by fnovelpia“Negro. Aang~”
A hearty daily life.
Daily routine of eating, training and sleeping.
If it weren’t for training, it would be a perfect daily routine for gaining weight.
In this way, a month and a week passed after the war with Rosetta.
In the meantime, Venus has changed quite a bit.
As they took over the slum, they became a large organization with over 60 members, and recruited some who had lost their place and entered the slum as new members.
Together, they took down several criminal organizations like a storm, earning praise from slum residents.
Peace achieved by changing the slum.
Always a hearty meal.
Gang members armed with self-defense weapons.
I had nothing to be afraid of because I freely spent the money I earned from Rosetta.
They even created a restaurant exclusively for Venus and hired a chef to provide generous meals to members of the organization every day.
Venus was at its peak of prosperity.
“Caw! The nigger eats so well. I love it so much~”
As you can see, the food you are eating now may be meat, but it is very precious meat.
You can refill these foods at no cost.
‘It’s nice to have good money.’
But how far should we stand by?
I pursed my lips and thought about this very peaceful atmosphere of Venus.
Venus became the number one organization in the slum.
No, there are almost no other organizations anymore.
Even in this situation, Venus is generously giving money to the organization members.
‘What a life without measures.’
The number of members in the organization is increasing.
Now there is no organization to steal money.
This is what happened when more money was released to alleviate the gloomy atmosphere after the Rosetta and war years, but it cannot continue to be like this.
There is a need to take measures.
No matter how much Rosetta’s capital is, if things continue this way, it will run out within half a year.
I’ve slowly gained strength, so now is the time.
For the sake of the future, you must stop your disciple.
“Now, black guy. Ah~~~”
Tup.
That’s why I spoke while holding a spoon filled with Ronika’s hearty rice and meat with one hand.
“Kang!!”
Listen!!
“Huh? What’s wrong?”
“Kuuung- Kwaang. Kaga River!~”
“If you don’t save your money, you’ll regret it?”
As solidarity skills strengthened after the war, our communication became easier.
Before, Ronika only understood half of what I said, but now she understands at least 80% of what I say.
Thanks to this, I was able to convey my meaning without any difficulty.
“Ugh… that’s right. I think I wrote it too haphazardly. I think I spent more money to escape from everyone’s gloomy appearance.”
“Sniff.”
“Hehe~ Still, I’m glad there’s a black guy. I need to properly sort out my money issues right now!”
After finishing the meal, Ronica went into a strategy consultation with Rowen in a room on the third floor.
The goal is simple.
Save money.
Establish new sources of funding.
Rowen also seemed to have felt this problem and actively expressed his opinion.
“First of all, we need to reduce living expenses. For example, too much money is spent on cooking. I will tell the kids about this directly.”
Rowen decided to manage the saving part.
But the real problem begins now. How should Venus make money in the future?
The two discussed that part.
“Rosetta suffered many people through various despicable methods such as smuggling, contracting, and private lending. But we won’t touch crime.”
“I also agree. To be honest, I was happy when the captain first said he was going to fight against criminal organizations. But it’s not that good. Because there is no good way to make money.
“Keu… If finances run out like this and Venus is disbanded, the slum will go back to how it was before… … .”
“How should I make money… .”
Everyone put their hands on their heads and worried.
There was no progress.
When a method came to mind, we discussed it again, but found a problem and went into worry mode again. This was repeated several times.
‘It’s boring.’
Unfortunately, I don’t know much about this.
When I was a mercenary, I made a living through commissions, when I was a warrior, I received support from the country, and when I was a lich, I didn’t need money.
So, I lay on the bed with my legs crossed and quietly overheard their conversation.
◎︎ Mana increases by 1.
Constant mana breathing is a bonus.
We focused on getting into the middle of the 4 stars.
I feel that vitality in my body.
“Korororong~”
I fell asleep comfortably.
“
“Wrong… … .”
“No matter what I do, it doesn’t seem right… … .”
After a good night’s sleep, I opened my eyes to find Ronika and Rowen sprawled out in the room with wide eyes.
I guess I couldn’t think of a proper way.
If you think about it, one of them is a kid who lived in the countryside cutting grass and the other is a guy who only knows dirty water and fighting in the slums.
I have no choice but to be ignorant of business.
‘There’s nothing I can do.’
I’m not very confident either… .
Better than these guys.
Kuuk~
Hold. Kuuk~
He walked up to the fallen Ronika and stabbed her in the side. It was simply to divert attention, but perhaps out of animal instinct, I pressed it down several times.
“Ehehe~ Joa~”
The guy said he liked it too.
Considering that I secretly stroked the red jelly on my palm once in a while, I think it felt quite nice.
My fault is that I can’t feel it.
“Sseu-eup… .”
I looked around and saw Rowen next to me, drooling as he looked at me.
Those eyes.
Do you want to touch it too? .
Why on earth do you like this?
“Add more~~”
Anyway, enough of the pranks.
In fact, there are several ways to make money that I thought of before going to sleep.
For example, he runs Venus like a military officer and teaches martial arts to others while receiving money.
Start a restaurant with Rosetta’s capital and fill Venus with manpower.
Using Venus’s power, they can receive orders and move like mercenaries.
Surprisingly, there are many things worth trying.
However, since both of them are ignorant in this field, it would not have been assumed.
