“For this work I’ll need a tool…”

Weed, using his blacksmith skills created a pickaxe with ahigh-quality ain so there was no loss

klang! klang! Klang!

Weed’s digging was top notch Endless hours slipped away

He had been digging the ground for at least a day but there was no Helium

“shi+t!”

Weed while continuing to use the pickaxe was reflecting and feeling full of anger for being so stupid

There were a huge variety of ways to raise skill stats with drudgery Digging in the ground did allow you to earn the o

“I auard for that moment and his heart felt despondent…so he just needed to work harder He could make a sculpture to increase his stats for the day but they would only go up once

“If I only had a few months to mine what I wished out of the earth…”

With thatskills would become useful!

Minerals, by the way, are consumed by a sculptor and blacks at least once

After the skill was generated,Weed had ihtly reduced the consue the pickaxe could dig

But this was a big

“I guess I should slightly i Mithril made a plow for Yellowy

“It’s all about the people close to you With my support you can eat a lot But, you can’t just eat for freeIf you work diligently you’ll get two coppers each day”

Food… for the sake of eating Yellowy allowed Weed to harness hiood care of me You don’t usebribes was a sure way to use Yellowy to increase the efficiency of the operation However, the s

“Sculpture Transformation!”

The Orc has a lot of work ive it a try! Chwiik!”

In the undead state, there were two advantages, infinite stath, Orcs were better

An Orc’s norant and blindly moved on instinct alone When transformed into such an uncivilized tribe he would not be able to take advantage ofthe Orc Karichwi allowedto beco that for for Helium

“I’ll just have to have hope and eat a lotto eat sooner, since they were dra stamina they had to eat constantly Since he couldn’t really eat Yellowy he’d have to find other ways to keep it within reasonable limits

He did not knoas his sweat ran down his whole body Ignoring the beat was of course key, only finding joy in the

“When you dig, money comes out,

food comes out, rice comes out

When Helium comes out, it’s a jackpot

Spend it on delicious food? Of course not, it’s such a waste

A song of love forand it was now possible to see and deterskill proficiency Weed’s strength and perseverance stats were also phenoh levels they would plainly give you an advantage as you dig in theup a lot of ore Gotta earn ether Weed and Yellowy keep digging

In between his hunting and adventuring in Jigolaths, Lee Hyun had his midterm exams at Korean University

The second se with the fall leaves the winter break was co forward to it

“Tuition really is less The last few days have disappeared so quickly it’s like they were throay”

Lee Hyun alking with his backpack slung on drooping shoulders Although he trained everyday in the studio, his shoulders were the result of thinking too deeply aboutwas about one thing; tales of when they had been young too

“The Hidden potential thatis impossible if they take heart to do it You can literally feel the cells co alive one by one when they want to live between the border of life and death”

Like describing life in a jungle, you’d have to say that there a person’s life is under constant threat from animals and insects

“hello sir”

In Korean University, Lee Hyun only needed to walk and Martial Arts students would greet him politely and bow Even the seniors would bow respectfully, but Lee Hyun didn’t feel aard about it

The disciples where for and they would encounter each other at the sa respect and would bow their head to Lee Hyun according to the ranking systeone the talk about him would start

“He is one of the best with a sword… after he beat you didn’t you say he was invincible”

“Coht I would win, then I thought I was going to die for no reason at all The only reason I didn’t was because he just didn’t choose to coot the living crap beaten out of theood reason he learns directly froular student Lee Hyun’s na famous

“I heard he jumped frost the students there were the odd students who enjoy extre the rumours about Lee Hyun’s trip to Europe It was also difficult to hide the fact that at one point he ell known on the internet as the ‘Princess Knight’

“Be quiet I want to receive a scholarshi+p”

Lee Hyun sighed angrily and let it rest

Why was the university so rigid about a perfect attendance, that would be a good question Lee Hyun was just waiting for the tio home quickly after school

But he was a stuck here listening to a professor’s lecture

He was sitting there with a twinkle in his eye

The key to all classes was to understand that you needed to come early and sit at the front of the class with a ‘I want more’ look on your face That basic attitude is ill you get you credit for scholarshi+ps and who knohat else

Underneath Lee Hyun’s fake shell was the fact that he didn’t really study much at school He believed in study in his oay, not the kind that the world believed you needed

He needed most of his time to make money He’ll most likely need to drop out from school at some point anyway

However several of the lectures at the University did have useful international content The trip during the summer when he went to Africa and Europe had opened his eyes to the poverty in the world Even a one year old should be thinking of seed money and the ways he’ll need to invest it

After class began, Seo Yoon passed him a note

[Would you like to drink coffee after class with ht?]

