Chapter 98 – Making Gold (2)

Do-jin, who bought various things from Noah, immediately tested their efficacy in the dungeon.

“…… Is this good?”

The items sold by Noah were surprisingly effective. No one was hurt, so I couldn’t see the effect of the potion, but the effect of the bait for monsters I purchased was exceptional.

—Kleureung…….

Originally, the bait, which would have been made for use under the 10th floor of the dungeon where the blackout was lifted, exerted an excellent effect thanks to the werewolves’ sense of smell that penetrated even the blackout.

Do-jin just took out the bait, applied the medicine, and left it in the right place. After a while, when I went to the place where the bait was sprayed, I saw a werewolf who was paralyzed and limp.

It became a very simple task, just inserting the sword into the nape of the fallen Werewolf’s neck and retrieving the magic stone.

Orion, who was watching this, exclaimed and asked.

“Where did you get this? Leader?”

“From a street vendor.”

“Lie. Where is the merchant that sells these things? If there is, I want to see it too.”

“Do you want to go see it?”

It would be useless equipment if Seoyoon was present, but it was a very useful tool for the current party without Seoyoon.

‘If you can make something like this…….’

One skill was excellent. On that subject, if you see them selling things directly on the street, it seems that they are quite short of money…….

What if she directly sponsored her, would n’t it be possible to reproduce the selfishness of modern science that can’t even be dreamed of now with the power of engineers in this world?

What, a lot of money Too many to rot Enough to drown a single woman in a sea of ​​gold coins.

“Orion?”

“Yes?”

“Do you need anything?”

“… Why are you asking that all of a sudden?”

“Why do you ask? You want to find out who made this? That’s why I asked.”

“…… Ahhh! Is that what you were talking about? I’m not really…”

“So, am I going alone?”

“Yes, please come.”

After that, she quickly hunted today’s Chi monster. Perhaps because they earned enough money, the party’s purpose had also changed from money to improvement of their skills.

The party, who knew firsthand that the important thing to improve their skills was to do it steadily every day without overdoing it, pushed their limits and hunted monsters.

‘Although it’s not enough…….’

Dojin looked at the party. To be honest, it was a bit lacking. If I gave my best with my stupid words, I had to collapse on the spot. How could I come down the dungeon on my own?

Unfortunately, however, the dungeon was not a merciful place to leave those who had collapsed from exhaustion alone.

As Do-jin went up, there were fewer strong players with excellent skills, and he could understand to some extent why he was blocked by the wall.

It is really difficult for them to go through something that could threaten their growth. After a fight against the strong, where minor mistakes lead to death, you will be able to grow a little bit.

Even if you don’t have to go through such hardships, you won’t meet a strong person above you, so you have no choice but to settle for the reality.

Even if you don’t settle for the present, there are practically no ways to grow….

Dojin thought of the first thing he would ask Noah to make.

‘I need to make some exercise equipment. If I could, I’d like to have a poisonous needle, but should I ask for a weak poison as well?’

I also wanted a gun. Isn’t it cool? A lethal weapon that kills all masters in one shot always made a man’s heart thump.

However, Do-jin remembered that guns would not be so powerful in another world. Even if it was just Do-jin right away, when the bullets flew, it was all the more because Bell was confident.

‘I don’t know if it’s a nuclear missile.’

Thinking about it makes me laugh out loud. It’s nuclear, isn’t it impossible for a fantasy villager to make something like that?

* * *

“Ah, here… But.”

Dojin, who came out of the dungeon, went straight to the stall where Noah was doing business. However, perhaps because it was already late, all the merchants who were doing business in front of the dungeon had long since closed their business and disappeared.

“Looks like you already got off work.”

“Can I come again tomorrow? Well, it’s not something that disappears overnight….”

“Is that right?”

Do-jin said so, but he felt uneasy in the dark. Isn’t it a fantasy world? Needless to say, the security is the worst.

It was a very difficult world to be sure that you would see tomorrow what you saw today. If a person with alchemy skills like that is going to run a business to earn money, the accommodation he will be living in must be cheap.

A cheap inn is bound to be unstable.

‘I can’t help it…….’

It was good to have, but it was not a necessary talent, so Do-jin headed to the guild thinking to see you tomorrow.

And he found Noah protesting this or that in the guild.

“No, does this make sense!? Why…… !”

It was very nice to see you here. Dojin, who was about to head to the second floor, headed to the window where Noah was. The gaze staring at him from behind was very stingy, but he was not an idiot to openly fight with Do-jin, an advanced adventurer.

“Hi? What’s up?”

“Ah, Dojin-nim….”

“Never mind, go away…… Guest?”

Noah, who found Dojin, rolled his pupils up and down to check Dojin’s attire his. Wasn’t he the one who bought my expensive stuff without any hesitation?

He must have been a pretty high adventurer. His staff is also giving honorifics, and Noah, who noticed the situation to some extent, quickly clung to Dojin and expressed his regret.

“No, they take the commission twice!”

“Um, so?”

“Yes? No so…… Are you taking the fee twice?”

“So, what’s wrong with that?”

When Dojin rather told her that, Noah looked at her staff her, wondering if she had done something wrong.

