Really F2P? (3)

Lee Gyeongbok did not start the minigame right away. Normally, he would have just tried it first and then commented, but now he was doing an advertising broadcast.

"We don't really need an explanation of the game mechanics. What matters more is how much profit you can make through negotiation."

As he looked over, Park Juho lightly adjusted his glasses and spoke.

"If you succeed at negotiating by chance in the mobile version, you get a 1% discount for each speech skill level. Since the max level is 20, mobile users can get up to 20% off."

"Oh? 20% isn't bad."

"But only if your speech skill is maxed out. Capsule users like us get a different application. Since you do it yourself, the discount rate is even better."

"How big is the difference?"

"This minigame has stages. Each stage you clear gives you 3%, up to a max of 20 stages, so you can get up to a 60% discount in theory."

"Sixty? That's a threefold difference!"

Lee Gyeongbok's eyes widened. But soon, as if puzzled, his eyes darted around.

"Wait, then capsule users don't need to raise their skill levels?"

"No, capsule users' speech level is applied differently. Do you see the hourglass above? For every speech level, the time limit increases by 10 seconds."

"Ah... So the penalty decreases instead."

He currently had 10 seconds, and since he hadn't started as a trader, his speech skill was at level 1.

- You have to find everything in 10 seconds?

- At low levels, it's better to just try the mobile version lol

- Don't trust me! Trust probability!

- Nope, it's actually better to try early on

- For real, lol. Once speech is around level 5 you end up just doing mobile

- At low levels, you finish quickly anyway, but as your level goes up, you spend more time and stop playing lol

- In terms of efficiency, just spinning the probability is easier lol

Most viewers gave negative feedback about the minigame. Lee Gyeongbok checked their responses quickly and spoke up.

"Ah, this is definitely a problem."

At his comment, Park Juho opened his eyes wide. He didn't know what was being said in the chat, but the remark made no sense.

'What's he trying to say...?'

Wasn't this supposed to be an advertising stream?

A problem, all of a sudden? That comment itself could be the problem.

"It kind of feels like capsules users get too many handouts here. I think this needs a bit of a nerf."

Lee Gyeongbok continued nonchalantly.

Neither Park Juho nor the viewers had expected this, so the chat filled with question marks.

But he didn't explain any further and just pressed the 'Start Negotiation' button.

Soon, the viewers could see for themselves what he meant.

― Lol, what is he even clicking!?

― Hyung? I missed it!

― It's over in the blink of an eye, huh?

― How could you catch that all at once?

― What's up with that speed?!

It took Lee Gyeongbok less than five seconds to find the wrong part. The moment the illustration changed, he pointed out the wrong spot, and the discount rate figure started spinning wildly.

So in less than a minute—

- Crazy lol already at stage 15 lol

― WA! 45% discount!

― Manager's totally stunned lololol

― Wow lol, even Godple didn't realize until he started

Lee Gyeongbok breezed through stage 15. Park Juho, staring blankly, snapped out of it and clapped his hands.

"Ah! I was supposed to explain something at stage 10, but missed the timing. If you raise your speech level, you can use the negotiation skill from stage 10 to briefly stop the timer and get extra time..."

He rattled off his explanation quickly and then shook his head.

"No, well. Just for your information."

Viewers laughed at his reaction. Lee Gyeongbok furrowed his brow.

"Why isn't stage 16 showing up?"

Strangely, the illustration hadn't changed.

― What? Is it bugged?

― Did Godple break it because he cleared it too fast? lololol

― Honestly, god-sense lol

― Who'd really clear it this fast? lololol

-5252, did you break the system with a perfect run?!

While viewers speculated a system bug, the owner of the trading post came running, ashen-faced.

"That's enough, enough! Your insight is more than clear!"

He wiped cold sweat and held out his hand.

"50%, I'll give you a 50% discount, so how about settling here?"

At the sudden offer, Lee Gyeongbok blinked and glanced at Park Juho.

"Ahem, if you fail the negotiation, all the discounts you've obtained are void. It's like a safety net. At stage 15, you get an additional 5% and can safely end or choose to risk more."

Thanks to his explanation, both Lee Gyeongbok and the viewers understood the situation.

