Day 6
Over night I left the Slimes to breed on their own. In total we’ve got three more Blue Slimes, four more Red Slimes, one more Mossy Slime, one more Rock Slime, and one more Gray Slime. I’m going to release the Mossy Rock Slimes back into the cave once I have a chance. Their cores are useless for anything I plan on making.
I’m Going to town today, I think i’ll use the rest of my Alchemy sets to make Gray Slimes to sell. I’ll log the results.

I’ll update my log once I get to town.
Looks like my last entry was a lie. I’m lost…
It’s kinda sad honestly. I have a map and everything. If it comes down to it I i’ll summon my guide. That will be my last resort.
I hate that smarmy spirit. “Oh you’re lost AGAIN?” One day i’ll get back at him.

I’ve arrived at town. Looks as if they are in the middle of some kind of festival. I hope it doesn’t interfere with my core selling.
I had a big surprise at the enchanters shop. John and Mel we’re looking for some high grade armor at the shop when I showed up. I guess they were planning on heading back to the Academy tomorrow after they geared up. They asked me if I wanted to do some dungeon runs with them for some extra gold. I would have accepted if they were running the Slime dungeon, unfortunately i'm not a big fan of the undead. They did say after they report to the Deen they’ll be back for some monster runs. Let's hope everything goes okay with the letter I gave them.
Other then that I sold off eight Gray Slime Cores. I got about sixty four Gold for all of them. I left the rest to mingle. Wink [https://forum.royalroadl.com/images/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif]
I think i'm going to get an inn for the night. With all the runes I’ve placed around my camp I doubt anyone can get close to my setup. I wasted a lot of time getting lost in the forest so it's getting late. I’ll update if I find anything.
I guess all the inns are full for the festival. I think I might have to register in the adventurer's guild for a room. If you didn’t know the adventurer's guild offers rooms to anyone over C rank. With my magical capability I should be able to rank around A or so. That could land me a good room if I play my cards right. Lets just hope I get paired up with a tester that’s not bias against magicians.
I’m currently in the waiting room right now with three other muscular types. There are two testers. One’s a Dual Swords Wielder and the other is a Fire Mage. It looks like this place uses the dual testing method. I'm in luck. A mage should mean I can’t be held back that much. Mages aren't that popular in the adventure profession. They’re typically seen as tools of war rather than a soldier. I hear it's a big problem in the adventurer's guild due to many warriors only seeing mages as spoiled nobles, and it doesn’t help that about ninety percent of the mage population are actually nobles. Looks like my time is up. I’ll update the log after the results.
Looks like I got a B+ rank. The mage said they would rank higher if they could, but they we’re only A ranks. I'm not really looking for a higher rank so i'm satisfied with the free room and the five free midgrade health potions. It’s still about half day so i’m going to finish my shopping.
I’ve decided to sell some of my potions I’ve made back in the academy. In total i'm up to about 90 gold. Just for perspective that's enough to buy about a year's worth of food for a family of three, or just around forty five highgrade alchemy sets. I shouldn’t need to come back for a while if i'm a bit more conservative with my potion use.
I might spend some of my money in making a potion injector rather than having to use Water Skin potions for each Slime. I’ll have to visit the blacksmith before night.
Apparently for such “fine work” it will set me back twenty gold. I think I got ripped off but it's worth the investment. I’ll buy thirty alchemy sets then keep ten gold for emergencies.
Looks like it's getting dark. I’ll call it a night and head to the inn.
