Getting ready

The plate held different kinds of shellfish, sea fruits and fish filets. I expected this kind of meal to be luxury and cost a shit ton.

'Only 8 Dyjn?'

Come to think of it all the other places only either had red meat or vegetables. Is it that sea food is considered low quality? Or simply a social standard that sea food is food for the poor?

I don't know, I don't care. Back on earth I couldn't afford such a meal without being hunted down by my landlord. So it's a surprise, yes, but a welcome one.

It was delicious.

The shellfish that looked like the crossbreed of crab and lobster with a hue of shrimp had a soft inside. I was pleasantly surprised when I noticed that it was seasoned, the chef put a lot of effort into this.

The oyster shells didn't open easily but that didn't bother me. Back on earth oysters were the most expensive things that I could afford to eat. So I was again pleasantly surprised when the insides had rice in them.

'Exactly how I like it'

The fish filets belonged to something that probably is sopused to be a salmon but has white meat. I can tell that it was cooked in an oven instead of a pan. The seasoning complemented the white meat perfectly and practically mealted on my tounge.

"My praise to the chef."

She looked genuinely surprised that I enjoyed the meal and she was bewildered when I left a tip.

Now that my stomach was truly satisfied I felt stronger than ever before. My mind was also clear and only now the weight of killing two men fell on me.

'I...actually killed them'

Just now I realised that my mind was foged.

'Why did I kill them in the first place?'

The monarch ordered it, that's why. I can't even refuse the monarchs order since my expertise lay in the physical area.

Stolen novel; please report.

'What about meele combat?'

'You really think that a monarch, who can let people get the title of God, is worse at combat than you?'

'Yeah, you're right'

With 490 Dyjn I should be able to get myself a good sword, but what kind of sword?

A rapier is out of the question, it favors reach, spead and precision. Whilst my long arms give me good reach I lack other two, what actually makes the rapier lethal is precision since stabbing the main arteries on the arm is just as lethal as cutting off the whole ass arm.

I thought about what sword to use until it hit me.

My class is all about holding my ground against multiple enemies. My fighting style and its description are in German.

Panzer tanz

Ein blutiger tanz dessen Schönheiten in ihre Brutalität und zerstörerischen Natur liegt. Der Tänzer kann es mit mehreren Gegnern auf einmal aufnehmen solange seine Bewegungen nicht eingeschränkt sind.

Both my class and fighting style are meant to hold of multiple enemies at once. So maybe I should pick a sword that also does that?

Fighting off multiple enemies and breaking through pikelines, that's the greatswords duty.

You know what? I'll go with the German Zweihänder.

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

Finding such a thing is the hard part.

First I had to find the place where they sell weapons n shit.

Then I had to crawl out of a pit since I'm incapable of looking where I'm going.

And then find one that actually sells swords.

Then find one that sells greatswords.

"How much for this one?"

"370"

The hooded figure that had way too many limbs than he should answered with a single word. Well he doesn't talk much but that's fine, his voice is as off putting as he looks.

"And one with a durability enchantment?"

"450"

"I'll take it."

He only nodded in response and took the greatsword to the back.

After a few minutes he came back from the back, that doesn't sound right Mr. Author.

> Shut up

The sword now had a sort of pentagram on the base of the blade.

"Thank you."

He only nodded in response.

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

Back at the tower Üllra welcomed me with the same warm attitude they showed me when I left.

"Hey, you haven't told me your name yet."

Ah, right.

"Well, call me Költ."

A smile on both of their faces.

"Hey, uhh, where is one of the training areas?"

Their smile didn't fade and pointed at another random door.

"Thank you."

"Nothing to thank for."

Walking through the corridor the door lead to I could feel the air getting cooler. It lead to a spacious room with training weights, dummies and sand fields to spar.

So thus is the training area.

Time to see how much stronger I actually got.