― Just take the 50% and leave, he's saying I guess?

― Looks like that safety net's for the NPC, not the player?

― For real, lol, why would Godple stop here?

― Our hyung can't resist nitpicking, can he?

With viewers piling on, Lee Gyeongbok joked as he looked at Park Juho.

"Hey, even if I'm bad at math, this is way too easy."

"What are you talking about?"

"Who would settle for a 50% discount when you could get 60%?"

With that, he declined the offer and kept going.

As a result—

[You have earned the 'Master Negotiator' achievement!]

Clearing all 20 stages, he also unlocked an achievement.

― Wow lol, 1-try all-clear lol

― What? That's just Godple as always!

― Negotiation (physical skill)

― But isn't stage 20 just crazy hard?

― For real lol, how'd you spot a scratch on that sword scabbard? lololol

― I thought it was something on my monitor lololol

― So who's the merchant now?

Viewers admired Lee Gyeongbok as expected, but those who knew the game had a different reaction.

― Damn, the whales must be pissed lol

― Ugh... I spent 30,000 won to clear stage 20, frick

― Can you even clear this with spending?

― Usually you get speech to around level 15 and buy hint items lol

― The top spenders just buy all the answers with hint items lololol

― Do whales even have a sense of value?

Many people bought items and cleared it that way to get the achievement.

"Wow, you actually finished it. My best was only stage 8."

Watching nearby, Park Juho couldn't help but exclaim. Lee Gyeongbok laughed and answered.

"Really? I guess I'll handle negotiations from now on then. Just tell me what to buy."

"Hmm, that's probably best. If so, you basically get a 60% discount as a passive... I'll need to recalculate our plans."

As Park Juho said that and rolled his eyes, the viewers were pleased.

-5252, boss! Stop bullying the manager!

-???: Go do it again

― As expected of a Black Company, exploiting clients as well as employees lol

― Wow lol, so it's like permanent 60% off?

― This is what they call Black Friday, right?

― No! It's Black Purple Day!

― Ah lol, all the trading posts are doomed lol

* * *

Having finished buying trade goods, the two headed to the pier. It was finally time to set sail in earnest.

"Since we had a lot of funds left, I fully stocked both crew and supplies."

The discount was even better than he'd expected, so Park Juho could use his extra funds.

"Okay. Then let's set sail."

"Whenever you're ready."

As fleet captain, Lee Gyeongbok selected to depart. The screen went black, and he lost control.

"Huh? There's a cutscene?"

On the shifted screen, the crew moved busily. They were loading supplies onto the sailing ship.

The protagonist stood at the bow, looking out at the sea. Soon, a sturdy crewman approached him.

"Boatswain, what is it?"

"Yes, Captain. All preparations for departure are complete!"

At the boatswain's report, the protagonist nodded. The boatswain carefully watched him and spoke.

"Where shall we set our first course?"

"That—"

The protagonist pulled a bottle containing a letter from his pocket. Before he even finished speaking, the screen turned gray, and the location changed.

"It's the principal's office? Looks like a flashback."

It was when he met alone with Admiral Alfonso. The protagonist looked down at the bottle Alfonso handed over, then accepted it.

"Even if you want to look for Horatio, you wouldn't know where to start."

Alfonso spoke calmly, taking a deep breath.

"I too don't know where that bottle drifted in from. But I do know where it was found."

"... Could you tell me where that is?"

"There may or may not be other clues."

"It's our only clue."

The protagonist's firm answer seemed to strengthen Alfonso's resolve; he nodded.

"Crimson Coast. That bottle was found at Crimson Coast."

"That place...!"

When the protagonist reacted with surprise, alfonso smiled bitterly.

"They say you're the top student, so I see you haven't forgotten what you've learned."

"Isn't that one of the forbidden areas we were taught to avoid?"

"Yes. And do you know why?"

"We learned it's a habitat for sea monsters. I heard even the navy doesn't go there easily, so pirates use it as a temporary refuge."

At his reply, alfonso's expression grew complicated.