So, I, who have a little bit of experience, will take the lead.
“Kang!!”
Listen!!
“Yes!”
“Ka-”
Knock knock!!
Just as I was about to speak calmly, there was a knock on the door.
Soon, one of the gang members opened the door and shouted, without listening to the answer.
“Captain!! It’s a big deal. The two people who were patrolling came back and they were in bad condition!!”
It felt bad that the conversation was interrupted, but I gave up and retreated.
I guess we should resolve the important things first.
Ronica immediately stood up and shouted.
“What!? who is this! Who messed with us?”
“That’s not it… I think I’m sick.”
“Huh?”
Ronica’s embarrassed appearance.
Of course, it was said that there would have been a conflict with another organization, but this was a somewhat unexpected point.
The reason why the organization member collapsed was due to an unexplained illness.
What should I do in cases like this?
Ronika and Rowen looked at each other in confusion and then said at the same time.
““Guide me!!””
The two headed to where the sick gang member was.
“Keyu~”
Why all the fuss over just one bottle?
I also followed along slowly, trying to figure out exactly what was going on.
At least it won’t be a big deal.
*
‘This… .’
I was a little embarrassed.
I canceled something I thought would be no big deal.
“Are you okay?… .”
“Off… I just feel heavy… … .”
I looked closely at the Venus organization member lying on the floor.
Fever.
Lethargy.
Skin that seems to be shedding.
Symptoms include a subtle but fishy smell coming from saliva and the nail roots turning black.
This is a disease I know well.
Pestora plague.
“Captain. The fever from earlier was no joke. If things continue like this, it might be dangerous.”
“Then you should call a doctor!!”
“That… A doctor working in the slum said he had a lot of appointments and that he would probably be available the day after tomorrow.”
“What?”
It has to be that way.
Because this disease is an infectious disease.
By now, many people suffering from pestora disease will be scrambling to find a doctor.
therefore… .
‘I’m going crazy.’
I never thought an epidemic would strike.
Everyone here could be in danger.
If you get it once, you may die after suffering from pain for over a month, and even if you survive it, you will have to live the rest of your life with your skin deteriorated as if it had been burned.
Above all.
‘It will be difficult to find a cure for this disease… .’
I remember it vividly.
In his previous life, when he was wandering around as a mercenary, a fellow member of his group contracted this disease, suffered from this disease, and died.
There was no cure at that time.
This is because someone who was clearing the tower returned to Edelin without knowing that he was sick, and because of that, the disease spread to many cities.
The biggest problem here is that there are no major herbs for Edelin, let alone the development of a cure.
Herbs could only be obtained from the tower.
Therefore, even after treatments were later developed, the prices of treatments released on the market were astronomical.
In other words, ordinary people had to endure it on their own.
The appearance becomes unsightly.
A body that is helplessly weakened.
A plague with no cure that has spread across the world.
The world was filled with an evil atmosphere, and people who held ancestral rites or worshiped evil spirits appeared.
Therefore, in order to obtain medicinal herbs, the country began to recruit large numbers of warriors to send on expeditions to the tower, and the number of warriors increased explosively.
At the time, I was a young mercenary, so I just watched… .
‘Now was the time.’
It’s no problem for me, but Venus is quite dangerous.
Those who manipulate mana are immune to some extent, but there are very few people here who know how to properly manipulate mana, except for Rowen and Ronica.
Moreover, Ronica is still only 1 star, so she is not that safe from the plague.
Even this guy could be dangerous.
I can’t help it… .
“Kang!! Kang!!!”
“Huh? Step back?”
I used my solidarity skills to tell Ronica the most important piece of information.
“Um, epidemic!? Is this an epidemic!!?”
“Captain? What do you mean?”
When Ronica suddenly shouted, the subordinates around her asked in confusion.
Unfortunately, this is not the time to be so leisurely. The more people are gathered together like this, the more exposed they will be to the risk of infection.
Fortunately, Rowen noticed the conversation between me and Ronika and acted quickly.
“Everyone step back! What the captain said is true. First, place the collapsed Henry in the corner of the room and isolate him. Otherwise, we too could be in danger.”
“What on earth are you talking about? Do you know what kind of disease this is?”
“That’s not true… .”
Rowen, who was explaining the situation, glanced at me for a moment and then continued.
“I heard it from a trustworthy person. First, we must deal with the infectious disease before it spreads.”
“If you say so… .”
As a quick-witted guy, he reacted quickly.
Rowen quickly controlled the gang members, isolated the sick in a corner room, and ordered them to wash their bodies thoroughly to avoid getting sick.
It would be great if this could be prevented… .
We need to assume the worst and prepare for it. If left like this, Venus will definitely fall into great danger.
‘But don’t worry.’
With this, my disciple won’t have to cry.
When I was a warrior in my previous life, I learned how to make a cure from a native person while climbing a tower.
I still remember it because my colleague died.
Moreover, I am an awakened person on the 98th floor.
There is not only the knowledge to create a cure, but also the public value to use the exchange.
Mass production shouldn’t be difficult either.
Hehe~
Disciple.
Know that you are blessed.
I will make the cure myself!
“Now!~ Black guy. Let’s wash ourselves clean too! I’ll make sure you never get sick!!”
“Kung!?… .”
“Oh! Where are you running!!!”
First, evacuate.
