My Spirit Item is Something Special?
Gettin dat gold through maps

Gettin dat gold through maps

----------------------------------------

Toothpick Spear:

Common

Durability: 5/5

+1 ATK

A wooden spear that is small enough for small humanoids to use. Can be thrown for long-reach attacks

----------------------------------------

Well, it's better than nothing, I guess... it took me six tries before I was finally able to create a spear without the item breaking. Sure enough, I still didn't get a crafting-related skill... maybe this ring really is a bad item if I can't gather vast amounts of skills as I had planned... But no, there has to be some sort of gimmick. The devs wouldn't make an item that is worse than having no item, right? Especially if it's a game like this where you don't even get to choose what the item is... right?

Oh, the spear has the glowing dot! I wasn't expecting that!

----------------------------------------

"Would you like to learn the skill, ?"

Yes/No

----------------------------------------

Hmm? judging by the name, this skill will probably help with throwing-related attacks, well the description of the spear does say that the spears can be thrown, so I guess it makes sense to get a skill like this, but I really was hoping on a skill that would have made this process easier... actually, having a long distance attack as a Pixie, a.k.a, something that can fly out of melee range, could be a very useful skill... And I am definitely willing to delete that skill for this since I never plan on getting up close and personal anyways.

----------------------------------------

Ah crap, I forgot it takes the spear with it, haaa; I'll just make another one later; for now, let's finally go buy that chalk! Oh yeah, I switched back to while trying to make that spear since my other skills weren't being used, and passive EXP is the best kind of EXP.

Stolen novel; please report.

Quickly flying back to the Merchant guild, I sold the Mastwana Mushrooms and bought a piece of chalk and two fragments of thatch paper; thus, my account now only holds a measly 8 copper... It's kind of taking a good amount of effort not to turn these items into skills... well I can look at what the skills will be without actually destroying them... so maybe just a peek.

----------------------------------------

"Would you like to learn the skill, ?"

Yes/No

----------------------------------------

----------------------------------------

"Would you like to learn the skill, ?"

Yes/No

----------------------------------------

That... doesn't help, I have a very vague idea of what these skills do, but it's probably, no, definitely better to use the skill and turn these two thatch papers into maps of the town, and if the map they gave me at the beginning is anything to go by, the maps don't need too much detail, just the essential parts like shops and districts will probably do for now...

And that's precisely what I did, I flew around town and marked the general locations down onto the thatch paper until the name changed to map

----------------------------------------

Map (Poor)

Common

A map of Therabelle Treetop Town can only be understood by someone who already knows their way around the area.

----------------------------------------

What do you mean Poor? I did the best of my ability! Sure, I'm no artist, but this is just as good a map as any! ...Okay, it does have a few scratches here and there where I screwed up, but come on, it's still eligible! Fiiiiiine, I'll chalk it up to being practice and my second one being the one I actually sell... the worst part is, I can't get a skill from the poorly rated map... Okay, let's focus, this time, I'll draw a quick sketch of the nearby trees as a sort of road to lead between the important hollows, that way, It will be easier to follow the map, thus making the map a higher quality!

----------------------------------------

Map (Decent)

Common

A map of Therabelle Treetop Town, A good map for someone who is new to the area

----------------------------------------

Haaa, all that work, and it's only decent? How can I waste an hour and a half slowly flying around town, only for the map to be considered decent? The only good news is that the merchant guild had bought the poor-rated map... for 3 copper... I was able to spend it on another piece of thatch paper immediately, but I don't think I want to waste any more time with this than I have to, it's nowhere near as fun as things like potion-making or owning a store and bargaining... would if I just... copied down the first map onto the thatch paper, it would take significantly less time than it did the first time...

15 minutes later, and I had a 1-1 replica of the decent map, and it is counted as a decent map itself! This will save so much time!

----------------------------------------

Eh? Two pop-ups at once? I was expecting the second one to happen sooner or later, but the first one? So here I was, thinking 15 minutes compared to an hour and a half was good, but now it's instant? Hold on, I gotta go test this.

I went back to the merchant guild, which I was only a few branches away from, and sold the copied down map, this time getting a whopping 33 copper... it kind of makes me feel like the first day I had played, thinking it would take multiple hours to get to a single silver coin kinda dumb now... Anyways, the ability said it would consume mana, but I don't know how much, nor do I know if it can fail, so for now, let's just use and send me back to full, to immediately use , which surprisingly, completely drained all of my mana, leaving an exact copy of the map I made before sitting on my lap. It's weird how dizzy I get when my mana is drained like this, but at least my map-making days will be quick.
