“Damn it, you're a money-eating ghost, you're a ghost. This damn NPC!”
Midas grumbled incessantly and turned to NPC Haydn..
There were no obstacles to Midas's progress..
Yol, who manages NPC Haydn, actually widened the distance between him and NPC Haydn more than usual..
spoke through the streets.
‘There is nothing good about being involved with that truth. Should ignore it.’
I don't want to be associated with the troublemaker Midas anymore..
“How much money are you losing because of this quest? I should have bought some items with this money.!”
Toward Yol, Midas repeated the same grumbling in a louder voice, as if to make him listen, and Yol slowly turned his head with his eyes closed, as if he didn't want to hear those words..
I made a gesture that I would not even look at him anymore..
After seeing Yol's appearance, Midas's expression was very serious as he closed the distance between himself and NPC Haydn..
“I brought it.”
Through that serious expression, he spoke short words in a very low voice..
“That's amazing. I never thought I'd bring this.”
NPC Haydn accepted Midas' words..
[Give Haydn 7 Goblin's Grudges..]
And I immediately accepted the quest materials..
“Thanks for making my job easier..”
[Received quest reward.]
[Your level has risen.]
[Haydn reveals his crush on you.]
And paid the price.
It was a sweet price.
But Midas did not lose his appetite for the sweetness..
Rather, I paid close attention to the conversation with NPC Haydn..
“Could you please help me with one more item??”
Eventually, the moment the question came out of NPC Haydn's mouth, Midas gave the answer as if he had been waiting..
“yes.”
[‘I received the quest ‘Haydn’s Research’.]
After a short answer, a notification was heard in Midas' ears, and a quest window appeared..
[Haydn's research]
- Quest Rank: Unique
- Quest level: level 10 or lower
- Quest content: Special ingredients are needed to make the medicine Haydn learned from his teacher. Let’s find a tree that was struck by lightning and bring it to us..
- Quest reward: Medicine made from a tree struck by lightning, experience points, title ‘Haydn’s Helper’’
tree struck by lightning.
‘ah.’
The moment Midas saw those words, he discarded the dozens of scenarios he had in mind..
‘It's the best scenario.’
And he left only the best scenario he could think of..
In that state, Midas turned his back on NPC Haydn..
Midas, with his back turned, was sticking out his snout and looking dissatisfied..
In that state, Midas said to Yol:.
“Hey, that guy named Haydn, does his quest really only cost this much??”
To that, Yol answered in a businesslike tone..
“Information about the quest is only provided to those who have purchased a ticket. Anything that happens to those who did not purchase a ticket is their responsibility..”
Midas's face was filled with dissatisfaction at the extremely business-like tone and his determination not to have anything to do with that guy named Midas anymore..
It was like a balloon ready to burst at any moment..
“No, anyway······.”
Finally, just as he was about to express his dissatisfaction, Midas closed his mouth and shook his head..
“Hey, what's wrong with the manager? The problem is that this game is a trash game.”
With a long sigh, Midas shook his head and looked at Yol and said:.
“You suffered for no reason because of me. sorry.”
Only then did Yoldo relax his posture a little..
“no.”
There is no need to do anything towards the person who bowed their head first..
“take care.”
With those words, when Midas left NPC Haydn's house, Yol had a bitter smile on his face..
‘I can't even do this.’
It was a moment when Yol accepted this situation as just a happening..
7.
‘I can't even do this.’
After saying hello to Yol and leaving NPC Haydn's house, Midas went straight into the alley..
Only after confirming that he was in a place where no one was there, Midas let out a long sigh that he had been holding in..
“Ugh.”
A look of nervousness was evident on Midas's face..
‘Damn explorer guild bastards.’
To be honest, the current appearance of Midas was thought to be excessive for players starting God Wars..
It's true that the Explorer's Guild is great..
Nevertheless, Midas' reaction was clearly excessive for the average player..
But I couldn't help it.
‘It reminds me of the old days.’
Midas, he saw with his own eyes what process the Explorers Guild went through to acquire this business..
In the first place, the Explorer's Guild did not naturally use NPC quests as business items from the beginning..
Common sense dictates that a guild suddenly comes out and tells NPCs to pay money to receive quests, saying they are theirs from now on, but the other players are like, “Of course you have to do that. Fighting!” Isn't it impossible to shout?
There were quite a few people who rebelled for the first time..
‘There was no real massacre like that..’
And against those who rebelled, the Explorer's Guild staged a massacre rather than a war..
‘10All major guilds join hands.’
In addition, the massacre at that time was carried out by all of the ten major guilds, including the Explorers Guild..
