《Serifa-The Goddess of light》1.05-Ice and old man's medicine
Advertisement
Early morning 771 woke up and got ready for his job, he has already packed his blood in vials, and as it was usual, he didn't bother about the drunken men sleeping in the groundfloor, and ignoring them went on his way.
Like usual people were getting ready for their work and like them 771 reached his job at Kofir's early.
When he got there.
"Pretty early...huh!! well I have make you some space... come in and get used to it."
Kofir was not drunk like last time, and there was much more space in the smelting room than it was previously.
"With what should I begin with?"
Kofir knew that 771 was not a man of many words, so following him."You were lucky enough to get a job just after you left."
Kofir went to th eweapons rack and handed him the sword.
"This sword needs enchantment, which kind of... the customer didn't say...!!"
That was all the conversation they had.
He took the sword and went back to the smelting room.
Humming his usual sunshine tune, he began his work.
Like usual he chiseled a simple magic circle on it, and taking out a vial with "ink" he completed his work.
It didn't take more than 1 hour, usually new enchanters like him, take upto 1 day to enchant an object, but his speed was extraordinary.
As for Kofir, he only heard about professional enchanters, who took th esame time as 771, but they all were old.
Ending his work, he drawed the same feather on it, that he had previously drawn on the spear.
The weapon was a hybrid between sword and a sabre, resulting in it's tilted form.
771 poured in some of his mana, and the sword turned into ice, giving it a transparent look, with cold steam rising from it.
-'Perfect'.
His plan was simple, earn enough money to buy the resources he needed, and buy them on the name of Kofir.
And if someone was ready to buy the product of an amature like him, wouldn't they be the perfect customer to sell his stuff to.
He stopped the flow of mana, and placed the sword in a piece of clothe, and wrapped it completely.
"Are ya done?"
"Yes...!! is there any more weapons that need enchanting?"
"Well I will have you enchant some other stuff beside weapons... need to showcase stuff ya know!!"
Kofir handed him a leather armour and another normal sword.
He went back to the smithy, and start working on the sword, and as usual he finished quickly.

But for the armour.
He melted some metal into liquid, and then poured in some of his ink in it, which sizzled when mixed with hot metal.
He then poured it in a machine, which made it into thin strings, the machine was generally used for making chainmail.
771 then using the thread, started to sew a magic circle on the armour. It was of flower design, giving it a very beautiful design.
After completing he poured in some of his mana, and after checking it's functionality, he placed it on the table.
Hearing the door open, Kofir came and saw it oly took 771, 4 hours to complete this time.
"done already.. la... Darrel?"
"Yeah!! is today's work done....?"
"Ha!! well I see you are in a hurry... here take this." Kofir handed him 7 silvers, which made 771 surprised.
"That's what the customer paid me.... it's your first day of work, so take it as a gift... but don't think I will always let you hog all the money."
For the first time, there was a spark in Darrel's eyes, he nodded and after taking the money, he left the shop.
***********************************************************************************
Back on the streets, he searched for particular shops... he was again searching for alchemy shop.
This time he went into different shop, and after reaching the counter.
"Can I have willow tree nector."
The lady sitting in front of him was busy reading a book, but hearing 771's voice, she put it sown and started to asses 771.
"Aren't you a little young to have it my friend?"
Willow nector was a famous medicine, used by old men to have it get up.
"My boss needs it."771 replied to the counter lady's question calmly.
But to the lady on the counter."Sure he does.." She winked at him, telling him, she can't believe an obvious lie like that.
"here....!! it's 8 bronze."
After giving the money, 771 took off again.
This time he went into a different shop, specialising in monsters parts.
On the counter of this shop stood an old man, he looked obviously bored.
An seeing a customer came in to his shop, he got up and asked."What do you want lad."
"Sir can I have a pair of female goblin tongue.. and an orc horn."
The old man was dumbfounded.. he could understand about the horn... but tongue of a female orc.. he generaly throwed it in the dustbin.
"Jeremy... come herre for a second."
