And so, instead of giving up, I decided to spend some time mulling over how I could make a living as a Necromancer.

Common methods for users to make money included selling items from dungeons, streaming for profit on personal broadcasts, or receiving advertising offers from companies.

Super famous Users, commonly referred as Rankers, were often commissioned by the government to fulfill quests, and received official sponsorships for companies. Of course, theres no way I could be a ranker, so that avenue was closed off. Similarly, I didnt have enough equipment to broadcast anything.

Since I go into the dungeons every day, I decided to organize the remaining items in my inventory to figure out whats possible to sell.

Inventory.

.

After organizing my inventory, the number of tems barely filled my hand. If I sell all of these, could I even get 300,000 won? 1 Items like the Orcs Teeth and the Slimes toy need to be sold in stacks of a thousand to be worth the effort.

For now, I only require low-grade potions for combat, but now, each bottle is worth 50,000 wonand these materials were painstakingly gathered for two monthsAt this rate Ill be driven into bankruptcy.

[Clack Clack]

As soon as I gave a deep sigh, Lackey took the [Orcs Crude Fan] and began to gently fan me.

Thanks I said.

After lying on the bed some more, I decided that after spending all this effort organizing, I should try and sell some of these items. With that in mind, I turned on the [Market Raid] app.

.

Nice to meet you, User Choi Lee-kyun 1327! Would you like to receive todays hot deal coupon?

Lets be cool~ all summer long! 50% sale for various cooling items!

The new Master Blacksmith Lee Dojin, that user Choi Lee-Kyung 1327 has registered as an account of interest, has updated.

Choi Lee-Kyung 1327-nim!2 Do you have any items for sale? [Three-legged Crows Eyes] are currently on the rise in the market. For [Three-legged Crows Eyes], if you register now, no sales commission will apply!

.

I cleaned up all of the incessant pop-up messages and organized all the items I wanted to register. One by one, I searched their listings on the marketplace. A deep sigh came out when I realized that all of them were selling for a much lower price than what I had seen before. Still, there was nothing else to do, so I began registering the items.

Market Raid was an auction platform that could only be utilized by Users. The system allowed members to see both the [immediate purchase price and the auction starting price] for any item on sale. When said product is sold, a purchasing supervisor (the called them marketmen) will come to your house to pick up the product and hand you the payment.

I auctioned my scant items for about 10 won cheaper than the other listings. As they were being sold, I scrolled through the countless items listed on the app, mouth drooling.

Immediate Purchase Price: 7 billion.

Current Bid: 2.49 billion. (Current auction price is automatically renewed every five minutes). [Renew]

Time left in the auction: 22:07:13

Wow.These really are otherworldly prices. I cant believe that a sword costs the same as a luxury apartment.

The other items listed below were also extraordinary. [Cursed Ring sealed by Demoness Monvert], [6 Circle Wind Parade Magic Book], [Dianas Demonic Staff] and so on Most of them cost well over 1.5 billion. After scrolling, I went to Lee Dojins, an artisan famous for making the luxury weapons I desired the most, personal market

Of course any of her creations were sold out as soon as she uploaded them. When I arrived, they were already gone. However, I could still browse the information and images of the weapons she sold.

[Stradivarius of Bewilderment]

[Solo Recital]: Disables enemy shields and mental protections, and limits enemy movement for two minutes.

[Encore]: Restrains enemies for 1 minute after a performance has ended.

.

WaaIts outstanding. Any bard with this weapon can force their enemies to stop and listen, captivated, by their songs?

In addition, any weapons made by Lee Dojin had a beautiful design. At first glance, the violin seemed plain. But, when you zoom in, subtle shiny patterns are hidden in the woods grain, while magic letters are engraved into the surface.

It was both extravagant and gorgeous.

Magical Craftsmanship, which is to instill a skill within a weapon, is often a fickle process. I dont know much about it, but the blacksmiths of the community say that the letters used for magic crafting are difficult to make small. Its also almost impossible to engrave letters as the crafter shapes them.

Shes a genius among geniuses

<Immediate Purchase Price: 30 billion>

However, I felt pain when I looked at the price.

Lee Do-jin, who sells one weapon for 30 billion, is crazy, but the rich people who waited to snatch up any of her limited creations were crazy too. Thinking about it all, I felt destitute. With a bitter heart, I checked the sales I posted (about 250,000 won in total), and closed the app.

I turned to stare at Lackey. Empty eye sockets stared back as they continued fanning me gently.

Lackey grasped none of this as its a low-grade skeletonbut since its 120 centimeters tall, I feel as if Im rearing a small child. I had forgotten it, but it kept on loyally fanning me.

My heart was touched, Its okay now, and I ordered it to stop.

[Clack Clack]

Thank youI really only have you.

[Clack Clack!]

Lackey had a habit of scratching its cheek (its cranial bone to be exact) with its fingers after I thanked it.

Perhaps its embarrassing, or perhaps it thinks its effort is worthwhile when I thank it.Even though it was only a pile of bones, I still felt that it was quite cutea bit like a smart puppy who could understand my words.

So, I gave Lackey a ride on my shoulders and stepped out of my accommodations. I was going to the hubs downtown center, and it likes to go on walks with me.

Did you see the busking video yesterday? That was hilarious

Woojoo-nim, Are you going to the Black Swamp today?

Hes selected a new wyvern recently

I headed to the plaza where many Users gathered and mingled.
