BXBX NOVEL Chapter 91
The monetary amount from each sovereign was written.
"That seems correct.”
He’d made more than three billion won. The moonstones were a stone of good fortune for Kang-jun.
‘Huhu, I can buy a building with this.’
He had received a text message earlier saying that the money had been deposited.
Han Yeon-soo had come here directly to give him the details.
She said with a coy smile,
"Then, that work is done. Don’t worry, I will take care of the legal matters related to taxes.”
"I am grateful that you are always taking care of me.”
"But are you still refusing to deal with the Black Dragon Law Firm? It seems like you are actively engaged in trading moonstones with the sovereign.”
"No. Negotiation is possible. How about 30 million won per moonstone, provided that you also give me 15 essences per moonstone?”
Kang-jun presented the same conditions he had offered to the sovereigns.
If she accepted, he would be able to do bulk transactions with the Black Dragon Law Firm without going through the sovereigns.
Han Yeon-soo made a distressed expression and said,
"Wait a moment.”
She called someone and talked to them for a while. After finishing the call, she looked at Kang-jun.
"It doesn’t matter what type of essence?”
"Of course."
"Then, we have one condition. You have to trade 1,000 moonstones with every deal.”
"1,000?”
“Yes. We will only accept your terms if you give us that much.”
“Okay, then how about 2,000?”
Han Yeon-soo’s eyes widened.
"2,000? Is that really possible?”
She knew that Kang-jun had a lot of moonstones, but she wasn’t expecting that much.
Kang-jun smiled.
“If that is too many, should I just give 1,000?”
“No. The more you give us, the better it will be. 2,000, right?”
Han Yeon-soo asked nervously like she was afraid Kang-jun would change his mind. Kang-jun nodded.
“Yes, but how do I make the deal with you? Moonstones can’t leave Hwanmong.”
Han Yeon-soo smiled like she wasn’t worried.
"Once you enter Hwanmong, our merchant will go to your base. Of course, 30,000 essences will be sent to your base before that. Please hand over the 2,000 moonstones to the merchant.”
“I see.”
Just like in reality, Kang-jun could trade with the Black Dragon Law Firm in Hwanmong. Everything was taken care of.
He would receive 30,000 essences.
Wasn’t that enough to upgrade his wings by a few stages?
It was possible to reach Stage 4 or Stage 5. Kang-jun’s heart started beating faster.
Han Yeon-soo then talked to someone on the phone again, after which she spoke to Kang-jun once more.
"The transaction price has now been deposited into your account. Please confirm it.”
“Already? How is it so fast?”
As soon as Kang-jun finished talking, his Skia rang.
[￦60,000,000,000 has been deposited.]
There was a text message stating that 60 billion won had been sent from the Black Dragon Law Firm.
’6-60 billion!’
Kang-jun’s mouth dropped open. It was 30 million for one. So, 2,000 moonstones were worth 60 billion won.
He felt something strange as the money was deposited into his account.
’60 billion. I can’t believe it.’
Kang-jun already owned three buildings that were worth more than five billion won.
When the 60 billion won was added, it was possible that he would soon reach 100 billion. He had once thought that Yoo Seung-hwan was powerful.
Of course, this was just the beginning.
He was the strongest among the Earth Hwanmong sovereign, but it was still surprising when thinking of the fact that he once stayed in a 250,000 won goshiwon.
‘This is still nothing compared to a conglomerate.’
He earned money every day, so he thought that he should spend some money. He could buy buildings. He would buy one as soon as something suitable emerged.
However, he wanted to spend money on more than that.
Buildings weren’t a luxury.
He just needed to spend money in some way. That way he wouldn’t feel any regrets if he lost and was pulled into hell.
If he was just satisfied with having money, what was the difference between being rich or poor?
‘Yes. I will go and eat delicious food.’
He hadn’t had dinner yet.
Hayun was preparing to cook, but today he decided to try some expensive food.