- Lol, that facial expression is so detailed

- Proud he remembered + worried since it's dangerous

- Honestly, putting aside personal reasons, being top student makes him a true talent lol

- Definitely not just a standard mobile game cutscene lol

As viewers were immersed, alfonso nodded again.

"Exactly. That's why headquarters sends the fleet there regularly for patrols and hunts. We found that bottle thanks to those efforts..."

He trailed off and pressed his hat further down.

"I understand your eagerness. But prepare thoroughly and don't rush."

The shadow from his hat hid his eyes.

"... If you too disappear into the sea, how could I ever face Horatio?"

With those words, the flashback ended. Lee Gyeongbok felt control returning to him.

"Ah, the cutscene ends there."

Now the scene was the sea in front of the harbor, with Lee Gyeongbok and Park Juho on the deck.

- Looks like you go to Crimson Coast next?

- Seems you need to prepare before going, rather than heading straight for it

- For real, definitely setting up for a naval battle

- Either sea monsters, or you'll fight pirates lol

While viewers organized the info from the cutscene, Park Juho walked over.

"Let's make our first stop at a nearby trade port, yeah? Selling specialty goods there will net a decent profit, which we can use to get equipment."

"Yeah, that sounds good. So just steer, then?"

"You can do that, but apparently navigation is easier if you use touch controls to plot a course."

"Really?"

Lee Gyeongbok followed his friend's advice. After switching the interface and tapping on a nearby port, a route showed up like a navigation system.

"Oh? What's this? The rudder turns by itself!"

As the ship sailed, the helm turned on its own. The viewers laughed.

― Wow, that cutscene was intense

― Did the ship just become a ghost ship!

― Healing time, oN!

-???: So now what?

― Go fishing now!

― Let's have sashimi!

-???: Forget it, just tell us about your first love!

― Do a best-friends talk show!

― Not a good idea—too revealing

There was some free time, so chat requests started pouring in. Lee Gyeongbok looked up after checking the chat.

"What's up?"

"It's just... Isn't the speed supposed to be constant when you use touch controls? But the speed is changing."

Park Juho tilted his head too, following his gaze. At the end of their line of sight, the sail was fluttering in the wind.

"... You can feel that?"

"Can't you?"

"My mistake for asking. But it's useful to know."

Park Juho shook his head and explained.

"Constant speed only applies when you're logged in via mobile. In capsule mode like now, using touch controls makes you affected by the environment. Setting a route only guarantees the minimum speed."

"Oh? So you can go even faster?"

The answer appeared in the chat before either could reply.

- If you catch good wind, you get a speed buff lol

- But that's basically up to luck

- Yeah, wind direction changes all the time

- Hyung! Just think of it as a random speed bonus!

- Our guy really is all about speed, huh?

- No Korean can resist going faster lol

Lee Gyeongbok thought it over, then grabbed the helm.

"If I just match the direction, we'll get there quickly, right?"

"Match the direction?"

Park Juho and the viewers were surprised. Match the ever-changing wind direction?

But Lee Gyeongbok answered confidently.

"This is Turtlerock. This ship's specialty is maneuverability."

With that, he spun the wheel smartly. The ship rocked as it turned, the sails snapping taut as they caught the wind and picked up speed.

-????

― You're really navigating by wind direction?

― Wow, never imagined someone would sail like that!

― Uh, he's basically wind-surfing with a sailing ship?

Even for Lee Gyeongbok, is that possible?

It didn't take long for doubt to turn into certainty.

"Wow, this is actually fun!"

Lee Gyeongbok steered with a bright grin. Amazingly, their speed never dipped for even a moment.

― Sea surface drifting!

― Now it's suddenly a racing game lol

― Lol, he switched genres again!

― Initial P, is that you? lol

-???: Deja Vu!

-???: Gas! Gas! Gas!

― Insert Eurobeat soundtrack

― Drifting is crazy enough, but how does he even read the wind?

― Is he secretly changing the wind?

― Are you the wind god or something?

-???: The southeast wind blows...

Viewers went wild in the chat. Even as he spun the helm, Lee Gyeongbok never stopped reading messages.

"See the sails? They're huge—wouldn't it be weird not to notice? If it flaps, just turn the helm!"

