To The Other World With Sacred Scripture

Chapter 8 - Equipment, Quest, and Partners

In a gun shop in the Scocery Kingdom shopping mall.

I entered the store.

I saw various weapons hanging neatly on the wall, there were swords, spears, daggers, bows, and everything else.

At the end of the room, there was a large man with a muscular body was serving the buyers. "The gun shop and the big guy, it's really like a game" I thought.

He seems like a friendly person. Seen from the way he spoke and served that buyer, hmm... Is it because she's a woman? When he finished with her, he called me...

"Woi, kid. You need cheap but quality equipment, right?"

Wow, he can read other people's minds.

"Right, how do you know?"

"Of course I know, you're one of the many newbies who come here. Must be Lucy's recommendation."

Now that I get it, he's working with the counter-keeper woman. Oh right, that's the name of the pretty counter guard that's in the Adventurers Guild.

"If you know, how many coins do I have to pay for a set of supplies?"

I asked directly to the point.

"Hm.. Before that can I see your Status Scrolls?"

( Note : Scrolls Status \= Scrolls status )

"uh? What's for?"

I'm afraid to give it away not because my personal information will be known, but I don't want to be insulted anymore, honestly it's annoying.

"Just calm down, I just want to know your status so that it will be in accordance with the weapons you use."

He looked at my status carefully, then said...

"Nothing is striking you... Your strength, speed, stamina, and ingenuity are all ordinary. And whatever your mana, you must be crazy to want to be an adventurer. Now go home and be a trader like me, you're pretty smart, you're sure to be successful with ease."

Damn it, just a few hours so adventurer I was immediately hit by a massive attack.

"I want to be an adventurer."

I looked at him while puckered my face.

"Well, what can I do, it's your decision I'm just giving advice. Then I suggest you use a dagger, if the arrow is not necessarily you can hit your enemy, if your sword must be difficult to swing it, not the enemy who hit even your friend who might be cut..."

"Yes... Da... I understand, the important thing is that I already have weapons and equipment. So how much is it?"

I cut the explanation and want to quickly go home, my originally burning spirit instantly extinguished, dark, quiet, silent, like a dead light.

"Here, there's daggers, clothes, pants, robes, and shoes. Since you're a unique person so I'll give you a friendship price, just 30 silver coins, how about it?"

"alright... Thank ye... And I'll see you."

I picked up my stuff and put money on the table with a little bang. Then get out of that shop and go back to the inn, I want to replenish the spirit and energy again. Though it was still afternoon, but I was lazy to move.

*****

The sun began to crawl up and the second day I became an adventurer began...

It had been quite a while since I walked from the inn until I finally arrived in front of the Adventurer Guild. As usual, the place was crowded with adventurers.

"Hmmm..."

I went straight to Lucy's place to request a quest. But there was something strange, there was a girl, I felt like I had met her, but forgot where.

That girl is beautiful. She was probably about the same age as me, her eyes with bright red pupils looked beautiful, her pure white hair dangling all the way to her back. He's a little taller than my shoulder.

With black adventurer clothes looks suitable to wear. He carried a fairly long Rapier type sword.

"Good morning, Kai... Now you look like an adventurer."

"Ah, yes... Good morning Lucy, too, so what's the quest..."

I haven't finished yet, the girl cut my talk.

"Oh, so this weak adventurer will be my partner?"

"Oii, do I have anything wrong with you, why do you talk like that?"

She looks beautiful when she is silent, but so annoying when she talks. Forget about my compliments, let's just say I never praised him.

"Oh yeah, I forgot to introduce you. This girl is named Asia, just like you she's a rookie adventurer. You're gonna be a team."

Chees... Though fellow beginners, but talk at will.

"I don't want a party with him!"

"I don't want to either!" asia said clearly.

"Heh you two, don't act like a kid! You're gonna need each other. If your attitude is like this better go home and forget about being adventurous."

Lucy becomes so angry, she looks like a parent who counsels two foolish and selfish young people.

"Hhh... All right, we'll try to work together. It's Asia... Whoi!?"

"Ehm... Yeah..."

Me and Asia showed each other the Status Scrolls. This girl's status was extraordinary, her strength and speed were far above mine, where hers reached 250, inversely proportional to my status.

Maybe this is what we mean by needing each other. I need him to survive as an adventurer, but what does he need from me? There's no way he needs things like that... "Aware woi."

Then we did a party-building ritual. It's a little long and a little complicated, to anticipate betrayal or something. Well, even though it rarely happens here.

Long story short we finally managed to make a party and get a quest. As a beginner we got a D level quest, the lowest level for a request/work. In this world, the difficulty in quests is differentiated into five, the lowest D, then rises to C, B, A, and for the most difficult and dangerous is the level of S/SS/SSS, and then rises to C, usually the quest appeared during a war emergency.

"So, what's our first assignment?"

I asked Asia, she's the one who brought the quest paper.

"Exorcising monsters in the estate."

"Well, it looks like it'll be fun!"

"Right, let's get there."

"Okay..."

We rushed to the plantation, although it came a little afternoon was also no problem.

Gru... Gruru...

"Oi, is that your stomach?"

I stopped and asked him.

"No, it's nothing, let's move on."

He answered without looking me in the eye.

"You're hungry, right? Let's eat first, we don't need to rush."

"Ahhhhh... Let's go quickly, complete the mission, and earn some money."

"alright... "

Though eating was important for energy, but he completely avoided it, strange...

Gru... Gruraro... Grururglg..

"Well... Your stomach's roaring again."

"Hhh..."

He was embracing his stomach while bowing his face. If she's embarrassed she's cute too hehe.

"Why don't you want to eat? On diet?"

Shaking his head.

"A stomachache?"

Shaking his head.

"No money?"

He just kept still embracing his stomach.

Fuck Lucy, so this is what we mean by needing each other. I was put together with a fierce beauty who had no money. "Hhh... Gini is alive." To you pretty Neng.

"Hey, if you're hungry, don't shut up. We're a party so no need to hesitate, let's eat me who will treat you."

"Well! Really true?"

Whatever his expression was, it was easy to change. Hm... But, this was better than her cold expression just now.

"Yes..."

"May I choose a place?"

"Yes..."

"After eating we stop by the juice shop!"

"Yes... "

"It's been decided, let's get there before it gets crowded."

"Yes..."

Asia pulled my hand and ran towards the eating place with a big smile on her face.

We ran all the way while holding hands like dating people. People could only look at us in wonder.

Bodo is just like everyone else.

On the plus side, I can be more familiar with weird girls.

And finally we ate before going to the quest place.

Hhh... Eating problems can be long.

"Women are DIFFERENT...!"
