Chapter 26: Family
Damn, how did you forget about this stubble!
Looking at the IOU in his hand, Wei Juncai suddenly remembered that in the anime, Hestia begged Hephaestus for several days to let her create the Hestian Blade in order to get a good weapon for Bell.
For this reason, Hestia also owed Hephaestus a huge debt of 200 million Wallis.
Looking at the beginning of the two words on the IOU and the series of zeros at the end, Wei Jun was shocked and slightly relieved at the same time.
"It's just...... Is 200 million Wallis owed? Well, it's not like you can't afford to work hard a little harder. ”
The corners of Wei Jun's mouth twitched slightly, and he said.
According to Wei Jun's current monopoly business in Olalie, with a little effort, he should be able to repay this debt in a few years.
"What!? Two...... 200 million Wallis owed!!! ”
"Liar, don't you!!!"
When the girls heard Wei Jun's words, they ran behind Wei Jun in disbelief, and their eyes widened and focused on the IOU in Wei Jun's hand, as if they were going to see what was good from the IOU.
Even Aunt Mia in the tavern walked over from the tavern with a frown when she heard the movement here.
After hearing Wei Jun's words, Hestia glanced at Wei Jun with a look of shame and speechlessness, lowered his head, and didn't dare to make a sound again.
Xi'er, who was standing next to Wei Jun, only glanced at the IOU and read out the specific numbers on it.
He was stunned with shock, and after carefully confirming the last time, Xi'er's expression instantly froze.
Turning her head a little snort, Xi'er spoke to Wei Jun.
"That...... Joon, the number on the IOU seems to be more than 200 million Wallis......"
"Huh?! Could it be, is it two billion! Hiss~~~~"
Looking at the IOU in his hand, Wei Jun gasped.
But when you think about it, this figure is not unreasonable.
The weapon in front of me is a weapon made from the super-rare metal Mithril.
Although Mithril is a material that appears frequently in many novels and anime, the metal is about to be used up and become worthless.
But is that really the value of Mithril?
There are only two kinds of top-quality metals in the world, one is Olihagang, and the other is Mithril.
Orehagan didn't say much about it, the material of the indestructible weapon, a hardest refined metal that surpassed super-hard metal.
Use a weapon that Oliha has just crafted, and it has the attribute of [Never Destroy] and will never be damaged.
And Mithril, [as strong as dragon scales, light as a feather] This is its most intuitive evaluation.
However, Mithril's true value lies in its affinity and malleability with magic.
In addition, this knife is the only one in the world, and it is a weapon that only Hephaestus, the god of forging, can create.
Although Hephaestus, who sealed the divine power, could no longer create an artifact, the weapon in front of him was definitely a weapon more precious than an artifact for Wei Jun.
The reason is simple, this weapon is a growth weapon, and it will grow with the owner.
Maybe it's not as precious to other adventurers as it seems.
That's because the growth of adventurers in this world has limitations, and being able to become an adventurer with lv.5 and lv.6 is already the sky.
But Wei Jun is different, he is a time-traveler with infinite possibilities.
He can travel through all worlds, but his limitations are not just a small Oulalie, but even this world.
In Wei Jun's eyes, a weapon that is enough to grow with its owner is worth far more than an artifact.
Although these two billion Wallis are a little more, they are not unacceptable.
"That...... Joon, it seems that the number above is more than two billion Wallis......"
After sweeping back and forth between Wei Jun and Hestia with complicated eyes, Xi'er sighed faintly.
"Ha ??!!!!!!"
Hearing Xi'er's reminder, Wei Jun's body suddenly rose with a chill.
Staring at the IOU in his hand with a trembling right hand, Wei Jun turned his head to look at Xi'er with a stiff face, squeezed out an ugly smile with difficulty, and asked.
"Could it be...... Two...... Billion!!? ”
Looking at Wei Jun's crying face, Xi'er said with a smile, "Jun, I also hope this is not true, but the number on the IOU ...... It's really 20 billion! ”
The girls behind Wei Jun who confirmed everything they could finally came to the conclusion that the number on the IOU could really blind their eyes.
Two Billion Wallis!!!
A weapon, sky-high figures, they only feel that their three views are ruined.
