Hmm, what should we get?
{Just get whatever. I mean, we'll eat basically anything that tastes good.}(Snow)
True, but we need to find the best one.
{And why's that?}(Snow)
Well, we'll be here for a while, so why not find the best food.
{Well, that does sound good, but it doesn't sound very practical.}(Snow)
Hmm, then let's buy one of every kind of skewer we pass.
{Again, this does not sound very practical or cost-efficient.}(Snow)
Well, it's not like I have anything to spend money on.
{No, you have plenty you need to buy.}(Snow)
(Cocky) Oh yeah, like what.
{Do you want a list or.}(Snow)
Sure shoot.
{Well, you asked for it. First clothes. You can't just wear the same set of clothes every day, all day. Second, a house. You don't just want to mooch off of Ella for the rest of your life, do you, you lazy slacker? Third, savings. Never know when you'll need a lot of money or do you plan to keep going into debt. Four-}(Snow)
"I get it already, so stop!!"(Rina)
*Turn head*x30
{You're the one who asked for it, not me. I specifically warned that you'd hate it.}(Snow)
Fine, fine, I get it. I need to save up money, so stop.
{*Sigh* What would you do without me. Well, at least you see that you can be irresponsible. Now let's buy 5 skewers and go hunting.}(Snow)
(Dead Pan) Weren't you just nagging me about being cost-efficient?
{I was. Rina, you do realize that we are an over 2-meter-tall wolf, right? That means we need a lot of food. Hell, 5 skewers would be considered a light snack, but it's not suggesting going and spending like 3 silver coins on skewers in a single outing.
And plus, we can just eat the meat of the things we hunt and sell the pelt and plants.}(Snow)
"Tch, cheap skate."(Rina)
{I heard that.}(Snow)
(Annoyed) So? I don't care. You're the one stopping me from food.
{(Flat) You sound like a dog begging for food.}(Snow)
"(Mad) I do not!!"(Rina)
*Turn head*x30
{You do. And now you're throwing a fit because I'm right.}(Snow)
Shut up! You have no right to talk as a piece of me!
{You do know you're only making your case worse, right?}(Snow)
Just shut up! You cruel little sister!
{Says the dense and irresponsible older sister.}(Snow)
Rrr. Fine! Then I won't talk to you ever again!
{I doubt you have the willpower to do that.}(Snow)
Hmph.
{See, you're only proving my point.}(Snow)
Hmph.
{Fine, if that's how you want to be, then I'll do the same!}(Snow)
Fine! Hmph.
{Hmph.}(Snow)
"Stupid Snow, who needs her anyway. Hmph."(Rina)

*Sniff Sniff*
"*Looks to the right* Oh that smells good."(Rina)
*Step Step Step*
"What can I get cha?"(?)
"5 skewers, please."(Rina)
"5 horned rabbit skewers coming right up.
"*Hands skewers* That'll be 9 bronze coins."(?)
"9? I thought it was 2 copper a skewer. Well here. *Hands coins*"(Rina)
"Meh, you bought 5, so I gave ya a discount."(?)
"(Surprised) Thanks."(Rina)
"Sure."(?)
*Step Step step*
*Nom*
Mmm. This is pretty good. Not too much salt and herbs, and cooked to a perfect temperature.
Hey S- No. I'm still mad at her.
I then finished and walked to the forest.
Guess I'll go hunt in wolf form. But what should I hunt? He- No, I can't ask her for her help.
(Depressed) *Sigh* I'm starting to realize how quiet and lonely things are without her. No, don't think that! This is what she wants!
*Flash*
Let's just kill whatever is on the way.
----------------------------------------
I then spent a good hour killing goblins, horned rabbits, 2 boars, a shadow snake that tried to ambush me, a few hobgoblins, an orc, and caught some fish in a river with icicles.
*Sigh* All that hunting and no levels. And without someone to talk to, it gets really boring and lonely fast.
*Boom*
Hm? It sounds like something strong is fighting. Let's check it out.
[Shadow Step]
*Fwm*
----------------------------------------
*Fwm*
Hmm, it seems like an orc general is fighting some of the wolves in my pack. And from the looks of it, the wolves are going to lose. While they did manage to kill 4 orcs, it seems they used up all of their stamina and still have 2 high orcs and the general to kill.
While I don't like to steal kills but, they'll die otherwise so I'll take out the general, and they can kill the high orcs.
