Chapter 8

***

The book i read was very helpful,with it, i could easily find out about what does the herbs and monster i’m looking for looks like.

I asked the librarian if they have a piece of paper and they gave me a small piece which looks like it’s from a damaged book. I jotted down all the important pieces of information i could remember onto the paper so i could check them later.

After that i went downstair to get some equipment and basic necessities as an adventurer from the general store. I got myself a light chainmail, high leather boots, oversized woolen coat with hood , leather purse around my hips , drinking canteen , a leather book , a dagger , a long iron sword and scabbard tied to my back , simple map which is quite expensive , dried meats , a comfortable fabric gloves and other miscellaneous stuff like rope, stake, whetstone and a shabby rags.

I went quite on a shopping spree but it was worth it since it prove its usefulness later down the road. I would love it if they sell waterproof equipment too.

⌜ Well it’s a fantasy game set in mediaeval time, of course they hasn’t exist yet.⌟

I put the topic aside and advanced to do my quests. Fortunately i didn’t need to travel far, only to the outskirts of the town.

Thankfully i jotted down important informations on my small pieces of paper. Armed with the knowledge, i did my second quest first to pick 25 calendula herbs that i could find. After a solid hour, i has reached the threshold amount.

Onward to the next task, i changed my location and went to the area with thicker patch of grasses since the book i read mentioned about cambert rabbits usually like to hide within the patch of grasses. There were a few sketches of it but i don’t know how they would compare to normal domesticated rabbits.

Soon after, i spotted three of them in a same group. Instead of sword, i just freeze them up nice and good. I don’t think i want to slice up something so cute and fluffy.

The quest went well, i rather quickly found all 15 of them and freezed all of it. Same as the calendula herbs, i stored them away in my inventories. Surprisingly, some of the rabbit doesn’t stack up as one type of item. I thought it was weird but i figured i’ll just figure it later. For now, i need to go back and submit the quests i’ve taken.

***

I successfully completed the quest, i was rewarded with 28 silver and 25 copper. It was a pretty comfortable amount especially when you’re just starting out. Not to mention i pretty much spent everything i had when i bought my equipment.

I decided to call it a day and not take any more quest and log out for now.

⌜ I’ll be back later, i just need to finish my assignment first…⌟

⟪ Welcome back to Half Reality dear player ⟫

⌜ The System’s voice sounds oddly unusual for today… ? ⌟

Anyways, i’m back to continue doing quest and enjoy the game. I picked up another quest at the guild, it was fishing quest … ? ⌜ Why the heck there’s a quest to get some fishes… ⌟

Nonetheless, i need to buy a fishing rod and spare for it, who knows that the fish would just break my rod. Luckily, general store also sells fishing equipment, i also have gotten myself small jar of earth worm as bait. On top of that i quickly stopped by the library to get some information on the quest.

My quest was to catch 50 winged carp… ⌜ Ugh… I’m starting to regret this a little… ⌟

***

Shortly, i arrived at a river, however because the water is so muddy i changed my location to go more upstream where it might clearer. Thankfully i was correct. I put on the bait and casted my lines onward.

It didn’t take long for fish to start biting but no fish committed to it enough to pull the rod so i just wait again while replacing the bait from time to time.
