Farming is OP Chapter 62 Gambling addict

Ti kept on going, and soon enough, another month passed. Each day made feel like the shoe was about to drop, and soone was going to show up and take this amazing life away from . That was why I tried so hard, even now that I said I was going to take it easy, I was still stubbornly grinding levels like my life and happiness depended on it. That’s why I hit level fifty again.

I had one level twenty-five skill and four level fifty skills left to buy, if I worked really hard this year. I should be able to get them all. I was split between two decisions, magical field and magical specialization. Creating magified crops would give more experience than growing normal crops, but it was a gamble. I could go months, perhaps even years, before I get as lucky as I did with the magified crops I made so far.

Magical specialization was a safety net, though. Our family had a stepmom who could heal, but she definitely wouldn’t be going into dungeons with us. So, having another healer(myself) in dungeons just in case the worst happened was sothing I was worried about. My wives were getting antsy being cooped up in our ho, and all of them wanted to go clear the dungeon again.

Sophia’s party was one of the few that could kill the goblin king. Since they were wiped out, leaving her the sole survivor, it ant it wasn’t being cleared as often. Everyone stronger either moved on or wouldn’t risk it because they were by themselves. It ant that the likelihood of the goblin king breaking with the dungeon was higher until he was killed again. I picked magical specialization and felt my mind suddenly know how to heal from ranged. It would also be easier for to learn new healing spells, even though it wasn’t the perfect magic for , it was a hundred percent more useful than the support magic that suited my class more.

I would need to test it, but from what I heard. The odd feeling would be heavily lessened as well, so it wouldn’t feel like I was farting out of my hand to heal… I had checked my stats since sleeping with Olivia, but it was always nice to have a refresher.

Stats

Strength: 6.64

Perception: 6.23

Endurance: 6.52

Charm: 6.83

Intellect: 6.55

Agility: 6.99

Luck: 5.05

My stats were dramatically higher, but I was also getting thirty percent more out of each stat. It ant I was getting almost two bonus stats on top of my actual stats. As if it waited for to think about her, Sophia ca out of the dungeon. She looked happy as she ca out with a smile on her face, holding a sack in front of her like she had won a prize. I asked out of curiosity.

“What you got there?” Smiling, she told . “I found a copper vein with about ten bars worth of material. That’s about ten gold in a single day!” I thought about the similar size chunk of silver my wives pulled out a few weeks ago and could only smile along with her. That silver upgraded my axe to the next rarity, plus got them so well-deserved spending money for everyone else.

I asked. “Oh, so what do you plan on buying?” “I think I got a good chance at winning it big this ti!” I got a better look at her. The armor she wore was mostly battered down and on its last legs, the weapon she used wasn’t upgradable and was a normal iron weapon, and she was thinner than the last ti I saw her.

She was spiralling without a team to keep her going. Her class was amazing. If she had a good team, the biggest problem she had was her gambling right now, as she would keep squandering all of her gold away until she was penniless instead of snowballing it into better gear to level faster so she could earn more. She would be stuck at the common ranks for far longer than she should be, possibly never evolving her class in her career before a permanent injury retired her, and that’s one of the better outcos.

No, we’d need to have an intervention for her. She needed to quit gambling if she wanted her life to turn out the way she actually wanted. I sighed as I told her. “Well… Good luck, I guess.” I’d have to talk to my wives about what to do with her. She was too important not to save her from herself. Waiting until dinner that night, we began to brainstorm a solution.

An intervention was brought up by soone else; it wasn’t the only suggestion. Sarah spoke with a mouthful of food as she off-handedly ntioned. “We should bet with her.” Everyone looked confused as she continued. “Do you know what an indentured servant is?” Still not understanding, I answered. “Isn’t it just slavery with extra steps?”

She chuckled before saying. “Well, yes and no. Slaves do exist, but humans can’t be legal slaves in this country. The workaround is indentured servitude. You get a person heavily indebted to you and then work them until they pay it back.” She had a sad smile on her face as she explained. “I’ve seen this play out multiple tis before. No matter what we do, she’ll never quit. We can try all we want, but unless there’s a legal contract keeping her from gambling by shocking her, she’ll never stop.”

I didn’t like the idea of owning another person, but it was either that. Or watch her throw her life away. Sighing out of frustration, I asked the big question. “Do you really think we can convince her to go along with this?”
