I was bombarded with messages that made me dizzy.

In addition to features that facilitate underwater breathing and underwater movement, there is even a treasure map called a confirmed gacha in CS?

My teeth were chattering from the sweetness.

When I saw the entrance to the dungeon, I thought it was a bit out of the ordinary, but then I realized that it was a dragon palace, and the rewards were just handed out.

However, these were only the rewards the system gave me.

The real reward was still to come.

Thrrrrr

The body of the Dragon King was lying in the ruins of the Dragon Palace, slowly disappearing.

Inside were several items.

Each and every one of these items had enough power to be designated as a treasure.

However, there were only a limited number of items, and I was wondering what to do with them.

"Wow, that's a lot of items, for such a big guy."

Young Hoham came up behind me, slung an arm over my shoulder, and looked at the items in front of me.

"Eugene, you can split this with your friends."

"What?"

Young Hoham suddenly said something shocking.

"But didn't you and Kang Hyun contribute a lot to this raid?"

I know better than anyone that unfair reward distribution with NPCs in game raids is a source of discord.

In essence, the distribution of items should be like a knife between parents and children.

However, he shook his head and continued.

"Instead, I'd like to take some of the jewelry and gold coins from the treasury here.

"What?"

I hadn't thought of the treasury'.

Of course, this was a palace, so there had to be a place where riches were stored.

But,

"That would only mean jewelry, pearls, gold coins, and the like."

"I know, I know, but we need them, okay?"

With that, Young Hoham glanced at Kang Hyun.

Ah.'

At that moment, I remembered Kang Hyun's home environment, and I understood.

Rare items often took a long time to dispose of.

"Then I'll be happy to buy any items from the treasure trove through our Corleone route, for a hefty price."

"Sure, sure."

Well, it's the least I can do.

He taps me on the shoulder and smiles.

"By the way, I have one more favor to ask."

"What do you mean, a favor?"

"It's."

* * *

"Thank you, land, thank you, sand, thank you, air, thank you, thank you!"

Led by Young Hoham, we finally returned to land.

As soon as we reached the ground, Jin-woo jumped up and down, and started kissing the ground like crazy.

"Poof, poof, poof, I got sand in my mouth!"

"Is he really an idiot?"

The other members of Familia looked at him pitifully.

"Hahahaha! Hahahaha! Hahahaha! I love sand in my mouth! I love land! I love land!"

But Jin-woo was unfazed by these reactions, rolling around on the beach and laughing happily.

Well, that's more like Jin-woo, but.

"Let's go."

I'm still too embarrassed to be with him. Really.

"What? Where are you going?! Boss? Boss!"

Eventually, we headed to the hotel first, and Jin-woo started to follow.

After informing the soldiers at the entrance that we'd defeated the dungeon, we returned to the hotel and headed straight to our suite.

It wasn't hard to get a sense of how exhausted the other kids were when Young-jae, who had more endurance than the rest of us, said that.

Jin-woo was already sprawled out on the floor, and Se-ah had become one with the couch.

And,

" Mmm. Yummy."

Choi Yeon was scooping up ice cream from who-knows-where.

Of course, I knew that their physical fatigue would be higher than usual since their activities were mainly in the sea, where the resistance is higher than on land, but it was a stark contrast to Kang Hyun, who was sitting in a chair in silence.

Oh well, he doesn't tire easily in the water, so it wasn't too hard for him.

I clap my hands to get their attention back to me.

"First, I'll distribute the items from the Dragon Palace."

I began to place the items on the table one by one, as they were appraised through the system window.

At first glance, the items give off an unusual aura.

I immediately began to distribute the items according to their characteristics and abilities.

For Choi Yeon, who loves swords, I gave her the Sea Dragon King Sword.

Dragon scales for Se-ah, who needs magic resistance.

Sea Wind Shoes for Jin-woo, who gets stronger in the wind.

