Uldin laughed out loud, "great! Good! Good! I haven't felt like this since a long time ago." He laughed even harder, his laugh was strange and it echoed in the area. Aldrich opened his eyes wide, he may have gone overboard just now. He thought that he toned down his words bu it seems like his words were still a little too sharp. After a while Uldin calmed down, "good. Enough, yes I do need a customer but you need me more. I will take nine potions and you will get one for your trouble." "Don't joke…

Aldrich didn't care about the commotion in the carriage which was carrying all of his groceries and things. He hopped out of the carriage and ran to the alley right behind it. There he found a slumped figure, he got closer and even with the dim light he saw the face clearly. It was an old beggar woman, he found her once begging outside of his apartment building. The woman's hair was entirely white and her skin was crumbled and dry and filled with cracks, on her face and exposed arms he noted brown…

"All you have to do is stand around" Ayemon replied nonchalantly, "oh, and shake a few hands every once in a while. Besides it's a good opportunity for you isn't it?" That's right, who were Ayemon's guests? Important people! This was a valuable opportunity to get to know them even if it's just showing his face. "Okay, I will be there. Just tell me who is the main guest?" Aldrich asked because he was curious who Ayemon went out of his way to prepare so much for. "It's lord McConnell, one of Vorian's…

Aldrich raced on his horse through the wooods and followed the prompt but he couldn't do that for long. But half the work was already done. "Heya!" Only he was greeted with the worst possible scene. Ayemon held the horned fox by the horn and it was already shot dead by an accurate arrow to the heart. "Oh? You got here much faster than I expected…" "Y-you knew where to find it from the beginning!" Aldrich realized with a start. "Oh, yeah. Well, I knew where to look. This is after all my backyard, I…

Aldrich recalled his terrible experience on the ancient land bridge and bit his lips. He was indeed suspicious and a little apprehensive regarding the blind priestess. The main reason was how easily she disolved the situation and how she made him lower his guard towards her. Even that was only because he knew he logically should not trust her. Not because he actually felt malice or ill intentions from her. His senses was only a feeling and it could be wrong which is why Aldrich used a logical approach…

As the blood of the husk ran down the invisible sword and reveal what happened. The husk had unknowingly impaled itself by jumping as if it wanted to kill itself. The skill created a perfect replica of his sword, only he could control it with his mind in five meter radius and it was invisible. Of course it's invisible only to the naked eye, it still cast a shadow and caused winds when it moved. A perceptive opponent might've noticed it. Of course it was still deadly and could take one by surprise at…

Aldrich didn't wear any armor he was just wearing casual clothes he brought from the real world. A brown shirt and some trousers, nothing too special. He didn't need any traditional armor anymore, his body was enough for regular swords and arrows. At this point a normal set of plates would only hinder and annoy him. Of course the story is different if it was a wondrous item or a magic plate. But that was a difficult request. He didn't know much about the magic items of the nightmare realm but he knew…

Aldrich took the key of the superior and walked down to the basement. He stood before the metallic gate and inserted the key into the center of the wheel. With a clinking sound he turned the wheel and it finally moved. In the past no matter how much he pushed it wouldn't budge and yet today it only took a little nudge. Indeed, force was not always the optimal method. His patience payed off. If he had insisted on doing things there and then, perhaps he would be in the same place as the Lost Ones of Voros,…
