Chapter 97

Chiii—

The smoke of meat wafted through the room, but no one cared. There were loads of delicious beef so the smell could be endured.

“Woah, so delicious. The meat is really good, auntie.”

“Eat a lot, Kijeong. There are more meat. Why did you buy so much?”

“Hehe, it’s been a while since I’ve come here, how could I come empty-handed? But I didn’t know you’d buy so much.”

“Thanks to you, I could eat well. My son, eat. Eat this.”

“I... I’m full. It seems we have eaten more than two pounds of beef now.”

To fill one’s stomach with only Korean beef, what kind of luxury was this?

Leeha leaned on his wheelchair and pounded his stomach.

“But how were you able to make so much money? You too, Kijeong?” “Ah...It’s not as much as Leeha-hyung-nim but I earn money from time to time. Mom would have beaten me to death if I did not give her any money.”

“Mija’s personality is still the same?. No wonder Kijeong doesn’t look sad, even though she always says that she’s worried that you were not studying...... “Haha, did mom tell you that auntie? She’s saying all sorts of things”

Leeha laughed as he listened to Kijeong and his mother’s conversation.

He died once, but he was a Korean semi-rank. At level 197, there was no way he won’t be able to earn more than Leeha.

Even if high-end equipment items were only available from boss-level monsters, he should still be able to make quite a bit of money. Kijeong was being humble in front of Leeha.

After tidying up, Leeha called Kijeong.

“Kijeong.”

“Ah...... I can’t eat anymore. I feel like I would vomit if I eat even one more piece.”

“No, it’s not about eating. Haha, by any chance, do know anything about the Intelligence Guild?”

The question he had after looking into the lunchbox quest.

There was hardly any information about the Intelligence Guild in the internet community.

He didn’t invite Kijeong just for that, but since he had already met the talented tanker, it would be a pity to just let him go.

“Intelligence Guild? Is it time for hyung to use it already?”

“No, it’s not something I want to use yet... I was just curious. What is it?”

“Amazing. It costs some money.” Kijeong patted his stomach and sat down.

“Why do old games have guidebooks? CD game.”

“...”

“You can think of it like that.”

“What?”

What did he mean? Is it a guidebook?

“It varies slightly depending on the level of intimacy with the Intelligence Guild or something like that...... You can think of it as being able to get almost all of the information you want.”

“Almost all information? They know almost all of the information that you want?”

“Isn’t it in the game anyway? Then the Middle Earth NPCs will of course know. That’s a good thing, you’re familiar with programs like that.”

“Wow...... that means. Doesn’t that mean that the Intelligence Guild is like an administrator mode? Or a cheat key?”

Leeha could not hide his reaction to how absurd it was.

“That’s why it is run by NPCs. That’s how Middle Earth sucks money. They give you small information, and they get a lot of money.”

“Ah, right. They can’t tell anything for free.”

Kijeong sighed and looked at Leeha’s expression.

There has been a time like this. He suddenly exuded a heavy atmosphere, even though they were just playful a moment ago.

That was the reason why Kijeong liked Leeha.

“I know what you’re thinking Kijeong. Are you worried about my mother?”

“Yes....... Anyhow...... You also have auntie......

If you sell the lunchbox, you are guaranteed to get 100 million won. Selling it alone would have been enough to cover a few year’s worth of living expenses. It’s not like Leeha didn’t think about it either.

“I think I can get more than that.”

“Worth more?”

Leeha explained to Kijeong.

He probed Madame Chu to find out what the rewards of the lunchbox quest were. How he went into her house and talked about this and that.

And the fact the ‘Holy Grill’ branch in the capital will be the cover office of the ‘Intelligence Guild’. Kijeong’s jaw dropped.

“Really?”

“It is highly likely. Anyway, I met her in person. What do you think Middle Earth master?

Isn’t there a possibility that this game could do that?”

“Whoah...... whoah......”

Kijeong organized his thoughts for a long time.

It was a dizzying fact for Leeha as well, it was understandable for Kijeong to have such a reaction. Middle Earth Master knew the value of information better.

“What?”

“Yeah, I think it is possible. I wish I heard your conversation with her personally, but if that was what hyung felt, then it should be right. Wow, but Intelligence Guild in the capital... What did the reward say?”

“That...... Come to think of it, the reward written on the quest window was the invitation to its opening ceremony.”

“Then that’s a trap.”

Kijeong quickly answered.

“Huh?”

“That’s a trap. The use of the Intelligence Guild in the capital! If that was what was written, then everyone would have tried to complete it. Right, I was actually suspicious when I first heard it from hyung. It is such a great item...... Why would they make it tradeable when it is clearly a quest item? Why would they make it possible to eat? It is strange if you think about it.”

Kijeong and Leeha’s eyes met.

They had the same thought.

“In other words, it was a quest that was extremely difficult.”

“The invitation to the opening ceremony is just a trap, and it would shake the hearts of naive players.

It means that it was a much more difficult quest than simply fighting a strong enemy. In the end, it also meant that there was a high probability that it would not end with just an invitation to the opening ceremony.

“It could be said that it had something to do with the Intelligence Guild. Then you have to complete it, right?”

“Yes. That is what I thought.”

The money made from selling the Kobold Eonwoldo was “nothing” compared to that. What if he pioneered a way to continuously obtain similar items through the Intelligence Guild?

It wasn’t just that. No one else knew the existence of the new store in the capital and the Intelligence Guild.

‘My choices will affect Middle Earth.’

And it was for his own advantage It was always important to be one step ahead of others.

Kijeong only went home after they talked until late at night, and after that Leeha connected to Middle Earth.
