Chapter 99

Episode 99

“I’ve been back...”

Kwajijik!

Damian opened the door to the adventurer’s guild and shook his head at the same time.

It was an attack that could never have been avoided if it were not for the desperate warning and improved physicality of < Sixth Sense >.

A thrown object with such terrifying power that it passed by his ear and etched lightning-like gold on one side of the stone wall next to the door.

“ah. This is not right.”

“....”

And while Damian felt a chilly cold sweat running down his back.

Even the high-level Assassin classes could vaguely guess who was the one who used the powerful throwing technique.

‘Fountain pen?’

Patter!

The memorization that penetrated half of the stone wall was none other than a fountain pen for employees with the pattern of the adventurer’s guild.

It was because it was an item attached to the mercenary management chart that receptionists in the guild often carried.

“...Maria?”

“Okay Hassan. Got it.”

Hassan sighed and glared at him, and Maria made a gesture of surrender. At the same time, the atmosphere within the branch, which had hardened as if time had stopped, began to melt like snow in an instant.

It was also true that Maria’s speculation that filled the inside of the building was so terrifying that ordinary people would forget to even breathe.

If Hassan hadn’t drained his energy and neutralized it, the most ordinary people would have fainted one by one.

“came? self?”

“Uh...”

Ttonggak Ttogak!

So, Damian licks his lips as he sees Maria approaching him.

I began to send passionate eyes toward Hassan, who was reflected in the crowd of hundreds of people who were trying hard to turn their backs on me.

“Hassan? How can I...”

“Take care of it. I don’t know.」

「...Yes?」

「Good luck. If it’s you, you can do it.”

Although it wasn’t a direct whisper or telepathic exchange.

Judging from the exchange of glances we shared during that short time,

Damien’s anxious premonition was never wrong.

“What are you rolling your eyes about? huh? Anything interesting?”

“no. just. I’m curious.”

Cranky!

Damian forced a smile as Maria pulled out a fountain pen stuck in the wall.

The fountain pen she pulled out was crushed with the stone dust of the stone wall without a shape.

How much grip do you have to have to crush a fountain pen as easily as crushing pudding?

“Focus on me. Don’t look away.”

“yep.”

And while Damian complies with Maria turning his jaw into the mercenary management chart.

I couldn’t help but shed a cold sweat at the eyes exploding from the smaller body of one and a half heads.

Maria’s eyes looking up at him didn’t show that she was using any special skills or techniques.

It was because I could feel the intense heat as if it had a fire attribute.

“You managed to come back alive? There was no news about him, so I thought he was dead.”

“I’m sorry. Stop contacting me right away.”

buck buck!

As Maria flipped through the charts, Damian scratched the back of his head shyly.

“yes?”

“What did he do to make those picky sandals show his favor?”

“As far as I can tell...”

Damian shrugged with a shy smile as Maria placed her hand on the golden door.

To the right of the place where she brought it, another circular magic circle was shining.

When assigning a safe for the first time, the mercenary and the staff in charge raise their hands at the same time to confirm their identity. Safe’s unique security authentication technique.

“Open it. Why did I say that?”

Ugh!

So Damian put his palm toward the empty magic circle on the right as if possessed, as Maria looked up at him.

[Notice: Your mana resonates with Safe’s spell!]

[Notice: Success! From now on, you can use Safe’s safe function!]

And the door to safe room 1492 opened in front of him.

“Keugh?!”

Whoaaaaagh!

Damian covered his eyes at the golden smoke pouring in as soon as the door to room 1492 opened. Inside room 1492, where the space expansion magic was applied, a considerable amount of gold was piled up like a mountain.

Enough amount to make someone say ‘I want to swim in a pool full of money’.

Besides, the various jewels that can be seen intermittently above it could be said to be worth hundreds of thousands of gold at a glance.

“Is this... all mine?”

slap!

It could be said that such Damian suddenly slapped himself on the cheek and was dumbfounded, perhaps not so different from the feelings of a person who was struck by a thunderbolt of money overnight.

It is not an exaggeration to say that he is a self-proclaimed money ghost, because when he saw it through his eyes, the value of the gold accumulated in No. 1492 amounted to tens of millions of won.

“Basic salary of 200,000 gold according to the dispatch of a fortress defense battle mission. 1,000,000 gold as allowance for finding traitors. 2,000,000 gold for first artifact discovery. Defeat a Tier 1 monster and receive 2,000,000 gold as a battle reward. It’s a total of 7 million gold, including bonuses based on your contribution to the defense of the fortress. The special reward for the leader is separate.”

“Seven...hundred?”

“yes. take off the fee Thanks to you, I also benefited a little.”

As Damian turned his head, Maria jabbed his side with an elbow. It was the same amount to know why the inside of the safe was filled with golden waves.

7 million gold. So, even after deducting the fee collected from the guild, the amount amounted to 80 million won.

Of course, I expected that Damian would also participate in the defense of Aldeon Fortress and be able to get a good share.

I didn’t expect the net profit to come out this much, excluding non-game income like Otube.

It was like picking up a lottery ticket on the way.

In addition to the rags he is wearing, the night chaser set, which is incomparably clean, and various weapons that can be obtained from Aldeon Fortress are piled up.

– To. Damian.

It was an honor to be able to roam the battlefield together. soldier.

From. Giorno di Yekhachev.

“...what is this man doing?”

And Damian felt the past pass by like a kaleidoscope as he gazed at the letter placed on top of the weapons.

As Maria said, the case of the proud Night Crow Knights putting in a personal message was almost non-existent even in their previous lives.

“Oh and one more thing.”

“...?”

While Damian tilted his head, Maria pulled out a small case from her pocket.

Made of antique wood, it was a jewelry box that looked like it might contain a watch or a ring.

A box the size of a fist with a pattern symbolizing the adventurer’s guild stamped in the middle and decorated with brass on the lid opening.

“This is...”

Click!

Eventually, when Damian opened the box Maria held out, a metal badge resembling a hexagonal snow crystal was wrapped in silk.

“congratulation. Now it’s platinum.”

Platinum Tier.

It was the moment when his adventurer license was upgraded to the next level.
