BXBX NOVEL Chapter 20
“Omomo, Our Ha Leeha is here〜? Are the rumors true?”
“What kind of rumor is it?”
“That, didn’t you go to the pub earlier? How can I not know what’s going on in Candle Castle? I heard all the news of your successful hunt.”
The restaurant auntie doesn’t seem to be so kind. ‘Besides, how did she know about going to the pub earlier?’
Now, Leeha’s Candle Castle NPC intimacy is 70%.
If it reaches 100%, it might be possible that NPCs will let him stay at their house at night.
“You don’t need to get confirmation from the chef?”
“There’s no need since our Ha Leeha did a great job. Let me see it.”
“Oh, oh yeah.”
Leeha took out the rabbit and Black Angus meat that he had obtained while hunting alone during the night.
“This is black-furred rabbit meat.”
Madame Lou’s expression changed, her eyes had the light similar to a woman looking at diamond.
“Two of them came out, and they were so big. I had a hard time.”
“That’s what I heard. Don’t worry, we will give you a special reward. Ohonghong, what will it taste like if you grill meat with this?”
Chalgeulag, a coin pouch was placed on the counter. And babam! The sound effect rang.
[You have completed the quest.]
[You have acquired 50 copper.]
‘Oh, that’s right. This is not a place where the conditions were changed with the bargaining skill, and the affinity did not increase.’
Leeha was a bit disappointed, but he was still satisfied. In the first place, the quest for Black Angus started here and he was able to bargain with other NPCs.
“It will take some time to make the lunch box, right?”
“Um, I’m going to be cooking it anyway, so it will be done soon. And as she spoke those words, Madame Lou leaned her upper body against the counter, and leaned her face to Leeha. A quest window appeared. Leeha regretted that his prediction was right.
[Coordination with the development of a new menu of the Holy Grill(2)]
Description: To be the best meat restaurant in Middle Earth, you need to make one more dish. ‘If it’s Ha Leeha, he might be successful. With the Candle Mountain’s monstrous Golden Eagle’s Roast Wing and Oriental Barbecue added, the Holy Grill’s “Truth” will succeed.
Content: Golden Eagle Meat (0/1)
Reward: 1 Madame Lou special lunch box using the Golden Eagle
‘Linked quest, this.’
Madame Lou opened her mouth before Leeha could even start reading.
“You know the Golden Eagle in the mountain behind Candle Castle? Guard Captain Jiat will give the strangers orders to hunt it. If we make a roast wing with that muscular guy’s wings and an oriental barbecue with its thighs, it will taste great.” With Madame Lou’s words, Leeha understood.
The final hurdle to the Candle Castle beginner quest, the Golden Eagle Raid. In this case, there was some information from the community.
At level 10, the last hunting quest of Candle Castle given by the Guard Captain.
It’s a content that forces party play, it is said that the strength and difficulty is actually not easy.
In fact, it’s not an exaggeration to say that it’s the final quest for beginners.
‘But these lunch boxes wasn’t mentioned? No, of course! Because this is a linked quest given by the restaurant.
People who simply followed the quest side of the Guard Captain would not know.
“But the reward, it is a lunch box again?”
“Hmm, don’t you see what a great lunch box it is.”
“Oh, I know. I know. Haha, it was a joke.”
“Yes? You know, Candle Castle is a remote village, right? This time we are going to open a second store in the capital, and to do that, we need the meat of the golden eagle. That’s why I’m asking you.”
“But what’s the “Truth”?”
“Ah, if you want to do a ‘big thing’ in the capital, Oheungheung, you know. You should have something to give.”
Only then did he realize what the “Truth” meant.
Truth(To go up). It means giving it as a tribute to someone.
‘Did she have an agreement with an official? First of all, it’s not bad to have a friendly NPC in the capital. But what’s that got to do with opening a restaurant branch?’
Leeha put an end to his worries.
“I’ll do it.”
The Golden Eagle Raid should be done anyway, but it would be nice if there was something connected like this.
“Oheungheung, okay. I’ll make the lunch box right away, so wait.”
Leaning at the restaurant counter for about 30 minutes, Leeha was surprised to see the lunch box brought by Madame Lou.
“What do you think? It’s not a normal lunch box, right?”
“Heol .
〈Excellent special lunch box (Black Angus)〉
Description: A special lunch box made by Madame Lou of the Holy Grill. When eating together, you wouldn’t notice even if three people die. The meat of the the rabbit unlike any other rabbit, the Black Angus will make you stronger.
Non-Tradable.
Effect: Agility +1, Constitution +2. Permanent.
Permanent increase?
It’s not a temporary buff.
‘What kind of beginner village does this come out in? Besides, what does it mean to be excellent?’
The grade of the item, Leeha knew this as well. Leeha’s gun, the ‘lower crude muskets’, the term ‘lower’, Kijeong said that was the worst grade.
Low-class, Ordinary, Excellent, Extraordinary, Rare.
Items that have been revealed so far are up to the 5th tier, and “excellent” means that it is a third-tier item.
‘Although the figures seem to be small, the permanent increase is huge.