‘Hayun must be struggling since she has to cook every day, so let’s have a meal outside.’
It was the same for Colt.
In the meantime, Han Yeon-soo had helped him a lot, so he also wanted to treat her.
‘Where should we go?’
Suddenly, he recalled the restaurant in Cheongdam-dong called Morning House, where the owner of the convenience store he worked at went to.
One serving of meat was more expensive than what Kang-jun earned in a day.
Of course, there were many more expensive restaurants. The restaurant in Cheongdam-dong, managed by his allied sovereign Rosina, was more expensive.
However, there was a reason he wanted to go to that restaurant.
It had once been a symbol of despair for him. A place where only the rich went - it was a symbol of wealth.
It had made the poor Kang-jun feel desperate, thus making it a symbol of despair.
However, he didn’t have to think about that anymore.
Kang-jun got up.
“Hayun, Colt! We are going to eat meat.”
“Meat?”
"Really?"
Hayun and Colt welcomed it. They gained power from Kang-jun and now they could become human even outside his territory.
No one would look at them strangely if they went to a restaurant like normal people.
"Lawyer-nim should come with me. I’ll pay.”
“Yay! I’ll accept at any time.”
Han Yeon-soo agreed. Kang-jun smiled.
"Then let’s go down to the underground parking garage.”
Kang-jun drove the Venta S class and stored it when they reached the restaurant.
There wasn’t a crowd in front of the building. Still, it would be annoying if the people at the restaurant found out, so he wore sunglasses and a hat.
"Let’s go. Eat beef!”
"I will eat three servings.”
"Lord, I can eat enough for six people.”
"I will have four servings of rib eye.”
That was a total of 13 servings. Was that really possible?
In particular, Colt was a very strong eater.
At this rate, it would cost over one million won!
However, Kang-jun didn’t even blink.
“Hahaha! Don’t worry and eat as much as you want."
He had earned 63.06 billion won, so one million was laughable.
They returned after eating beef heartily.
He was sick of beef for a while.
[The door to Hwanmong is open.]
Two days later, he returned to Hwanmong.
Kang-jun appeared at the base of the Yugang building where Keirun was eagerly waiting.
“Lord! 30,000 essences have been sent to us from Crodin’s camp.
There was no doubt that it was from the Black Dragon Law Firm.
‘The boss of the Black Dragon Law Firm is probably Crodin.’
Kang-jun smiled.
“Don’t be surprised. It is what I exchanged for 2,000 moonstones. I need to strengthen my wings.”
"Huhu, I don’t know how you did it but it is a huge deal. If you leave a few hundred Essence of Earth and Essence of Darkness, I can use them to summon troops.”
“I thought that as well. Rather, is there a merchant?”
“They are waiting at the rest area, so I will call them now.”
A female elf wearing colourful clothes appeared in front of Kang-jun and greeted him politely.
"I am one of Crodin’s merchants. My name is Papillio. I was sent here by Crodin.”
She handed Kang-jun a scroll.
[To Lucan, Earth Hwanmong’s strongest sovereign.
Thank you for believing in us and trading a large amount of moonstones.
In order to continue a smooth transaction, please allow Merchant Papillio to stay at your base.
If you don’t mind, then trade 1,000 moonstones with Papillio whenever you can afford it.
I will be counting on you.
-Dark Dragon Crodin]
‘Dark dragon?’
A dark dragon called Crodin? It seemed like he was the owner of the Black Dragon Law Firm in reality. That’s why it had the name Black Dragon attached to it.
‘They said they are a neutral force, so why is Crodin buying moonstones?’
He didn’t know the reason why.
However, Kang-jun could receive money and essences from selling moonstones.
He immediately handed over 2,000 moonstones to Papillio and quietly entered the warehouse.
The warehouse had extended and all types of essences were piled up like mountains.
‘Now, should I strengthen my wings?’
