“What’s this? You’re probably not trying to joke around . ”
“Talk after trying it on first . ”
“Hm…… I will pray that this is not a pointless prank . ”
An Gyu-b.u.m pa.s.sed the socks to Jeon Min-jeong . As she put them on, her body seemed to instantly get taller . An Gyu-b.u.m inspected her with a surprised face .
“Did you become taller?”
“It, it seems so . ”
She, who had gotten much taller than An Gyu-b.u.m, lowered her head as if embarra.s.sed .
She was already taller than An Gyu-b.u.m originally so they now almost looked like brother and sister .
The guy opened his mouth with an excited face .
“How much do you want?”
“10m . ”
“Deal . ”
I’ve been called a person that’s easy to use a lot in the past .
There was more I gave away than I received and that felt better for my heart .
I felt like I had to repay the person if I receive something you see . That’s why I’m more at peace by being on the short end of the stick .
It was better to erase debts of others .
However, this guy was on another level compared to me .
No matter how much money you have . It’s obvious that you would go bankrupt some day if you gave out as much money as one called .
Of course it didn’t have anything to do with me so I selected another item from the store .
Headband of Growth (1) : Hair becomes abundant .
“This is?”
“Should I say it’s a headband that cures baldness?”
His eyes went wide at my words . It was a fact that there wasn’t a single item that cured baldness among the many beautification items .
“To, to think that such a thing existed…… . ”
An Gyu-b.u.m received the headband with trembling hands .
“This really has an effect right?”
“Of course . ”
“This is for the price as well…… . ”
“This one’s double . ”
“Urg…… Fine . ”
An Gyu-b.u.m nodded .
I started digging the store after earning 40m in one minute including Baek Gyeong’s head .
An Gyu-b.u.m looked at me with a nervous expression and opened his mouth .
“I, I will stop here . ”
“Hm? Why? There’s still other stuff . ”
“This is the limit of what I can purchase at this moment . It will be difficult for me to deposit a greater amount than this . ”
“Hm…… I see a rich family’s successor doesn’t have much power . ”
“I’m just saying that it’s difficult immediately . If you come to the research laboratory a week later I will receive as much as you want . ”
“Hm . That’s a shame . I still have a lot . ”
“Is a discount possible if I buy a lot at once?”
“There’s no way that’s possible . ”
This kind of person tasted best when ripped off perfectly .
We ended the trade at that and I confirmed that the money got deposited .
I’m not sure if I said this before but this kind of large scale trade is normally impossible to do between individuals .
However, the only case where this is possible is when it’s a account guaranteed by the Hunter Market .
In such a case, the tax isn’t payed immediately when items are bought and sold .
It’s because the amount of tax would be immense if tax was applied for each trade . A general income tax would be applied all at once after all the trades are finished .
That’s why hunters turn monetary a.s.sets into item fund states when it becomes time to pay the general income tax .
The tax is minuscule because the net income is 0 you see . They can’t make people pay tax just because they have items you see .
In the first place, rich people use this a lot as tax evasion because trade is free unlike real estate .
The government seems to be trying to solve this one way or another but the ones seeing the most profit from item trade is the Hunter Market and the tax they pay is mind boggling so they couldn’t do anything about it .
“We should go our ways soon . ”
An Gyu-b.u.m said so who moved his body around a bit after recovering .
“I think we can go that way . It seems to be the way Baek Gyeong came in but it was a path that opens normally once the data from the altar is successfully retrieved .
Now that I think about it, how did Baek Gyeong know about the ruin and come all the way in here?
The answer to that question came from An Gyu-b.u.m .
“The ruins use a great amount of electricity after all . If it’s Baek Gyeong who’s sensitive to electromagnetic waves it wouldn’t be that difficult for him to figure it out . ”
“Thanks a lot . Can I call you if there’s something I’m curious about?”
“Whenever you want . ”
“But how are you planning on leaving? You couldn’t have walked all the way here . ”
An Gyu-b.u.m took out a snow mobile from midair instead of replying .
I asked if he was a manual like me just in case but it seems he’s using another dimensional s.p.a.ce called inventory . It was impressive in and of itself so I couldn’t help being a bit surprised .
Having a s.p.a.ce large enough to put in a car was truly showing off after all .
I started thinking that the reason An Gyu-b.u.m gave away so much was because he had enough money to do so .
I handed him a Snow Chain from the Delta Store as a service .
I earned a lot so this much wasn’t much .
The guy then put away the snow mobile and put the Snow Chain on a van . What in the world was the size of that inventory?
As the guy left I destroyed the remaining stone statues and left the ruins after collecting all the ores and Strengthening Stones .
With this, all the objectives for coming to New Alaska were achieved . No, it was enough to call it overachieving .
Either way I got on the van with Edward and slowly got going .
No, I tried to get going .
Vrmmmm!
At that moment, I confirmed a van heading this way with great force .
It was none other than An Gyu-b.u.m’s van .
The effect of the Snow Chain was definitely good . To brake on icy ground as if on asphalt .
No, that’s not what’s important .
I opened the window and called out to An Gyu-b.u.m .
The guy also opened his window and looked this way .
“What’s up?”
“There’s some bad news . ”
“What is it?”
“Baek Gyeong appeared again . ”
“Huh . Why is that appearing again? Are they all shoved into Alaska?”
It was tiring now to be honest . It’s fine with fighting it twice, why again…… .
No, wait .
I looked at the black dots that could be seen on the horizon and opened my mouth towards An Gyu-b.u.m .
“No way . Are those all Baek Gyeong?”