Even Aunt Mia, who was standing at the door of the tavern, shook her head again and again, covered her head and walked into the tavern without bearing to look at it.
"20 billion ......"
Hearing this number in Xi'er's mouth, Wei Jun only felt that his eyes were dark, and the darkness gradually swallowed his vision, and a feeling of the world spinning came one after another.
Xi'er on the side hurriedly supported Wei Jun, and the girls behind Wei Jun were also startled.
"Joon! Are you alright, cheer up!! ”
Wei Jun didn't seem to hear the call of Xi'er and the girls.
Leaning on Xi'er's arms, Wei Jun took a deep breath and stared at the IOU in his hand.
Once, twice, three times......
After confirming it over and over again, Wei Jun counted it nearly ten times like a magic barrier, and finally accepted this indisputable fact.
"It's not scientific! A dagger only costs 200 million Wallis, why does it become 20 billion when it comes to me, isn't this really a random offer! ”
Wei Jun wants to cry, really wants to cry!
I haven't been a tyrant for a month, and now I've become a poor guy with a huge amount of arrears!?
This change of identity came too suddenly, and he was not mentally prepared!!
Crying with a sad face, facing the huge amount of arrears in front of him, Wei Jun felt that his whole person was not good.
"That...... Handsome...... Actually, this is just my personal IOU, you don't need to worry about it. ”
"Huh!?"
Hearing Hestia's words, Wei Jun's frustrated brows couldn't help but furrow.
Seeing this, Hestia thought that Wei Jun didn't believe it, so he was busy explaining to him.
"It's true! Hephaestus also said that this account would not involve my family, and that Joon had no need to bear the arrears.
In fact, I can see that after all, this is Hephaestus's strategy, and it shouldn't be so expensive......
I'm afraid that my friend has some kind of ghost idea, or to make me work hard, and forcibly broke such an excuse.
Anyway, I'll pay off the debt myself.
I will work hard and use all the wages I earn to pay off this arrears, no matter how many years I work, I will definitely pay it off!
No! Please let me pay off this debt myself!
It's a gift I want to give to Joon personally, and if Joon helps me pay off my debts, it will become meaningless. ”
Wei Jun glanced at Hestia, who was explaining to him with a serious face, sighed, leaned over, and picked up the knife in the wooden box.
Unexpected!
The knife that originally required two adventurers to lift with great effort was easily picked up by Wei Jun.
Raising the knife and putting it under the sun to take a closer look, Wei Jun turned his head to Hestia and spoke.
"It seems that you still didn't listen to what I said earlier."
"Huh?"
"To put it another way. You asked for this knife for me, so this debt has a major relationship with me.
I also told you earlier that you are my family. The so-called family members are blessed and enjoy hardships, not too much.
As a family, I have the responsibility and obligation to shelter you from the wind and rain.
Not to mention the 20 billion arrears, even 200 billion, I will not run away from 2 trillion.
I will certainly bear this debt with you.
What's more, don't underestimate my ability to make money, my previous method of making money was just a small way.
When I have the ability to start other ways to make money, we will definitely be able to pay off this debt in a short time.
And ah!
Even if it's just occasionally, if you can choose to rely on me, trust me, I'll be happy. ”
After saying that, Wei Jun turned his head and smiled at Hestia.
"Hmm!!! Joon~~"
Listening to Wei Jun's heartfelt words, the girls around couldn't help but be moved.
Hestia, as the party concerned, was even more moved and threw herself into Wei Jun's arms and cried.
"Thank you, thank you really, Joon. It's good enough for me to meet you! ”
"Ah, so do I."
Wei Jun touched Hestia's little head and smiled back.
The surrounding ladies looked at each other and smiled, and silently retreated into the tavern, leaving the space for the two of them.
Let Hestia cry in his arms for a while, Wei Juncai patted her and said.
"It's time to stop crying for so long, and if you keep crying, it's going to become ugly."
