Late. Tamer's day.

I crawled out from under the bridge, dashing towards the small square to the south.

For what it's worth, Mr. Alyssa's mansion was still open. I speak to Mr. Alyssa quickly and take out the fruit I just got.

"Evening."

"That, there you are. What's wrong with you? Could you have purchased something awesome? Nah."

"No, information or whatever...... In the meantime, I want you to look at this guy."

"Ho."

Mr. Alyssa turns her eyes round and looks at the fruit of the watery tree I gave her. Only the cat beast man has a longitudinal pupil and those eyes are really like cats.

"How did you get it this time of year?

"At this time of year? So, when the time is right, is it easy to get it?

"Every April, the waterfront trees bear fruit. It seems that NPC is harvesting that, and only in a short period of time will there be an item called 'Fruit of ripe watery trees' in the NPC shop. I've seen it before because it was set for March-April during the beta test. I wonder if it was 3000G each. Wouldn't it be cheaper as a rarity 3 item?

"Does that mean that when you say rarity 3, you can buy it within it? And it's pretty affordable."

"I wonder if it will."

"So you're saying this isn't such a great item"

Disappointing. Disappointing, Spirit! If this were the case, fine fertilizers would have been better.

"Oh, but you know what? That's just the fruit of a waterfront tree, isn't it? I've never seen that before. Essentially, because it's ripe fruit that lines up in the shop. Some players took their own harvest of falling fruit, but what they got was ripe fruit."

"You're not going to change either. Instead, it's more effective when it's ripe."

"For eating directly or using it as an ingredient for medicines. But for you, maybe it's better if you're not ripe?

"What do you mean?

"No ripe fruit can be seedlings."

I see. Were you? That's Mr. Alyssa. You know my taste.

"Then this guy can be planted in the field...?

"Sorry, I don't get it. I've never seen anything that's not ripe, and I don't know if a water tree can be planted in a field."

"No, that's fine. I'll try."

"Let me know when you're planted"

"Yes, then..."

"Wait."

Mr. Alyssa stopped me from going to the field. Thanks to my friend registration, it looks like we have easy contact between players. Mr. Alyssa is grabbing my arm from behind.

"What?

"What? Isn't that right? You look stubborn."

That's crazy, my avatar should be pretty beautifully shaped. So you're saying it's creeping out from the inside?

"Excuse me. I totally forgot."

"That, I want to know where you got it. Well, I can imagine if you tie it to the announcement you just made. Or don't you want to tell me?

"No, it's not like that."

"Then tell me! Now!"

"Close, close!

Mr. Alyssa put his face close, and it was amazing. I'm so scared, Mr. Alyssa, when you want to know something new.

"The Spirit gave it to me at the altar underground."

"More details!

Looks like Mr. Alyssa doesn't know, after all. The announcement just went off, and it looks like I'm really the only one who's been able to spot it.

Even if I say it's covered up, if you go under the bridge, you can see the door, and the keys, too, if you take a garbage collection quest, you get it.

Alyssa looks truly surprised when she tells me what happened until I got to the door.

"Only on the first Thursday of April can that altar enter through the basement of the Adventurer's Guild. Besides, I don't really know the human conditions under which I can get in. People who meet the criteria will only be given the skill of" Invitation of the Tree Spirit "on that day, and only those with it will be able to enter the altar."

What an obscure story. I just found out that it's pretty awesome to be able to go like that altar.

"Am I the primary discoverer of the door?

"Probably. You are truly amazing, Ute, by the way. Isn't God in this game loving you?

"I don't think so."

If they really loved me, they would be at the forefront of the offense by now, along with the transcendentally strong Mons.

"Hey, you're selling me this information, right?

"'Cause you already talked about it."

"As a matter of policy, we don't sell non-payment information. If you say you don't want to sell it here, I'll keep it on my chest for a while."

No, that's why I'm here.

