[Friend request!]
[SnowWolf submitted a friend request. Do you want to accept it?]
Not waiting any longer, Aaron approved it. He knew the name of that swordsman. SnowWolf... was absolutely not his real name.
"Alright. I have to return to the town now." Aaron smiled as he said goodbye, but SnowWolf held him back.
"Brother, we should still split the profits with you. At the very least, accept 50 gold coins if you don't want all of them," SnowWolf said.
Aaron still refused, saying that their friendship was worth much over 50 or even 100 gold coins. But SnowWolf would feel guilty if Aaron didn't take that, leaving the young man with no other choice.
Aaron continued his journey towards Gray Stone City. Along the way, some Destroyer Beasts, such as wolves, jungle cats, and other wild animals, attacked Aaron several times.
He didn't have a sword to defeat them, but he still had his legs and Sir Janson's speed-boost potion to run fast.
Although he knew that the flesh and skin of Destroyer Beasts were valuable enough to even be sold in a small town like Gray Stone City, Aaron was forced to avoid them all for his own safety.
He was still reluctant to K.O. and leave all his treasures in this isolated forest!
Arriving in Gray Stone City, Aaron visited Sir Janson's shop to receive payment for the Black Dragon Mushroom he had obtained.
He was not safe without a sword. So it was better to receive the payment and directly buy a new sword.
"Oho! You got what I asked for!"
[Congratulations! You completed the mission from Sir Janson!]
[EXP +100]
[Honor +20]
Sir Janson smiled with great satisfaction as if the 10gram Black Dragon Mushroom was his son who had disappeared a long time ago and was only now being found.
"I should get paid, sir." Aaron made sure Sir Janson hadn't forgotten about his fee.
"Yes, of course, of course." Sir Janson took out two large-sized potion bottles from inside the storage cabinet. "Here, 500ml of health booster and speed booster potion. I give more for you."
Aaron accepted the two bottles with a nod. "Thank you, sir. Call me if you have another mission."
"Soon, I'll be moving out of this city. There's no way I'm asking you to do another mission."
Sir Janson laughed softly, remembering that this Black Dragon Mushroom would soon make itself sought after by city soldiers and even royal soldiers, so leaving Gray Stone City as soon as possible was the best choice.
"Did you not face the Giant Angry Stone or Destroyer Beast after taking this mushroom?"
As Sir Janson asked so, the smile on Aaron's face disappeared.
"Sir Janson, how did you ...."
"There's no need to protest, son. I wouldn't have paid so much for you if it weren't a dangerous mission." Sir Janson made a fierce face. "Get out of my shop before anyone gets suspicious!"
Aaron couldn't help but swallow a bitter smile as he walked away from Sir Janson's shop. It was not an act of desperation, but indeed, there was nothing else he could do in that place. And as for what Sir Janson wanted to do to this town, Aaron felt no need to interfere.
After all, Gray Stone City was just a virtual city that never really existed. Even if this city disappeared due to Sir Janson's actions, not a single life would be lost. Only NPCs, and that was no big deal. So Aaron didn't feel obligated to prevent Sir Janson's actions at all.
And after all, he really hated MMORPG games. And if he later heard the news that the Martial Online Company suffered huge losses due to the disappearance of the Gray Stone City, it would only be melodious music to his ears.
The day had entered dusk. Soon, the sun would set. The city buildings were reflected by the sun's rays.
The city activities increased at this time. Some went to the market to buy food, while others walked home after a long day of work.
Some players <spawn> to return to real life, while others are seen entering night bars.
Everyone was doing what they thought was the best way to relax. But for Aaron, while there was still something more rewarding than just relaxing, then he would do it.
Currently, the young man walked without the slightest hesitation toward the sword shop.
Her gaze was as piercing as an eagle's, making anyone feel intimidated. His shadow is in the middle of the street, putting pressure on those around him.
When a legend walked, then he didn't need to say anything to let the surrounding people know that he was a legend!
***
Aaron entered a fairly good weapon shop in Gray Stone City. This was a place where level 10 to 15 players usually bought weaponry. The scenery of Aaron surprised the surrounding people, who were still in level 1.
The young man chose to ignore the people's gaze. He presently entered the room on the first floor that sold swords.
Aaron looked around the room while stroking his chin.
To buy a sword of medium quality, at least 20 gold pieces were required.
A good quality sword required 50 to 100 gold pieces.
Currently, Aaron had more than 60 gold pieces, but he had no intention of spending it all, let alone going into debt with the shop. He would only buy a medium-quality sword for temporary use.
Once he had more money, he would buy a high-quality sword.
However, these were only the swords on the first floor. On the second to fourth floors, there were only high-quality swords that cost more than 1,000 gold coins!
This sword shop in Gray Stone City was not the best in the Fallen Star Kingdom. In fact, it was among the worst. When compared to the best sword shops in the Fallen Star Kingdom, the high-quality swords in this town's shop were nothing more than wooden toys.
Remembering that, Aaron swallowed his saliva. The world in this game was so vast with experts who had broken through the seventh layer of heaven. The weapons they used were not just any weapons!
Aaron moved his head to dispel the thoughts inside.
Looking upward is usually good, but if it's too far away, you'll only despair.

Mordecai's Weakness
Aaron went to a cave to rest after a long day of hunting.

Aaron, am I not the person you've been looking for all this time?"Aaron threw his spit on the ground as soon as he recognized the voice. "Mordecai... I've been confident in my current strength.""Oh, of course. Facing you, I am but an ant standing on the feet of a giant elephant." Mordecai let out a compliment that was much more akin to sarcasm. "So, why didn't you come here and fight me? Weren't you already confident of your victory?"Laughing softly, Aaron took something out from inside his spatial ring.[Item's name: Lighting BallType: CommonIt can light up for thirty minutes once activated.]From behind the darkness, M
