Episode 100
“Platinum Tier.”
As Damian left the Terra Kingdom branch of the Adventurer Guild, the badge in his hand illuminated the sky. The badge Maria had handed over shone as it reflected the dazzling sunlight.
Platinum Tier Certificate. So, the grade given to mercenaries belonging to the guild that are in the top 20%.
This qualification was difficult to obtain even for adventurers or mercenaries with tolerable skills, and it could be said that it was a qualification that allowed them to be treated the same as a country’s knight commander.
If it was within the guild branch rather than the head office, the position would be even higher.
Although the number of mercenaries belonging to the adventurer’s guild is said to be in the tens of millions, the area of Arcia boasts a planetary size of more than 148900000 km².
That was the reason why there were so many mercenaries with platinum-level adventurer licenses in the guild.
As a result, the difficulty of the mission was increased and the radius of action that could be taken as a mercenary was also dramatically widened.
In addition…
[Survivors of the battlefield]
A title given to those who have returned alive from a fierce battle from which they can never survive. It seems that there is a strong will that is not felt by ordinary people.
Effect:
– Increases critical hit by 5% for 30 seconds with a 5% chance when attacking.
– When attacked, there is a 5% chance to increase property resistance and status ailment resistance by 5% for 30 seconds. A title given to those who have escaped the grip of
death
several times. I feel like I can survive in any hopeless situation.
Effect:
– Increases attack speed, movement speed, casting speed, and stamina recovery speed by 10% when HP is below 50%.
– When HP is below 10%, attack speed, movement speed, casting speed, and stamina recovery speed increase by 100%.
– When HP is below 1%, attack speed, movement speed, casting speed, and stamina recovery speed increase by 400%.
The < Survivor of the Battlefield > title given when you catch 1,000 or more monsters without dying in a large-scale battle with more than 10,000 people.
From the threat of death recognized by the system within 48 hours to the title given to those who survived more than 100 times.
At first glance, it could be said that the profits he gained from the defense of Aldeon Fortress had an indescribably astronomical value.
Acquiring these two titles was a notable achievement, even excluding the promotion of certification and the reward approaching 7 million gold.
In the first place, the prerequisites for obtaining the titles < Survivor of the Battlefield > and < Fighting Death > were very difficult.
It was because even if he knew the conditions, it was not a title that could be easily attempted.
“Maybe this would be enough…”
“What is enough, you bastard!”
While Damian was sitting on the fountain in the square and examining the status window, Moongchi poked his head out of his arms.
Instead of the ragged equipment, it was from the Night Chaser set that Giorno had sent.
“I think it would be nice to leave here soon.”
“Pia? What do you mean?”
“It sounds like you did everything you could do here.”
As Moongchi tilted his head, Damian stroked his head and said.
It was literally.
Damian’s level reached a whopping 70, and he would have had to change his 3rd job if he substituted for normal class adventurers.
Moreover, considering that among the graduates of the Whispering Island tutorials, nearly half of the adventurers start on the eastern continent, including Terra.
It was safe to say that there was actually no reason to remain on Terra, where the surrounding area was spread out with relatively low-level monsters.
Even using warp gates was limited.
The murderous fees of the Leafre Merchants, who almost monopolize the entire transportation business, were not at a level that normal people could afford.
It was foolish to use an inefficient means of transportation no matter how much money one had.
It could be said that Damian stopped staying at the Golden Lark Inn for a long time for that reason.
‘Go to the middle. Farming is also limited here. There’s nothing good about staying in one place for a long time.’
Tring!
In other words, Damian stroking his chin while looking at Arcia’s world map wasn’t just about leveling up.
Just like the fact that we were able to know through the precedents of Amoebaking and Jeungsan Industries.
It was also to effectively protect oneself from a number of unspecified threats, including the Cross Dawn Society.
“To do that… I’ll have to reset the temp first.”
“That’s right, master.”
When Damian looked down at his body, Moongchung flapped his wings and said. The black leather armor set could be said to be a good item, but it was something that was somewhat unsatisfactory to just use.
In the first place, since the purpose of the Night Chaser set was for humans to endure in the extreme land, there were almost no buffs except for the enchantment that supports warmth and body homeostasis.
For Damien, who has a rare hidden class called Witch Doctor, there was no need to insist on the Night Chaser set, except that he had no clothes to wear.
Hiding the disposition of -9999999999 was because it didn’t matter what it was, as long as it covered the bloody red eyes.
“Is there any item that can be used…”
Drurreuk! Dreuk!
And while Damien narrowed his eyes while looking at the exchange in the system window.
The moment you scroll down to see if there is a useful sale through option search.
“evil!”
“…?”
While a group of processions passed in front of the plaza, one of the users started to stumble in front of Damian’s eyes.
He was a man in half-plate mail with a red badge on his chest.
