Bab 204: A Second Skill Stone?

After wrapping up the Flood Dragon matter, Rita took advantage of her *Disguise!* skill and paid a visit to Brooks. Lucky for her, Brooks liked working night shifts, and he was still making fries at that hour; otherwise, finding him could've been a hassle.

Rita shelled out a hefty 30-gold fee to buy a single-use of Brooks' skill *We're Not Familiar, but That's Okay.* Since every empty skill stone issued by the Special Affairs Bureau was tracked, any reduction in her monthly submission would lead them to cut her supply in the following month, as they'd recently begun tightening control over the distribution of empty skill stones. However, she still had a stash of empty stones she'd acquired in Lania Kaia, traded for boots, that were yet to be used.
