Stuck in The Tower

Chapter 47 Do you want to sell frogs?

quest. Everyone who climbs the tower wants to receive it, but there are exceptions.

A quest that cannot be cleared.

A quest with no way out.

A quest with a huge penalty.

Typically, there are three of these, but the quest given by this great NPC has one more condition.

[Rilka’s Request-Forced Quest (1)]

Forcibly activating this quest regardless of one’s will.

The quest that occurred on the ninth floor was also forced.

The quest started automatically when I touched the trigger once.

‘But I could have given up on that in the middle.’

The portal had already opened by the time you killed 10 Horned Wolves, and you could give up the quest and go up if you wanted.

But this guy.

“Let’s do a quest!”

There is no way out or anything.

A literal catastrophe. A very cute prisoner who sprinkles big taffy on everyone.

Even NPCs can’t attack. Because they are oppressed by force.

“Look at that person. I think you got caught by Rilka?”

“You’re not having bad luck. Have you just climbed to the 10th floor?”

“I guess so. You don’t even talk unless you’re new.”

“Life at the top was a mess. Tsk tsk. what to do later?”

“But since one person was caught this time, it should be safe for a while, right?”

Did Rilka’s appearance draw attention?

People passing by shake their heads with pitiful expressions.

“lol. Let’s do it well.”

Rilka grabbed me as if I didn’t care about the other people’s eyes.

This is difficult.

It’s a quest, it’s a nabal, and I have to avoid the seat for now.

If you stand out in the eyes of a large guild for no reason, you’ll get tired.

“uh? Where! hey!”

I shook off Rilka and ran away from the crowd.

trot. As soon as I ran, I hid in the alley.

I was able to breathe a sigh of relief only after confirming that no one was there.

At the bottom, it was almost a big deal.

“You run away. Isn’t that too much?”

“what. Did you already follow me?”

Someone ran out of breath, but that NPC didn’t lose a single hair.

The NPC said it was dirty. looks like it was real.

I don’t know that.

I did things I couldn’t be afraid of people’s eyes.

“Aww! Have you ever seen such a shitty quest!”

“Dog poo?”

screaming straight to the sky.

Rilka was shocked, but it didn’t catch my eye.

That’s also the quest Rilka gave me.

[Rilka’s Request – Compulsory Quest (1)]

-Rilka is a merchant and blacksmith of NPCs.

-The sheer number of orders is too much for her to handle alone.

– How about helping her?

-Viper Skin (0/50)

-Fragmented Dragon’s Scales (0/1)

-Reward: Rilka and NPCs’ favorability increase

-If it fails, the relationship with the NPCs will be strained.

– Rilka’s quest is prioritized. You cannot receive quests in the 10th floor safe zone.

– All materials must be airlifted by hand.

Because each one contained gem-like content.

First you have to get all the quest materials yourself.

The story that you can’t buy it from the shop window or private trade.

error from here

No matter how you collect the materials, you must die at least once to proceed with the quest.

Because Rilka is on the 10th floor.

‘I think this is fine because I have infinite coins, but the rest is a problem.’

Viper skin? Okay. At most, it’s a 2-star monster. If it’s me, I can catch enough.

But what about the fire dragon?

“It’s a 5-star monster!”

“Geugegege!”

I cried and Deokchun cried too.

I was already half-dead fighting Dalkan on the ninth floor.

You survived at best, but what about this time? Fire Dragon?

It’s ridiculous, to the point of laughing nonsense.

‘This is why people say it’s the worst.’

And that’s not all.

Because of this quest, you cannot receive all the quests available on the 10th floor, and if you fail, your relationship with many NPCs will deteriorate.

Of course, if you don’t get along well with NPCs, you’ll have trouble accepting quests.

In other words, just giving up on the quest would result in a huge penalty.

‘Wouldn’t it be nice to have a reward at least?’

Like a special item or skill. Or, if you give them a title, you can move on while saying yes.

However, this quest has only one reward, increasing favorability.

Difficulty level is extreme. Compensation is subtle.

