The Girl I Saved Came Back As An S-rank Hunter

29 – Going to get a ring appraisal

After successfully clearing the A-level dungeon, the daily routine of going back and forth between the training ground and the house began again.

It was in order not to forget the feeling of being able to see the attack beforehand when fighting a vampire, but the next day, like a lie, that feeling disappeared without a trace.

It was very sad and disappointing, but I am training with my mind set thinking that I will find the answer someday.

“Wonwoo, let’s have dinner like tonight! I’ve been learning Wonwoo-nim’s favorite pork cutlet!”

“Ah, today is difficult. I decided to go to the artisan guild and share the appraisal of the ring I got the other day with an acquaintance.”

A suggestion from Sujeongi, whom I met on the way home from training a little early. But today, unfortunately, I have no choice but to refuse.

Sujeongi opened his eyes wide and asked in surprise.

“Wonwoo has acquaintances?”

“… Isn’t that too much? I’ve been on this floor for a long time, and there are a few Hunters I know, of course.”

Actually, it’s not like Sujeong has a lot of connections or anything like that. However, when Sujeong points it out, it feels more painful.

“Foot, it’s a joke, a joke.”

The words of Sujeongie who smiles while covering her mouth. I want you to know that you can feel shame when someone throws a fact assault.

“Rather than that, surely that acquaintance is not a woman?”

At the same time, Sujeongi throws a sharp question. As her eyes narrowed, the red eyes sent something full of doubt.

“It’s a woman, but….”

If you say that she is a woman here, it is obvious that she will get angry because Sujeong is very jealous.

But there is no reason to lie from my proud position, so I decided to tell the truth for now.

I just realized how I feel about Sujeong, but I don’t want to cause a big problem by being caught lying.

Sujeong suddenly became quiet upon hearing the answer.

And after a while, the low voice gave off a chill.

“To think confidently going to see another woman when I’m by her side….”

She quickly decided to continue the explanation.

“No, don’t get me wrong. Listen. It’s someone I’ve known for a very long time. She received a lot of help in the past, and she only decided to go with her because she had a guild acquaintance who was an artisan who knew both.”

Sujeongi, who was listening to her with a frown on her face, had a worried face as she crossed her arms.

“Besides, that person has a boyfriend. So she doesn’t have to worry at all.”

“Hmm, is that so?”

Still suspicious. The story continued as if to calm Sujeong as much as possible.

Fortunately, the persuasion seems to have worked, and she puts her lips out slightly while making an expression of acceptance.

“Ah, but I thought it would be over quickly after a long time, so I expected it….”

Looking at Sujeong, who quickly became sullen, I want to soothe her.

“Sorry. You don’t usually have other schedules anyway, as Sujeong said, her personal connections aren’t that wide…. So let’s eat together next time.”

As I comforted him by mentioning the bitter reality, he suddenly burrowed into my arms as if his mood had finally eased.

“Then I need energy to endure while Wonwoo is gone…. Please stay still for a while to recharge.”

Sujeong rubbed her face happily as she wrapped her hands around my waist. Because it is in the middle of the guild aisle, you can see the guild members passing by.

“Hey Sujeong-ah, there are a lot of guild members here….”

“Write. Aren’t you still? If you don’t let me, I will never let you go.”

I had no choice but to stand still at Sujeongi’s determined attitude.

In people’s eyes, there were envy, surprise, and happy smiles.

“Huh, that’s it. Charging complete! Go and do nothing else, come quickly.”

After a while, Soo-jung smiles with satisfaction as if something has been resolved. In the meantime, a warning was issued that was not a warning.

“What else…. Anyway, I might be late for my appointment, so I’ll go.”

“Yes, be careful of people, be careful of gates, especially women. Please do it.”

“Yes. Soojung finishes the job well.”

After saying goodbye to Sujeongi, she hurried her steps in order not to be late.

*

Fortunately, she arrived on time.

We were supposed to meet in front of the artisan guild, but since we were a bit far from our guild, it seemed to work for us to finish training quickly and come out.

“Oh, you came out early, Wonwoo.”

At that time, a cat-like woman with black hair and short bobbed hair came up to me from behind and greeted me.

“It’s been a while. Jisoo sister.”

