Regression Life Starting With Two Traits

chapter 5



Chapter 005 Equivalent Exchange

“So you did all this?”

[Yes.]

Gilliant.

It was his name revealed by the dragon.

He said that my return was what he did, but he said he didn’t understand the current situation.

[By the way, what kind of English is it? In the back of time, you seem to have your memories intact. Besides, it was not my will that I reincarnated next to you.]

“Isn’t it your will? Is it your magic?”

[It is different from normal magic. It is a one-time privilege given to dragons. Think about it. What will the world be like if we do this? So there are many dragons that just die.]

“You wrote it.”

[Because I had regrets and felt unfair.]

“what? What happened to us?”

[······no.]

“Right.”

[Kuhm. Of course, that’s a shame, but not really. There are other reasons.]

“What?”

[I don’t see any obligation to tell you that. and···]

The guy who was speechless looked straight at my left chest and said.

[Take it out and look at it.]

“What are you taking out?”

[That… the thing in it. Knock.]

Startle.

I got chills at the sound of his spitting and covered my chest.

“Was it like this?”

[No, the jewel. jewel!]

“jewel?”

How does he know there’s a gem here?

Surely this was where the pockets full of jewels were.

[It’s because I’m hungry.]

“Are you eating jewelry?”

[We are omnivores. Jewelry is a staple food and a delicacy. You’ve just been born, aren’t you hungry? Or, will I eat you?]

Oh, that doesn’t work.

But, you can’t just give jewels.

A good idea came to me in an instant.

Dragons are magical creatures and I am an elementalist.

It will definitely help in many ways.

Besides, having lived on the other side of the world for a long time, you should know a lot about the other side of the gate.

[What is that evil laugh?]

“Do you know what equivalent exchange is?”

[Equivalent exchange?]

I took the pouch out of my bosom and shook it in front of the guy’s nose.

Gilliant started rolling his eyes along the path of the pouch’s wobbling.

[Don’t play with it, give it to me. before biting.]

“No. If you want something, you have to pay for it.”

[sh*t. What do you want?]

As expected, he said he would eat me or bite me, but he didn’t seem to have any intention of harming me.

I don’t know why, but it didn’t seem to feed on humans.

“Help me. Then I will help you too.”

[How can I help?]

“Clearing the dungeon beyond the gate and information.”

[I’m just crazy about jewels like this…]

While he was talking, I took a piece of jewelry out of my pocket and shook it.

He looked at the jewel, then stopped talking and moved his head in pursuit of the jewel I was carrying with his mouth open.

“Am I the only one who can offer you jewels right now?”

[······sh*t. I get it. Then make a contract.]

I thought I’d bring up the contract first.

The contract process was not complicated.

As Gilliant uttered a few words, the area around his heart tingled and a notification window popped up.

[A contract has been made with Dragon Gilliant.]

[It’s done now. Give me some jewels.]

“By the way, how much can I give you? this much?”

Taking out a handful of jewels, Gilliant nodded excitedly.

[Very good. That’s enough.]

Then he stuck out his tongue and swept the jewels from my palm.

“f*ck!”

As soon as he belched the jewels down his throat, small flames came out of his mouth and sprayed black smoke into the air.

Feeling sorry for the jewels flying away as carbon dioxide, he asked Gilliant.

“Then, what can you do now?”

Shouldn’t you figure it out and use it?

[Unlike regression, I am reborn, so I have to accumulate strength. Manaya is said to be infinite since birth, but the magic that can be used is limited.]

“Still, the knowledge of magic and the knowledge of the other world are the same, aren’t they?”

[yes. And let’s go over this.]

“what?”

[The reason I decided to sign a contract with you is because I needed a place to rely on until I achieved my goal. It’s embarrassing to be next to the guy who beat me… … . Anyway, keep in mind that we are a business relationship.]

“Come to think of it, I said there was a reason for turning back time, right? Is it still a secret?”

[It’s none of your business. It’s my job.]

I was curious, but I felt like I would know it naturally someday.

Still, for the time being, it will be of great help.

The problem is what this guy looks like.

The key was how people would accept the dragon’s existence.

However, my worries were unfounded.

*

“Kya! cute! It came from the egg I saw this morning?”

This was the reaction of Min-young, who came in to come down for dinner, to face the dragon.

“huh.”

[what? Is he there too?]

“Kyaa~ Kyaewung.”

Could it be that only I can hear the dragon’s voice?

Minyoung just lifted the Giliant as if he didn’t know the exact meaning of the sound.

[Let go! Healer!]

“What are you doing? omg! Dragon?”

At that time, Soo-yeon came in through the open door and reacted when she saw the dragon Min-young was holding.

It was the same with Gillian.

[Keep! I! I! That centenary! Why are you here!]

Well, it was all because of Soo-yeon’s skills that we were able to find Gilliant’s weakness and attack it. From Gillian’s point of view, it was an exciting meeting.

But, to the ears of children, it’s just.

“Kang! Kwww!”

It was only the sound that came through.

“what? Is this kid very vigilant? Do you want me to fry it?”

Soo-yeon licked her lips at Gilliant.

[Yoo Seo-jun! What is this crazy b*tch talking about!]

I was really worried.

The world has come to this point, and it shouldn’t be a problem if you carry a baby dragon next to you.

*

After our noisy first meeting with Gilliant, we were having dinner together on the first floor.

Gilliant was poking his snout and eating the cereal we gave him.

Soo-yeon, who looked at him curiously, opened her mouth.

“I’m going to go to the market tomorrow? What about you?”

“Then let me go too. I have to deal with what I got today. Seojun, will you go with me too?”

Gotta go

I also have to deal with A-class awakening stones and gems to some extent.

