Money-grubbing Necromancer (182)
Celestial City
The two-hour conversation ended.
Necromancers from each country were interviewed, with satisfied faces.
“Haha, I’ve gained a lot of know-how. If only Guild Leader Kim Min-woo had time, I would like to have another gathering like this.”
Liang Xiaojun answers with a big smile.
Even Mikhail, who had been cheerful when he entered, gave a short reply saying that it had been a good time.
‘With this, the first step has been taken… … .’
A seed sown among high-ranking necromancers around the world. It may be feeble now, but the results will be very sweet as time goes by.
‘I guess I should take the next step soon.’
I looked at the items I got a few months ago.
[Celestial City Transfer Ticket]
[Rating: Special]
[An item given to those who have passed the beginner’s test. You can travel to the Celestial City and take the test. It can be activated once every six months.]
[Effect 1. When used, moves to the Celestial City.]
[Effect 2. When moving once, you have one month of activity time.]
An item obtained from the test site where you traveled with Seo Ye-rim.
The reason it hasn’t been used until now is simple.
‘Because it wasn’t level 300.’
After the beginner exam, there is the trainee exam. The level that can challenge the trainee exam is 300.
So I left it alone.
‘This isn’t the only thing that’s been kept quiet.’
That was the ascension ceremony.
[* The 1,321st ritual is already in progress!]
[* You can apply when recruiting participants for the 1,322nd round!]
Perhaps there was a long gap between each ceremony.
“It’s June now… … .”
When I go to the Celestial City and come back, it will be July.
‘The timing is perfect.’
If it were July, I wouldn’t have been able to move to the Celestial City.
Because I had a reservation in August.
[Masquerade Invitation]
[Rating: Special]
[This is an invitation to attend the Demon Lords’ banquet. A special event may occur upon entering.]
[Banquet Date: August 1]
An invitation from Mr. Ahn Mo.
The banquet date is August 1st, so it will be activated then. Looking at the major schedule, it will be moving to the Celestial City, taking the cultivator test, and then being invited to the masquerade ball.
There will probably be additional schedules added from time to time.
‘A witch might come.’
Didn’t the Great Witch Ananke promise? She would send a witch to the place where the Abyss Lord was. But it seemed like it would take some time.
‘Whatever.’
I had to go to the Celestial City, but there was one last thing I had to take care of before that.
“I have to sell the runes.”
Wouldn’t it be reassuring to return the money copier after a month of absence? It was also a situation where I actually had to earn money.
Runes and tattoos.
This was because I had used up a significant portion of the money I had saved up so far by engraving two things.
“Then, shall we go do some business?”
* * *
The office of the Ilsung Group Chairman.
There was a knock at the door.
“Father, I’m leaving.”
Kim Min-woo, who came inside immediately, looked at Chairman Kim.
“Did the meeting go well? It must have been a gathering of people who are all living their own lives.”
“Fortunately, everyone was fine. I plan to keep in touch with them often in the future.”
“Okay. So what happened?”
“Is the equipment selling well? I heard it has expanded overseas as well.”
“Yes. It’s not that we can’t sell because we don’t have it. It’s all thanks to the equipment you supplied. Thanks to that, things are going well in Southeast Asia.”
Chairman Kim said with a proud smile. We have turned the tables with the help of Plus equipment.
To begin with, plus items were items in high demand.
There was no way other companies could survive because they kept releasing it at half the price of the auction house, and even as a bait product. Ilsung’s share of the Korean equipment market was close to 80%.
At this point, it was practically a monopoly.
The subsequent actions were almost wild.
Because they hired all the craftsmen from other companies who had lost their jobs and then expanded overseas without hesitation.
Objectively speaking, the skills of Korean craftsmen were not top-tier.
However, there was no big problem at the Southeast Asian level. Here, too, they carried out strong marketing with Plus items at the forefront, and the results were also good.
“That’s great. You don’t have to worry about the quantity. My mana supply has also increased a lot.”
“Looking at the amount of water supplied, I guess so.”
“So, would you like to take a look at this?”

“Huh? What the heck, a rock… … .”
A small rock-like object was placed on the table. The chairman looked at it closely and opened his eyes wide.
“Rune?”
“I got it from the hidden gate.”
As I explained about the runes, Chairman Kim’s eyes began to shine brighter and brighter. He is the chairman of the number one company in Korea, so he couldn’t help but smell money.
Chairman Kim, who had been asking about this and that, said.
“What is the supply?”
“If you put your mind to it, you can make it overflowing. Just sell it all at the store. I’ll take the margin after deducting the cost of materials.”
“Thank you always.”
“I earn money too. What? Then I’ll go to work.”
* * *
Kyaang!
Kyaang!
Sparks flew.
It was always a spectacle to see thousands of skeletons lined up and crafting items, and to think that this was happening underground!
Choi Yu-na stared blankly at the sight.
‘That’s why the plus items were never discontinued.’
It was she who found out Kim Min-woo’s secret after moving into the basement.
There was a reason why such enormous colony facilities and pension facilities were built.
-What are you doing, Yuna?
“Huh? No. No. Sorry.”
Choi Yu-na shook her head at Iris’ question and placed the ingredients into a large cauldron. Iris stirred the inside with her mana staff.
