While the old man took a look around the inside of the carriage to make sure that they seriously had whatever materials they could get while keeping them sorted in a way that they couldn’t break during the transport, and even making sure that the parts of the Spider’s Carapace that was bound to the roof couldn’t fall off, Eisen opened the notifications that had appeared last ti that he didn’t look at then.

"Huh, interesting..." The old man muttered to himself, greatly appreciating the effects of the ’Lone Wolf’ Title that may co in useful at so point. And after Eisen increased each of his five basic stats by two points with the new Stat Points, he got by leveling up, and he took a closer look at the last two notifications.
As he didn’t understand the last notification, he concentrated on the one about his wings. "They are able to carry my weight slightly?" Eisen wondered, before stepping to the side and activating his demonic transformation, in response to which Stahl looked at him confused.
"Grampa, what are you doing? Didn’t you say we should get going?" He asked, and Eisen swiftly nodded. "Yeah, I know, I just want to try sothing out first. It only takes a few monts, don’t worry." The old man responded, before concentrating on his wings and having them spread out behind him, which covered a quite large area, which is why he had to step back a little bit further.
Then, Eisen swiftly pushed them down and could then, for just a few monts, feel his body beco so much lighter. With a grin, the old man once more spread his wings out and lightly kneeled, before stretching his legs out instantly while at the sa ti pushing his wings down again, allowing him to jump ten ters into the air!
Due to his, at this point, inhuman strength coming from his legs, he was already able to jump much higher than usual. But now, he truly reached an impossible height. But whatever goes up has to co down sooner or later, and for Eisen, it was sooner than later.
The ten ters that he was in the air were quickly crossed again, but just before Eisen hit the ground, he once more pushed his wings down to at least sowhat break his fall. The dust from the ground spread around the area while Eisen deactivated his demonic transformation and stepped back toward the group of players, that was watching the whole scene with a mixture of utter, complete confusion and excitent.
"Holy... I wish my elent was transformative like that!" Jyuuk exclaid excitedly, looking at Eisen with jealousy in his eyes before the old man chuckled. "Don’t worry, if you want wings, I’m sure you can get them sohow. Who knows, maybe you can borrow Aotori or Akatori’s sooner or later?" He laughed, and Jyuuk nodded his head imdiately.
"Wait, you’re right! I heard that Beast Connection could do sothing like that at later ranks... So surely Minion Connection can as well!" Jyuuk yelled out with a bright smile, and Eisen nodded his head before looking at Evalia, who also seed sowhat interested in it.
"Out of the originals, you’d probably be the only one besides that can do that directly with her elent. Brody doesn’t have an elent at all, but maybe he can do it with his Energy sooner or later as well, but that’s uncertain. Xenia might be able to ask spirits to help her with that, and as we just established, Jyuuk might be able to do that with Minion Connection. But you can probably just use your magic paint to form wings, right?" Eisen suggested, and Evalia slowly nodded, thinking about it a little bit.
"I’ll figure that out on the ship later, but for now I think I draw a good amount of attention, at least amongst players, already." She laughed, and Eisen nodded his head with a laugh.
"Good point might be better not to try that out yet. And I’ll make you the mask and ’cloak’ before we get to the next town, don’t worry." Eisen promised before the group was interrupted by Samurai, who just heard sothing pretty interesting. He was already freaking out over the fact that you could actually fly like this in the ga, but there was sothing else as well.
"Did you just say ship? As in, that giant ship in town with the Dragon Statue being mounted to it at the front?" The strear asked confused, and Evalia nodded her head. "You got it, that’s our ship. We’ll be on there for a little while soon." She answered with a wink, although that wink wasn’t directed at Samurai, but rather Stahl, who Evalia noticed to be in a pretty rough mood at the mont.
Either way, Samurai didn’t notice, "That huge ship is yours, how much did you pay for sothing like that?! That’s insane!" He exclaid, and Eisen looked over toward Kor, who nodded his head and went through the notes he took, flipping through until he found the relevant page in his notebook.
"Ah, we spent about... 50 Gold on that. Well, the ship alone, we then also had to spend another 20 gold so for everything else in regards to supplies, materials, bedding, and so on." Kor answered, and Eisen moved his fingers through his beard.
