The Returner Wants Complete Victory

32 – 032. Destiny

We exchanged the large backpacks our group was carrying and the small bags Kyoko and her group were carrying.

Since the number of people is not right, Noah will have to carry his military gear as is, but this is unavoidable.

And Noah actually didn’t seem to have any thoughts.

Kyoko and her group carried their backpacks without saying a word, as if they were not empty when they said, ‘If the team leader criticizes me, I will criticize him.’

And as expected, their stats were higher than those of our kids, so even though they were marching quite quickly, they kept up without falling behind.

Considering that I had been chased by chimeras for a long time before, I thought that the stats themselves could be quite high, regardless of the actual combat power.

In particular, this woman named Kyoko spoke softly next to me as if she wasn’t tired.

“But are you really a wizard? This is my first time seeing that wizard in real life! Especially from earlier, boom! I’ve never heard of such a thing. When did you come here? Oh, are you by any chance the person in the rumor? Are you from Emur? “I heard you don’t even take a step out of Uncle Rick’s inn?”

My ears feel like they’re bleeding.

“I ran out of money.”

“omg… ! Then, would you like to do something with us? We were also in trouble because the number of team members had decreased! Tomorrow, I’m going to subdue the Chimera, a senior commander, and the distribution will be based on the number of people, and I’ll give the wizard a little more from my share. how is it?”

“No, we had something we originally wanted to do.”

“is it so? There’s probably no other way to make money around here these days… . Oh, by the way, I see you brought an expedition backpack with you? Is that really it? Dungeon? There are really bad rumors out there. Even if you’re a wizard, wouldn’t it be better not to go? They say all the kids who went there were under some kind of strange curse and had negative debuffs on their stats! “I heard there were even people who died after suffering negative health!”

“are you okay.”

“Oh, as expected? Does the wizard seem to know something? Were the rumors true that it was dark magic and not a curse? So the wizard is from the Black Magic Tower? No, no. I heard you definitely used light magic? Come to think of it, wasn’t that fire magic you used earlier? How—.”

It really feels like my ears are bleeding.

I’m answering with all the will to keep my mouth shut, but how can I continue the conversation like this?

At this level, when you open the status window, wouldn’t there be something written in the characteristics?

I needed the silence magic that Seongho Kim used during the tutorial.

I should learn something when I get the chance.

I think it was either the wind element or the Tower of Knowledge magic, but I was weak to those types of attacks.

Direct attack series that can be used in battle, as well as mental magic destruction and barrier destruction, including hallucinations.

Because I studied mainly in this area.

Because of that, there were times when there were arguments that were not arguments.

Raviola Ensis, one of the great wizards, criticized me, saying, ‘You are not a wizard, you are just a warrior who shoots fireballs from your hands.’

That’s true. So I didn’t really refute it.

But wasn’t the person who said those words actually the leader of a magic corps whose purpose was combat?

When I pointed that out, I was originally nominated to be the next owner of the Tower of Knowledge, but I had no choice due to the trend of the times… I ran wild all the way saying things like this.

“We’re almost there! Hey, it’s just over that hill!”

Kyoko said in a lively voice.

You have really good physical strength. You’ve been talking non-stop for dozens of minutes, but do you still have energy left?

“Then let’s rest here for a while. “It’s just me and Kyoko going over there.”

At my words, the group unpacked their bags and sat down.

Bokyung’s expression darkened slightly.

He seemed to know that he was considerate of me.

But what should I do? I don’t know what the body will look like.

When we climbed the hill, we found two human corpses and six corpses of armored monkeys beyond it.

The damage to the body was not as severe as expected.

Just slightly crushed by an iron fist?

It seems like the battle took place here first, and then they decided to flee because they thought it wouldn’t work.

Looking at the traces, it seemed like these two were intentionally left behind as bait.

Earlier, Kyoko also said something like this, saying that there will be no shortage of all the merit points collected.

I thought I would return to Earth, but it turned out to be a pity.

If this chimera was under the control of an ancient evil god, it would have gone to Decalun, otherwise it would have become the material for a new soul stone in Irene’s hands.

It’s difficult to even pray for peace.

After a brief moment of silence, I took out my cell phone.

When I pressed the button on the corpse, the analysis was completed in an instant.

▶ Emotions

[Great Sword/F-]

It’s a great sword. All of its teeth are missing, making it more similar to a blunt weapon than a sword.

[Leather Armor/-]

It is leather armor. The damage is so severe that it seems difficult to expect much protection even if worn.

[Chain Armor/-]

It’s chain armor. The damage is so severe that it seems difficult to expect much protection even if worn.

[Leather Boots/F-]

These are slightly worn leather boots.

It’s a dog can?

Looking at this, I thought I could understand why corpse rooting is not active at this point.

In the early days of Proa, when a body was found, it was basic manners to hand it over to the affiliated mercenary group or team.

Then, in terms of mid-term and yearly experience, around the time I entered my 2nd or 3rd year, it started to be taken for granted that the person who discovered it would have the item.

Right now, corpses are wrapped in B-grade or higher equipment, and S-grade equipment is found frequently. Isn’t it a bit unfair to hand it over without compensation?

