Mangem's Paladin

Kim Seon-woo was waiting at the entrance to the dungeon.

Kim Jong-hmm was nervous and frozen, and Kim Seon-woo opened his mouth.

"LV.58? Last time I saw it, it was definitely 55 · · · · · How already?"

This encounter was not foreseen. Gunwook replied in a panic.

"I'm a little aggressive about hunting."

"Do you think it's okay to jump so aggressively? It's a body hunt. Not with a mouse and a keyboard, but with a keyboard and a mouse."

"I know."

"Uh, you're being sarcastic. It's me. It's over forty, so I know it. You think reading is a hobby? Then you'll be good at other things besides fighting. Good. Your envelope has finally been set."

"Bonito?"

It was difficult to recall the meaning of the word. It was not a difficult word, it was a word that could not be used in everyday life.

And Kim Seon-woo naturally explained.

"The area. Don't you know the land that the knights give their share of the tax? Articles are the main source of income."

I also knew the concept of Bonobo. The medieval knight took the land from his master and kept expensive horses and macho with his income. It's a fairly well-known concept.

However, I could not imagine that such a concept would be mentioned after the keyboard and mouse.

With Gunwook frozen, Kim Jong-hmm suddenly bowed down and greeted him politely and fled like a giant paladin.

"See you next time!"

Moreover, therefore, I wanted to run away, but I couldn't.

Seeing Kim Jong-hmm leaving, Kim said.

"Come with me. I'll show you."

Gunwook followed behind Kim Seon-woo like he was half possessed. The witch walks along with a single smile beside her. It seemed good for the witch to have a bonnet. It's the partner's feelings, anyway.

Kim Seon-woo explained while walking.

"Your selection of Bonto was poisonous. It's the first time a Lv.50 squad has been knighted. You know the knight has a duty to protect his land."

I also knew what to protect the land from. Monsters, we had to defeat their ground invasion. It was a concept familiar to Gunwook as well. Thirty years ago.

There are underground caverns connected to the ground. The dungeon is an instant dungeon, and the main activity of Gunwook thirty years ago was the processing of an instant dungeon in the city. With the support of the army, I used to exterminate monsters in the Gunwook dungeon.

And thirty years later, the role was shaped to take the players' full place. That was also done in a medieval way.

Gunwook was submerged in his thoughts, and Kim Seon-woo was continuing to explain.

"But even monsters that can't be defeated in the 50s often come out of the dungeon? Let's give you a zone where low-level monsters usually come out that you can handle, so the knights are already there. The area where the weak monsters come out is relatively safe.

It's a rich neighborhood. It's a high-end business. Competition to take over that land because you can collect a lot of tax. I'll tell you, the envelope for you is not that kind of evacuation zone. "

Moreover, it had nothing to do with taxes that could be collected immediately. Knight Bontogo was just embarrassed.

Still, I politely put in a chum bird.

"Yes?"

"It's just the right area. One of them is empty. The old man in charge is retired. It's not where high-level monsters come from, but it's not a safe place, so it's not a rich neighborhood. Don't expect income."

"Where is it?"

"Livestock."

It was near the house. Gunwook was terrified to walk that way.

Gunwook takes off his armor, but Kim Seon-woo walks with heavy weapons. Because of the sound and appearance, everyone around was looking at this side.

Gunwook was very concerned with their gaze, but Kim Seon-woo did not notice.

Kim Seon-woo seemed to be delighted by people's fearful gaze. Alternately he pointed to the street with them and continued to speak.

"Originally, taxes were a system that allowed local lords to automatically repay a certain percentage of the gold they earned, but it wasn't really that convenient. Residents often trade in cash or cash instead of gold. I often have to reap it myself. Stores run by NPCs.

That Olive department store is your business, so don't touch it. All right? In the first place, a big business like that usually belongs to the Duke, so you'll be stuck in a duty-free shop. Oh, you can collect taxes for a restaurant like that. That's gonna make a lot of money. And those farmer butterflies, they pretend

You look poor, don't you? "

Kim Seon-woo pointed to the people who were doing Homizil. The man who was struck by the scourge retreated. Those who were working next to him were scrambling, hoping that the knights would pass by quickly.

With a humble expression, Gunwook trembled, turning his gaze away from them.

"Yes, you look poor as I said."

"It's not really poor. It's not just farming, it's just farming around the house in the middle of nowhere. Even with such a large number of residents, they have very little surplus income, so they can hardly collect taxes."

