Because it was an unexpected and refreshing decision, I couldn’t help but worry that something might go wrong.

“Do you mind if I do that?”

“Are you really doubting my words?”

Commander Thalia frowned and said.

“Rather than doubt, I was just wondering if you could push me like that.”

“I’m not pushing you. In order for what I said to be true, there must be no quality issues with the items you bring. The standards for defective products are probably much stricter than you thought. Until now, not many companies have passed the quality inspection.”

So, in order for his words to be kept, he meant that he had to prove his abilities first on my part.

I don’t think there’s any problem with giving that much benefit as long as the item is certain.

of course.

‘To me, that’s what it means.’

Are there quality problems with items purchased from a store window?

I can only see it as someone setting a trap to screw me.

Aren’t the things I own made by ‘people’?

Even if it was made by a machine, there would be defective products, but if a product was made by a shop window, even such defective products would not come out.

“From the beginning, I was confident in the quality of the products I delivered. So, the commander’s words are nothing short of a confirmation to me.”

Commander Thalia smiled slightly at my confident appearance.

“I like your cool attitude. A man should have that level of confidence. “I’m also looking forward to seeing the results.”

Commander Thalia smiled brightly and left.

I stayed behind and watched the soldiers check the quantity, and only after receiving the quantity confirmation was I able to return to the general store.

Because the quantity was large, it took longer than expected.

The quality verification results are said to take a week, so we’ll have to wait and see.

When I finished the delivery and arrived at the general store.

Surprisingly, something better was waiting for me.

“flaw.”

Erintina kept her word faster than expected.

After receiving the item from the person she sent it to, I quickly checked what was inside.

“How much is this?”

2 Kraken eyes, 5 Kraken teeth.

Along with the monster by-products, Erintina’s letter also came, and the letter stated that it was more expensive than expected, so only this much was sent.

He also said that he doesn’t know what to do with this Kraken byproduct, but hopes that it will produce good results.

the problem is.

“It’s a bit of a trick.”

In the last line, it was written that if he failed to get what he wanted, he would get him something good for his stamina.

He put the letter in a drawer and sold all the by-products to the store.

“It’s cheap.”

I thought Kraken teeth were expensive, but surprisingly, each tooth costs 10 million won.

However, it is not yet disappointing.

This is because there are things that are expensive enough to hit the jackpot.

None other than the Kraken’s Eye.

There are two of these.

“1.3 billion!”

Each piece was sold for 650 million won, and the two together were sold for a total price of 1.3 billion won.

“The price is crazy?”

Even a sucker was sold at a very high price, and an additional 1.35 billion won was brought in, so it was no different from a huge profit.

Isn’t it absurd that Kraken’s by-products are more expensive than special parts?

Does this mean it’s a different level?

by the way.

“Isn’t this a level where you can be considered rich?”

His assets are close to 2 billion.

In reality, you would be considered rich if you had 10 billion, not 2 billion, but here, the amount charged was about 2 billion, which was a huge amount.

‘What should I do with this?’

Since ancient times, you have to spend money to know the taste.

You can get more money by spinning items, or you can spin the gacha to get an SSR character.

‘You can do whatever you want.’

I am thrilled that it is an amount that I can afford with a relaxed mind, no matter what is offered as a special product.

How many years have you risked your life killing monsters just to buy a package?

‘Wasn’t it better to just go to the academy with seed money and all? No, even if I came early in the first place, it was useless if the monster wave didn’t explode. ‘I was able to sell things because I had a merchant’s license.’

Because I had saved up money while working as a mercenary for 14 years, I was able to sell my own equipment and buy a merchant license to sell consumables.

Although I was overwhelmed by the past 14 years, I worked hard to convince myself.

‘Don’t feel uncomfortable thinking about the past, let’s enjoy the present.’

If we extract items and deliver them to the military with the money close to 2 billion earned now, we will receive a huge amount of money.

He looked up at the sky and raised his arms.

It was clear that a strong light had finally begun to shine in my life.

＊ ＊ ＊

What is the first thing a person who suddenly earns a lot of money, to the point of being called a wealthy person, does?

It may be sudden, but since you have suddenly become rich, satisfying your suppressed desires will be your top priority.

“Today’s goal is… .”

In my case, satisfying my previously suppressed ‘desire to consume’ was the top priority.

My usual spending habit was to only buy things I really needed.

‘If possible, I tried to live by using items picked up from the store.’

For example, you can have a meal using something like a lunch box from a lottery drawing.

The reason I did that was because I felt unfair.

‘I can use these consumables, but I can’t use the proper equipment that would really help me. Wouldn’t it be unfair?’

I clearly know what effects unique equipment can have if it uses its original abilities.

On the days when I went to catch a monster and came back after a hard time, Hyeonta would come back even stronger.

