The Skill Collector

"That's something you have an unexpected use for..."

Skills that I thought would end up selling to no one in my lifetime sold for a pretty good value.

A certain nobleman bought it for me, but I was convinced to hear its use.

"Please, sell me that 'taste tone deafness' skill. I don't mind asking for the amount I want!

If you were talking about stories and buying away 'taste tone deafness' skills while misleading the details, an aristocratic man who reacts unexpectedly and puts his hand on my shoulder and looks straight from the front.

I didn't know anyone would pay a fortune for this skill...... I doubted my sanity, but when I asked why I really wanted it, I felt sorry for it and decided to sell it to them happily.

"I'm your son-in-law. My wife can't lift her head. You wave your arms for me every day for what you can leave to the cook... it tastes terribly bad. But I don't have the courage to point that out, the days I eat patiently. With that, you might be able to eat that dish too!

This is what a change of mind is about.

If the taste of the eater goes wrong, does that mean it will taste good?

I was confident in my knowledge of skills, but it's interesting because I can come across this kind of idea when I'm in this business.... I'm sure he's true.

Speaking of which, his wife, who made me buy that 'flavor tone deafness', seems to have recently raised her cooking arm to a level where she can also eat the flavor deliciously.

Overcoming negative skills on your own can wake you up to relevant new skills, so why don't you go check it out next time?

It was an unexpected extraordinary income. Sometimes it's a little extravagant today.

Instead of the usual inn, when I take a trip to the square... the scent of appetite tickles my nostrils.

"Welcome! How about a skewer!

"Some warm soup."

I have a good voice of prestige. A desperate caller is dotted in the square.

Dewstores... that's not bad either.

I was thinking about a fancy lunch, but I don't hate these unpretentious dishes either. Sometimes men don't even care about their eyes around them, and sometimes they want to eat meat crudely.

Give yourself an excuse for a light change of policy and peek into a nearby outdoor store.

A cheerful young man is grinning and roasting meat to see. Bandana on forehead for shrinkage. Are you from the South because the color of the skin is a little black?

"There you go. My big merchant brother, he's so delicious."

Big merchant. That's one of the expressions we use to compliment our guests.

My current outfit is a sturdy backpack, trousers with thick fabric and lots of pockets. A typical pedestrian outfit.

"Big Merchant" is the classic dialogue when dealing with merchants.

If it's an adventurer, if it's a "brave man there" female, it's like "princess there".

"Sounds delicious. Can I have two?

"Maido, come on."

It's an unusual way of speaking, but this is a euphemism of Sikiu, the country of merchants.

A country where many cheerful and chatty people live and should be visited once if they want to be merchants.

I've been there a few times, too.... Every time I go, I'm buried in a turbulence of words, and I'm overwhelmed.

It's best to go to that country when you want to buy out your language skills.

"Watch out from the heat. Is there a collector?

"Yes, Mr. Maechir."

He is cheek-baked looking at a merchant he knows who is surprised by the great shock.

Oops, I like the baking and the unique sauce flavour.

I knew I knew him, but I tried to treat him with an unfamiliar face.

"Mr. Tea Eye. I don't know. Say it right. Then I'll put one aside."

"Because I didn't want to get in the way of business. Since when have you been transferred to open-air business?

"What are you talking about? Wye is an informant at the root. This is also tentative. It's delicious. When you're eating, your mouth is light. I'm confident in the flavor."

"Yeah, it did taste good"

"Do it, do it"

I expected it from the beginning because I have 'cooking' in my skills, but even though I'm just a cheerful brother in appearance, the funny thing about him is that he's versatile and clever.

"That's what I did. I haven't grasped the example yet, I'm impatient. Why don't you take my place, you know what I'm talking about? From here, to the northeast, there is a village known for the cultivation of horses, but from there, bandits have recently appeared in the streets further east."

"I've been through it a few times, but it's a noisy story"

"If you do a collector, you can afford it. Now that the crusaders have been formed, why don't you go and collect your skills? Rumor has it the leader has pretty good skills."

"Right. I'll think about it."

Do you buy your skills first to save crusaders time and get them to slap you where you've gotten weaker?

As much as you get executed and waste your skills, it would be more beneficial for me to buy them out.

"We met here on the edge of something, too, or have a treat."

"Thank you"

It's rare and generous of you to really serve me.

I'm a pretty cynical guy when it comes to money, but I guess I'm in a good mood today.

"You can go out with a collector. You'll be fine."

"I've only known you for about three years."

"In three years, the newborn will be able to walk well enough. This is pretty amazing, don't you think?"