“Probably?”
“What in the world…… . ”
I looked at the dots that were approaching with great speed with a fl.u.s.tered expression .
The numbers that I could count with my eyes was dozens .
No, the numbers were increasing .
“No way…… Are all the Baek Gyeong’s here?”
“Probably?”
“You c.u.n.t . Stop playing around . Why are all of those coming here?”
“It seems the entirety of New Alaska was being explored by sending Baek Gyeong . Thinking about it, it’s a matter of course . It would have been impossible to find the ruin on this large piece of land with one or two after all . ”
“If it’s like that then notice it faster!”
“I don’t think this is the time to argue though . ”
“d.a.m.n it . ”
The figure of the Baek Gyeongs approaching at high speed could be seen more clearly now .
They numbered at least 90 .
It can be said that all the Baek Gyeongs are headed this way .
The force with which they kicked off the ground was so great that the icy ground shook .
I hurriedly turned the van around and started driving at max speed . An Gyu-b.u.m’s van followed right behind .
Two vans and the 90 Baek Gyeongs that followed from behind .
The chase soon ended .
“Ah . G.o.d d.a.m.n it . ”
A huge cliff could be seen in front . Beyond the large icy ground that fell perpendicularly, the ocean that sparkled blue could be seen .
Edward calmly stared at the ocean and opened his mouth .
“So I die now . ”
“Don’t spout nonsense . You b.a.s.t.a.r.d . ”
“Can’t we escape by flying in the sky?”
Edward said .
“If we can dodge the Hadron Cannon that is . ”
Even I who could fly by stepping on the Dancing Sword didn’t have the confidence to do that .
It might have been possible if it was one or two but escaping by flying in the sky with that many Baek Gyeongs as the opponent?
It would be better to enter the ocean .
Ah . Wait a minute .
It didn’t seem like that bad of an idea .
An Gyu-b.u.m’s van belatedly stopped beside mine .
His expression was quite a sight .
“Can I ask you to save me?”
“Shut up, man . Did someone tell you to bring such things?”
I let out a long sigh .
I should save him for now . He had talent in angering people but it would be a shame to let him die here .
“Get rid of that van for now and get on . ”
“What are you…… . ”
“If you talk back one more time I’m leaving without you . ”
Before I barely ended my words An Gyu-b.u.m and Jeon Min-jeong got off the van and put the van into the inventory .
I say this again but that inventory is an item that exists in another dimension and is part of the old system .
Just that even the size of a normal bag is tens of billions so I had no idea how many of those inventories he stacked up .
I had no idea why such a guy only had level 8 equipment . It would be fine to decorate himself with level 10 items .
It wasn’t time to think about such things right now .
An Gyu-b.u.m who entered the van and closed the door looked around the unusually wide interior with a bewildered expression .
“What . How is this place so wide…… . ”
Screeech!
“Huh?”
“Hah?”
As I stepped on the pedal An Gyu-b.u.m stumbled and collapsed into Jeon Min-jeong’s embrace .
I feel like something was reversed but it was still a rather familiar scene .
It kind of looked like I was looking at Soo-ah and I .
What the h.e.l.l was I thinking about .
The wheels with Snow Chain ran on the cliff while chewing up the icy ground roughly .
An Gyu-b.u.m’s voice could be heard from behind .
“Wait! Are you crazy!”
“Shut up and watch!”
“Ahhh?!”
The van rode the sharp New Alaskan wind and rose into the air .
“…… It flew?”
Jeon Min-jeong and An Gyu-b.u.m opened their mouths at the same time .
As they said, the van pa.s.sed the cliff and was flying in the sky .
And in the next moment .
It fell .
“Ahhhh! It wasn’t!”
“Who said it flew? Stop fretting and prepare for the impact . ”
They were both not wearing seat belts so there will probably be quite some impact .
Of course, the van will block the impact first and the items they’re wearing will block the damage second so they wouldn’t get hurt that much .
The moment the van fell on the surface .
With a tremendous explosion water gushed up dozens of meters into the air .
Even if it was on water, the amount of impact a van has while falling from 100 meters is immense .
The reason why people lose consciousness when falling from a bridge is because the impact upon cras.h.i.+ng into the surface of the water is that great .
Since a van this heavy tell the force of the impact is difficult to imagine .
And the van slowly started sinking into the ocean .
It felt weird looking at how I was sinking into the ocean in real time .
Edward opened his mouth while leaning on the seat .
“What are you thinking? This van is great but it wouldn’t be able to run in water . ”
“Ah . About that . It’s difficult in water but it’s possible to run on water . ”
“What’s this? You’re probably not trying to joke around . ”.
“Talk after trying it on first . ”.
“Hm…… I will pray that this is not a pointless prank . ”.
An Gyu-b.u.m pa.s.sed the socks to Jeon Min-jeong . As she put them on, her body seemed to instantly get taller . An Gyu-b.u.m inspected her with a surprised face

Of course it didn’t have anything to do with me so I selected another item from the store
Headband of Growth (1) : Hair becomes abundant
“This is?”.
“Should I say it’s a headband that cures baldness?”.
His eyes went wide at my words . It was a fact that there wasn’t a single item that cured baldness among the many beautification items
“To, to think that such a thing existed…… . ”.
An Gyu-b.u.m received the headband with trembling hands
“This really has an effect right?”.
“Of course . ”.
“This is for the price as well…… . ”.
“This one’s double . ”.
“Urg…… Fine . ”.
An Gyu-b.u.m nodded
I started digging the store after earning 40m in one minute including Baek Gyeong’s head
