Bush, bust.

You step on a leaf from somewhere, pick up your sword and watch out. Definitely not an arms dealer. There is only one sound, but the arms dealers are not alone in this dangerous Drewin Mountains.

It is also unlikely to be a common wild animal. Wild animals are walking carefully, no matter how big a carnivore may be, but the sound of them is making a loud noise right now.

Most likely a magic potion. The magic is not cautious at all.

What is it?

You see a tree crouching near the bottom of the trail. Seems like three or four of them are shaking at the same time. A beast this size can never be a mountain beast. Wild animals have no body like the wild animals in the meadow. SavelTiger, at best. No matter how big they are, they're only three meters tall.

Later, the black body with the joints appeared slightly above the small cliff tree. In just a moment, I was able to determine the identity of the beast. I'm also a living magical encyclopedia.

‘Silk worm.’

Silkworms are larvae-shaped horseshoes that have a body of approximately 10m in a living form. The creature's ability to bite the giant's mouth and wield its powerful torso in an instant, making it a difficult magical object to deal with.

However, the risk is only level 15 to level 20. It's because movement speed is slow and tiring, so anyone can easily escape if they find it first.

So in my past life, I've only seen the pro continental army and the first battlefield of magic, the Polkin Gateway. This is because the movement speed is falling significantly behind the other things that are rushing too slowly.

“Well, let's catch it. ”

I draw my sword and approach him slowly. The body of the devil comes with a byproduct called Chaos Piece, which can be sold to a Horse Tower or Magic Shop for quite a bit of money. This is because refining and crystallizing this produces an essence that must be entered into a magical item.

No matter how strong the silkworm is, we can't just go. I was broke when I escaped from prison with only one uniform. It's a costly outfit, of course, but it's even more problematic. This outfit is a trophy made by the best artisans on the continent, so there's no place to exchange it for money.

You hear a grunting sound, and the movement of the silkworm is directed this way. It seemed to recognize me. I made my way to a large clearing nearby and lured him away.

Kiuo!

Silk worms protrude out of the forest with their mouths wide. The creature looks like he's seen a giant black worm. He suddenly narrows the streets to swallow me into the deep darkness of the Abyss and raises the Merchant Guild.

Fast. Though it is said to be a slow silkworm, it is as alert as its last attack. If it wasn't, it would be hard to live with that big guy. He'd be dead soon.

I slurped the blade in my hand and breathed Mana. And he slipped away and blew his head off, avoiding the time he was going to swallow me.

The head of a silkworm that rolls in a gull. The trunk that lost its head shook all kinds of nearby trees while sprinkling blue blood everywhere. He's just as strong as I thought.

I approached my head with my mouth still wide open and slashed down with my sword and fixed it to the ground. Then I put the dagger in the back of my neck and swung it with skilled movements and pulled out a translucent little crystal. It looked like a Chaos piece of approximately 35 units with thumbnails.

When it was seen that the wholesale price of chaos pieces within the empire was two silver leafs per unit and one gold leaf was exchanged for 20 silver leafs, it was approximately 3.5 gold leafs.

I rub the chaos piece into my lapel, wipe off the blood, and put it in my pocket. And I left immediately. Silkworms produce no useful byproducts except chaos pieces.

‘There's a spare. Now, let's get this party started. Hehe.’

In the shrine of Divinum, where there is the battle of Divinum, there is the central temple of Degenira, the goddess of corruption. It is a must-see temple for priests and brides to rush in and provide pleasures with only two donations.

However, since the Church of Corruption belongs to the dark forces, I, the Yosrahim Empire, could not enjoy the service until I went to Divinum Sanctuary or Neutral Kingdom. If you don't play clearly when you go once, you will regret it when you turn around.

What's your life like? This is what it's all about. Let's just live today. This was the goal of my life in this era.

So I kept on moving, hunting everything I could see.

* * *

After the night, the sun came to the mid heaven again because it was bright. My pockets are thick with chaos pieces obtained by catching a few magic objects on the way. It's about 110 units, so you've earned 11 gold leafs.

With the 11-life gold, 36 ordinary households will be used for a year. I think my daily entertainment costs are enough.

"Huh?"

I stopped one step in a clearing somewhere. It's because a group of smuggling merchants stood in the way of the road without moving any further. Looks like he stayed here for quite some time, too.