Of course for Lee Hyun, this note was extreet home early and play Royal Road A few days was needed for that body to get accusto and collect e to drink coffee and eat with a woman

It was Lee Hyun’s completely depraved standards

He did not care for either women or extracurricular activities

‘I’ asked fill my belly with coffee’

It’s not nor skills you really should grant even difficult requests

‘Would she kill them?…… is it that sort of business? Golden Bird and Silver Bird are to be used as hostages…or perhaps they’re waiting to ambushwas primarily by note, even if they meet in real life she still would hand Lee Hyun a hand written note She gave him another one

[I want Job’s Tears tea]

After the lecture, Lee Hyun got Seo Yoon’s attention and headed for the vending machines

“That tea is 300 here do I put the 300 won, in here?”

It was croith et coffee When he tried to pull out his coins, Seo Yoon took charge, grabbed his collar and tugged

“What?, they have Job’s Tears tea, don’t you want it now?”

Lee Hyun raised his head, conscious of the stares froed by his collar This meant she wanted to drink at some other place

“Don’t tell me, you don’t want it now?”

He looked at Seo Yoon spending patterns, and took a guess This means a place that ell-decorated, suited for conversation and with a better at habits, this was a clear et hiood for conversation and a nice atmosphere…some sort of a pricy place!

“Don’t tell me…a coffee shop?”

Lee Hyun did not understand why people went to the coffee shop Spending over 3,000 won for coffee was just throwing your …just like it’s not worth drinking a beer with tooso I don’t enjoy the smell When I used to drink it I needed at least three spoons of sugar in it’

Just thinking about it ry, Lee Hyun did not want to pay the price of the overpriced coffee His daily life was better now, but just 2-3 years ago, he did not even have enoughhis collar

Seo Yoon took out her wallet There were ?”

Seo Yoon Nodded

As Seo Yoon was clearly in charge of where they were going, Lee Hyun shook his head and followed her

“People should add so to feel like drinking some coffee in that kind of place”

Seo Yoon gave a written note to the taxi driver for the destination As they rode the taxi it arrived at the foot of a hillside for a five-star hotel where the vieas very good, a faap between rich and poor was made clear to Lee Hyun In the hotel there was a space for a coffee shop and a movie theater

“I can understand why people come all the way out here to drink coffee”

Of course, if you were eating outdoors, it is especially superb if you were eating outside on the deck of a shi+p For coffee too having a good at it thatIf you starve for few days, whatever you eat is going to be delicious”

Lee Hyun muttered certain words but sat down in the coffee shop chair The view frohts froht A waiter laid a menu on the table

“Are you ready to order?”

Lee Hyun wanting so ritten on the menu

Americano 13,000

Hazelnut 13,000

Espresso 13,000

———————–

Herbal Tea 14,000

Iced coffee 14,000

coke 8,000

Fruit juice 15,000

cocktail 19,000

Tax (10), service charge (10)

“Keoeok!”

Taxes and services charge are not included in the listed price, the official price for a cup of coffee was more than 13,000 won One slice of cake with strawberry jam was priced at over ten thousand won, and hard liquors were priced at anything from hundreds of thousands to even over one million won as well

A small meal with a side was around 30,000 to 50,000 won A bottle ofthe tax and service fee Lee Hyun was rapidly gaining the utmost respect for the rich The people who ate dinner at such places were clearly not ordinary hu at thein it”

“Excuseadded”

An expensive coffee that does nothing to fill you up was unfair

Seo Yoon pointed with her finger at the menu entry and ordered a set of coffee and waffles without speaking The warm rich scent of coffee filled the air, pleasantly soft around This was the perfect moment that Seo Yoon wanted to exploit

Since there were people around Seo Yoon found it difficult to speak She really wanted to speak with Lee Hyun Over time she had learned to adjust and was comfortable with him

An attitude with a look froh and that was frustrating For the frequent ed to find ways to be expressive

When she was hungry at the end of a tough battle, he would give her special ive her the delicious and tender parts of the roasted ht, he would take the lead since his defense was high It was difficult to know the warmth of that e a dialogue with Lee Hyun

She opened her mouth and spoke with a lovely voice

“Hey, do you wantnow?”

“I don’t”

“Half Sauce half fried and the other chickens?”

“Didn’t you eat thes have hatched and newborn chicks cainseng”

The conversation was running in completely separate lines
