Chapter 23
Reunion with Jojin
Of course, there is a difference between magical power and its kind, but the biggest difference is the Mana accumulation of Mana Halls.
Circles 2 and 3 are not significantly different from Mana’s, but they are growing since 4 circles.
That’s why we call the Four Circles the true Battle Wizards.
Now, here comes the problem with the three circles.
The efficiency of fuel efficiency is poor.
3 Circles increase the power of magic, but Mana’s holdings are not that different from those of 2.
That’s why you get tired of harsh magic in three circles.
Min-hyuk worked on a mission with Jo to reduce the number of times she could use magic.
As soon as we started again, we made sure that no magic was used except for the one shot of the first fireball.
Ultimately, it was strategically correct for her to save as much magic as possible and to devote all other time to Mana’s recovery.
A wizard needs a mental break to recover Mana.
‘So what · · ·. You can treat her like a princess. It’s not even me. ’
Min Hyuk thought so and decided to let Lee Jin-wook take care of her extremely.
I didn’t want to interfere because I could see Lee Jin-wook’s insides anyway.
Isn’t it obvious if you interfere here?
The joining forces with Georgia has made hunting Orcs much faster than when you were with George.
When there were no more than five Orcs, Jojo’s magic preempted them, and if they jumped, they were eaten cold meat.
Since about seven, I had to pay attention to Min-hyuk and Lee Jin-woo, but not to the extent that it was difficult.
Min-hyuk was confident when he defeated the ships with magic and crossbow attacks against a group of 12 Orcs and cleared them all up in 10 minutes.
This combination allows you to hunt enough in the realm of Orcs.
That day, Min-hyuk’s party caught 35 Orcs. When I brought it to the guild, the total amount of commission was 42 gold.
“That’s a lot of catching up for three. Looks like the new Wizard lady’s doing well, huh? ”
“Yes, it is. ”
Min-hyuk smiled happily and replied to the guild store owner.
Then the shop owner gave him a commission.
“cherish a good colleague. It is often the case that you take a colleague off the floor. ”
“· · · Let’s keep in mind. ”
Obviously, if you are a 3-Circle Wizard, you may not receive much treatment at the Horse Tower, but you are likely to try to steal it from another adventurer’s party.
So how do we prevent that?
Min-hyuk, who thought for a moment, came to a conclusion.
‘Why can’t Jin-wook get involved with Jin-wook well? ’
It was obvious that Lee Jin-wook liked Jo Jin-ah.
I just couldn’t figure out what she thought of Lee Jin-wook.
It didn’t seem like Min-hyuk had at least a crush on him.
“Well, it’s up to you to figure out what your relationship is. ’
Min-hyuk decided not to interfere. More importantly, Joshua repays the debt he owes to the tower quickly.
‘I need to put my hands on you. ’
Min Hyuk entered the inn as a place to stay and told Jina.
“Jina, can I talk to you for a second? ”
“What’s going on? ”
“It’s important. I need you two to talk for a minute. ”
“Okay. ”
At Min-hyuk’s words, she gently went into the room.
“Me?”
“Wait a minute. ”
When Lee Jin-wook tried to get into the position, Min Hyuk pushed Lee Jin-wook away, saying to wait for him.
It is because Lee Jin-wook, who is noticeable, is not helpful in what Min-hyuk is trying to do from now on.
When there were only two left in the room, Min-hyuk first gave Jo a bag of money.
Shorts.
“Just take this. It’s your day. ”
Min-hyuk said, giving Jo 50% of his money today.
The repaired Georgia does not hide her overjoyed expression.
In fact, she had not been talking to me before, but she was thinking that she wanted to get her share quickly.
“Thank you. I’ll take that. ”
“Yes. And I want to tell you something. You owe me a horse tower, right? ”
“What’s that? ”
“You will pay nothing but interest there right now. ”
“What? Why? ”
Min-hyuk said with a serious look to Jo Jin-a’s question.
“This is my guess. The reason I can’t afford to pay you off at the Horse Tower is because I’m more likely to get a mortgage than to get the money. ”
“Collateral? I didn’t put any collateral? ”
Min-hyuk shakes his head in Jo Jin-ah’s words.
“It’s not like that. Think what would have happened if you hadn’t repaid your debt? ”
“That’s it · · · · · · ·. ”
Min Hyuk said, looking at Jo Jin-ah who hesitated to answer.
“This is not Earth. Human rights are significantly lower than on Earth. And · · · ·. You can use magic on young and beautiful women. It’s worth it for a human being like you. Think about it. ”
“ · · · · · · · · · · · · · ”
Jina doesn’t answer.
But her red face seemed to fully understand Min-hyuk’s words.
In fact, she would have thought of it from the beginning.
I just didn’t bother to think because I wanted to look away in such a scary reality.
“· · But I can pay off 500 gold debts in no time, right? Don’t you think you’re exaggerating? ”
After he tried to make excuses, Min-hyuk said with a firm expression as if he would make it clear.
“You’re making a pretty good profit from our party, aren’t you? But can you do that on your own? ”
Min Hyuk wanted to make sure to Jo Jin-ah at this point.
It was true that Jo’s strength was indispensable, but I wanted to make it clear that what she was earning was not just her own power, but the income of three people working together.
