The Golden Experience Point [Part 1]

Chapter 192: "Pure Heart"

In Tore Forest, specifically in its center, stands a towering World Tree.

To the west of the World Tree lies a large open square, and bare earth gazes up at the sky.

"I see, a Pure Heart huh? It seems quite murky for such a name, but if it's said to be a drop from an angel, I guess I could see it".

I was picking up the red, murky gem-like objects scattered in the square.

According to [Appraisal], these dropped items are called [Pure Hearts]. However, both the name and information about the monster that dropped them are not particularly important, trivial compared to the explanations provided by the [Appraisal].

There it was written – it supposedly had the effect of anchoring the soul to the body.

"──So I should consider it as a material for revival items, right?"

At this point, few players would have thought about the topic and realized this. The game developers would likely introduce premium items later. Players that have acquired [Appraisal] are probably very scarce. But that's just for now.

After the event ends, there will be maintenance. Premium items are likely to be implemented after that.

During the event, many players will acquire a large number of these items. If they have no immediate use for them, they may sell them, but if the buyback price is low, they will probably store them in their inventory for now. Unlike NPCs, players do not have to worry about the problem of bulky luggage.

Angels periodically attack, and various countries' knight orders and national armies can handle them. Many Pure Hearts must have been scattered across this continent. If that's the case, their rarity value might not be significant. In that case, the buyback price would be low. Players will end up purchasing appraisal items with a lot of inventory. However, if they become the raw material for valuable consumable items, it's a different story. It wouldn't be surprising if they were traded at a surprisingly high price. In that case, players may choose not to sell.

In any case, it's necessary to know the current market value.

"──Ah, I see. Maybe I should ask."

〈Speaking of Pure Heart, is it the murky gem left by those angels?〉

〈That's right, Gustav. They must have appeared in the market before, but I want to know how they were treated.〉

〈It's not anything special. There are many of them, and they are the annoying crap left by those angels.〉

If he's been suffering for a long time, that's understandable. Gustav's tone is harsh. If he were an elf, it might be different, but Gustav, being human, should not have directly suffered from angels so far. Or was one of his ancestors killed by an angel?

For me, seeing it for the first time, the appearance may be frightening, but the angels themselves have a very lovely appearance, and despite being slightly murky, this heart can be considered a beautiful gem.

〈Gustav, do you have any information about what this can be used for?〉

〈I've heard rumors that it has the effect of anchoring the soul to the body. Because of that, those shady practitioners in dark occupations like necromancers are buying them up. That's also why it's not considered a good item in common society.〉

── Is that so?

I am a player who has acquired and taken the skill [Necromancy] up to a considerable level. This was something worth noticing.

No, it's impossible.

Associating necromancy with words like 'angels', 'pure', and 'anchoring the soul' is too difficult.
