Pick Me Up, Infinite Gacha

Chapter 91



# 91

91. Niflheim (3)

After his speech, Eccle went down the podium.

The instructors were still taking their positions at the back of the parade ground, and the murmur of the recruits intensified. Jenna spoke up.

“What the hell is that sister talking about? Permanent residency or what?”

“Literally. It means that out of 100 people here, the top 3 will be transferred to Niflheim.”

“Then…”

“The waiting room you will be staying in will change.”

The first reason to gather cadets in Niflheim is to replenish gems.

If you receive 500 gems per person, you can get a large amount of gems close to 50,000.

The second reason was the supply and demand of talent.

The 100 people standing here are composed of prospects favored by each master.

The cost of dispatch is 500 gems per person. In their master’s opinion, the potential of these heroes was enough for 500 gems, which is a paid draw.

Niflheim provides educational services to them and proposes a change of affiliation along with a reward for those with excellent grades. And negotiate with the existing master.

‘I’m giving away some of the gems I got.’

Prices vary according to my judgment.

Minimum price is 1500 gems. If you are a top prospect, it goes up to 5000 gems.

Niflheim has millions of Gems.

This kind of spending is not even funny. This is what Isell meant by the tyranny of large corporations.

However, most masters apply even knowing this.

Even if they are not selected, the heroes who have completed their education are well worth the gems, and if they are selected, they can get a lot of gems for paid draws. It was not a losing trade for them.

‘I don’t know what Amkena will be like.’

Judging by his disposition, the probability that he knows the truth is low.

I would have sent it because I sent it.

“Start classifying jobs now.”

After Eccle exited, Elderkin came up to the podium and said.

Next to him are three men and women who appear to be lieutenants. He was holding a thick ledger in his hand.

“Warriors on the right. Thieves on the left. Total number?”

“There are 54 warriors and 46 rogues.”

the adjutant replied.

Elderkin nodded and opened his mouth.

“practice.”

The instructors behind the parade ground came forward.

They carried red and blue flags respectively.

“Come on, stand as the Instructor General said! Those who aspire to become warriors in red, and thieves in blue!”

“What else is this?”

Jenna tilted her head.

I guess I have to explain each one. I said with a wry smile.

“We’re sorting out our jobs. You use bows and daggers, so you’re thieves. Aaron and I are warriors. When you’ve finished your education, you’ll have changed jobs.”

“I remember hearing that from my older brother. If I change my job…”

“You can learn higher skills.”

Niflheim’s educational services also included a career change course.

Jenna’s expression darkened.

“Then I have to go over there. Are we breaking up here?”

“Don’t worry. We’ll see you soon.”

“That word, is it true?”

“Did you see me lying?”

“Okay. See you later.”

Jenna waved to Aaron and me and ran to the instructor holding the blue flag.

“Let’s go too. Just go to the right.”

“yes.”

The recruits were divided into two camps.

After the sorting was over, the waiting adjutants came out and conducted a personnel check.

“54 people, 46 people. A total of 100. There is nothing wrong.”

“Move.”

The blue flag moved first.

The male instructor took the prospective thieves and moved to the third floor building on the right.

Then it was us. aspiring warrior. This was led by Elderkin himself. The destination was the five-story building in the middle.

“The atmosphere is quite strange, bro.”

Aaron rubbed the back of his neck.

I laughed silently. It was a sympathy. Isn’t it like being in the army?

The recruits around him were also making dumbfounded expressions.

We passed through the halls of the central building and arrived at the large auditorium.

Elderkin looked back at us and said.

“From now on, the ability test begins. Line up in front of me. Deputy Instructor, prepare to record.”

The young adjutant took out a ledger and a feather pen.

Following the guidance of another instructor, we lined up in a long line in front of Elderkin. The face of the woman in the foreground hardened. Elderkin said.

“It is to figure out the current ability and skills of the gentlemen, and to provide education suitable for their aptitude. It’s okay not to be afraid.”

Elderkin looked up and down at the woman standing in front of him and then opened his mouth.

I can’t hear the voice. The adjutant standing next to him nodded and wrote something down in the ledger.

‘Looking at the stat window.’

Here, the recruits are classified into 4 levels according to their stats and skills.

Lower Intermediate Upper Upper Superlative.

After dividing the groups in this way, different education is conducted starting from the advanced education course.

After the examination, the people walked to the other side of the auditorium.

Aaron and I are almost at the end of the line. I crossed my arms and recalled the training process in Niflheim. The basic mechanism was devised by me. But I don’t fully know the details. After the system was set up, I didn’t really care. The second floor of Niflheim was only a small part of the operation.

“next.”

Aaron’s turn came. Aaron stood in front of Elderkin with a nervous face.

Elderkin glanced over at Aaron and opened his mouth.

‘It’s a lower class.’

Level 20.

Lesser spearmanship does not progress from level 4.

There was no change in Elderkin’s expression.

The adjutant recorded Aaron’s data in the ledger.

“next.”

Next in line was me.

Elderkin looked at me.

“…”

He tried to move his mouth, but stopped.

