"Alright, 15 wolf pelts has been packaged. You sure it's fine to drop it at the inn? We can deliver it to your hometown you know?" Said the Fat Lady.
"Yes, it's fine. The inn name is-"
"Don't need that, there's only one inn in this village. Oi Zack! drops this handsome man and his package to the inn. I'll watch your store."
...Honestly, I didn't even know whether or not their relationship was bad or good. Zack the scar merchant only nodded at the fat lady order and took the crate into his truck. At least his truck had better condition than the previous one.
"Oh ma'am, one more thing, I want to order a coat, the size is..." I looked to the fat lady while trying to figure my mother size. "My mother is a thin one, maybe just a little bit thinner than you."
"Oh~ someone has a golden tongue but sorry kid you won't get any discount for that kind of praise, hahaha! just give me the address, I'll send it after my husband finished with it."
"...It's worth a try."
"Hahaha, oh don't forget to pray, in this village we never spoke about family member nor the loved one right before we are going to hunt." Ah, crap. I just raised a flag.
Maybe because of the anxiety showed below my smile or my actions, the fat lady said another word. "Don't worry, my husband is going with you." No. I'm more worry about Herman rather than the monster.
"Woof!" A bark? From out of nowhere a light sounded bark could be heard, I took a look at my surroundings and couldn't find a dog or something like that, though I found traces of blood on the ground and then I felt something was clinging and licking my leg. Slowly I looked my leg and found a three-legged wolf cub, with a bloody bandage on its front right leg; Quarter leg if I must say.

"Oh, you're the one from yesterday?" I said while raising his body up to the air. He wagged his tail and stuck his tongue out, a light and hasty breath could be heard from his mouth in harmony with the dripping sound that came out from his right leg.
"Wait?! aren't you supposed to be in a vet?!"
"Woof!" Barked the cub happily,... right I was the stupid one for trying to speak with a wolf.
I dropped him back to the ground and he totteringly circling around my legs.
"That child seems likes you." Said the fat lady with a smile on her face while watching the cub.
"Eh? Right... can I leave him to you?" I said while picked him up again and handed it over to the fat lady. Suddenly my brain was processing everything at a light speed. "...Actually forget about it."
"...Don't worry, just leave him here, I'm not going to skin him." Said the fat lady.
She read my mind?! "Ahaha... Sorry, can you take him to the vet? I'll pay for his medical charge." I said while handed him over and tried to grab my wallet.
"It's fine, the vet is my best friend. You could pay at a later time."
"Oh... thanks."
Leaving the fat lady and the wolf cub that came out of nowhere, I rode Zack truck back to the inn.

Inn, Dew Room, 8 AM
#Hidden(Client): And that's all that you need to do. I ready anytime now.
#Hidden : Wait a minute, may I ask for an advice about this things?
#Hidden(Client): An advice? Fine, considering there is no damaged pelt, let's see.
#Hidden(Client): You might want to get these features: Daily reward, Mine, and Upgrade. Make sure to get it right in that order.

#Hidden : Another thing, is there a cheap deadly good ranged skill?
#Hidden(Client): Anything with fire, thunder or ice tag is good and don't forget to always renew your protected status and always keep at least 5PP.
I guess that's all. I closed the Social and stood a few meters away from the crate. Let's see
>Request.
>Gathering Request.
>Collecting Wolf Pelts.
>Report.
My phone changed into a camera mode with a square box on the middle. Next was to make sure that everything was perfectly captured inside of that box and pressed the big white circle.
Send: 15 wolf pelts
Received: 3PP >Agree Disagree
After I pressed the agree button and waited for a minute, a notification came in.
Send: 15 wolf pelts
Received: 3PP Send: 3PP
Received: 15 wolf pelts >Agree Disagree
Next was locked and "Holy shit." Even though I had read his explanation, it was still amazing to see this with my own eyes. Layers of square appeared and surrounded the crate and scanned the crate. It moved from the bottom to the top, left to the right, diagonally to the other side. After a minute, the crate slowly turned into a dust and disappeared.
What I received next was a message on the social feature. 3 PP gained. The client contact disappeared and I couldn't help but wonder. Does the crate appear on the other side? How is this thing possible? What happens if I scan a big thing and the other party doesn't have enough room to contain it? Wait this isn't the right time.
Let's recall. First, the wolf is poisoned so I guess the monster has some kind of poison attack. Second, Old Billy said he didn't see anything. It is safe to assume that the monster either invisible or fast.
And once again, the routine of my last few days, I browsed the Skill shop, trying to find the useful skill.

The Verant Chronicles - Book One
The once powerful Verant Empire had been brought to its knees after seven years of civil war. The war maybe over, a new emperor maybe at the helm, but the empire remains broken. Deadly plagues, encroaching monsters, divided political loyalties only scratch the surface of the problems the empire now faces. Highwaymen make the roads unsafe, powerful wizards go unchecked and goblin hordes threaten local towns and villages. Elwin doesn’t want to spend his days as a farmer and dreams of adventure. He, his brother Rith, best friend Emerson and adopted cousin Anna, decide to go out into this world as adventurers hoping to seek fame and fortune just like in the books they read. The empire is at a crossroads as Elwin and his friends experience the aftermath of the war, they must come to terms with what it means to live in the Verant Empire as one of it's citizens. It all begins with an intriguing map sewn into cloth, written in a strange language and depicting a place that doesn’t seem to exist. Elwin and his friends decide to go to the capital city to join the adventurer’s guild and find someone who can translate the map and hopeful recognize the locations depicted. Along the way they encounter lizard creatures, goblins, former soldiers, a bard, druid and a powerful wizard who has his own eye on the map. They meet new friends and create deadly enemies. From great plains to a bustling metropolis, to a town devastated by an earthquake, their world of Gaia has a gritty realism to it and the empire is only a small part of a much large realm. It is a Romanesque world teetering on a renaissance in which Gods, gunpowder, armored knights, griffin riders and magic coexist uneasily. Elwin and his companions drink, they swear, they have sexual encounters, they make mistakes and face serious moral dilemmas at every turn. Planned out to be 30+ chapters in total including a prologue and epilogue. Chapters will be released about twice a week when possible.