* * *
“Where are this x sitting with your eyes on?! I can’t see the way people go! yes!”
When Damian raised his head, the man straightened up.
It seemed that his foot got caught in the stone beak of the fountain in the square.
To say that Damian stumbled, there was a difference of half a meter in width.
It was because not only Damian but many other users were sitting at the fountain in the plaza and spending their time.
“Ha— look at this bastard. Are you pretending not to know?”
Buggy Bukkake!
And while Damian was closing the exchange window, the man started approaching the fountain with a flushed face.
Looking at his momentum, he was ready to pull out the sword from his waist.
“what. What is it?”
“This X is passing by, and you walk.
As the man whimpered, the party members who had been walking in formation with him gathered.
It seemed that everyone in the group knew each other.
Aside from the fact that they were all wearing similar clothes and having casual conversations, they were wearing red badges on their chests, so they seemed to be members of the same clan.
In addition, if the pattern engraved on the red badge symbolizes a golden crown, it could be said to be a famous blood alliance that most people would not know about.
‘That mark is…’
Gold crown.
It was a pattern symbolizing the clan < Emperor >.
“You walked on purpose? this bastard?”
“Are you crazy?”
As Damian narrowed his eyes, the emperor’s blood members flirted and raised their lips.
It was a reaction as if he had found something interesting on the way.
It was also true that Emperor Blood’s stock price was soaring skyward due to the blood feud that had taken place not too long ago.
The opponent of that blood battle was the Blue Dragon Blood, which was ranked 53rd out of the top 50.
There weren’t many adventurers who could do anything about them in Terra Kingdom.
It was the same just because the average level reached level 70.
The Kingdom of Terra, which is considered the center of the East, was a place where many people came and went due to its geographical advantage.
Considering that, as mentioned earlier, the majority of newbies from Whispering Island set foot there.
It was because, to them, the 52nd ranked member of the clan and average level 70 users could be said to be gods who had reached a far-off stage.
“This bastard knows who we are now…”
“Go on your way. Don’t fight with a tough person.”
chin!
< Koharu >, a man staggered by a rock, tried to put his hand on his shoulder, but Damian grabbed his wrist.
It happened so suddenly that even Koharu put on a stupid face.
Of course, if this place was outside rather than the center of the Kingdom of Terra, the fist would have gone first, not the hand.
Even if it was a crime zone where it was possible, it was not a good choice to act hastily.
It could be said that the best thing to do was not to get involved with Koharu and the other party if they belonged to Emperor Blood.
‘…Jeong Yoo-min.’
flash!
As Damian thinks in his head now.
If he, who is not yet properly equipped, causes a conflict with Emperor Blood.
It was because even if he could train a few blood members right now, it would be difficult to deal with the storm that would come later.
“There seems to be a misunderstanding, but I didn’t cross my foot, and I tripped on a rock and fell…”
“You bastard, don’t let this go?!”
While Damian continued to speak while clenching his wrist, Koharu shook his arm.
Indeed, it was a physical fit worthy of a high-ranking clan member.
Even though Damian didn’t show his strength, Koharu showed agility enough to shake off his grip with a strength stat of 100.
“Oh haha.”
“Koharu~.”
“Is it the right way?”
In addition, when the circle of blood members surrounding the fountain responded with their eyes wide open as if in surprise, Koharu’s face turned red as if it were about to explode at any moment.
Even having your wrist grabbed by a guy who looked like a distant person must have been enough to hurt your pride.
He did not like the situation itself now that he had become an eye candy for blood members in the middle of the day.
“ha.”
“…ha?”
“hey. I say it again ….
”
Chanang!
As Damian sighed and tried to part his lips, Koharu drew his sword.
At the same time, it was a fleeting moment when the blade of the sword was brought to Damian’s eyes.
“Hey there!”
“It is forbidden to use weapons in the territory!”
Beep Beep!
If the guards of the Kingdom of Terra hadn’t been dispatched with the sharp sound of a flute that suddenly filled the plaza.
So, if it hadn’t been for the fountain in the square, which had been peaceful all of a sudden, hadn’t been sharpened like a blade.
The sword was so fast that even Damian might have died without moving.
“hey. Koharu.”
“Do it in moderation. Don’t make a fuss about it, dude.”
“Do you want to be photographed by elite hyungs?”
Then, as Emperor blood members grabbed Koharu’s shoulders, Koharu, who had been widening his eyes, bit his lip.
It was because among the ranks within the clan, which are generally divided into monarch-sub-lord-guardian knights-elite knights-average knights-apprentice knights, the rank they belonged to was just an ordinary knight.
“Hey, this is a cub. you come out This X-ballum. Follow me to the hall.”
Chaeeng!
Before long, Koharu swung his sword to the floor and groaned.