Aquamarine for Young-jae, who uses multi-attribute magic.

And antler for me, who loves elixirs.

The problem was that this was Young Hoham.

"Why doesn't Eugene keep the Dragon Amulet, after all, he's the one who scored the critical hit on the dragon king, and he's the one who did the most damage."

With Young Hoham's well-timed assist, I naturally ended up with the Amulet.

Well, that's what I'd been dealing for in the first place.

Honestly, the other items were either overlapping with things I was using or things I had no use for, so this was ideal.

"And the rest is from the treasure trovemost of which is mundane, so I'm going to sell it through the International Trade Club and split the profits. Any objections?"

The kids say nothing.

"Let's go with that, then, everyone. You guys did a great job on today's raid. Thank you, big brother Youngho."

"Hahahaha! Never mind! It was fun thanks to you, kid!"

With that, Young Hoham stands up from his seat.

"After all the hard work, shouldn't we go eat something delicious? Ma! Get up, everyone! Let's go eat crabs!"

He shouted to the children, who were still recovering from their exhaustion.

The children's gazes turned to Young Hoham.

"Brother YounghoIm so tired, can't we just rest for a while?"

Jin-woo, who had almost merged with the ground, pleaded.

"Were going to eat King Crab and snow crab."

"Snow crab?"

"King crab?"

At the mention of snow crab and king crab, Jin-woo and Se-ah's eyes change.

"I've never eaten snow crab before! Let's go!"

"Aye-aye! Eating snow crab and king crab will immediately restore your health! Let's go, big brother!"

Actually, those two. Maybe they weren't tired.

"Hahahaha! That's great! Lets go! Ham's friend runs a business around here!"

""Waaaaaah!""

The children follow after Young Hoham and Kang Hyun stands up to leave as well.

But,

"Kang Hyun, we need to talk briefly."

"?"

He questioned my sudden call to him but eventually, Kang Hyun sat back down and looked at me.

"What did you call me aside to talk about?"

"Your master asked me to ask you a favor."

He stares at me with emotionless eyes.

I tapped my fingers on my desk for a moment to collect my thoughts, then leaned back in my chair to look at him.

"You know about the club I created, right?"

"Familia. It doesn't make sense that a student of Ms. Lee Ji-hyun wouldn't know about it."

"Then you know that it was recently upgraded to Silver status."

He nodded, as if to say he knew.

"What I have to propose to you is simple: would you consider joining Familia?"

"Familia?"

Finally, it became a silver club and I needed to increase the number of club members.

[Name: Familia' (Corleone)]

[Rank: Silver]

[Family members: 5 / 8 (needs a rating boost!)]

[Subsidiary Organizations: 13]

[Environment: Very Good]

[Members of the club are very satisfied!]

The rating increase would allow the club to have more regular members who could be calibrated by the system, rather than a bubble of interns like other clubs but he sighs and shakes his head.

"I appreciate the offer, but I'll have to decline. I can't afford something like that right now"

"Is it because of the part-time job?"

His eyes turn sharp at this.

"Are you also doing background checks now?"

"Of course not. I only heard about it from your teacher, Brother Youngho."

Of course, I'd done my background checks long before that.

"I heard you work at the docks, helping to berth ships. Well, I heard you get paid pretty well, so you can't afford to do anything else. Do you get paid about 30$ per hour?"

At $30 per hour, he makes about $750, working five days a week.

It made sense that he wasn't interested in doing anything else.

"Do you know what the average salary of the children in Familia was last month?"

At the mention of money, his eyes light up with interest.

"How much?"

"Achievement money and rewards for dungeon runs. If you count this and that, it's about."

It was about this much.

"Twenty million won."

The excitement in his eyes gradually began to change.

Interest turns to worry.

Concern turns to choice.

"I think I can give you what you want."

And I expect him to say something like this.VIsit n0(v)eLb(i)n.𝘤𝑜𝓂 for the best novel reading experience
