Chapter 78 – 1 Gold

I felt like I was about to die because I had spent two nights and exhausted my energies.
Actually it was three days. A day when you catch an ogre. A day with Winia. And now the day.

The two women sucked all the jinwonjingi (眞原珍氣) of the whole body.
Death is near the front of the eyes darkened.

Lying on the bed, I spoke emptyly like an old man reciting his will soon to die.
It was like the sound of bare tree branches being kicked by the wind.

“Yeah, I was mad at you for trying to send me off to another woman casually. I think we had different ideas, but it was never supposed to be like that.”

Cloudy was lying next to me, holding me. She replied in a somber voice. Her long ears her were hanging down.

“Yeah… I see. I just thought you might want to have children… I’m sorry. I must have guessed because you’re new to men.”

When it comes to women, you and I are the first.

“Okay, that’s okay, Shiba. It’s common sense to say that monogamy is a monogamy, one man for each woman and one woman for each man.
“Okay, I’m going to apologize, so forgive me now. Huh?”
“Okay.”

I stroked her ear her. As she did so, her drooping ears her popped up again. I hope this is voluntary.

“Ah.”

Anyway, I decided to forgive her. Hadn’t she been told that she was wrong all night long? Punishment was enough.

“I forgot you.”

I felt like I could now close my eyes in peace.

It was a short life.

I had lived for twenty years without any stimulation, but the last time I lived in a different world was an intense and stimulating experience. After living fiercely in that barren place, he goes like this.

Finally, I wanted to see my hometown.
It shimmered in my eyes, but I didn’t even have the strength to reach out anymore.

Sergeant Bok narrowly escaped, but now it was impossible.
It sucked all my energy.

My eyes are closed
Death is near

“This is death.”

Die like this

.

.

.

ㅡNo fuck, if you close your eyes here, you really search!

“Huh!”

I took a deep breath and jumped up.

“Heo-euk… Heo-eok…! Amchang, I almost searched for you just now!”
“Ka, kat? Why, what, what’s up!”
“Ha ha… Ha… No, it’s okay. I had a brief seizure.”

I feel like my seizure cycles are getting shorter and shorter these days.

Is it because I saw too many human corpses? It sounds like you need some medication that you take regularly. If I start to see the Teletubbies again, I’ll have to seriously think about it.

My body was swollen. I stretched out. When I turned my head, there was a crunching sound. My whole body is sore. Having moved so vigorously, there was nothing strange about the muscle pain.

After a brief stretch, I took out my wallet from the clothes I had taken off and put a 1 gold coin in my hand.

“Hey, Cloudy. It’s 1 gold.”

Yes. It was 1 gold that I received because it served as a decisive bait to kill the ogre. The finish was done by Lady Isvant, but she gave me a reward. Gold coins glittered.

“Let’s break this in half.”

It was, of course, half the money. If Cloudy hadn’t snatched me at the end, he would have died. She was the one who initiated the operation in the first place.

“…Do you have anything to share? You can just carry it with you. I’ve been waiting on purpose to give it to you…”
“It’s nonsense. Originally, you take your own money. That’s better security.”

If you get pickpocketed, you’ll just regress as an infant. Shiba.

“And it would be unfair if I had it all and then went back.”

Since it was impossible to split the gold coin in half, it was necessary to exchange money first. What to do with this money I’m thinking about going to the swordsman’s guild once.

“Hmm, then cut.”
“Ok?”

Cloudy stood up. Her naked body her, too, loosened her body her with her stretches. It was a fluid motion that brought her fingertips to the floor as she bent over at the waist. The sight of her behind her moved her heart again, but she desperately suppressed her erection.

“That’s with me.”

One more time, it was a one-way trip to Gura Anchigo and Bukmangsan (北邙山).
You can go there and cross Samdocheon.

Finishing her stretch her, she started putting on her clothes her.

“Nice room, let’s go get one.”

Seeing that, I decided to do it. Well, good I had money, so I didn’t have to sleep in such a poor place. If you think about the inn where you spent the day with Winia yesterday, the quality of life increases when the living environment is good.

“Yeah, well. Let’s go.”

So we came out. I came out and ate this and that, and looked around the city while snacking on snacks. The destination was a place where quality accommodations were concentrated.

“If you rent a room for a month at a time, you’ll get a fair price.”

Indeed, it was a clean neighborhood befitting an inn with expensive lodging. I entered the appropriate place, arm in arm with Cloudy.

Inside, the owner was an employee wearing clean clothes. No, rather than the owner, he is an employee. It is like a big hotel. I talked to him

“I’m looking to stay for a month, how much is it?”
“Do you want to stay for a long time? If you pay for a month’s worth in one lump sum, it will be 4 silver.”

It’s fucking expensive.
I thought you fainted.

However, since Cloudy wanted it, he could afford to spend that much.

“Hmm, can I take a look inside?”
“Of course.”

The staff directed us to a room on the second floor. It was a room with a shower and toilet in a moderately large living room. I really liked the room itself. First of all, just having a shower room was an advantage for 30 Cooper. Since the entrance fee to the public bath was 1 copper, a month would be a good deal.

“How are you, Cloudy?”
“I like it very much.”
“Then let’s go here.”

Cool payment. I held out a gold coin.

“Is that a gold coin?”
“Do you have any change?”
“No, please wait a moment. No, follow me.”

When I followed the staff into a small room on the first floor, he took out a leather pouch. Then he poured the silver coins on the table and counted them.

