Chapter 24
I still have over 500 credits, so I think I'll get a new skill. I don't have woodworking, so I'll get that for 300 credits. For 200 remaining credits, I buy the skill Cooking. I don't have to eat for some reason, but sleeping feels good so I will assume that eating does too. 55 Credits left. I don't know what to buy, so I buy a bucket for 50 credits and have 5 left over.
Before the night ends, I cook some hare meat over a fire. There are plenty of sticks in this forest, but they are all damp and cold. Luckily, I can blast them with fire magic to dry them right up. The hare did not taste good, and I almost want to throw the rest away. I know I will use it later in traps, so I keep it anyways.
Overnight, I use the Woodworking skill to craft things from wood. Little things like spoons and knives. I tried, and failed, to make a fork, but I don't really need a fork when I can just eat off the stick like earlier. I wonder how bear meat taste. I can make handles for tools out of wood, which would probably be better than just leather. I should also think about other ways of increasing the quality of my smithed weapons. I will wait until the next shop day before smithing anything else into weapons. For now, I need to complete quests and mine. When I get tired of woodworking, I go to sleep on my bed.
The morning of the 29th day, I set traps and set off towards the far away town. Along the way, I kill seven wolves, but I ignore the bears. I only saw one bear anyway. In the far away town, I will be able to turn in the quest for 600 credits. After that, I'll take the rank B quest and head to the closer town. I move really fast through the trees, but that doesn't stop me from only making it to the far away town the next day.

Really early morning of the 30th day and I am unable to purchase a room. I only have 5 credits, and I need 20 for the room at the tavern. In the meanwhile, I'll just practice magic outside the town. Basic magic costs 10 mana per second to use, and my mana regenerates at a rate of ten mana per minute. There is no water nearby, so I use Earth Magic to make a bowl and then use Fire Magic to melt snow I placed inside the bowl. One thing that kinda sucks about going straight to Intermediate is the lack of fine control. I can't control my Fire Magic like I can my other two, so I might have to buy Basic Fire Magic from the shop next shop day. In any case, from now on, I will start by buying the basic magic skill before any higher rank. There were Advanced magic books in the shop along with Legendary books. Each increase in the skill level doubled the price, so I don't think I will have enough credits to buy them for a while.
When morning came around and the Adventurer's Guild opened, I went inside to try and turn in the quest.
"Oh, you finished it, good for you," The bitchy woman at the desk said, taking the fangs and the tails. "Hold out your hand." I held out my hand, and the woman transferred 600 credits to me.
"Do you keep all the credits for the guild?" I asked her, and she sighed.
"Just for this branch." She replied.
"Then why not take the credits and run? What stops you from doing that if you hate the job so much?" I ask her, but her mood seems to worsen.
"As a condition of the slave contract, I am not allowed to leave the Adventurer's Guild and I may only use the credits for Guild-Approved purposes."

Slaves... I haven't seen or heard about slaves in this world, but I suppose I would be crazy to think there weren't any. Plenty of light novels have slaves in them, why would this video game world be any different? Time to get my harem of slave bitches and explore a labyrinth.
After turning in the quest objectives, I get the rank B quest.
>**Quest**
>Rank: B
>Details: Kill 10 Iron-Back Devil Hounds in the Obsidian Peaks. Retrieve the hide.
>Reward: 1000 Credits

Spellcraft
This is the revised and rewritten version of Spellcraft! Explore the world, meet new and interesting monsters, and kill them for their loot. It was a tale as old as gaming, and it bored Conlan to death. He always had more fun finding little chinks in a game’s systems. He loved figuring out how to exploit those systems and turn them to his advantage. And ever since the release of Lotus, revolutionary hardware that finally delivered the dream of stepping into a fully immersive VR world, he'd had more items on his game breaking agenda than ever before! Lately he’d been using those skills to mess with Horizon Online Entertainment. He figured screwing those bastards over was the least he owed the corporate pricks for killing his sister in one of their Lotus VR modules. They had too much money to face justice from the courts, but he was hellbent on destroying them in the court of public opinion! Only there’s only so much he can do to fight Horizon from inside their games, and a whole new digital battlefield is opening up: Lotus Online. The greatest and most immersive VRMMO ever created, the ultimate expression of the Lotus hardware made by the masters who created that hardware, and Horizon is trying to invade that new world and take it over the same as they’ve taken over everything else! Yeah, not if Conlan and his best gaming buddy Kris have anything to say about it. Because Conlan has a secret weapon. He’s discovered something in Lotus no one else has: Spellcrafting. The chink in Lotus’s armor. He's always loved crafting, and he's discovered a system that might just allow him to take over the game world, kick Horizon out, and hit them right in the bottom line in the real world. Assuming he can survive all the invading Horizon bootlickers trying to kill him long enough to pull off the greatest exploit of his infamous game breaking career! Spellcraft is a 225,000 word GameLit novel that is totally finished. New chapters are released every other day!

Will he get over his past and really turn a new leaf??? Will a place where law of jungle has long seeped into the society allow him lead a pleasant life without any carnage or bloodshed?????? ------------- Warning: About Story The Inheritor will be your standard reincarnation fantasy in a futuristic setup with cultivation being a mainstream occupation. Though it's a standard novel with Reincarnation and Cultivation 'The Inheritor' is not a HAREM and it'll have Romance. The action might take the back seat in the first part of the book. About the Author This is my first novel or any attempt to write something so I'm pretty much a newbie trying to pen down the fantasies rolling in my mind. English isn't my First language so brace yourself for some grammatic potholes. But I'm genuinely working on improving my English but it won't be happening overnight as it's a process, I guess. (for the time being, I'm trying to make it readable with some Grammar checking software) Moreover, I wish to improve my writing skills as the story grows and readers help in spotting mistakes or critics might turn it into a reality.
