I pay her the money and help her pack up shop.
I help carry. (Bellator)
You’re so nice but, I’m fine. (Old Lady)
She picks up her bags and she leaves. Now I run my own stall I start unpacking everything from my enchanted bags. I unpack the leather armor I made first then I take out the small statues of animals I made. It’s around 1 when I set up shop and no one bought anything. I was about to pack up when I little girl with brown came up.
M-M-Miste-r-r can I bu-y-y th-a-at (Little Girl)
I look at what she was pointing at and it was a statue of a deer.

I pick it up and give it to her. She reaches into her pouch and gives me a copper coin.
B-Bye. (Little Girl)
Bye. (Bellator)
She scurries off *Sigh* I leave everything there and I make a fire to cook I find a piece of metal so I can make a place where I can place my pot on. I take out my pot and leave it there to heat up I go to a nearby stall and by two jugs of water. I return and pour the water into the pot. I started cutting up chunks of meat and put them into the pot. I start cutting vegetables and season the pot. After an hour the pot was letting off a mouthwatering aroma. I take out my bowls and I see people searching for the aroma. They turn to me and they seem conflicted so I take out a bowl and pour some soup for myself. A brave man comes.
Can I buy a bowl? (Brave man)
Here free give back bowl (Bellator)
I give him a bowl and spoon the bowl was half filled with vegetables and meat. He seemed surprised but, accepts and start eating when the food touches his mouth it seems like he hit nirvana. He go back
to his friends and this creates a chain reaction. Up until I ran out I served food I slept in behind the stall today. The brave man came up for food comes again.
Um, can I buy some food? (Brave Man)
Night sell food now sell armor. (Bellator)
Oh ok can I see what you have 2 silver for a leather chest piece man that’s a rip off but, the leather seems sturdy Ok I’ll buy it. (Brave Man)

(Bellator) Perspective
It’s been a two weeks and it seems I over stayed my welcome people swarm me like an angry mob even before I open shop. Over the two weeks I made 2 1/2 Gold coins. I Pick up all my things and place them in my bags. I leaving in the middle of the day and people are staring at me they are starting to huddle around me.
I need armor please sell me some. (Random Person #5)
Yeah. (Random Person #3)
I need to leave soon I start jogging towards the gate but, the stares are getting stronger the more people I pass. When I make it to the gate a guard stops me.
Where do you think you’re going you still need to make us dinner. (Guard)
I pass by him and toss him a sandwich. It hits him square in the face and I run pass the gates. I book it to the forest. People are running after me telling me to stop or shouting weird things. I didn’t bother and when I made half a mile I saw Vulpine.
What took you so long? (Vulpine)
No time hurry up and let’s go home. (Bellator)
I got on her and it takes 1 day to make it back home. There I try the power I have obtained from absorbing the Earth Giant. I try to do weird things to activate it but, no nothing worked. So, I tried my earth magic and my weapons are more refined instead of my bastard sword being crude it actually have a sharp edge. My tower shield is sturdier and has simple designs on it. I take my cowl off and I invoke my rock armor this is my most used spelled so it had a definite shape before, I absorbed the Earth Giant Mastery. When the spelled is finished I look into the mirror and what I saw shocked me I’m wearing a crude looking metal armor.

*Ding* *Spell Evolved [Master Rock Armor] to [Metal Armor]* *[Earth Shield] to [Metal shield] *[Earth Bastard Sword] to [Metal Bastard Sword]
The edges are a bit messy but, I think it is better than my rock armor it offers more defense. I go deeper in the cave to train but, I look a Vulpine she seems sad. I go up to her and start petting her hair starts bringing down her ears in pleasure.
What happened? (Bellator)
I’m lonely I haven’t seen you in two weeks. (Vulpine)
Ok I understand let go hunt for a while. (Bellator)
When we came we were covered in blood and it was night already. I start rubbing her head.
Ok, I go to sleep with you later I need to train right now. (Bellator)
If a wolf can pout I think I just saw it.
Fine. (Vulpine)
I go deeper in the cave where the gravity is heavier and invoke [Metal Armor]. I feel a huge weight hit me I sit down and I start compressing my armor. When the armor becomes too thin I start absorbing more metal into the armor. After a couple of hours I get up and sleep on Vulpine Fur. I repeat my training the next day until I can’t compress it more. I then start molding my armor and start making the crude bumpy parts straight and makes the curves curvy. After I went back and looked into my reflection it felt like it was missing something. I went back and started shaping designs and making it overall more like a monster or demon. The helmet only has eye holes and you can see my eyes
changing color. The design of the helmet looks like a grinning demon, my shoulders have spikes with three different layers of protection, at the beginning of the arm guards have battle-axe heads sticking around my elbows, at the end of the armguard is a 3 claws that are 7 inches (AN.0.17 Meters), in the middle of the chest piece is a wolf head, my leg guards has spikes on my knees also, near my calves are battle-axe heads, and my boots have a giant spike resting at the end of the boot. My tower shield have a definite shape now with a giant spike in it now. My bastard sword in now serrated and has a design. I decide to pay a visit to the city again so I can buy some exotic herbs and spices with my disguise. I get up and holster my bastard sword with a leather strap on my back. I decide to carry my shield I also, take an enchanted bag w/my cowl in it and my bag of money. I call vulpine and she seems excited.
Vulpine I’m going to the city again to buy some stuff. (Bellator)
Her ears droop and she seems to be pouting.
Why would you want to go back to that place? (Vulpine)
I’m going to buy herbs so we can eat even better food she instantly gets a bit happier.
Fine but, bring me something delicious. (Vulpine)
We leave and make it in a day. We are half a mile in the forest and I cast my metal armor. I say my goodbyes and I go back to the city. When I arrive and I wait in line when it my turn the guards ask me if I’ve seen a man that was around my height and wearing a cowl I responded no casually. I paid the toll and went into the city but, everyone seemed on edge like everyone looking for someone but, I shrug it off and go to the market district and buy herbs and spices. The merchants seemed scared when they saw me and relived when I left. In the spur of the moment I accidently entered a cooking contest I’m vs. the royal family chief a famous chief and a bunch of other people trying to win the mysterious prize. The first, day most people are eliminated when it was my turn to cook I used one of the knives I made with metal magic and start cutting. The judges that were judging me seemed to have a gone into their own little lala land. I leave the city and tell Vulpine that I entered a contest and the prize was a rare meat she seemed fine with it. The second day only three people were here the famous chef, the royal chef and me. When people saw me the ridiculed me and started laughing at me when I turned to the laughing it stopped. The judges told me to take off my helmet this time so I complied. When people saw my face they gasped. I then put on my helmet. I thought I’m not that ugly they had a special ingredient for us an elusive A-Rank monster the giant albino horned rabbit. Rabbit meat make good stew so I skinned it and gutted it. I cut the rabbit into different sizes seasoned it and threw it into my pot of boiling water. I cut up my vegetables and I grabbed a bowl when it was ready and gave it to the judges. They said
We’re not judging they are. (Judge)
What I assume to be the royal family comes out and sit right next, to where the judges were and I got to say I thought they would be pigs but, my expectation was shattered they were skinny and gorgeous elves.
The two other chefs got a lot of compliments. Now it my turn I step up with my simple soup and salad.