How did you fill it up with such garbage-like conditions?

Is it a funny hidden camera?

Surprisingly, it’s not over yet.

[Rilka’s Request – Compulsory Quest (1)]

It must be a chain quest.

It’s not something you do once and it’s over.

hey exciting. fun. happy.

I tried to protect my mentality through self-suggestion.

“are you okay. are you okay. The tower is also a place where people live.”

Seeing Rilka sneaking up to me and patting me on the back made my blood pressure soar.

Who are you doing this for?

He’s too carefree for the guy who created this division.

I want to blow a chestnut on the top of my head. I want to.

[Rilka-NPC]

-Red fox Suin.

-NPC merchant and blacksmith.

– Information is not readable due to large gaps.

Judging from the information shown through the Authority, he is not an opponent worth attacking.

The gap is large and the information is unreadable.

That strong Dalkan also read more information than that.

“If you’re that strong, you won’t be able to gather the ingredients yourself.”

I muttered softly.

“ah. It’s not my domain to get those things. Just try harder.”

Rilka clenched her dainty fists and shouted fighting.

what?

Is his affinity good or is his shamelessness overstepping the mark?

It’s too much to pretend to be friendly. Anyone who sees you will know that you’ve known each other for a long time.

done. Let’s not try to understand.

In the first place, I heard that there are many idiots among NPCs.

A story about a guy missing a screw or two.

It is also strange that there is a summit among the things belonging to the pagoda.

I have to ask you one thing though.

“Why is it me?”

wiped the face

It is unfair. Out of all those many people, why did you stab me with a quest?

not even kind The guy who frowned and touched his chin gave an answer.

“hmm. The kids here avoid me when they see me. I was aiming for a newcomer who had just come up.”

In short, it doesn’t mean that you know how people treat you.

shit. I should have avoided it too. I didn’t expect to meet you as soon as I came up.

“That’s that, and you have a lot of fun things, right? I think you can do it.”

Rilka, her eyes twinkling, looks up and down at me.

Eyes with a mixture of curiosity and greed.

My body was about to tremble at the moment of intense force.

I think the treasure goblin who fought on the 7th floor looked like that.

“It’s Dalkan’s fur scarf, so it’s precious. It feels very nice and there must be quite a few people who will covet it.”

A guy who wags his tail and circles around me.

It is a serious face as if appreciating an item.

“Treasure bags are common, but nice. Ohh? Did you hear anything interesting inside? Like what you’re wearing. Still, it’s what interests me the most.”

-Toktok

“This guy. A frog with the Chaos attribute. Are you thinking of selling this to me? I don’t know if you know it, but I’m a blacksmith and merchant.”

“On him?”

What trick did you do?

Deokchun, who was quietly hiding under his armor, was caught in Rilka’s hand before he knew it.

Deokchun was also embarrassed, but he struggled, but he didn’t budge.

Even if it looks like that, Deokchun is a strong trader.

I wanted to see a little more because it was a rare sight, but I held back for a while.

“I don’t sell. Don’t set your eyes on other people’s pets.”

“Quack!”

When I stretched out my hand, he unexpectedly gave Deokchun back to me.

I was worried that I might be messing around.

“Ahhh!”

It’s nice to see you again, but Deokchun holds my face tightly.

It feels strange to gain weight quickly on a sucker.

Think of it as an expression of affection.

“Hmm. Too bad. It’s a really rare case, so I thought I’d pay a high price to take it. Roughly enough?”

-Uuuuu As

Rilka waved her hand, a hologram appeared in front of her eyes.

Could it be an inventory? There are various objects in the cells divided into grids.

Glancing at me feels like asking me to take a look.

upstart.

I have no intention of selling Deokchun for anything.

I’m curious though.

“Kuhm.”

I cleared my throat and looked through the list.

Let’s see. The one in the front looks like a hammer.

[Earth Hammer (S)]

– A hammer created by gathering the spirits of the Hupopuko continent.

– All stats +100% when on the ground

– Earth’s blessing applied.