The figure of Jisoo noona, wearing a cropped tee that slightly exposed her belly and short blue shorts that showed off her well-trained leg line, immediately caught my eye.

Just like Jisoo noona’s cool personality, I thought she was still the same when I saw her cool outfit.

“Inomushiki! You haven’t contacted me in a while, huh? Didn’t she almost feel sad thinking that she had completely forgotten since she was doing so well?”

Jisoo noona slapped her on the back while laughing and being happy. She still has her hands hot.

“Oh, my sister is sick.”

“So, who sadly told you not to contact your sister?”

“Your sister is busy with guild work, too.”

“I thought you were rather busy? But, thanks to you, I have one less busy job.”

It’s probably a story about clearing a class A dungeon recently.

Jisoo noona belongs to the Destiny Guild that entered the dungeon we attacked first.

At the time, the affiliated S-class hunter was attacking another dungeon, so he tried to attack it through personnel, but it failed and the situation became difficult.

But fortunately, I remember hearing from Sujeong-i that we succeeded in attacking and relieved the burden.

“That’s a relief.”

“Well, I’m not as busy as you. Seeing it mentioned here and there, isn’t it a joke?”

Most of the stories are about Sujeongi, Han Yura, and my relationship, so they probably aren’t particularly good.

“hahahaha… “

I laughed awkwardly and couldn’t find the words to reply.

“Trying to pass it off with a laugh again. So what is there to discuss?”

“Ah, is it okay if I talk about it slowly after being appraised?”

When I asked cautiously, Ji-soo nodded and pointed with her hand to the entrance of the artisan guild and said.

“Then shall we go in?”

In doing so, I opened the glass door and entered the Craftsman Guild.

What unfolded in front of my eyes was a lively market-like atmosphere.

There were conspicuous bargaining here and there, and in some places, equipment repairs could be seen.

“This is the Craftsman Guild.”

“Oh, you said you were visiting for the first time, right?”

Jisoo noona looks back at me as if she had just remembered.

“Yes, there was virtually nothing to come. I couldn’t even use expensive items.”

“What…. I guess so.”

Sister Jisoo who is easily convinced. Then she turned her head again and led the way.

And after a while, there was a signpost that said [Paradise Appraisal Center].

“Mister! I’m here.”

Jisoo noona speaks in a friendly way to a gray-haired old man who is reading a paper newspaper while wearing glasses.

“Is it you again? I have nothing to shake off now, so go back.”

As if they had seen each other for a long time, the old man also comfortably spoke to Ji-soo noona.

“Ah, I’m sorry I brought a guest.”

Jisoo noona pointed at me with her chin and said.

“Oh, yes? How many new boyfriends have you had this time?”

An old man who calmly tells unconventional stories. However, Jisoo noona smiled bashfully and replied as if nothing was wrong.

“If anyone hears it, they’ll think I’m a promiscuous girl who goes out with men every day.”

“Wasn’t it?”

“Well, Wonwoo is fine.”

Meanwhile, Jisoo noona gently touches her arm. She stayed still, afraid to get caught in the strange flow of conversation.

“Now stop joking around and tell me what happened.”

Then, Jisoo noona withdrew her laughter and told her purpose.

“To get some item appraisal. There are a lot of people fooling around with items these days, so I brought in someone I can trust.”

“If you do that, you won’t lose anything, so keep your compliments.”

“You are ashamed, mister.”

Then the old man pushed up his slightly crooked glasses and looked at my face carefully.

“You seem to have seen this face somewhere….”

“I think it’s because I’m a bit common.”

Fortunately, it didn’t seem to recognize me, so I quickly covered it up.

“Um…. Maybe not. As I got older, I must have mistaken this person for that person. I’m sorry.”

“No, that’s fine.”

“Then, would you like to give me the item you want to appraise?”

He handed me a small plastic basket in front of me.

As soon as he took out the ring he had been keeping in the basket and put it in, the old man wiped it off with a dry cloth placed next to him and examined it carefully with a small microscope.

“First of all, the exterior looks pretty good. I don’t know what the gem is, but it doesn’t seem like a normal ruby or anything like that. It looks like there’s something inside.”

“Really? Is it something worth looking into?”

