Return of the Archmage

Chapter 21

8.

Usually, users spend all their money on equipment.

This is another reason why it is called similar to games.

It is no different from the days when he gave up his daily life on games and hit everything.

In order to be strong, they buy equipment by robbing all of their assets that were not enough to make money.

I can’t help it.

It is true that for most users, increasing equipment rather than improving their skills is more helpful for raising the level.

It helps to earn more money to stay safe, stay strong and gain hands-on experience by raising stats than to train your weapons.

That’s why no one swears.

If you’re a user, and if you know how a user lives, you know it’s an investment, not an addiction.

In a way, should I say it’s standard now?

For users, investing money in equipment is the way to make money.

However, Lee Hye-sung broke common sense again this time.

His common sense is always different from ordinary users.

“You’re buying a house.

“It’s a busy street. It doesn’t have to be that big. Spend about 10 billion won.”

Along with the horse, Han Seo-young recalled what Lee Hye-sung said a while ago.

“You really buy a house just to live comfortably?”

“Pick out the people you need for the housework.”

“…….”

In today’s world, that’s not unusual for users either.

Due to the user’s characteristics, which have more time spent on cracks than on Earth and cannot be relieved for a second, it is the human mind that it is comfortable to return to Earth and do not want to lift a hand.

Besides, isn’t it a world where everything is possible with money?

It is not a big burden for talented users such as housekeepers and helpers.

It’s just that most users don’t have enough money for that’s all.

What surprised Han Seo-young is that Lee Hye-sung enjoys this so naturally.

“It’s like a real onion.”

It’s amazing every time I see it for a whole month.

Lee Hye-sung has never enjoyed such luxury in his life.

“It’s hard to start with, but it’s easy next time.”

“You didn’t have the first time.”

“Didn’t I tell you? As I lost my memory, other memories were filled instead. I used to stay in a better place there.”

“What kind of fantasy world is it there?”

“Uh. ‘Cause I was the emperor who ruled the continent.

“Pfft. All right. I’m not sure about this field, so I’ll ask the associated agency.”

Anyway, the owner of the money is Lee Hye-sung.

It is the consumption he wants and there is no reason to stop it.

It’s actually Han Seo-young’s job to recognize the gambling place even if she wants to spend it all.

In addition, Lee Hye-sung still has 16 billion won left even if he spends 10 billion won and pays off the loan.

It’s enough to retire right away and just play and eat for the rest of your life.

“How can I write this well?”

“Let’s go. I can’t spread it all over the world, but at least I know how to spread it to the top ranking players in Korea.”

“Where?”

Han Seo-young clearly grasped Lee Hye-sung’s intention and took the lead.

“I never thought I’d go up to the 15th floor in my life.”

a determined expression

But the redness hidden behind it.

As a user, Han Tae-sung was also excited about the expectation.

“Are you going to yubaek?”

“Yes.”

“Wow! Crazy! I’ve only been to the 10th floor.”

“Blank?”

What’s making you so excited about?

Lee Hye-sung asked, but the two only smiled confidently and did not explain.

“Follow me and I’ll know. Korea is proud of one of the world’s few best attractions. User’s Department Store.”

“In fact, we’ve only been on the regular floor, so we don’t know what’s on the vvip floor. That’s why I can’t explain.”

“Hey, you idiot. I’m pretending to know Hyesung after a long time. How can you be so tactless?”

“I thought I’d be too intimidated to go there.”

Han Seo-young could not deny it.

Lee Hye-sung silently followed the two who were so excited.

I was looking forward to it.

“I wish I could get a set of Kang In-ho’s armor.”

“…….”

“…Hey, my friend. I’m looking forward to it.”

Of course, the size of the expectation was not enough to kill the energy of excited Han Seo-young and Han Tae-sung.

***

User’s department store.

The name is quite childish.

But no one is saying the name is childish.

It’s the most fancy and luxurious department store in Korea, no, in the world.

A 15-story department store.

The width that takes more than 30 minutes just to look around one floor.

It has more than 1,000 employees.

However, one of the biggest reasons why user department stores became so popular, aside from those factors.

Customer rating system.

Department stores rate customers just as countries rate users.

The rating limits the floor on which customers can climb.

It is absurd and ridiculous for customers, but the user department store has maintained this method since it was created and it is actually a system that many users like.

Anyway, people with higher grades can easily buy things that others can’t buy on high floors.

In addition, systems such as auctions are introduced, and items from top ranking players from other countries gather at world-famous user department stores are often posted.

The user department store’s vvip rating is based on 2 billion won in subscription fee and 10 billion won in annual use.

“You mean, two billion won just to get to the 15th floor?”

Of course, I can’t understand it with the mind of an ordinary person.

I pay 2 billion won to buy things.

What a ridiculous thing to do.

Han Seo-young had never thought until yesterday that she would be filling out the vvip membership form.

User department stores were selling high-quality products according to their names, even if they were not on the 15th floor.

“Name. Lee Hyesung. Level 10. No, did you say 12?”

