Chapter 40: Equipment



Chapter 40: Equipment

Giving up on the scammer's stall, Shinto hurried along the streets as he headed towards the other stalls in order to buy the equipment that he needed to buy.

After making a round around the marketplace, Shinto successfully bought all the needed equipment. However, looking at his inventory, he let out a sigh. "Sigh, nothing good is being sold at the stalls today... All of them are commons."

Shinto had bought a total of four equipment: Two defensive equipment, a weapon and a boot.

Looking at the equipment that he had bought, Shinto could only shake his head in disappointment. Although these were at most, decent equipment, he had hoped that there were some that would be uncommon or above, but to his dismay, he had only found the decent ones to be of common rarity.

"These will do, for now, I guess. Maybe down the line, we'll get some lucky drops when we're dungeoning again," Shinto chuckled at the thought. With Frey's luck, there was a possibility to obtain another rare drop, but he couldn't count on it. One's luck comes and goes as they please.

'Alright. Now that everything's done here, I should shoot up a whisper to Frey to see if she's done with the quests from Veira's temple.'

Opening up his friendslist, Shinto swiped through the list as he tapped on 'Frey' which was at the bottom of the list. Soon after, he sent her a whisper.

"Hey, Frey. I'm done with buying the supplies. You done with the quests yet?"

After a while of waiting, Frey replied.

"Ah, master! You're done already? Hold on for a second! I'm just about to finish with this annoying quest."

"Huh? Annoying quest? What quest are you doing right now?"

"Er... Some delivery quest or something, I've got no idea. The person that gave me this quest talked too confusingly, so I didn't catch what he actually wanted me to do. Though, the quest information said I had to deliver something to someone and then I get the quest rewards."

"A delivery quest? Shouldn't be that hard to do."

"Well... When you don't know how to get to the place you're delivering to... It becomes quite a problem."

"Huh? Don't they give you the directions?"

"The directions kind of was lost along with the person's words aha..."

"...You," Shinto sighed. "Oh well. Where do you have to go for the delivery quest?"

"Some kind of tavern, I think the name is 'Tavern Parmic'?"

"The tavern? It should be in the town's centre."

"The town's centre?! That far?!"

"It's not far from the temple, where are you right now?"

"...Somewhere by the outskirts of the east entrance of town..."

"How did you get there?"

"Aha... Let's not talk about that."

"Alright then... Since the town's centre is quite far from the spot we were supposed to meet up at, do you want me to just go and meet up with you there?"

"Yeah, sounds good! I'll head there in just a jiffy."

"Right. I'll wait inside the tavern, send me a whisper when you're there."

"Will do!"

Closing his friendslist, Shinto quickly made his way over towards the town's centre. But before that, he opened up his inventory as he took out the Silver Iron Platings and Sturdy Leather Boots, quickly equipping it on himself.

...

The town's centre was crowded as usual. Many players looking for party members to dungeon with and the like. Shouts protruded through the area, however, Shinto ignored them all.

Fastening his pace, Shinto made his way through the crowd of people. While he did so, his eyes scrutinized the surrounding area as he looked for the tavern. If he remembered correctly, the tavern would be right beside the bank, turning towards the direction of the bank, he was greeted by an unfamiliar sight.

"Huh?" Upon a glance at the building in front of him, his eyes narrowed towards the sign on top of the building, 'Lavida's Hotel'. "I could have sworn the tavern was here..." Maybe he remembered wrong, he didn't felt anything weird when he was here yesterday, though it could be because he wasn't focused on the surrounding area.

"I'll just ask someone where the tavern is..." Not wanting to waste any time, Shinto scrutinized the area for an NPC to talk to. Thankfully, there was a lot around, so it wasn't that hard to find one.

Walking up to a random NPC, he began talking to them. "Excuse me, could I ask something?"

"Huh? Is there something I can do for you?" The man that he approached, replied.

"Yeah, I just wanted to know the directions to the tavern."

"Oh? The tavern? Man... It's been a while since someone asked for directions to that place."

"...?" A pique of curiosity appeared in Shinto's eyes.

"You can find the tavern, or well what was used to be called a tavern over by the alleyway there," the man pointed over towards a narrow alleyway beside a few buildings.

"Huh? What used to be called a tavern?" Shinto asked.

"Ah, well you see, now that the tavern is in quite a secluded area, not many people know of the place, so it's on ends meet," the man sighed. "You must be an old customer right? Well, I hope you won't be too disappointed when you see the tavern again."

"...I see. But since the tavern is in a secluded place, where do the people find for cheap accommodations?"

"Well, besides the tavern, there really isn't any place for accommodations other than the hotel over there. After the hotel replaced the tavern's business, many flocked over there instead. Though, I've got no idea why they would. The hotel charges you so expensively per night there..."

"Really?" He asked in a confused manner. Since this was a newbie town, shouldn't the prices for accommodations be cheap? If what he heard from the man was true, then the newbies had to spend a large sum of gold in order rest well at the accommodation?

'Huh... Weird. What's up with expensive stuff in this town lately? Firstly that scammer's stall and now a hotel?' Maybe he's overthinking. The prices of the hotel could have been overexaggerated by the man.

"Yeah, really, it's damn expensive! If you don't believe me, check out the place for yourself!" The man reaffirmed himself.

"...I see. Thank you for the information."

"No problem, it's nice to hear someone knowing about the tavern," The man smiled as he continued on with his life.

'Sigh... Has newbies life improved that much to the point they could afford expensive stuff?' Maybe there was a change in the economy where the flow of gold earned from quest increased by a large sum when doing the quest? 'I'll have to ask Frey about this later.'

'Anyways... I should just head to the tavern now and wait for Frey.'
