Chapter 18 (1/2)
”Huuuuu”
Sas pouring like rain from my face
I keptfor four hours Especially in a place as uncomfortable and eerie as Tunnel 99
I had to remain completely focused the whole tiot a critical hit from Deathworm, it was instant death
Even so, I still got a lot of injuries during that tiest potions to heal myself
But I gained a lot in the process too
'Skill confirmation'
[Continuous Slash: Intermediate level 4, 86]
[Combo (Under 40): Intermediate level 3, 41]
'It would be great if I could just raise combo to intermediate level 6'
If I do well, I think it ht be possible
But this was it for today Otherwise, Deathworht end up dead
But Deathworh so I had to feed him 6 of them
Which means, his HP was at least 300,000
Well, that was the specialty of the Deathworm I kneays His , but he survived on his toughness and ginormous HP
That is why he is also the best opponent to practice combo
'Should I have bought more potions?'
Either way, he'll be lively again by tomorrow Then I will be able to reap the worth of those six potions properly
I left Deathworm and headed back to Tunnel 7
I could hear the sound of the pickaxe
Clang Clang Clang
It was definitely different than yesterday I could sense the strength behind each hit
Jonnan was no longer yelling either Instead, he just squatted in the back and took apart the smaller rocks that Jul Goo broke off to find the sellable minerals
It was clearly effective!
I should really thank Deathwor and he works as a motivation for Jul Goo
But the effect on Jul Goo is only temporary It is because of his fear of Deathwor he doesn't want to do That much is clear
So time
Then what do I have to do to keep it going?
Instead of fear, I need to instill passion inside of hioal?
Of course I know the answer I knohat Jul Goo is weak against
”Jul Goo, are you working hard?”
I made my presence known as I stepped into Tunnel 7
Jul Goo stoppedand quickly bowed
”Master, you have arrived”
It was an extreerated welcome
The way he looked at me showed that he was full of fear
Jonnan also stopped working and came over to check for any injuries on my body
”Oh, you are back! Are you hurt anywhere?”
”I am completely fine”
”Just give up Tunnel 99 is not soht really end up dying!”
”It's not easy It would be easier if Jul Goo would help ood task for you? Let's go hunt ether”
The extremely surprised Jul Goo quickly lifted up the pickaxe
”Whaat? It's so fun! Why would you say it is not fit for me?”
He then struck down ainst the boulder He was even adding some commentary as he went
Clang- Clang-
”Wow, this is so refreshi+ng! I can feelaway Oh yeah!”
I couldn't help but laugh while watching him
I'll stophimself
So I started to take Jul Goo's side a bit
”I guess Jul Goo is a better fit for ht Elder, what do you think?”
”I'm not sure He's completely different than yesterday Today, he is actually working pretty hard”
”Jul Goo, do you really want to keep ?”
”Of course This is really fun Perfect job for me”
Clang- Clang-
”Whatever you say You can succeed in anything if you do it with fun If you keep working hard like that, I will find you a bride”
Jul Goo suddenly stoppedHe then looked at iant marbles
”B……bride?”
As I expected The slave trader wasn't lying when he said he was a lecher
No! If a healthy young man didn't lust after a woman, that would be really weird
”Why? Is there soht, elder?”
”Of course! If the owner is willing, they could even be married ten times”
As I asked Jonnan, he played along right away
He even laughed a bit He seeht onto my plan
He's a sharp one, that's for sure
”Hold on a minute Jul Goo, how old are you this year?”
As I asked, Jul Goo quickly responded with sparkling eyes
”Eighteen years old”
That's it? I thought he was easily over 20 years old
I guess he suffered through all sorts of things as a slave since he was young No wonder he aged so much visually
”Even if you do it late, you need to get married before you are thirty If you are too old, woet married before you turn 25”
”Heh~”
Jul Goo's lips were open really wide I couldn't tell because it was dark, but it looked like he was al
This lecherous punk
”Are you that happy that I said I'll get you married?”
”Yes master Jul Goo wants to be married Hehe”
”Let's rade your sincerity once a her than 90 every month, I will find you a wife the day you turn 25”
”Are, are you serious?”
”I proe ceremony as well as provide you with money to start your family In order to be the head of a household and lead a family, you will need at least 200,000,000 won to start”
”Gasp! Master! Thank you!”
Jul Goo bowed much further than before If he had bowed out of fear earlier, this ti sincere
He really didn't have a reason to thankhim extremely hard
”In return, you have to work hard Every tie back by two months Do you understand?”
”Yes I ork hard, master!”
Jul Goo's voice was full of vigor
Of course, the effect of this won't last that long Hue their mind day by day
If I say the right things at those times, I should still be able to use him for quite a while
Of course, I will get him married as I promised
I stood in front of the ates of Tunnel 99
