Episode 23. Appraise the item.
Episode 23. Appraise the item.
The great black dragon Eileen Fritani was in a very good mood these days. The person who came in by mistake turned out to be a blessing in disguise.
‘I want to brag, but I have to hold back.’
I couldn’t let my mistake be discovered.
“Crumbling. Crumbling. Crumbling.”
Eileen hummed and went to the collection warehouse where the items collected by the ancestors of the Prytani family were stored for generations. The collection warehouse has a permanent preservation spell, so the items inside will always remain in that state.
Crash.
Erinn opened the door to the warehouse. The showcases inside the warehouse were lined with items that would easily fetch tens of billions of dollars the moment they were released to the earth.
Eileen passed the displayed items quickly and stood in front of the empty shelf.
And
rustling. rustling.
He placed his items on the shelf carefully so as not to break them and looked at them proudly.
The newly added collection had ‘Budget Washing Apple’ written in Korean.
It was a bag of washed apples that Sejun had given him dried roasted sweet potatoes. A bag of budget washed apples has been honored with a place in the collection window of the Pritani family, which boasts a history spanning millions of years.
“Hehe. I need to see what other delicious things humans can make.”
Eileen left the warehouse and sat in front of the crystal ball, watching Sejun’s cave.
“Oh! The cat merchant is back. He’s just trying to trick us humans again!”
The black dragon, Eileen Fritani, looked intently into the crystal ball to see if Theo might be deceiving Sejun.
***
Buzz.
Theo jumped out of the hole in the cave’s ceiling, announcing his appearance, and as soon as he heard the wings of poisonous bees, he shouted,
“We’re on the same side!”
After screaming, he ran over and got into Sejun’s clothes. And then he stuck his face out through the neck of Sejun’s clothes.
“what? “Your neck is stretched.”
“Poison bees are scary.”
“Don’t worry. They won’t come.”
It was okay because as soon as Theo appeared, the adult bees let the baby bees know that Theo was on the same side.
“Whew, I’m glad.”
Theo came out of Sejun’s clothes only after confirming that the poisonous bees had not pulled out their stingers.
“Did you do better than what I asked you to do?”
“Of course! I completed all the missions and sold out!”
Theo answered loudly.
“So, did the contract to deliver the news to our house go through?”
“That’s right. Here’s the contract.”
Theo handed the contract to Sejun.
When Sejun grabbed the contract,
he let out a roar.
As if the contract had been fulfilled just in time, the contract began to burn with a blue flame. It meant that Sejun’s well-being and 50 million won of money were conveyed to his family.
“Thank you for your hard work. Then, let’s settle the bill first.”
“Here it is! I spent 50 Top Coins as a down payment and 14.2 Top Coins for errands at the store.”
Theo handed it to Sejun and reported the amount he had spent.
“208.8 Topcoin?!”
Sejun was surprised by the amount, which was twice as much as he expected.
“This time I met Hogu and sold it at a high price!”
what? If you call a hogu a hogu, how much of a hogu are you?
Sejun, who did not know the transaction situation, was confused as to whether he should believe Theo’s words.
“Now here’s the incentive. It’s originally 10.92 Topcoin, but we’re giving a little more.”
Sejun looked condescending and handed 15 top coins to Theo.
“Thank you, Sejun! And I have this too!”
Theo must have wanted to be praised more, so he quickly got up and turned over his luggage.
Patter.
Seasonings, churros, and other items purchased on Sejun’s errand were pouring out of the baggage.
“This?!”
Rustling.
Sejun carefully took the powder in the transparent bag and ate it.
‘salty!’
A salty taste rushed into my mouth like a wave.
‘All I need is this… grilled fish…’
As I was running various simulations in my head about where to use the salt, I asked,
“How about it?”
Theo asked, confidently climbing onto Sejun’s lap.
“uh?!”
“Am I now representing Te?”
Only then did Sejun come to his senses, patting Theo’s head and looking at the items Theo had thrown out.
The only seasoning was salt and pepper. And 15 coffee mixes. At first glance, it seemed like there would be 20 Te Representative one-hour passes.
“Okay. I’ll appoint you as Te representative for 24 hours.”
Sejun decided to spend a little more time because Theo handled his request without a problem.
“It’s good!”
“Representative Te, you worked hard.”
Sejun picked up one of the fallen tuna-flavored chews, tore off the perforated end, and held it out in front of Theo.
Cheap chook chok.
While Theo was eating the churro, Sejun had Theo run an errand and looked at the items he had bought.
Pot Ladle Bowl Spoon Dagger. These were items purchased for cooking and eating.
Sejun picked up the pot first and looked at it.
[Cast iron pot]
It is made of cast iron and is sturdy.
The handle is covered with wood, allowing the user to use it comfortably.

“Private?”
Sejun picked up the ladle and looked at it.

The same went for the rest of the bowls and spoons. It was all private.
“That’s strange.”
Chop up. Chop up. Chop up.
Theo’s pace of eating the soup slowed down significantly as he was paying attention to Sejun.
Sejun lifted up the dagger one last time to examine it. I was planning to check this and ask Theo. Why is the creator private?
The dagger was considerably heavier than Sejun expected.

