《Life as a solo gamer》Chapter 14 - Some clothes
Advertisement
Before going I talk back to the employee.
"Umm, I would like another quest, can you show me the list? Or whatever it is? Please?"
"*Sigh*, you know, most adventurers get some rest after a quest. it's almost dark outside."
"Well, I only picked up some her-"
"'152' Jermeth herbs."
"Yes, I know that. I'm not tryna do the quest right away, I'm gonna do that tomorrow."
"Why not ask for one tomorrow?"
"Because..." Is that any of YOUR business? Jesus with your 20 questions, just answer me, you unprofessional fuck. "...when I wake up, I can go do the quest right away instead of coming back here. Now can I have my QUEST please?"
The girl lazily points towards my right.
"The quest board for 'Rank E Adventurers' is over there..."
I walk towards the quest board without responding to her. 'She should give me some respect.'
"Herbs, herbs, herbs, is there anything else but herbs?... Ok let's see here 'Kill 30 goblins South-East of Nacrama, bring 30 ears as proof, reward '10 silver coins'"
Nacrama, huh? that's this city's name, isn't it? The reward isn't that bad... I mean another reward... for only me, is I get XP, 1 goblin is 50 XP so 30 goblins is 1500 XP, right now I need 500 XP for a Lvl. But next level up is probably gonna be around 800 XP so... I'll only level up 2 times after this quest.
Now that I've realized, I think I'm the only one here who can 'Lvl up' here, actually no, scratch that, I think other people can level up as well, BUT, they aren't aware of it. Cause they don't have 'status'. Well, I'm sure people have 'Appraisal' but I don't think appraisal shows stuff like Level's even if the appraisal is a high level. Well, we will know in the future.

Got off topic there. "Let's grab this quest." I grab the piece of paper from the quest board. And walk towards the bitch employee to hand it over to her.
"Here you go."
"Give me your guild card."
Wow, 0 respect. At least be polite... Is it because I'm a kid? Is it because she's mad about earlier? Haha, watch later when I'm a high-rank adventurer will you continue acting like that?
I hand over my guild card. 'I wish I can throw it in her face'.
"There's always adventurer's like you, biting off more than you can chew, Especially a kid like you? pfft, Here's your card."
"Thanks, bitch."
"Excuse me?"
I walk out of the guild, this time I hear no loud screaming behind me. In fact, I hear nothing at all.
"Ah, I lost my temper. I shouldn't have done that. Well I mean I thought she would say something like 'Be careful', 'it's dangerous!' or 'It's Risky! You should come back when your higher rank!'" They should just hire monkeys instead.
Anyways... I'm gonna go on a buying spree! Mmmm, let's see here... Ahhh, yes, some clothes. You know what, not only am I getting clothes. I'm getting armor, a good pair of shoes and a new sword. 'This sword is probably contaminated I don't want this shit'. Well, jokes aside I don't want this sword, cause every time I look at it, it reminds me of that ugly ass face. And I can get a better one either way cause I got 5 gold coins.
"Let's start with clothes." I walk back to the same clothes store I was at yesterday.
"Hello miss, It's good to see you here again!" The employee greets a customer.
"Why hello there. Don't mind me, I'm just browsing to see if anything is to my liking."

"Please Take your time."
I walk to the employee.
"Hi there!"
The employee glances at me then sais.
"The crappy clothes are in the corner over there. Don't worry they are all cheap."
This fucking... I swear are all employee's in this city so rude? Just because I look poor?
"No no no, please point me where there are the most expensive clothes? especially my size. Oh! And can it be adventurer clothes? You know like clothes for combat and such."
"Sorry, but do you have enough coins?"
I show him a single gold coin.
"Hahahaha, I'm sorry for being impolite please follow me."
That's right, you show some coins and they do a 180-degree change.
Uhmm ok? I mean I followed this guy but I didn't really have to, we only walked for a couple of seconds to the adventurer clothes section. Mmmm He's probably tryna be nice. whatever.
"Thanks,"
"No problem, if there is anything you need please call me ove-"
"No, I need you right now, please give me the most expensive adventure combat clothes whatever its called, for my size too please."
"Ah, yes please wait a moment.... How about this? it cost 15 gold coins, its fire resistant and-"
"No no, I mean something easy to wear. For combat just some easy to wear combat clothes please."
"That's it? Please wait a moment.... This right here, black long sleeve shirt. It's easy to wash off blood and it's a little tight. It cost 1 silver coin. There really isn't 'Adventurer's clothes' Adventurers just wear normal clothes preferably clothes easy to move around in. Such as this."
"Ok, I would like that and some pants."
"Here is the pants, its also black, easy to wash off blood and tight. Cost 1 silver coin."
"Do you have the same pair as these but not tight?"
"Yes we do would you like those?"
"Yes please" Wouldn't I look weird if my pants were that tight? Unless it's some skinny jeans.
"The total price is 3 silver coins."
"3? Isn't it 2? I mean you said the price of the pants were 1 silver coin."
"The price of the tight ones are 1 silver coins while these ones are 2 silver coins."
"I wonder why?"
"The tight ones are good in combat but barely anyone buys them."
Well, there you have it. "Anyways, here's 3 silver coins. Goodbye"
"Thank you very much! Have a nice day."
I wear the clothes immediately and leave the old ones on the ground. "Ah.... it's all black, I look like I'm gonna rob a place." Next, I need some shoes... And some socks, I am still bare foot after all.
