Chapter 141

(Thank you for reading at bayabuscotranslation.com)

After completing the first live broadcast from Japan’s first dungeon and the appraisal of our valuable items, we gathered in my room. Even at the guild, the constant stares from those around us were uncomfortable. People frequently started conversations, and it was not the right place to discuss our next plans. That was why we decided to leave for a while. As a result, we ended up meeting in my room.

“Well then, good work everyone. According to this report, although our income is extremely high, we have so many items we wish to use that our operating funds have decreased. It is an unprecedented occurrence.” (Mira)

As Mira said, we wished to keep and use valuable items within the party rather than sell them. That was more efficient and entirely reasonable. Expensive items couldn’t easily be sold, which was why our funds had diminished. That was the situation.

“As for expenditures, Haruka’s gauntlet and Emilia’s spear were beyond repair and had to be discarded. That came to about 1.6 million. Then everyone’s repair fees came to about 300 thousand. There is one lunatic among us who did not take even a single hit, but thinking about that is pointless, so do not mind it.” (Mira)

That is cruel. I worked hard to evade every single attack during that fierce battle.

“Also, since the potion was opened, consider it used. Once opened, a potion cannot be resold.” (Mira)

“That was because fraud became frequent, was it not?” (Emilia)

“Yes. The incidents have decreased, though they have not disappeared.” (Mira)

Mira answered Emilia smoothly.

“The money gained from drops and unwanted items came to 1.73 million. The remaining items are the ‘Silk Shirt,’ the ‘Lizardman’s Halberd,’ the ‘Diamond Ring,’ and the ‘Skull Staff’. The ‘Skull Staff’ will clearly go to Adelaide, considering its abilities. What shall we do with the ‘Silk Shirt’?” (Mira)

Skull Staff

A cursed staff once used by a high-ranking shaman.

Magical attack power increased by 13%

Attack power: 13

Debuff success rate increased

Magic: Direct Pain usable

It had tremendous power, but its appearance was terrible. As one would expect of a Goblin drop, its look was as dreadful as its power was great. A skull with a spine extending from it, complete with ribs. Its violet hue gave off an aura of certain misfortune. No matter that it was a ‘Goblin King’ drop, I felt reluctant to let Adelaide-senpai, a woman, carry such a thing.

“Adelaide-senpai, may I ask you to take this?” (Kouta)

“Kouta, think nothing of it. This appearance means little to me. The proof that we all defeated the ‘Goblin King’ together is something to take pride in.” (Adelaide)

So that is what one would call a trophy. Frankly, I would rather decline. Yet, since Senpai has accepted it, there is nothing more for me to say. Until we find something better, she will have to endure it.

“I think the ‘Silk Shirt’ would suit Emilia or Sofia. I considered Haruka, but he is not the power type, so it is more effective to use it to strengthen our advantages. If we had more, everyone could wear one.” (Kouta)

“Considering defense and attack balance, let us give it to Emilia.” (Mira)

No one raised any objection.

“The next matter is Haruka’s gauntlet and the information sale. How much information do you plan to sell?” (Mira)

“Hmm. Haruka’s gauntlet was two and two, was it not?” (Kouta)

That meant DEF 2, MDEF 2.

“No, it was two and one, correct?” (Mira)

“Yes.” (Haruka)

We invested heavily in Haruka’s equipment. To be honest, losing a bit of defense made no real difference. Still, for emergencies, we should prepare something soon.

“How about Norwegian-made gloves? They are not flashy, but they are cheap and have similar defense.” (Sofia)

“Ah, you mean those leather-like ones? Not as bulky as my arm guards. Sounds good.” (Mira)

I had not visited the guild shop recently, so I could not recall.If memory serves, they were one and one or perhaps two and zero in performance.

“Haruka, would that be all right?” (Kouta)

“Of course. Most of my equipment was bought with party funds, so I have no right to complain.” (Haruka)

“Haruka, that is not right. We are doing this together, so you can say what you think.” (Kouta)

Mira probably intended to scold him, but she let me speak instead.

“Haruka, do you know the price of the ‘Diamond Ring’ I received?” (Sofia)

“My spear too.” (Emilia)

“And my staff, do not forget.” (Adelaide)

We had each received valuable items that could never be easily replaced. There was no way to truly calculate the value between us. That was what everyone meant by their words.

“S-sorry. Then, um, there was that black glove sold at the guild shop before, right? I would like that one. Would that be all right?” (Haruka)

“The thin and soft-looking one? Sofia, what was that called?” (Mira)

“If I remember correctly, it was the ‘Serpent Glove’ from Canada. Its stats were one and two. It was made from snake. Are you fine with that?” (Sofia)

“Well, once it becomes a glove, it no longer matters.” (Haruka)

Sofia was fixating on a strange point.

Is Haruka afraid of snakes, I wonder? I shall ask him some other time. Well, never mind.

“Hmm, our budget is tight, so perhaps next time. Is that all right?” (Kouta)

“Yes, I do not mind, as long as I can find something good later.” (Haruka)

“All right. That settles that. Let us now discuss the sale of information.” (Mira)

The discussion continued for some time.
