“……what?”

Kwaaaaang-

* * *

“Kkaaaaaaah!”

‘Wow… … .’

I let out a low sigh as I looked at the stars in the sky.

I sent it into the sky because I was worried that the surrounding demons’ residences would be destroyed, but it really flies far.

‘by the way.’

I let out a small sigh.

‘These days, there are quite a few guys trying to see my information.’

Of course, there have been people who tried to look into my information in the past as well.

but.

[Bundle Invincible destroys ‘Deceiving Eyes’.]

[Bundle Invincible destroys ‘Sinister Gaze’.]

.

.

.

It seems like there’s been a rapid increase in people trying to get my information lately.

‘Still, things are a lot different now than they were in the past.’

I used to know that someone was looking into my information.

I couldn’t pinpoint exactly who was observing me.

‘But these days, I definitely feel something.’

If the other party fails to check my information.

I have a feeling that some guy was trying to see my information.

According to what I found from looking at various videos uploaded on YouTube.

This phenomenon seemed to be called the ‘level inversion’ phenomenon.

[The ability to understand information about your opponent is very useful. However, if you abuse it indiscriminately, you may get into trouble at any time. Usually, the ability to understand information only works on people who are lower level than you, so if you use it on people who are higher level… … .]

‘That’s how it happens.’

Flying bugs are best when they are blown away!

At that time.

“Crunch? Crrrrrr!”

A small, black dragon was glaring at me.

“Crrrrrrr!”

Isn’t it flying hurriedly in the direction the bug flew from?

‘That’s… … .’

There is no dragon on the 35th floor.

Then that hatchling would belong to the raider.

Among the raiders, as far as I know, there is only one who handles dragons.

‘Could it be that I flew the knight?’

“Huh?! Isn’t that Jay? Did the knight come too?”

“I know?”

The raiders also found out about Hatching’s true identity and were gossiping about it.

“Tsk… … .”

One of the attackers starts to leave the position quickly.

“Get out of the way!”

“… … What is this kid doing?!”

Meanwhile, the attacker who was leaving the spot bumped into someone else.

Perhaps because of the shock, the robe that had been covering his head slid down.

“Huh? Where have I seen that guy before? Oh! That guy, that guy! Isn’t that the guy who serves the knights?”

“Ah, I wondered where I had seen you before, and here you are! But why is he here?”

“What the… …! Get out of here!”

Kwaaang-

Amidst the small explosions and loud shouts that echoed throughout the scene.

I looked up at the sky.

‘I guess he was a real knight.’

The Knight’s Hatchling Jay and the Knight’s subordinates.

And judging from their appearance, which seemed somewhat urgent.

It seems that the fly I swept away was really a knight.

‘This is a bit surprising.’

I just blew up the guy who was spying on me like usual.

I thought that was a knight.

I let out a chuckle.

‘But why did that knight try to see my information? Is he trying to do something with the balance of scales? When I watched it on YouTube, it didn’t seem like he was trying to mess with me. Did the knight act on his own?’

Previously, the Balance of Scales had a theme of ‘special stamps’.

A video of them having a serious meeting was uploaded to YouTube.

The conclusion they reached at that time was to ‘wait and see’.

‘Well, it doesn’t matter.’

It doesn’t really matter whether the knight moves alone or the scales of balance move as a group.

If the other person shows me their molars clearly, whoever they are.

Because we can definitely deal with it then.

“Sir, what is going on?”

Meanwhile, some of the attackers cautiously asked me questions.

“These days, there are quite a few people who are curious about my information.”

“Ah… … That’s what it was.”

Some quick-witted attackers quickly nodded as if they understood the situation.

Anyway, I got rid of that annoying bug that was trying to probe me.

Now it’s time to get back to business.

“Haha, there was a little commotion, but the event must go on!”

I waved a basket of fortune cookies at the crowd of people standing in an orderly line.

“Come on, come on, get your fortune cookie, a limited edition item for the New Year’s event! It’s only available today!”

Then, for some reason, the raiders flinch and ask.

“Ah, that’s… … Daegil is a bit… … .”

“… … What happens if you pull out the big chest?”

* * *

Hwaaak-

When I got home, I took out wads of cash from my subspace pockets and cloak.

Hoodduck-

‘Hmm, the smell… … .’

This fragrant smell of money.

It’s a scent that feels good no matter when you smell it.

‘But I have to spend all this money. Ugh… … .’

Adding the 2,865 gold earned today, I now have 10,000 gold in my possession.

I wanted to use this money to develop new abilities.

‘I don’t know about anything else, but the level and ability remain.’

Furthermore, in order to further increase the attack speed of the attackers.

It would be a good idea to secure abilities such as buff food or special stamps in advance.

[The amount required to unlock the ability is 10,000 gold.]

‘Ugh, it’s really freaking expensive.’

10,000 gold. Converted into cash, it’s close to 10 billion won.

If it were me in the past, I wouldn’t have spent this money even if someone held a knife to my throat and told me to.

‘But now I have some free time.’

[The amount required to unlock this ability is 10,000 gold. Would you like to unlock it?]

“okay!”

[10,000 gold will be deducted.]

[Ability, ‘PB Upgrade’ acquired.]

Finally, a woman’s voice rang out.

‘PB Upgrade?’

PB. Private Brand.

It is an abbreviation for ‘Reader Brand’.

It is often written with the word ‘product’ attached to the end, as ‘PB product’.

‘Upgrading to a reader brand… … .’

I think I have a rough idea.

I’m not sure about the exact details.

I need to check my abilities quickly.

Aha, that’s right.

Because the word ‘PB’ is so clear.

I kind of predicted it.

Still, I think the most certain way is to try it once and get a feel for it.

