Chapitre 33: Such a nice person! Part2

Both Alex and Rey watched as the perfect silhouette of the mysterious person disappeared into the forest.

On their right, there was still a huge commotion because of the field boss, but Liam had avoided all of that and ran away in the other direction.

"Hmm. I really misjudged that person." Alex muttered under her breath. "He is not that bad."

"He He. You should trust people more sis." Rey chuckled but he shut up immediately after sensing the deathly glare that came his way.

The two of them squabbled about for a bit when they finally turned around and noticed Mia. She had an odd expression on her face even for her and her cheeks were bright red.

In fact, her entire face and neck region was completely flushed.

"Huh? What happened?" Alex was confused. She then remembered that Liam had whispered something in her ear. But what could he have possibly said that could make Mia react like this?

"What did he say?" She asked.

Mia was usually a very calm and composed girl and seldom showed any emotions, unlike Alex whose emotions were always in her sleeves.

In their high school, she was even revered as the ice goddess by everyone, but now she was showing an expression like this?

"Hey, what happened?" Alex worriedly asked.

"That guy just now said something weird." Mia answered her in a daze. "He said that if we… inside the game..."

Meanwhile, Rey was already trying to gather other party members so that they could run the dungeon a few more times.

He was rather thick in these matters. So he didn't even notice the two women talking about something in hushed voices and weird expressions.

He randomly selected a couple of decent damage dealers and headed back, when the three of them stopped in their tracks.

Bam! Bang! Bang!

Loud explosive noises echoed at the entrance of the dungeon.

"What the hell? Another field boss spawned?" One of the new recruits muttered in confusion.

"Looks like it. Should we get more people? Woah! The beginning of this game is so sick!"

Rey, on the other hand, gulped. Unlike the two new recruits, he was rather familiar with the silhouette of this so-called bear.

"Shhh! You guys. That's my sister. Don't call her a bear if you love your life." He nervously muttered under his breath and dashed forward. "Sis, what happened?"

He had only left for like a couple of minutes. What could have possibly happened in that short time to make his hot tempered sister burst out like a volcano?

Rey approached the danger zone very cautiously as if there was indeed an actual bear near him. "What happened, sis? Can you calm down a bit?"

"It's fine, Alex. Leave it be." Even Mia muttered.

However, Alex was clearly not in a mood to answer him or Mia. She just kept slamming against all the trees that she could get her hands on. "I AM GOING TO KILL HIM! I AM GOING TO FUCKING KILL HIM!"

"Huh? Who does she want to kill?" Rey looked at Mia, who looked away and didn't answer him.

After a while, Alex eventually calmed down and the group of them then went back into the dungeon to do a few more rounds.

"Wait till I get my hands on that pervert again! Fucking loser! Hmph!" Several curse words flew from the fiery hot woman's lips as she continued to slaughter the ravens in the dungeon.

She was so furious that her efficiency was off the charts and the two new recruits couldn't help but feel as if they had just joined a top-notch team.

Meanwhile, the person responsible for all of this…

Liam casually sped through the forest as he was familiar with this entire territory like the back of his palm.

Now that he had finished dealing with Niria and had obtained quite a bit of wealth, weapons, recipes, and skills, he wanted to consolidate everything and prepare the necessary items before heading to the next place.

He also needed to level up some of his skills and make sure that this overall build is balanced. Since he was playing a no class, he was always at the risk of messing up this delicate equilibrium.

As for the things that he had talked about with Mia, he didn't really place much importance on them. He had openly told her about the fastest way to become stronger.

And if she agreed, it would indeed make things a lot easier, but Liam knew plenty of other alternatives. He didn't care either way.

Regardless of whether it was the easy route or the hard route, he knew he was going to succeed in the end.

Chapitre 34: Crouching Tigers and Hidden Dragons Part1

After crossing the forest in between, Liam once again returned back to the town near the novice village, Basla town. He casually strolled in and headed straight to the auction house.

However, he didn't go in just yet and sat down on an empty bench outside the auction house in a relatively quiet alleyway.

"Time to take a look at all the skills." He hummed and summoned out his status screen.

"Not bad." Liam chuckled and he then opened his inventory to take out the rest of his skill books.

[Holy heal], [Tame], [Ice shard], [Lightning bolt], [Fire ball], [Pickpocket], [Unlock], [Stealth]

"Heh." Liam grinned. "That Niria really saved me a lot of trouble!"

The game had only barely begun and he already had a plethora of skill books in his possession. If anyone else knew this they would probably cry into their pillows, but to Liam, this wasn't anything big.

He might have a huge collection of skill books right now but most of them are only basic skills.

Their true power and abilities would only be revealed after a lot of effort and Liam was more focused on that part as his life and death depended on it. Those would lead him to true power and strength.

He took a deep breath and started learning all the skills one by one.

His body alternatingly flashed with a bright light and then faded, this process repeating several times until he was done learning all the skills. Well, all except one.

Liam wasn't exactly able to learn [Holy Heal].

This skill was absolutely useless for him as he had affinities to the demonic and the undead energy and therefore lacked any sort of affinity to the divine energy.

But that didn't mean that there wasn't any healing spell that Liam could learn.

There were a few nature healing spells which he could learn, but he currently did not possess those skill books and hence he didn't dwell on it too much.

"Hmmm. Alright, time to get back to it." Liam cracked his neck left and right and then strolled into the auction house.

"Please place your items here, sir." A sweet voice rang out and a translucent screen similar to the status screen popped out in front of him as he entered the building.

Liam quickly tossed in the skill book and then scrolled down the available items.

He had plenty of gold and silver with him, so he wasn't planning on selling anything this time, rather he was planning on making certain bulk purchases.

[Ding. Congratulations! Dire wolf pelts x 50 have been purchased!]

[Ding. Congratulations! Wind wolf pelts x 50 have been purchased!]

[Ding. Congratulations! Dire wolf pelts x 150 have been purchased!]

[Ding. Congratulations! Wind wolf pelts x 70 have been purchased!]

[Ding. Congratulations! Dire wolf pelts x 500 have been purchased!]

[Ding. Congratulations! Wind wolf pelts x 500 have been purchased!]

…

[Ding. Congratulations! Stone flower stalks x 20 have been purchased!]

[Ding. Congratulations! Mellora stalks X 65 have been purchased!]

[Ding. Congratulations! Rig weed stalks x 40 have been purchased!]

[Ding. Congratulations! Spiky nine flower stalks X 15 have been purchased!]

…

While Liam hurriedly began purchasing every single herb he could find and also all kinds of wolf pelts, a huge commotion started in front of the auction house building.

"Hey someone is buying everything even if it is at a ridiculous price!"

"Woah! You are correct. I put mine at silver a piece and still got sold. Holy hell!"

"Let's sell off everything now. Some money bags has obviously decided to empty out the auction house."

"Yes! Yes!"

Some players started rapidly putting everything in their inventory slots into the auction house. However, a veteran player watched their actions and scoffed.

"You guys are idiots. If someone is buying something in bulk, it means that he is planning to sell them back at an even higher price and make a killing."
