276 7.4 Breakdown Of Stats Knowledge

"Nah...take this. This is a starter storage bag. It's nothing, though. It could be stacked if you want to. It has 5 slots and would be able to carry 25 items per slot. That doesn't mean you could carry 25 swords or 25 bows because this storage bag is not meant to do so. You could, however, store 25 arrows in a slot."

"It's fortunate that you had been found out ahead by me. I wondered how you are going to endure in the wilderness if I did not call out for you. You certainly need to talk to Mr Director regarding this, frankly, you are worse than a child wielding a twig. At least he or she would have a better chance of survival."

"Haish...I guess you are going to be here for quite some time, child. By looking at your stats, you won't even survive even for a few days. Keep these fox furs and tails with you. Go to the market place along the river here about 2 hours journey and you can sell them to any of the 5 or 6 merchants there."

"Is there such a marketplace here? I was thinking that you are the only person here right after I left the marketplace downstream. Is there any other settlement there besides these 2?"

"There's one every 4 to 6 hours journey. Most of these settlements and marketplace would be near a water source, so either you move upstream to get to bigger settlements as you go on or downstream where the settlements get less populated."

"However, with that red name of yours above your head, it might take longer than 24 or 48 hours to revert back to green. You may go back and kill some more Red Foxes if you want. There are several kinds of foxes, Red ones, Grey ones, and Black ones. They are also classed as Dull, Normal, Wild, Sly and Ferocious."

"Dull and Normal Foxes won't attack back and normally would run off a few meters after being encountered by you. Wild ones would retaliate about 30% of the time, Sly ones would retaliate about 60% of the time and the Ferocious ones would retaliate about 80% of the time."

"If you meet a pack Wild ones, chances that you may meet some Sly ones. However, if you chanced upon a pack of Sly ones, be prepared to be attacked by the Ferocious ones. With the set of skills you have, you may even have difficulties dealing with some Wild ones."

"I would prepare myself in building my Strength, Dexterity, Constitution, Wisdom and Essence if I were you right now."

"Elder, please forgive this child for being ignorant. Could you explain to me in detail what those stands for?" I asked her and I find that it's truly fortunate for ne being discovered by her even when I was lurking around.

"So useless at this age after being around for so long...Sigh...I'm going to explain to you once, so listen well."

"Strength is the primary attribute of all characters with a melee build. Strength is the primary requirement for most weapons.

Strength increases physical Damage and Defense."

"Wisdom is the primary attribute for anyone using an Internal Chi Energy.

Wisdom increases Internal Chi Attack Rating and Dodge."

"Constitution is not the primary attribute for any builds, and it is not a requirement for any weapons. Constitution increases the Maximum HP that a character has."

"Dexterity is the secondary attribute for characters using a melee build, and it is the secondary requirement for most weapons.

Dexterity increases Attack Rating and Dodge."

"Essence is not the primary attribute for any builds. Essence increases Internal Chi Energy Damage and Defense."

"Have you got all that, child? The only good thing is that you have a poor level of Essense and Wisdom. The rest of them...Pffftttt..."

"Your skill levels are being set as Unknown, Very Poor, Poor, Average, Normal, Good, Very Good, Best and Extraordinary. Even if you are being evaluated at having Intermediate Levels, in this world, it is deemed as Poor."

"Elder, if Intermediate is deemed as Poor, then Basic would be Unknown or Very Poor then. At yai yai yai yaiiii....this is not good notifications at all for me. Elder, if I may ask a favour from you...Could you be a tutoring light in this adventure of mine?"

"Are you ready to be here and relearn all that you had known before and add more points to the current stats that you own? It won't be a simple path for you and it might tire you to death, or turns you into a homebody and living the life like mine?"

"I am inclined to relearn what I have comprehended but would I be eligible to quit whenever I wished to? There won't be a binding pact, am I right?" I asked since I won't want to end up like a recluse herself.

"Alright, in this case...go and kill as many dull red foxes you can discover in the forest and once there are no drops, that implies you had surpassed the minimum requirements and look for normal red, grey or black foxes instead. Come back here for lunch. I've brought out a few items from your fruit basket to prepare a meal."

I deliberately drank up on the refreshing cranberry tea and decided to hunt those dull foxes until I ceased to pick up any drops before raising up to another kind.

Off I went again to the forest and looking for the dull foxes to kill and then I would be able to gain some experience points or something. The dull foxes were still congregating at the same place I've been twice today, and I still needed to strike thrice before the animal would disintegrate and vanish into the ground and leaves behind the spoils of war.

It had been close to midday when I realized that the dull foxes had stopped dropping their spoils and I decided to head back for lunch. I wonder what kind of dish that the elder managed to whip up with the abysmal amount of vegetables from the basket. I had only managed to get 3 coins, 1 foxtail and 1 fur.

"Ah...you're back in time. There are some gruel and some vegetables with some fox meat I had gathered from all the foxtails that you had brought back. Go eat some and replenish your energy. Rest if you wish and continue to grind those foxes. How was your progress, child?"

I answered that the dull foxes had stopped dropping their spoils and would be hunting the normal knew instead. I informed her that I still require 3 strikes before taking the animal down.

"Don't worry. You will soon know what to do next. Your experience points would be automatically allocated now. There's no need to think too much of it. As a 'vagabond', your stats would be distributed accordingly. A 'vagabond' would have the advantage of wielding a one or two-handed weapons and be able to use a ranged weapon like your short bow now."

"Thank you, elder, for your enlightenment," I said as I reached my hand to accept a bowl of gruel with some vegetables and fox meat in them. The scent of the gruel was enticing and I wished I could stock up on her food reserves since it would hard on her having an extra mouth to feed.

"I would like to go to the marketplace to get some more grains, elder. It's for both of us and some garnishings too." I suggested and she raised her hands when I mentioned about garnishing.

"Look yonder for chives, celery, onions, garlic and parsley. Collect them and return it back here once you have collected a basketful each. You don't have to buy those. I had cultivated them myself."

"Yes, Elder. I will do as being told. How much does the grain costs?" I asked since I do have such a meagre amount in my coin pouch now.

"Oh...just 1 'chupak' or 'catty' costs 3 coppers for unhusked grains while 8 coppers for rice. You can buy the unhusked grains and I will be doing the unhusking here using this molar and pestle. Such a waste to buy the rice since it costs nearly triple the amount. of grains"

"Yes elder, thank you once again. I will go to the fields later to cultivate the things required and I will go to the marketplace afterwards to get the grains. May I see the kitchen on what are the things that are required to be purchased later on?"

"Eeehhhh... no man has entered my private domain before and it would not be the first from you. Just buy what you think is needed and when on your second trip, I will let you know what is not being required."

"Yes, elder...I understand and please forgive me if my statement early was misunderstood." I quickly finished the gruel and held another bowl for seconds when she stopped me by saying, "Do you think this is Oliver Twist eh? Oh please...may I have some more...? See this ladle here? One knock on your head will turn you into a monkey... Now go and perform your tasks..."

"Ara ma...this old lady is sure grumpy as hell. No wonder she lives all by herself...." I thought to myself and took my empty basket and proceeded to the other side of the house where she had cultivated a plot of 10x10 land to grow her roots and herbs.