“Huh? Why is there a question mark on this?”
Where there should have been a description of the item, there were only three question marks.
chuck.
Since the usage restrictions were met, Sejun grabbed the dagger. And I cut some dried pie leaves that I had laid out for sleeping.
Suddenly.
The dried pie leaves, which were thin but hard as wood when hardened, were cut very easily. It seemed like it could be used well when cooking.
“Representative Te, where did you get this?”
“Huh?! I bought it at the blacksmith lottery corner.”
Theo was embarrassed and answered when Sejun, who thought he was going to question him about the producer’s secret, asked him something else.
“Gacha corner?”
“That’s right. I heard they were selling it for a pound at the blacksmith shop, so I bought it there.”
The blacksmith owner asked Theo for a dagger to use for cooking, so he told him to pick one from the lottery corner where they had equipment they couldn’t appraise.
“I want you to cut it!”
As he learned from Sejun, Theo attempted to cut three times at the draw corner, and when he drew once, he reduced the price of 20 top coins to 13 top coins and took a dagger.
“Okay. Good job.”
There is no need to know what kind of dagger it is. I wish I had bought it cheaply.
It was heavy, but all you had to do was cut it well.
At that time,
[the tower manager said that if you use unappraised items carelessly, you could get into big trouble, and said he would appraise them for you.]
“Really? Then do it.”
[Quest occurs.]
[Quest: Send an unidentified dagger to the tower manager.]
Reward: None.
Upon rejection: Unable to appraise
. [Additional quest occurs.]
[Quest: Gift dried sweet potatoes to the tower manager.]
Reward: Appraised dagger
Upon refusal: Unable to receive the dagger.
“…Do we really have to do this?”
[The manager of the tower says that items can only be sent back and forth by using quests.] [As the
manager of the tower, he strongly denies that it is because he wants to eat dried sweet potatoes.] They say a
strong negative is a positive, right?
[The tower manager wipes away the spit.]
[…!!!]
I knew that would happen.
[The tower manager says he has a slight desire to eat dried sweet potatoes, but it is true that a quest is necessary.]
“Okay.”
Sejun decided to appraise the dagger. Listening to the tower manager’s words, I felt uncomfortable using items I didn’t know the information about, and it wasn’t difficult to give him a few dried roasted sweet potatoes.
‘I was planning on giving it one more soon, but I guess I’ll just end it with this.’
“take it.”
The dagger disappeared from Sejun’s hand.
[Quest completed.]
[The tower manager uses the emotion skill on the dagger.]
[The tower manager says fortunately it is not a harmful item.]
“Really?”
Sejun took out a handful of dried roasted sweet potatoes that he had kept in the leather bag he kept the seed potatoes in by his bedside.
“Now stay here.”
The dried sweet potatoes disappeared from Sejun’s hand and a dagger appeared.
[Quest completed.]
[As a reward for completing the quest, an appraised dagger – Keynes’ training dagger was acquired.]
“Keynes’ training dagger?!”
The equipment was given a name. Then this is named equipment!
When you go out, the basic price of named equipment starts from hundreds of millions of won. Sejun hurriedly checked the dagger.
[Keynes’ training dagger]
This is a dagger used by Keynes, the Ranger of the Red Mountain, for early training.
To give weight to the dagger, black iron is used, making it heavy for a dagger.
When making a dagger, if you mix a small amount of mithril and sharpen the blade once, the dagger will last a long time.
Usage Restrictions: Lv 10 or higher, Strength 5 or higher
Creator: Blacksmith Leven (Black Hammer Dwarf)

Skill: [Skill Increase Lv. 1]
[Skill Increase Lv. 1]
The proficiency of all skills using this dagger increases 5% faster.
As it was a powerful emotional skill used by the tower’s manager, all information, including information about the creator that had been restricted by the Wandering Merchant Association, was revealed.
Thanks to this, Sejun’s thoughts of asking Theo about the producer disappeared completely.
Cheap chook chok.
Theo’s chewing speed increased again. I felt that Sejun was in a good mood.
And
“Sejun, please scratch my back too.”
Theo confidently demanded.
“okay.”
North North.
Sejun, who had been staring at Keynes’ training dagger as if he were fascinated, scratched Theo’s back and looked at Theo again.
what? I thought this guy was a hot guy… but Theo had other talents.
I can’t believe he had golden hands or golden paws… The world is fair after all.
Suddenly Theo’s paws looked so pretty.
“Would you like some more Te representative chur?”
Sejun said, touching Theo’s thick paws.
“Of course not. Give it to me quickly!”
Theo said arrogantly. He was saving his front foot for a special move, but Sejun touched his front foot first. And then a voice full of sympathy followed.
‘Fuhuhuhu. As expected, Park Se-jun, since you are human, I knew you would do that too.’
He was under his own spell. After all, all humans kneel at their own front feet.
what? What is this scandalous attitude?
Sejun felt uncomfortable at Theo’s arrogant attitude.
And the thought of reinstating Theo as CEO also faded.
Teo missed the opportunity to become Teh’s representative right in front of him.
Cheap chook chok.
Theo eagerly licked Churr, not realizing that his chance to become Te’s representative had passed.
At that time, someone who seemed uncomfortable with Theo, who was sitting on Sejun’s lap, approached.
Bye!
The black rabbit glared at Theo and shouted. That’s my place!
“What are you talking about? This is the representative’s seat!”
Bye!
The black rabbit responded by taking out his hammer. I don’t know! Come out now!
A war of nerves began between Theo and the Black Rabbit, who staked Sejun’s knee.
“Hehehe. Cute things.”
It was fun to watch the battle of nerves between the two, but now it’s time to sleep.
Come on.
“Let’s all sleep together.”
Sejun held Theo and the black rabbit tightly and lay down in his seat to prevent them from running away.
“What?!”
Pfft?!
At first, they struggled to get away from Sejun’s chest, but for a while, they fell into a deep sleep while listening to the sound of Sejun’s heart.
Day 161 of the shipwreck. Sejun, Theo, and the black rabbit slept soundly, sharing each other’s warmth.