I have something to live for.

However, it seemed a little difficult to go to the general market because of the jewels.

If I go to the place I want to go, I will be able to sell A-class Awakening Stones at a higher price.

“I have somewhere to go, so the two of us go.”

“okay? okay. Oh, our article appeared.”

The tablet screen Minyoung showed us was full of our articles.

▶Elementalist, close the first gate.

▶ The success of the gate challenge, nothing has been revealed yet.

▶Elementalist, relaxed while blowing hearts to the reporters.

“Oh, Seo Jun-ah, you think your popularity will increase? look at the comments uproar, very Minyoung, you must be nervous.”

“what. You and Seo-jun Yoo aren’t like that, are you?”

“Why don’t you talk like someone you don’t have in front of you?”

“By the way, how long have you two known each other?”

Soo-yeon rested her chin on her face and her eyes twinkled.

Come to think of it, even before returning, Soo-yeon asked about our relationship like this.

It was about six months since Soo-yeon joined at this point, so it was the right time to ask.

Soo-yeon was her college friend whom Min-young brought.

“Just a neighborhood childhood friend. it’s common Growing up as neighborhood friends because the family is close.”

“Oh, was it like that?”

“Don’t guess. They’re just siblings.”

“huh. we are siblings right, brother? So, will you listen to my sister? In the meantime, my younger sister should do the dishes today.”

sh*t. It was so natural that I was careless.

Caught in Seol Min-young’s headlock, I hit her arm.

“Let it go when it’s nice.”

“If you answer.”

[They are having fun.]

Gillian looked at us with pitiful eyes, but the cereal smeared on his muzzle lowered his sternness.

“Answer me quickly.”

“Oh, you can do it, if you do.”

“That’s how you’re a good brother.”

Ha, if it wasn’t for the parents’ request.

Even returning, this was unavoidable.

It’s a request from the parents of both families who passed away.

The accident happened in an instant.

The day the gate opens.

It happened before we both woke up.

Monsters poured out here and there and many people died.

In the chaotic situation, the parents thought of our safety first, and I was busy running away with the crying Min-yeong.

After that, as time passed and we gained the ability through awakening, we tried to find our separated parents, but all four of them had already passed away.

It was three years ago that I found out about that fact.

Since then, we have been relying on each other like real siblings.

[Sad story. huh? What are you doing? human.]

After the two of them moved the dishes to be washed and went up to the room, I took the Gilliant and headed to the kitchen.

“Whatever, I have to work. Now, if you wash the dishes with magic, I’ll give you five jewels. how is it? Can you do magic like this?”

His eyes widened when he took out a large jewel from his pocket.

[That bo… I’m not even a maid… Washing!]

The guy who moved as if possessed by the jewel eventually helped wash the dishes with magic.

[Kuh. You’re eating all the dragon’s face.]

*

“Then see you at home later~”

Min-young and Su-yeon walked away arm in arm.

The place we arrived at now was Jongno Alley, where Nakwon Arcade used to be.

This area was completely devastated by the monster attack, and after the reconstruction, various markets were created.

All things handled around here were items from the dungeon, and the currency was varied.

They received money, and it was possible to barter with items from the dungeon.

[Where are you going?]

“Black market.”

[Is there something like that here too?]

“know?”

[Isn’t it a place that deals with illegal goods?]

“Does that sound like that in your world too?”

[It’s a little different, but the nuance is the same.]

Entering the market, people’s eyes were focused.

That would be the case, and the dragon was sitting on my shoulder and muttering, but I couldn’t help but keep my eyes off it.

“youth! Do you have a rare creature? will you sell Lots of good stuff here! Do you know the Chungwoon Guild? We do business with them!”

“no! There are so many better things in our house! They even give you a discount! We are making a deal with the Gayeon Guild!”

I passed by merchants who solicited customers and went into a deeper alley.

Various corporate guilds became the main customers of the merchants by gaining a considerable profit from the loot obtained from the pouring monsters.

So far, they haven’t thought about going inside the gate, but if the attack on the gate is known in the future, they will be put in on a large scale.

The problem was that I had to clear the gates with good rewards first.

To do so, you will need some equipment.

with my daughter

I turned and turned the alley, and entered a dark place.

There was a coffee shop about 10 pyeong there.

When I entered the coffee shop, the male waiter who was cleaning the glass looked at me carefully and said,

“How did you get here?”

“When making a latte, the steam temperature should be set to 60-70 degrees Celsius.”

“You came to have an Americano. Please wait a moment. And pets are not allowed.”

[What bullsh*t?]

Gilliant asked as he watched the waiter go out the door behind him.

“It is a password. I heard there was a black market in your world too.”

[The password was a question like this.]

“Anyway, I’m a little bored, but I’m waiting here. Don’t hurt people.”

[Sheesh. Oh, I don’t know if there are any here, but if there are artifacts in the form of necklaces with jewels, get them.]

“why?”

[It doesn’t matter what kind of jewelry it is. You can use it as a catalyst to get inside the necklace.]

If there’s such a convenient thing, I’ll tell you sooner.

“Does it have to be a necklace?”

[The necklace has the highest chance of success.]

“okay.”

If he can fit into the collar, he’ll definitely be comfortable walking around.

“Follow me.”

At that time, the waitress who came out again opened the door and gestured to me.

After putting Gilliant down on a chair in the cafe, I followed him into a narrow staircase leading down.

“If you follow it all the way down, the guide will be waiting for you below.”

“thank you.”

Following his guidance, I went down the stairs and was greeted by a man wearing sunglasses in a neat suit.

“Welcome, sir. This is Agent L who will be with you today.”