[Shadow Step]
*Fwm*
*Flash*
*Fwm*
Now, let's see how well an orc general can withstand Nifl. [Shadow Step]
*Fwm*
[Claw arts: Shadow Claw Slash]
*Woosh*
*Groooo*
"Bastard! Who dares attack me from behind!? *Turns around*"(Orc General)
Heh, stupid pig! I'm not behind you. And wow. Nifl, you really are a good weapon.
{Hmph, of course, I am. I can conduct and enhance all forms of energy, meaning your spells and arts are faster and stronger. But that's not all I can do. I can also come to you anywhere in this universe, provide the best defense for your hands, and I can do housework.}(Nifl)
Was that last part really necessary to say?
{Absolutely. Also, one question master.}(Nifl)
What's up?
{What happened to your sister? Don't you usually talk to her?}(Nifl)
H-Huh? You know about us talking?
{I mean, yeah. I've heard you talk over telepathy.}(Nifl)
Wait, you can listen in on using telepathy?
{No, it's just you forgot to close the channel.}(Nifl)
Th-Then did you hear our argument?
{No, I only heard what you yelled. I closed the channel in the guild master's room to give you your privacy.}(Nifl)
*Sigh* Me and Snow got into a fight, and we ended up not talking to each other.
{What was it about?}(Nifl)
It was about how to spend money. I wanted to buy a skewer from each stall, but she said not to because I need to save it.
{Well, that sounds like something stupid to not talk over.}(Nifl)
{(Is not!)}(Rina and Snow)
{It definitely is. Sure, you might have different thoughts on money spending, but, it's not something to stop talking with each other over it. I mean, it's just money; it's not like you can't just get more. Granted, you shouldn't just spend it all on useless things, but there is no need to hoard it like you'll die without it.}(Nifl)
I guess she's right.
{Me too.}(Snow)
{Good. Now, say sorry, move past it, and let's finish this giant pig.}(Nifl)
{(Sorry)}(Rina and Snow)
{Good, now to kill big ugly over there.}(Nifl)
Right, now, the question is how to do it?
{How about a surprise attack at his heart with some shadow snack venom?}(Snow)
No, that'll poison the meat.
{True. Then what about [Dark Ice Impalement] to skewer all the orcs?}(Snow)
I would, but I don't want to steal their kills.
{It's fine. I doubt they'd be able to take on one high orc with their current state.}(Snow)
*Sigh* I guess you're right. Then [Aether: Dark Ice Impalement]x3
*Ccrrr*x3
*Shick*x3
*Ding*
[Level up!]
And before they all knew what happened, 3 large and thick icicles impaled all of the orcs through the heart from their shadows. Granted, the orc generals just barely came out the other side as a testament to its strength.
*GGRrraooooo...*
And after one last scream, it finally collapsed and died.
*Ding*
[Level up!]x 9
Hm? 9 levels from just the general? Just how strong was it!?
{Rina, I think you got 9 because of the leftover exp from the High Orcs.}(Snow)
I gue-
*Ding*
[Users level exceeds level 30. Would user like to advance their class? Y/N]
(Surprised) Huh? I passed level 30? (Excited) Th-Then does that mean I can finally break this damn thing!?
{Yeah, we should have more than enough mana to destroy this damn thing.}(Snow)
"YES! FINALLY, I CAN DESTROY THIS DAMN THING!!!!"(Rina)
{Uh, first I think you should advance your class master.}(Nifl)
I guess it couldn't hurt.
Yes.
*Ding*
[Please choose from provided classes.]
* True Holy Fenriric Assassin Grandmaster(Claw) (Mystic)
* True Holy Fenriric Claw Saint (Mystic)
* True Holy Fenriric Clawed Sage (Mystic)
* True Holy Fenriric Clawed Wrathful Berserker (Mystic)
(Shocked) Um, ok. That is a lot of mystic classes.
{Rina, whatever you choose don't pick [Wrathful Berserker].}(Snow)
So, you also got a bad feeling from it, huh?
{Yeah. My intuition is saying that it's bad news.}(Snow)
Same here. Well, I wasn't going to choose it anyway. It doesn't suit my style of fighting. Neither does the saint class. Which leaves the assassin and sage. While I do like my magic, the assassin is what I'm best at. So, assassin.
*Ding*
[Class Fenriric warrior has advanced into the mystic class True Holy Fenriric Assassin Grandmaster(Claw).]
Ok, now to our room to get this off!