“Uh.”

But it’s different from now on.

You have to play according to your standards.

The world doesn’t live alone, but there are also limits to items that can be saved alone.

The best way for Kang In-ho not to die in a high-level crack is to wear good equipment and always bite the recovery potion.

Equipment wash is not a shame.

So I generously paid 2 billion won.

“Welcome, Hyesung Lee. May I guide you?”

As soon as the payment was made in one lump sum, six female employees with smiles were attached to the three.

The membership is only paid to one person, but it doesn’t matter if they are accompanied.

Too many numbers will interfere with other customers, but not only the number of vvip members themselves, but if you’re that big, you’ll have enough manners.

The same service was provided to Han Seo-young and Han Tae-sung.

Move through a vvip-only elevator.

If you look at other buildings, it’s a 15-story building located more than 30 stories tall.

As soon as the door opens, I can’t help but admire it.

“Wow!”

There’s nothing special.

It’s rather simple.

Luxurious interior.

Things at a certain distance.

It’s a sight you can see everywhere.

But the glow from the items on display is special.

“Crazy! How can a staff be so pretty?”

“…Look at the symbol in front of the shield. What did he hit?”

Han Seo-young and Han Tae-sung were mesmerized even though they didn’t check the options.

Of course, the appearance of the item is not important at all in the crack.

Options are just important.

But it is the appearance that has a profound effect on that option.

“Isn’t this mana tree wood? What’s this jewel? I’ve never seen it before.”

“It’s the finest mana crystal from Jewelry Magic Mimic.”

“Wow! Awesome!”

Whenever they have time, they look around the user community except for the time in the cracks.

Of course, I’ve looked around a lot of high-level equipment and I know what materials I need to make for my class to be most efficient.

It’s just that the level is low and I don’t have the ability to use such equipment.

“Wow. How much is this shield?”

“15 billion won.”

“Crazy.”

Even Han Taesung, who uses more than a billion shields, is intimidated.

When I saw Han Tae-sung and Han Seo-young, who couldn’t take off their disappointment, the employees didn’t change a single expression.

Because I was thoroughly educated.

Don’t be mistaken that the employee in charge of the 15th floor has raised their standards.

The customer who came here, or even an acquaintance who came with the customer, is the owner who holds your bread.

In fact, less than 10 percent of vvip customers came up to the 15th floor and spent less than their membership fees.

Whether you buy your own things or acquaintances, you have to be kind to the end.

“Well.”

Regardless of that, Lee Hye-sung, who moved without hesitation as soon as he came up to the 15th floor, was already looking inside after disappearing from their sight.

“Something to use.”

What else is there’

First of all, the type of weapon I want to buy is a weapon.

Han Tae-sung’s gift is useful enough, but it’s hard to take it forever.

“A six-level sword. Show us.”

At least six-level cracks and seven-level weapons were needed.

“This way.”

That’s why I asked.

I didn’t expect much.

Considering that Kang In-ho, the world’s No. 1, used to wear a 6-level armor set, we judged that even a 5-level item was hard to get.

However, the staff thought for a moment and guided Lee Hye-sung.

There is?

Is it the best scale in the world?

If there is, Lee Hye-sung was willing to spend all the money he earned here no matter what.

If you’re a merchant who can deliver what he wants in one word without having to look elsewhere, it’s not a waste to get ripped off.

No, it’s not a rip-off.

It’s labor cost.

“Do you happen to have a level 7 sword? Dagger doesn’t matter.”

“I’m sorry, sir. There are no level 7 weapons in stock.”

“Let me know as soon as you get out.”

“Okay, sir.”

Just in case, he asks and stands in front of a sealed sword stored at the deepest point on the 15th floor.

“The number one sword used by Kang In-ho. It’s a pitch black flower. It is a six-level weapon and costs 25 billion won immediately.”

“Crazy.”

And as soon as he hears the explanation, Lee Hye-sung’s mouth is filled with a brighter smile than ever.

“It came in yesterday and after a week’s exhibition at immediate sale price, it’s up for auction…”….”

“I’ll buy it.”

“I’ll help you with the payment.”

25 billion won.

Lee Hye-sung’s entire property and has to give up 10 billion won to buy a house.

However, he did not hesitate for a second as soon as he heard the name of the weapon’s owner.

“It’s the only six-level weapon in the world, and it’s the only thing with a sword.”

I knew it even if the staff didn’t say anything.

Of course, it won’t be the only one now.

It’s only when the world’s No. 1 player gets a better weapon that can’t be converted into value.

In a way, it may seem to follow Kang In-ho’s footsteps.

I didn’t care a thing.

“It’s funny.”

It’s Hye Sung who drew the picture to make it seem like she was following.

In the painting, a pastel suddenly fell from the sky.

“It’s a lot of fun.”

“I’ll help you with the payment. Do you want to check the options?”

“No, thanks. Let’s check the accident.”

Kang In-ho’s sword is in the hands of Lee Hye-sung.
