I, a mercenary, became a beautiful silver-haired boy

"A complete wolf fur is worth ten silvers. You are lucky that a noble is buying wolf furs. These wolf furs are peeled very well, with almost no damage and smooth cuts, which are worth the price. As for this fur with two holes, it has to be considered cheaper. Do you have any objection to seven silvers?"

At the material appraisal department in the guild, a man with a gray mustache and wearing single-sided glasses said while checking the quality of the fur.

It can only be said that he is worthy of being a professional appraiser in the guild. He is quite skilled in observing materials and is very fair in transactions.

"No problem, let's go with this price."

Ilaina did not learn about the market price first, but judging from the other party's performance, it did not seem like he was slaughtering a white-haired pig, so there was no need to bargain.

With the size of the Adventurer's Guild, it would not deceive a young adventurer like him who had just debuted. There was no need to consume the credit that the guild had accumulated for such a small amount of money.

If someone finds out, it will be a loss. Losing reputation is a serious matter.

"Add the eleven silver coins from the herbs I collected earlier, a total of sixty-eight silver coins, please take them."

After putting the things away, the appraiser pushed a box full of silver coins in front of Elena.

Elena opened it and took a quick look, and couldn't help grinning. The white silver coins looked dazzling.

But it seems that he is probably the only one in this world who will use a lot of copper coins to deal with people.

There is no need to count, Elena put it away directly, and this action attracted the attention of the appraiser.

Unexpectedly, the seemingly weak boy in front of him was more generous than expected.

He originally thought that with the other party's poor face, he must have counted it several times on the spot to confirm that it was correct before he dared to leave.

After leaving the Adventurer's Guild, Elena was in a better mood than ever before. It was really hard to hide the joy of holding such a bag of "huge money" in his hand.

As expected, being an adventurer is as profitable as being a mercenary. It took Sister Weiwei more than ten years to save more than two gold coins, but Elena earned a quarter of that in one day, and that was just the reward for his debut.

Although that's what he said, recalling the wolf attack outside the city before, it was actually a hard battle that made people gasp when they recalled it.

Only Elena's quick reaction and decisive action, coupled with his sharpshooter-like accuracy, could defeat the monster in this way of exchanging injuries for lives.

If ordinary people went up, or some inexperienced warriors, they would probably be pounced on and torn to pieces by the wolves in the first round of confrontation.

Or maybe Elena didn't get Sister Weiwei's support and used the huge sum of more than two gold coins to buy a relatively complete set of equipment.

Or maybe Melissa didn't give him this extremely sharp dagger, nor did she recommend selling him the dusty cloth armor in the warehouse.

The previous battle was very dangerous.

Although Irena probably wouldn't have left the city without these preparations, he made so much money today, all thanks to these coincidental factors.

Irena, who cherishes his life, also knows this, so he didn't regard his escape from death today as his strength, but just his luck.

In order to be able to hunt monsters more stably and make money in the future, it is necessary to improve his strength. Irena has to find a way to make himself stronger quickly.

Walking on the street, Irena played with a dark purple crystal in his hand, which was about the size of a fingernail. This was the magic core extracted from the body of the magic wolf.

In most cases, there will be such magic cores in the bodies of monsters, which is an important reason why monsters are much stronger than those beasts in Irena's impression.

Recalling the terrifying speed and explosive power of those magic wolves, Irena still has some lingering fears.

Normal hungry wolves will not rush as fast as these magic wolves. This is why monsters are monsters.

The magic core contains a lot of pure magic power, and the people in this world seem to rely on the magic cores they hunt to become stronger.

It seems that as long as you absorb the magic power in the magic core, you can only strengthen your own magic power or fighting spirit.

Therefore, the warriors in this world are also very active in hunting, but hunting monsters is inherently dangerous, and not everyone is willing to take that risk.

Elena has never tried to use the magic core to strengthen himself. He is very curious about this magical thing. After all, there is no magic power and fighting spirit in his world. Seeing this mysterious power, he naturally yearns for it.

Recalling the information I read in the guild, there are detailed records of how to use the magic core.

The simplest and crudest way is to swallow it into the stomach and pass through this world.The unique digestive ability of humans can naturally absorb the energy in the magic core.

Of course, if you feel it is dirty, you can directly crush the magic core, release the energy inside, and then absorb it into the body by pulling the energy.

This sounds more hygienic, but surprisingly, it is a job that tests your skills. If you don't control it well enough, you may waste some energy.

So compared with the former, it is more cost-effective to eat it into your stomach.

Elena didn't care much about this. He opened his mouth and threw it into his mouth like throwing candy.

Recalling the time when he was a child in his previous life, at that time, he would pick up and eat with relish even if the dry food was stepped on by someone on the roadside.

If he cared about so many hygiene issues, he would probably starve to death on the roadside, just like those war orphans.

It looks like a gem-like material, but it tastes like crispy candy when you bite it.

Swallowing it in one gulp and feeling the touch of the magic core sliding into his throat, Elena soon felt a surge of energy in his body.

It's not too much, not too little, but it's there.

This energy spreads around the body, as if looking for a stable place.

I can feel that my body is craving this energy and wants to integrate it into the flesh and blood.

"Burp~ Um!"

Before the energy was integrated into the blood, Elena couldn't help but burp, and the energy provided by the magic core immediately escaped with his breath.

Elena's face sank, feeling the poor magic power and fighting spirit in his body, still below the average line as before, without even a trace of growth.

"I don't believe it!"

Elena was a little unconvinced, and took out another magic core from his arms. This time he didn't chew it but swallowed it directly into his stomach.

I can feel the magic core dissolving in the stomach, and a stream of energy rushed up from the abdomen along the esophagus.

This time Elena was well prepared, covering his mouth tightly to prevent the energy from coming out of his mouth.

What was unexpected was that these energies knew that they could not rush out of the throat, and went back into the abdomen along the esophagus. This time they planned to find a breakthrough in the other side of the stomach and intestines.