Both Park Juho and the viewers chuckled wryly at his reply.

"You're probably the only one who can react to the sail's flutter like that."

― He just says what he wants! The funisher!

― For real lol, only someone with Godple's reaction time and spatial sense could do that!

― After the zero-to-hundred bus, we now have a zero-to-hundred sailing ship!

― Ah! Too fast!

― If this were real life, everyone on board would be seasick and knocked out lol

― Hyung! They told you to sail your own way, but not to this degree!

With that, he continued catching the wind and speeding along. Suddenly, a message appeared in front of Lee Gyeongbok and Park Juho.

[You have exited the 'Safe Waters'!]

It was a warning message in red. Almost on cue, pirate ships appeared around them to explain why.

― Whoa? What's going on?

― Wow, I thought they were other players for a second

― They're NPC pirates lol

― Safe Waters? What's that?

― So there are separate combat zones?

The viewers typed quickly in surprise. Lee Gyeongbok calmly replied.

"Up to a certain distance from shore, combat won't trigger. I must have drifted out while focusing on catching the wind."

But even with his explanation, the viewers couldn't relax.

Wasn't it worse if all those pirate ships attacked—even for Lee Gyeongbok?

"Hm, well, seems like there's no problem."

Unlike the viewers, Park Juho looked relieved. He tapped to close the guide he'd been reading.

"Apparently, for newbies like us with low fame, we're immune to first attacks."

"Oh."

Lee Gyeongbok nodded. No wonder his divine sense hadn't picked up any threat.

'So system-wise, assaults just don't happen.'

Since the pirate ships couldn't target him, there was no threat to sense.

"And the same goes if a pirate player shows up."

"Huh? Even players?"

"In PVP, you can only attack others if their ship tier is the same or higher. Seems like a system to prevent griefing."

"Oh... Makes sense. If high-levels could wreak havoc, no one would want to play."

Both Lee Gyeongbok and the viewers agreed with the continuing explanation.

― If PVP lets high-levels stomp newbies, the game dies lol

― Yeah, I'd quit right away if that happened lol

― Except for massive clan wars, 1:1 is crossing the line!

― This place protects newbies well lol

― Just head back to Safe Waters then?

Lee Gyeongbok smiled as he read the chat.

"Very useful info."

"It was easy to find..."

Park Juho didn't finish his sentence. The ship suddenly lurched as Lee Gyeongbok spun the wheel.

Struggling to steady himself, Park Juho stared at him, shocked.

― Hyung? Where are you going!

― No, wait;;; Safe Waters is the opposite way!

― What... what's he hinting at?!

― No way, right?!

As viewers and Park Juho stared in confusion, Lee Gyeongbok grinned.

"We're immune to first attacks, right?"

He turned toward the pirate ships.

"So, we get first attack no matter what."

He sensed no threat at all from the pirates. If anything, he felt positive—an enticing sensation.

'That sweet scent...'

To Lee Gyeongbok, it was a familiar feeling—the tingle of discovering items.

But since Park Juho and the viewers didn't know this, they were flustered.

"Hey, that's a three-star sailing ship!"

Lee Gyeongbok was headed for the biggest pirate ship.

"It's fine. Just simple addition."

As Park Juho sputtered, he held up his fingers.

"My ship is two stars, yours is one star. Total is three stars, so we're good."

With that, the chat exploded.

-2+1=3. That's just common sense!

― Lol, technically correct!

― Two stars plus one star equals three stars!?

― Sheesh lol, never thought of it that way

― Heard this, now if I draw five one-stars, I'm calling it a five-star

― Isn't this just a god-tier calculation?

-???: Your IQ is 150, my IQ is 150. Together that's an IQ of 300 for planning!

― But for Godple, he's unique grade, so he can probably pull it off

The viewers weren't worried.

If anyone would attempt this, it was Lee Gyeongbok.

― Rob the trade post, now rob pirates, too!

― Hyung, aren't you supposed to be the navy?

― Ah lol, it's for justice!

-???: Justice! There's justice, isn't there!

― Not just any navy, but an ex-Black Company CEO, I'm telling you

― Black Navy, so intense

Thus began the debut match of the Purple Fleet.
