Selling Items

Seeing a customer approaching, the shopkeeper instantly perked up.

"A new batch of recruits just arrived recently. Seems like there are some promising ones. Which world did you experience, young man?"

It was an obvious attempt to pry information out of him, so Kiba naturally ignored it and repeated his earlier request.

"Boss, I'd like to get a newbie's guide."

"You're pretty cautious, huh, kid?" The shopkeeper chuckled as he picked up a thin booklet. "Don't let its size fool you. You can learn a lot from this. The price is just 5 plot points—quite reasonable."

It wasn't expensive. Even though the booklet could be sold repeatedly, the concept of paying for knowledge is based on mutual consent.

You could save a bit of money, but the price you pay for that decision might be immeasurable.

Looking around at the many stalls nearby, Kiba wondered why no one else had tried to muscle in on this business.

All you needed to do was copy the booklet, and you could start earning plot points from newcomers. Surely, others had thought of this simple idea.

"Kid, you're not thinking of competing with me, are you?" The shopkeeper suddenly flashed a strange smile, his eyes filled with an indescribable malice. "In a low-difficulty world, no one can steal my business. If you don't believe me, feel free to try."

Indeed, no one was competing with the shopkeeper. There had to be something going on behind the scenes that Kiba didn't understand. Luckily, he had never had such an idea in the first place, so he didn't take the threat seriously. He took the booklet and left.

Finding a quiet spot, he started carefully reading through the information in the booklet. The previously mysterious Reincarnation Space was slowly revealing its secrets.

After about half an hour, Kiba finally looked up and carefully stored the booklet, making sure it was easily accessible for future reference.

Then he opened the inventory space and took out the most valuable item he had: a necklace.

**Name:** Irretrievable Hometown 

**Grade:** Silver Plot Equipment 

**Category:** Necklace 

**Durability:** 60/60 

**Attribute Boost:** +3 to Spirit 

**Usage Requirements:** 12 Spirit, 10 Perception 

**Equipment Effect:** Titan Summoning 

**Origin:** Attack on Titan 

**Equipment Evaluation:** These small beings can help you with many tasks, as they carry the thoughts of three warriors.

**Titan Summoning (Active Skill):** Consumes 5 Spirit to instantly summon three small abnormal titans. Duration: 10 minutes. Cooldown: 3 hours.

After equipping it, Kiba's Spirit stat increased by three points, and the most noticeable effect was that his mind instantly felt much clearer.

**Spirit: 15 (+3)**

"According to the booklet, 15 Spirit is close to the limit for a low-difficulty world."

Without any guidance, Kiba had powerful spiritual energy but didn't know how to use it. Now, after reading the booklet's introduction, he immediately understood the combat methods for those with high Spirit.

Just like how strength-oriented fighters use physical force, Spirit can directly affect the human body, causing non-physical damage in the form of "spiritual shock."

Depending on the output of Spirit, different levels of damage can be inflicted—this is a basic technique for those with high Spirit.

"Another attack method added."

Without closing the attribute panel, Kiba turned his attention to the three unused attribute points.

These points were convenient to use; Reincarnators could allocate them at any time.

He was tempted to max out his Spirit, but he had another piece of equipment waiting to be used.

**Usage Requirements:** 7 Constitution, 3D Maneuvering Gear Control LV3 

"Let's add two points to Constitution and the remaining point to Spirit."

After allocating the points, it was time to upgrade his basic skills.

**3D Maneuvering Gear Control LV1-LV2 requires 50 plot points. Confirm upgrade?**

"Confirm."

**3D Maneuvering Gear Control LV2-LV3 requires 100 plot points. Confirm upgrade?**

No need to hesitate—he upgraded it immediately.

With both usage requirements met, the modified 3D Maneuvering Gear became "equipable."

After securely fastening it to his waist, Kiba's attributes had significantly improved.

**Life:** 90/90 (+20) 

**Status:** Healthy 

**Strength:** 7 (+1) 

**Constitution:** 7 

**Agility:** 6 (+1) 

**Spirit:** 16 (+3) 

**Perception:** 10

With these stats, no one would believe he's just a rookie who recently completed his first trial mission.

He's only one skill away from becoming a fully matured veteran Reincarnator, a skill that could serve as his trump card.

"Skills might be hard to come by, but I can post my specific requirements on the bulletin board."

Following the booklet's instructions, Kiba headed to the bulletin board in the center of the plaza and displayed his skill requirements for everyone to see.

**[Category: Skills]** 

**[Attribute Preference: Spirit-based, Summoning-based, Healing-based]** 

**[Price Range: 500-2000]**

Why include Healing-based skills? The reason is simple—he possesses the Titan Summoning equipment skill. If he could obtain a healing ability, it would greatly extend the combat endurance of the three abnormal titans.

He's not skilled in close combat and doesn't want to join a team, so in the future, he'll need to find ways to become a one-man army.

That's why Kiba posted a request for summoning and healing skills.

Of course, even if there's a good skill available, he probably can't afford it, so he needs to find a way to sell off some of his inventory.

**[Name: Colossal Titan Bloodline Potion]** 

**[Fixed Price: 5000 Plot Points]** 

**[Note: Can be exchanged for skills or equipment of equivalent value]**

He deliberately set the price at 5000 plot points. No one, not even a fool, would spend that much money on a Titan transformation.

His real intention was to increase visibility, to let more people know that this item exists.

With competition, the product can be sold at a better price.

For now, though, he needs to prioritize upgrading his military rank.

The booklet clearly stated that Merit Points are incredibly valuable, even influencing the rules set by the Reincarnation Space.

It didn't go into great detail, but it did list a few examples.

For instance, knowing the next story world in advance allows for targeted preparations.

Or increasing the number of selectable worlds, enabling Reincarnators to go to the one that benefits them the most.

You could even track other Reincarnators and enter the same story world to resolve conflicts and grudges.

These are just a few of the possibilities. In short, any opportunity to earn Merit Points should never be missed.

The lowest rank is Private Third Class, requiring just 5 Merit Points for promotion.

Private Second Class requires 10 points, while Private First Class needs 15 Merit Points.

At present, Kiba can directly promote himself to Private Second Class in the Reincarnation Space.

To do this, all he needs to do is return to his room, where he can complete the rank-up process.

By the way, the room's layout can be changed at will. Kiba chose an English-style castle.

The overall layout is exquisite, though it looks like there might be some hidden monsters lurking around.

"Space, upgrade my rank."
