After this, Xinghe went to the Adventurer's Guild alone.

However, as soon as he arrived, he saw a long line of adventurers at the reception of Kret.

Xinghe also lined up along the back of the line.

Xinghe, who had been waiting for a while, suddenly noticed that the counter lady next door took down the "resting" sign and motioned to his team, "Please here, please".

The adventurer, who had been in third place, stepped forward and was about to go over there when his body suddenly froze, and then returned to the row of Kret.

(What's the matter, the adventurer's face is a little embarrassed...... ）

The face of the counter lady was full of smiles, and there was nothing wrong with it.

The next moment, she beckoned to Xinghe, and the meaning couldn't be more obvious.

"Huh? Ah——!h

Krett suddenly panicked, and shouted out again in a gaffe.

(This、There is busy...... ）

Although Xinghe didn't understand, he walked to the counter lady next to Kerette without thinking.

"Welcome to Mr. Galaxy. Is there anything that helps today? ”

"Yes, I'd like to ask you to buy this material."

The counter lady reviewed the material.

"Got it, then I'll recycle your guild card first."

She suddenly remembered something.

"Mr. Xinghe, congratulations on your promotion to the D rank."

(This is ...... What's going on? ）

"Maybe you haven't reacted yet.

It just so happens that the rookie hunter has been successfully defeated by you. ”

(Looks like the guild has a big bounty on those guys...... ）

"Sadly, most of the rookie adventurers, some of the hard-core adventurers have also fallen victim to this incident.

Therefore, Mr. Xinghe's merits this time can be said to be an incalculable level.

That, here's the money for the materials, and the bounty for the rookie hunters.

Please keep it away. ”

In addition to the purchase amount of the materials, the counter lady handed another thirty gold coins to Xinghe.

The thirty gold coins are the share of the galaxy, and the guild will also give the thirty gold coins to Nina and Rena each.

"Then I'll thank you for Rena and Nina first.

Oh yes, and this, if you don't mind, please try it with Miss Coolette. ”

Xinghe took out the potato chips, which were very popular last time, and this time handed the counter lady a food that had been fried in bite-sized bread and sprinkled with sugar and honey.

(Just experiment on whether it tastes good or not...... ）

"Thank you so much, Mr. Xinghe.

I'll be sure to enjoy it with all of you. ”

At this time, the ladies at the other counters were staring at the galaxy with sharp eyes and talking to them.

When she saw the happy appearance of the counter lady, Krett pursed her mouth and said, "That's mine~", and then received the adventurers in line with a teary expression.

……

Wait for Galaxy to leave the counter.

Some of the young ladies are saying "It's great~", but more are saying "I want it too!" And "Give it back!" Something like that.

(Seems to have been a success...... But don't look back yet. ）

At the built-in table of the Adventurer's Guild, Xinghe saw Laled eating there.

"Yes sir, if you don't have a skill on your dagger, you can give it to me first.

I recently met an alchemist and asked him for help. ”

Xinghe said this verbally, but in fact, he didn't know any so-called alchemists, but because he was taken care of by Lalid, he decided to give him skills.

Lalid, who was accosted by Xinghe, seemed a little excited.

"Really!"

Lalid was so happy that the bread in his mouth squirted at Xinghe's face before he could swallow it.

The next moment, he handed the Damascus dagger and the complete magic jade of tier 4 to the galaxy.

(Should I give the "HP Absorption" or "MP Absorption" skill...... ）

Laled was annoyed for a moment.

However, in the end, he decided to choose the "HP Absorption" skill.

Oh? When Xinghe took it, he didn't forget to tease Lalid.

"Give me your weapon so easily?

Well, I'll just take your things and run away, why, aren't you afraid? ”

Lalid still looks like he was just now.

"I believe in my vision and skills."

(Skill ......?) Oh, "good deeds are rewarded".

It is to sell more favors to others, and the luck that returns to oneself will also be followed by the increase in inherent skills. ）

"By the way, Xinghe, and in three days, I'm scheduled to dive into the labyrinth, so before that, can I have time to attach skills?"

"Okay, I know, then you can come at this time the day after tomorrow, and I'll bring it when the time comes."

- Two days later.

After the Galaxy completed the investigation, he handed over the Damascus dagger to Lalid with the skill by the way.

As soon as he accepted the dagger, Laled said that he wanted to hurry up and try his skills, and then rushed out of the adventurer's guild with "ahahaha".

After all, this time the Adventurer's Guild only handed over the dagger back to Lalid, and there was nothing to handle or recycle.

Galaxy followed suit and left the Adventurer's Guild.

But when I was walking on the street, the usual sound came into my ears again.

"That little brother over there, I, I'm a werewolf, and I'm the most suitable for coolies.

I'm also very confident in my physical abilities! So as long as you buy me, I'm willing to do anything! ”

"Little brother, little brother, compared to the kind of sub-people who don't like it, it's better to buy me~ I will serve you well~"

"None of them can do it, just look at me......"

……

Slaves of all kinds are full of energy, talking about their strengths and selling themselves.

The price of slaves is displayed on the side of the road, which is quite cheap.

The minimum amount is only one gold coin.

The highest is sold for 10 gold coins.

Ignoring the slaves who were struggling to sell, Xinghe walked straight ahead.

“…………”

From the iron cage, the dark fairy girl who was looking at this side with one eye met the eyes of the galaxy again.

The dark fairy girl's eyes were still the same, lifeless and without highlights.

(The clothes are still so tattered...... ）

When Xinghe took a closer look, he found that there was not only a scar on his left eye and neck, but also from his collarbone to the left side of his chest.

"You...... Why are you still alive? ”

This is the first time Xinghe has spoken to the dark fairy girl

(The movements are subtle...... ）

Galaxy could sense the dark fairy girl's ears reacting to what she was saying.