“PB Upgrade.”

That moment.

Ss …

A square piece of paper appeared above my hand.

Inside, the logo [Convenience Store★24] was printed in large letters.

‘This is… … .’

I ran my finger over the logo.

Then the sticker gets caught on the tip of your finger and slowly lifts up.

‘It’s a real sticker.’

Even if the meaning is secondary.

I wonder how effective this sticker is.

‘Didn’t you tell us to put stickers on the products sold at convenience stores?’

I took out a new can of cola that I had kept in the fridge.

‘If you paste it here, you’ll know.’

You will soon find out what effect the stickers have.

The moment I put a sticker on the cola.

Hwaaaaak-

Suddenly, the cola started glowing.

After a while.

I looked at the cola with drowsy eyes.

‘The appearance hasn’t really changed, except for that.’

The [Convenience Store★24] logo is firmly attached to the surface.

Even if I tried to gently pull it off with my hand, I couldn’t get it off at all because it seemed to have become one with the plastic bottle.

Hmm. Convenience store 24 cola… … .

The name is too long.

I guess I should call it 24 Cola.

‘So, 24 Coke? What kind of cola is that?’

I even put an exclusive sticker on it.

If cola becomes barley-flavored cola, then it’s a waste.

‘Let’s take a look at the information… … Hmm?’

I cringed as I read the description of 24 Cola.

Then he slowly raised the corners of his lips.

‘I guess I should try this experiment.’

* * *

5 days later.

41st floor, the land of turrets

“Whew, whoosh… … .”

Today, as always, the raiders gathered in front of the fantasy shop, breathing heavily.

Stare inside the window.

“Listen carefully! I don’t know about anything else, but you absolutely must buy soap! Got it?!”

“yes!”

From those who bring their clan members in droves and burn with fighting spirit.

“Red bean… … cream… … bread… … Red bean cream bread!”

“What?! When it comes to bread, cream puff bread is the truth!”

Some even scream as if they are almost addicted to something.

A motley crowd waits for the translucent glass doors to open.

In the meantime.

“Hey, look over there. Aren’t those the pioneers?”

“The saint and the red flame… … The dark ghost and the guardian of nature… … and… … .”

Some of the attackers let out a low gasp as they looked at the pioneers standing at the very front of the VIP row.

“The members are really awesome… … .”

“Is it true that you cleared the 53rd floor?”

“Just ask around and come back.”

“Hey, are you crazy?! What if you get caught doing that for no reason?”

After the advance party disbanded.

Pioneers who have been reborn as the best strategy in name and reality.

Perhaps because of that, there were many people who talked about them.

“Ugh, really… … !”

Sylvia, one of the parties involved, was constantly grumbling.

“Every time I come here, I feel like there are just too many people. Isn’t there any way to reduce the number?”

“It can’t be helped. The only place that sells things from the outside world is the Fantasy Shop.”

Was Alter’s answer unsatisfactory?

Sylvia frowns.

“Do you think that’s because no one knows? You should sympathize, empathize!”

“… … .”

Alter, who had been blankly staring at Sylvia, snickers.

“Empathy is enough just by being with plants.”

“Oh my, I shouldn’t talk to plant nerds… … . Ah, I want to use the store alone!”

At Sylvia’s shout, the pioneer clan members standing behind her smiled.

Lee Ji-soo didn’t necessarily answer, but she secretly agreed.

‘I liked it when I first discovered the fantasy shop.’

Back then, when rumors about the fantasy shop had not yet spread.

I’d be lying if I said I didn’t miss those days when I almost swept the store clean, and those days when I squeezed out two bottles of shampoo.

‘Still, I guess I should be thankful that I can use things from the outside world.’

If the fantasy shop hadn’t appeared.

She would still have to wash her body with the infused herbs and water.

At that time.

Daughter-

As usual, the shop owner opens the door and stands in front of them.

“There are many people who visited the fantasy shop today. I would like to express my gratitude.”

As soon as he finished speaking.

chuck-

Card holders standing in the VIP queue hold up their cards high in the air.

“… … .”

Lee Ji-soo stared blankly at the sight and thought.

‘… … Should I listen to it too?’

Already, all the clan members, including Sylvia and Alter, were holding the cards.

‘This is a bit embarrassing.’

After hesitating for a moment, she slowly showed off her cards.

Twinkle-

“Oh! Silver-Pa!”

“Whoa, look at that flash! This is awesome!”

“Wow… … When will I ever get a Silver Pass… … . I wish I could just get a Bronze Pass… … .”

Praises coming from all over.

When it felt like everyone wanted the silver-plated one.

‘I’m embarrassed…….’

Lee Ji-soo smiled quietly with a slightly blushed face.

At that time.

“Before we officially open for business today, I would like to announce one thing.”

The shop owner shouts to the crowd.

‘notification?’

“Starting today, we have a new exclusive item available in our fantasy shop. Purchases are available to Bronze-level holders only.”

Lee Ji-soo couldn’t hide her doubts.

‘Exclusive items? Are there any items in the fantasy shop that aren’t exclusive?’

All the items sold in the fantasy shop were items that did not exist in this tower.

Wasn’t the fantasy store already a ‘monopoly’ in itself?

“I think many people might be wondering about the exclusivity, so let me show you a simple example.”

The shop owner chuckled, took something out, and held it up high.

‘That’s… … .’

On the outer surface of the round oval-shaped container is the phrase ‘Baby Lotion’.

There was a somewhat strange phrase attached that said [Convenience Store★24].

At first glance, it didn’t look much different from the lotions usually sold at fantasy stores.

‘I don’t see any particular difference… … .’

At that moment, Lee Ji-soo’s eyes trembled slightly as she checked the lotion information.

‘……ah?’