Often when I mention something this roundabout, I mouth every impossible favor.

That's understandable over the years, as he says.

"Well, welcome. Well, that's what I'm talking about."

"Wait. Come on, don't do that. Nothing's higher than free."

After all, wasn't he the kind of man to give it to for free?

I'll listen to you waste about one skewer.

"Just a little bit."

"Oh dear. So I don't know, but I have one skill I want you to sell."

"Oh, what is it? I specialize in buying before construction, but now I do. If it's a skill you own, you can even pay for it."

I understand who Maekil is. Besides, this isn't the first time I've sold him my skills. Instead of a request fee, I have a past where I have sold useful skills for gathering information.

"I've heard rumors lately. Far east there are strange skills that can produce gold."

"Maybe that's in alchemy"

"That or that! With that, you can make whatever you want!

I want you to stop pressing me with spit all over you. Give me something nice because I spit in 'Waterproof'.

But did you see 'Alchemy'? You have quite a few people who want this skill. That's just people and rich people halfway through it, too.

"With tricks, talent and financial resources, it might be possible"

"Hmm? Wait a minute. Ya. You can create gold, right?

You seem to be making the same mistake as many people. 'Alchemy' is only too widespread that gold can be made, and few people know what it means to be.

"Gold, to be exact, too, can be made. It's a blend of magic and academia. Prepare something to mediate, and follow the exact steps to create gold and secret drugs."

"That's so awesome!

I'm sorry I'm excited, but it's not such a simple skill.

Looks like I'm gonna have to explain it there.

"Alchemy is commonly referred to as high skill. skills that can only be acquired by those who meet certain conditions. You know that, don't you, Maekil?"

"I know. Once you've finished swordsmanship, you'll rarely evolve into advanced swordsmanship."

"Right. In that case, swordsmanship and advanced swordsmanship are replaced, but some higher-level skills leave behind existing skills and new ones occur. It is."

"I'd say alchemy."

You can tell things quickly.

Alchemy has fairly strict prerequisites for it.

"In addition to academic and professional knowledge, you will need at least three skills, such as" medicine, "" pharmacy, "" computation, "and" precision behavior, "which are also at a high level. Many of the skills that can be remembered acquired, but without them, they wouldn't be activated where there was' alchemy '."

"Seriously."

"I'm serious. So you also need to have those skills bought out. 'Alchemy' skills are expensive in the first place, so you don't think you can buy them, do you?

"Chi, how much, by the way?

I'm taking my wallet out of my pocket and checking the contents, but it's definitely not enough.

If you're serious about buying it...... Whisper the amount you need in Maekil's ear.

In an instant, my eyebrow roots come to me. I just looked at my wallet and my face alternately and I'm not changing the price.

"If you have the financial resources to buy it, it's better to live gracefully with that money."

"Ha, the world isn't so sweet all the time."

It seemed just a little pitiful that he was dropping his shoulders and being discouraged.

"Ha, I wanted to try alchemy. I wish it had been an admiration since I was a kid. Just once, just once, let me use it."

Flirting. Looking at me, I'm mouthing a playful dialogue. You said something about dreams you've had since you were a kid, but you've heard rumors lately.

"If I could alchemize just once, just a little bit, I'd be content to invest in gathering future information. Ha, I wonder if some kind gentleman would let me use the alchemy."

If I let it go like this, I'm going to keep telling Netineti every time I see him. I have no choice......

"If you really want to use it, would you just try 'Alchemy' skills once? If you have a higher level of Alchemy, you can manage to activate your skills alone."

Maechir already owns' Calculation 'and' Precision Operation ', so he doesn't have to give much skill. Plus he has a lot of skill slots so it's possible to put in the rest of his skills.

Because he was a talented young man, I asked him to work in gathering information in anticipation of that talent. Here, it's not a bad idea to ask selfishness.... even if it doesn't turn out as expected.

"Are you sure? If you do it for me, I'd like to ask you... to take the money, right?

"I won't tell you."

"Seriously. I've been lying to you now - or if you say so, stick your hands in through your ass hole and sardine your back teeth?

"What is it, that heinous method of killing?"

"No, it's a classic rhetoric in our country."

The land of fearless merchants.

I know it's a mild joke, but imagine it's a pretty awful act.

Maekil, who has come to my room since nightfall, looks around the room restless when he puts his backpack on the floor.

They stopped by after shopping, and they have tomorrow's skewer-roasted ingredients in their big backpack.

"As I was invited, I tried to come wheeling, but no way... Wye's body is what I'm looking for. Do it!

