Episode 49
“You’re leaving out all the neat things that aren’t even in your eight characters.”
Ji-won Lee was busy cleaning from the morning.
Current time is 9:50 am. It’s time to run wild with X in Fate. But today the plan went wrong.
Hyeonseo Lee’s voice was heard from the kitchen.
“The refrigerator is empty. “You’re not even eating properly?”
“You’re not eating well, uncle?”
“No, I was going to go grocery shopping anyway.”
“okay? Then shall we go together? “I also had to go grocery shopping.”
“Will we come together, Uncle?”
A superficial lie actually causes anger.
Ji-won Lee sighed when she saw the mother and daughter talking as if they were teasing. Then I focused on cleaning.
‘You’re so worried.’
Actually, I understood that feeling. Lee Ji-won was the type of person who would see the end when he got immersed in it. It was Lee Hyun-seo who watched Lee Ji-won, who put everything aside and played games like crazy during Lean Online. But Lee Ji-won also matured and got older.
‘It’s not difficult to take care of my own body.’
It wasn’t just words, it was true.
Fate connection time was maintained within the recommended time and it made more profit than the chicken restaurant where he made a living. When Lee Ji-won, who cleaned the room, went out to the living room, Lee Hyun-seo said.
“How long do you plan to rest?”
“what?”
“The store. No matter how much the world has improved, stability is better. It’s not like the store isn’t working… By the way, are you still paying the rent?”
Concerned tone.
Swish. Jiwon Lee threw the rag into the bathroom and sat down at the table.
Hyeonseo Lee sat in front of him.
“Sister, I’m turning 30 the day after tomorrow.”
“I have no intention of stopping you from doing it. “I just asked because I was curious.”
“lie. “It’s written all over your face.”
“Have you noticed? “Dad and Mom know too.”
Dad and Mom know this too?
My parents still lived in a province far from Seoul. They are people who are more interested in the field than in the world… It seems that those parents saw X on TV and immediately recognized him as Lee Ji-won.
Lee Ji-won was inwardly shocked.
‘Huh, I don’t know about Mom, but I feel uncomfortable with Dad…’ Lee
Ji-won, even in college, used to skip classes and go to PC rooms!
Then, there was a time when I was broken by my father. Of course, my father also lost interest after seeing Lee Ji-won open and run a chicken restaurant.
Hyeonseo Lee smiled and sipped coffee.
“I want to let you know that I’m not the only one worried.”
“okay. “You’re over 60 years old, so it’s reasonable to be worried.”
“Hehe, you’ve gotten older too.”
“Why are you laughing?”
“No, it’s because I think time flies so quickly.”
Hyeonseo Lee turned his gaze and looked at the organized house. A capsule placed in one corner of the living room! Hyeonseo Lee looked at the capsule and seemed interested and asked.
“Is that the capsule? “You said it was absolutely necessary for that fate?”
“Oh, it’s pretty big, right?”
“Yeah, it looks really expensive.”
A look that subtly asks the price.
It would be no good to talk about the price of that obnoxiously expensive capsule here. Lee Ji-won avoided Lee Hyun-seo’s gaze. And then he opened his mouth as if he had made up his mind.
“It looks like your worries haven’t gone away.”
“I guess you’re from the past too. Even if you appear on TV and become famous, a game is still a game. All I can think about is this and I worry about what I will do to make a living when my popularity fades later…”
“Follow me. “Because I have something to show you.”
Lee Hyeon-seo, a housewife in her mid-thirties.
It wasn’t strange that she didn’t know much about Fate. What Hyunseo Lee was most worried about was her younger brother’s future. The primal worry is what will happen if Lee Ji-won starves later.
But there’s no need to worry about that, right?
Jiwon Lee sat in front of the computer. Hyeonseo Lee, who followed, asked.
“What are you trying to show me?”
“I’ll show you my salary, no, my daily wage.”
“How much money do you make just by playing games?”
Hyunseo Lee stood with her arms crossed behind the chair with a sour expression on her face. I wasn’t really surprised because I knew that Lee Ji-won was making money even during Lean Online. But soon her eyes widened.