‘I said she was a witch… … .’
Witch Iris.
He was the assistant that Kim Min-woo gave her after she visited Hidden Gate.
Every time we did mass production, my eyes would pop out, but after Iris came, the burden was greatly reduced.
He was that talented.
Although he was not an alchemist, he was very good at alchemy.
At that time, Kim Min-woo, who was commanding the skeletons, approached and asked.
“Are you able to work? I heard you’ve been busy lately.”
“Don’t be ridiculous. There are so many reservations. If it weren’t for Iris, I would have collapsed by now. From overwork.”
“What can I do? If it’s a top-grade elixir, it’s something everyone would want.”
“I didn’t know there were this many rich people in Korea.”
“So you don’t like it?”
“No. Actually, I like it. I can’t even remember when leveling up was this hard these days.”
Choi Yu-na said with a bashful smile.
The cost of the highest grade elixir is 8 billion.
expensive.
It was definitely expensive, but demand was overwhelming.
At least, it was a level that even the top-tier awakeners in Korea could not help but covet. After securing the right to sell elixirs in Korea through negotiations with the United States, numerous inquiries came in.
Whether you plan to sell the elixir, when it will be available, etc.
The government also rolled up its sleeves.
They started subsidizing top-tier elixirs.
Instead, there was a request to lower the official selling price in Korea to 10 billion won, and I gladly accepted that.
It was currently being sold for 8.5 billion won each. 5 billion won was the minimum margin set due to the risk of production failure.
On the other hand, the amount purchased by the awakened person is about 6 billion per pill.
2.5 billion was covered by government subsidies, and thanks to this, orders were pouring in. From Choi Yu-na’s perspective, it was a good opportunity to make a living.
Because the production group would gain experience points every time they made an item.
Let alone something as high-grade as an elixir.
He’s probably leveling up at this very moment.
Kim Min-woo wasn’t bad either.
Although there was little direct profit from selling elixirs, there was plenty of indirect profit from selling them cheaply.
Close cooperation with the government, reputation work, etc.
“It’s nice to see you working hard. Just keep doing this. Then, many good things will happen to you in the future.”
“really?”
“Yes. As I said before, will this be the end of recipe support? I plan to visit the gate again this time, and I think it will have good results.”
“Could it be a hidden gate?”
“Well, it’s similar.”
I guess you could say that the Celestial City is similar to the Hidden Gate.
Isn’t this a place where even if a normal awakened person dies and wakes up, they can’t find him?
Since I was going anyway, I thought I’d look up some recipes.
It wasn’t difficult to teach Choi Yu-na how to make it, as long as she knew how to make it.
“Hehehe… … Fighting!”
He saw Choi Yu-na’s eyes sparkling as if she was looking at a rich man. This time, Kim Min-woo looked at Iris.
Startle!
Iris was seen standing up straight like a new soldier with military discipline.
“Is the work any good?”
-Yes, it’s fun.
“Then that’s good.”
I came back into the room.
Over the past week, I’ve produced and delivered a ton of weapons, runes, and potions. I’m sure there won’t be any leftover items that I can’t sell while I’m out.
‘I should go soon.’
I took out my Celestial City Transfer Ticket. It was the moment I decided to use it.
[Use the Celestial City Transfer Ticket!]
[Move to Celestial City, District 9!]
[Your residence will be assigned!]
Flash!
A pure white halo enveloped my body.
The scenery before my eyes changed, with a feeling of something being sucked in, as if my soul was ascending.
‘huh?’
Before he knew it, Minwoo was in a room smaller than a studio apartment.
A shabby wall made of wood.
The floor was covered with piles of straw, which looked as if someone had pressed them down.
‘Will it be 4 pyeong?’
The only thing inside is a bundle of straw.
In a word, it is a space that looks very empty.
‘Is this my residence?’
but.
On Earth, they were rich, but here in the celestial city, they were treated as poor, so there was nothing to say.
I opened the wooden door.
Squeak.
The moment the door opened with the sound of old hinges.
“Huh? Human?”
I saw a one-eyed man looking at me with his head tilted.
A single eye was blinking right in the center of the upper part of the nose.
It literally had one eye.
I was using a language I had never heard before, but the meaning was so clear that it felt like it was ingrained in my head.
‘By the way, the equipment… … .’
He was wearing a black armor that looked like it was made of spider webs. He had a sword on his right waist and a small shield on his left wrist. In short, he was just a monster with equipment.
Kim Min-woo, who was looking at the one-eyed man, nodded and said.
“Yes, I am human. What are you? Human? Monster?”
“Haha, you don’t have to look at me like that. Even though it’s a slum, it’s still the city. If you fight, you’ll get arrested. By the way, I’m human.”
“You have one eye?”
“If you have one leg, aren’t you a human?”
“… … Well, that’s fine. It’s my first time here, so there’s a lot I don’t know.”
“If you’re curious, ask a guide for this city.”
“Where is it?”
“Who do you know as a nanny? You can find out that much yourself.”
Despite the grumbling, he seemed to be pointing forward quite kindly.
“Yes, thank you.”
Kim Min-woo started to move in that direction. It seemed like he needed to look for a guide first.
