11. If you’re going to cheat, don’t get caught Bang
!!
“Quaaaaaagh!!!”
The appraiser screamed. He hit it so hard that blood flowed from his forehead.
“Is this a relic appraiser or a thief’s den?”
Kang Seung-hyeon hit the appraiser’s head once again. It was so strong that I thought it might break the desk.
Wow!
“Eww!”
“I don’t know!”
The blood that flowed from the appraiser’s forehead radiated bright light as it splashed in all directions.
Chow!
With this, I couldn’t even make an excuse that the Latasia potion was fake. When I hit the head twice more, the appraiser raised his head and shouted.
“You’re making a mistake now!”
“mistake?”
“you you! You haven’t forgotten that this is inside the adventurer’s guild, right?”
As the appraiser said, this artifact appraisal is a facility on the second floor of the Adventurer’s Guild. If you open the door and go out, you can meet other adventurers or union employees.
“If I just send a signal…”
“Oh, is that so?”
However, Kang Seung-hyun didn’t care and continued to throw the appraiser on the table. Blood gushed from the torn forehead.
bang!!!
“Aaaaaaaaa!!”
“Thank you for caring me.”
Seunghyun Kang used the skill with a smile on his face.
[Hemostasis]
At the same time, the blood flowing from the appraiser’s forehead stopped. The appraiser flinched with a surprised face.
“uh…?”
I just touched it and the blood stopped?
Of all the professions that appraisers know, there is only one person who can do such a job.
“I can’t stand it… Heel…”
“I forgot and didn’t tell you. My name is Healer Kang Seung-hyun.”
And again, he put the appraiser on the table.
thud!!
“Huh!!”
As his forehead hit the table, the blood that had stopped flowing began to flow again. Seunghyun Kang used [Hemostasis] again this time.
“You see? Just a touch like this can stop the blood.”
“Hey Healer?”
The appraiser’s eyes were stained with astonishment.
– There are a few adventurers that even relic connoisseurs famous for deceiving others will never touch. One of them is a healer who brings a sealed artifact.
‘Either a crazy person who hunts monsters as a hobby or a person with tremendous skills.’
He’s the one who shouldn’t be touched either way. If you’re a normal healer, you won’t get a sealed artifact.
-If you’re going to scam the healer, don’t ever get caught.’
It was something a senior appraiser once told me to keep in mind.
– What if the healer gets caught?
-Pound until death, then treat and cut again just before death.
A healer can heal the target as long as it doesn’t die. Their fear is that even if they beat someone, no evidence remains. Even if I protested against the adventurer’s guild with a normal body, it would be ignored.
-If he is a Healer from the Heretic Questioner, then just give yourself up and run away to prison.
They are monsters who torture people while laughing. It is better to admit guilt and go to prison than to be beaten hundreds or thousands of times.
-So, if the healer came as a guest, never touch it.
Normal healers are nothing to be afraid of, but healers looking for relics are monsters.
-‘I can’t believe he’s a healer…’
The way a relic appraiser recognizes a healer is similar to judging the value of a relic. You can tell by looking at the magical power and divine power coming out of the adventurer’s body.
‘If you want to be a bit strong, take it off in moderation.
The man named Kang Seung-hyun, who visited the store today, was the latter. His divine power was lower than that of a worm, and his magical power was so low that even he, a professional appraiser, could not feel it.
‘First of all, I’m not a healer. I don’t think there are many scars on the body for a swordsman…’
There’s no way you can become a wizard with a magic that crawls on the floor like that. Rangers always have an increasing number of weapons, so it’s easy to tell them apart.
‘Then you’re a rogue bastard. Are there other guys besides those bastards who hide weapons?’
The thief subject, the things that I put strength on my shoulders because I got a skill. If it was a log, it wouldn’t be strange if the divine power crawled to the bottom.
‘Should I empty my log pocket after a long time?’
The appraiser thought Kang Seung-hyun was a rogue, but never a healer.
‘This crazy… nonsense.’
I don’t know if Kang Seung-hyeon was the Heretic Questioner, but this was certain. Nom is a powerful healer who kills rare monsters and has tremendous healing abilities.
‘But what kind of healer do you use that kind of holy power… by any chance!’
It’s not that the divine power is at the bottom, but it’s so strong that you can’t notice it. Doesn’t this healer have divine power that surpasses his emotional abilities?
‘There is a possibility if it’s a healer who catches rare monsters.’
There is nothing to say since I came here alone, without any companions.
The appraiser realized with horror. That he really picked the wrong opponent.
“Please save me! I was wrong! I won’t do that again!”
As soon as the appraiser finished realizing it, he knelt down and prayed.
“I coveted it because it was a B+ grade artifact! I’m really sorry! I’ll give it back right away, so please be kind!”
Now it’s all about raining. I’d rather be in prison than go to prison.
“First, give me the relics.”
“Hey here! Here you are!”
The appraiser held out a rare artifact hidden in the counter.
Kang Seung-hyeon looked around at the artifact he received. Looking at it, it was no different from the C-class relic I received earlier.
“Isn’t it fake again? They all look the same to me.”
“I will give you an appraisal! right now!”
The appraiser lightly touched the rare artifact and removed it.
“The appraisal is over…”
The appraiser sagged after finishing the relic appraisal in 10 seconds.
“No, did you drag on to cheat something that only takes 10 seconds?”
“sorry! sorry!”
“I thought it took five minutes earlier.”
Kang Seung-hyeon was dumbfounded and looked at the appraiser.
“Artifact Grade B+ Item Grade A… The name is the Ring of Mental Concentration… Price estimated at 6.4 million gold…” Even
in this situation, looking at the description of the artifact, it seems that a pro is a pro.