Hestia listened, quickly wiped the tears from her face, and lowered her head a little shyly, "I'm sorry, Jun, I let you see the joke again." ”
Wei Jun smiled at her and shook his head, looked at the knife in his hand, and asked, "By the way, have you named this knife?" ”
"Hey! Not yet. After all, this is Jun's weapon, and I think it's better to have Jun named it. ”
In fact, Hestia originally wanted to name this knife after her god, but when facing Wei Jun, she found that she couldn't seem to open this mouth.
"It's up to me, okay. Originally, I was going to call it the Blade of the Infernal Bloodbrake, but if you think about it, it's better to call it the Blade of Hestia. Still, you wouldn't suggest a name for it, would you? ”
Looking at the stunned Hestia in front of him, Wei Jun asked with a smile.
"Yes! Of course not!!!! ”
Coming back to her senses, Hestia smiled at Wei Jun with surprise and excitement.
Picking up the sword gate and Hestia's blade on the ground, Wei Jun beckoned Hestia into the tavern.
As soon as the two entered the tavern, the girls who were still discussing stopped talking, and their eyes turned to Wei Jun and Hestia with a smile on their faces.
Seeing this Wei Jun was nothing, but Hestia couldn't help but be a little embarrassed.
The days that followed seemed to be back to the way they were.
Hestia, who had changed into overalls, had a smile on her face when she started working.
The girls who worked with Hestia also talked and laughed with Hestia as usual, and everyone tacitly agreed not to mention the previous things, as if they had never happened.
After all, it was a matter for the Hestian family, and they really didn't want to say anything, and talking too much would only make Hestia embarrassed.
However, in private, the girls secretly found Wei Jun and 'lent' the wages they had earned over the years to Wei Jun.
Don't look at the girls who will worry about some small money on weekdays, but secretly they are hidden little rich women.
The savings of the girls ranged from hundreds of thousands of Wallis to millions of Wallis, and the savings of more than a dozen girls added up to tens of millions.
Although the girls borrowed it verbally, what was the difference between the money and giving it to Wei Jun.
If Hestia and Wei Jun, who owe this huge amount of arrears, really want to accept it, will they be able to pay it back to each other.
Wei Jun naturally couldn't accept this money, but Wei Jun kept the other party's intentions in mind.
Wei Jun and the girls have known each other for less than two months.
But this is not a long-term friendship, but they can use all their savings to help Wei Jun when he is in the most difficult time.
If this matter was put on someone else, Wei Jun would even wonder if the other party had some impure purpose.
But the girls were different, and Wei Jun could feel that they really wanted to help him.
This intention Wei Jun will silently keep in his heart, and he will return it a thousand times in the future.
Since returning to the tavern, Wei Jun has been practicing in the courtyard behind the tavern with the Hestian Blade in hand.
This cool weapon will definitely accompany you for the rest of your life. It is necessary for Wei Jun to get acquainted with his future partner in a short period of time.
Yes, buddy!
Wei Jun could clearly feel that this weapon had its own soul, in professional terms, it was a weapon with a machine spirit!
After an afternoon of research, Wei Jun also had a general understanding of the Hestian Blade.
Although he didn't know when this weapon recognized itself as the main one, Wei Jun was sure that it had already branded itself.
Just like the one who held the dagger in the anime, Bell recognized the owner without knowing it.
Now that this Hestian blade is in Wei Jun's hands, it is a divine weapon that sharpens iron like clay. If it leaves Wei Jun's side, it will become a blunt knife that weighs three or four hundred catties and can't even cut an apple.
What is the concept of three or four hundred catties?
Guan Erye's Qinglong Yanyue Knife is only eighty-two catties, but Wei Jun's Hestian Blade weighs more than three hundred catties, not to mention that the ancient catties are not equal to the modern ones.
After practicing with the Hestian Blade in the courtyard for most of the day, Wei Jun finally switched the feeling of training with the wooden sword in the past to the Hestian Blade.
At night, under the reminder and persuasion of Hestia and Xi'er, Wei Jun stopped sweating.
After eating dinner and washing up, Wei Jun suppressed the anxiety and excitement in his heart, and forced himself to sleep early.
Tomorrow is the day he enters the dungeon, and he needs to make sure that he will be in a good state of mind to face the fierce monsters of the dungeon.
Holding the Hestian Blade to sleep, Wei Jun fell asleep unconsciously.
