna.
Jun was just jealous of being popular with many people of the opposite sex.
“When you grow up, you will be as popular as me.”
“When I become an adult.”
Jun’s current appearance is definitely better than his previous life, but he is not a super handsome boy like Leon.
This is because the divine protection is not yet showing its light properly.
The blessing given by Bright God was a growth type.
As the core within his body grew, the divine protection began to shine.
“Why did God give us this kind of protection?”
“I guess they want you to grow diligently. So that I can use more power.”
Due to the balance patch, Fortuna was only able to use a similar level of power to Jun.
Even the nearly all-powerful nova was divided into three cores and could only produce a certain amount of power.
“You said there was no need to fight, but this seems like you are urging someone to fight.”
“I guess not. My father would like you to run away from danger as much as possible until I regain some of my strength. “Maybe.”
Amadorani.
Jun sighed at her uncertain answer.
“Anyway, it seems like it was true.”
“? “What?”
“I mean, you were amazing.”
Otherwise, God couldn’t have cared and worried so much.
Jun looked at Fortuna sitting on his shoulder with her new eyes.
“Hmph! I am the massacre of Lumen. As soon as the invading troops heard that a massacre was coming, they started foaming at the mouth and started a fight.”
Fortuna raised her nose triumphantly.
Jun clapped her hands in agreement and soon her face turned blue.
“Then it must be true to say that you have many enemies?”
“… Right.”
“… Shall we stay apart for a while?”
“Whenever you say you want to be together, what are you doing now? That’s it. Even if we live, we live together, and if we die, we die together! Okay!”
“Yes~.”
Jun just nodded her head weakly.
However, it was only on the outside that I felt quite good on the inside.
Because it seemed like she had made a hundred-year vow with her.
“June, Fortuna.”
“What was it?”
“Henny, you can’t say things like that.”
The three people’s eyes were focused on Jun and Fortuna.
When Jun asked why he was calling, Leon said.
“Linda and Henny said they found a vendor selling delicious snacks. Let’s go together.”
“Well, I took the elixir, so I’ll go separately later.”
“Oh, that’s right. “I’m sorry, because of me.”
“It’s okay. Rather, please find Harry and come with him. “I’ll probably be alone.”
“Okay. “I will do that.”
“Ugh. Leon oppa, are you serious?”
“Henny!”
“I said you shouldn’t do that!”
Leon and Linda scolded Hennie for being disgusted.
Jun also tried to reprimand her, but she stopped because she thought it would only backfire on her.
After a while, Linda and Leon disappeared into the crowd, taking Hennie with her puffy cheeks as if she was upset.
“Shall we go now?”
“Are you going to go see that guy again?”
“Yes, there might be good news. That guy also pays the best price.”
Jun walked towards the carriages parked near the market.
As he arrived near the carriage, one of the soldiers guarding the carriage spotted him and waved his hand happily.
“Kid, are you here? “Did you come to see Mr. Lawrence again today?”
“Yes, are you there now?”
In response to Jun’s question, the soldier shrugged his shoulders.
“I was originally supposed to have a meeting with the village chief, but it was canceled for some reason. Come on in, Mr. Lawrence just told me to send you out as soon as you arrive.”
The soldier cleared the way for us to go quickly.
Jun bowed his head at him and walked towards the largest and strongest-looking carriage among the carriages.
Jun arrived at the carriage a little later and could see a man in his early 30s checking the luggage inside the carriage.
Jun said as he approached him.
“Now, I’m telling you to leave that kind of work to your subordinates. “What is the person responsible for commerce?”
“Haha. I feel very anxious if I leave it to someone else. Even if it’s a little annoying, it’s better for me to do it comfortably.”
The man laughed and answered without hesitation.
If you look at his reaction, he seems like a nice person, but when he works, he is really sharp at differentiating between construction and construction.
“What happened this time?”
Lawrence grinned at Jun’s question and entered the carriage.
And then he took out a small box that was hidden deep inside.
“Oh, oh! “Did you save it this time?”
“I was lucky. “Just when I was about to go up, an adventurer party posted it on the guild exchange.”
Lawrence said and handed the contents of the box to June.
“Distortion?”
“I checked with the wizard at the top, and it’s definitely space magic. It seemed like a high level of shield magic.”
“Is it a defensive magic? “You brought it to just the right time.”
Storage, movement and avoidance, defense.
There are three main types of magic that Jun thought was necessary to become a merchant.
Storage was solved with the pocket plane that Fortuna knew, and movement and evasion were solved by obtaining the Blink Spell Book from Lawrence, just like now.
So, she was left with only the last defense, when Lawrence arrived with a related magic book.
‘You must buy this!’
Even though Jun was determined on the inside, she tried to act calm on the outside and took out her money bag from the space.
“My Junie is so bad at acting.”
“Haha. Jun, you can’t become a merchant like that.”
“… What’s wrong with my face? “You have a complete poker face.”
Jun responded bluntly.
Then Fortuna grabbed the slightly raised corner of Jun’s mouth and shook it back and forth, as if asking what this was.
Okay. Okay, stop.
Jun swallowed the humiliation and admitted defeat and said.
“So how much do you plan on selling it for?”
“Can you criticize someone who is supposed to be part of your family? “Just give me five platinum coins.”
Perhaps because we are being invaded by other worlds and often join forces, all the currencies in this world are unified into one type.
They are divided into four types: copper coins, silver coins, gold coins, and platinum coins.
When converted to Korean currency, a copper coin was worth 1,000 won per coin, a silver coin was worth 10,000 won, a gold coin was worth 100,000 won, and a platinum coin was worth 1 million won.
For anything above that, checks guaranteed by the church, the Magic Tower, and the Third Reich were used.
In bustling cities and labyrinth cities, items similar to cards from previous lives were used, but in other areas, currency was still mainly used.
“It’s cheaper than I thought. The Blink magic book cost fifteen platinum coins.”
“Blink and teleportation are special. Other spatial magic is not used very often, so it is not as expensive as this one. Well, it’s that hard to find.”
Jun chimed in with a ‘hmm~’ and took out five brilliantly shining platinum coins from his coin pocket and handed them to Lawrence.
