A Reincarnated Person With a Sub-Dimension

Episode 45

It is very difficult to explain and convince people of things that are out of common sense.

Rather than giving long explanations to persuade directly, providing objective information to help the other person think and judge for himself was more effective for persuasion.

“Actually, I double-engraved it.”

At that moment, Mr. Kit’s expression, which had been calm, changed to surprise in an instant.

To hunt an ogre alone, you need the combat power of a skilled cleric or magic warrior.

In fact, even such skilled people had to take the same risk as walking on a blade to succeed in hunting.

However, that meant that it was dangerous, but not impossible.

I provided additional reasons to convince Uncle Kit.

visor.

The silver sword came out of the scabbard with a clear sound.

“And thanks to the true silver sword that Uncle Herbert gave me, I was able to deal with the ogres with ease.”

“Talented enough to become a magic warrior, martial arts skills learned from Sir Herbert, plus a sword made of silver. It’s worth hunting ogres. But that’s what I mean.”

Uncle Kit said in a worried voice with a serious expression on his face.

“Hunting alone. Isn’t that too risky? I think it’d be better to safely hunt trolls or find companions. I thought that a little less income would be better than risking something dangerous.”

“I know it’s dangerous. But I have a goal, so it will be difficult. Thank you for your words.”

“Hmm. If that’s the case, I can’t help it. I’ll just hope that you’re all right.”

“I’m being as careful as possible, so don’t worry too much. And as you said, I’m doing something a little dangerous. That’s why I don’t want people around me to know. I’d like you to keep the ogre hunting a secret.”

Uncle Kit nodded slowly.

“Okay. That’s what I do. By the way, you’re thinking of putting the ogre by-products up for auction?”

“That’s right. If you have time, I’d like to go to the Mercenary Agency right now.”

“I’m going, no problem, but before that, I’d better check the value of the by-products first. Judging from the size of the bag, I don’t think I’ve brought all the by-products with me. I can’t put them up for auction unless they’re worth more than a hundred gold coins, so take them all out. I’ll check it out once in a while.”

“Yes. But you won’t have to check.”

I have 2 from my backpack and 2 from my subspace pocket.

I took out a total of 4 ogre skins and put them on the floor.

Uncle Kit’s eyebrows twitched as the ogre hide came out of the small pouch.

He tried to hide his surprise, but he seemed to have failed even to control his eyebrows.

‘Why are you surprised by this?’

Showing the subspace pocket was a decision made after some calculation.

The more auctions brokered, the higher the awareness and trust of the merchants naturally.

There is no class more sensitive to profit and loss than merchants.

From Uncle Kit’s point of view, I would be like a magic lamp that brings me money and fame even when I’m standing still.

The subspace pocket was nothing when I thought of the benefits Uncle Kit would gain from me in the future.

“As you can see, it’s five ogre skins. At first, the leather was damaged because I was clumsy, but I gathered all the others neatly without a single flaw.”

“Hasn’t it been less than a month since you went hunting? Have you hunted five ogres in that time? Heh heh heh.”

“It worked because I worked hard. But there was not enough space to pack all the by-products, so I only collected hides.”

Ogre by-products include hides, bones, claws, and tendons.

If he was going to pack all the by-products for five ogres, he would have needed four or five more large backpacks.

There was no large-capacity subspace bag, and it was practically impossible to collect all by-products.

‘Even if I have a subspace bag, it’s better to only bring leather.’

No matter how big the subspace bag is, there will be limits, so you can’t keep putting the whole ogre in.

In the end, considering the efficiency, it is said that you have to slaughter alone, but this was never an easy task.

Considering the time it took to remove the bones and tendons, collecting only the hides was much more efficient.

The value of ogre skin is about half of the value of the by-products.

Ogre skin has excellent mana absorption, so after being magically treated, it was made into armor or used as a material for magic scrolls.

“If I can catch a lot of ogres like you, that would be the best way. But thinking of the discarded by-products makes me feel sorry for them all.”

“I can’t help it considering the efficiency. So, can I get a wagon worth of subspace items? I think I’ll be able to hunt enough with that.”

“It’s probably not easy. As you know, crafting subspace items consumes the source mana of master wizards. As a result, many items aren’t produced, and the existing owners don’t want to sell them easily.”

The master magician can store mana in objects.

However, in the process, source mana, which represents the total amount of mana, is consumed.

In a world where brute force is the truth, there were few wizards who would create magic items even at the expense of their own strength.

This was the reason why you couldn’t buy barding with money.

In fact, it was a strange thing that Simon, who was nothing more than an ordinary skilled spectator, had a subspace pouch.

“So you’re saying it’s hard to find?”

“That’s not necessarily the case. Aren’t you looking for a high-level mana sim anyway? It will take time, but if you pay a little more for the request, you’ll be able to get enough subspace items. There are people everywhere who need a quick supply of money. It’s just a wagon. The price of one subspace item is expensive, but it will be difficult to find because the quantity itself is small.”

“Whether it’s big or small, where can I get it? Then I’ll ask for a request.”

