Re: Player-Chapter 38: [By the beach side!]

[All conditions fulfilled!]

[Save Point Created!]

The smell of scented candles relaxed my breathing and the soft texture of the bed sheets felt more comfortable the more I tried to get away from them. The temperature was just a little cold, enough to feel refreshed, and the thin cotton blanket was warm enough to feel cozy.

I don't remember my memories from my past life, but I don't think I have slept this well in my entire life.

But like all good things must come to an end, this too shall halt. Slowly pushing myself away from the bed, I dragged my body to the bath. I chose a cold bath over a hot one to freshen myself up quicker.

"Awaaah!.... I guess there is still an hour before the date," I yawned, half-asleep as I washed myself with soap. While cleaning myself, my energy revitalized and I could shake the leftover dizziness away.

After washing my hair and then brushing my teeth, I then cleansed my face as well. And once I was done with these miscellaneous tasks, I finally dressed myself before getting out of the room.

"Let's first check out the shop," I mumbled since I had some time before moving to the ground floor before visiting the shop. There were a couple of things which could be bought with gold and reputation alike. Accordingly, you can gain reputation from doing quests and use the points to buy things from here.

"Hmmm… okay, those are nice," I checked through the weapons before presenting them to the shop owner. After haggling, I got it at a cost of 3 gold and 23 silver, leaving me with a total of 6 gold and 105 silver.

[Wolfbane Dagger (Rare)!]

[Description: Created by using the bones of the Alpha Wolf, this dagger contained the essence of the leader. It has been further enhanced by using the blood and Mana Core of the wolf, taking its attack power one step further.

Effects:

+20% Piercing Effect!

+20% Blood Damage!

+30% more damage against monsters when hunting alone!

Remark: They were specifically created for hunting!]

[Ring of Inversion (Rare)!]

[Description: Created by the Mage of Anti-Magic, this ring is supposed to create a protective spell around the wearer that will deflect all magic which comes to it. Though there is a limit to what it can handle.

-Creates a shield of mana based on the user's Wisdom!

-The shield can absorb 5 times the user's Wisdom!

-Once the shield's effect is over, 10% of the absorbed mana is transferred to the user!

Remarks: It's a little tricky item, but in the right hands it can show its true potential!]

[Boots of Eagledrew (Uncommon)!]

[Effects:

+10 Dexterity

+1% of the user's Strength will be increased as Dexterity!]

"You are not going to buy armor or a headgear?" The shopkeeper was an old man who seemed curious about my choices. Though it seemed like he just wanted to sell more of his product to me.

"I will buy after earning a bit more," I smiled awkwardly as I looked at him. Honestly, I would have been fine with just the dagger, but the ring and the boots seemed rather nice.

He nodded as he answered," I will be waiting for you, then. My name is Elrich."

"I am Adam. Do you happen to know any clothes shops nearby?" I asked, he pondered before speaking," there is one about 100 meters on the east of the guild. You will hopefully find something to your liking there."

I politely thanked him before leaving.

Leaving from there, I visited the clothes shop, got a change of ready-made clothes. It took some time, but I succeeded in finding the right pair that seemed better than the others. Can't really trust the words of the shopkeeper that praised me no matter what I wore. 𝒃𝒆𝙙𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝙡．𝙤𝒓𝙜

Taking out the note where Evelyn asked me to reach, I then pondered a little before

[Frenzy!]

[Effects: Allows the user to increase all movements by 30% for 30s

Cooldown: 1 Minute 30 Seconds!]

Using the skill, along with the effect of the boots, I moved at a rapid speed towards the very edge of the city, near the beach restaurant where Evelyn had asked me to come.

"Let's take the shortcut," I muttered as I jumped up at the roof, before running even faster than before. It wasn't just speed but my perception also increased, so doing parkour at a rapid speed was quite easy.

After jumping from one roof to another, I reached the beach area within 10 minutes, before I looked around, trying to find Evelyn among the crowd. Didn't take much time, but I found her standing a bit away from the door of the restaurant.

A bunch of people were trying to approach her as well.

-Whoosh!

I jumped down from the high spot where I was standing before I reached right behind those people. Looking at their status, they seemed to be adventurers. If my guess is not wrong, they were people who already knew Evelyn.

And looking at her expression, she seemed to be having a difficult time trying to avoid them.

"Ummm… excuse me. Can you please stop bothering her?" I asked politely as I observed those adventurers. No point in ruining a date when we can try solving with words, right?