Gunwook asked, feeling guilty, as if he had been assigned to Nawabari.

"So how much tax do they have?"

"You can reap, you can't reap."

Gunwook was a little surprised at what he said.

"Do you mind if I don't reap?"

"Those poor bastards barely spend any cash. I trade for rice and I get paid for rice. I ripped it off and turned it into gold. I couldn't pull it once. So there's a lot of farmers who don't collect real taxes."

Kim Seon-woo explained that it was one of Incheon's great points. That generous tax rate policy is what Duke Incheon's generosity looks like, and I think Incheon is a discriminatory part of the province.

"In some provinces, if farmers apply low tax rates, they don't notice or press the surrounding articles because they're disgusting. Then even a knight who didn't intend to tear up against the poor would be forced to raise the tax rate. Players when they get their taxes from the poor.

Even though it looks like it's an income. "

"Why did you notice?"

"The provinces have such a flavor. What are you, a hobo if you treat NPCs well? You know why the NPCs systematically hunted players in the 2010 's?"

"I know. I heard the players finally won."

"There was a lot going on in the process. Soldiers who were injured in conscription said to break into the house and give away the hidden players and knock their families into a group. So the players didn't hate the NPCs back then. They were all knighted and became lords."

"Incheon?"

"There's less hate in it. No, not in the first place. Look. The buildings on Incheon Street, where were they destroyed? Do you see any signs of combat and destruction?"

Gunwook quickly swept the surrounding streets and replied.

"No, it's fine."

"This is all thanks to the Incheon player. Black Tower, you know?"

Of course Gunwook knew. It's the party that was there.

"I know."

Kim Seon-woo praised him for his knowledge of history.

"Other local players couldn't stop the Black Tower and died in the aftermath. But only the Incheon players stopped it. That's why people didn't die. That's why, in Incheon, players were responsible for their deaths, and there was no hunting for them. In other provinces,

It was unfortunate that players versus NPC couldn't kill each other, but Incheon was just peaceful. With the peace that followed, the city buildings and people were preserved and Incheon became the best on the Korean Peninsula. "

At that moment, Gunwook's achievement was his own. It was not for humble reasons that he did not boast.

The feeling of climbing up the hill stopped his mouth. The emotion of having something meaningful in his deeds covered his chest.

It was Kim Seon-woo who broke that touch.

"Incheon is the best land anyone has ever admitted. The population is the most, governance is kind-hearted, and Incheon is not the only Duke of Koguryo."

Upon hearing that, Gunwook felt the cold water in his mouth.

'A good land to live in?'

Moreover, it was not to be seen.

With the majority of the poor around, I couldn't agree with the assessment. I couldn't remember the streets of Incheon that were rich.

'And the replacement for Gogur'

I knew it was the name of a new country on the Korean peninsula. It was just ridiculous to hear it at any time.

They continued to walk to the front of a station in Gangsok.

"There are mainly instant dungeons near Gangseo Street Station. There are monsters on the subway, but the mobs often dig out. And it was Cobalt who took over the interstate. So the Kobolts are mainly in the immediate dungeons around here."

"Cobalt?"

"Yes, Kobolt. It's a lot of shit. Everyone hates the LV.1 mobs because they shoot Orc mercenaries, they shoot machine guns, they blow up landmines, they fuck themselves up. I heard the Kobolts blew up a bunch of TNTs and killed an LV.100 Crusader, but that's probably true. It's really dangerous.

Don't go in there to get the Kobolts yourself. "

Gunwook trembled.

"Didn't I have to protect this area?"

"We have to protect it. But you don't have to do it yourself."

"So?"

"Give it to others. There's nothing I can do to force it. The Kobolts are low-level mobs, no matter how dangerous they are, so if they get shot, they're dead. There are a lot of people who want to catch them and get EXP. Specifically, LV.1, or NPCs that want to be LV.1."

Gun Wook immediately remembered Oh Seung Hun. Poor boy who was shot by Kobolts. His screams were good in his ears every night.

With Gunwook's face hardened, Kim Seon-woo continued.

"I'm overflowing with people who want to raise their status. It's overflowing. So, not you, let the chiefs fight. That's what helps them. Do you understand?"

Gunwook had no answer. His face was half rotten. It was rude, but Kim Seon-woo just laughed.

'I have to say, the one who says, "Yes, the afterglow can't be so dizzy.'

There was an East Office where he continued to move forward. Kim Seon-woo said.

"That's the final destination."