“Remove the seal, too.”
“yes yes! I’ll solve it right away….”
As the appraiser touched the relic once again, the relic shimmered brightly and turned into a ring.
“Is this 6.4 million gold?”
Seunghyun Kang looked at the ring in disbelief.
‘How can you turn 6 million gold into 100,000 gold…’
Even if you don’t have a conscience, there are people who don’t have this.
Kang Seung-hyun wanted to lose one more. If I hit more here, I’d be beaten to death, so I held back.
“What is it and is it so expensive?”
I know it’s expensive, but looking at it, it doesn’t seem like 6 million gold. At first glance, it is a silver ring with a simple design. There is a feature that this or that sentence is engraved on the inside.
“The Ring of Concentration is a highly sought after item.”
Increases magic power and damage when equipped.
Also increases casting speed by 10%.
But more important than that is that it increases mental strength by 50%.
“As you may know, a wizard is doomed when his mental collapses.”
A ring that gives you the mental power to calm your mind in any situation when worn. It’s something that magicians can’t help but covet.
“When worn on it, you can unleash tremendous mental focus.”
You can give a speech in public without trembling, or if you are a student, you can focus on your studies without distraction. Thanks to that, he’s very popular with the sons of nobles.
“It’s not something that only adventurers are looking for, so the price is a bit on the high side.”
“is it so? Great for a rat drop item, isn’t it?”
Kang Seung-hyeon put the ring in his inventory with a satisfied smile. The appraiser smiled and opened his mouth without notice.
“If you sell them in our store, you can get up to 6.55 million gold…”
“Is that not enough?”
“sorry! It was a joke!”
bang!
The appraiser put his head on the table on his own.
I’ve got it covered, so I’ll take a look at it.
‘I think I’ll really die if I go further here…’
For a formal healer, just beat and fix it, but Kang Seung-hyun is a savage healer. You can’t beat and fix people until they die like other healers.
‘Since I got the artifact back, I’ll have to get out of here.’
Seunghyun Kang thought with a satisfied face. If he knew he was a wild healer, he would go wild, but a stupid relic appraiser has no way of knowing.
‘Because it’s famous for relic appraisers to be afraid of healers.’
If you don’t cheat in the first place, you won’t get hit.
“I can’t help it. I’m such a kind person that it hurts when I see others kneeling down to pray…”
Kang Seung-hyun said in a very brazen voice.
“I’m a good-hearted and kind healer, so I’ll only look at you this once.”
“thank you! thank you!”
“You’re not cheating again, are you?”
“Never! never! I swear by Ayver’s name!”
It seems sincere to see God’s name bet on it, but it can’t be. Relic connoisseurs are famous for not believing in religion.
“Then instead of watching.”
Kang Seung-hyun took a talisman containing a small life.
“I will take this.”
“sure! I have to give it to you! Take it!”
The appraiser nodded his head. The talisman containing a small life is only worth 80,000 gold.
‘Such rubbish was widespread. Take whatever you like. It’s enough to leave a town like this.’
The relic appraiser plans to pack up and run away as soon as Kang Seung-hyeon leaves. You can run away to another town and set up a new relic appraisal center.
“I don’t see any need for anything else. They all look like cheap artifacts.”
Seunghyun Kang looked inside the table.
There were artifacts of all kinds of colors rolling around inside. If it’s a precious relic, I wouldn’t store it this way, so it’s all cheap.
“Expensive and good things will be stored somewhere else… but coveting even that seems like a robbery.”
For that reason, Kang Seung-hyeon decided to take only one C-class artifact. The appraiser said thank you, but deep down he was thinking.
‘Then thank you for me. It costs a lot of money to move to another town.’
If you calculate the money to be paid for the Adventurer’s Guild and the cost of relocating your residence, tens of millions of gold will just fly away. It would be enough to make up for the lost money by robbing adventurers.
“instead.”
While the appraiser was finishing the calculations, Kang Seung-hyun opened his mouth.
“Please volunteer for a month as a way of reflecting.”
“Volunteer?”
“It’s an event for adventurers. In the sense that I will not do bad things and live a good life.”
< Relic appraisal fee free. Free of charge for unsealing. >
< Double when buying artifacts. Half price when selling artifacts. >
Kang Seung-hyeon ordered a special discount event for the appraisal center for the next month. That is the condition for forgiveness.
“yes? Twice the buying price, half the selling price? Teacher, if I sell like that, I become a beggar!”
The appraiser shouted with a puzzled face. However, Seunghyun Kang did not change his expression.
“An artifact appraiser must be famous for earning better than a healer. You’ll also receive support from the Adventurer’s Guild.”
“Teacher, no matter how hard it is, for a month…”
“If I get hit a little more, I’ll feel like doing it.”
“Oh no. I’ll do it! I’ll do it!”
The appraiser knelt down and begged. If you do this event for a month, you will have to wipe out all the money you have.
‘It’s wrong to move…’
The appraiser realized that he couldn’t run away from this town for a while.
“Then, have a good time at work.”
Kang Seung-hyun left the appraisal center, abandoning the distraught appraiser.
– “This is such an expensive thing.”
Seunghyun Kang muttered as he threw and received the ring of concentration. The 1.2 million gold I received earlier felt like a pittance.
‘I thought I lost a bit because I spent a lot of money this time. How much is the potion worth?’
If it wasn’t for the ring of concentration, the 1.2 million gold earned today would have been broken into potions.
‘I have no one to go with, but if I don’t drink on a day like today, when will I?’
Seunghyun Kang smiled with satisfaction and headed to the bar.
