Chapter Index

    Hit my hand that has lost its way! The person who caught him seemed determined to do so.

    The moment has come when I too must make a decision.

    Did he clearly express his refusal by shaking off her hand?

    If not… about developing this relationship by not letting go of Sein’s hand, which he warmly approached, and holding on to it.

    Throughout my past life and present life…

    Even I was surprised that he had such a deep interest in women. That’s why I didn’t hate this special feeling.

    Maybe it’s a simple answer.

    Come on…

    That’s why I didn’t let go of Sein’s hand.

    In response to her courageous action of coming to me… I also join Sein’s hand and take one step closer to her feelings for me.

    Because I didn’t want to hide these feelings anymore.

    'Sain’s hands.. rough but soft.'

    I can clearly feel Sein’s calluses rubbing harder through the [black silk gloves].

    The fruit of effort so beautiful that you don’t want to compare it to anyone else.

    Nevertheless, I liked this kind of person who didn’t show it and treated me like a normal person.

    Come on…

    Sein-nim must have been quite nervous about my reaction, as hot sweat broke out through the hand she was holding.

    A small movement that allows us to fully feel each other’s warmth.

    Sein and I, conscious of all the small yet unfamiliar nerves, walked slowly and warmly through the streets of the winter festival.

    ‘When you hold hands with someone you like… this is what it felt like.’

    I only found out now.

    Throbbing.. Throbbing..

    When you are with someone you like, your body unconsciously tenses up, causing natural muscle pain.

    Starting from the hand I held with Seinnim to the arm coming up… I felt numbness, as if I was slowly going through a spasm.

    Throbbing.. Throbbing..

    Of course, I didn’t want to let go of the hand I was holding with Seinnim, but I wasn’t used to it yet.

    I naturally look around to resolve this situation.

    ‘uh.? What about that??’

    A store sign that immediately steals my vision.

    It was none other than a store handling {magic tools}.

    I knew that the {magic tools} my mother mentioned were distributed only to the {Royal Knights}, so I naturally thought that there would be no stores selling them.

    However, when I saw a store selling {magic tools} like this, I was possessed by the desire to go there.

    I was just more faithful to my instinct to want to know than to reason.

    "Sein-nim.. over there."

    just as expected. Da-heein, holding Se-in’s hand tightly as if wondering when her arm went numb, asks if they would like to go to a store that sells {magic tools}.

    Dahyin’s blue eyes are even more sparkling.

    My grip is so tight! Sae-in, who was probably surprised by Da-heein’s reaction as she entered, nods her head at the sight of her looking very happy and enters the store.

    ***

    Jalang..

    With the cheerful sound of a bell, the door to a store selling {magic tools} opened wide, and I was greeted by the smell of crude oil inside.

    Is business going well? There are quite a few people using various {magic tools} and armor? I was choosing a sword-like weapon.

    Of course, there were no men to be found. This place was full of women with strong physiques.

    “Please take the [map], two [freeze bombs], and five [sticky bombs].”

    Well done…

    The woman wearing strong armor made of monster skin and sharp weapons appears to be the owner? takes charge of payment.

    “I guess a guest has arrived.”

    "Keuhum.. Welcome."

    An old woman who appeared to be less than 130 feet tall stood up, looked at Sein and me as we entered the store, and calmly opened her mouth.

    “This place only deals with items that can be used by {hunters}, {adventurers}, and {mercenaries}..”

    “I’m sorry, but these items are too dangerous for you to use..”

    Although I hesitated for a moment at the store owner’s friendly yet cautious words, I did not back down and quietly took off the coat I was wearing to quietly announce that I was a student at the {Royal Academy}.

    'Never thought I would see the dwarves..'

    Despite his small stature, his skillful eyes and enormous forearm muscles gave him an unusual look.

    “Oh my.. I guess I made a mistake.”

    “It’s not the first time I’ve had a guest with an incorrect rent. Please understand.”

    The old woman’s host quickly handed her an apple and told her to take a slow look around.

    “then..”

    [Sticky Bullet] 5 silver coins

    It is made by cutting the sticky mucus of [Slime], and when thrown, it sticks to the monster’s body or fur and is used to block its movement for a short period of time.

    [Fire Bomb] 7 silver coins

    It is made by processing the “flame lizard” magic stone and cutting it down to size, so its fire power is not high, but when thrown, it explodes with a small impact and is used to scare monsters with an ear-piercing sound and a flashing light. do.

