Although we got so nice Mana Stones, which are the currency of this place, I decided to make so trades with him, as I was interested in a lot of the stuff he had on his shop.
He was happy to trade with , as he chose a blade and he let pick up whatever I wanted in exchange, he said he would tell whenever I reached the price.
We glanced around the beautiful shop filled with so many things it looked convoluted, all of them looked interesting.
"Alright everyone, pick up whatever you like from here," I said.
"Eh? Really, Drake?!" asked Benladann.
Dregeann and her family were also surprised.
"Yeah, the old man will tell us whenever we are above the price, and if that happens he can grab another item," I said.
"A-Alright then…!"
As everyone started browsing through the store, I decided to look for the things with the most magic density I could detect.
I browsed around, as I found a shield made of a red-colored tal, it emanated a crimson-red essence from within, and it had the sign of a fla in the middle…
"What is this thing?" I asked.
"A shield. But not a normal one. That's a Muspell Shield! I got it from a trade when I went to Midgard, an old Human Soldier traded it to . He got it as spoils of war from a battle his Kingdom had against invading Muspelheim forces. These shields are enhanced with the powerful fire attribute magic that the Fire Giants have, they are more warmonger than us, so they take extra care into enhancing everything they wear for battle. That old man said that every inch of their armor was enhanced with magic… Do you like it?"
"Yeah… I am taking it," I said.
Maybe if I eat this thing, I could get so Fire Attribute-related skills? I couldn't help but wonder that, so I decided to add it to my pile.
"Good choice, though I don't know in what you will be using it, it's a nice shield but everyone here mostly uses ice," said the old man.
"I will find so use to it (Like eating it!)" I said.
After that, my next target was a short spear, looking more like a Javelin, which was covered by a gold material, but it wasn't really gold, it was sothing else. I detected… Light Attribute from it.
"What's this spear?" I asked. The old man knew more than even my Analyze could tell.
"That's a family treasure from a human friend who lost a bet with back in the days. He ended giving up this spear instead of his Lucky Ring. He said that this spear was blessed by an Aesir descendant friend he had long ago, although I didn't believe him. But he was a good man, so I just took it," said Rakasha.
Aesir descendant friend? Aesir… like the actual gods?! Odin and the bunch?
"Are there more descendants of Aesir?" I asked.
"Yeah, there are. Mostly in Midgard. The royal houses and the Kingdoms spread through that land all have their royal family mbers with so blood of the old gods… Although it is extrely thin. It is said that those with strong bloodlines can showcase so of the power of the Aesir, like the ability to bless things… he said that this spear has a lesser blessing infused on it that gave it Light Attribute damage," said Rakasha.
Well, this old man is a fountain of interesting info.
"I will take it too," I said.
"Good choice!"
After that, I continued to browse through, most things lacked enough magic energy, I believe that only things with high magic density can give Skills, so I had to be very picky.
Until I found what seed to be a set of armor. Well, it was only the shoulder pads, the helt, and the chest armor. It seed big enough for an Ice Giant. The armor was dark blue-colored, and it released so magic essence from within, although it was dark and seed quite eerie. It was one of the items that were brought to my attention.
"Is this set of armor cursed or sothing?" I asked.
"Oh, you're a pretty good crafter if you could realize by seeing it! Indeed, that's a set of armor I got super cheap from a guy around 4 years ago. The guy was a Sect mber of this place, he had gotten this armor from the Dungeon, the thing is, it used to be worn by his friend, who died suddenly when he tripped over a trap, afterward, another friend used it and died in so unlucky way as well a few days afterward, and so did a third friend… The guy was devastated. It seems that this armor is cursed and gives misfortune to those that wear it, so he sold it to for just 1000 Mana Stones. I tried dismantling it before to use the magic ore as raw material and make sothing that wasn't cursed, but even for it was hard to do so, the material is kept tightly packed together by the curse runes… So it has been lying there," said Rakasha.
Interesting… a cursed set of armor.
Maybe I should buy it.
And damn, that's a big backstory for this thing… I hope those unfortunate souls can rest in peace.
"Yeah, I'll take it too. I think I can give it so use," I said.
"Oho? Alright then…" laughed the man.
After that, there wasn't anything big that caught my attention, but there were still a lot of little things.
I decided to take so of the concoctions the old man was keeping, such as a Health Potion and a Mana Potion, found inside the dungeon, they can heal imdiately and are said to close wounds and restore mana instantly by a certain amount. They're valuable items, and I wondered if I could drink them and get sothing interesting out of them, so I picked one of each.
