chapter 10
10 – Secret Auction House (1)
Baran stared at the message with a gaze that seemed to prompt him to quickly hand over the reward.
The next moment.
[You have cleared the quest!]
[You will receive 3,000 points as a reward!]
Soon after, the reward message he wanted appeared.
I don’t think there’s anything wrong with only giving points.
‘But if you think about it, it’s not bad.’
Isn’t it best to receive gifts in the form of money?
If you think you can buy things in the cash shop with points, it’s no different than giving it reasonably.
The time when he is satisfied inside.
“Wow, that’s a successful effective hit against the professor.”
“What is he really?”
“Then is that blind man the strongest in our class?”
“Say something that makes sense. Originally, the last turn is advantageous. So it must be like that.”
“Yes. And if Luden-sama or the others’ attacks worked, the gauge would have decreased by more than 10 rather than 1.”
Students who were watching are talking while glancing at this side.
No, do they think I have bad ears?
At that time when he thought the world was ridiculous.
[The player’s influence has increased!]
[Experience is given as a reward!]
[Congratulations! I leveled up with this experience!]
An unexpected reward message came out.
Seeing that, Baran smiled and shook his head.
Yes. You might think that people have bad ears. Ah, not like that.
With that thought in mind, eventually the first class at Edin Academy came to an end. As an aside, rumors spread that Baran gave Dale an effective blow.
***
About four days have passed since then.
In the meantime, unlike the first day, fortunately there were no big variables.
Well, there were times when the main character and some of the lead actors would talk to me, but now, isn’t it surprising that much?
Rather than that, we need to slowly check.
‘Whoa. Then let’s check it out.’
Thinking of that, I opened the status window without hesitation.
Status window.

The status window is completely different from before.
After the first day, I naturally cleared the sub quest and leveled up once more.
As a result, my level now reached right before the 1st job change.
‘All of my abilities are double digits now.’
I’m satisfied with growing faster than I thought, but I can’t let my guard down.
It is clear that my growth is faster than anyone else.
However, that doesn’t mean I’m strong, isn’t it?
‘And the higher the level, the slower the growth.’
Right now, it’s low level, so it’s so fast.
Maybe growth will be blocked for an instant.
‘Well, thinking about this now doesn’t mean anything will happen.’
Rather than that, now we have to prepare slowly.
If you only add 1 up, you will be in the 1st job change.
Therefore, it is necessary to obtain the materials necessary for the 1st job change.
‘Come to think of it, a secret auction house was held every Friday.’
The Secret Auction House.
To put it simply, it is a system that conducts an auction while covering the face by impairing recognition.
Most of the people who use this auction house are nobles.
Of course, that doesn’t mean that only nobles can use it.
If you just go to the El Dorado store that opens the auction house and tell them the password, you can participate.
You might think that something might be too lax, but that is also not the case.
Before giving this password, you will write a magic contract.
A contract that the moment you reveal it to someone, you will face death.
That’s why it’s unlikely that this code will spread.
Because you’ll die of cardiac arrest before you can even speak.
‘It’s a story that has nothing to do with me.’
Anyway, I went the other way for a while, but today a secret auction is held at the El Dorado store.
And I know that the former material item is coming in at this time.
‘Originally, I would never be able to buy it with the money I have now.’
The fact that I am the only one who knows the true value of the item.
Because of that, I have to get it by eating myself.
‘Growth is growth, but it is also necessary to change jobs raw.’
Then let’s start slowly.
***
After organizing my thoughts, I left the dormitory without hesitation.
But at that moment.
“Is this the guy who succeeded in hitting the professor?”
“He is blind, but he uses a bow.”
“It’s amazing.”
Students passing by glanced at us.
Unlike usual, the way you look at me is different.
Wasn’t he originally looking at me with a slightly regretful expression?
However, now some people are looking at me with eyes full of jealousy.
Of course, some women look at them with their faces blushing.
‘It’s really embarrassing to be extra with this face.’
What on earth did the designers think when they made the extras look so handsome?
There is no sense of absurdity, but, well, thinking of possessing a character like this, it is something to be thankful for.
No matter what kind of world it is, isn’t the original appearance all important?
‘Anyway, you won’t run into Lillia, will you?’
She is a public lecture every Friday due to the secret auction house.
She’s going to use a perception-disrupting item before entering the Chamber of Commerce, just in case.
‘Something seems suspicious about him.’
Unlike the other lead actors, he has good eyesight.
That’s why, when we run into each other, we feel like we’re going to feel uncomfortable about something.
‘I won’t run into you.’
Thinking that way, I looked around her.
‘Where is the location?’
It was enough to turn on the map view only in the game, but it was not easy to find a business when it became a reality.
Then after a while.
‘It’s very confusing.’
Soon we arrived at our destination.
I wore a perception-defying necklace purchased with points for the secret auction house.
‘The upper house also gives a mask to impede recognition, but just in case you don’t know.’
After thoroughly preparing, I moved toward Sanghoe.
Then, I saw people who were presumed to be employees moving hurriedly.
‘Seems quite busy with the secret auction house.’
Or maybe it’s just because he’s usually busy.
I approached the employee in charge of the job.
The next moment, she looks at me with a businesslike smile.
“What are you here for? Customer?”
“The door is always open.”
“I will guide you.”
The moment she said the code, her face hardened like stone.
Then, he got up from his seat and started leading the way.
I followed her.
Then after a while.
“You can go downstairs. Sir.”
I arrived in a normal-looking room.
I nodded as I looked at the stairs going down to the basement.
At the same time.
“Do you need a mask to hinder perception?”
The staff carefully asks questions.
It must be because I am already in a state of impaired recognition.
After I nodded in affirmation, an employee handed me a mask.
I put the mask on my face without hesitation.
“If you go downstairs, there will be an employee who will assign you a room for your use. You can receive his guidance. Have a nice day.”
Hearing that, I went down the stairs.
If it was a game, you should arrive at your destination right away.
However, in reality, I have to go down the stairs.
As I descended the stairs, I glanced around.
‘Certainly, the El Dorado Company seems to have a lot of money.’
No matter how big it is for guests, there are quite a lot of luxurious items around.
I don’t know if someone is stealing it.
‘The moment I do that, I get f*cked on the contrary.’
Sanghoe is not a force to belittle.
Isn’t it possible to submerge quite a few families if they set their minds to whether they will bend over to the nobles?
‘If you don’t intend to turn the Eldorado Company into an enemy, you won’t intend to steal it.’
And if you see that there are even crystal balls around, it’s obvious that the moment you steal it, you’ll be caught.
Because of that, unless you’re crazy, you won’t steal anything here.
“I was waiting. Customer.”
At that time, a businesslike voice rang in my ear.
Walking while lost in thought, I arrived at my destination before I knew it.
“Take the key and go into Room 103.”
“Yes, I understand.”
Receiving the key, I continued walking.
The situation is going very smoothly.
As expected, variables don’t happen because I don’t go to the academy.
The time when I rejoiced in the world inside.
“Wait a minute.”
Suddenly, someone speaks.
It’s a very familiar voice.
‘Ah, maybe not. Will we meet at this timing?’
When she turned her head just in case, Lillia, wearing her mask, was reflected in her field of vision.
‘No, why are you suddenly talking to me?!’
For a moment as I waited for her to crave inwardly, she glanced at me and tilted her head.
“Have we met recently, somewhere?”
It seems that the world does not flow so easily.