So, I think I acted more like a gangster because I wanted to somehow get rid of the store.

‘Because I lived like that, at some point the mercenaries started calling me ‘the money ghost.”

He must have made a lot of money by hunting monsters, but it must have seemed strange because he kept collecting without being extravagant.

But just because it’s me doesn’t mean I have nothing to say.

‘Isn’t it a bit unfair to treat someone who earns money and indulges in gambling as normal?’

Most mercenaries enjoy drinking, women, and gambling.

Since I didn’t do that, they called me a poisonous bastard and nicknamed me a ghost.

Anyway, now I wanted to live a life where I could enjoy luxury, rather than listening to the ghost of money like I did back then.

‘Of course, even though I’m retired, I still have a lot of work to do.’

Even though I work, I want to maintain a work-life balance.

“You have to reincarnate Flex.”

A glimpse into the world of nobility.

The place to visit today is Noble Street, which I went to with Erintina.

He hurriedly closed the general store before the intruder arrived and moved a little early.

“No matter where you go, the level is above the basics.”

There was no need to worry about where to go.

As soon as you take a step, you will find all kinds of luxury goods stores lined up.

Among the many stores, the first one I chose was a clothing store.

“Oh my, you’re so tall!”

“How much is it for everything?”

When I went to the auction house with Erintina, I had my hair done and changed into decent clothes, so I looked quite acceptable.

Even when I thought about it myself, I didn’t think I would ever be called ugly.

Starting with the clothing store, I bought some more luxury items.

“please.”

A pretty cool watch to hang in a grocery store.

“Hmm, that’s good. Please wrap it up.”

Lightweight shoes made from monster leather and luxurious cleaning tools.

“Are these delivered?”

“Of course. It can be delivered. I will bring it to you today.”

Even things like carpets and curtains.

I kept repeating what someone said to change everything except my family, but my balance was much stronger than I thought.

Even though the payment has not yet arrived from the military.

After having so much fun shopping, I came back and decorated the general store even more satisfactorily.

“Hello, Suhan.”

I had to have an unexpected meeting with someone from the duke family.

“What is it?”

“The Duke invited Suhan.”

invite?

me?

why?

I tilted my head at the questions that came to mind.

⁂ ⁂ ⁂

“… … .”

“… … .”

A woman sitting next to the duke.

She looks like Ariando, but I don’t think she’s her mother, so I guess she’s her older sister.

I heard that the Duke’s family had invited me, so I couldn’t ignore it.

He had signed a business partnership contract with the beads I provided, and he was planning to use his power to his advantage in the future, so it was a friendship that needed to be managed.

However, I thought I would meet the duke, but I did not know that I would face the daughter before the duke.

“hello. Duke, and… .”

“Hmm. This is my second daughter, Aria. aria? “I think it would be a good idea to go out because we have something to talk about among adults.”

The Duke cleared his throat and said, as if he didn’t like the idea of introducing his second daughter to me.

But it seems that there was no such thing as a daughter that the Duke of Fool could defeat.

“no, I do not want.”

“aria!”

“I have something to say to this person.”

“What do you have to say to that Chi!”

I remember treating him like a business partner, but I don’t know when he came down to me again.

Maybe that’s what happened when I followed Ariando and his friends on their trip this time?

Isn’t it the duke’s hobby to misunderstand the relationship between Ariando and me in a strange way?

“You and Ariando are pretty close, right?”

“It just so happened that it happened that way.”

Aria’s voice is particularly harsh and crooked.

I was sure that he wasn’t talking to me just to sound good.

“They kept selling strange things to the kid. Doesn’t your conscience prick you?”

Ah, I wondered what was the reason.

“He keeps taking money that he says he should give to you. So when I asked what on earth he was taking to buy it, he couldn’t even give me a proper answer.”

“Did Ariando say anything?”

When I think about the things Ariando gave me, I can understand Aria’s crooked attitude.

What would you think if you heard that a kid who didn’t do that was asking you to give him money and that the reason was so that he could keep giving it to you?

It was natural for my family to suspect that I was an asshole.

“They said it was a secret. “Even if I die, they won’t explain it to me.”

It’s a pity, but this isn’t my fault.

What do you mean to say that his weapon doesn’t make it to the top 12?

“If he had taken the money and spent it on luxuries, I wouldn’t have been so worried. “What on earth did I tell you that makes me keep giving you money?”

I thought I would have at least roughly explained why I was spending money from home…

I don’t know whether I should praise him for keeping his promise, or say he was inflexible.

‘I like keeping secrets better.’

As expected, the SSR characters do not disappoint my expectations.

elasticity?

It’s true that it’s regrettable that I created this situation that didn’t need to be created, but it was much better than having my abilities spread indiscriminately here and there.