I hold my body like a maiden and pretend to be frightened.

If a skinny, albeit muscular, young man poses like that, he won't get any emotions but disgusting.

"Welcome home there"

Point softly at the door.

Then I proceeded this way with my knee poked on the floor, and I clung to my leg.

"A little joke or abandonment. Hey."

"Yeah, I'm gloomy. The unique Nori of the Sikiu can't keep up from time to time."

Shake off Maekil and lower your hips to the chair.

It's fine as a merchant to always behave brightly, but sometimes I get very tired when I can stay at this rate all the time.

"Shit, I'll get started. Yes, I'll give you the skills you need, so give me your hand."

"Oh, your brother's hands are slippery."

Stop making disgusting voices and stroking people's hands.

I'm already tired of scratching, so I ignored it and activated my skills.

"Yes, now 'Alchemy' is doable"

"I've thought about it before, but it's not light."

I'm waving my arms and flexing, but it doesn't make any difference to my body. Because it's all knowledge-related skills.

"If you keep carrying it away... Wye will be a big rich man as an alchemist"

"I don't mind running, but if I catch you, I'll make you see that you're better off dead."

Speaking calmly with a full grin, Maekil is shivering with his wall behind his back.

He said he just activated a little 'intimidation'.

"Do I need to explain how to activate it?

"Momo no, no"

"Prepare the necessary materials. Put it on your desk and activate your skills."

"Oh, my God, it's easy."

"It takes a lot of hard work and effort to get there. Alchemists are said to blossom as early as the forties. Chance of being alone in a decade."

"No, I don't care. As long as I know how to do it, I don't need it anymore."

Really, you're in good shape. You have a bad habit of mouthing the right things with a master mouth, but you're good at intelligence.

Normally, you would never learn 'alchemy'. I can say that it is opposite poles.

Alchemy is the highest level of skill, mastering every discipline before reaching it.

I guess a lot of people focus on their 'buying and selling' that's easy to get, too.

"What are you trying to do?"

He looks at the norinous Maekil with his nose twirling, but he doesn't need it anymore, so he doesn't say anything.

Leaving him there, he doesn't seem to know what to do, and he's looking at us in a flicker.

It's funny, so let's leave it alone.

"Nah, nah, nah."

Maekil, who was making weird moves by saying the right thing, leaned down and walked up to me, and he sat down to flow as he collapsed.

"Excuse me, tell me how"

"You have no choice. What do you want to make? I'll let you use the alchemy just once, as I promised."

Let's get this over with and get this over with.

"I'm attracted to secret drugs, too, but do the gold! It's my dream or not to build up a building block with a golden extension stick! In the world, as long as you have money, most things are handsome!

I thought Maechir would say that.

Many humans who want 'alchemy' cheaply want gold.

Because gold is like the universal currency that prevails in any country. And a few of them simply like the golden glow.

"Okay, then I'll need the materials you need for the alchemy."

"Uh, what's the material?

"Didn't I tell you? Alchemy needs materials. If it is to produce gold, it must be prepared with the same ingredients as gold. It's not like we can create it from nothing."

"What's the material you need for gold?

"I don't know. I'm not an alchemist."

The world isn't that sweet. Maechir did make alchemy possible, but without the original material, it would not activate.

And without knowledge, I don't even know what I need.

"This is a scam! Such a rotten treasure!

"Well, that's right. An old man who sold that alchemy said that something called alchemy is just a move to reassemble what's there. The power to create objects that can be created in the hands of people by plunging the process. They say that's alchemy. Without a deep build on what you make, it will fail even if activated."

"Doctor, I don't know half what you're talking about."

Honest and good.

Should I explain it more clearly?

"Once the material is ready and activated, the product is complete. However, only those things you know in detail"

"What the heck, that... I've been telling you about collectors for a long time, but they're mean."

"Really? If you think it's enough for a skewer, it's not enough."

"I'm scared, though. Unless you're a craftsman, don't know anything about it. Do something. Give me the alchemy back. Shame on you. I want to do something..."

Maechir, who was running his gaze all over the room, stopped moving as he stared at a certain point.

Apparently, we've found a subject who wants to use alchemy.

"There you are, there you are! It's the first skewer in the world made of alchemy, motherfucker!

A throwing call is echoing all over the square.

After that, they smelled the skewered ingredients they were buying in.

That's all Maekil knew in detail and had all the ingredients.

"It's a rare skewer! It doesn't taste or look the same!

I bought three rare skewers, and I'm going back to the inn.

After a bite, it tasted the same as yesterday.
