If you have never earned money yourself, then you have no idea what it is worth. Do not carelessly offer money."
Lee Hyun had never voiced it, but he was jealous of them.
Rich college kids!
They were families which he envied.
Lee Hyun spent his childhood delivering newspapers, he worked hard at his part time jobs delivering milk, something rich kids would never experience.
-Mom, please give me some pocket money, last month you only gave me 50 million won.
-I'm putting together a trip to go overseas soon.
-Mom have you forgotten, I want to go to France. Tell your secretary to make it 100 million won. We don’t want to eat only packed dinners after all.
That’s how the conversations worked for the rich in Lee Hyun’s head.
Either the successor of a rich company or the inheritance from a rich family and they never knew the hard work that was involved.
Like that a heroes' personality was that of an ordinary scum, complicated relationships with women, and being poor as well.
Of course, they too were human and must have suffered once or twice.
With bad parental relationships or a couple of wishes that had not come true, different degrees of anguish occur.
But without that anguish, few people would survive in the world
Like a sudden twist in a good daytime drama, the show is then well received by the public.
Eventually the sons and daughters of rich families can never be hated
If you anger the public and swear at them, all you have to do is show them money, and their forgiveness will show.
Until the end of the lecture, Seoyoon was in deep thoughts.
‘Looks like I really don’t know about the value of money’
While Lee Hyun lived diligently, she never seriously thought about it.
Just as Lee Hyun imagined, she had lots of real estates, trust funds, funds, stocks, and many others, therefore she was never inhabited when it came to money.
Seoyoon wrote her thoughts on the piece of paper while reflecting on her actions.
-I will work and earn the money, will you travel together with me then?
Lee Hyun didn’t expect this reaction.
‘It’s winter vacation soon’
Less than three weeks were left till the end of the semester.
“How much will you be able to earn?”
I never tried it so I still.... How much do you think I need to gather?
Seoyoon’s eyes were sparkling as she was expecting him to answer.
She did not understand society and being unfamiliar with the world she would receive the bitter taste of the world
Lee Hyun, emphasized on an ordinary travel, and replied
“If we’re talking about the sea it will definitely be in the South or Jeju island. In that case transportation will take at least ₩450000 while food should be about ₩800000. Are we gonna stay there?”
Even if they ate sashimi every meal, it was highly unlikely it would cost ₩800000, regardless Seoyoon nodded. Since they couldn’t just spend their time just traveling there and back. She wanted to spend the night talking while drinking wine.
“The hotel room would probably cost us ₩50000000, we’d have to grab two rooms. Also, if we were to eat Cider(Sprite) and eggs on the train as well as get some souvenirs, we would need at least ₩5000000 or ₩6000000.
Lee Hyun suggested an amount that was absolutely unmanageable.
‘A part time job over the winter break will not be enough to collect that amount’
Even though the said amount was ridiculous, Seoyoon nodded anyways.
Lee Hyun had said, in order to make a promise. “You have to earn the money by yourself through hard labor, otherwise it doesn’t count.”
-Alright.

Weed spent the last 20 days making nature sculptures in the mountains of Dekarte.
“I’ve spent a long time just focused on sculpting.”
The quest didn’t let him hunt, he could only create sculptures, now he was running short on time.
Alone in this environment he could create many great sculptures, however he couldn’t create classic or masterpiece sculptures without taking his time and working at a relaxed pace.
“A sculpture made of Dew!”
Weed made sculptures early in the morning.
He collected the basic materials needed for the sculpture.
While squatting down he ripped up the grass to collect the dew off of them.
With his ever growing nature affinity, he could make a much wider selection of nature based sculptures.
Weed made a water elemental, this was his first masterpiece made from nature sculpting.
Masterpiece! A water elemental made with Dew
Creation and nature was a means to improve the level of sculptures, so he only collected clear dew.
In the trees and on the ground, mixed with the scent of flowers, he was actively playing with the different methods of creating the water elemental. It was a lively expression and deserved high praise.
Of the sculptures within the Versailles Continent, very few depict nature!
However, because he was an undead sculptor his work suffered and he was going crazy.
Artistic value: 898
Special options: People who see the water elemental made of dew will have their health and mana regeneration increased by 12% for one day.
-Reduces mana needed to summon water elementals.
-Will satisfy your thirst for a long time.
Does not overlap with other sculptures.
Number of Completed Masterpieces: 89
-Sculpting proficiency has increased
-Dexterity proficiency has increased.
-Nature Sculpting proficiency has increased
-Reputation has increased by 263.
-Stamina has increased by 1.
-Intelligence has increased by 1.
-Art has risen by 8.
-Creating a masterpiece has increased your nature affinity by 9. Increasing nature affinity will improve the scope of nature sculptures you can carve.
Due to creating a pure sculpture, the power of undead is purified and reduced by 6.
Weed was committed to working on his sculptures.
He gained proficiency with animals and plants, particularly with the plants.
While in his undead form, he worked hard. As a side effect of being an undead he could work without rest.
However, as good as that was, nature sculptures had purification properties.
“Divine power reduces the power of the undead.”
One good thing was that he didn’t have to give as much money to the Freya Religion’s Pope Candidate Alveron.
“Unfortunately, this sculpture is a masterpiece.”
He had collected Dew to make a water elemental sculpture.
Owing to the natural heat granted by the reflected sunlight, it would soon be ruined and disappear.
But it was too wasteful to leave the Sculpture in its place at Daesan in Tebkart.
There was no raw material cost, but it had been very difficult, collecting the dew had taken a lot of time
”Creating a natural masterpiece for the first time, I’m not able to leave the sculpture.”
Free sculpture!
Weed decided to write on the water elemental sculpture.
By releasing the water elemental, it could be summoned by writing, there will also be an increase in the degree of affinity with nature.
Elementals also help with growth, though currently useless, after a while, by managing a few, one or two could be formed on the ground as food to eat.
Weed uses his skill on the sculpture.
“Create Elemental!”
