‘It’s full of things that can’t be read here either.’

Theo chuckled. Why are there so many secrets everywhere?

I think these items are for more than 50 coins. The number of coins Theo had right now wasn’t even a limit anyway, so I wasn’t too curious.

Instead, I was curious about the other two items.

Under 10 Coins and 50 Coins.

What the hell is in here?

‘They are separated by category.’

Just as [Weapons] is divided into several subcategories such as ‘one-handed weapons’ and ‘two-handed weapons’.

[Armor] is ‘upper body’ and ‘lower body’,

[Accessories] are various accessories such as ‘necklaces’ or ‘rings’,

[Collectibles] were sorted into numerous sub-categories such as ‘Potions’ and ‘Amulets’.

‘Is it fun?’

But Theo put off dissecting the shop window for a while.

It was because Selford and Natasha were approaching this place.

“Are you feeling okay?”

“Yes. Thanks to.”

Theo nodded calmly at Selford’s question, but did not forget to aim the moonlight sword at Natasha, who was following him.

“What is this? I am the one who helped you.”

Natasha had a slightly angry face.

According to the Maehwa Palace lord’s instructions, he helped him while risking arguing with the Central Secretariat.

What comes back is hostility.

“Are you asking because you don’t know?”

“You don’t know what?”

“Ask Felix directly.”

“Felix… … ?”

What kind of nonsense is this?

‘no way?’

Then Natasha belatedly came up with an assumption.

Currently, Felix is found seriously injured in the area of the Kyoryonghoe.

So I thought it was like that after arguing with the Kyoryonghoe, but if that’s not the case… … ?

“Hurry up and check it out. If it’s a mistake on our part… … I will formally apologize. However, just know that this incident has nothing to do with the will of the princess.”

“… … .”

Theo didn’t respond quickly.

He said he knew the sincerity of the Princess Maehwa, but even so, now was not the time to show his heart rashly.

This, too, is an extension of politics.

Natasha bit her lower lip, bowed once more to Theo, and left.

“Well, I don’t know what happened, but don’t hate that side too much. Like our captain, they thought of you very terribly.”

Theo silently nodded at Selford’s words.

“Anyway, my greeting was late. I am Shelford Gardner. In the future, when you come to our Baekgap Yong Gi University, you will become a direct senior. I wish you well in the future.”

Theo sighed inwardly as he took Shelford’s outstretched hand.

It was one of the six houses of Gardner, and it was a place that boasted outstanding unity to the extent that it was called the ‘family of wolves’.

That’s why I don’t tend to send greetings to the outside world, but there was a person who was hired with the courage of 100… … !

Whoops!

“… … ?”

Theo looked at Selford as he pressed his hand hard.

What is this?

Shelford was grinning.

“Are you coming? Baekgap Yongdae?”

Theo laughed awkwardly.

“I wondered why the captain of Palbulchul was talking about you again… … After seeing it like this, aren’t you greedy for me too?”

She tried to pull her hand away, but Selford didn’t.

Like you’ll never let go

“I like your skills as well as your personality. By all means, come. got it? huh? yes?”

Theo took a sneaky step backwards as Selford pressured himself into his face and his eyes twinkled.

Suddenly, there was a hand pulling on the back of Selford.

“Stop forcing it. When I see your disgusting face, I feel like I’m going to go away.”

“What’s wrong with my face!”

“Can you look in the mirror and tell me? And until he officially becomes our junior, Theo Ragnar-nim is definitely the successor? Did you cut out your tongue? Use respectful words.”

It was a woman with a slightly smaller build who dried up Selford.

As expected, the symbol of the Baekgap Yonggidae was drawn on the test tube uniform.

“I will separately educate you on this rudeness. Please forgive the rudeness.”

“no. Thank you for your help today.”

Polite greetings from Theo.

The woman, Arin Negative, looked a little surprised.

It was the first time I had ever seen a Ragnar of that age be so polite.

‘You mean the captain isn’t wearing it for nothing? Evelyn sunbae-nim said she took me in as a swordsmanship apprentice.

Arin, who admired Evelynn the most in the world, was growing a crush on Theo.

“Anyway, it’s not my mother, and the nagging… … .”

“What, man?”

“hehehehe. No. Boy, you didn’t say anything.”

Selford playfully passed Arin’s ax eye and spoke to Theo again.

“Anyway, I’m waiting for you to become our junior… … So, please visit us right after the flowering ceremony. You know? Oh, don’t worry, we’ll finish all the cleanup.”

Selford tried to stop talking again, but after receiving Arin’s glare, he blurted out with respectful words.

Theo couldn’t help but laugh lightly.

In such a free-spirited atmosphere, I definitely thought that Baek Gap Yonggi would be okay.

I couldn’t be sure yet.

“I will think positively.”

“It’s not positive, it’s confirmed right here… … !”

“Ignore this guy, we’ll go first.”

Perhaps Arin didn’t want to talk too long, he lightly greeted Selford and quickly left.

“Whoa… … !”

Theo took a long breath as he was left alone.

A place where only silence remains, as if the battle that had been noisy a while ago was like that.

He also had a lot to sort out.

* * *

First of all, Theo not only retrieved all the demon species summoned by Axion, but also was able to obtain the demon species that the Gyoryukai had collected so far.

In their stronghold, horse servants were piled up like a mountain.

Thanks to.

I was able to get a lot of points, as well as the fastball rules.

‘It looks like you found out about the hidden piece about the totem, but didn’t know about the hidden piece about the Gugyeol.’

It was fortunate that the fewer people knew about the secret code, the better it was for Theo.

