I Want to Buy Hayeon-i’s Time

,Hayyaaaat!’

A sword swung mightily.

In response, the giant dragon’s wings were severed.

The Vampire Dragon Bahamut fell much more easily than before.

A new week had begun.

As the raid members’ specs had increased significantly, I also returned to my main character instead of my alt to proceed with the raid.

,Reincarnation!’

,Vampire!!!’

The raid members, especially the mages who had chosen reincarnation into True Bloods, cheered and accepted the blood pouring from the sky.

Thanks to the raid dungeon being reset, our guild’s mages could also proceed with the True Blood quest.

It was now difficult to find pure elemental mages.

At best, there were only about five elemental mages remaining in the guild.

Helena was also one of the remaining elemental mages.

,Helena, are you okay not reincarnating?’

,Yeah. I’m going to be the same race as Yeon-i.’

,Your DPS will drop, you know?’

,It’s enough anyway.’

I gave an awkward smile at Helena’s words.

The True Blood’s exclusive racial skill, Blood Magic, was a skill that gave wings to the mage class.

To increase firepower, it was natural to choose the True Blood race.

If the guild was lacking in DPS, I would have ignored Helena’s opinion and forced her to reincarnate with my authority as the guild leader, but since the DPS was sufficient now, I couldn’t do that.

,I want to be the same race as the Blood Demon King-nim too!’

Snow Mage also remained a demon race.

Seriously…

I sighed and thought.

As expected, popular pretty girls are a pain in the ass.

Aren’t there people who like me so much that they even try to match their race to mine?

,Is there anyone among those who reincarnated who wants to use a rank reset ticket?’

Since the Vampire Dragon Bahamut raid was over, I asked the guild members, especially the mages.

The mages, who were wrapped in a bloody aura, raised their hands as soon as I finished speaking.

,Okay. I’ll give you all some time to choose your jobs.’

Unintentionally, I ended up having a break time.

I looked around at the mages who were choosing their jobs and approached Helena.

Helena, who was sitting on a large pillar that had fallen between the cracks of the collapsed building, tapped her lap when I approached.

The action was so natural.

,What are you doing?’

,Telling you to sit here…’

When I stopped walking and asked, Helena avoided my gaze and answered.

At least she’s aware that she’s embarrassed.

Sitting on your friend’s lap in front of all the guild members.

It’s an action that doesn’t suit the dignity of a guild leader.

I cleared my throat and went to sit next to Helena.

,Ah…’

Helena stroked her thigh as if she was disappointed.

I also want to sit on her lap if I could.

The soft and fluffy thighs would be better than the hard stone floor.

,Ahem…’

But I am the guild leader.

The guild leader who leads 39 people excluding me.

The guild leader always had to look at the situation coolly and be a role model for the guild members.

So I couldn’t sit on a guild member’s lap.

,Yeon-ah.’

,Huh?’

,Do you think we can clear today’s raid?’

,Hmm…’

I tilted my head at Helena’s words.

Can we clear it?

I don’t know yet. The overall DPS of the guild members has increased at once, but raids can’t be cleared just by having strong DPS.

Of course, the probability of clearing it would have increased compared to when the DPS was weak.

,Maybe.’

,Then… after the raid… where should we go to play?’

,After the raid?’

,Yeah. If we clear the raid, the remaining try time becomes free time, right?’

,No. I have to prepare for the second raid.’

I shook my head with a firm expression at Helena’s words.

If the first attack team clears the raid dungeon, there will be time to spare, but I still had the second attack team left.

,Can’t you not do that…?’

,Ahem!’

I turned my head with a stern expression at Helena’s question.

Why is she being like this lately?

Helena, who has lived with me for a long time, should know that I will never give up on the guild members.

,Then… if the second team clears it too…?’

,Then it’ll be okay.’

If the second attack team also cleared the raid, there was no reason why I couldn’t grant Helena’s request.

Helena smiled brightly at my answer.

That’s when it happened.

The mages who were choosing their jobs far away waved their hands and sent me a signal.

,Guild Leader-nim!!! We’re ready!!!’

I tapped Helena’s thigh next to me and got up from my seat.

The soft sensation spreading throughout my palm felt good.

,Let’s go.’

,Okay…’

***

The firepower of the skilled mages increased overall.

The result was immediate.

Iona, who had been giving us a hard time, fell before all of her patterns could even come out.

After that, the final boss, Lunaris, was not much different.

Her health melted away and she fell before all the patterns that had been tormenting us could even come out.

It felt like we were running a raid dungeon from the previous season with items from a new expansion pack.

,Wow…’

The mages were admiring what they had done.

Even in a situation where the overall damage of the Duck Bomb and Glass Cannon builds had been nerfed, this kind of thing happens.

Everyone in this place could have predicted it.

Additional nerfs were an unavoidable schedule.

Kwaek kwaek!