Hyeonseo Lee stuttered after looking at the monitor.
“5,000 won for 1 gold?”
“If you don’t believe me, try searching for it yourself.”
“One hundred and ten million… That’s over 10,000 gold, right?”
“I received gold as a gift after broadcasting only twice so far.”
“You earned 50 million won in just two broadcasts?”
Hyeonseo Lee suffered mental shock. No matter what TV channel I turned on, Fate Fate was on, so I thought it was a popular game. But who would have guessed that such an astronomical amount of money would be exchanged!
Hyeonseo Lee opened his mouth quietly.
“…Jiwon.”
“why? “Are you still worried?”
In response to Lee Ji-won’s question, Lee Hyun-seo quickly shook her head.
“We’ll just eat lunch and then go. No, should I just go now? I guess you came here for no reason and only bothered me. And don’t worry mom and dad, my sister will take care of everything!”
50 million won for two broadcasts!
50 million won was too much money to stop Lee Ji-won because it was an unstable job. I wonder if it might interfere with my ability to play games or even work. Ji-won Lee grinned when she saw Hyun-seo Lee trying to hurriedly leave the house.
‘There are times when it’s too bright and burdensome…’
At the same time, it was Lee Hyun-seo who understood and acknowledged Lee Ji-won the best.
Come on! Jiwon Lee stood up and grabbed his wallet.
He said while stroking his niece Yoon Ji-eun’s head.
“Jieun, do you want to eat something? My Jieun is here and I can’t just let him go… I’ll buy him everything he wants to eat! What meat should I eat? Do you like beef?”
“beef? “I like sirloin!”
“I know it’s delicious.”
Seeing Lee Ji-won like that, Lee Hyun-seo smiled and muttered softly.
“You’ve really grown up. “I was worried for no reason.”
*
“I’ve filled my stomach. Shall we go for a quick run?”
Korean beef sirloin!
X, who had filled his stomach for the first time in a long time thanks to his nephew, relaxed. Although the saturation level in reality was not linked to Fate, I tried moving my body to stretch.
‘This is my first time leaving Arba Kingdom.’
Arba, the largest kingdom on the continent!
Although X had traveled to quite a few places, he had never left Arba’s territory. But this time, the destination was the End of Hope Lighthouse at the southernmost point of the continent.
“Summons!”
“Kyuuu!”
“It’s been a while, Yongyong. “You were hungry, right?”
“Kyuuuu.”
When we reached the southern border of Arba, we had no choice but to meet users and NPCs. Therefore, X filled Yongyong’s stomach in a relatively deserted place.
“…are you very hungry?”
Yongyong’s bulging belly!
X patted Yongyong, who had a satisfied expression on his face, and canceled the summoning. If I had time, I would have headed south while hunting with Yongyong.
‘Because now I have to run as fast as possible.’
Great Sage Sioras!
There was a possibility that he might leave the lighthouse. To meet him, I had to run south as fast as possible.
X looked around. I saw a wide grassland. This meadow extends to the border village.
‘Let’s see who looks the fastest….’
Let’s use the heavenly cooking buff!
X’s eyes fell on the wild beast running across the plains. It looked just like a cheetah. widely! X quickly ran over and took out the newly acquired spear, Primordial Flint.
‘Always with maximum attack power!’
A primal flint whose attack power changes depending on its momentum!
However, X’s momentum was not rough.
[Fatal blow!]
Sigh! The beast died from X’s blow. X immediately laid out the ingredients and used a heavenly recipe. As the shadow appeared, X moved his body as it followed. X soon finished cooking and inhaled the food.
[Heavenly taste has discovered the hidden taste in ‘Running of the Wild Cooking Beast’.]
[The speed of the wild beast running across the grassland is absorbed into your body!]
[Your movement speed on the grassland is doubled for 24 hours!]
[ Your agility in the grassland increases by 100 points for 24 hours!]
[Your evasion rate in the grassland increases significantly for 24 hours!]
When you step onto the grassland, your leg muscles twitch!
X took his stance and started running.
