My Villains Episode 240

“You…
“Why. What?”
Stopping in front of the stairs, Ellen frowned and looked at again. Then, in disbelief, he pursed his lips.
“I think you’ve… grown a bit taller.”
“key?”
oh what else do i say
“Is it an illusion? Or did you even switch shoes with Steedman?”
For so reason, a bloody smile appeared on the nervous guy’s face. I shrugged and replied.
“It seed to be about 1 cm tall. I think it might be around 193 now.”
“…under.”
I put an absurd laugh behind and lost my mind for a while.
Is it because I t a snake that drinks blood in the Dream Mansion? The mastery of ‘Legendary Lineage’ increased by 2 points.
‘Legendary lineage’ in the ga was a passive skill that slightly increased resistance to all attributes and status abnormalities and slightly raised defense. Its value was so insignificant that it was given less priority compared to other skills. Depending on the training thod, there were many cases where only 3 points were invested or skipped.
In real life, it’s similar, but a little different. What I felt was the fact that my skin had beco a bit tough, but it was probably the effect of the defense power correction.
On the other hand, I don’t feel good about resistance. I couldn’t do crazy things like set myself on fire or accidentally drink poison just to see if my resistance had risen.
In addition to that, as it did the last ti it shed, it grew a little bit this ti. It seems to be an additional effect that is not marked in the ga.
“I’ve been thinking about it too and barely noticed it, but how did you know?”
“…Nonsense.”
Ellen, who was looking up at blankly, bit her lower lip and said,
“Why do you keep growing taller? What kind of tree are you?”
and was shooting.
“…Did I do sothing wrong?”
“No, that’s not it… Sothing is strange. You’re not even a kid, so why do you keep getting taller?”
“Originally, n grow up to be in their mid-twenties, right?”
“Are you in your mid-twenties?”
He stuttered, almost in a panic.
“You are twenty one this year.”
WO” after.
“So, you an the next 45 years will be bigger? like now?”
“…well. What could it be?”
hmm. Co to think of it, if I mastered the legendary lineage, I might really grow to about 2 ters tall.
For Kim Seung-soo, his size now feels a bit excessive, so he feels a bit repulsed to be taller than 2 ters.
Ellen kept her shoulders down with a look of despair on her face, and muttered, ‘It would be quicker to learn the transformation spell.’
why is he like this
“Let’s go down and eat. I’m hungry because I sweated from morning.”
“…I’m not going to eat. I’ve tried it anyway, but it’s no use…
“What nonsense are you talking about?”
I almost lifted him up and dragged him down, and the al was already ready.
The breakfast nu was quite plentiful.
Boiled broad beans boiled in sheep’s milk with various spices, bean porridge Stir-fried atballs mixed with wild boar at batter with sliced chard and garlic Sausage made from quail goat at coated with oil and grilled whole with herbs Marinated herring Flatbread Fresh One fennel leaf and arugula etc.
It is difficult to call it an aristocratic diet, but it was an extrely luxurious al for ordinary farrs.
Among the young couples who acted as servants, the wife’s side, that is, Rowen, benefited from her excellent cooking skills. She made full use of the food she obtained from hunting and gathering and from other villages, presenting a new dish every ti. She didn’t ask, but she must have worked as a maid in a wealthy family.
“Hey, try this. It’s not too salty, just right.”
The steaming sausage was cut into pieces and placed on Ellen’s plate.
However, the guy glanced at once and continued to bite the porridge. Seeing that her lips are also protruding, she seems to be dissatisfied with sothing…
It is not easy to understand a girl who is in a period of stormy rage.
…no no no. If you’re 17 years old, you’ll be a senior in high school in Korean age.
Even with such doubts in mind, he filled Ellen’s glass with cider and put the bones from a roasted quail on a plate. Then, as I started to open the boiled quail eggs, he glanced at and opened his mouth.
“Leave alone. I will eat it myself.”
“Okay, this is the last one. Co on, try it.”
“Stop it-”
Ellen, choked up by the quail eggs, pursed her lips and frowned.
“I’ll eat it myself, so why bother?”
“It’s because I’m worried when I see you cracking up. He said you don’t even eat your lunch.”
Here in the castle town of Modos, every single mber of our party received a mission.
Hunting for at and fur, helping to train the vigilantes made up of refugees, circling nearby villages to find people and supplies, patrolling around the wide walls, etc… These are such missions.
Of course, Ellen and I also have missions, so we can’t be together 24 hours like before. So I have to keep worrying.
“Are you eating lunch?”