I hugged a duck toy crawling at my feet.

The guy who was struggling here and there stopped moving as soon as he saw my face and burrowed into my arms.

As expected, even toys recognize the face of a pretty girl.

Now that the raid is over, it’s time to proceed with the auction.

I glanced at the dropped items and shook my head.

Warrior items were dropped, but they were options with excellent defensive performance.

This was Dogric’s share.

The only thing worth taking was [Master Rank Transcendence Stone].

That item appeared again this time without fail.

Seeing that one is dropped for each named boss without fail, the drop rate seems to be 100 percent.

But the performance of this item was very strange.

,Iyap-nim.’

,Yes?’

,You used the Master Rank Transcendence Stone, right?’

,Yes.’

,Which job’s master rank did you raise?’

,In my case, I raised the master rank of the basic job, Thief.’

,Basic jobs also go up? What’s the effect?’

,The effect of the mastery you have is slightly increased, and a slight effect is added to the active skills of the job.’

,Is it a noticeable level?’

,No…’

I let out a small groan at Iyap’s words and stroked my chin.

There was very little information about the Master Rank Transcendence Stone.

This was because the effect could not be known unless someone like Iyap used it directly.

In addition, there were few users who could do raids, so there couldn’t be many reviews coming up.

I fell into one concern.

It was a concern about whether to spend gold on an item whose specs were not certain, or to spend gold on items that would be dropped next week.

,Yeon-ah.’

,Why?’

,What’s bothering you?’

Worry.

There is a big worry.

The gold I currently have left is about 2,000 gold.

Since I became a high school student, the amount of gold I can earn has decreased due to the reduced play time.

In addition, I still had the transcendence stone that I had to repay to Helena, so I couldn’t use this money carelessly.

Of course, Helena told me to pay it back slowly, but I didn’t feel comfortable if I had debt left.

Should I use it or not.

,Are you short on gold?’

As expected, it’s Helena.

She saw through what my worries were at once.

But I didn’t nod.

If it’s an angel like Helena, she’ll try to lend me gold again because I’m short on gold.

,It’s okay. I have enough.’

,Really…?’

,Ah, not enough…’

I change my words just in case.

If I have enough, she might ask why I’m not paying back the transcendence stone.

Of course, Helena wouldn’t do that…

,Then what’s bothering you?’

,I was wondering whether to buy that transcendence stone.’

I said, pointing to the small stone registered in the guild auction.

,If you want to buy it, just buy it.’

,But the effect isn’t certain…’

,Just buy it.’

,But…’

,You’re short on gold after all, right? I’ll lend it to you.’

,Ah, no.’

I hurriedly shook my head and stepped back.

But Helena was faster.

She waved her hand in the air and sent me an exchange request.

Should I accept it or not.

The hesitation was short.

Okay.

I’ll get a little bit here, buy the transcendence stone, and buy other items with the remaining money.

Then…

,How much do you need?’

,A, about a thousand gold…?’

,Will that be okay?’

,For now…’

Of course, I don’t borrow too much money.

Helena, who hesitated for a moment at my words, nodded and moved her hand in the air.

Jjalgeurang!

When gold is raised in the exchange window, a special sound effect is heard.

It means Helena raised the gold.

,Accept it quickly.’

,Ah, wait…’

I narrowed my eyes and checked the amount of gold Helena gave me.

The arrangement of the number 11111 written in front of the currency meaning golden gold coins.

Is this really a thousand gold?

It looks right at first glance.

,Yeon-ah, hurry up. The auction looks like it’s going to end.’

,Ah, okay.’

I nod at Sohee’s urging.

It’s right, right?

It will be right.

At that moment, heavy gold came into my light inventory.

I received a supply of bullets that I was short of.

Now there’s nothing to be afraid of.

I bid 1,000 gold on the transcendence stone that was being auctioned.

Jjalgeurang!

600 gold, 700 gold.

A thousand gold bid suddenly appeared on the item that was slowly soaring.

The guild members checked the bidder’s nickname and nodded and stepped back.

Those who were running the race gave way.

Unintentionally, there was a trend that the guild members would give way like this if I jumped into the bidding.

It can’t be helped because they don’t listen even if I tell them not to do that.

In the end, the small stone was put in my hand.

,End!!!’

,Everyone, you worked hard!’

,See you next week!’

All raids are over.

It ended a bit futile, but what can I do.

The guild members start to disappear one by one, saying goodbye.

I stayed behind and watched the scene.

,I’m leaving too.’

,Ah, Helena. The gold I have left…’

Before Helena left, I opened my mouth while checking the gold left in my inventory.

The gold I borrowed from her was 1,111 gold.

It was to return the gold left over from the auction.

But what’s going on?

The numerical value of the gold remaining in my inventory was strange.

,Heok…’

Ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand…

Tens of thousands of gold?

I was startled and raised my head.

But Helena had already disconnected.