    [Ice Coal] 7 silver coins

    It is made by not only processing the “freezing” attribute magic stone of [Ice Earth] but also cutting it down to size. When thrown, it is used to instantly cool the monster’s body with a small impact and block its movement.

    [Lightning Bomb] 20 silver coins

    It is made by not only processing the “lightning” attribute magic stone of the [Thunderbolt] but also cutting it down to size. It has quite high power and is used to block the movement of monsters for a long time.

    [Ice Bomb] 32 silver coins

    The magic stone of [Flame Lizard] and the magic stone of [Ice Earth] are imbued with enormous magical energy, causing them to explode with moderate impact, creating thick fog and completely blocking vision for a long time.

    Thick fog-like vapor spreads quickly and is accompanied by loud noises, impairing hearing, vision, and sense of smell.

    I carefully observe the {disposable magic tools}, which all seem to be made by skilled craftsmen, and check in detail to see if there is anything I can learn.

    ‘It’s better than I thought??’

    It was definitely a {disposable magic tool} that {adventurers}, {mercenaries}, or {hunters} would use, and it had appropriate performance.

    ‘This is good too… hmm. '

    'I was wondering if there was something more amazing… maybe I was expecting too much.'

    It was certainly useful, but it was full of {disposable magic tools} that seemed simpler than expected, and there were no {magic tools}-like items anywhere.

    I sigh deeply as I thought there might be {magic tools} being distributed by the {Royal Knights}.

    'Well.. Still, I knew how to use the magic stone like that.'

    I try to console myself and start looking around the store.

    Meanwhile, Sein was enjoying seeing the various changes in Dahyun’s expression as she looked at {Magic Tool} with a serious expression.

    That’s because Dahyun’s expression of being happy when she sees something and frowning when she sees something else seemed cute.

    Tread.. plod..

    After looking at it for a while, something begins to attract my attention beyond the nice-looking display case.

    ‘Sleep, sleep, sleep.’

    After checking the {magic tool} placed there, I could immediately see that this was the high-performance {magic tool} I had been looking for.

    [Subspace Ring] 47 gold coins

    It is a ring made from the scales of the legendary space transfer monster [Ancient Dragon Mument], and is a work made by the dwarf race long ago for fun.

    It is made quite elaborately compared to {Jujak} and can be stored according to the weight of the object or food without worrying about its size.

    User’s signature required – (unregistered)

    Storage capacity – 20kg

    There was a very dark blue magic stone embedded in the center of the round, beautifully shining ring. At first glance, it looked like a simple ring, but after learning about its effect, it started to look even more stylish.

    Even though I know the price of that [subspace ring], I quickly approach the owner and ask if I can purchase the ring from the display case.

    "It would be nice if I could just sell this."

    “Because the price is the price, it is also a product that has been neglected for a long time.”

    "Keuhum.."

    The owner was talking as if she was trying to dissuade Da-hin from asking such questions, but her keen-sighted eyes were focused on Se-in.

    As if sending an unspoken signal.

    Da-hein, who was only focused on the ring, didn’t notice it, but Se-in nodded cautiously, as if he had read the owner’s eyes.

    just as expected. The price of the [Subspace Ring] suggested by the owner of the {Disposable Magic Tool} store is none other than 47 gold coins…

    The amount that a typical {hunter} could earn by hunting monsters for a month was about 5 gold coins. That amount was enormous.

    In order to hunt valuable medium-sized monsters such as [Tagpog] or [Tululpo], most people hunt in small groups of 3 or 4 people rather than going out alone, so of course the profit distribution is also significantly reduced, but 5 gold coins At this level, he was usually in the category of making good money.

    Moreover, 47 gold coins was an enormous amount, equivalent to more than the monthly operating expenses of an ordinary village… so it was natural that it could not be purchased in reality.

    Of course, I knew the value of that amount, but I quickly lowered my head with tears in my eyes because I knew that the 8 gold coins I had in my hand were worthless.

    Well done…

    At that moment, a bag containing various magic stones appeared in Dahyin’s bag.

    "Please wait a moment.."

    "Could it be in that pocket?"

    Dahyin shows the owner the bag containing the magic stones she brought out just in case and asks if she can sell them.
