"Your Hunter #73,825. Your rank is #457 currently at this moment. Congratulations, it's not everyday a hunter makes it on their first season to the top 500."
"Thanks, is there a ranking for hunters in their first seasons recorded."
"Yes, and before you ask... You are rank #829 in the top 1,000 of hunters scores in their first season. Don't be discouraged by this, this is actually an amazing achievement to reach the top thousand for any hunter at all."
"Don't forget to mention your current rank of this season is #457 out of more than 50,000."
"Thanks I guess, I guess I was hoping for more and then what I got-"
"Not everybody starts at the top. Anyways, if you want your Sunstrikes please go to the mercenary outpost and they will give you your rewards according to how much you made. But just to let you know, this is a job from the mercenary outpost after all."
"Yeah I am familiar about the limits."
...
"Your current count is 45,144,000, transferred to a Sunstrike score of approximately 5,000,000. But the job has a limitation of 1,000 sunstrikes per application per person. So you're only attainable to 1,000 Sunstrikes of the 5,000,000 The city is willing to pay."
"Dividing 1,000 into 60 days... It's basically the cost of doing a low paying level 15 job for 2 months."
"Correct, the city is willing on pay that much and refuses to buy more mana cores at that price. You would have to sell them to the market at their actual price for everything else."
Stolen novel; please report.
"What is the market price at other cities..."
"About 50,000 level 1 mana cores for 1 Sunstrike."
"I had hunted grass horned wolves and received one sunstrike each from them before. Why is it-"
"Did your employer buy it off of you?"
"Yes, but-"
"Then that explains it, level 5 mana cores sold into the market and not to your employer usually cost about 1 Sunstrike for every 1,000 of them."
"You have to remember, whether it is this mercenary outpost or others. The employer pays a large proportion to the mercenaries as the market is never kind. Money mercenaries would not be able to live off of the market alone."
"So...our mercenary outpost can buy all your level 1-5 mana cores at market price. Which we calculated earlier to be 4,513 Sunstrikes, this is a lot higher than usual since the proportion of level 5 mana cores you have is higher then normal. But not uncommon for those that specialize in traps, as catching level 5 White rabbits is much more difficult as they are quicker and faster to run than level 1 white rabbits."
"So... Let me borrow that calculator. Thanks... So, I made about 92 Sunstrikes a day for everything total. Or in other words a level 40 to 45 job everyday."
"Congratulations in advance, there's not many mercenaries who can make this amount in the hunting season. Most hunters make a quarter of what you made in total."
"That's why higher level hunters don't bother with this job, The pay is only great in the beginning, but going over the limit and the city it's no longer willing to pay anymore. Having to be forced to sell the rest to the market. So, are you going to sell your mana cores here?"
"Sigh... Might as well."
"Excellent, then please hold format as I... Done! Here is your payment of 5,513 Sunstrikes. See you next time!"
"Yeah..."
...
"..."
'So what now. I feel like we should take a break from everything. Leave time to admire myself and you to do whatever you do.'
"That... Sounds not bad. We deserve a break after all of that. You go ahead and admire yourself while I go shopping. I'll call you again when I feel like we need to go out for more jobs."
"..."
'bye.'
"Bye."
