《Blood Evolution System 》Chapter 134: Hiring
Advertisement
Vincent has planned to check out the effects and effectiveness of his newly awakened ability by combining the purified blood of monsters with a beast's equipment. For that, he needed purified blood with a strengthening effect and a piece of equipment.
"I can obtain the first of the two things by extracting blood from the dozens of corpses of monsters present in the inventory and purifying it. I also have the materials necessary to create equipment. That leaves me with only finding a way to make a piece of equipment out of the materials." Vincent said in his mind, wondering what option should he choose to make equipment out of his materials.
He had two options.
The first option was for him to use a few of his experience points and a lot out of his around 30000 contribution points to learn equipment creation. He would be able to craft items such as beast's weapons, bullets, accessories, armor, and so on once he memorizes the knowledge necessary to create equipment.
The second option for him was to head to a weapon creator and ask them to create equipment out of the three ruby eyes of the behemoth Grim Gore.
Vincent started to think about it long and hard, a deep pondering look settling in his eyes as he calculated the cost that comes with choosing either one of the two options.
"The first option is a no-go as I don't have enough contribution points to purchase knowledge and items necessary to craft equipment," Vincent said after a moment.
He couldn't select the first option as he wasn't rich enough.
The knowledge needed to create equipment will cost as much as 20000 contribution points, but it was something he could afford; however, the items necessary to craft equipment such as a cauldron, fire stones, and fire controlling magic technique will cost about 50000 contribution points, a price he wasn't willing to afford right now.

"I can always learn all of the professions later, but I can't keep myself from witnessing the effect of my ability, Power of Evil!"
Vincent didn't know what kind of thing he will create, but one thing was for sure, he didn't want to keep waiting in anticipation for days.
He decided on the second option as it wasn't going to cost a lot to hire an equipment creator and demand them to create equipment out of the three ruby eyes.
He was still feeling tired and mentally exhausted, side effects that came with absorbing a ton worth of information and overusing magic techniques in a single night. He decided to hit the bed, once again as today was a weekday, and head out of his room the moment the sun hits the dust and night takes over the day.
Several hours later, once Vincent woke up again and turned around to notice that Varth hasn't returned to his living quarters for nearly a day left the room, he shook his head, shrugging off thoughts about his mysterious roommate, and walked out of the room, heading towards the marketplace of the military academy in order to get equipment.
"Hey, are you equipment creator, Jamie?" Vincent asked as he looked at a bald man with a burly physique two time times bigger than himself.
Jamie nodded and said, "Indeed, it is I. Freshman, have you come for my service?"
"Yes," Vincent said. "I would like you to make a bracelet out of these three materials."
While saying those words, he handed over three big crimson eyes to the burly equipment creator.
Jamie accepted them with a somewhat surprised look on his face as he has never seen such materials in his life, and a moment later, his body trembled as if he got zapped, and his eyes widened to complete rounds

"Huh?! These seem like the treasured eyes of the Grim Gores. But there's something different about them. Almost as if they belong to a Grim Gore far powerful than the fifth level of the magical realm. But how could that be possible when the natural evolution limit of that monster peaks at the fifth level of the magical realm." He said, mouth agape in shock.
Hearing Jamie's words of bewilderment, Vincent felt impressed not by himself for possessing a never before seen material but by the knowledge and precision of the weapon creator. He determined that the eyes look similar to that of grim gore with a single look and also list everything about that monster. Only a person who has invested his entire life in his profession could do something like so, and equipment creator, Jamie, was one such person.
"These materials belong to a behemoth Grim Gore that managed to surpass its natural evolution limits," Vincent said in a calm voice, telling Jamie the truth.
Jamie stood still as if struck by a lightning bolt, unable to believe that the boy in front of him was lucky enough to meet, slay, and obtain materials from such a monster.
"You sure did get lucky to encounter such a mystical being," Jamie said after a moment.
"Um, can you make equipment out of it?" Vincent asked, coming straight to the reason why he came here.
"Although it is damaged and in a pretty rough state, I can still work my magic on this and create a Bracelet of Strength. It's an item that will boost your overall physical capabilities by a certain amount. However, I will need to use extra materials as these three eyes are badly damaged. And that will cost you a bit more." Jamie said, explaining the type and effects of the equipment he can create by using the material provided to him by Vincent.
"Don't worry about the cost, and just create it," Vincent said in a hurry.
"Then, let's finalize the deal."
"Alright,"
Blue Stones × 3 – 1300 contribution points
Material Fusion Magic scroll ×3 – 1200 contribution points
Equipment Creator Jamie's service cost – 2500 contribution points
"That'll be a total cost of 5000 contribution points," Jamie said after calculating the cost of the creation of the equipment.

The Underbelly
There's something wrong with Port City. In the aftermath of the Hyde Park massacre, the city increased its police force dramatically, and Wyatt Milter found himself in uniform, with a gun, a badge, and dreams of someday making detective, but with no clue how to actually make it happen. These days a new, ugly kind of violence is rising on the streets. As a bizarre group of characters emerges from Port City's underbelly, Wyatt will be forced into making a difficult decision. Will he remain a cop? Or will he serve a different kind of justice? (Author's Note: I started writing this about 10 years ago and only now got around to the idea of uploading it. As a result, much of this predates the rising popularity of the Green Arrow. I'm uploading as is, but future drafts will make minor alterations to the character to differentiate it.)

The Fate of The Summoned (being ReWritten)
The Fate of The Summoned In the world of Aethion things are vastly different than on Earth. There is Magic and Monsters, as well as Demons and Dragons. Throughout the history of the world there have been many wars, both between all the various nations and kingdoms and between those nations and kingdoms and the Demonic forces lead by a Demon King or Lord. There are times that the Demons gain so much more power than the other nations, or that the others are embroiled in a war against each other and the lone nation is targeted by the demons. It was during these occasions that the various Gods and Goddesses started giving two things to the races. The First of these things were the Blessings, magical blessings given to the worth for chosen things. The Second of these things were the Summoning rituals, magic rituals that could summon beings from somewhere else, that would be Chosen, by the gods. These beings have almost always come from our world, Earth. It has been centuries since this practice began and the countries of the world have almost always flourished for a time after a Chosen or group of them were Summoned. All of the countries treat the Summoned well, almost like kings or princes in their own right. Well, not all countries, there are some that have treated them almost like slaves, though those countries don’t usually last long. There is one though, that has lasted, for a long time due to their connection to their Patron Deity, the Goddess of Light. They only accept certain types of Summoned and they dote on certain members of the country more than others. Several years ago they performed a summoning, as they were being plagued by overflow from the dungeons. Now they, like the other countries of Aethion, have performed the ritual to fight against the current Demon King, who is said to possess a Blessing. This is a story about Fate, and those that fight against it and those who accept it. In this story the main character(s) do not fight their fate, like those in my other story, rather they embrace it and let it shape them, though that does not mean they are total slaves to it. While there will be similarities to most other Hero sumoning novels, i hope the Mcs abilities and such will make it unique.
