Volume 2 - CH 92

Chapter 3-7. Money Values

A few hours after leaving Garrot Kingdom

We are sitting in front of the carriage and looking out.

At the beginning of the journey, the roads were well maintained and it was easy to drive, and there were many people passing by.

There were a lot of people who seemed to be insanely strong in terms of equipment, but I think everyone had a lot of monsters and herbs on the wagon.

That must have been an adventurer.

I feel that some were young and some were old.

A profession that is not tied to age is a good thing.

However, if you are an adventurer, you will not be able to do normal work.

After a while, I could only see a village, and I could feel we were entering the trees and forest area .

The big fields are gradually disappearing and it kinda makes me lonely.

Eventually even the hut disappeared.

I didn’t think I would be so lonely just a little away from the throng of city

However, because of how close the forest is, I wonder if it may be easier for adventurers to do their jobs.

I also want to do something as an adventurer and learn about this world.

I don’t think I can be an aristocrat.

I don’t really want to do it.

By the time to the present time, Uchikage and Satella had become friends with each other.

Uchikage keeps using honorifics to me, but recently he’s starting to make jokes.

This change came after I asked him to take it easy last night.

Apparently he was concerned.

For me, I’d be grateful if he could come in contact with me lightly like this.

I want the other Onis to treat me like Uchikage, at least not too stiff around me.

“How lonely”

“You’re right. The carriage rattles because the road isn’t maintained, are both of you okay from motion sickness?”

“I’m OK!”

“Me too”

Gatan! And the carriage shook again.

I think it stomped on the stone. I’m glad I closed my mouth.

I opened the leather bag that I kept for a while

There were also three small bags in it, which contained bronze coins, silver coins, and gold coins.

This thing is quite heavy …….

Small letters are written on bronze coins and gold coins, and what is written in the center looks like a magic circle at first glance.

It may have been difficultly processed in this way so that it cannot be easily duplicated.

It’s a good thing that I have this world’s currencies, but I have no idea what I can buy with this.

I don’t have a sense of money.

It would be unpleasant to have no sense of money to live in this world from now on.

Uchikage seems to know it, so I should ask him.

“Uchikage”

“What is it?”

“How much is this money worth? I don’t know the market price at all.”

“Then, let’s start from the bottom. First, there are seven coins. From the lowest value, there are 【 Copper Coin 】 【 Bronze Coin 】【 Silver Coin 】【 Big Silver Coin 】【 Gold Coin 】【 Big Gold Coin 】and 【 White Gold Coin 】. 10 【 CopperCoin 】equal to 1 【 Bronze Coin 】. This will continue to 【 Big Gold Coin 】, except for 【 White Gold Coin 】, one piece of it equals to 100 【 Big Gold Coin 】. “

There’s another coin higher than the gold coin?

But that  thing is stupidly valuable.

What on earth do you use it for …

Well at least I understand the value of each coin.

Now let’s ask what I can buy with a bronze coin

“Then what can you buy with bronze coins?”

“You can buy a mountain of food for a bronze coin. You can buy food and daily necessities from bronze coins to silver coins. Stay at an inn, buying tools … For example, buy things that are difficult to process, something that is made from iron. If you buy things like that, silver coins to big silver coins are appropriate for it, and buying armor and potions requires more than silver coins. Trade is something that must be more than gold coins, but we don’t need it. That’s it. “

“Huh. It’s surprisingly easy to understand.”

“Hahahaha. It’s strange that you can understand our sense of money immediately, I’m quite impressed to be honest…”

“You see, I went to various places when I’m still a snake. I learned many things at that time.”

“……really?”

“Heh, you doubt me?”

“I’ll believe you then.”

It’s kinda refreshing how he can talk back to me like that.

Until yesterday, he wouldn’t doubt whatever I said.

This is it, this kind of friendly relationship is what makes me comfortable.

Seriously, Uchikage is really good at explaining things.

It was very easy to understand, and it seems that I can put it into practice right away.

