《My Pirate System》Chapter 29: Some Items From Mornil
Advertisement
The next day, Shiro woke up when he heard Mornil's mutterings.
"I suppose Shiro needs more food. I should have bought more buns…", Mornil mumbled as he continued packing all the items on the table.
Shiro stretched his arms as he got down from the couch. Last night, Mornil insisted that Shiro slept on his bed.
However, Shiro refused. He was a guest after all. How could he just take Mornil's bed?
Not like Mornil was any rich to have a luxurious bed. He did own one, but it was pretty much rag-tagged. Truth to be told, finding a good furniture in this low-class town would be equivalent to finding a treasure!
Eventually, Mornil agreed, after making sure Shiro was warm for the night with the blanket.
"Good morning, uncle…", Shiro greeted Mornil.
"Oh, good morning, Shiro! Come here and see what other things you need…", Mornil said as he motioned his hand towards Shiro.
Shiro walked to Mornil and his eyes widened in shock as he saw the items that were on the table.
There were almost a dozen buns and a few pastries by the side. There was also a brown pouch, possibly filled with coins.
"I don't know how long you would be traveling, so I thought you might need a lot of food…", Mornil explained.
"Uncle, you don't have to give me so much food! My luggage would be heavy when I travel…", Shiro said, refusing the kind gesture, while giving out a useless concern. He had an inventory, after all, nothing would be heavy for him.
"Oh right, I did not think of that…", Mornil said sheepishly.
"I'll just give you five buns, that'll last you for two days or more.", he said.
And now, Shiro grumbled. He was getting so many buns for free and could have gone weeks without him having to worry about anything.

'Ugh, I should think twice before speaking…', he said to himself.
Mornil began counting the buns and placing them into the basket he prepared.
"Inside this pouch, I have put a few coins. Keep it safe. I gave you everything from my savings, but it might not be enough. Remember to only use them during emergencies…", Mornil instructed as he placed the pouch into the basket.
Shiro nodded. He decided to not refuse the money, especially since he had yet to learn about the system. He remembered the reward given by the system was 200 gold coins, which should be enough, however, why should he refuse something that he was getting for free?
He learned this a few seconds ago!
"Do you need anything else?", Mornil asked.
"Hm, do you have a hoodie, uncle? I need to travel as discrete as possible since I am on the Wanted Posters…", Shiro asked politely.
"Oh right! How could I forget?", Mornil said as he rushed to his bedroom.
After a while, Mornil came out with an old grey coat. "I couldn't find one your size, but I suppose this will do."
Mornil handed the coat to Shiro. Shiro accepted it gratefully and put it on.
Earlier, he had searched for clothes in his own house, however, to cover himself, there was only a shawl. A hoodie would be better, and he remembered seeing Mornil wearing it once. Hence, he didn't hesitate to ask about it.
Regardless, it was very big, but it covered his body entirely. If he wore this, then he would not have to worry about being seen.
"Is it okay?", Mornil asked, concerned.
"Yes, it's fine. Thank you, uncle…", Shiro thanked Mornil.
"That's good. Have some buns as breakfast before you go…", Mornil said as he gave a bun and some more soup to Shiro.

Shiro accepted it and started munching on the bun, drinking the soup side by side.
"Uncle, do you know think the town nearby is a good option? Isn't there any other town that I can visit?", Shiro asked with his mouth full, again.
"Hmm, well, you can go to the next village, not the nearby one, but the one in the other direction. You just need to walk for 5 hours or more to the west, past the forest and you'll reach there.", Mornil recommended an entirely different place.
Shiro nodded as he swallowed the food in his mouth. "Thank you, uncle, I will do that."
"Try not to stay in one place for too long. Otherwise, the Anti-Pirate Federation can catch up to you…", Mornil reminded Shiro gently. He was feeling very worried for Shiro. Since he would not be able to be there with him, Mornil wanted to give advice to Shiro as much as possible.
"I'll keep that in mind, uncle."
"Oh right! I should give you some medicine just in case you get sick…", Mornil said as he rushed to the other side of the house, where he stored most of his medicine.
He came back with three small brown packs, some syrup bottles, and some natural herbs packed in a leaf wrapping.
"These three packs are conventional and can be used to cure common colds. Boil one packet at a time and drink it for three days. You'll feel better after that. Also, this herb in the green wrapping is for fever.", Mornil said as he placed the brown packs into the basket with the herb.
He then added, "This syrup bottle is to treat excess cough.", he showcased a bottle with a white cap.
And then, the one with the red cap, while saying, "This is more like a potion. If you get hurt, then just drink this, and the wounded part will be restored."
When he showcased the healing potion, Shiro was bewildered. He asked, "Wait, does that mean I can get hurt as much as I want, but as soon as I drink this potion, the wound will vanish?"
Mornil shook his head saying, "No. You can use it only once, and you have to drink it entirely."
"At most, it can only cure scratches and small cuts.", he said.

Summoned
“Per aspera ad astra." Death. Mercilessly, it comes for all. But when a young man is given a second chance – a second life – to experience what he never has, what will he do? Leave the burdens of his past behind, improving upon his faults? Or will he collapse back into old sins, wasting the opportunity given to him? Perhaps even he himself does not know. * Join Andre on his journey as he explores a new world – one ripped straight from the pages of a D&D campaign he's never played. He will face monsters. He will face men. And above all, he will face himself. The story’s genre is your standard progression fantasy, isekai: magic, a system, and a level of technology suspiciously underdeveloped. I’ve borrowed tropes from various books I’ve read like “The Second Coming of Gluttony”. The similarities are there (particularly in the beginning), but I assure you the story is my own. It’s in the first-person perspective and has its own quirks, characters, and world for you to become immersed in. The upload schedule for this will be different from the usual fictions on this site: I’ll release chapters in batches rather than so many a week. I’m a college student, so I don’t want another deadline to worry about. Depending on the popularity/demand of the series, I might increase or decrease the rate of releases. Other than that, I hope you enjoy the story! P.S. This is my first fiction so make sure to point out mistakes wherever you see them. I’m doing this, partly, to increase my skill as a writer. However, be kind! I’m fragile, you know? Warning: ***This is far from your happy-go-lucky, feel-good adventure story. There will be content that some of you might not be comfortable with. And if you're already feeling skeptical reading this, click away and don't come back. If you're still here, what are you waiting for?***

Hero
Kuren is just your average boy. He's just been asleep for one thousand years. Heroes and grand epics. Kuren doesn't have the time to think about things like that, nor does he really care. Join Kuren as he wanders the fantasy land of Alurca in search of his lost memories and the reasons behind his lengthy slumber. This is sort of a reboot of Anomaly, the first novel I tried to write. I gave up Anomaly after going to college. I thought about going back to it, but... when I look at it now, it's not very good. It was very edgy and not much substance behind that edge. The story wasn't quite going anywhere since I hadn't given the main character a goal. I had planned out a story, but I forgot to to plan out the details between the beginning and end. So this one's for real. Hopefully you won't be disappointed.
