6 Bandit King Buser [Part 1]

Waking up the next morning, he immediately left the Inn after giving back the key to the receptionist.

Walking around to find a good restaurant to eat, a small child approached him and asked if he needs a guide. He said yes and resumes walking. He asks the kid if he knew where the way to the capital is. The kid nodded his head and added that there will be a caravan traveling to it 3 days from now. Nemesis satisfied with the reply, now asked where he can join in.

Not sure what to answer, the kid just told him to go to the guard hall near the gate entrance to ask more about it.

On the guard hall, Nemesis inquires about the caravan traveling to the capital and how much is the fee for joining. The guard said that he will notify the merchant of him joining and also asked to prepare 10 silver coins on the day of departure. He also added that the caravan will gather near the gate at 8 in the morning.

Nemesis thanked the guard, left and resume in his walk in finding a restaurant. The kid led him on the a place named Smoke Shack.Its situated at the other end of the town. Kind a weird for a restaurant location, but the kid said that the food is delicious inside. He then gave the kid 1 gold coin as payment and went inside.

Seeing the payment the kid received, he felt ecstatic and immediately hid the coin in his chest. He left the place immediately and went to the market to buy food.

Inside, Nemesis sat down and ordered a bowl of noodles, dumplings, roasted beef, and a bottle of wine. While enjoying the meal, he is carefully listening around for any useful information.

At the corner, there were two elves talking in hushed tones. The people around are oblivious to what they are talking, but Nemesis has a good hearing despite all the noises around him.

Listening to them, he found out that they are members of a bandit group led by 'Bandit King Buser' and are planning to rob the caravan that will set off in three days.

"This should be interesting. It's also a stupid thing to talk about your plans in a restaurant." saying in his head while smiling and then returns in enjoying his meal. He paid the waitress and left.

Nemesis then planned to farm exp in the forest for 2 days. He badly needed SCP for skill creation. Looking at the system he is quite happy as some of the skills are near completion.

Seeing the three spells that are to be completed, he is now quite happy. He now plans to have [Dual Wielding] and [Sword Mastery] when he got enough points on his hunt.

He can now create Kanshou and Bakuya. The twin swords used by EMIYA from the Fate series. Its sturdiness is around Platinum grade since that was the only composition he got from tracing the weapons the people are using here.

He traced every weapon he sees from the guards, to the travelers that is staying on the town. He also did that from every shop he passed by as well. Then he left the town to hunt exp.

Even he can create them, he sucks at using it. He just knows how to swing left and right like a child playing sticks in the daylight. Sparing himself from embarrassment, he just decided to get [Dual Wielding] and [Sword Mastery] skills first before waving those fancy swords around in fight.

The system had already given him the total cost and completion time; 460 SCP and 3 days 4 hours. Seeing this, he now want to use the remaining two [Skill Completion Card (50%)] for both of it.

----

Two days has passed and back in the same Inn. Nemesis is now thinking of taking accuracy or a range skill. He tried to have Sharingan, but the system said that it was not a skill. Sad of what he heard, he is now choosing between:

[Take Aim] Increases attack and vision range.

Level 1: Additional 250 meter attack and vision range.

Level 10: Additional 10 kilometer attack and vision range.

-590 SCP, 19 days 11 hours-

or

[Marksmanship] Increases accuracy and attack range.

Level 1: Grants 10% accuracy and 200 meters attack range.

Level 10: Grants 100% accuracy and 5 kilometers attack range.

-660 SCP, 21 days 3 hours-

-----

With his 997 SCP, he can afford either one. After thinking for 2 hours he finally chose [Take Aim], as tomorrow was his trip to the capital and there will be a bandit raid on the caravan on the way as well.

[Take Aim] will be a great help since his [Map] function only shows 2D aerial view of the surroundings. He then used his one [Skill Completion (100%)] card from a Lucky draw yesterday and leveled it up to Level 10.

Now left with 407 SCP, he tasked the system to get:

[Pain Absorption] A passive skill that increases pain tolerance of the user.

-300 SCP, 2 days 1 hour-

and

[Ascension Strike] Sword skill

-100 SCP, 20 hours-

-------

Satisfied on his work, he then cleans himself and went to sleep, preparing on his next adventure tomorrow.
