Avoid Yandere Constellation

[The Goddess of Fate asks why you suddenly mentioned my mom.]

The Constellation reacts indifferently.

Perhaps because she doesn’t have a real mother who gave birth to her, my diss didn’t have much effect.

Well… I can cross the line a bit since she doesn’t have a mother.

For some reason, I felt a sense of sympathy and looked up at the sky.

[The Goddess of Fate wonders why you’re looking at her like that.]

As I looked up at the sky, Kage turned to me with a crazy look on her face.

“Master, what’s wrong? Did you suddenly go crazy?”

“It’s nothing. Anyway, can you hide your ears and tail?”

“Okay, then let’s get to work.”

I explained to Kage what we were going to do.

Kage hid her ears and tail at my request.

“Now, let’s go to the Adventurer’s Market. You follow me from a distance.”

At my words, Kage nodded and followed me from behind, walking quickly and quietly.

Adventurer’s Market.

This is where adventurers can buy various items they need, such as weapons, armor, potions, and more. In simple terms, it’s a shop.

I looked around for a spot to set up.

-Selling potions!!! Cheaper than the usual price!!!

-Selling transfer scrolls!!! Only 1 gold!!!

-Selling mithril weapons!!!

When I was playing the game, I didn’t notice, but in reality, there were people trying to scam others.

They were so smooth with their words.

If I could get a transfer scroll that’s hard for even nobles to obtain, I’d buy it for 1 gold right now.

One gold is not a small amount of money.

In Korean currency, it’s 100,000 won. But compared to the value of a transfer scroll, it’s just a drop in the bucket.

In reality, a platinum coin worth 100,000 won in the game would be hard to obtain, and here, someone is selling it for 1 gold.

It’s so obvious that it’s a scam, but I guess there are always a few fools around.

I ignored the scammers and moved to an empty spot.

After setting up my mat, I took out all the bottles I had prepared.

[The Goddess of Fate glares at the holy water you made.]

So what if you glare at it?

Of course, if the Constellation wanted to, she could easily destroy the holy water in front of me, but I won’t let that happen.

If the Constellation were to descend to the ground, there would be no point in having a protagonist in the game.

Ignoring the Constellation’s message, I finished my preparations. At that moment, a man who looked like he was about to start a business turned his head towards me.

“Hmm… Are you selling potions?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

At my nod, he made a sound of ‘hmm’ and gave me a smirk that would make anyone angry.

If I weren’t in a position to hide my identity, I would have punched him in the face.

“It doesn’t look like a proper potion. Can you really do business with this?”

…What’s this old man’s problem?

Not only did he suddenly mock me, but he also ignored the potion I had made with all my heart.

I wanted to reveal my identity as Kaine, make him kneel, and do a grand jeté, but I held back because I knew it wouldn’t be worth it.

The man next to me, seeing that I wasn’t responding, started doing his own thing again.

After finishing my preparations, I shouted as loudly as I could.

“Here! Selling divine potions that enhance abilities!”

My voice was drowned out by the loud voices of the professional merchants. The man next to me smirked and shook his head.

“Looks like you’re a beginner in business.”

He shouted so loudly that it hurt my ears.

“Selling beginner and intermediate potions!!!!! The first two customers will get a free beginner potion!!!!”

He emphasized the word “free,” and nearby adventurers rushed towards him.

“Yes, I’ll give one to each of you right now.”

The two customers who came first were covered in wounds. They drank half of the potion given to them and applied the other half to their wounds. Their wounds slowly melted away.

Seeing this, the people nearby mistakenly believed that the quality of the potions was good.

Wow… Is this a coincidence? Someone else has the same idea as me?

The two customers who were the first to be injured were most likely the man’s acquaintances or hired people.

No, it’s 100%.

That’s because the free potions he gave out weren’t real. They were just fake potions that looked the part.

I can’t help but think that because the two customers’ wounds didn’t heal like they were regenerating, but rather like they were being erased.

In the game, potions were supposed to heal by regenerating the wounds, not melting them away.

That’s how it was explained in the game, right?

Of course, most people in the game wouldn’t know this unless they were potion experts.

[The Goddess of Fate tells you to quickly educate those scammers with the holy water you made!!!]

I was already planning to do that.

I turned my gaze to the side for a moment. Even though the two customers who received the free potions were different, the others were being properly healed.

So, apart from those two, the rest are real, I guess.

As I kept looking, I caught the eye of the man next to me. He looked at me and smirked, raising one corner of his mouth as if to say, ‘This is how you do business, rookie.’

