Legendary Broken Player - VRMMORPG

Chapter 49: - It Appeared Before Him

Leon pedaled his bike with a feeling of victory, having just managed to anger Bob and gain a free 20 thousand dollars from him. It was an incredible amount of money, and he still couldn't believe it had happened so easily. It felt as if he had robbed Bob right from his pocket. He wondered how long it would take Bob to gather that money back, but he knew that Bob was wealthy and worked just because he wanted to.

For Leon, in the past, such an amount of money would have been incredibly difficult to accumulate. However, now he was a Divine Champion! He could gather money more easily now. He smiled widely, truly feeling that his life was gradually becoming better since he received the blessings.

Leon still felt a sense of satisfaction as he recalled Bob's sweaty face, forced to hand over the money. It was truly astonishing that his card now held about 40 thousand dollars. That was a huge amount! He could even buy another capsule device if he wanted, but of course, he wouldn't do that now. He could gather even more money and share the Immortal Legacy experiences with his sister.

Leon's laughter echoed through the street as he pedaled his bicycle, causing several people to glance in his direction.

"What's wrong with him?" one person asked.

"A lot of young people are going crazy these days. I guess he's one of them," another commented, shaking their head.

Realizing that he had laughed too loudly, Leon pedaled even harder towards home. He needed to go to the city center to go shopping later, so he planned to park his bicycle at home and then order a taxi to his destination.

Precisely an hour later, when he arrived, he made his way to the plaza and entered the nearest store, searching for household necessities. He thought nothing of spending the money and grabbed a few groceries and various household items. It was the first thing that came to his mind because he and Lily always cooked at home to save expenses.

But then, Leon regretted buying groceries first, as he intended to visit the electronics store for a new phone and laptop. He finally left his groceries with the store and roamed around the plaza with enthusiasm.

He was starting to enjoy the luxury, and he knew this was just the beginning. He could gain even more after this!

He made his way to a smartphone shop and purchased a new one there, not thinking twice because his old phone had been malfunctioning for a while. Besides, he considered this a gift from his previous manager, Bob. He laughed at the thought.

After that, he also bought a new laptop to make studying for college easier. But then he suddenly remembered he had skipped classes for several days. However, the responsibility didn't bother him as he continued exploring the stores around the plaza.

"Do I need to buy some new clothes too, I guess?" he wondered aloud.

He paused for a brief moment, debating internally if he was spending too much.

"No!" he shook his head. "I got this money from Bob, and I've also come up with ways to earn this money in my own way. So, a little bit of fun isn't going to hurt."

He then ventured to the nearby department store and went around picking out clothes. His hands shook as he saw the price tags on the garments, some of which were marked at two hundred dollars.

He came out with several tote bags in his hand, feeling satisfied with his purchases.

How much had he spent? No, it was still below the amount he had gotten from Bob. He didn't consider it wasteful; it was free money. He grinned, reassuring himself.

Next time, he planned to bring his sister and perhaps his uncle for a special dinner or to buy them gifts. Various pleasant thoughts filled Leon's mind.

"Time to go home," he declared, stepping out of the shop.

He took a taxi back, clearly now carrying many more shopping bags than when he had left.

When he arrived home, the sun was already setting. But still, Lily was nowhere to be seen.

"Hm... It's unusual for Lily to be out at this time," he muttered to himself.

He quickly put away the things he had purchased, storing some in the refrigerator and the rest in the cupboard.

He then tried to contact Lily after setting up his new phone, feeling relieved when she replied that she was on her way home.

"I bought food at home, come back soon," he texted back.

With a slight smile, he turned towards his bedroom.

"Alright... Time to get back to mining," he declared, eager to spend his playtime for the day.

***

Broken had to wait another night to mine Moonstones. Therefore, he focused once again on leveling up his Mining Technique, which seemed to require more time if he wanted to push it to level 5. But he kept trying, not backing down even a little. He had to make sure he leveled up the skill to level 5 so he could gain the most benefit from everything.

The other three clearly noticed a change in him, who seemed more enthusiastic that day in hunting, even when the others were already resting from exhaustion. He was still wandering around the forest, hunting alongside Polly.

The thought of obtaining more materials to sell completely occupied his mind. But then, he realized he needed to keep a balance between monster hunting and mining because he needed to keep the Transcendence Blessing progressing.

"So, what did you do outside? Having fun?" PussyCat asked when they started resting by the campfire as night fell.

"He should have spent the money on some fun, huh? Hahaha. Drinking? Partying? You should invite me sometime, Broken. I'll take you out for some real fun, hahaha," RememberMe chimed in.

Broken just smiled and nodded slowly. "Just bought a few things I've wanted for a long time, new phone, new clothes, some good food," he replied with a smile.

"Why waste money on material things when you can have a good time at a club?" RememberMe teased.

Forev got annoyed and slapped the back of RememberMe's head. "Do you think everyone enjoys partying like you do?" he scolded.

RememberMe laughed, "Hey, it's just the normal way to celebrate being an adult."

As midnight approached, Broken resumed his mining activities, this time more optimistic and enthusiastic. The sensation after spending some money, the euphoria, still lingered in his chest.

He kept striking his pickaxe continuously, and his movements became more perfect as the skill reached level 4. The time he needed to mine a single ore also became shorter.

After several attempts, the same failure notifications he often received kept appearing.

"One more time!" he encouraged himself.

And then, what he had been anticipating for the past few weeks finally happened!

Suddenly, it appeared before him.

[You obtained 1 low-quality Moonstone.]

His eyes widened in shock, and his hands trembled as he picked up the object and held it tightly. The stone was in the form of a lump of rock with a shiny part that seemed to reflect the moonlight perfectly.

"This is the Moonstone! I mined it! I did it!" he exclaimed loudly, filled with elation.
