Angelo sigh, waving the status panel away as he watches Shaira sort all the drop items. After their rather anti-climactic battle, all of them leveled up, with him and Muning leveling up twice. He glanced at the dead tired aid companion lying on Marco's lap. Well he can't really blame the little guy, after all he used his skill and casted it continuously, all the while he flew around attracting all the monsters' attention away from them.

"Ok, I already sorted it and I've got to say that we got quite a lot during this battle"

Indeed, they did get a lot. The cash alone already reached at 115,576 pesos. They also got 8 bottles of blank ink, 2 half-a-meter black polyester fabric,10 iron blocks, 6 stone blocks, a set of tonfas, a low grade heart of golem, 8 heart of golem fragments, 3 sheet of clear plastic, 3 black slime core and 1 black elastic fabric.

The money they easily split and they each got 28,894 pesos. They also got two bottles each of blank ink.

"Hey is it ok if I got more of the iron blocks? I need it for a new item." Marco requested, as he gazed at them with puppy eyes. Ken and Shaira also looked at him, seemingly wanting to say something.

"If it's alright with you guys, may I get all the stone blocks? Also Ken and I needed the fabric, so is it ok if we get them?" asked Shaira, her eyes gazing imploringly at him.

"Sure, no problem" Angelo answered as he eyed the set of tonfas.

"Don't worry, I know that without Muning's help we wouldn't get these many. So it's only fair that you'll get the tonfas, you can also have the rest of the clear plastic and slime core as well."

"Yeah, besides you also used a baton right? These tonfas is right up your alley" Marco added as he handed the tonfas to him.

"Hmm…thanks" Angelo received the tonfas and used <<Analyze>> on them.

<< Black steel tonfa

A blunt weapon made of steel designed for blocking and striking.

>>

He knew it…he really need to level up his analyze skill.

Angelo sighed as he put the tonfas away in his inventory.

"By the way, what are we going to do about this Heart of golem?"

"Well, obviously we will split the fragments among us…hmm…how about we just sell this one?" Marco answered as he turns the black metal cube in his hand.

"What's the use of this anyway?"

"Well as far as I know, this can be sold to Artificers" Ken reached out his hand to Marco, who with raised eyebrow handed the heart of golem to him.

"Then I suggest we should check things out first" Angelo leaned away from where he was and grabbed Muning out of Marco's lap.

"And how do we do that?" Shaira asked skeptically. She watched him pinch Muning's cheeks making the aid companion awake.

"Nyaa~?"

"Muning, mainframe"

Angelo's eye blur for a second and Muning's body pixelates forming into a screen.

"Woah! Where did Muning go?" exclaimed Marco as he watched Muning disappears onto thin air. The others then saw Angelo tap something on thin air.

After waiting for the progress bar to finish, Angelo quickly search information about the Heart of golem.

"Ah…Rey? What are you doing?"

Angelo looked at Marco with raised eyebrows. "Can't you see what I'm doing?"

"No…that is why I'm asking you"

"Oh yeah…I forgot about the privacy setting."

Angelo tap the gear icon in the upper right corner of the screen and quickly changed the display output settings to [ Party members ].

A white screen appears before the others with the word Muning on top, as well as what it seems to be a search results.

"So you can access internet here? How did you do that?" Shaira asked as they come close to Angelo.

"Well sort of. The players have their own private server so to speak, that only they can access with an aid companion. The higher the grade, the higher the access." Angelo answered as he taps one of the links.

"So that's why they are sought after. Having one, you can access all information related to instances. Knowledge is power after all." Ken mumbles to himself as he watched him access the site.

[ Heart of Golem

Depending on what kind of golem you acquire them from, their materials differ but their purpose is the same. It serves as the internal memory and essential part of the construct. It can be used in many ways especially in building an automaton.

The Heart of golem also differs in quality based on its original construct's level. But it can be also be upgraded by fusing ten Heart of golem of the same grade. One can also acquire one when one fused ten fragments of it.

"Ok, now that we know what it is. How much can we get this thing for?" Shaira asked impatiently as she read the rest of the article.

Angelo exited the link and quickly type 'Heart of golem market price', immediately the Oracles website is on top of the search list followed by a lot of link inquiries and private selling and buying links.

The link redirected to Oracles' shop menu and Angelo immediately type 'Low grade heart of golem' on the search bar.

"Well it seems it did fetch quite a tidy sum. The price seems to range from 200,000 to 200,300 pesos"

"So how much do we sell it for?" asked Marco as he tried to tap against the screen but failed to do so.

"Hmmm…how about we price it in the mid-range?" asked Shaira as she gazed at them for their opinions.

"Let's price it at 200,150 then" Ken answered as he neared towards Angelo and urged him to browse the shop more.

"Where would we sell it though? I'd imagine that having them sold here online, the money will take a while." asked Marco as he turned to Shaira for a plan.

"Well I'd imagine not…right, why don't we decide that once we get to the safe zone." She answered as she put her part of the loot in her inventory.

Angelo then exited the site and closed the mainframe as Muning once again materialized. Ken turned towards him and handed him the Heart of golem.

"Why are you handing me this?"

"For safekeeping..."

Angelo stared at Ken's back, a bit bewildered as he watched him talk to Shaira. He stared at him for a moment, the heart of golem still in hand, before shaking his head and putting the item in his inventory.