Well, it’s cute that he’s trying to scam people.

Now, I turned my attention to Kage, who had been watching the situation from a distance.

I nodded to her, and she approached me like an innocent child.

“Do you want to try drinking it?”

“Hmm… But my mom told me not to drink things like this.”

Wow… The experience of living in the slums for a year is showing! If I didn’t know better, I would have been fooled by her innocent act.

Impressed by her acting, I offered her the potion I had made.

“It’s okay. Try it. I’ll give it to you for free.”

“Wow! Thank you.”

Kage bowed at a right angle like an innocent child and gulped down the potion I gave her.

At the same time, I…

Game Settings Skill: Volume Control, Effect Quality Adjustment, ☜ Color Settings, Map View, Inventory, Cash Shop…

I opened the Effect Quality Adjustment.

[500 points have been consumed.]

I pushed aside the message window that appeared and activated the skill without hesitation.

The small divinity in Kage’s body, which she had gained from drinking my high-quality potion, suddenly grew to cover the surrounding area.

-Boom!!!

[The Goddess of Fate is surprised by the current situation.]

[The Goddess of Fate asks you to explain how this is possible.]

As expected, the Effect Quality Adjustment.

At first, I thought it would only apply to me.

But that wasn’t the case. When I used this setting in the game, it not only affected me but also had an effect on other characters.

Now that I think about it, this skill is completely overpowered.

To be honest, it might not be very useful for truly strong individuals, but for someone like me, it’s the best skill I could ask for.

In fact, with this skill, I can even survive by bluffing.

Kage looked at her body with a ‘What’s happening?’ expression.

To deceive the enemy, you must first deceive your allies. It’s not a saying for nothing.

I only told her to drink the potion I gave her, without explaining the rest, to make her acting more convincing.

The people wandering around were startled by the divine aura surrounding Kage.

As I expected, the huge aura drew attention. Everyone turned their heads towards me.

Okay, now’s my chance!

“Here! Selling divine potions that greatly enhance abilities! Only 2 silver!”

At my voice, people started gathering around me.

2 silver is equivalent to 20,000 won in Korean currency. Usually, ordinary potions are priced at 20,000 won.

However, the potion I showed them didn’t look like it was worth just 2 silver. It was so powerful that it could be mistaken for an elixir.

Of course, that’s just on the surface.

In reality, I used my skill to make it look like it had a small divinity, nothing more, nothing less.

Of course, you might think it’s a scam.

But I’m just using the placebo effect to do a legitimate(?) business!!

Yes, I’m not scamming anyone.

As I justified myself in my mind, the old man next to me was so frustrated that he bit his lower lip until it bled.

His expression was so satisfying that it made my heart feel refreshed.

[The Goddess of Fate says that her heart is refreshed.]

No wonder even the Constellation, who usually doesn’t take my side, would say something like that.

As I danced with joy in my heart, the old man next to me, trying to deny reality, pointed at me and shouted angrily.

“This is ridiculous! It’s a scam!”

At his words, the people’s attention shifted to him. The merchant, still having more to say, spat out his words.

“Think about it, everyone. Is it possible for a potion that greatly enhances physical abilities with a large divinity to be sold for only 2 silver?”

The adventurers nodded in agreement with the merchant’s words. He smirked, thinking that the situation was turning in his favor.

“So, it’s possible that the girl and the merchant are in cahoots. After all, it’s not possible for a single potion to produce such a large divinity, right?”

His desperate attempts to refute the situation are cute.

Well, from his perspective, it’s understandable that he’s upset. My legitimate(?) business has taken away all his customers.

In a way, I’ve ruined his business.

But what can I do? That’s just how the world works.

“Then why don’t you try it yourself?”

He didn’t expect me to speak up like this and seemed a bit flustered.

The adventurers and customers found the situation interesting and turned their attention to the merchant.

He thought that if he remained silent, he would only embarrass himself further, so he snatched the potion from me and gulped it down.

Effect Quality Adjustment activated!!

-Boom!!

A golden divinity suddenly enveloped the merchant’s body. He stared at his divine appearance in disbelief, his eyes wide open in shock.

“Is, is this real?”

No, it’s fake.

The merchant examined his body.

“I feel like my body is getting warmer…”

Hmm? Is that so? You’re weak to alcohol, huh?

Realizing that my potion was real(?), the merchant became speechless.

Seeing this, the people tried to buy the potions before they were all sold out.

The merchant next to me looked at me with envious eyes.

This is how you do business, rookie.
