Artlan carried him to the dimensional merchants where they found Bebe yawning. Artlan stood in front of Bebe and dropped Junhyuk.
Junhyuk tried to stand up on his leg while Artlan talked to Bebe.
"Do you have potions? Give me one."
"What about the money?"
Artlan looked at Junhyuk, and Junhyuk stepped forward.
"Check to see how much money I have."
Bebe put the plate out, and Junhyuk placed his hand on it.
It said 3800G.
Junhyuk was surprised by the number, and Bebe took out a potion. It was a pure, pink liquid that looked like it tasted sweet.
"Are you going to buy it?"
"Give it to me."
Bebe put the plate out again, and Junhyuk placed his hand on it. The number decreased by 500G. There was still 3300G.
Artlan looked at Junhyuk buying the potion and said:
"Wait here. I will come back."
After he spoke, Junhyuk watched Artlan go out and opened the potion bottle with his teeth. A fresh scent wafted out, and Junhyuk decided to drink it at once.
He paid a lot to treat his arm and leg, so he should drink it. Junhyuk swallowed the fresh-scented and sweet-colored potion all at once, and his eyes widened.
"Gak!"
It had the unbelievable taste of poison. He wanted to bite his own tongue, but instead he wiped it with his hands. Bebe laughed at him.
"If it's good for your body, it will taste bitter."
Junhyuk tried to blame Bebe for the bitter taste when he realized his arm and leg had already been healed. He was a little surprised and swung his arm. Bebe looked at him and said:
"Isn't it effective?"
Junhyuk agreed with him, but he did not want to taste that again.
"I shouldn't get hurt again."
Bebe laughed hard.
"Everyone vows not to get hurt," Bebe clasped his huge hands and continued: "But vows won't work. If you don't want to get hurt, you need more equipment."
Junhyuk had been curious about something.
"This time I have more money than I expected. Do you know what happened?"
"Why do you want to know? It's a good thing you got more money."
"They won't take the money away from me later?"
"Of course not! The hosts aren't senseless," Bebe spoke and looked around. He did not want anyone to listen to their conversation and continued: "For a novice, you earned a lot during the Hanta. Usually, a novice would earn about 2500 for about five heroes."
"Is that right?"
Junhyuk was curious about it as well. Then, Bebe clapped and continued:
"Are you... did you just become an expert?"
"What?"
"Did you activate another power?"
Junhyuk thought about what Artlan told him before coming here. Artlan had thought he did.
"I'm not sure."
"Ho. Isn't this surprising?! You already became an expert!"
"What's an expert?"
Bebe explained to him calmly:
"People who activated their first power are beginners, so they are called novices. A person who activates his second power is a specialist, so he is called an expert; a person who activates his third power is called a champion; and a person who activates his ultimate power is called a hero."
"So, people in different levels earn different amounts of money?"
"That's right! A novice who helped out killing a hero earns 500G. An expert could earn four times more, so 2000G at once. It depends on your contribution."
Bebe flipped through a book and continued speaking:
"If you become a champion, you could earn 5000G helping out against one hero. Of course, there are times when champions can kill heroes. Then, you can earn items."
He already knew about the item prices. Basic items cost thousands of gold, but he could see himself earning more money when he became a champion.
Bebe smiled and said:
"You are already an expert, so I should treat you as a VIP."
"What's a VIP?"
JunHyuk was surprised, and Bebe smiled at him.
"VIPs get a 5% discount with every purchase."
That was good to know.
"Sure, but can an expert become a VIP?"
"Of course!" Bebe opened his book wide and said: "Champions are VVIPs, and heroes are VVVIPs."
