"Hey Asimi, how about we go and see about becoming some kind of crafter?" The silver fox looked up at her from his bed, as if he were thinking, before he slowly uncurled from his ball and stretched. Dynasty was taking that as the answer of 'yeah, lets do this'. The only problem was, Dynasty didn't exactly know what craft she wanted to go into. Perhaps she should look around all the different stores that were around. That might help her figure out what it was that she wanted to do? She honestly didn't even know if that was going to work.

Perhaps, she should just listen to what all the different trainers had to say? That might help sway her to figure out which one she wanted to join the profession of. Of course, that was just pure speculation as well. She knew that she wasn't going to become a performer right now, she couldn't sing nor play an instrument to save her life. So she was just going to pass right by that one as it was. She and Asimi soon left their inn room and started to walk the town, listening.

She had been walking and listening to everything that she could hear about the different professions, at least, until she heard something else. Well, someone else, and they were talking directly to Dynasty. "Hey you wanna learn how to cheat the sy- I mean make good sales? Follow me." She stopped in her tracks and looked at this kid, "Sure kid.". He had to be about the same age as her youngest sibling, that was kind of heartbreaking in a way. But, she was curious, so she followed him to a small shop.

She started to look around, noticing right away at how unorganized this shop was. That was alright, it wasn't like this was her shop, so she didn't need to really worry. She knew one thing though, just by looking at what this kid had in his shop, she knew that this was the profession that she wanted. She just needed to figure out how to become a merchant, but she was certain that this kid was about to tell her that.

"If you really want to learn how to be a Merchant, you have to be crafty and smart for this. You best know what you are doing. I'll show you how to identify an it- No! I'm all out." Well, this had been starting off on a good note. Now, it wasn't. She watched the kid for a moment, "How can I help you?" That was when the child stopped his pouting, a smile on his face as he turned to look at her. "Go get me some more, around 3, so I can show you how to do this." She was realizing something else about this child, he was a bit of a bossy child.

She wasn't mad about that, but it also wasn't something that she was used to. It was a bit odd for her to be bossed around by someone who was the same age as her youngest sibling. But, if getting the kid some items was going to help her learn how to do this profession, then she really had nothing to lose. "Will do, be back in a bit then." She looked at Asimi, who had stopped at the shop's entrance, and smiled. "Come on Asimi, let's go find some items to identify." Asimi's fox form soon changed into that of a ring, and she quickly put it on. This was going to be simple, she just had that feeling.

[Dynasty 0]

So, she just had to walk around out here, and attempt to find some items to identify? That really didn't seem too hard when she really thought about it. But, at the same time, she's had some really horrible luck when it comes to finding things. In fact, she was already having a minor flash back to when she had to go and find Asimi. But, she found him by the end of the day, so it wasn't like it had been such a bad thing. Besides, training the fox had been harder than anything. But, she still wasn't going to complain really.

She had fun while doing it, and she learned some things about how she needed to work her build. It was now just a matter of time to gaining the skill points to being able to upgrade the things that she wanted. She was certain that she'd get to where she wants to be at some point, it just might take her a little longer than she truly wanted. Unless she really went all out of spammed all the quests that she could. That was a possibility that she could do. So far, she's done all of her quests alone, what was a few hundred more?

The walk at least didn't seem to be horrible. It was a nice day out, and she didn't seem to spot a single monster along the way. That was pretty interesting when one was to think about it. Perhaps it was because she was able to just easily avoid things now. Or, she might just not be looking close enough to find what it was that she wanted to fight. That was always a grand possibility when she thought about it. Perhaps, just perhaps, a fight will help make this go by a little easier and faster? It was worth a shot really.

But right now, something sparkly caught her eye. Walking over to the item that she spotted sparkling at her, she noticed that it was an unidentified uncommon weapon. This would do perfectly for her quest right now. Because of that fact, she picked the item up and put it into her inventory. That meant that she only needed to find three more items.

Actually, speaking of things to kill, Dynasty noticed that a wolf was starting to inch toward her as she pocketed the weapon that she found. That was alright, she didn't mind the fight that this was about to turn into. Even if it took a bit, she had her accuracy now, so it wasn't like it was going to be her missing all the time now. She quickly unsheathed her weapon, it was already starting to turn pink, readying her sword art. The moment that she charged the wolf, she struck out, and instantly hit the wolf. She dealt some decent damage to it, and as she started to back away, she noticed that the wolf was getting ready to attack. So, she simply jumped to the right, and was able to easily dodge the attack that came from the wolf. Having this extra accuracy was going to do wonders, and she could already see this.