“There are exactly 96 1 silver coins here. Please check.”

It’s thorough. When I counted, there was nothing wrong. I packed it up and put it in my wallet. And he handed over the key.

“Ah, but I’m going to keep things like luggage inside. If something is stolen by a thief, will it be handled separately?”
“Take care of valuables yourself, and if other things are stolen, we will compensate to some extent depending on the responsibility.”

I asked essential things prior to my long stay. It was my first time staying for a long time, so I needed to hear a detailed answer as much as possible.

“Specifically, how much is compensation?”
“What kind of golden calf are you going to leave behind?”
“Well, it’s like clothes. It’s an ambiguous thing to carry around.”
“That’s enough. But don’t leave anything of value around. Valuable things are difficult to repay.”
“Be careful.”

It’s not going to happen.
All adventurers always carry a wallet that is no different from all their possessions.

“Oh right.”
“Do you have any more questions?”
“Is the soundproofing here good?”

At my last question, the clerk looked at Cloudy and nodded his head with a firm face.

Well, that’s satisfying.

As for the key, I got one, and the innkeeper said he had another. He also added that if you lose the key, you will have to pay for it, so never lose it.

I went into the room with Cloudy. He evaded trying to hug me from behind.

Do you plan to kill me

“Kat?”
“Let’s get some sleep. I need to wash up first.”

I threw off my clothes and went into the shower. There was a pipe connected to the wooden barrel, and it seemed that groundwater was being pumped up with some kind of device. Unfortunately, only cold water came out. Of course, that alone is satisfactory.

After I was washing my body for a while, Cloudy came in.
She asked to wash with me, so I sat her down in a chair and washed behind her.

“Ho, I can wash myself…”
“Stay still.”

Cloudy’s hair was a pale purple. The color contrasted with the brown skin and was very mysterious. It’s a pity that there is no shampoo when you wash your hair.

“Your hair color is so pretty. Whose genetics is it?”
“…Mother. She was a little darker purple.”
“Really? So, do you resemble your mother? Then, is your father a human?”
“It’s the opposite.”
“That’s amazing.”

Are you a man?

According to Cloudy’s explanation her, in addition to humans, Dark Elves and Desert Orcs live in her hometown her, Shredik. Orcs are enemies, but humans and dark elves are said to have an amicable relationship.

“Hey!”

As she explained, she ran her fingers over her long ears. She could be seen visibly withdrawing, so she played with her hand her a little more vigorously. Come to think of it, Cloudy was wearing six gold earrings. Six in all, three for each of her ears.

Other than that, there was no other jewelry, and there didn’t seem to be any tattoos on the body. Do you like earrings?

“Do these earrings mean something? Eh.”

She thought about that for a while as she frantically touched her ear to her. When she came to her senses her, she was leaning against me as Cloudy, her face her flushed red, let out her excited breath.

“Ha ha…”
“What, what is it. Ears, were your weak points?”

Also, an elf is an elf.
She was drooping as if she had completely gone.

I gently wiped her body her with a towel, lifted her up and put her down on the bed. And I lay down next to her and immediately closed my eyes.

***

I woke up after sleeping for a whole day.

It was refreshing, as if it had been lost for a while and then revived. It would probably feel like this if you were resurrected as a zombie from a corpse. It was a sweet sleep where I could keenly feel why the dead hate those who have life.

She packed her clothes and put them on. Today, I plan to go to the swordsman guild. She also had to say hello to the guild leader, and that’s when she had to tell him that she had sent her regards to Risha, the warlock. Come to think of it, she hadn’t been looking for her since then.

You must have money, it would be nice to learn how to cut a knife while you go.

“Hmm, it would be great if I could teach you.”

When he heard that he was going to the swordsman’s guild, Cloudy got lucky.

“Unfortunately, I’ve been traveling alone, so I’ve never taught anyone. It’s like, it’s too difficult. I don’t know what other people’s senses are.”
“Well, how is it? Each person has a different area of ​​expertise. Do all teachers say they are good at studying?”

The other day, I asked Cloudy to teach me how to use a knife. Then she tried it once, but she didn’t seem to understand my movements at all. Just because you’re good at knife cutting doesn’t necessarily mean you’re good at teaching.

“Anyway, I’m thinking of going back today and learning how to sharpen my knife again. If you have money, you have to invest it. Otherwise, it doesn’t matter if you make money or not.”
“It’s a good attitude. All men should always pursue strength.”

Cloudy was also dressed. I wonder what kind of place the swordsman guild is. She came out with her.

“Maybe once I start, I’ll do nothing else for a month and just do that, is that okay?”
“I don’t care. You have money anyway, and you have a place to stay for a month, right? Or I think it would be fun to watch you practice.”
“Oh, shame on you.”

Eating with a knife, people always have to live while clinging to improving their skills.

In order to become a true swordsman, it is said that you have to train for the rest of your life. Skill was an asset. An intangible asset that will follow you and help you for the rest of your life without running away.

Then, it is common sense to invest whenever you can afford it.

One day, the moment will surely come when life and death will depend only on one’s own skills. As long as he lived on a knife-bap, it was inevitable. Then I had to prepare for that day. To win and survive.

In fact, I have money, so there is nothing to do. It wasn’t that I was into drugs or gambling, and if I had money, I had to spend it in the right place as much as possible. All of his wealth was about 50 silver, so even pouring half of it into the guild was no loss at all.

Anyway, we arrived in front of the swordsman guild.

I opened the door, listening to the constant shouting.
