After saying goodbye to the guard, I head to the square to look for the signs. The streets are empty, and you can only see the illumination of the streetlights. It's like arriving in a city at night, but with the difference being that here you don't see any food stalls or night transport.

Once I get to the central square, I find the signs and see that the inn is on the east side of town. I don't even see the other directions; I'm just looking for a place to sleep. Once I'm rested and fed, I'll go to deliver the package to the guild.

I walked for about 5 minutes and saw that the inns were open, so I went to the first one I saw and entered it.

Good evening or good morning. Do you have a room available? Yes, we have the standard room and the high classroom. A standard room is fine, how much would it be? It would be ten copper coins. Here you go.

Your room is number 8, almost at the end of the left corridor.

Thank you.

I grabbed the keys and went to room number 8, took a quick bath, and lay down on the bed with Kawaii and the dark egg.

KIIIIII!!! ヽ(#ﾟДﾟ)ﾉ┌┛ Auch! I'm already up, Kawaii, already up. Just let me change, and we'll eat. KI! (๑-̀ㅂ-́)ง✧

For Kawaii to hit me with her little paws can only mean that it's already very late and she's hungry, I guess she was exhausted from the journey I made last night. In any case, I need to eat. I can't function on an empty stomach.

I went down to reception to ask for the location a restaurant. It turns out that I have that in the central square, there are many restaurants with different specialties, which is good because it encourages diversity of food, profits, and healthy commercial competition.

Once I get to the central square, I find many people going from one side to another. People of all ages are walking while others run in a hurry because they are late, you can tell that the city is busier than the towns, the good thing is that this does not feel bad either.

Ok, stop thinking it's time to eat, so I go to the first restaurant on my right and enter. The restaurant is well lit, and all its tables, chairs, walls, and floor are made of red cedarwood. There were customers there, so I sat at the bar and took a menu. A few seconds later, the waiter came over to take my order.

Good morning. What are you ordering? Good morning. I want a complete breakfast and a bowl of chopped fruits for my pet. Understood, I will bring your order right away.

Barely 3 minutes go by, and they already have my food ready. What a good service!

After finishing my meal and paying the bill, I head to the signage to know which direction the adventurer's guild is to deliver the package. I also want to know what essential areas there are in this city.

Once I am at the signage, I can see the important places in the city. It turns out that it is divided as follows:

North: Academy - City Hall - Gateway

South: Rural area - Agricultural area

East: Inns and sale of groceries (Fruits, vegetables)

West: Adventurer's Guild - Merchant's Guild - Item Shops (Equipment - Items - Materials) - Blacksmith's shop.

Seeing this, I'm heading west to deliver the quest and, in passing, ask for information about class changes, skills, etc. I also want to sell the dark egg and the stuff I got from the dungeon. I also have to go to the smithy and ask them to make a sword with the A-Z Ingots. Gosh, there are too many things to do.

After a long walk, I arrive at the adventurer's guild, which is full of people coming and going. I won't be able to find out anything so let's turn in the quest and come back when it's not crowded.

I place myself in the third row and wait until my turn comes.

Good morning. How can I help you? Good morning, I am coming to deliver a package from the town of Torata. It is about the venom and bile glands of the twin-headed snakes.

I hand over the package and the adventurer's card to confirm the delivery. After a few seconds, he gives it back to me and a silver coin, and I leave here.

As I have no plans to leave today or tomorrow to hunt monsters, I don't bother to look at the quest board. Besides, I have enough money for this one to live without worrying for a long time.

Next, target is the Merchants Guild. I plan to sell the dark egg, the 500 anesthetics, the vinegar, the test tubes, and the scalpels. I could have sold them on the "αβΩ SYSTEM" except for the egg, but I might have to pay some fee for using their service the main reason I don't use it is that I want the Merchants Guild to treat me as a valued customer.