So, her first attack hit. That was a glorious thing, because that meant that she was already one step closer to this fight being over. But, of course, it wasn't over yet, so she had to watch herself. She didn't need to get too overconfident, she still had bruises from her last fight. Okay, the bruises couldn't be seen, but that was because they were on her ego. But, that was in the past, that wasn't something that she needed to worry about right now. Instead, right now, she needed to worry about the wolf that was in front of her.

She charged the wolf once more, her swords blade turning pink again, just before she hit the wolf. She watched as the wolf's health dropped some more, only to feel a swipe of the wolf's claws against her leg. Retaliation hurt, but at least, it hurt the wolf as well. She couldn't wait until she got better gear, that was still being waited on, but perfection took a while. So she was happy with being patient for her new gear.

So close, this fight could be over in a matter of minutes if she was lucky. But then, she didn't have her luck trinket equipped, so she doubted that she was going to end up being that lucky in the long run. But, that was still alright by her. She focused on the wolf, and as she went to hit it, the beast tried to move. Thankfully, she caught that in time and was able to change her direction as well, still hitting the wolf in turn. Of course, the wolf moved back a few paces before leaping at her, attaching itself to her arm. She took her shield and shoved the wolf off. The wolf's health was now in the red, and she was going to count this as a blessing. She really was glad that she had trained Asimi to be a protector at this rate, but at the same time, she really did wish that she had more damage.

She needed a moment to breathe. She actually didn't even notice how much she had been moving, until she felt a cramp in her leg. That hurt like all holy heck, and she really wished that it would just stop. Of course, by the time that the cramp had lessened to where she could move, it was just in time to avoid becoming a chew toy for the wolf again. So, that round was done and over with, but at least she didn't take more damage. She just needed to focus on dealing that last of the damage that she needed to hit the wolf with. Of course, that was easier said than done at this point, but she was still going to try. There was no giving up on fights anymore, she was able to do this, and she knew that very well by this point now. She just needed to focus.

She kept a single mantra in her head right now, one more hit. She knew that that was all it was going to take, a single hit to the wolf, whether it be from her, or her thorns enhancement. Either way, she was going to be prepared for either outcome, because it was going to result in the end of this fight. So, she kept a close eye on her opponent, her sword's blade slowly turning pink as she charged her sword art once more.

Once she was certain that she had the perfect opening, she went to hit the wolf, and her sword sliced right through it. The wolf turned into a cloud of red pixels, and she had loot thrown into her inventory. She smiled as she sheathed her weapon, this fight went a million times better than the past ones that she had in the past. That was a thought that brought a bigger smile to her face.

The wolf was dead, and she had a feeling that the items that she got from the wolf weren't going to work for the quest. So she was going to take the time to hunt down the other two items that she needed for the quest. So, she started to walk again, and she kept an eye out for anything that might even resemble the kind of item that she needed. The walk was peaceful after that fight, and it was something that she didn't mind at all.

As she walked closer to the entrance of a forest, she noticed something that had caught her eye. She walked over and picked the item up, it being another unidentified uncommon weapon. This would do perfectly for her quest, so she pocketed and decided that turning around was going to be the best option. So, she turned around and slowly started to head back to town, still keeping an eye out for another item for her quest.

One more item, and she can go back to town and officially give these to the kid. She did wonder though how someone so young became a master merchant so fast. It was kind of interesting and intriguing at the same time. At least this quest didn't seem to be so boring and obnoxious as the other ones that she had done. She got a ping on her HUD and looked at it. Oh, her order from Koga was done. That's great, she'd pick those up after this quest.

Speaking of orders being done, she walked over to another item that caught her eye. Walking over, she picked up the item, pocketing that unidentified uncommon weapon. That was a good thing, because it meant that she didn't need to worry about hunting down any more items for this quest. So, with her items, she turned fully toward town, and she started to walk once more. This was going to be a good day.

What a better way to walk back to town then with this happy skip in her step basically. She had all the things that she needed for her quest, and she had even managed to kill a monster without true worry. This was something that she could easily get behind if it was to happen all the time. Plus, her order was done. There are so many things to make this all just happy. She put her hand in her pocket and felt Asimi sleeping, so she left the little fox alone, not wanting to disturb him.

Dynasty kept her pace even as she walked, mainly because she was in no true rush right now. With how bossy that kid was, she was going to need to prepare herself for that after all. She wasn't going to make a big fuss out of a bossy child, but she also wasn't going to be completely comfortable being bossed around by the kid.