I handed over all the gold coins I had to Uncle Kit, except for the silver coins for living expenses.

“Okay. I’ll put in the request as soon as the time is right.”

“Thank you. Then shall we go to the Mercenary Agency?”

“Yes.”

The mercenary office was crowded with countless people.

The mercenaries who had been sucking their fingers for months seemed to have gone on an expedition in large numbers.

After waiting for a while, I was able to meet Serena.

My current mercenary rank is lower silver.

I decided to raise the mercenary level first before entrusting the auction.

The by-product tax rate of the upper class of the silver shield was 20%, 10% lower than that of the lower class.

The higher the grade, the more dangerous missions he will take on, but he didn’t worry about that at all anymore.

I lowered my voice and reassured Serena in advance so that she wouldn’t be surprised.

I took out 5 ogre teeth out of sight of others and put them on the window.

Serena widened her eyes, opened her mouth as if to say something, then stopped.

He had a lot of expressions on his face that he wanted to ask, but he didn’t say anything because he was conscious of the people around him.

A total of 1300 points are required to become a Silver Plaque Advanced, with 100 points for the basic level, 400 points for Intermediate, and 800 points for Advanced.

Each ogre tooth is worth 256 points, for a total of 1280 points.

Adding the score of the trolls he had previously hunted on top of that, he was able to be promoted to a higher level Silver Plaque at once.

When I told Serena that there were items to be auctioned off, she directed us to a room on the second floor.

A few minutes later Kennell, a middle-aged man with a frown on his face, entered the room.

He looked at me and his eyes lit up.

said Kennel, who sat down at the table.

“You’re a mercenary who brought you a high-level magic stone. In the meantime, you’ve become a high-level silver plate.”

“Ah. Do you remember me?”

“Does my brain look so bad that I can’t remember what happened just a few months ago? I’m not going to talk too long, just take out some stuff. There are a lot of guys bringing in useless stuff these days. You’d better not think about letting it go.”

Kennel was still unscathed.

I didn’t want to mix things up, so I quietly took out the ogre hide and set it down on the floor.

Kennel unfolded the ogre hides one by one and opened his mouth after a while.

“I’ll buy four in good condition for sixty gold coins, and a torn one for fifty gold coins. What should I do?”

“I’ll put it up for auction.”

If you go through the auction, you should get at least twenty more gold coins.

There was no urgent need to spend money, and there was no need to rush.

Kennel called Serena outside and instructed her to issue the certificate as before.

“Somehow I feel like I’ll see you often.”

Then he left the room without saying a single word.

While the certificate was being issued, Serena constantly asked questions about what had happened.

I showed the true silver sword to Uncle Kit, saying that it had been double-engraved, as I had done.

Serena also showed a similar reaction to Mr. Kit and nodded her head in agreement.

After making an appointment with Serena for a meal, I left the mercenary office.

Of course, I didn’t forget to shut her mouth before breaking up with her.

When I asked about Kennel, he reassured me that he was a principled man and would never speak out about the auction.

Uncle Kit and Serena.

As long as the two of them managed well, there would be no talk of the auction.

After parting ways with Uncle Kit, he visited the Bowen Sisters Mercenary Corps.

I was going to see Thalia and the others for the first time in a while, but they had gone out a few days ago.

After some time to stand in front of the mercenaries.

“Ian!”

“Sister, long time no see. How have you been?”

Sister Eva appeared with a fresh smile.

“It’s okay. I’ve been depressed for a while, but seeing you makes me feel better. Let’s go somewhere and talk while eating. I’m free today, so you can stay with me for a while.”

There were a lot of things to ask about in order to plan your future journey.

It was a good thing for me that Sister Eva was free.

“Really? I’m free since I came back yesterday, but it just went well. Do you want to go to the restaurant first?”

“okay.”

Sister Eva casually crossed my arms.

We went straight to the nearest restaurant.

***

Shocked by the loss of a member in the subjugation operation, Eva spent days of depression for a while.

However, death is a fate for mercenaries.

No matter how careful you were, you couldn’t escape the threat of death as a mercenary’s life.

Since it is impossible to catch the dead again, Eva returned to her daily life while commemorating them.

Currently, Erita has returned to before the outbreak of monsters and has found stability.

Eva met Ian with a light heart.

“hahahaha. So? You refused, right?”

“Yes. Jung then asked for the highest level mana simbeop and barding.”

“Really? So what?”

“Jin said he would give me armor and advanced mana magic, so I said I had nothing more to say and woke up.”

“Wow. Really? Looks like he’s really into you.”

As always, Eva felt good whenever she met Ian.

Up until now, Eva had gotten used to the male mercenaries’ rough behavior and rude attitude.

However, Ian was polite and well-mannered.

What makes Eva feel the best is that Ian really listens to her story.

The men standing in front of Eva were usually impatient because they couldn’t boast about themselves.

However, while Ian listened intently to her story, he did not bring up the story about himself until he directly asked.

Because of this, Eva became more curious about Ian’s disposition and inner thoughts.