Theo has collected a total of seven pieces of the lightning speed defense technique.

Now there are only two left.

In addition, it seemed that it could be useful because it was possible to collect quite a few of the ‘flame’ or ‘frost’ subtitles.

And,

‘Finally until level 20 and the opening of new privileges.’

[Observe ‘Theo Ragnar’.]

+

Theo Ragnar (15 years old/male)

· Level: 20

· Ability (▼)

Strength: 102 Agility: 42

Stamina: 26 HP: 228

Intelligence: 24 Luck: 5

· Skill (▼)

– Lesser Drake Fear

– Hatchling Synchro

· [Unable to view]

․ Current number of coins held: 3

+

Theo exclaimed with delight at the fact that he had finally reached level 20.

It was just a simple change in the first digit, but that alone gave me an indescribable sense of accomplishment.

The feeling of growing step by step inspired him.

In particular, the coefficient of [Agility] has risen considerably.

It was the result of all-in additional stats with the idea of making [Agility] a 100 factor after [Strength].

‘Because the attack speed and movement speed increase only when the body is agile.’

Above all, there was a separate part that stood out the most in the status window.

[Number of coins currently held: 3]

coin.

The use of this reward, which had been given as a reward so far, was right there in the shop window.

+

[One-handed weapon (▼)]

– Jewel Cutting Dagger

– Asadal’s Blade

– A dagger folded nine times

.

.

+

The list of items was in the lowest category.

Theo tapped the topmost item among them with his hand.

+

[Jewel Cutting Dagger]

· Type: Dagger

· Attack Power: 5~10

Equip condition: Strength 5

Effect: Decreases durability by 15% with a certain probability

Price: 1 Coin

+

‘It was also currency. I can buy anything I want.’

While weapons and equipment for beginners, such as the Beginner series, are given as quest rewards,

From now on, it seemed to mean that you should buy and use the items you want on your own.

For Theo, I thought it was better.

In fact, most of the equipment given so far, except for the accessories, is worn out or broken and is almost unusable.

In addition, the quality of the weapons purchased from the shop window did not seem to be bad.

Even the dagger I’m looking at now has comparable attack power to [Beginner’s Training Sword], and the effect is perfect.

The durability of equipment is also forcibly reduced.

This also meant that depending on how you use it, you can break the opponent’s equipment and take advantage of the match.

Compared to actual artifacts, it would cost a fair amount of gold to purchase something like this.

The lowest-grade item located at the bottom is this much, what if you go above it?

There was no need to look any further.

‘Now I have a total of 3 coins left. Can you buy something nice with this? Or should I collect more coins?’

Or is there any other way to get coins other than quests?

‘A store can usually buy things, but it can also sell them… … !’

Theo opened his inventory for the first time in a while.

Among them, while hunting monsters, I touched one of the items I secretly collected, hoping it would be good as an artifact material.

+

[Sandworm’s Bodily Fluid]

· Description: A unique sandworm bodily fluid that lives in cold regions covered with ice caps. It seems to be fine as a material for cold weather items.

· Price: 2 Coins

+

‘It’s also on sale. then.’

Theo sold all the materials he had been collecting and the beginner series that he no longer used.

Among them, there were also cases where they appeared as 0 coins, as if there was no marketability.

Thanks to this, Theo was able to significantly increase his coin holdings to 19 coins.

You can also see items under 50 coins.

‘I wish I had something good.’

Fortunately, I was able to find one item I wanted at the bottom of the list.

+

[Death-bit]

Type: Throwing Dagger, Dagger

· ATK: 25~30

Equip condition: level 20

· effect

– ‘Mortal Wound’ activated with a certain probability

– ‘Bleeding’ curse with high probability

– Accuracy +36%

– Armor ignoring chance +15%

– Automatic position recovery

· Price: 4 Coins

+

[Would you like to purchase ‘Death Beat’?]

‘This is it.’

Telekinesis became an invisible hand during battle and helped a lot in many ways.

Make sure to read from noble mtl dot com

Like the secret technique using pebbles or the ‘invisible giant’s hand’ that caught Axion and his gang.

However, the limits were also clear.

Right now, Theo’s Moonback sword and Drake’s blade were too heavy to use as telekinesis.

‘So I wished I had a good dagger of this size for smoother use… … . Isn’t this more than I thought?’

Deathbeat’s option was also very good.

From [mortal wounds] to [bleeding].

Because they were the most effective options for hunting monsters and killing enemies.

In addition, position recovery is also automatic.

It meant that the effort to collect it separately could be reduced.

How comfortable is this?

It seemed like something that existed just for Theo now.

[I paid 16 coins to purchase ‘Death Beat x4’.]

[Currently remaining coins: 3]

It could be said to be a fairly large expenditure, but the satisfaction was greater than that.

‘If I bought it, I should try using it.’

Theo took out four death beats from his inventory and activated his telekinesis.

self-

The death beat floated into the air with a rattling sound.

Then, with several controls, the daggers lined up in a row began to circle around Theo.

It was the result of constantly practicing telekinesis with stones whenever possible.

Theo’s gaze turned the other way.

A forest with nothing.

dig-

One of the death beats was placed horizontally, and it was shot like an arrow.

Other death beats followed suit.

Like the eyes of a child discovering a new toy, Theo’s eyes were shining more intensely than ever.

* * *

A few more days pass,

Finally, the last day of the second flowering ceremony has arrived.

＜final ranking＞

1st. Theo Ragnar (1,321 points)

2nd place. Ray Ragnar (1,002 points)

3rd place. Erica Ranke (826 points)