Selling a two-headed snake egg alone is not the same as selling it along with multiple other products. When I was on earth with my food stall, I could notice the preferential treatment they gave to people who buy or sell in large quantities. Due to my lack of money, I could not buy food products in large amounts, so I had to manage to find different suppliers, but it was because I could not expand my business, and I was stuck.

Now I have to seize the moment and make as much profit as possible.

After a few minutes of walking, I finally found the merchants guild. I enter the place and see that it is the same size as the adventurers guild, but its interior looks more like a bank. People have formed lines at the windows, then they go to the back, and then finally they leave the place.

This looks more like a bank than a merchant's guild; maybe it's like that to give the buyer and seller more security. I like that.

There are four separate rows here: Buying - Selling - Trading - Miscellaneous, so I place myself in the fourth row and wait until my turn comes. After waiting for 10 minutes, my turn comes.

Good morning. How can I help you? Good morning, I would like to sell a couple of objects and, if possible, exchange or sell one. Understood, please go to room number 36 and wait until one of our appraisers arrives. Ok.

I go to the back and enter room number 36; after a few minutes, a man enters who looks about 40 years old. His clothes are the same as the Arab sellers, only without a hat.

Good morning, I am Alvar, and I will be your appraiser. Nice to meet you. I am Marco, I would like to sell some products, but there is one in particular that I would like to exchange for another of equal value. Alvar: Understood, the first can be done quickly. As for the second, I will have to look carefully at its value. I understand.

I begin to take out the products I intend to sell; first, I place a sample of the anesthetics, the vinegar, the test tubes, and the scalpel. I will leave the egg for the end.

These are the items I want to sell, I have much more in the inventory, so I would like to know what price I can get for each one. Alvar: I understand. Let me check them.

Alvar begins to review the objects one by one in great detail. I have already seen these objects' prices in the "αβΩ SYSTEM." Still, there are few supplies, so Alvar should know that if there is an increase in certain items in the market, this will cause a slight fluctuation in their prices, so if you know these things, you can get huge profits. Unfortunately, I do not see this market, which is another reason I do not have much interest in using the "αβΩ SYSTEM" to sell things.

Alvar: Sir, for the anesthetic, I can give you 30 silver coins per unit, for the vinegar, two silver, the test tubes would be 50 silver and the scalpel one gold, what do you think? It seems fair to me. It is a deal. Alvar: Perfect. How many do you want to sell?

I take out almost all the inventory I have, leaving a part of the anesthetics.

I have 500 anesthetics, 500 vinegar, 400 test tubes, and 90 scalpels. Alvar: SO MUCH, sir. These are not stolen products, are they? Of course not. They were obtained by legal means.

If looting a dungeon can be considered legal, they are permitted, but I won't reveal that.

Alvar: Understood, calculating all this, it would be a total of 450 gold coins, please wait a moment.

Alvar leaves the room while I stay here, waiting for him to return.

After 2 minutes, he comes back with a bag and sits down again.

Alvar: Here is the money. You can check that everything is there. Thank you.

I put the money in my inventory, and my number goes up to 4-50-42-99. Now I have enough money to live comfortably, but at the same time, it feels a little strange that I got a massive sum of money so fast.

But this thought goes away when I remember that what I did was not expected. After all, not many people sell these things. For example, scalpels and test tubes must be manufactured with some care, so if people want to do it manually, it would be complicated, but if they do it with factories, it is cheaper. Now that there are factories that make them, there must be, but they must be in other places like Planet Machine, and their shipping costs must be high.

Alvar: Do you need anything else, sir? Yes, I would also like to trade this two-headed snake egg for another type of egg or amount.

I take the darkened egg out of my bag to show it to Alvar.

Alvar: A two-headed snake egg? And is it dark in color?

Alvar takes the egg and begins to look at it all over. After looking at it closely, he gently places it on the table.

