Chapter 172 – 172. Willingness to Buy Everything

Four bottles of alcohol pulled out by bartender Jackson. The glistening appearance of the bottle and the sparkling liquor caught my attention.

Out of the 4 drinks I bought last time, amnestics and sex changers were really useful. I hope that these things will come out this time as well.

First, I checked the blood-red wine. Tree roots were tangled in the bottle, and it felt like fruit just picked from nature.

[Insatiable Impulse: Fermented Satyr Blood. Don’t worry about anything, pour a full cup and take it cool. The Satyr’s wish will lead you to a world of miracles. If you take it, your body will be in a ‘perfect’ state, and you will have wondrous dreams. Feel the expanse of talent by leaps and bounds. You will have more talent than others in everything.]
[Caution. When you take it, you fall into one of three urges: 1. Self-harm, 2. Murder, 3. Cannibalism. If you do not satisfy these urges in time, you will suffer from severe anxiety and a fatal sleep disorder.]
[Price: 14400C]

“Fuck.”

This was a drink that raised the ‘talent’ of the person who took it and made it an outstanding genius in every way. But instead, it was also a cursed drug that made me feel self-destructive. It is an item that makes you feel endless suicidal thoughts, desire to kill, or longing for human flesh consumption.

“It’s fucking dangerous. I will buy it right away.”

Haha. Worth the risk.. Is this it?”

“Yes. After all… My slaves can’t refuse my orders. You can produce geniuses, so there is no reason to refuse.”

“Indeed. That’s right. I’ll pack it right away.”

Maybe it was more than 10,000 coins, so the bartender carefully lifted the bottle and packed it in a box. In the meantime, I checked the liquor next to me.

This time, it was a blue drink that looked like it had been scooped up from the sea. Just looking at the color reminded me of a drink called Blue Hawaii that I had bought at a store in the past.

‘The color is so pretty.’

I read the details of the drink. In the meantime, the bartender, who had an endless urge, made three cocktails with a smile and passed one to the three of us. Of course, no one touched it. It was Jackson who never gave up. The warning that only one person will take it is too persistent.

[That Summer Day: A mixture of lemon and lime flavors. The moment you take a sip, you fall into a deep sleep. Those who drank and fell asleep on that summer day all had similar dreams. It is a dream to wake up on a sandy beach on an uninhabited island and spend a blissful time. Put down your weary life for a while and enjoy a leisurely summer on the beach full of endless happiness and free pleasure.]
[Caution. You may not wake up wet with happiness. It is extremely addictive.]
[Price: 5000C]

“This is… Hmm…”

I hesitated to buy ‘That Summer Day’ for a while.

‘It’s a happy dream…’

In fact, it’s a medicine that makes you want to drink it until you die… There’s nothing happier than dying in your sleep, so I wondered if I could use this properly.

Most of the people I want to kill are either my enemies or the people who want to kill me. I don’t think I’ll give you a comfortable rest. However, I am concerned about the fact that it is highly addictive for me to drink.

“For now… I’ll buy it.”

I once bought that summer day. Up to this point, I have come across various products and survived in various ways, and I have felt that once I buy something, I have something to use later. Even if you don’t have to use it, it’s not that expensive.

I then checked out the next drink. It was rum with the color of the universe. Seeing the indescribable vivid colors shimmering mysteriously, I fell in love with it. To the point where I want to stare at the alcohol in the bottle all day…

[Unkind Attraction: Dark rum. Taking it will take you to one of two locations. First, an abandoned temple in a broken dimension. Second, a space probe that has stopped operating. I hope you can find what you are looking for here.]
[Caution. If you take it frequently, you will become “Easy to get swept away”. In that case, you can be dragged in without even trying.]
[Price: 20000C]

This was a drink with an unusual effect different from what I had thought.

‘Transferring to another dimension…’

Even the places to be moved looked very dangerous. Moreover, the warning about being easily swept away made me very afraid.

It’s a thing that doesn’t show any benefits… But the phrase that I hope you can find what you’re looking for is quite bothersome. I felt like I was hiding a huge treasure.

In the end, I closed my eyes and burned 20,000 coins on something I might or might not need. Well, the slaves will take care of themselves.

As the owner, let’s not be so obsessed with coin consumption. After all, when you wake up, the slaves automatically supply you with coins. I just have to go on a spree… I felt a little relieved when I thought that.

“Then, this is the last item. I hope you like it.”

“Ah, yes.”

I checked the golden sparkling wine bottle. Actually, this is what stood out the most.

