They arrived in a fairly huge town at around lunchti but Anton didn’t bother to learn its na since they would only stay for the rest of the day and a night. They rented a few rooms in an inn and the rest would stay in the caravan.
After lunch, the first thing that Anton did was have Charsi repair each carriage and cart and that ant that the people needed to unload all of the items inside. The repair process of the carriages and carts took him about an hour and after that, he healed the horses using his three auras to make sure that all the animals were in peak condition. After the animals were healed, he asked Anders for everyone to line up so they could heal everyone to make sure that everyone was also healthy and in peak condition. The healing process took him very little ti and after that, Anders and Nemina went to the town rchants to sell so items so they could earn gold and the others got busy buying the things they would need on the road.
The town looked exotic to Anton. The old streets were paved with bricks. The buildings are made of wood and stone and surrounded by trees and flowers. Everything looked so dieval but pretty and was impressed that Anton didn’t sll any of those stinks associated with a dieval town like shit, rotten food, and unwashed bodies.
Leminthor was also the sa. The stink that Anton was expecting wasn’t there and he rembered that this world was not the dieval era of his old world but another world governed by magic.
Of course, there were so slls that a city couldn’t avoid but even the modern cities on Earth had those.
Anton would have liked to explore the town that stood like a beautiful gem in a valley but he was feeling this apprehension that there was no more ti left since the undead were catching up to them. He felt that the apprehension could only be relieved if he focused on playing the ga and leveling up so he could beco more powerful so he planned to spend his ti playing the ga and continuing his research on enchanting items.
Once all of his responsibilities in the caravan were done, Anton spent the rest of the day in the room they rented in the inn playing the ga and researching enchanting while Anna and her maids, Lunelle, Devon, and Frederick explored the town.
Anton started playing the Hell Difficulty of his ga Diablo II in the original difficulty and in a couple of hours managed to save Deckard Cain from the old town of Tristram. He didn’t utilize the console command Player X yet since he thought that he would only do that once he completed the last difficulty and started grinding for levels and items. After that, he went outside the Rogue Encampnt to continue his research in enchanting since he knew how useful the ability would be once he was successful in the said research. He just wished that he was allowed to cast spells inside a safe zone since there were tis when he was interrupted by monsters spawning near him. At least when he set up a table for research near the gate of the encampnt, monsters spawning near it would happen rarely.
Anton could have done his research in the real world but there were so consequences in his research like the need to cast his spells several tis that would destroy the area. He prepared several wooden tablets where he could etch the mana pathway construction following the mana pathway design of the Enchant spell of the fire tree.
The mana pathway of the spells resembled the runes that make up a runeword but after inspecting the mana pathway design of all his spells which admittedly he only skimd a little due to the lack of ti, he didn’t find any mana pathway of any spell that was one hundred percent similar to existing runes in Diablo II.
He did start to note down the mana pathway of his spells and in his notes, he already recorded a few of the spells' mana pathways like the one for Fire Bolt, Fire Ball, Fire Wall, Enchant, Hydra, Ice Bolt, Frozen Armor, Ice Blast, Glacial Spike, Blizzard, and Frozen Orb.
The mana pathway of the spells that Anton recorded were the spells that he extensively studied to be able to expertly manipulate their mana.
Anton spent another couple of hours etching and combining the mana pathways of different spells for experintation on the wooden tablet. He first combined the pathway for the spell Enchant that he thought indicated the ability of the spell to be attached to an item and added the duration based on the spell level and removed the ones that he thought were the pathway for the fire elents. That three pathways alone, attaching a spell to an item, duration based on level, and fire elents took him several days of trial and error before he successfully identified and recorded them.
He then added the pathway for Frozen Orb on the wooden tablet that has the pathway for attaching a spell to an item and duration based on spell level or in this case based on the quantity of mana. Specifically, he added the spell pathway for Frozen Orb’s structure and the mana pathway for the ice elent.
When Anton activated the spell on the wooded board, a Frozen Orb appeared and floated on top of it then suddenly it exploded causing deadly Ice Bolt to spew in the surrounding. It was clearly a failure but Anton felt that he was almost there but since it was already evening, he exited the ga and joined his family for dinner.
While they were eating Anders inford him that managed to sell so items in the town and earned so coins and they also managed to purchase so items that he needed to repair. Anton told his father that he would repair it at a later ti since he was busy ditating because he was on the verge of a breakthrough.
Anders nodded his understanding and there was also so expectation on his face since whenever Anton talked about being on the verge of a breakthrough, he would learn new spells.
“Do you know what spell you will learn next?” Anna asked.
“A way to lower the temperature of a room but it would take so more ti before I learn it.”
“How do you learn spells by just ditating,” Frederick couldn’t help but ask and of course, since Anton didn’t have an answer for the mage, he just shrugged.
“So did you find anything special in the town?” Anton asked his sister.
“Not very much but we did find an old bookstore. We purchased a lot of books and it cost
a lot of coins and now I don’t have any more and Father wouldn’t give
more,” Anna complained.
“It’s ti for you to learn how to handle finances wisely. We’re still not that rich that we can afford to let you waste coins!” Anders scolded his daughter who kept on pouting.
“At least, you now have several books to keep you entertained,” Anton consoled his sister.
Anna then asked if they could watch sothing on his crystal globe spell but he told his sister that he would need to ditate since as he said he was on the verge of a breakthrough.