As I made my way through them, a young mercenary came out and stopped me.

“Oh, I've never seen him before. Who is he? ”

I looked at the mercenary like he was an idiot.

“Of course not. I'm not one of you. ”

“Really?"

The young mercenary looks around my back and tilts his head slightly.

“Alone?"

“Yes.”

“Are you sure you want to cross the Dwight Mountains alone? ”

“Talented, going alone. Anyway, get out of my way. I'm busy.”

As I tried to move forward, the young mercenaries withdrew.

“No. It's dangerous."

“Why?”

“There was a battle ahead. ”

“Battle?”

“Yes. A large group of mercenaries is raiding the town of Aim ahead of us. We almost got robbed, too. Luckily, there's someone our commander knows who avoided the fight, but it's dangerous to get close. ”

Looks like a bunch of poor mercenaries showed up. Mercenaries are often like this. I do that when I have a quest, but when I don't, I turn into a band of thieves as soon as I see a town or merchant guild.

“Oh, there was a village here? ”

“Yes. It was originally a town of wealthy people, but I guess I got rich providing home-brewing services to the merchant guild when the smuggling route was broken through. ”

Then it was the perfect town for mercenaries to rob. There will be no loot because security is not crazy, and there will be a lot of loot because they are rich.

I scratched my head in embarrassment. I still have time, but I couldn't stay here like that.

“What kind of mercenaries are they? I'm busy.”

“Jess Mercenaries is pretty notorious. ”

As for Jess Mercenaries, I remember hearing from my friend Hubeo. He's also qualified as a Guardian for a three-tier surprise this year, and he's been through a lot on an odd quest, the final step of the road.

It was to subdue Jess' mercenaries who were trying to pillage.

"Oh, you've been on the run so well, you've been chasing me for over a year. Fuveo, you must be in trouble again. Heavy? “

Suddenly, my face became serious. In fact, this time I'm getting a urine bath too. At the time, I paid a high priest to get out of the way of persecution, but this time it's different. I don't have the money to pay a bribe right now. I don't have to pay for the entertainment.

“Oh my god. How many of them are there? ”

“Pretty big. Over 200 of them. Plus, Jess, our mercenary commander, says he's a senior prosecutor at Expert. ”

Two hundred is worth a frontal battle. Of course, it takes a leader of the mercenaries to be an Expert Senior Inspector, but it's like gum to me, a master inspector with an enlightenment.

‘I have to get rid of it. We have to hurry anyway, so it would be better to solve it together. ’

My choice was simple. I'd rather get rid of Jess Mercenaries even if it's bothering me than spend more than a year here. Honestly, can it make sense to chase after someone else for over a year in the next decade's life? This is a question that can be answered without knowing arithmetic.

“Okay. I'll be going, then. ”

I immediately blew myself up. A young mercenary summoned me, but I didn't mind.

After a few mountains, you see five nasty mercenaries guarding the road. They pulled out their swords and stopped me. It was like they were blocking the road.

“Stop!”

I slowly approached.

“Are you Jess Mercenaries? ”

“Yes."

“Then that's it. ”

Suddenly, my sword whirls, and the heads of three mercenaries fly into the air. A mercenary surprised by a sudden attack pulls out a flare, and I blow his torso away with my arms. He quickly approaches the rear of the last mercenary running away screaming and releases himself from his head to his toes.

“Okay. Five for now. ”

Several branches of blood flowed from the slope beneath my feet. I rub it into my feet and start digging through the bodies of mercenaries.

Mercenaries carry a lot of money with them. There's no special place for you to carry out quests and earn money. Of course, mercenaries with families are sent home by mail, but those without them are usually stacked in their pockets.

"Oh, I knew it!"

One of them is almost broke, but 16 gold leafs came out of four. As expected, the mercenary was a coward.

But I would never kill Jess Mercenaries for money. I'm just sad that I want to save the villagers who are being attacked by mercenaries, and I'm busy on my way to the gymnastics, and I'm also annoyed by the way of suffering that will come later. No matter how bad I am, I would never hurt people for money.

“It's old. The road to the afterlife is rich. ”

I threw a silver coin on the corpse and frowned toward Aim. Five came out with 16 gold leafs. I was looking forward to seeing how much 200 of them would make.
