18 episodes of Rafdonia (2)
Returning to the dormitory, I studied Erwen’s body, which seemed a little drunk.
Of course, the oath I made with my sister was never broken.
I wonder what the meaning of such an oath would be to me as a warrior in the first place.
“Erwen, open up a little more.”
“Hey, but even if you say that… … .”
Currently, I am forcibly stretching Erwen.
“Ah! shoulder! I think my shoulders are going to fall off!”
“Hmm.”
“Won, it wasn’t even broken like this in the first place! It’s real!”
“Are you sure?”
“Yes Yes! Betting on the name of the clan!!”
As soon as his arms are relaxed, Erwen immediately lies down on the bed.
Saying ‘flexibility + 4’ doesn’t mean that it’s too obvious.
Well, is that the same in games?
“Again, are you left?”
“not. Rest for now.”
[Dungeon and Stone] was an unkind game.
Just looking at the stats.
body, mind, and power.
There were three main stats, but if you click the [+] button next to it, thousands of detailed stats came out.
For example, if the physical strength, which is a sub-stat of the body, increases, the weight that can be carried, physical attack power, etc. are corrected.
flexibility?
Even slightly, the evasion rate and critical strike rate increased.
Time?
The range of ranged weapons and the visible range of the character have been increased.
The sense of smell became a coefficient of the ability if there was a related ability, and the accuracy rate was literally the accuracy rate.
Therefore, even if the physical figure is the same 50, the things that the character can do are completely different depending on the details.
“… … .”
Note that this was all found out on my own.
It was information that neither the game production company nor any foreign users told me, so I had to repeat numerous experiments and create statistical data.
One reason I want to clear this game.
Shiba, back then, I never dreamed that that passion would become so poisonous and come back.
‘Huh, I’m suddenly pissed off again.’
Coming back, I was a ninth year Jinseong deceased.
However, there were some stats that did not find out what effect it had.
A typical example is ‘obsession +7’ written on the essence spit by the goblin archer.
Everything was a mystery, except that the obsession stat was a sub-item of the mental figure.
“Erwen.”
“I’m getting anxious after you sigh, can’t you just stop talking?”
“Has anything changed since you came out of the labyrinth? Something keeps popping up in my mind. It’s hard to bear or something like that.”
“… that, ok? There seems to be, isn’t it?”
“what? Tell me.”
“snack… … ? Yes, sweets. Looking back, as soon as it came out, I bought a lot and ate it… … .”
“Have you always hated sweet food?”
“No, did you like it? Still, I think it’s the first time I’ve eaten this much in a day.”
“Right.”
Perhaps an attachment means a desire to grow stronger.
So, there must have been no special function in the game.
Okay, my head gets complicated.
This is because it will become a reality patch and additional functions may be added to other detailed stats.
It’s the same in terms of flexibility.
As in the game, the more natural the body movement, the easier it is to dodge. If the circumstances are right, it will be possible to successfully perform an action that would otherwise not have been possible and inflict fatal wounds.
But is that all?
Greater flexibility will make it easier to enter tight spaces and absorb shock better than a stiff body on landing.
That was not known in the game.
So, in the future, I will have to re-examine the nurturing method by synthesizing those things.
“Uncle, I’m sleepy now… … .”
Oh, did I let you rest too much?
His eyes are already half closed.
I was trying to check if there was anything difficult about using an active skill, how long it would take to use it again, and things like that… … .
“I get it. Goto sleep.”
“yes… … .”
I blew the wind and put out the fire.
And lay down next to Erwen.
Erwen didn’t find it strange either, and neither did I.
In the labyrinth, he showed me all the things I couldn’t see, but it was also funny to come face to face with it now.
Drooling!
I slept like that, but my eyes are closed again.
I remembered my sister’s words not to sleep with me late, but… … .
Well, you don’t have to worry about it.
After all, that’s not what he meant.

[07:35]
I woke up quite early in the morning.
I barely slept for two days, so saying it’s too early might be a bit silly.
“Uncle, get some water… … .”
Erwen had just woken up, so we had a quick meal on the first floor after just washing our face.
Then we headed to Erwen’s house.
Because the city is so big, it took more than an hour just to get there on foot.
“I’m glad it’s still in the same area!”
it is sympathetic
If it had been on the other side, I would have had to go for a long time even in a carriage.
As a fortress town in Malman, Lafdonia had an absurdly large area.
“You must be quiet here. You know? Because the only one who knows about working with you is still my sister.”
“I will.”
As I was waiting in an alley three blocks away from the dormitory, Erwen walked over with two backpacks struggling.
Just before the end of the 7th day, the leader and the backpack of the crossbow who attacked us. The weapons are sticking out without being locked.
“Listen.”
“Oh, thank you!”
Also, he doesn’t know what the specs are.
I guess it wasn’t like that at first.
“Weapons here, armor here, tools and consumables separately.”
“yes!”
When we returned to the dormitory, we spent time checking and organizing the items in our backpacks.
It took about an hour, but maybe it’s the loot? It was quite enjoyable.
Novel from https://noblemtl.com
Me and Erwen sat next to each other on the bed, looking around the neatly arranged items on the floor.
“Are you going to sell them all?”
“Except what is necessary.”
“Then, can I keep the leather clothes and belt that you gave me?”
“Does not matter. If I take it out of the share.”
“Then please do it!”
After classifying what to sell and what not to sell, we went back to the city.
Except for overlapping tools such as watches and compasses, they decided to share expedition items and consumables such as potions, but in fact they decided to sell almost all of their equipment.