Elderkin’s short eyebrows crumpled.

after a while

“Excellent.”

A dull voice leaked out.

The young man’s hand holding the pen stopped.

“What are you doing?”

“Let’s take a look at the assistant instructor.”

“Okay. Let’s see. The level is 20…”

The young man opened his eyes wide.

“This is…!”

Elderkin said.

“name is?”

“Han Israt.”

“Your affiliation?”

“Isn’t it written in the ledger?”

“I’m sorry about this. Give me the ledger.”

Elderkin, who received the ledger from the adjutant, scanned the contents up and down.

“Birth grade 1. Affiliation is Taoni. Are you sure?”

I nodded.

The adjutant’s complexion hardened.

“Such a monster scab… Born 1 star.”

you’re a monster

‘If you look at a person and say that, it’s bitter.’

I clicked my tongue.

“You wait here. Fall to the side.”

Aaron was looking at me.

Elderkin said after returning the ledger to his adjutant.

“I have something else to say to you, gentlemen. I’m sorry, but please stay.”

“I will.”

I moved sideways.

Just then, there was an iron chair. decided to sit down

Because I was near the end of the line, the inspection ended right away.

The would-be warriors were escorted by their adjutant and left through the back door of the auditorium.

Except for me.

Elderkin and I were left in the auditorium.

Elderkin looked at me sitting in the chair and laughed.

“I was going to say it’s okay to be comfortable, but you look comfortable already.”

“Why did you leave me?”

“I reported something about you to the superior. He said the warden would be coming soon.”

I wasn’t surprised.

Niflheim has a communication function. It is also possible to see from a distance. Elderkin, who was looking at me in an immobilized position, said.

“Han Israt from Taoni. Are you sure?”

What you have already checked.

I didn’t even have to answer.

“The warden will be back in one minute. I’ll make sure to leave.”

Elderkin quickly walked out of the auditorium.

Suddenly, I was left alone.

‘It’s a strange feeling.’

The facilities and heroes I touched and managed actually exist and are alive and moving.

I remember. That Elderkin Brach was a born 1-star hero, and in the first battle he panicked and couldn’t do anything. Videos from that time are also stored. Looking back, it would be pretty funny. To think that the man in charge of so many instructors was trembling at first.

“…”

I put my hand on the scabbard.

‘He’s coming in openly.’

A strong presence was felt at the front door of the auditorium.

Before long, a woman in uniform appeared at the entrance of the auditorium. She leaped over a distance of several tens of meters and came to me. It was Eclat, the head of the training center.

“I received the report. Are you a Han Israt?”

Éclat looked me up and down.

Ichae came to mind in the blue eyes.

“Awesome.”

“What do you want to say?”

I opened my mouth.

“I don’t think I called you to make a recruitment offer.”

I said with my hand on the scabbard.

Eclat’s lips twisted.

“Yes. I came not to recruit.”

“For interrogation.”

When I revealed my affiliation, Elderkin’s mouth twitched strangely.

Next, Elderkin called the warden. No matter how promising I am, even a top-ranking bigwig doesn’t come out to recruit one recruiter.

“You know that.”

In an instant, Eclat’s hand disappeared.

I instinctively drew my sword, but the blade flew faster than that.

A trickle of blood flowed from his neck.

‘I can’t do that either.’

I put my sword in

The difference in specifications is too great.

“You’re excellent, but you still need time. You can’t beat me.”

“I know that much.”

“Let’s get to the point.”

Eccle said, holding the blade to my neck.

“Speak plainly. Where did you hear that information?”

“What information?”

“Are you asking because you don’t know?”

Life bloomed in Eccle’s eyes.

“How did you know Loki was gone?”

“…”

“Exactly, your Master must know. Whatever it is, it’s fine. Please tell me the source of the information and everything else you know. If you want to go back alive.”

come out like this

The information I need to fill in in the comments I gave to Amkena is that Loki is not in Niflheim. Amkena, who does not know the details, may not know the meaning, but the situation for the heroes belonging to it will be different.

Lower-level heroes might not know about it, but higher-level executives would know about my disappearance.

It was unexpected that the head of the training center knew the contents of the recruitment comments.

I looked up.

blocked ceiling. But that guy’s eyes reached everywhere in Niflheim.

lower one’s gaze Eccle was glaring at me.

“What is your true identity?”

The blade of the sword dug in slightly.

I sighed before I could speak.

‘It’s not fun.’

Also making excuses.

It’s also to be dazzled with nonsense that is different from the truth.

I’m tired of boring plays.

“Do you want to know who I am?”

“You…”

“Come out, Yurnet.”

[As directed.]

Fog swirled from one side of the auditorium, and a white shadow walked out.

Fog gathered in the shadows and formed the shape of a man.

Eccle’s eyes widened.

“…?!”

A pure white robe without decorations. Her curly white hair reached her waist.

2nd in Niflheim’s hierarchy.

Yurnet Sid got down on one knee with me.

“Meet the Master.”

“You came out late knowing that.”

“Please forgive me. I was preparing to receive it.”

I pushed the sword against my neck with my fingertips.

and said

“I am Loki.”
