And so the busy days where I kept cleaning ditches, practicing the sword, going to school and trading continued. I spent my days like this, until finally, I became 11-years-old.
Then one day, my guild card savings finally reached 15 million cents.
With this amount saved, I headed to the hidden Lurden Store. By this point, I had already found out where the store was located.
From the Guild, I cut through the downtown area on Central Avenue and then walked through the residential area towards the Academy. Then there is a small shopping street, and when you enter the alleyway, you will find a suspicious looking spot.
A dark staircase leading to the basement in the alley behind that district, this is the entrance to the Lurden Store.
Of course, I didn’t worry about having any problems with suspicious people since I was using【Concealment】.
The Lurden Store only opened for two hours, from 5pm to 7pm.
I arrived at the entrance at exactly 5pm.
Suspicious.
That was what I first thought when I saw the entrance
In a secluded back alley where you could barely see, there was a staircase off to the far side, hidden from the main streets. There was not enough light to show you what was inside. ‘There couldn’t be a shop here’ is what most people would think.
It was a really unsettling feeling.
But if I didn’t proceed, I wouldn’t get anything, so I go onwards, down the stairs, and into the darkness.
The passage didn’t lead straight down. There were two times when the stairs levelled off to a landing, and when I continued, there was a door.
‘The Lurden Store.’
That’s what was written on the sign on the door, but it didn’t seem like they were welcoming visitors.
I deactivate【Concealment】and knock on the door.
After a bit, I heard an old woman’s voice from the inside.
”Who is it?”
I use the [Appraisal] skill on the door. To enter the Lurden Store, I needed a code that changed every day. If I didn’t answer the correct code, I wouldn’t be able to enter. In the game, I never had to do anything to go in so I wasn’t really curious. But in reality, it’s pretty annoying, huh?
I answer back the exact words the I got from the【Appraisal】skill.
”A rabbit jumped in the east forest today. Tomorrow we’ll move south, but before that I want to make a meal of it.”
*Gacha*
And with that, the door opened and I entered. In it, was the same Lurden Store that you saw in game.
The small six-mat shop was crammed with questionable items. Skeletons, lizard tails, books, dried flowers and plants, all of which I had no idea what they were used for.
And a wrinkled old woman sat at the back counter.
“Welcome. What can I do for you?”
“I want the 『Scroll of Alchemy』.”
The old woman’s eyebrows twitch. Then she lets out a muffled laugh.
“Good. I like you, how about 14 million for it?”
“Yeah, that’s fine.”
“Then, please wait while I get it.”
The old woman grinned as she walked to the back of the store.
And after a while, she returned with a scroll and few small stones.
”This one is the『Scroll of Alchemy』and these ones are magic stones from goblins. I’ll give you three as a service.”
I immediately used my 【Appraisal】 skill to appraise the scroll.
────
Name: Just a scroll.
Description: a scroll labeled alchemy. It can be used for a variety of purposes, such as memo taking and calligraphy.
Grade: Common
Price: 1,000 cents
────
I clicked my tongue and returned the scroll.
“You’re kidding me. Do you have the scroll or not?”
The old woman then gave him a surprised look and then grinned.
“You pass. You have a good eye, kid, here’s the real one.”
With that, she took a scroll out from under the counter.
────
Name: Scroll of Alchemy
Description: a scroll that allows you to learn the [Alchemy] skill. Once used, it disappears.
Grade: Epic.
Price: 13,000,000 cents
────
This time it seemed to be the real thing. But just in case, I also used【Appraisal】on the magic stones.
────
Name: Goblin Magic Stone (Large)
Description: the magical stone of a mature goblin
Grade: Uncommon
Price: 30,000 cents
────
Okay, this time it’s the real thing. The scroll’s price is a bit high, which is annoying, but it’s still within budget. Let’s go with this.
“All right, that’s fine. I’ll pay for it with the guild card.”
So I pay with my guild card and receive a scroll and the magic stones.
I unfold the scroll on the shop counter and put my right hand on it.
The scroll glows brightly for a moment, and then disappears in the next.
I check the status from my guild card.
────
Name: Allen.
Rank: G
Age: 11
Blessing:
Skills:【Concealment】【Appraisal】【Alchemy】.
Place of residence: Lurden
Cash on hand: 1,028,005

“That was definitely the『Scroll of Alchemy』.”
I confirmed it once again and headed out of the store
“Come again soon.”
The old woman laughed mysteriously as she said waved goodbye.