To strengthen his wings to Stage 3:
Kang-jun converted 2,000 Essence of Wing at once.
[2000 points of Chaos Power have been obtained.]
-Chaos Power needed to upgrade to Stage 3: 2000/2000
At that moment, his wings shone with a brilliant light.
[The Wings of Chaos have been strengthened to Stage 3.]
[Your damage has greatly increased.]
[Health has risen by 1,000 points.]
[Black magic energy has risen by 1,000 points.]
[You have awakened the Clone’s Will.
[You can summon a clone.]
‘Oh! A clone?’
Just like Heksia and the lord level monsters, Kang-jun could now summon a clone.
Wings of Chaos (Stage 3)
-Rating: Myth
-Wings with a chaotic will.
-Free flight is possible.
-Health +3000, Black Magic Energy +3000.
-As the stage rises, attack power will increase significantly.
-Resistance to all properties will greatly increase.
-Will of Survival will activate automatically when health drops below 30%.
-You can summon a clone.
-Starting from Stage 2, a unique skill will be gained at every stage.
-From Stage 4, the probability of failure will rise.
-Chaos Power needed to upgrade to Stage 4: 0/8000
‘A clone!’
He immediately tried to summon a clone.
Sususu.
A clone with the same appearance as Kang-jun popped up. However, he had no equipment. He only wore rugged clothing.
[The clone has 1/3rd of the main body’s combat power.]
[The power of the clone will rise every time you level up.]
[If the clone is equipped with appropriate equipment, the attack power will rise.]
[If the clone is destroyed, it can be regenerated by consuming 1,000 Chaos Power.]
‘Hrmm.’
The clone had 1/3rd of the main body’s attack power.
It would be useful when dealing with lower ranked monsters.
However, he shouldn’t abuse it. If it was destroyed, it would require 1,000 Chaos Power to recreate the clone. Particularly, it also needed equipment to suit combat.
‘I will call it only once in awhile. Summon release!’
The clone turned into smoke and entered Kang-jun’ wings.
Kang-jun continued to strengthen it to Stage 4.
As this went on, the Chaos Power required increased greatly at Stage 4.
-From Stage 4, the probability of failure will rise.
-Chaos Power needed to upgrade to Stage 4: 0/8000
Furthermore, the probability of failure rose. There was a chance it might fail.
‘Damn! If this fails, 8,000 essences will fly away.’
Kang-jun took a deep breath and filled the Chaos Power.
-Chaos Power needed to upgrade to Stage 4: 8000/8000
As soon as 8,000 essences were converted to Chaos Power, a message appeared.
[Would you like to consume 8,000 points of Chaos Power to strengthen the Wings of Chaos to Stage 4?]
[Yes/No]
[The Chaos Power consumed won’t be restored if it fails.]
‘Yes! Please!’
It wasn’t one or two, but 8,000 essences. He didn’t even want to think about failure.
However...
[You have failed to strengthen the Wings of Chaos to Stage 4.]
-Chaos Power needed to upgrade to Stage 4: 0/8000
‘......’
Kang-jun was speechless for a moment.
He thought it was a mistake, but that wasn’t the case.
It had failed. 8,000 essences had flown away.
“Damn!”
Kang-jun grumbled and converted the essences to Chaos Power again. He still had 20,000 essences remaining, so he tried again.
[You have failed to strengthen the Wings of Chaos to Stage 4.]
-Chaos Power needed to upgrade to Stage 4: 0/8000
Once again, it was a failure!
“Come on! I’m going crazy.”
16,000 had been wasted.
He was in such a bad mood that he felt like tearing the wings.
"This is the last time. Please, work this time!”
Kang-jun once again converted 8,000 Chaos Power. Now, he only had 4,000 essences left.
The third attempt!
Would it fail again this time?
Hwaaack!
At that moment, his wings shone with a brilliant light.
[The Wings of Chaos have been strengthened to Stage 4.]
[Your damage has increased greatly.]