To be precise, it was possible to become one of the top 10 guilds of today by creating a cartel at that time and taking advantage of it..
10Because the great guilds did not achieve their current absolute status overnight..
Anyway, Midas experienced the entire process from beginning to end..
While playing God Wars, there was a story about a player who was partying together until yesterday quitting the game because he was caught by a teenage guild, and I saw countless players being hunted by teenage guilds while hunting..
I experienced the most brutal violence in God Wars..
‘Of course, there are dog holes everywhere..’
In other words, Midas survived in such a world for over five years without dying..
Even though I was at rock bottom, I was able to earn money to support my brother, my nephew, and myself in this world where there is nothing but exploitation..
Nothing else matters, but I clearly know how to survive God Wars..
‘All you have to do is get out of the starting village..’
Moreover, just because the Explorer Guild was called God Wars, it did not mean that they ruled the entire world..
It wasn't exactly worth it..
Anyone can see that attaching a manager next to every NPC is inefficient..
In the case of the village of beginning, it was originally a place where the explorer guild strategically concentrated its power..
In order to impress upon beginners that they should follow the Explorers' Guild's methods, a manager was assigned to all NPCs in the village and they were monitored and supervised..
In other words, if you leave the starting village, the story is different..
‘If you go by castle level, you don't have to act like an asshole in front of the explorer guild..’
When the scale becomes castle-level, it is impossible to control all NPCs no matter how great the explorer guild is..
Usually made a choice and focus..
I monitored and managed only a few NPCs who gave really important quests..
‘Above all, the scale of God Wars is insane..’
Even that couldn't cover the entire gigantic scale of God Wars..
Because God Wars was a world full of things that were still unknown..
‘Honestly, if it wasn't for Legendary, I wouldn't have had this much trouble..’
And to tell the truth, if this quest had nothing to do with the Legendary level quest, I wouldn't have done it this way, no matter how much of a hassle the Explorer's Guild was..
No, there would have been no need to deal with the Explorers Guild in the first place..
I should have ignored it and just developed the character..
In other words, the beginning of this dog's suffering was a legendary level quest, and a dog carrying it..
‘Just pretend it's no big deal. I'm going to eat Boshintang.’
After organizing the plan in his head, Midas returned to the main topic..
“Quest Window.”
After activating NPC Haydn's research quest window, I looked at the quest details in detail again..
‘Is there any hidden information??’
Didn't see anything special.
‘Well, there's no way you can see everything.’
However, Midas was not very disappointed by that fact..
‘It's a miracle that we even came this far.’
Isn't it unthinkable that we've come this far in just one day of playing the game??
In such a situation, if you want something more, it would be greed..
‘Even God wouldn't let me eat that much raw food..’
Therefore, Midas was determined to do this on his own, even if it was difficult and difficult..
‘Where to find a tree struck by lightning······.’
With that determination in mind, I looked at the village of beginning and the forest of monsters surrounding it..
‘huh?’
At that time, Midas saw something strange in his eyes..
‘Why is the light coming from there??’
It was a miracle given to him by God..
8.
“Uh, hello.”
Yol, he frowned the moment he saw the player's face greeting him..
‘Damn, why is he?’
Midas, today was the moment when the real customer who had been bothering Yool the most appeared..
“I guess you're getting off work.?”
“Uh, yeah.”
For Yool, it is the happiest time of the day..
Absolutely the worst moment.
“What's going on more than that??”
In that situation, Yool asked a question bluntly..
“I want to receive the quest reward. Shit, I literally lost a whole month's pay because of this..”
Midas' answer to that question was full of dissatisfaction and irritation..
“You can go in?”
And the following question.
In fact, the question was one that could not be ignored..
Yol's role is to prevent or supervise players' reckless access to NPC Haydn..
However, they just let Midas into Haydn's house like this.?
At the very least, even if you let them in, you also have to go in with them..
“Ah, yes. Please go in.”
However, Yol let Midas in alone..
‘I want to shift quickly.’
The fact that it was now Yol's time off from work and the fact that she had already gotten into trouble with Midas today, those two facts did not even allow Yol to worry about..
thud!
While Yol was on the sidelines, Midas entered NPC Haydn's house..
‘No one wants to work overtime during work hours..’
Of course, this was also the timing Midas was aiming for..
From the beginning, Midas had planned with Yol's work time in mind..
Also, this wasn't the first time someone did something like this..
‘The blind spot of the Explorer's Guild is that there is no administrator to manage the administrators..’
The manager of the explorer guild is definitely a scary person..
But in the end, they are people too..
A person who is not subject to any kind of supervision or management and merely receives work along with a salary..
