The Ruined Death Knight

Chapter 81 - New Path Of Runes

*Ting Ting

"Leave already! Leave already!"

Closing the door of the shop while carrying a bag in one of these hands, Danzel turned around to give the shop the last look.

"Tch, such an annoying bird." Cursing the damn overdramatic crow, he took a glance inside the bag.

'At least I bought something rather neat to pass some time.

Daniel didn't only buy the [Sun Timer] from the old owner but decided to get some other things that the old owner recommend.

Though most recommendations that he made were awkward for me to use such as various potions.

Some gave you rich nutrients that helped with the overuse of healing magic or some that increased your strength for a limited time.

They were many more with the stamina potion being the most expensive one.

But I simply shook in every potion that the old owner showed me.

Danzell wasn't sure why, but his rejection seemed to offend the owner, which turned to watch the owner present his collection of potions to me with excess enthusiasm.

However, I could only have a wry grin on my face.

It wasn't that I was not interested in potions' effects themselves, but the reason I rejected to buy any potions was for one reason alone.

I was a fricking Undead!

With my pure and shiny bones alone drinking the potions was impossible.

It will after all just go past my mouth and fall directly to my ribs bag inside my armor!

That would be another kind of a mess.

Nonetheless, do things coated two gold coins each!

I might have the money to buy this entire stock, but I was nowhere ready to start and thrown money to the ground.

Though that didn't stop me from wasting my money where else.

Inside the bag were four different items that had coated me a whole of 8p gold coins.

With one of them being [Sun Timer], the three were the following.

[Blank book]

[Knowledge for every Caster]

[Mana Pen]

The two items were self-explanatory.

The book of every caster that was recommended by the owner had various information of magic such as the law, the types, and arts of magic.

It coated my total of thirty-five gold coins and the blank book ten gold coins.

Danzel's first thought was that this old man was trying to scam some coins out of this wallet. But he sold me those books at the market price.

At least here in the Berum kingdom.

Since the methods of creating paper haven't been developed much here, the books target more of a high-end buyer such as nobles and great mages.

As for the [Mana Pen], It was overall handy to have.

With the use of some mana of yours, the pan could create just the amount of a substance similar to ink.

The pen itself was sturdy with a blue gem in this tip, with the low mana cost it had I decided to buy it.

Though 20 gold coins were extremely expensive for what it was.

The gold lies in the hideout took enough space for me to care of now.

"Now it will be easier to keep track of notes..." he said with a grin on this face.

'Keeping everything in check in my mind was already a pain in the*s, but hopefully, this book will help me with that.'

Closing the bag, he turned around walking in the direction of the Ouru Fire Smith was.

"It has been five hours already, Gerak should have delivered the weapons by now."

After a thirty-minute walk, he could already see the sign of Geraks place.

"Why is that res hair here again?" Looking at Serras coming out of the shop and leaving with a group of the four adventures that I had seen this morning.

'So they were a party of five...' cancel said as he saw the group of five leave together.

"He sure likes to pester this old dwarf."

Moving inside the workshop, I saw Gerak standing there with an annoyed expression on this face.

"Gerak, I am back"

"Didn't I tell you to leave already-! Oh, it's you..." 

Seeing Gerak lowering this hammer that he was ready to throw at me. I couldn't help but have an evil grin on my face.

'He must be pissed.' Daniel thought to himself.

"How did it went Gerak? Was there a problem with those guys?"

"Sigh...there is nothing to worry about. They followed the contract." Gerak showed a small smile on this bearded face.

If someone else were to watch him smile they would have thought that he was relieved that everything went well.

But I knew better.

This wasn't that kind of smile.

It was the one that he would always make when he would be scamming a newbie adventure and sell this overpriced crap on this floor.

'He probably got the item he wanted...' Though I didn't know the worth of the item he got, it sure must be expensive for him to grin so viciously.'

"Good, does that mean they got more stuff for me?"

Showing me an even more vicious grin, Gerak tossed the [Ring of Spatial Storage] which I watched.

"Yeah, and more than before."

"Huh? What do you mean more?" Danzel said subconsciously.

The dwarf simply shrugged this shoulder off from my surprise.

"Well, can you blame them? You finished a whole unit's equipment in what? four days?"

Staring blankly in the [Ring of Spatial Storage] I mumbled to myself.

"How did they manage to fit everything..."

I thought it was full the first time...

"Sigh...there can only be a few more words in that ring. Anyway, I will take my leave Gerak." Putting the ring on he turned around towards the door.

"Sure, take your time with this patch," Gerak said while walking towards this smithy on the down floor.

****

*Tick

"Ugh.. finally somewhere quite." Closing the hidden door, Danzel fell the moment he saw this bed in front of him.

"Dammit! They even gave me half more than they were before! Isn´t that abuse!" Danzel said annoyed.

"Sigh...Maybe I will be able to finish all those if I work the whole damn week."

Bringing the bag from the [Handy Caster's] shop closer to me, I put all the stuff that I got on the table.

"At least now I wouldn't be lost in time..." Put the [Sun Timer] to a place that was easy to see.

"I guess it's time..."

"So my sub-class only gives me Intelligence and Agility as stats...not bad." I nodded satisfied by my attribute increase.

But what got me most interested was the next Window in front of me.