The employee let out a sigh mixed with anger and explained again in a kind tone, remembering that he was in front of Dojin.

“The front of the dungeon is owned by our guild, and of course the guild receives the fee for the stalls Noah used.”

“Then why money… !”

“However, the right to ‘selling things’ itself in this city belongs to the Merchant Guild, so the fee paid there is deducted once more. Aren’t you educated when buying sales rights?”

Rather, her guild staff her glared at Noah with her eyes her saying that they were only doing her job her, and that it was her job her to be praised, not her shouting like this.

After hearing such a detailed explanation, Noah also realized the reason for taking the fee twice. But she was just too embarrassed. At best, she thought she sold a lot of expensive things to earn money to buy materials, but it’s only half of this.

Incorrect pricing. She was half the price she thought, so she couldn’t even get the material cost.

From the cost of lodging and lodging to eat and sleep today, the cost of materials to make new items, and the rental fee of the stalls to sell items tomorrow.

It was a deficit. I’ve been working all day, but there’s more money going out.

“This, this… That’s not okay…!”

Eventually, crying breaks out. It is unfair. There are too many thieves in the city. Sitting and stealing money, you bastards.

Why do they take commissions for selling things and charge usage fees for doing business in front of dungeons?

The dungeon won’t last!

“Do you need money?”

“Ugh…… Yes?”

“I asked if you needed money.”

“Need… I do.”

He looked up at Dojin with an expression as if asking for something obvious. Could it be that my body is the purpose? Noah stepped back behind her, slightly wary of him.

Do-jin, unaware of Noah’s thoughts, took her and went up to her second floor her. She was a space only high-level adventurers could enter, but no one stopped that high-level adventurer from taking someone there.

Unlike the first floor, a spacious lobby and soft sofas. And while Noah exclaimed in admiration while watching the refreshments prepared to eat while waiting, Dojin exchanged magic stones for money at the guild counter and returned.

Jjalang-.

Noah’s eyes widened when he saw the pocket full of silver coins. I couldn’t bear to count how many silver coins were in it.

“Cow, guest? What the hell is this…”

“The money I earned today.”

“Oh, today is the day… ?”

“Yes.”

Tak-tak, Do-jin took out several silver coins and displayed them on the table.

“This is the money I get for every monster I catch.”

And beside it, he started piling up dozens of silver coins. Noah swallowed saliva so hard that his neck his trembled, but he didn’t even notice.

“And this is the silver coin you earned today with the monsters you caught without touching them with your bait.”

“This, this…… ?”

How much was it? Considering that the money she earned today was a single silver coin, she could barely get her hands on it after working for several months.

It’s not like she earned it in one day, she says she earned it using only her bait her.

Gulp-

I’m greedy. I didn’t know that my ability was so good. Didn’t Dojin also say it? Thanks to ‘my bait’, he killed the monster without even touching it.

As she said that, what was the reason she piled up the silver coins? There must be a reason. She probably didn’t stretch it out to brag about her to her.

‘Are you sure you want to give it all to me?’

Noah’s eyes are stained with greed. With that alone, you can make the finest potion…… I was able to get reagents that I couldn’t even dream of normally, as well as an inn that I could afford to live in for a month.

It was n’t the inn where drunken men rattled her door every night trying to sneak into her room her, and it was n’t her her back alley her, Harlem, where you never knew when something might go wrong.

A normal life, a dream study, the money that will make it all possible…… !

“…… Thank you Guest.”

“What?”

“If you like my tool, that means you’re willing to buy it again, right?”

“Hoho, can you say that even after seeing this?”

“That’s the money the customer earns using my tools, whatever they do with the tools that have left my hands, that’s the customer’s ability.”

However, Noah eventually succeeded in overcoming that greed. It was her pride as an alchemist.

It wasn’t something I started looking at for money. Because it was fun to touch the reagents, the weeds on the roadside became medicine, and the medicine became poison, depending on her touch her, and that was fun.

That’s it.

My customer makes a lot of money with his tools his? It’s embarrassing, but that’s it. She made money in a way she couldn’t think of, so it didn’t belong to her in the first place.

Do-jin looked at Noah, who did not reveal a single bit of her greed, even after seeing this much money, and began to clap her hands.

“Pass.”

“…… Yeah? Sir, what is that?”

“My name is Kim Do-jin, and I am an advanced adventurer. As you can see, one money is a lot.”

“Uh… My name is Noah Meriel… Alchemist accident, I earned one silver coin today, but if I use all the materials and everything, I think there will be about five fairy tales left….”

“A silver coin? I would have made more money selling myself.”

“Cow, guest!? What to say… !”

Noah freaked out and hugged me. It was sexual harassment, but I didn’t intend to break the deal with just that.

Do-jin offered her a deal.

“Would you like to be my exclusive alchemist?”

“I’m full speed……!?”

Exclusive, what the hell are you trying to do? In Noah’s mind, a book titled ‘The Lewd Dragonian Maid’ comes to mind. In her head her, exclusivity was something like that.

Lascivious and obscene.

“My salary is one gold coin. Accommodation and food provided.”

“I’ll do it.”

But it doesn’t matter if it’s lewd or obscene. Noah could have sold his virgin under these conditions.