“Is lunch picking up so snacks? It’s not that there aren’t people who take care of it, so why are you filling your al with sothing like that?”
“…it’s annoying to co down.”
Ellen set up a simple laboratory in the guild master’s room. So, during the day, he experinted or made potions, and in the evening, he practiced magic and split the day.
“Then I’ll tell you to put the food up on the second floor, so start eating lunch today.”
what the.”
“got it? Do you go and ask Rowen what he ate?”
It was the words that I spit out with the determination to get irritated in my heart, but
“…that’s how it is. Do whatever you feel like.”
Unexpectedly, Ellen grumbled a little, but went over smoothly.
Then he picked up the at I had put on a tableware and ate it, then glanced the other way. I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but it’s an expression that feels elated.
W……I followed Ellen’s gaze out of curiosity, and before I knew it, Heila had finished eating and was quietly sipping wine.
When her black eyes t mine, she blinked quietly before raising her glass.
“Do you want a drink?”
“uh? No, it’s fine… Is that watered?”
“no.”
“…then it’s just fresh wine? from morning?”
Heila didn’t answer. Instead, her signature ‘why? What’s the matter?’ showed eyes.
I ended up laughing.
“Ehh.”
Then the wad made a whimper.
As a well-trained assassin, he usually didn’t show his signs, but now, for so reason, he was wrestling with the quail with a rattling sound.
“Eh, I can’t…
Whether it’s because I’m noticing it or for so other reason, Mung-doo kept glancing at . It’s like looking at you for help.
“Moongchi, can I do it for you?”
“Hey yeah-”
Mudchi was about to push the plate towards , but Ute Kwai, who had been quietly watching the amount he was doing from the seat next to him, suddenly jumped out.
“I don’t think so.”
He reached over and picked up a quail from the plate of the bunch and tossed it whole into his mouth.
“Ew!” Surprised or not, Utequai chewed the quail through the bones. Did it sound three or four tis? He gulped down the contents of his mouth.
“That’s mine, it’s mine!”
“If you don’t know how precious food is, you don’t deserve to eat it.”
“Hey hey! You pig stupid savage!”
Mungchi shouted hard and clapped his hands, but Utequai just giggled and continued to eat.
…it’s a very peaceful morning.
After the al, he called all the rcenaries to the guild hall. Because today was a payday, not a weekday.
“Get in line.”
When I sat down at the table and opened the ledger, twelve rcenaries quickly lined up.
“The first one is Confidence? ruler.”
The veteran conductor counted the money received. He checked the three silver coins and six pennies and nodded.
“Confird, Nari. thank you.”
It sounds obvious, but the weekly wages of rcenaries differ depending on their abilities and equipnt.
An excellent soldier and a veteran as a rcenary, Confier tends to earn more money than average. There were only three rcenaries with a higher weekly wage than that.
“Co on, Gidon. I have a lot of trouble losing tal and going hunting.”
“it’s okay. It is also quite rewarding.” “Then I’m glad.” The weekly wage of the gidon is 4 silver coins.
It’s not just because he’s a good shooter that he gets paid so much. A high-end heavy crossbow that can pierce Drake’s hide at once will take half of that week’s wages.
“Next”
“It’s , sir.”
It was the ponytail Fritz who strode forward proudly. As soon as I saw him, I imdiately frowned.
“right. I heard you killed one of the vigilantes yesterday?”
“There was one bastard who was in a bad mood, so I touched him to get so discipline.”
“This bastard. Almost making a person disabled-”
I almost raised my hand at Fritz’s dignified expression. The guy flinched for a mont as if he noticed that, but he protested against with a frown.
“Ah, originally, I would pluck out an eyeball, but thanks for looking at it, I ended up with a few teeth. It’s because they saw that he would save his life.”
“If I wanted to save my side, I shouldn’t have used my fist in the first place, you idiot.”
“That’s it-”
“Fine. If you do this again, you die. It’s not a taphor, I’m going to kill you for real. Got it?”
Fritz kept his mouth shut at my soft advice, as if his careful discipline had helped.
This madman’s weekly wage is five silver coins, or one gold coin.
It’s partly because he’s equipped with pretty good quality equipnt, such as reinforced chain armor and a shield covered with a hamr for war, but… To be honest, even
putting that aside, his skills are overwhelmingly good. His physical ability gradually reached the level of a superman, and his weapon skills were excellent, so he could pretend to be a knight in the countryside.
If personality were included in the standard for calculating weekly wages, the words would be different, but a dirty personality is not a flaw in this industry. That’s why his weekly wage ranking is 2nd.
