With nothing to do on the way to Arch city I began to look through the space ring of ‘Mr sparkle’ and began to sort the stored items into categories. Weapons, useful items that I could use, Survival, Money, and objects I can sell. The following items are as follows.

Weapons:

A broadsword

A small dagger

A large war hammer

Useful items I can use:

38 monster crystals

52 beast cores

A map of the planes and the green leaf forest

A higher quality flame gem

Survival:

30 days worth of food and water

Two spare sets of clothes

A camping tent with a sleeping bag

Money:

6G

75S

32C

Objects I can sell:

My old space ring

A magic book that I can't use [Appears to be the light magic he used]

A proposal ring [Feel a little bad now]

Some animal and beast pelts

The first thing I do with my new loot is, break apart the weapons into smaller pieces and absorb them into my body to acquire the minerals to strengthen my body. I then proceeded to inspect the higher quality flame gem. But I was disappointed when I discovered that I could not use it. It seems that a person needs to be able to supply the gem with magic for it to produce a flame. [It appears that I can only use the lower quality elemental gems which produce smaller effects but don't need magic to work. Come to think of it I won't be able to use the shield gem I acquired before I entered the forest. I may as well sell them both.] Mentally moving both gems to the objects I can sell pile, I then begin to memories the map before moving it to the sell pile.

Objects I can sell:

My old space ring

A magic book that I can't use

A proposal ring

Some animal and beast pelts

Map

Higher quality flame gem

Shield gem

These Items should give me some good revenue which I can use to augment my body, by improving my claw’s fire alloy, air pistons etc.

Now that I have finished sorting the loot I begin to become bored once again so I focus on the hidden passenger who I believe to be a stowaway. Their mid feels familiar to me which is confusing considering I have killed and eaten most of the people I have met. Going deeper into the carriage I am sat in I walk over to a crate where I believe the person to be. The person also appears to be bord and uncomfortable sitting inside of the crate so I give it a knock to get their attention.

“Hello in there, you are properly as bored as I am so you want to come out and perhaps we can make this more interesting.”

The stowaway feels fear but does not move.

“Alright then suit yourself.”

[How boring, may as well leave him/her to it. They may be interesting in the future.]

With nothing better to do, I went back to my spot and sit down. When our journey started I decided to go into one of the empty carriages away from everyone else in case I needed to do some experimenting so I was alone in this storage carriage. But now that I had improved my Strength, speed, reflexes, and senses as well as having gone through ‘Mr sparkles’ space ring I was now bored.

With my free time I improved Shades body as best I could without getting in the way of her growing process. While I was improving Shade a small insect resembling a fly started to buzz around my head. In my annoyance, I caught it in my spare hand but before I kill it I have an idea.

Taking inspiration from the mosquito from Pauls world I begin to reform and change the small insect. I dedicate most of the body to high reactions and speed while covering it with fine hairs that can detect changes in the air. This should increase its survivability while delivering its special package. I have given the now mutated fly/mosquito the same strain of virus that I gave ‘patient zero’ and with its long needle-like mouth it should be able to deliver the virus with relative ease.

The plan is to release the virus once I become an adventure in the city. With me being able to easily deal with the virus I will be able to cure the people infected people who will cause chaos and panic. With my non lethal solution, I should be given easy quests and missions to deal with the infected allowing me to progress in the adventurer ranks quickly in a short amount of time.

Becoming an adventurer is the best cause of action for me. it will allow is to have access to their information network, letting me know where the most powerful creatures are. Being an adventurer will also allow me to get paid while I travel and become stronger.

Rising in rank will allow me to do harder missions which aline with my goals. The harder missions will put me in interesting and new habitats which will allow me to explore the world. The harder missions will also allow me to become stronger as I fight and discover new techniques and abilities. All of which will allow me to destroy the church easier and have fun while doing it, two dragons with one boulder and all that.

But before any of that, I want to make some money by selling the shit I don't need so I can augment my body. I then want to find and destroy anyone related to the slavers, possibly even find Dave and/or like-minded people to destroy the church. Once all that is done I will become an adventurer and rise up the ranks.

The adventure rankings are fairly simple (I hope). They are as follows from highest to lowest:

Diamond

Gold

Silver

S+

S

S-

A+

A

A-

B+

B

B-

C+

C

C-

The letters go to F- with the + and - for each letter (Could not be asked to do all that). Each letter is a rank while a + and - is a sub-rank. An adventurer needs to complete 8 missions before they can go up a sub-level. Once an adventurer has completed 24 missions they have to challenge a person from an above ranking to a dual where they need to tie or win the fight to raise in rank.

Missions from the rank below count as 1 Mission. Missions from a adventurers rank counts as 2. While a mission from the above ranking counts as 3. An adventurer can only take a mission one rank above their own. (Let me know if this is confusing and I will try to explain it better or change it.)

With the favor of the two merchants, the Grey beak tribe and the stoneheart noble family, I have been informed that I should be put up to the C- rank when I join. They have given me tokens to prove their favor. Sadly or luckily no Noble family or tribe can influence the Adventurers guild to a high degree so C- is the highest anyone can fast track too.

Being at the C- rank I will only have to do 8 missions of the B rank until I have to challenge a B rank to raise my own rank. This should not take too long with my strength and the virus.

Before my mind can drift anymore The carriage driver yells back at me “Willbreaker, we have reached Arch city get ready!”

[Finally, the real fun can begin.]
