The Dungeon Master's
Chapter 23 - Observer
'Damn it, I never thought that my father actually sold all my holdings including my comic books!'
I kept muttering to myself after leaving the hospital. Although quarreled, but now my father confesses to me. Moreover, his views on Re:Life had started to improve.
"Yes, though. I'm a little relieved now that my sister is in a coma, but her life is not threatened. Now I have to work even harder!"
I went back to my boarding house using an online vehicle. My mom and dad will take care of Lina. I have also given 1.5 million to them to add to the administrative needs of the hospital.
It seems that the money earned from selling my goods was also used to cover the medical expenses of Rina. Yeah, I'm not really into that right now.
The most important thing right now is to eat and then sleep.
I immediately boiled the instant noodles I had with all my might. Once ripe, I immediately ate it as if there was no longer a chance to eat tomorrow.
Naturally I was starving because the last time I ate was this morning while the seafood I ordered was not so I ate. Not even made yet! To be honest, I'm still upset with the seller.
But that's a story for another day.
After I finished eating, I took a lot of water and then slept soundly.
Tomorrow everything goes like yesterday. I ate, drank, then went to rent the capsule. The difference is I plan to rent for 16 hours this time.
With my extraordinary expenses yesterday, now the rest of my money is only 420 thousand.
That's why I have to work harder.
"How do I work harder? The mana I have in the game regenerates according to the rules of the system. Not that my spirit will increase his regeneration." I ask myself.
It is true that mana regeneration is determined by the system whereas my income is based on how quickly I regenerate.
"It's troublesome, maybe I'll look for which regeneration item later."
Immediately after saying that, I closed my capsule door and immediately Log In.
The view is the same as yesterday. My character is in a room with natural rock walls. At the end of the room was a dilapidated door that had been here for a long time.
On my right and left side were 2 Epic-level goblins who were loyal to guard me.
'Hmm... do they have names?'
Suddenly I was curious about it. Naturally, monsters were also NPCs. Unlike players, they need to eat sleep and rest. Usually I give them meat dropped by hunted monsters then I don't think much.
They can also sleep on their own.
But name huh?
"Uh, you two." I asked the 2 monsters.
"Yes! My lord! What's up?" Answer them with passion.
Huwaaah, Sir? Me?
Suddenly I felt ashamed of myself. It was strange to be called master by monsters. Moreover, they seemed to be stronger than me in a physical fight.
"I'm curious, but do you guys have names?" My question's short.
"We monsters don't have names, my lord! Therefore, you are free to call us anything!" Answer them both compact.
"Alright, from now on the name of the two of you is Guardian, because you have a duty to take care of me!" I replied firmly while trying to look a little cool.
Doesn't matter if I want to try to look a little cool?
"Thank you, Master! From now on, the two of us are Guardians of spears and swords!"
Yes, even though these 2 goblins both have Epic levels, they have different weapons.
The one on my right has a fairly long and large sword. The one on my left uses a long iron spear.
'Hmm... I wonder how they obtained that weapon?'
I'm curious. How not, if I could change their weapons and equipment, his combat power would increase drastically.
Not wanting to get caught up in curiosity, I asked them back.
"By the way, where did you get that gun? And how can you use it?"
"We killed a big kobold and they dropped both of these weapons when Master wasn't here! Since it looks strong, we decided to use it in order to better serve Master!"
'Eh? Justjust like? So I just need to give them weapons and other equipment then they will use them themselves?'
I feel stupid and disappointed in myself. How could I not know something so simple.
If I want them to change their weapons, I just need to prepare those weapons.
Not finished disappointed with myself, with a knock from behind the door.
"uh? Who'sis that? I don't have an appointment with anyone for the next 1 day." I asked the goblins in this room.
All shook their heads including the 2 Guardians who were able to speak it.
"Well, one of you open the door. Others, get ready for the fight."
All the goblins were on standby. 5 little goblins were in front of where I was sitting to be a shield to me. While the 2 Guardians are standing guard on the right and left of my body.
'Kreek....'
The door opened slowly.
Behind the door, a female figure. He has red hair and clothes with red and black patterns.
There was no name on top of his head, which indicated that he was not a PK.
That's the conclusion I made after meeting Straf. PK has a bright red name that is clearly plastered over their heads.
The woman approached me without a word. His footsteps showed that he was not at all afraid of the monsters around him.
When he was in front of me, his mouth began to speak.
"I heard something interesting about you from the adventurers, Tamer." Say that woman. He then immediately continued his words while looking at me.
"Eric, level 41, total Growth Point 40, Mana Capacity reaches 32 thousand, level 6 beginner summoning technique, level 4 beginner contract technique, technique...."
She kept mentioning my entire status, as if she could see it easily.
"Oh, so that's how you get monsters, huh? How exciting!" Continue the woman.
I'm speechless in this situation. The two Guardians had prepared for the fight. But the mysterious woman ended the mention of my ability after seeing my reaction.
"Unique Skill: Observer" he said.
"What do you mean?" I asked more and more confused.
"Haw...." The woman sighed while looking at me with a look full of disappointment.
"I thought you were a fool, right?"
"W-what are you saying! You suddenly come here, say weird things and then call myself a fool?" Answer me loudly.
"Yes, you're a fool. It's so stupid, though. Selling monsters that obey all the orders of their buyers at a cheap price, besides not asking about what they will use with the monster. What's more, you can't communicate at all. If not stupid, then?" Reply to the woman I don't know with a proud tone.
I did not answer, the woman continued her words.
"Therefore, this clever Elin will help you! From now on, we are a pair of partners!"
"What did you say? You can't decide unilaterally! Again...."
Unable to finish my words, Elin covered my lips with her fingertips.
"If you refuse my offer, I will sell you information... Summoners."
My mind began to awaken after hearing his words.
Elins. Unique Skill: The Observer.
In front of him, there was no information that could be hidden.
