Reincarnated Hero System

"You still have that?

What rank was that one anyway?"

It was naturally the guild card that the boy had gotten when he and Laurene went to register with the adventurer's guild in Merdin, close to a year ago.

"It was a D rank card.

And I still need it cause it's the only one I have that gives me a direct line to Laurene. It's what I used when I contacted her today, after all."

"Makes sense. The other one's B rank now, right?"

"Yep."

Evan held up his newly acquired silver and gold lined B rank adventurer guild card before continuing.

"I haven't done as many quests as required of a B ranker though. I'd just been brute forcing things up with my level."

"No shit. I'm the only one in our party who actively does quests."

"True.

Come to think of it, you were turning in a few quests this morning.

Maybe I'd take up a few quests after we deal with the undead."

As he broached the topic of the undead monsters that they were going to battle next, Eliza asked a question while rubbing Kuro's chin.

"Undead enough to wipe out every living thing in the northern part of your country? It's quite baffling.

Just where on Aidos could someone possibly store that many undead, undetected?"

In response to the girl's question, Evan pulled out a few artifacts from his inventory as he replied.

"Inside the dungeons of a dungeon city called Bultom."

"And the adventurers who go into said dungeons don't notice this?"

"They don't.

Reason being the nature of Bultom City's dungeons."

Evan put down the things in his hands and dug his left arm into his inventory once more as he continued his reply.

"Of the five dungeons in Bultom city, three are undead dungeons.

It's kind of like hiding a Tree in a forest. If you wanna hide an army of undead, then do it in a dungeon that naturally has undead monsters within it."

"That makes a lot of sense."

"There're also the nobles who betrayed the Duke and sided with the Demonic Hand, in return for profits and promises of power, authority, long life and pretty much the usual bullshit.

Those guys are hiding a lot of undead in their domains too.

Besides, the Eighth finger of the Demonic Hand's contracted demon, happens to have a large expansive space that's almost the same as my inventory.

And that space is large enough to contain hundreds of thousands of undead monsters."

"That certainly is a lot."

Evan nodded in response to Eliza's words as he pulled out a small water turbine from his inventory, with the girl giving him a strange gaze as she asked.

"Why do you have that?"

"I was about to ask the same thing myself."

"You do like picking up random stuff so it's not all that surprising."

The boy's brow twitched as he dropped the turbine back into his inventory and spoke.

"One of said 'random stuff' that I picked up is a bracelet that doubles your energy manipulation speeds. I don't remember hearing a 'thank you' for that…"

Eliza chuckled as she heard his words, bringing the arm-bearing bracelet up to her chest, and holding it gently before giving Evan a soft, sweet, unabashed smile.

"Thank you."

Although it was two simple words that he heard almost every day, Evan felt that the smile that accompanied the words right now made them sound a whole lot different in his ears.

However, the boy simply heaved a sigh before poking the girl's cheeks with his fingers, returning to his task of sorting out his inventory right after.

Eliza's gaze trailed down to the items on the floor and noticed a few bags of gold coins, with three words escaping her lips right after.

"Dude, you're rich."

"Well…close to half of it is money that belongs to the three of us as a party. But even so, I guess I am considered pretty rich."

"Close to half of it is still two dozen bags of gold coins, you know?

Even rich merchants don't walk around with that much money, and I know that this isn't all of it because we all have a lot more in the bank."

Despite this being a topic that hadn't been broached before, there actually existed banks in Aidos. One would not expect rich travelling merchants to carry bags of gold coins while travelling long distances to sell their wares, or find people with inventory skills to hold their money for them.

They naturally kept their money, in banks that existed in basically every country of Aidos, with Evan doing the same thing.

Half of the money the boy actually had was in banks, with the other half being inside his inventory. Even so, that other half was still a lot, hence the reason why he always received surprised gazes whenever he tossed out a bag of gold coins like it was nothing.

As for the source of the boy's riches, well, his job as an adventurer actually gave him the least amount of money.

He hardly took on quests, but when he did, it was always the high-paying quests he picked. He also sold the corpses of the thousands of monsters that he and his party members had killed inside whatever dungeons they had dived into.

Both to the adventurer's guilds, or some rich merchants, or directly to mages and alchemists who needed monster materials for their experiments.

He also got a lot of money from his adventures in the casinos in Uswil's capital, Shad Glua. Pride was naturally skilled at gambling but Evan didn't have much in the way of gambling skills.

So, the boy copied the actions of another spirit contractor he had met over there, using the incorporeal spirits, Kayla and Kuro to cheat.

Unfortunately for the casinos he had 'robbed', they didn't have people capable of sensing spirits standing guard so Evan could get away with his actions.

Or rather, the boy purposely avoided taking such actions in any place where he sensed a huge amount of spirits clustering as there was a high chance that they were gathered around someone with a similar constitution as him.