Alvar: It's a bit complicated to change it. The important thing is that its element is a dark type, which is famous for its ambush capabilities. The problem comes that its species is not very valuable since it's a rank D monster. I can show you the eggs and mounts we have in our headquarters, and if you are interested you can change it, but if it goes over the price you have to cover the difference. Then please show me the options you have. Alvar: Understood, please wait a moment.

Alvar leaves the room and doesn't return for a few minutes. When he comes back, he brings two notebooks 14 cm wide x 21 cm high and 2 cm thick.

Alvar: Sorry for the delay. Here are the eggs and mounts we have available.

Alvar opens the notebook of monster eggs there, and I find a considerable variety. Monster eggs type reptiles, insects, birds, fish, arachnids, and even dinosaurs. You tell me there are dinosaurs in this world.

While I like the idea of going around riding a tyrannosaurus rex, I must control myself and not let my imagination run wild. I have to think strategically. I require an egg that can not only be a mount, but can also attack and defend Kawaii.

I start looking through the eggs and begin separating those that can fulfill my conditions.

After 10 minutes of searching, I have my candidates.

[Lizard Egg - Spiny Tail]: A lizard whose tail is a meter longer than its body, its tail is covered with multiple spikes so hard that it can crush rocks.

[Insect Egg - Hunter Ant]: An ant that can grow up to 1.6 meters long can carry ten times its weight. Its jaws have a firm grip and can climb almost any surface.

[Bird Egg - Fast Sparrow]: A small 2-meter long bird can fly at 60 km/h alone and 40 km/h when carrying a person.

[Spider Egg - Verak]: A tarantula-like spider whose body can grow two meters long, has a paralyzing venom and a strong web, but is very weak to fire and rock attributes.

[Dinosaur Egg - Zarak]: A three-meter long dinosaur that walks on four legs. Its scales are very resistant.

This is about the egg catalog. As for the pet catalog, the only thing that caught my attention was a robot tiger similar to a Zoid, but I can not exchange it because it spends too many energy stones.

These are the options I chose. Please check their value. Alvar: Let's see, of the ones you have chosen, the Verak spider and the swift sparrow exceed the value of your egg, so you can only choose between; the spiny-tailed lizard: the hunter ant, and the Zarak dinosaur. So I can only choose between those three. What are the attributes of these eggs? Alvar: The spiny-tailed lizard is of earth attribute, the hunter ant is of plant and insect attribute, and as for the Zarak dinosaur, it varies since we don't know if the food or the environment influences the acquisition of its attribute, as for its hatching, you can wrap it with a cloth, or you can place it in an incubator, but for that, you will have to go to the Equatorial capital city where the tamer's guild is since they are the only ones that have incubators. Understood, then I want the Zarak dinosaur egg, please. Alvar: Understood. Do you want something else? If possible, I would like you to tell me what it eats and if there is a blacksmith you can recommend to make a sword. Alvar: The Zarak feeds on all kinds of monsters, so you don't have to worry about that, but its incubation time is very long. It takes four months to hatch. Why does it take so long? Alvar: This is the approximate I give you because you will use the cloth to heat the egg. These eggs require constant heat. That's why the mother of these monsters incubates them every day, while the father is in charge of feeding and protecting them. This whole process takes a month. That's why the incubators of the tamer's guild are so popular. I understand, and as for a blacksmith that you recommend. Alvar: I recommend you to see Hakoon, he does custom work, but if you want a weapon for now and of good quality, you can buy it around. Although the "αβΩ SYSTEM" sells swords, they are almost always mass-made. I understand. Alvar: If there is nothing else, wait while I bring Zarak's egg.

It wasn't long after Alvar left when he returned with an egg in a glass case. It was the same size as the two-headed snake, only this one was brown, and its shell felt much harder.

Alvar: Here you go. You can check it if you like. Ok, thanks for everything.

Once all this is over, I leave with a Zarak's egg in my bag and a full wallet. Now I have to go to Hakoon's blacksmith shop to order a sword.