However, it is understandable that, as is the case now, there was a culture of returning equipment to colleagues if all equipment was classified as F or even out of grade.

It’s not even an Emur, it’s a Kirnyu, so there’s no way it has good equipment.

“Umm… .”

What do we do.

If I say I don’t need it now, wouldn’t I be too gullible?

First, I decided to appraise my friend who was lying next to me.

▶ Emotions

[long sword/-]

It’s not a long sword.

[Steel Gaiters/F-]

These are slightly dented steel gaiters.

[leather boots/-]

These are torn leather boots. I think I can use it if I repair it.

And this one didn’t seem like anything special, so I gave up my expectations and scrolled down, and found an item that looked good.

okay. No matter how bad they are, this is a team that has at least one shot at subjugating a high-level Chimera commander.

It didn’t make sense for the store to only have grade F ready-made products.

In fact, artifacts of that level can be obtained from stores, but the price difference is so great that they cannot be compared to F-class equipment that has no stat bonus.

I’m guessing this would start with at least 15 gold coins?

“Hey… .”

As I removed the bandage from her wrist, Kyoko let out a small crying sound.

Originally, they would have tried to collect it and use it themselves.

“Are you going to write well?”

“Yes… .”

However, as if he would keep his promise, he only whined and did not ask for it back.

Before I could change my mind, I quickly put the armband on my wrist.

[Great Forest Sentinel’s Wristguard/D]

Agility+2.

Adae with the blessings of the wind spirit.

It makes your body a little more agile.

Finally, something appeared in the equipment window.

I was able to confirm that my agility and stamina had increased significantly by completing the achievement of exploring a new area with the Commander Chimera I had just caught.

Afterwards, I looked through the remaining items, but couldn’t find anything particularly useful.

“I think this will be enough. “Let’s just retrieve the Armor Monkey Magic Stone and go back over there, right?”

“… Yes… .”

He struck the body of the armored monkey with a spear and extracted the magic stone from its heart.

Although it belongs to the lowest level of chimera in classification, it is still quite strong among them, so its magic stone value is high.

The higher the Chimera’s abilities, the higher the output of the magic stone embedded in it.

For armored monkeys, you’ll probably get close to one gold coin per animal.

I handed the 6 extracted magic stones to Kyoko.

“sleep.”

“yes?”

“They caught this.”

I’m not the kind of person who gives without reason, but I’m also not the type of person who never has a reason.

I also have my own standards.

I don’t know how it will appear in the eyes of others.

“… Huh! thank you!”

Kyoko bowed her head and took the magic stone.

“What am I thankful for? “We ate all the magic stones that came out earlier.”

“That’s natural! Because you helped us… !”

okay? We took all of the 14 armored monkeys and Hondemon that we caught in the battle earlier, as well as the commander’s magic stone.

Looking at his expression, it seemed like he really thought so.

He’s a friend with a clear mind.

It’s not easy to maintain that right attitude while living in this neighborhood.

I was thinking about asking if he would be interested in joining our team, but I soon realized it was too early, so I stopped.

Even if you come in right away, you can’t go to the dungeon together because you don’t have any supplies, and from the opponent’s perspective, they will want to participate first in tomorrow’s battle to subdue the senior commander Chimera.

But I don’t necessarily want to wait.

Above all, Kyoko aside, whether the remaining two people could be trusted was a completely different matter.

“Then let’s move on. “We have to start again.”

“four!”

I heard Kyoko following behind me, muttering, ‘This will last me a week.’

The three of us spend 1 week with 6 gold coins… .

I guess I’ll be living a life that’s almost like being homeless.

That’s a slightly better standard of living than the chicks who just finished the tutorial.

They only give you two gold coins at first, so you can buy weapons and survive for about a week with the remaining money.

I thought about the hardships I suffered during the first round and felt like my eyes would turn slightly red.

Of course, I had no intention of providing any help.

“If I don’t die tomorrow, I’ll see you later.”

“yes! “Wizards, be careful of curses too!”

After saying good-bye to each other and saying good-bye to each other, we walked for about 4 more hours.

8 p.m.

The sun had completely set before we knew it, so we decided to take a seat on the highest hill nearby.

Since it is a wilderness area where you cannot get help from geographical features anyway, it is always best to find a place on high ground.

After a quick meal of energy bars, we started setting up the tent.

And I immediately encountered an unexpected situation.

“hey. Are you sure you don’t know how to do this too?”

Noah averted his gaze at my ridiculous tone and continued pretending to drive a stake.

I thought Bo-kyung and Eun-ha would naturally not know, so I planned to tell them slowly… I didn’t even know he would be like this.

Is it really that you play alone all the time and don’t even know how to do these basic things?

The expression ‘wasted time’ is used in times like this, right?

And that’s not how you f*ck, you bastard.

“You have to pull it out and f*ck it, dude. “If the wind blows while you sleep, it will all collapse.”

“… .”

“Aren’t you planning on pitching a tent and sleeping? ah. Are you going to sleep covered? Then it would be convenient. Are you smart?”

“… stop.”

“okay.”

Still, I learned quickly, so I was able to finish everything before 9 o’clock.