"You want to make sure of a few things. Next Thursday, can you take me to the altar?

"It's okay."

"Then I'll give you 1000G for the advance and 4000G if you take me to the altar. What do you say?"

"No, no, it's enough. Can I have that?

"Then we have a deal. It doesn't involve direct offense, but it sounds like a pretty interesting event. If anyone else could make it to the altar, it would be a lot of noise, wouldn't it?

Sure, if I was in someone else's shoes, I'd pay for it. But I might want to go.

"And there's this stuff, too."

I also show videos I've taken in hopes of corroborating the information.

"Video of the Spirit?

"Yes, I took it for once."

"Ha, that's awesome... Are you going to publish this?

"What shall we do? Honestly, the bulletin board is read-only, even if they say it's public..."

I often hear stories about people not putting up videos and information like this on bulletin boards and getting hung up for keeping information secret.

If you think about it, you should publish it. I mean, I just look at bulletin boards, and I've never written or anything, have I? LJO has in-game bulletin boards available only to players, but still has high hurdles.

"Then why don't you leave it with me? I'll put you up on our page, okay?

"Is that good?

"Yeah. Because in the first place, that's also what early ear cats are for. Gather information that is hidden from players under various circumstances and disclose it to a large number of players. Some players, like you, have not been able to release information for reasons such as annoyance or guidance to the bulletin board, not for their own greed."

In other words, bring new information to Early Ear Cat - you can buy it - then Ear Cat releases the information - the selling side doesn't have to do the hassle up work.

Is that how it works? That's convenient.

"Please"

"So the video is 1000G."

"Huh? 'Cause you already got 1000G, right?

"This is the only video that looks good. Plus, it's like advertising our pages. I just can't take it."

Well, people who come to watch this video will be watching the Early Ear Cat page at last. Surely it has some publicity effect? The information I originally thought was free, so thank you very much.

"If that's the case, I'll have it"

"Yeah. I want more information on the title too ~. Protecting the Spirit of the Great Tree? I'm curious."

"Well, fine."

"Every time! 1000G, then."

"Yes. It's just not the end of it."

……

"What are those eyes?"

"No, I wouldn't be surprised to hear anything else, would I? What?"

"This is it. Do you understand? In some cases, I buy information."

I tried to show Alyssa the fire crystals, water crystals, earth crystals, and wind crystals I got paid for the title. Then Mr. Alyssa is surprised to open her eyes.

"This is... not an attribute crystal! What's wrong?

"Something about an altar release bonus."

"This is amazing. Extremely rare in the 3rd area as well. It barely produced even beta. Soil crystals are rare drops of gnomes, but I've never seen anything else."

"Seriously?

"Yeah. Are you willing to sell this? I'll give you 30000G per"

"Huh? A joke?

"I mean it."

"Eh."

120,000 if you sell them all? That's all we can do with it. No, but I do. That's all rare items could be worth using. You can always sell it. Let's keep it for now.

"No, I'm not willing to sell it for now"

"Too bad. But if you're willing to sell it, please do it at home."

"Of course then. So, what's the information fee for the crystals?

"I don't need it. Even the title of immortality made me a lot of money."

"Huh? You're already selling information on that title? You haven't finished the verification yet, have you?

"Yeah, but if you're waiting for verification, it's in four days, right? It's too late for that. Things that go so far that most people can't recreate characters"

Is that right? That's the fourth day I got it. It will take another 4 days to verify. Eight days in total. If we had eight days in the game, we'd all go a long way. The hurdle to character recreation would go up.

"I've been selling it since I told him it wasn't verified properly. I'm going to get 1000G in advance and 3000G in late payment if I can get it right."

"But when you recreate it and it's a new avatar, you don't know who it is, do you?

"It's okay because recreating doesn't change your ID. I'll make the unpaid guy pay for whatever he does...... duh duh duh"

That's what I say and laugh at. I saw Alyssa, and I was so determined not to go against this guy.