– Apply super armor.

– Increased affinity with the Earth Spirit. (Lesser Spirit commands available 20/20)

.

.

.

“ok?”

I blinked.

did i read it wrong?

S-class item? That said, it’s worth calling from outside the tower?

It’s impossible to even get it in the usual way, right?

I followed up with other items as well.

[The red leaves of the battlefield (S)]

[The flute that summons the plague (S)]

[The evil soldier 怪惡兵丁 (SS)]

There were things that looked like materials and artifacts.

At the very end, there was even an SS level skill book.

there was actually It’s an SS-level skill. I thought it was all guesswork.

Just by looking at the skill name, it looks great. no. Anything SS is fine.

-Gulp

I drool without even realizing it.

The B-class skill Fire Bomb, which I have right now, boasts decent destructive power, and the only A-class skill to return it also performs to the point of being fraudulent.

How about that one that surpasses even S-class?

‘Even if you learn that, if you go outside, you’ll be classified as a top-notch hunter.’

Of course you will.

There was no SS class among the skills revealed so far.

Of course, the reluctance to disclose detailed specifications might be as much as the Hunter world, but even if there was, it was clear that it was only a small part.

“Ehehehe. How are you interested?”

Putting aside the hologram, Rilka showed her face.

Unknowingly, my eyes followed the hologram.

did you see that

The corners of Rilka’s eyes and lips, which had already risen, darkened even more.

“Now, I’m willing to be generous and buy it on slightly better terms.”

Are you going to offer better terms here?

Although it was momentarily tempting.

“Ahhhh!”

– Iron puck!

Deokchun’s tongue made him come to his senses.

ah. It’s been a while since I’ve been slapped on the cheek with my tongue.

He restored his neck to its original state and wiped the saliva on his cheek.

Don’t worry, Deokchun.

I’m loyal too, because I have no intention of abandoning you.

I stroked Deokchun’s back.

“refuse.”

I said it as firmly as possible.

I’m honestly greedy.

Items that are no different from treasures. It’s weird if you’re not greedy.

It is also plastered with an S shape.

‘I have to go up to the 100th floor anyway.’

It may seem great now, but there was no guarantee that it would be so later.

Of course, climbing would be easy.

My body is comfortable, I can save time, and I can laugh even when I go outside…..

I was shaken by the temptation again, but I shook my head.

Rilka is a merchant. Merchants don’t do anything to lose money.

It is the same as proof that Deokchun is worth paying that price.

I can’t grow well.

Wouldn’t one day become a strong and reliable partner enough to chew on everything, whether it’s S-level or SS-level?

Is that right, Deokchun?

“That’s right.”

It looked completely unreliable, but let’s ignore it.

And I already had a lot of affection with Deokchun.

I’ve had a lot of help. To me, it is a precious existence.

The shaken heart is settled.

Did you notice my heart? Rilka put on a pouty expression.

“Ugh. I can’t help it if you don’t like it. Let me know if you change your mind later! good job quest I have something else to do, so stop!”

After erasing the hologram, Rilka spat out her own words and then disappeared with great speed.

Because he is a beast, his speed is amazing.

Because it became a dot in an instant.

Seeing her walk away for a moment, I let out a small sigh.

“ah. Lose self-confidence.”

“The ark.”

Deokchun bites his tongue as well.

It felt like a storm had raged through.

Bargaining for a compulsory quest.

Besides, he said nothing and disappeared.

Are all NPCs like this?

“Let’s calm down.”

I washed my face and moved on.

Whether you like it or not, it happened.

Rilka’s Quest. As a result, many plans were twisted, but I decided to think positively.

A quest everyone hates. An unknown quest that has never been cleared before.

Since I have infinite coins, I can take on the challenge.

It will help me as much as I have things that others can’t have.

Thanks to that, I couldn’t do other quests on the 10th floor for a while.

“doesn’t care. Besides quests, there are more things you can get on the 10th floor.”

I wasn’t neglecting my preparation either.

Event. Let’s aim for that first.