‘I’m a little late because I had work to do in the morning, but at this rate, I think we’ll be able to cross the Arba border today?’
*
“Gasp, we’ve arrived.”
Narrowly safe.
The sky was dark, but not a day had passed yet. Arriving at a small border village, X took a deep breath. When I turned my head, I saw users who seemed to be quite high level.
‘Everyone is familiar with the guild emblem.’
Those skilled enough to escape the Kingdom of Arba.
There were definitely a lot of users who were dedicating themselves to well-known guilds. Suddenly, someone saw X and approached him. A man with a gravelly voice said.
“I don’t think there is one, but I tried to talk to it because there was no emblem. My name is Nebula of the Red Wolf. If you don’t belong to a guild, would you like to join our Red Wolf Guild?”
Red Wolf!
It was a large guild with mainly Chinese users belonging to it. Although it was not selected as a Mage Streamer, it still remained a prestigious guild that everyone dreams of. There was no way X would be interested in something like a large guild.
X politely declined.
“sorry. “I have no thoughts.”
“I see. “It’s unfortunate, but there’s nothing we can do.”
The man bowed his head and rejoined the group.
I can’t believe you thoughtlessly rejected an offer from a huge guild.
It was a sight that would have shocked other users, but it was a familiar sight to X.
‘Do you think the relic set glows?’
A soft light emanating from the relic set! That light alone was enough to create the image of a rich expert. Moreover, since there were no guilds, guilds large and small had no choice but to covet X.
‘I guess that’s the border.’
A torch where guards and quite a few users are gathered.
Looking at their unfamiliar clothes, they seemed to be guards from the Kingdom of Ruyan, a kingdom adjacent to the Kingdom of Arba. X reflected on the information about the Kingdom of Ruyan that he had previously researched.
‘A more closed country than Arba.’
Ruyan!
I heard that it is a kingdom with a weak national power and that it pays a certain amount of tribute to Arba every year. Arba’s influence on Ruyan was so great that it was safe to say that it was actually the same country as Arba, but it was said that it was not annexed because it was a kingdom with such strong characteristics.
As X got closer, he could see the cause of the commotion.
Lu Yan’s guard fluttered his sleeves and waved his hand.
“We don’t know anything about it. However, there was an agreement between Arba and Lujan to strictly control the border. Please understand.”
Controlling the borders?
It was X who had never heard of a story like this.
X asked a female user wearing a witch hat.
“Excuse me, but what happened now?”
“As the guard said, I don’t know why, but it looks like the border is closed. “It seems like we have no choice but to sneak across the border because it’s a different country.”
It is safe to say that Arba and Rujan are the same country. Therefore, even though it was a border, it was not strictly guarded. Of course, even if control had begun, it was not a task to breach the border for the users here.
Some will wait until the blockade is lifted, while others will secretly cross the border.
X bit his lip as he saw the users scattering.
‘If you get caught, your reputation will be ruined.’
Your reputation is approaching 1,000, but if you commit a crime and get caught, you will suffer a huge loss.
Guard Ruyan spoke to X, who was left alone.
“The control order will probably not be lifted for some time.”
Even if it was a waste of fame, finding Sioras was an urgent priority. Still, I wanted to give it a try and secretly cross the border as a last resort.
X began to flatter the guard.
“You have been working hard until late at night. I don’t have anything to give you, but is there anything you would like to eat? “Even though I’m like this, I’m a pretty good cook…”
“Even if you say that, I can’t let you go.”
“…I guess that’s true, right?”
The guard’s tone was stern.
I thought X wouldn’t work. As time passed, it seemed like I had no choice but to secretly cross the border.
Would there be less chance of getting caught if I joined other users? That’s when X turned around and headed towards the village.
An urgent voice was heard.
He was the leader of the Ruyan guards.
“Wait, wait, wait!”
“yes? “Is that what you mean?”
When X turned his head, Guard Captain Ruyan spoke politely.
“As expected, that silver lion decoration definitely belongs to the Northern Thiyer family! Please forgive my rudeness. If you are a member of the Thier family, you may pass through the border!”
Munchkin that I eat all by myself