After asking for directions, I finally found Hakoon's blacksmith shop. It looks more like the entrance to a house than a blacksmith shop, with the difference that outside there is a sign with several drawings of weapons that form the word Hakoon.

The door was open, so I pushed it. As I do so, I am greeted by the sound of a bell hanging on the door frame. In front of me, there is a desk made of wood and steel, while on both sides, I see the plans of what appear to be weapons of various shapes.

Hello! Is anybody there?

I wait a few seconds, but I don't get an answer. I guess he must be working in the back, so I have to wait.

As I have nothing to do, I start to look at the plans hanging on the wall. I can't read them, but I can imagine them a little, this one here looks like a sword, but it has four edges on its blade.

Another has what appears to be a compartment in the hilt as if it were a flashlight. Perhaps an energy stone is placed to enhance the sword's power; it looks more like a lightsaber that uses batteries.

There is also a transparent sword made from energy crystals and glass.

There is another one that catches my attention. This one shows a monster and then a sword. As if using its materials to create it, it looks wild-looking.

Hakoon: Do you like it? Uahh, what the fuck!

Without my noticing, a man of a height of 1.25 meters appears. His body looks firm as if he had not missed a single day at the gym, with a white beard and thick eyebrows.

Hakoon: What do you want?

The man worried me flatly as if he cared about my reaction.

Good morning, are you Hakoon? I want to ask you to make me a sword, please. Hakoon: I am Hakoon, any particular design. If possible, I would like it to be easy to use as this one.

I show him the katana-type sword I use. Hakoon takes it to look at it for a few moments and then looks at me as if he is judging me.

Hakoon: Who did you steal it from? I didn't steal it from anyone; I bought it from the "αβΩ" Hakoon: The marks on the blade show that you used it during a fight in a savage manner, and you don't have the characteristics of someone like that. I didn’t steal it! It's like this because of a fight against a monster. I even have the other sword that was destroyed in the middle of the battle.

To show my innocence, I pulled out the sword's hilt with the split blade to Hakoon. I forgot to throw it away in the dungeon, and then I forgot that I had it in the inventory until today.

The moment Hakoon picks up the shattered sword, he looks at it again and then looks at me.

Do you think I'm going to look away just because you look at me so intensely? Well, you're wrong!

After a few moments, Hakoon speaks again.

Hakoon: Ok, I believe you. I can make you a sword, but first, come with me to the back. I need to see what your sword movements are like to create one that suits your form. Ok.

I follow him to the back where his workshop is and then go down some stairs that lead to the basement. Once there, I find a training camp that is three times the size of his house at the top. There is a massive gallery of weapons of all kinds on the sides, and in front, there is a training dummy like the ones in the training camp of the Torata adventurers guild. Out of nowhere, Hakoon begins to speak.

Hakoon: Attack that dummy as if it were alive. As if it were alive? ...ok

I pull out the wooden sword, ready to attack until Hakoon stops me.

Hakoon: What are you doing? Use the katana that you have. But it could make a mess on the walls. Hakoon: Never mind, do it.

With permission to be able to smash the walls without worrying about the consequences, I put away the wooden sword and pulled out the katana-like steel sword.

I get into position and run towards the wooden dummy. Since I have to pretend it's alive, I run in a zigzag as if I was dodging its ranged attacks. After it's in my attack range, I perform a dodge to the left using the inertia of my run to then finish with a Focused Slash at close range.

The impact of my skill ends up destroying the dummy, and part of the wall has a slight indentation from the laido that flew out. Fortunately, it didn't hit the gallery of weapons he has.

So I put my sword away and turned around to see where Hakoon was, but when I came back, I noticed that Hakoon was still looking at the wall and the dummy.

You're not complaining, are you? You told me there was no problem, the crack is tiny, so there's no problem.

After a few seconds of awkward silence, Hakoon opened his mouth again.

Hakoon: ...You Yes? Hakoon: You are unpredictable. ......Eh?