She was soon right back into the safe zone, feeling like a hundred buck at the moment. Perhaps that was because she felt like she could do anything right now. It felt nice to be able to feel like that again. Perhaps this was just the kind of confidence boost that she needed. Even if it wasn't, she was just happy to have not taken all day to find the things that she needed for this quest today. That was better than how she had been doing lately, and she didn't even have her loot die stuff equipped.

Dynasty didn't stop as she entered the safe zone, and instead started to head back to the kid's shop. She might as well not take up too much time trying to ready herself to get to the part of finishing this quest. As she neared the shop, she grabbed made sure that she had everything that she needed.

Unidentified Uncommon Weapon is identified as T1 Uncommon Dagger [BLEED]

"So, did you find the items so that I can teach you how to identify them?" Dynasty pulled the three weapons from her inventory and put them onto a clear table. "Yeah, I didn't have the best of luck to find anything different, so they are all the same." "That's fine. Just look at the item and click the identification button." Umm, okay? That was very telling. She shrugged though and grabbed the first weapon, it was a dagger. It took her a bit to find the button that she needed to find to start the identification button.

She seemed to have a bit of a hard time just working on this identification, but when it was done, she had a dagger in her hands with a single enhancement of bleed on it. That wasn't a horrible thing, and this dagger could be of great use when it comes to those who use daggers. Wasn't bleed a good DoT?

She looked at the single weapon that she had just identified, and she felt a little proud. But she needed to figure out how to get faster at doing that. She looked at the dagger that she had identified, and she thought for a few moments. It had taken her the longest to try and find the button to identify the dagger, perhaps she just needed to make sure that she knew where that button was at all times? That might make that part easier.

She would have to try and look in the same spot for that button. She had a feeling that she could make things a lot easier by doing that. Dynasty put the dagger down, and just stared at the dagger. It wasn't bad for her first attempt at actually identify something, so she felt a little proud at that. But, she still had two more weapons to identify, so she was certain that she could attempt to do better.

Alright, she needed to buckle down and work on the second identification. She grabbed the unidentified rapier, and she quickly looked for that button. She found it faster than she had before, but that still hadn't meant that the actual identification was going to be faster. That was the part that was still taking the longest when it came to doing the quest. Plus, it probably didn't help that the little kid was literally staring her down as if she were a piece of meat right now.

That was a little creepy, and it didn't help her feel comfortable doing what she was doing at all. The master merchant's eyes didn't seem to actually leave her until she finally finished identifying the rapier. It had a single paralyze on it. That wasn't horrible, something that could still be useful to those who have better luck at hitting things than herself.

Alright, just one more item to identify, and then she was done with this quest, and she can get out from the judgmental eye of this kid. It wasn't that she was scared of this kid, it was just that his judgmental look was kind of creepy and unnerving. How could a NPC kid have so much judgement in his eyes? That wasn't normal, was it? She shrugged that off before she focused on the final item that she needed to identify. The moment that she identified this, was the moment that she feels like she could actually work this profession properly and without judgement.

It didn't take that long for her to identify this weapon, which was kind of nice. She felt like she was getting better and faster at identifying things, and that was probably an amazing thing. The unidentified warhammer before her soon turned into a warhammer with a single enhancement of bleed.

"Good job, now choose one to take with you, and you can leave." She stared at the kid, but he was walking away from her. She ignored that and felt a little better about things now. For now, she looked over the three weapons, and she studied them, Dynasty wanted to pick the right one, but none of them were something that she could use herself. But, she might be able to sell the one that she did pick. So, she was going to pick the weapon that might end up selling faster.

She hadn't seen very many rapier users, so she disregarded that one for now. Instead, she picked up the dagger. She had a feeling that this one would be a good one, and even if she doesn't sell it to someone, wasn't the ability to junk unwanted gear a thing that she can do? Dynasty smiled though as she picked up the dagger once more and put it back into her inventory.

She said her goodbyes to the master merchant before she turned and walked outside. She was going to go and see if she could find herself a nice little place to have her shop set up now. There were many areas where she could have her shop put up, and she was excited to go and find a place to actually put her shop up. So, she walked up and down the streets of the first floor, looking around the different areas.

Dynasty walked for maybe three hours before she stopped in front of an empty building. This would be perfect, and she knew that. But, she would work on building the shop another day. Right now, she just wanted to go back to the inn and go lay down. Asimi was awake, and barking from her pocket, so she grabbed him, putting him down as he grew to his larger size, shaking himself. "Let's get some food Asimi, then we can talk shop."
