《Pandora: A New Beginning》Chapter 5: The Smiths apprentice
Advertisement
The head blacksmith grumbled as if he couldn't be bothered to explain to me the problem that has occurred, so I turned my head towards the players and asked.
"What happened between the both of you?"
The player who looked to be the leader of the group said: "We asked him if he was able to forge weapons for us?"
As soon as I head that I realized that these people weren't normal, although you only need 2 or 3 pieces ores and a blacksmith to make it, to get these materials so early on, you would need to have a workshop, that or you have managed to find something valuable enough to trade with a life class player who chose to mine and happened to get lucky enough to find a blacksmith worthy material.
After a couple of seconds, I asked: "Why don't you go to another village for a blacksmith?"
One of his lackeys arrogantly said, "Why would we do that, this village belongs to us The Dominators."
It was only then that I used identify on them.
The leader of the group was called 'Dominator Chris' whilst the lackey was called 'Dominator Michael'
I ignored them and spoke to the blacksmith "Do you have a quest for me?"
Sardrock replied, "I require 10 iron ores, can you mine them for me?"
"Of course, I can mine the Iron ore for you, can you tell me where to find it?" It was this quest, the repeatable quest that can gain you relations with the blacksmith.
"Just outside of town is the Deathmount Mine, head there." Sardrock replied as if it was obvious.
Mine 10 Iron ore for Sardrock:
Iron ore mined: 0/10
I knew which mine he was talking about, it was called the same mine no matter which village you landed in, after heading into the mine I logged out of Pandora.

...
It was almost 9 pm I had been playing for hours and it was almost time to eat, since I had seen my parents again I would always be making the food before they arrive.
After eating I logged back into the game.
...
Standing just outside the mine, I was looking at the small influx of players that would arrive every 5-10 minutes, the mine could be classed as abandoned.
Walking into the mine I noticed that there were only about 50 players throughout the entire mine.
I took my pickaxe out of my inventory and started mining the iron.

..
...
....
After 30 minutes I had finally mined all 10 pieces of iron ore
Mine 10 Iron ore for Sardrock:
Iron ore mined: 10/10
Return to Sardrock to turn in the quest.
I started to return to Sardrock to turn in the quest, this quest can be completed 10 times in total, but no one had bothered to do that until several months into the game, the reason was simple, you don't gain exp from this quest, instead, you only receive 5 silver coins.
After entering the village I headed off to the blacksmith.
When I arrived at the blacksmith the players from before were still there, continuing to argue with the blacksmith.
I walked passed them and went to the blacksmith and spoke to Sardrock.
"I have returned with the 10 pieces of iron ore." Sardrock would be arrogant with those who demand from him, but on the other hand, if you had been tasked by him, he would prefer if you were upfront with him and disperse with the pleasantries.
Quest completed
5 Silver coins received
Relation with Sardrock Improved by 5
Quest completed 1/10
I was probably the only one who knew the benefits of completing the quest all 10 times so I asked him for a quest and I received the same quest.

Quest Received:
Mine 10 Iron ore for Sardrock:
Iron ore mined: 0/10
As I headed out of the blacksmiths I gave that group of people some advice "Why don't you ask him nicely instead of demanding, he might actually forge you what you want."
Without waiting for a reply I walked off back to the mine to start the mining process again.

Mine 10 Iron ore for Sardrock:

Quest completed 2/10
After handing the quest in, I asked Sardrock for the quest again, after receiving I walked out for the 3rd time, but this time I didn't notice that group of people standing outside, I didn't really think about it and started off on the grind.

After completing the quest for the 5th time I went back to the blacksmith.

Suddenly, a succubus
The protagonist is a personality like an iceberg: introspective, asocial and completely uninterested in the world and its people beyond necessity. Approaching ships beware! A succubus, on the other hand, lives for desire and interaction, playing mortal hearts like a fiddle. These clearly mix like oil and water, so what do you get when you combine them? This is a story of that kind of emulsion. *** Completed with 62 chapters + epilogue (total of 111k words). *** This novel is bit of an experiment for me. I haven't written fiction before, for one. I also chose a character context that I normally wouldn't, and let the characters drive the story, especially in the beginning. Overall the main focus will be the main character's own story rather than the events of the world. The setting itself uses many familiar fantasy elements, though I plan to add my own twists. Note that I'm not really planning to write any steamy scenes, despite the said character context being literal demons of lust and all. There are of course jokes and scenes that skirt around the subject, but this is not a romance story of any kind. So, is it a mess? Probably. But I hope it's an entertaining one at that.
