The Dungeon Master's
Chapter 21 - Stupidity
...Attention!...
...The following chapter may make some readers uncomfortable. It is expected that his policy will be in reading....
...If you are not ready, skip to the next chapter (suggestion: directly to chapter 23)...
As soon as I returned to the world of Re:Life, I found dozens of adventurers already waiting in line. The 2 Epic-level Goblins that existed were able to provide information about me precisely to all of them.
'Who would have thought that after reaching the Epic level they could speak like humans?' I thought in my heart. But that's a good thing.
Day and night the visitors come non-stop. My summoning magic also worked without rest until I realized it had reached the level of a Level 6 Beginner. Although it did not give me a new skill, but now I can summon 8 monsters simultaneously. This saves me my summoning time considering that each call has a fairly long animation effect.
To increase my summoning ability, I used the Ring of Mana Recovery item I obtained from one of the adventurers increasing the mana regeneration speed by 40%. The adventurer wanted to buy 100 goblins but had no money at all.
How quaint. So he offered me this ring instead. It could be said that this ring was much more valuable than 20 gold coins because its effect made me able to summon more goblins.
The time required for which my full point is from 0 to 30,000 normally is 1 hour. But with the item I now have, I only need 40 minutes for it.
In other words, I was able to summon 15 goblins every 40 minutes or about 22 goblins every hour. Although this number is still low but it is not a problem for me. if it is my old self.
Today, the number of customers is far beyond my control. I even had to use the order system to the customers so that I wouldn't be at fault in fulfilling their requests.
'I have to find a better way to summon monsters. Whatever the reason, the amount of mana consumption for this summoning was insane!'
Since then, customers have only come according to a schedule that I have determined before. So they don't have to wait in line and wait long for me to summon the monsters. Yeah even though they don't know that I did the summoning.
I told them that I was a monster tamer and had a goblin as my subordinate.
'I should have created a booking system from scratch.... This way I can relax a bit because the buyer just came on my schedule.'
After a little relaxing, I decided to look at my status window after 2 days of not paying attention.

I who was quite satisfied with this decided to log out. I've arranged a monster retrieval schedule for at least the next 1 week including a short message explaining that I will log out.
The time in the menu window already shows 00:04:31 indicating the rest of my rent time is only less than 5 minutes.
My consciousness returned to the real world after I logged out. The capsule opened slowly and I stepped out of the rental.
The first thing I realized was that I was very hungry and thirsty. It's only natural because I only ate noodles and drank two glasses of water today.
"Should I buy some good food and spoil myself a little?" I said to myself with a smile.
"I'm curious. If I show my money from playing Re:Life for less than a day to my father, what would his reaction be like? Maybe I'll try to go home and surprise them after eating. Even though I've been paying for the rent for 2 days, it doesn't seem like a big deal anymore."
I entered a food stall and ordered seafood. Although the price reaches Rp. 50,000 for a complete set, but I don't think it matters if I indulge myself a little in the outcome of my struggles.
But, when I took my phone to check the time, I was surprised not to play.
[279 missed calls]
[132 new messages]
'uh? What the fuck?'
I decided to open it. I'm sure this is a joke from some of my old High School friends.
But my guess was wrong. All calls are from my mom and dad's number. Same with the short message.
Only 1.
1 Message from Lina.
[Sister, I'm sorry if I've been bad to you all this time. Please make up with Mom and Dad. Also, please let me be selfish at least this time.]
The short message was accompanied by a picture of the school where Rina studied. But the camera only leads down from a window that appears to be on the 4th floor.
'Ti. there's no way Lina would do such a stupid thing.'
Before I could calm myself down, suddenly my phone rang with the name of the caller 'Mother' on its screen.
"Mom? What's up, huh?"
"Where are you! Lina's in the hospital, son!"
Her screams accompanied by sobs really broke my heart. Moreover, hearing the news that Rina was in the hospital.
'Ja-don't say!'
