Chapter 164 - : Titles
A clerk working in Sky Tower took out a registration form and asked Nausica to write down her information.
Nausica looked at Angor first. “You’re not doing this too? You know, when opponents are weak.”
Angor shook his head. “I still need to recover. Maybe some days later.”
Nausica whispered to Angor, “You can ask Toby to fight for you. The bird is surely strong enough to help you get past the first level quickly.”
Angor already had such an idea after watching how “King of Beasts” battled. Nausica was right. Toby could definitely beat down opponents in the first level easily. Since Toby learned the sequence of gravity, its improved burst power compensated the bird’s lack of strength. Toby was already extremely fast. Now the bird was even faster AND stronger.
Still, Angor decided to wait. “Not now. You go first. I absolutely don’t want to run into you in a match.”
Nausica complied and shrugged. “You’ve got a point. Frankly speaking, I don’t know what to do if I’ve got to go against you in the arena.”
The shop looked similar to his last visit. All kinds of objects were places in disorder. Dave struggled a little to find a vacant table and asked Angor to place his crystal ball on it. Next, Dave took out his own crystal ball and controlled it to transmit information to Angor’s.
“It’ll take some time because there’s a lot of information,” Dave spoke while controlling his mana flow. “Maybe ten minutes.”
“Take it easy. I’ve something to ask too.”
“What is it?”
“Like I mentioned last time, I want to try out alchemy, so I’m here to buy some basic materials for practice,” Angor explained. He then asked, “Do you have any? I’ll buy them at the average market price.”
“You’ve just begun to study alchemy, and you’re going to use materials already? Isn’t that a bit too early? You should study the theories and basic spells first,” said Dave. He was puzzled by Angor’s decision.
“Well, I’ll combine it with practice. Since I still have merit points left, I’ll use this chance and learn by practice.”
Dave thought about the remaining balance of Angor’s merit points and did not say anything further. Dave wished to quicken his skill development by wasting money too but he was too poor for that, so he had to progress slowly. He only managed to create his first creation after spending five years.
“I’ve got a lot of low-leveled materials in stock. You can use them for fresh practice,” said Dave. He paused and asked something, “I forgot to ask, which field of alchemy are you going to study?”