Eating a lunch box and increasing your stats permanently? The word ‘Non-Tradable’ after the description of the item was very disappointing.
The ring that boosts your constitution by 7 costs 5.5 million won.
Probably it is estimated to be at least special grade, and equipment items may have limitations on use, but, you just have to eat the lunch box and your stats will increase, 1 on agility and 2 on constitution.
‘The cheapest it could sell would be 3 million won!’
It’s equivalent to at least 30 gold.
I almost died, so many f**king times, in order to earn one silver. But I got an item that could earn dozens of gold in one shot.
but, it’s non-tradable!
“Not bad, right? Oheungheung.”
“What do you mean not bad, Madam? It’s the best!”
I almost acted condescending there because my intimacy had increased.
He rubbed his hands neatly. It’s all thanks to Madam, hehe.
The bread sprinkled with Buwak herbs wasn’t that much.
Somehow, unlike other stores, it was suspicious that only this restaurant had its own name.
‘It was a hint that if something is different, it is different. I shouldn’t miss this.’
“Then the golden eagle is-”
“I’ll get it! ASAP!”
“Ohohong, please. Oh, our Kiyomi complimented you for bringing the quality of the rabbit meat he’s been looking for. He told me that he wants you to be his disciple.”
“Kiyo- Ah. Yes. That giant chef… … . Please tell him I said thank you.”
As a disciple? I’m just glad that he doesn’t want to use me as material.
Leeha left the Holy Grill.
“Now then, shall we look at it? Character window.”

Already level 8.
If I level up twice, I can receive the Golden Eagle Raid Quest from Guard Captain Jiat.
‘It’s like hitting two birds with one stone. I can get out of the beginner town with this. Do I have to get anything else?’
Leeha looked down at his shoes.
‘In Level 5, I should have done that quest… … . Even now, Leeha sat on a bench in the square and opened the lunch box. The smell of barbecue spread quickly.
I experienced the taste when I was drinking butter beer, but how about meat?
“What is this smell?”
“Great. I’m hungry.”
“Ah, I want to eat meat. Do you have money?”
“I used it all to buy arrows.”
Two female users sniffed their noses and found the source of the smell. Leeha made eye contact with them, but ignored them and put a piece of meat in his mouth.
‘Wow, what is this meat’s elasticity?’ This chewiness is amazing. The grilling skills that makes use of the light taste of the meat itself.
“Ohh!”
As soon as I ate, my body started to get hot.
[Agility has risen by 1.]
[Your constitution has increased by 2.]
Name: Ha Leeha / Race: Human
Occupation: Musketeer / Level: 8 (0%)
Title: Knows a little about weaknesses / Achievement: 6
HP: 290 / MP: 100
Stat:
Strength 26(+16)
Agility 62(+32)
Intelligence 16(+6)
Constitution16(+6)
Mind 11(+1)
Black Angus’ thigh muscles run through the lower body and peripheral nerves! I thought it wasn’t a “Holy Grill” grill for nothing.
My HP is already 290. Agility is also +32.
“Okay, I will hunt as it is-! I have to go… …
Leeha’s expression, which quickly stood up while snorting, hardened rapidly.
To hunt?
I have to buy gunpowder and bullets.
“Hi.”
“… … Yes, welcome.” As soon as I came in, I felt a bit upset.
The owner of the general store was lying on the sofa, looking at Leeha without even standing up.
Damn it, aren’t you even dealing with a guest properly?
All of the merchant NPCs and intimacy have increased, but why is this general store owner still like this?
“Hmm, hmm. I came to buy some gunpowder.”
“Because of the change of clothes, I think you’ll buy eight this time?”
Ugh, Ugh.
Oh, this merchant, he’s not ordinary. With just one word, he shook my heart like this! The owner of the half bald man was smiling while looking down in his half-lying position.
Leeha opened his bag and checked.
He has 3 silver and 1 copper, and he has 14 sets of gunpowder and ammunition. Wouldn’t it be necessary to buy bullets with all the money he has to raise the level by two more?
23 gunpowder, 2 silver 30 copper, 23 iron ball bullets, 69 copper. That is, if he buys 23 sets, he will use 2 silver 99 copper.
‘Once again 2 copper remains.’
I’ll live like a beggar again.
“Hey, the gunpowder is still 10 copper… … Right?”
“I don’t recall changing the prices recently. Why are you asking something so obvious?”
Is it so difficult to give this answer, ‘yes, that’s right.’ Or will his attitude change as my reputation goes up or level goes up? I’m curious about this.
Anyway, there are currently no Musketeers in this novice town.
In other words, if Leeha did not buy, it’s a bad stock that won’t be sold until the explosives and bullets are rotted.
‘I really don’t want to buy it……
I’m just sad that I can’t do that again..
No, can I raise 2 levels even if I buy 37 sets with all my money?
‘If I think about it until then… …
While raising to level 10, I may not have to use all 37 sets. How much gunpowder and bullets can I with the miscellaneous collected while reaching level 10.
I don’t know if they will buy. In other words, even if I reach level 10 to receive the quest for the golden eagle, I must prepare for a situation where I have no money.
‘It’s getting really serious.’