"How did we actually get that much money?" Eisen asked with a bit of surprise, and Kor just shrugged. "I told you how I made a few deals here and there outside of selling what you made, right? We got about 10 Gold coins in profits from that so far. I set up an account at the rchant’s Guild, and I get money transfers into it. On our way back, I’ll check-in and grab any money we might need at the Guild in town, just in case. Then, your items always ended up being sold in the upper silver range, especially on busy days when people were trying to ’compete’ for an item that they especially wanted or needed. That alone would have already been enough for the materials, but the others donated so funds as well." Kor explained as he pointed to the others, who were all smirking a little bit, and Eisen began to laugh.
"Well, I didn’t know about that. Thanks for the help, you four. And good job on keeping up with everything, Kor." He said, but once more, Samurai interrupted them.
"Wait, we’re talking about Gold coins, right? The thing that I’ve ’literally’ never even seen before? Those gold coins?" Samurai asked, confused, and Kor nodded his head.
"Yup, Gold Coins. If we should compare it to real-world money, coppers are in the cent range, silvers in the dollar range, and gold in the hundred-dollar range. Of course, that’s not directly accurate, because you can get a lot of stuff for a silver coin, but for the gold coins, it should be sowhat accurate? Oh, and so that you know, we didn’t buy the ship, Eisen made it. Otherwise, we maybe would have been cutting it close with a Crystal Coin." Kor said with a wry smile, and imdiately, Samurai’s jaw dropped.
"I wasn’t aware you could make ships like that here... But seriously, a Crystal Coin? Isn’t that like the highest currency there is?"
"Actually, it’s not," Kor said as he scratched his cheek, and now everyone, and not only Samurai, was confused and looking at the rchant, who swiftly chose to explain. "There’s another stage to it... The upper stage is usually only used in country-to-country deals, so most common people don’t know about it. The currency advancents go: Copper, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Crystal, Black-Copper, Mythril, White-Gold, Matikum, and then at last Mana. The worth isn’t the most important thing with coins, but the worth that the gas give them. Like, you can buy a ton of Black Copper with a single gold coin, but a Black Copper coin is worth much, much more than a Gold coin. It’s a system implented by the God of Trade." Kor explained, and then scratched his cheek as he was feeling awkward because everyone was looking at him.
"Huh... Is that so?" Eisen muttered to himself and crossed his arms. "Anyway, Samurai, Kor was talking about the price of the wood that we got at a heavily reduced price. We then turned that wood into the ship. Anyway, now, we have to get going, we should set off before night." Eisen suggested, and the others nodded their heads before the old man jumped on the front bench of the carriage to drive it to town, while everyone else got ready and sowhat split off into a few groups or pairs, with Brody, Xenia, and Jyuuk acting as the defensive unit against any monsters that may think to attack them, while Kor joined Eisen on the bench.
"So? Want to tell sothing?" Eisen asked after a little while, noticing that the rchant was a bit fidgety before Kor nodded his head slowly.
"I’m done with the quest." He said with a wry smile, and Eisen looked at him in surprise. "And what’s bad about that? I thought you were excited to finish it." Eisen pointed out, and Kor nodded his head.
"I an, I kinda am, but I’m just not satisfied with what I made in the end. Just a few super boring effects, really." He sighed loudly, before taking the ten packs of each ten ’Coins of Fate’ out of his backpack and held them in front of Eisen, who swiftly took a look at them to confirm they were all unique to each other.
Slowly, he then nodded his head. "Don’t worry, Kor. Do you think I was able to make things like this carriage or the ship from day one? I spent a few years just making tables and chairs, or even simple baseball bats. It all starts boring, but sooner or later, you can use your imagination to make cool things. Now, you’ve done well. You finished the quest with flying colors." He said with a grin, before so notifications appeared in front of both Kor and Eisen, although Eisen received on that was not just a notification telling him about the completed quest.
--
[Kor is on his path to acquiring a Unique Occupation subordinate to the rchant Occupation. To get there, he now just has to make himself comfortable with the ’Coins of Fate’ that he had created]
--
Surprised, Eisen looked at the notification and then to the young rchant. ’This is probably sothing I can see because I started guiding him, right? Is that it?’ He thought to himself before Kor smiled at him. "Nice, thanks! But... what do I do with all of these now?" The young rchant asked with a wry smile, before Eisen chuckled at him, already having an idea what the notification might an. And as he figured out how to create hidden rewards when creating quests, as Eisen did during the little mock-quest he gave to Samurai, he chose to provide Kor with a small surprise.
"That’s quite simple, isn’t it? Use all of those coins, one after another. Concentrate on the actual enchantnts and the actual movent of the coin as well. When you’re done with that, tell ." He said, and soon, Kor’s eyes concentrated on sothing else, the second quest that he just received from Eisen.

[Quest given to Kor]