A gate opened and a young boy came to the store .. probably the owner's grandon.

"Take care of the customer... I will be back in a pinch."
The old man went to inside and a sound of meat cutting can be heard.
He came back with a pair of green tongue. And then taking a horn from the cases, he packed handed it to 771.
"You are lucky.. you get a fresh tongue.!!"
The old man laughed... his hands were covered in blood, and with a smile on his face, made it more sinister.
"can you have a coblin core too?"
"Son that cost atleast 1 silver.. do you have that much money?"
771 nodded and following his nod, the old man went back to the room, and a sound of hachet and bone crushing can be heard.
This time the old man came.. his face was covered with blood too.. and in his hand a green colored crystal covered in blood.
He cleaned it and then handed it to 771.
"How much in the total.?"
"That will be 2 silvers total, 2 bronze for tongue, 8 for the horn...and as for th ecore.. you already know."
771 gave the old man money.
"You go and play outside."
The little boy, happily exited the shop again.
And 771 also got back on the streets.
THe boy was playing outside the shp with some friends, as for 771, he looked back at the name of the shop.
"Monster Butchers and Son's."
-'Perfect name...'
He went back to the streets going to the poor part of the town.
******************************************************************************************************************
"She didn't know about the princess.... we asked her politely and forcefuly... and only got one thing...!!"
"And what is that?"
"The princess wanted to become an adventurer, and went to wherever is the best place to start her journey."
"Can we pinpoint the location?"
"There are 5 cities in our understanding, as for which city is she in.. we have sent men to check...!!"
"Good!!... she is away from her mad father... it's good time to add her in the great church of Serifa.(Just wanted to say..Serifa is a fruit in india.. that I love to eat, here is the image)
***************************************************************************************************************
Selena, woke in time and got ready for her new sword.
At the afernoon, she walked to Kofir's shop and saw a young man exit it.
He passed by her, but didn't seem to notice her.
Forgetting about him, she went inside and saw Kofir arranging a new armour in an intimated way.
"Uncle Kofir!!"
"aah you came..."
The old dwarf got to the counter, and took out the clothe covered sword.
"Here it is...!!"
She handed him the slip of paper and 4 silver coins. Kofir lied to 771, he hadn't recieved the whole money, but stilll gave 7 silvers to 771.
Kofir handed her the sword, which she unclothed and raised in the air.
-humph!!
She again felt the chaotic energy running through the sword, after entering her energy the sword turned translucent and a gentle cool feeling rose from her hand.
The sword had turned into ice.
"What the hack."
It was not Selena who said this.. but Kofir.
"Can I see that sword."
Selena was confused too. A sword like this was worth a lot than just 7 silvers... it can cost more than a gold coin.
She gave Kofir the sword back, which also checked it by pouring his mana.
He swinged the sword in the air, which created cold air to release from the sword.
"That boy is talented a lot than I thought him to be."
"Boy?...This was done by a boy..?"
"Yeah!! as I told you yesterday.. he came to ask for a job..!! I though if he is good.. he wouldn't have come here.. But I seem to be wrong."
Selena was thinking that the price of her sword could be raised, but instead, Kofir gave the sword back to her.
"Don't worry!!... 7silvers was our deal."
"Thank you..!!"
"Don't thank me.. just keep buying from here.. and I will be happy."
After talking for a while, Selena turned around and left the shop.
She needed to reach the meeting place of violet rose. And meet her new 'would be' friends.
With a sword in tow, she walked through the streets.
Following the address in the note, she reached a bar.
And the name of the bar.
"Violet Rose."
She went inside only to see the whole bar filled with women, there was not a trace of single man in the room.
People in the bar first noticed her, but then continued there conversation.
"Selena... here!!"
Hearing a familiar voice, Selena looked toward the beer counter, there sat Carrie, with her armour off, and drinking beer with some friends.
She went to Carrie.
"Hello, my name is Selena.. I came from Bundlefort village."
Was her introduction, the women sitting beside Carrie started asking questions.
It was the beginning of her journey.