But now that I understand the currency values, I realized how much money we received from Asure

This lot of money was just pushed into us so lightly..

“Ouren. Why is Ouren a snake?”

“Wow? Aah, I wonder why? I don’t even know myself, ahahaha.”

I don’t know how to answer that.

I’m going to be a dragon from now on.

I believe I will become a small dragon after the snake phase.

I wonder what is the next evolution after Wave Snake…

“By the way, I’ve seen you change your appearance from time to time. What was that?”

“That’s called evolution. It’s only available for ‘us’. If we evolve, we’ll get skills.”

“How convenient … huh ‘we’? Are there other similar beings like Ouren-sama?”

“Yea. There’s another one that I know. I call him Reizen. We were born quite apart from each other and we were nameless at first, so we named each other. And also, I’m the one who named him Reizen.”

I wonder what he is doing nowadays …

The last time we met was as a fish.

At the beginning, I was near that river, but due to various reasons, I came a long way.

It will be a long time before we can meet again.

I don’t know if he is able to transform into a human too.

Maybe he can get used to it like me.

He’ll be fine … isn’t he?

Hold up? Now that I think about it again, he has to be able to read this world’s alphabet and letters, right?

Uhm? Is he going to be fine?

I mean … He is kinda stu- clumsy …

I wish you luck, Reizen.

When I looked at Uchikage, he was impressed and nodded.

“Reizen-dono …hmm? You have a good naming sense for Reizen-dono. I would like to meet him once.”

“Ah about that, he’s pretty goof- clumsy, you know? And he is a tough one”

“Tough …?”

“His defense power is otherworldly insane. Maybe right now he has the same defense power as your overall attack power.”

“What …that means my attack is meaningless toward him …”

“I haven’t got a single status with four digits yet …”

I know just having a big number doesn’t mean everything, but I still want status with four digits at least.

I thought my status was pretty average.

I think it’s good because I don’t have any weak points, but my growth is pretty slow.

I haven’t verified the experience points from defeating monsters with this form yet …

I have to try various things.

“By the way, are there any average status points?”

“There are … Onis tend to have higher attack power. I think humans have 300 points on average. I think it depends on their profession, there are no human beings with a status point over 1,000. “

“Oh, is that so? Then I’m already above the average.”

I was a bit relieved.

It makes me very sad if I evolve that much but my status isn’t greater than a normal villager.

However, according to Uchikage, humans have overwhelmingly lower stats than beastmen and demons, but their skills and magic are extremely strong.

It may be better to stay alert when facing humans.

Of course, it varies depending on every individual, but when it comes to S rank adventurers, it seems every rank has a different power and you can’t leap suddenly to the highest rank.

I don’t want to meet someone who is strong enough to defeat Uchikage.

But it’s better to confirm this by asking Uchikage, right?

“S rank adventurer … What is an adventurer? Is there a meaning behind their rank?”

“Why do you ask?”

“I want to be an adventurer and walk around this world when this turmoil is over.”

“… What if the princess sad?”

“When that happens, you can cover for me if she gets angry too!”

“Oh hell no!? Her affection for me is already rock bottom and now you want it more deeper?

I and Satella laughed at his reaction.

Uchikage is holding his head, but his face is laughing.

Well, I think Uchikage would think of the way when that happens.

And my other reason is, I want an adventure of my own.

I don’t want to stick around with the Onis for the rest of my life.

I want to travel the world and I want to be stronger than anything else.

Well, my main purpose is to evolve, but it’s too wasteful not to explore such an interesting world.

It’s not that I can’t meet them later for the rest of my life.

I’ll come back from time to time.

For example this katana, I think only the Onis have access to make this sword.

After laughing for a while, we decided to go back to the topic.

About adventurers.

I also want to ask about the guild at this time.

However, Uchikage seemed to be wondering what to talk about.

I wonder if this topic is troublesome?

“That’s right … Let’s start with the rank.”