“Now, next.”
It was none other than one-eyed Simos who showed up at my na.
I asked while picking up the gold and silver coins.
“Isn’t it hard to be hit here and there?”
“…No, it’s okay.”
“It’s fine.”
From my point of view, she is the most suffering person in this castle town.
Simos acted as Heila’s assistant and helped manage the villagers, while Ellen began to show interest in her.
The reason why Simos got Ellen’s attention is, of course, magic. Since he is a magician or a rcenary, he deals with lightning magic.
Originally, Ellen wasn’t very interested in Simos because his magical level was so low. However, it seems that she beca interested in learning that she had recently learned ‘arrow and lightning’.
So now Simos was busy helping Heila manage the refugees during the day and being dragged away by Ellen in the evening to master the lightning spell.
“Now count.”
In addition to Ellen and Heila’s overflowing attention,
Simos is the one who gets the highest weekly wage among the rcenaries.
Simos’ swordsmanship is just average among rcenaries, but she is a magician who uses as many as 3 lightning-type spells. In other words, he was a lightning wizard, but he had rcenary-level combat skills.
For this reason, it was not a waste of money, two silver coins for a gold coin.
“…That’s correct sir.”
“Yes, go.”
And to be honest, one gold piece of Simos’s weekly pay cos back to .
As the notorious magician ‘Green-Haired Moses’, I fixed the arm that should have fallen off a long ti ago, so I should get this much.
anwhile, the tight-knit Steedman, freckled mummy archer Cole, a trio from Longville, earns only one silver coin a week.
He said he would increase his weekly wage, but he refused, saying that he had no sha in receiving more money because he had improved his skills thanks to and even received a magic tool. Mira, who was making a reluctant expression between the two n with a firm attitude, took a little bit, but I finally accepted their admirable intention.
After biting the rcenaries, I simply organized the ledger.
After staying in the castle town, the amount paid to the rcenaries was about 100 silver coins.
80 of them are two weeks’ worth of wages, and the rest is combat pay. Thanks to the fact that there were no battles that changed, the battle allowance was saved a lot.
Now, the party’s remaining wealth is…
3 diamonds bought with the money Prince Ulkar gave in South Harbor. If you convert this into gold coins, it’s about 60 sheets.
Of the wealth obtained through hunting and spoils, the remaining was 23 gold coins and 73 silver coins.
The rest of Heila’s possessions are 12 gold coins and 36 silver coins.
After arriving here, among the valuables that the freckled mummy collected from the whole town, there were 2 gold coins and 27 silver coins.
In total, there are 97 gold coins and 136 silver coins. It’s a huge sum of money.
When a rchant arrives here, he’ll make so more money by processing the furs and other spoils he’s been collecting… and
his wealth grows endlessly. As expected, the stronger the party, the more exponentially the number of bets increases.
Well, it had no choice but to do so, even with just one Ellen, the firepower surpassed that of a moderately large rcenary force.
And if the rcenaries were hired by nobles and fought battles, they would receive about 7 80 gold coins as a combat allowance.
In a word, with a little exaggeration, it was said that the value of Ellen pouring out spells after making up her mind was about 100 gold coins. Even if only Ellen was considered, our party’s inco would go crazy.
“……Hmm.”
But never forget that holding money is of no help to combat and survival. I have to use this sohow to make it useful… but
I can’t figure out how to spend the money. Would you like to share a story with your friends?
Around the ti the ledger was closed, shouts were heard from afar outside the guild hall.
“Poynix-sama—!”
At the head of Steedman’s voice, who should have been patrolling the walls, the vigilante youths clamored for . As soon as I hurried outside, Steedman, who was riding a horse, pointed east with an urgent face.
“Priests and monks are coming! rchants too!”
“Oh finally?”
Five days had already passed since Max, a rchant from the west, left with the news of the castle town of Modos. It seems that visitors ca from the nearby village where the news was delivered.
“But they are being chased by the greenskins.”
“Damn it. Where did you get stuck and co out?”
“I don’t know about that, but there was a giant there too.”
“giant?”
“Yes, a giant. I saw it with my own eyes.”
Are you a giant? What kind of guy are you?
“I’ll go first, so tell everyone! Right now!”
Before Steedman could say anything, he grabbed his horse and ran straight east.
……It’s a giant’.
My heart is beating wildly.
I thought I was very happy with the peaceful life that had been going on for so ti recently, but I guess there was sothing a little unsatisfying.