“Isn’t there a way to join other adventurous parties or mercenaries? ”
She once again protested whether she knew the intentions of Min-hyuk.
Perhaps they are fighting because they don’t want to be taken away from the future because they know some of the intentions of Min-hyuk.
Min Hyuk once again said to Jo Jin-ah.
“In the meantime, I’ve met and learned from many adventurers · · ·. It’s not so easy to find a good partner. ”
Min-hyuk also explained the adventurers who had been matched for brokerage in the guild.
Money problems, opinions arising from strong self-assertion, false career, etc. ·.
I told Jo about the problems and told her that it was a great party while she was away.
It was half the purpose of Min-hyuk trying to keep her from leaving, and half the sincere advice.
In fact, the stress that has accumulated during the collision with matched Humans in the guild has naturally appeared.
“ · · · · · · · · · · · · ·. ”
After hearing Min-hyuk’s words, she made a serious face.
Seeing Jo Jinhee who seemed a little scared, Min-hyuk thought to himself.
‘Looks like it worked. ’
Min-hyuk wants to plant the idea for Jo Jin-a ‘This party is a very good party and an unknown gamble whether it will work or not at other parties. I want to plant the idea.
‘It’s dangerous out here.’ The same idea.
‘I’d like to let them settle down at our party if possible. ’
It was Min-hyuk who wanted to hold her for the future of the party and for her friend Lee Jin-wook’s love business.
And even if I could repay the debt, I had a card ready to prevent Joshua from returning to the tower.
“We need your abilities. This is for real, and on the contrary, you need us. This is also the truth.”
“ · · · · · · · · · · · · · ·. ”
“But the tower doesn’t need you on its side. Maybe it’s to own you somehow and pluck out the bone marrow. The debt was probably meant to be. ”
“How can you be so sure? You don’t have any hard evidence, do you? ”
“I’m not saying this for no reason. Facts. I looked everywhere through the Adventurer Guild. In the words of the Wizard who owes me from the Horse Tower. ”
“ · · · · · · · · · · · · ·. ”
“And I figured it out. They’re using a method of forcibly enslaving stranger wizards in the Horse Tower. Your tricks were typical of the foreigner wizards. ”
“ · · · · · · · · · · · · · · ·. ”
She didn’t answer, but there was a clear fear in her face.
Min Hyuk told that to Jo Jin-ah.
“If I find out that you’re repaying my debt smoothly, the tower might use a different means. So it’s best to pay interest only for a while and pay the principal at once under the guild of an adventurer when the money is collected. ”
After hearing all of that, Joshua nodded and convinced.
“Okay, I’ll do as you say. ”
‘Good.’
Min Hyuk was confident that he would never leave this party until he paid off his debt.
Now we can catch Orcs for a while.
I was waiting for Min-hyuk and Jo Jin-ah to come out of the room after the consultation.
“Are you done? ”
“Yes.”
Seeing Lee Jin-wook, who was looking like a puppy waiting for his master, Min Hyuk thought to himself.
‘That’s quite a clicker you got there. ’
It was true that Min-hyuk thought that she was pretty, but that didn’t mean that she seduced all the men who saw her as a beautiful woman.
It’s just, usually it takes ten random women and a pretty one out of them.
But why does Lee Jin-wook hang like that?
I’ve never seen Lee Jin-wook hanging out with other women in the nightlife, but I’ve never seen him so blatantly hung up.
‘Well, there must be a Phil who’s attracted to him. ’
In the end, the problem of not knowing English was Min-hyuk who wanted to not think.
He gave me some cover.
“Jina, don’t you have all the essentials you need to live here in the future? Clothes or other things. ”
“Huh? Ahh · · · ·. It is, though.”
“Then buy it all today. I’ll pay you here for your security. ”
Then Min Hyuk gave Jin-ah 5 gold and told Lee Jin-wook next to him.
“Jina, you shouldn’t get into trouble going alone. Jin-wook, you work as a bodyguard. ”
“Huh? Me? ”
“If you don’t want to. ”
“No. Who doesn’t?!? ”
Is Lee Jin-wook going to have a concussion? I shook my head worryingly.
“Then go back. I’m taking it easy. ”
“Okay. Rest well. ”
Lee Jin-wook was very excited just to be able to walk the streets with Jo Jin-wook.
Joshua and Lee Jin-wook walked the streets of Murcia.
Murcia was a fortified city bordering the Abyssal Forest, but commerce was extremely active.
Adventurers and mercenaries had thick pockets, and merchants were earning a lot of money against them.
The more merchants went out, the larger the market and the larger the economy.
That’s why Murcia’s shops were filled with common goods and luxuries for nobles and nobles alike.
In the vibrant market street, Jo Jin-wook went around to buy her things with Lee Jin-wook.
“What we need is just a clothing store. I don’t have to follow you. ”
Yi Jin-wook shakes his head at Joshua’s words.
“No. What if you get into an accident all by yourself? ”
“I’m a wizard, too. ”
“Wizards are vulnerable one-on-one. So I’ll protect you. ”
When I said I would protect her at the end, it was Lee Jin-wook whose voice was getting smaller.
Seeing Lee Jin-wook like that, she smiled peacefully.
“Thank you.”