(Can you hear me...... That's good. ）

"Obviously you don't have the strength to live, why do you have to live so strongly?"

“… Not...... Woo...... I. ”

"You don't think it's naïve that as long as you wait, someone kind will lend a hand?"

The dark fairy girl's eyes regained some emotion slightly, and the emotion that was clearly revealed was anger.

"With a product like yours, I don't think anyone will want to buy you.

And if you continue like this, you may be sent to a more demanding place for a year, oh no, half a year, and you will be sold at a lower price.

I don't know why you're here for sale, but it's probably your parents' hands.

Your parents are really scum-"

Miscellaneous! Xinghe's unfinished words were interrupted by a shrill babbling.

(I get upset when I see this guy......

Guys like us, no matter how much we wait, will never be happy...... ）

"Babble-ahhh

The Dark Fairy Maiden had been sitting in the iron cage until now, but now she had put her hand out of the gap in the iron bar, as if she was trying to grab the galaxy.

"Haha, if you can still lose your temper, it means that there is still salvation.

That old man, let this slave out, she, I bought it. “

"Oh, have you been discovered, it's really amazing."

The old man behind Xinghe was suddenly named by Xinghe, but he responded with no surprise.

The Dark Elf Maiden was a little overwhelmed at this point, as if it was caused by the sudden appearance of the slave trader in this shop.

After all, in normal times, this old man was in the shop to discuss business with nobles, and it was quite rare to appear in front of this kind of store where countless slaves were displayed.

……

The dark fairy girl who was released was taken into the reception room of the store with Xinghe.

After a moment of silence, the slave trader walked in.

(Look at it like this, the werewolves standing behind him should be his guards)

"Look, how much does this slave cost?"

"—five hundred."

"What do you say?"

"I said, "Five hundred gold coins."

Xinghe had noticed the slaves displayed on the roadside, and the more expensive slaves only cost seven gold coins.

The old man was undoubtedly a profiteer's offer, which made Xinghe's gaze at him sharpen.

Five hundred gold coins, not intended to be a ridiculous offer.

But the old slave trader's smile was not guilty.

Xinghe glared at the old man, successfully confirming his status chart.

Among the skills, there are "Arithmetic LV5", "Deception LV3", "Negotiation LV5", "Appraisal LV7", and "Analysis LV3".

And not only that, but he also has an inherent skill called "Identification Eye".

The old man continued to add with a smile.

"I think you'll be surprised, and rightly so.

However, the slave was fourteen years old, still virgin, and of a dark goblin race.

In a slave auction, even if it costs 500 gold coins, this level of goods may still be very cheap.

I think you should know that the dark elves have a lot of magic and a long life, so even if they are used as sex slaves, they are very popular. ”

Xinghe pointed to the dark fairy girl next to him.

"I guess there's a scar on my face and throat."

"Hehe, these are all small things, as long as you ask someone who can use divine magic, you can heal those small injuries."

"Uncle, you're really interesting......

Seeing that Xinghe's expression was wrong, the old man decided to shift the target of the topic from the slave to himself.

"If it's Lord Xinghe, a D-class adventurer, it's not money that can't be paid."

Galaxy had just been promoted to Tier D two days earlier.

(I see...... Even in this world, are merchants' weapons intelligence...... ）

Realizing that this old man was not simple, Xinghe also raised his wariness of him.

"Oh, if it were an ordinary person, it would be surprising here......

So, I won't sell this slave for five hundred gold coins, which is considered a discounted price, one hundred and thirteen gold coins, what do you think?

Of course, if she only sells 113 gold coins, I will definitely lose a lot of money, so you will need to come and pay 10% interest every month.

It is rumored that the average D-class adventurer can earn about twenty-seven to thirty-five gold coins a month, so this is definitely not money that cannot be paid.

Well, it's definitely a good deal. ”

The old man said on the premise of paying in installments.

Because he didn't think that one hundred and thirteen gold coins Xinghe could cash out immediately.

(Pay 10% interest every month?) If you can only afford the interest, the interest alone will cost about 135 coins a year. The interest rate is more than 120%, and this old man is too good at. ）

Xinghe is very puzzled, can this kind of fractional price be regarded as a trick?

It seems that in this world, there are really only a few people who can do simple calculations.

And is the average D-class adventurer really able to net the money he says he says on average every month?

After deducting the cost of accommodation, consumables, equipment maintenance, etc., there are only about a dozen gold coins left at most.

(To put it bluntly, this old man is planning to squeeze the interest for a lifetime...... ）

"Uncle, you're so good."

"You guy!"

One of the werewolf guards placed the grip of the weapon on his hand, but this was stopped by another guard.

The urgency of the atmosphere made the dark fairy girl's face pale.

"Hehe, so Mr. Xinghe, what do you mean by that?"

"You're a lot old, and you're full of lies.

You say she's worth 500 gold coins?

If you had that value, you wouldn't have put her on the side of the street, but would have treated her the same as the high-ranking slaves in the store. ”

"Unfortunately, the rooms inside are full—"

The old man was about to make an excuse, but Xinghe opened his mouth for a while.

"You said the wound could be cured with the Holy Demon Healing.

Why don't you heal it?

Let me explain why.

Because if you want to heal your wounds with the Holy Demon Heal, you will be asked to donate a large amount.

It's really not worth it, look at this dark goblin.

She couldn't even eat enough, and she couldn't speak properly because of the injuries to her throat and eyes, and she also had problems with her sense of distance and proximity.

You say that high magic power is attractive, but where is the charm of dark elves who can't use magic? ”

"This, this is actually ......"

Sweat gradually appeared on the old man's forehead.

This time, both guards put their hands on the grips of their weapons.
