Cosmic Peak Chapter 87 - Mackren "Asura". Expensive Skill Stones

"Hey, Aalgur. This guest wants to buy so skills. He is a special guest, so be sure to give him so discount," Trion said to the store manager.

Makren looked at Aren and was also surprised to see Aren, "Hey bro, you are from our world, right?"

"Yeah," Aren nodded and said before thinking, 'this guy looks like he is in his late twenties. Hmm, he should be on the world leaderboard considering his status. His path also sounds powerful but don't know what it can do from its na alone.'

"Oh, so you are an otherworlder?" Trion said in surprise while looking at Aren, "we have no problem with otherworlder, but so people don't like them, so be careful. Anyway, you can tell the manager about what rank of skill you want. I'll be waiting outside now since I have no business here."

"Sure," Aren nodded as he saw Trion leaving. He then turned to the manager and said with a cough, "Ahem, I might not be able to afford the skill right now, but I still want to look at S-rank skills. More specifically, I want concealnt-type skills."

The manager nodded with a smile as he went inside the store to get S rank skill stones.

"Hey bro, wh-"

"Aren," Aren smiled and said, "you can call Aren."

"Aren, hahaha. You can call Makren," Makren said with a laugh before he grinned, "by the way, my nickna is Asura, and I am currently ranked 9th on the World leaderboard. What about you?"

Aren shook his head with a weak smile and said, "I am not that strong. My na is not in the top 100 of the world leaderboard."

"By the way, is your path power about controlling things?" Makren said as he pointed at the sword and chakram, "they look different than normal weapons. They are more like sci-fi weapons, hahaha."

"Yeah, what about your path's power? If you don't mind telling ," Aren nodded and asked with curiosity.

Makren said with a confident smile, "my path is called Elzardic Asunder. Hehe, watch ."

After he finished speaking, Makren transford as a red and black aura covered him. His entire body was filled with red and black vein-like patterns.

A second later, Aren saw a devilish pair of black-red wings appearing behind Makren's back, two curved black-red horns grew on his head, and demonic armor with black and red patterns coated his body. There were also demonic shoulder plates with two holes that lit up black-red flas along with the patterns on his armor.

"This is the first form, Darkin Elzard. I get different skills in this form, and my normal skills are also enhanced with Darkin Elzard's power. I get access to unique energy as well. Recently when I leveled up my path to level 8, I unlocked my second form with talent point as well, and it's called Qeutza Elzard, " Makren spoke with a grin.

Looking at that, Aren couldn't help but envy him because he looked so DAMN COOL and powerful as well.

"That's...so powerful path you got right there," Aren said as his lips twitched a bit. Internally, he thought, 'my path is powerful as well. Mhmm, it is. I can make gears, and I can make a cool full body armor gear in the future.'

"By the way, If you want to earn gold fast, you should go to the Guildhall here and accept so quests. I grind out for gold here to buy skills, and now I am going to a dungeon that's twenty kiloters from here," Makren said as he patted Aren's shoulder.

"Hahaha, I am a solo-type of guy, and that dungeon is really dangerous, so I can't carry you there; otherwise I would," Makren said with a laugh before he spoke with confidence, "anyway, we can definitely save our world from despair, so let's work hard. Alright, see you later if there's a chance."

Aren nodded as he saw Makren leaving the store.

"Optimistic guy. Well, that's good as long as he remains cautious as well," Aren muttered and waited for two more minutes before the store manager arrived with three boxes.

He put the box on the table and said, "I have only three S rank concealnt-type skills."

"This first one is skill, and it's the most expensive one, at 15,600 gold. It will make you invisible to the naked eye, but it only works in the day and places with bright lights. " the store manager pointed at the first box.

He then pointed at the second box and said, "the second one is skill if possible. After I collect enough gold coins, I will co to buy it."

The store manager thought for a mont and nodded with a smile, "I don't want gold coins in advance, but I will book it for ten days. Today is Axel 11th date, so the deadline will be Axel 22th. If soone cos to buy that skill stone, I will tell them about the deadline as well."

"Thanks. I will definitely buy it before the deadline," Aren said with a smile before he left the shop.

After leaving the shop, he approached Trion and said, "can you give access to that tower over there? I want to watch the battle happening at the corners of this capital town."

Trion looked at the tower before he spoke with so speechlessness, "no offense, but from your aura, you are a mortal lifeform, and I doubt you can observe the corners from the town with your current eyesight."

Aren looked at the Trion and smiled as his eyes pulsed with a blue glow, "my eyes are a bit special. All corners from this central tower are approx 6 kiloters long, which is also the limit of my eyesight."

As long as it was within 6 kiloters, Aren could see everything clearly and even zoom in on specific parts by focusing.

"Alright, follow ," Trion said as he led Aren towards the central tower, which was also the tallest tower in this town.

While walking, Aren sighed in disappointnt at not receiving any quest about the ongoing war, 'maybe it didn't appear since I am not involved in it, or not near the front-line? However, I can't risk going to the front lines. I almost died just recently, and it was a terrible feeling.'

'Anyway, I can do other things while observing the battle.. Also, since I inford Cerity and others about this war, then if the kingdom successfully defended itself, I might get so kind of reward as well.'