It’s better to exchange money and buy something else than to use something that doesn’t fit.
It’s not like I can’t afford that now.
“Here it is!”
The place I arrived at was a weapon shop that Tersia had informed me of.
Items for sale include a Japanese sword, two long swords, a crossbow, a two-handed hammer, two daggers, and three portable knives.
“A total of 350,000 stones.”
I was more worried because it was an acquaintance’s introduction, but I just sold it out because it gave me the best price than any other store I stopped by for comparison.
“Wow… … .”
As soon as she left the store, she spit out the admiration that Erwen had been holding back.
I too had a similar feeling.
“Uncle, isn’t this a dream?”
Excluding the stolen Manastones, the money earned through pure hunting for 7 days would be only around 100,000 stones.
But what about 350,000 stones?
Besides, the armor was not even sold yet.
… Now I understand why explorer cubs turn their eyes when they see people.
Equipment is money. That too a lot.
“Uncle, how much is my share then?”
A longing for money shines in Erwen’s eyes.
“Wait, I still have a long way to go.
The next destination was the armor shop located 10 minutes away.
“Here are 180,000 stones.”
The number of items was more on the side of the armor, but the total value was less than the weapon.
It is said that the purchase price is low because it is difficult to sell used armor, which was a reason enough to convince me.
Isn’t it just that we decided to sell everything because of the size problem?
“I will sell it for that price.”
“You have a cool personality like a barbarian. Please come again the next time you encounter something like this. Even then, it will be well worth it.”
“I will.”
Soon after, I stopped by a general store and finished selling various items that were judged unnecessary, and I got a huge sum of 1.45 million stones.
Well, it’s not all my money.
“Take it here, 45,000 stones.”
“uh? Isn’t that a little too much?”
With leather clothes and belts, 20,000 stones were subtracted, and exactly 7,000 stones were added.
It’s not given because it’s pretty, it’s the ratio of the mana stones owned by the samurai and the samurai divided by 9:1.
“I don’t know exactly how much, so I took the other two you gave me as a guide.”
“Oh, I see! thank you!”
Anyway, after removing everything, I checked the total assets and it was 1.4 million stones.
It was a little, no, a lot weird.
I’ve never had this much money in the first round in a game… … .
good start
“Then let me break up with you.”
“yes?”
Why is your face surprised?
We’ve finished counting the money, let’s go our separate ways.
I have a lot of work to do in the future because my plans have gone awry because of you.
“Well, we can go to the central square together.”
“yes… … .”
Suddenly, Erwen’s words disappeared.
As I walked along the road, I arrived at the central square, which is a fork in the road.
“uh? Are there suddenly a lot of people?”
Unlike the last time I passed by, the crowd was swarming.
Half of them were soldiers, and the other half were criminals tied to the shackles.
No, it’s a little too much to call them sinners, don’t they?
“Uh, uh! Ouch! Whoa!”
They are not violent criminals such as murder, rape, or arson.
The crime of those who tremble in fear with a gag in their mouth is ‘non-payment of taxes’.
In other words, because there was no money.
That young woman in her twenties, a man of childbearing age, an old man with wrinkled hands who had lived his whole life harder than anyone else, was sentenced to death.
“I will start the execution!”
When the collector shouted, the soldiers shoved the man’s head under the guillotine.
and… … .
Sigh-!
The man’s head, which was cut off with a squeaky sound, goes into the wooden barrel in front of him.
Some crowds nearby soaked the blood dripping on the bread they had brought and ate in a hurry.
“Hib!”
Erwen started hiccups at the bloodshed that suddenly unfolded in front of her eyes.
“Damn, what is it! those people? Why do you dip bread in human blood?”
“There is a superstition that drinking the blood of a person executed by a collector will bring you wealth.”
Erwen frowned as if he did not understand at all. To him, that seemed more shocking than having a person’s head cut off.
“Erwen, how much is the first year’s tax?”
“It’s 700,000 stones based on different races.”
“Right.”
It was 600,000 stones in the game.
There are some errors, but they are roughly consistent.
“Still, you don’t have to worry. Because he earned that much.”
huh? Yes it is, but… … .
It’s not something a guy with a big sister would say.
Besides, I have no intention of saving this money for next year’s taxes in the first place.
For a simple reason.
“Erwen, how much is the tax from the second year?”
“800,000 stones. And there is a fee when exchanging money.”
Taxes continue to rise until a certain number of years are accumulated.
So now is the time to invest in yourself.
The first year, when fees are waived and taxes are relatively low, is the time for rapid growth.
“Ah! Sah, please save me!”
“Gag it properly again!”
“next month! I can pay the money next month— uh, uh! Oops!”
Anyway, I’m glad
Are humans the most reliant on visual information?
Sigh-!
Seeing it with my own two eyes is a real feeling.
Return to the original world.
Rather than such unrealistic goals, it is necessary to set clear intermediate goals and strive for them.
For example, assuming my life span is 90 years old.
When I said that I had to spend the rest of my life here because I couldn’t find a way back home.
‘How much do you need?’
Well, I guess I’ll have to do some math.
In a house with a kitchen, you can receive treatment when you are sick, and if you want to be able to spend leisurely time with three puppies after quitting work from the age of 50… … .
“6th floor.”
At least on the 6th floor, a calculation comes out that you have to save and save before you retire.
yes, so—.
“yes? What did you just say?”
“It is nothing.”
Let’s go at least to the 6th floor.
Whether it’s possible to go home or not.
That would be something to think about later.