[Interstellar Flight Alone: ​​This is a honey wine that goes down your throat. If you take four sips in succession, you will be teleported to the place you imagine after about 30 seconds. You may get various injuries such as tearing your skin or getting frostbite while moving.]
[Caution. If you can’t properly think of the place you want to go… You will be dragged to the nest of ‘they’ somewhere in the universe.]
[Price: 50000C]

“This is something you can’t live without.”

Haha… It’s something that can be escaped anytime, anywhere.”

It’s 50,000 coins. That’s a huge price. However, the performance was so great that I couldn’t help but buy it. With this, I could just run away alone in a place like Shivering Mansion. No matter what happens to the remaining guys, it will be possible to escape immediately.

‘Of course, the amount is a bit too small…’

Honey wine was in a bottle the size of a soju bottle. Drink it a few times and it will go away. It would have been nice if it could be used permanently, but I couldn’t help it because it was not a simple tool, but only effective when consumed.

“Then, since we’ve bought everything, we’ll go now.”

“Ah, now, wait a minute..!!”

“No!! Good bye!!!”

Jackson, the bartender who persistently recommends something. He was a man who didn’t give up, and he was the type to cling on to. Therefore, we quickly got out of the store.

The place to go now is a slave shop run by a clown. If you accept the last member of the black market underground raid here, it is the most dangerous place in terms of risk.

“Uh, over there… Joon-ah. Those…”

“Aram. You just have to care. If you keep looking at me for no reason, I think you’re interested in me and come closer. Then it gets really difficult.”

“Uh. Okay.”

The road to the circus is an abandoned amusement park. There are black figures swaying and wandering around. It was clear that they would harm me if I looked at them or showed interest in them, so I quickly grabbed Aram’s hand and pulled him away.

At that time, Cheshire, who was leading the way, said something strange.

“Hmm.. This is… Strange…”

“Yes?”

“Something… The internal structure has completely changed. Juna… It seems we’ve lost our way.”

Cheshire’s bombshell remark made me feel weak in my legs.

“Hey, you lost your way…?”

“Well… I think the clown did something. It looks like they’re trying to fuck us…”

“No, that crazy bastard suddenly… Ah.”

Come to think of it, last time we bought Palus at the lowest price of 10,000 coins, we had a lot of fun with him. I think the clown was very angry at that time. Stupid guy…

“No, that’s only a bad inventory. Inventory or what, did you just relocate the store?”

“That’s right. It seems that he has hated us for quite some time.”

“Uh, over there… Joon-ah. What is it?”

Aram is anxious. I explained her rough situation to her.

“Huh… Fucked?”

“Uh. Very.”

“Then what do you do now? Should I just go back?”

Perhaps there was something wrong with Aram’s question, Cheshire quickly shook her head and answered.

“No. I can’t go on like this. You just need to find out. Trust me and follow me. How much experience do I have as a guide? I just can’t go.”

“As expected.. Trustworthy.”

“Cheshire sister… It’s wonderful.”

“Whoop whoop…”

As we cheered on, Cheshire started looking for the circus venue.

After that, we went to the circus for about 2 hours. If I had only had 4 hours, I would have just given up halfway through, but I didn’t have to find a door to get out of the twisted alley anyway, so it didn’t matter much if I delayed the time.

Moreover, this is also the final destination. I’m a little worried about Ayla, who will be waiting for us in the central plaza, but knowing that she, a black market veteran, will probably be more comfortable than we are, puts her mind at ease.

“Found!! You damn bastard!!!”

The circus venue I finally found. The clown who was cleaning the audience seats saw us and was startled and pointed his finger at me.

“Oh no!! What!! It’s time for you guys to go!! What!! Why did you come!!”

He was clearing out the circus, as if he had expected us to wait a while before heading back. However, when he suddenly entered, he shouted in a very panicked manner. As expected, it seems that he intended to prevent us from coming by twisting the road.

Cheshire laughed at him and made the most of his legitimate request as a guest.

“Enough! There is no time, so hurry up and bring out the goods!!”

“Ahhhhh… These tough guys… Crawling in… It’s time to close the door in a little bit…”

“Therefore! Move quickly before the door closes!! You slow slug!”

“Kreukreuk…!”

The clown frowned as if he was going to die of disgrace and guided us to the basement.

“Aram, don’t go near the bars.”

“Huh. I know.”

We followed behind the reassuring Cheshire. It almost feels like the neighborhood bully hyung is on my side. Just before, in the food alley, he blew off the head of an unlucky donut shop owner. It’s incredibly reliable in many ways.

The clown, who soon reached the inner end of the cellar, showed 9 slaves instead of 4.

“Look, look. It’s because there are a lot of people who don’t sell. Pick something!”

“Oh.. Really.. They are in stock…”

I stopped admiring it.

Because the slave traders brought out all the ones I had given up on buying.
