บท 44: Everything is ready
''Who was that man?''
''How did you get all those items? ''
As soon as they were outside the store, Raydon and Belicia asked at the same time.
After some hesitation, Belicia decided to speak up first after noticing Raydon's lack of response. ''He is a member of one of the mysterious organizations I previously mentioned. I'm not sure of his identity or position within the organization, but generally, people refer to them as "shadows." ''
''Shadows? '' Radon inquired.
''Yes. They are named that way for no particular reason. All members of high-level organizations are referred to as shadows. The reason they are called shadows is that they can appear unexpectedly in unexpected places, just like before,'' Belicia explained.
Evidently, she didn't anticipate running into that man in such a manner either.
Raydon was also surprised to meet such a powerful person in this world so quickly. However, he did not give this matter much thought.
''Oh, what was your question? '' Raydon asked.
Belicia came to a halt, looked at Raydon's face for a few seconds, and then resumed her walk. ''Nevermind. I believe you have a title that makes you quite powerful. Assume I never asked.''
Belicia believed Raydon's success in his first match was due to his title. She gave up asking because she believed that if she persisted in asking about the match's events any longer, Raydon would also divulge information about his title.
After all, item holders must keep their title's attributes secret.
Raydon shrugged at those words. He had no intention of telling what had happened anyway. Even if he did, his abilities had nothing to do with his title. On the contrary, his title was a curse for him right now.
''So what kind of skill are you looking for? '' Belicia asked.
Normally, she would choose Raydon's skill-set herself, but after witnessing his first choice of skill was an investigative-type, she understood that Raydon had not lived his entire life totally as an idiot. She also accepted that Raydon was a born genius after hearing about his significant victory in his first match.
Raydon gave this question some serious thought. He had discovered an investigative-type item that would suffice for the time being.
Pauldron had a movement-type skill. He could change it if he could find something better, but he wasn't in a hurry. As a weapon, he had the great sword from Gary and a short sword from Wingmans, but he wouldn't use the great sword however he pleased, and the short sword had a debuff skill rather than an attack skill.
In short, he now had gloves as a defense type, a pauldron as a movement type, and a bracelet as an investigative type.
''I think I need an attack-type skill as well as a control-type skill. ''
Raydon mentioned the skills he needs to complete his skill set. He needed almost every kind of skill because he was playing alone. He skipped the healing-type skill because he already has high stamina and a passive HP regeneration skill from his title.
The purpose of the attack-type skill was clear. The control-type, on the other hand, was to neutralize the enemy or catch them off guard when necessary.
'A concealment-type skill could work for me, but I guess I'll have to rely on my own methods for the time being.' Raydon was initially disappointed that he could only use five skills, but his disappointment was short-lived. Until he found a way to increase his skill capacity, he could use the experience he had from his previous life to make up for his skill deficiencies.
Belicia wasn't sure what kind of skills Raydon already had, but she didn't question his decision either.
''Well, I know a few places where you can find what you're looking for,'' Belicia said, as they started to circle the stalls once more.
—
Raydon finally got what he wanted after a few hours of walking around with Belicia's assistance.
The first of these was a brown vambrace.
[Vambrace]
-Grade: Green
-Quality: Good
-Skill: Hook
launches a rope hook in the direction of the target. The hook will coil up and drag the first target it comes across back to the user. Rope toughness and range are affected by the wearer's stamina stat.
-Mana cost: 1
-Duration: 10 seconds.
-Cooldown: 20 seconds.
The other is a pair of dark red boots.
[Boots]
-Grade: Green
-Quality: Good
-Skill: Fire Kick
When kicking, it uses the friction in the air to ignite a flame that intensifies over time. The duration of the flames varies depending on the user's stamina stat.
-Mana cost: 2
-Duration: 20 seconds.
-Cooldown: 2 minutes.
'These two are very useful. It is also quite expensive. ' Raydon thought.
He spent 4,000 gold for Vambrace and 4,500 gold for boots. It was also difficult to find, especially stamina-supported items. He also bought some arrows for his crossbow.
There were a little less than 14,000 gold coins left. In fact, he expected to get a blue-grade or an outstanding quality item, but he knew he wouldn't be able to find these items unless he went to the VIP area and participated in the auction. He also learned from Belicia that there were significant price differences between green-grade and blue-grade items, implying that the gold he possessed would be insufficient.
'Should I look for another movement-type skill? ' Raydon thought. He now had a pauldron whose skill was already bound to him.
Though the skill was clearly good, the silver pauldron was too flashy. Although the items Raydon has discovered thus far are not fashionable, he was unconcerned about his appearance, but the reflection of the sun's rays from the pauldron in a sunny match could reveal his location to the enemy.
'Anyway, I already have a jacket to wear. ' He thought the gray-grade jacket in his dimensional storage would solve the issue when he remembered it.
''Okay, I think we can return now. ''
For the upcoming match, Raydon was now fully prepared. There were also various crafting items for sale in Stalls, but he didn't even look at them because he has no need for them right now. A body enchantment was something else he wanted to purchase, but as the old man had warned, it would be very difficult to find since he hadn't run into any while looking around.
In any case, it wasn't that urgent right now. After all, F-Rank matches were easy for him.