So how faithful are they to their duties??
In a world without CCTV, work cards, and smartphones?
What is clear is that there are more people who do not follow the manual than those who follow it..
Of course, if you do too much, you will be fired, but in general, it was inevitable that there would be gaps in behavior..
‘Now, let’s wrap it up.?’
Those were the gaps that Midas had to pass through to survive in a world infested with tigers..
“I brought you what you asked for.”
Midas, he stood in front of NPC Haydn and spoke to him, and Haydn was surprised at his words and nodded..
“I never thought I would actually bring it. That's amazing!”
[I gave Haydn a piece of wood that had been struck by lightning..]
Then I heard a notification.
“Hehe, I never thought I would be able to make the medicine that Master left behind in this way. Just wait a moment.”
With that notification, NPC Haydn began making something using a medicine bowl..
An anxious look began to appear on Midas' face as he watched the scene..
‘If it gets too long, it gets boring..’
I definitely made time.
But the time earned was not very long.
If Yol or the next manager who replaces him comes in, there will be trouble..
‘Do it quickly, quickly.’
Haydn, who had no way of knowing how Midas felt, slowly made medicine using a medicine bowl..
How much time has passed?
“That's it. Receive it. It might be helpful..”
At that moment I heard a notification.
[You have obtained medicine made from a tree struck by lightning..]
[You have achieved Haydn's Helper title..]
[Runes will be given as a reward.]
Upon hearing the notification, Midas opened the door and came out without even looking back..
“huh?”
Then, another manager who came on behalf of Yol was seen frozen as he tried to grab the door handle..
Midas asked the new manager..
“Did the manager go earlier??”
“Yes, by the way?”
“Oh yeah?
”
The new manager tilted his head at those words..
“Shall I call you??”
“No, thanks. I don't even know your name. Then, have a good time at work.”
When told to work hard, the manager said with a lively smile.
“Yes, thank you for always using the Explorers Guild..”
The moment Midas heard those words, he smiled..
‘I didn't tell you.’
He answered with a smile and a cheerful voice..
“Yes, I will use it often.”
‘Okay, now it's finally the end..’
With that answer, Midas moved to put an end to this matter..
9.
When you buy a lottery ticket, no matter how much you don't have expectations, your heart starts to get excited when the drawing time comes..
and think.
What to do if you win the lottery?
‘Oh, how much will this cost??’
That's how Midas felt right now..
No, it wasn't at the level of waiting to win..
‘If it's an item, you won't get any value due to the level limit, but if it's a legendary, you'll get the basic 10 million units, and if it's a skill card... Wow..’
First of all, it feels like visiting the bank with a lottery ticket that is guaranteed to win at least second place..
‘I'm so excited about this that I'm logged out due to heart problems.?’
Midas walked slowly with such feelings in mind..
Kiing······.
What stopped Midas in his tracks was the pitiful moan of a dying dog..
Such a dog did not run away when Midas visited, but instead just fell limp like a corpse..
‘come.’
Midas' gaze was directed at the yellow question mark above the dog's head..
At this moment, Midas' heart no longer trembled..
Rather, he had a look of determination on his face..
‘Yes, the only thing that comes out is a skill card. Let’s pay off some debt with the Legendary Skill Card. Let’s turn my life around too.’
An expression created by an earnest wish.
‘God, you've helped me so far, so please give me one more kick. Let's take a look at the legendary golden card!’
With that expression on his face, he prayed to God and took out the medicine he received from NPC Haydn from his item inventory..
After that, I sprinkled the medicine on my palm and held it out in front of the limp dog's nose..
Kiing?
The dog tilted its head at that fact and sniffed! After smelling it, he immediately started licking Midas' palm..
At that moment, the question mark above the dog's head became an exclamation point..
And then I heard a notification.
[The nameless wolf is getting better..]
[The nameless wolf quest begins.]
[This is a legendary level quest..]
[You have achieved the legendary starting title..]
[Runes will be given as a reward.]
[The God you serve takes note of your accomplishments..]
[A dragon meant only for war gives you a chance.]
The notifications kept popping up so hard that my ears were deafening..
But Midas was not interested in such facts..
‘Is it an item? Is it a skill card??’
I am only interested in the rewards that can be obtained through this legendary quest..
A message was heard through the ears of Midas..
[The nameless wolf serves you as its master..]
[Achieved the title of Master of Divine Beasts.]
[Runes will be given as a reward.]
‘huh? Shinsu?’
Shinsu.
Along with those words, a word appeared above Midas' head..
‘That's not a deal.?’
The word non-transactionable.