“Oh, I guess I’ll know once I see it.”

An old man nodding his head at Ji-soo’s sister’s question.

I was worried because good items don’t always drop in A-rank dungeons, but fortunately it seems worthwhile.

The old man placed the ring in his hand on a silver bowl resembling a scale and sat down on a chair in front of it.

Then, he spread his hands and unfolded his magical power in his hands.

When about three minutes passed, Jisoo noona grumbled.

“Why did it take so long today, mister?”

“Don’t make me talk.”

“Sheesh.”

Jisoo-nuna, who was rather confused, looked at her expecting something, contrary to what she said.

“Wonwoo, it looks like a great item? Usually, it is one minute at most.”

“Really? I hope you come up with something useful.”

It’s an item that came from catching a vampire who was said to be hard to find, risking his life, but it would be very disappointing to say it’s an unnecessary japtem.

“Heh heh…. I thought I would appraise this with my own hands. It’s great, it’s great.”

At that time, the old man’s words came pouring out. The two of us turned our attention to those words and focused on the old man.

The old man approached as if his emotions were over and said quietly.

“Are you thinking of selling this ring?”

An old man who asks for a sale.

When she was confused and at a loss for what to do with the sudden situation, Ji-su noona, who was next to her, stepped forward and asked.

“What? Will it be a legendary grade item?”

“Right, as you said, it’s legendary grade. The item name is [Ring of Regeneration]. However, even if you say that the ability you have is a mythical level, it is at a level that is not inferior at all.”

She was taken aback by that statement. She couldn’t help but be surprised that she was carrying it comfortably without expectations and that it was a legendary grade.

“Ability? What is your ability?”

Jisoo noona asked the old man more excitedly. I, who was standing next to her, looked at her expectantly and waited for her answer.

After a brief pause, the old man slowly opened his mouth.

“Ability is resurrection. Even upon death, it revives the wearer only once. You have one more life.”

“Really? Nonsense….”

Jisoo noona’s absurd words leaked out. As soon as I heard it, I couldn’t hide my surprise.

A hunter’s life is to always walk a tightrope risking his life.

However, in the danger of dying because of a mistake, they are given another chance.

Life cannot be bought with anything. Therefore, the value of the ring is bound to be enormous.

“That’s what I said. The item grade is legendary, but the value is actually mythical.”

“Wow, Wonwoo. You hit the jackpot.”

Jisoo noona holding my shoulder and saying it’s hard.

“Oh, yes.”

There was no sense of reality in Jisoo noona’s words, so I only felt bewildered.

“So, does the man over there have any plans to sell it? As for the price, tell the guild as you ask, and we’ll adjust it somehow.”

The solemnity of earlier is an old man who speaks with earnestness. Ji-soo noona also looked at me and she asked.

“What do you want to do?”

“Well, I don’t know right now. I will think about it.”

I don’t know exactly, but if you convert the value, it seems that you can receive legendary-grade items through item exchange as well as a huge amount of money.

However, since my heart was racing and my thoughts were not organized properly, I decided to put it on hold for now.

“Yeah, that’s right. Instead, if you sell it, I hope you do it through me.”

“Yes, I understand.”

An old man who seems regretful or lingering. At first, he replied that he would know.

I paid the appraisal fee while receiving the carefully handed over ring.

“Please think carefully.”

“If you think about it and come up with an idea, I will definitely come to you.”

“I am going too. Goodbye, uncle.”

“You should stop coming.”

After hearing the old man’s last words of appeal, I came out of the guild with Ji-soo noona.

Jisoo noona, who was next to her, smiled and looked at me, and she said.

“I was thinking of getting this lightly today. Can’t you?”

“hahahaha…. Is there anything you would like to eat?”

“Is there a restaurant that specializes in pasta around here? Should I eat a lot there? You have to buy this much to be in the right class.”

Those words reminded me of Ji-su noona’s appetite for food, and I had no idea how much she would eat, but she couldn’t resist.

In fact, I was lucky enough to win the lottery ticket 10 times in a row. What’s the point of not buying?

“I get it, I get it. Then go.”

“Oh yeah! Let’s go.”

Jisoo noona grabbed my arm and actively led her toward the restaurant.
