The next day, early in the morning, Arina told her parents she was going to stay with a friend.
This was both a lie and partially true. She was actually going to see Serena who lived in a nearby neighbourhood.
She finally arrived at Serena's house. She knocked on the door.
"It's me, Arina." She said and the door opened itself. Then, a small drone directed her to Serena's room. Her room was a regular one all apart from one thing, she had multiple tools hung on the walls.
Arina walked deeper into her friend's room and saw a figure wearing a black apron with googles on using a blowtorch.
The figure used it for a while and then picked up a screwdriver. The figure seemed to have not noticed Arina's presence but Arina didn't want her to lose focus.
The person finally finished and took off the googles, apron and helmet, showing her blue hair. It was Serena, when she turned around she was shocked when she saw Arina in front of her but quickly settled down.
"Oh Arina, so what did you want to talk about?"
"Do you know a way for me to make some money? I'd like to help my parents out. Speaking of which, where are your parents?"
"Oh, they're not around. Anyway, I know a way and this gadget I've created might help us." Serena quickly put the gadget in a compartment bag in such a way that Arina was unable to see what it looked like.
Serena took her to a large building which had a symbol of a cube, meaning it belonged to one of the Great Caster Families. As they arrived, they saw multiple people going in and out holding Drach Weapons or giving out Valuable Items (Drach Items).
Serena walked up to one of the Stalls with a young man at the front. He had rough blue hair, purple eyes and wore a red t-shirt with green trousers and was sitting down in front of a table.
"Hey cuz. Umm Renn, can we help you out with hunting Drachs." Serena asked, Renn was her older cousin, he was nineteen years old.
"Umm sure, but who's the friend?" Renn asked and smiled.
"I'm Arina." Arina said.
"It's a pleasure to meet you. I'm Renn Akanabe. I do need a specific Drach's tail that all the other hunters can't seem to find?"
"How much will you give us for it?" Arina asked and Renn laughed a little.
"It's not that easy."
"Try me."
"Okay, one Cyrons."
" Seven Cyrons"
" Four Cyrons and ninety Circlets"
"Five Cyrons."
"Deal."
Arina and Renn finally came up with an agreement. Renn gave them the picture and a few information on the Drach they were supposed to find.
Serena pulled out her gadget. It was a small silver circular device with a light indicator on top of it. She used it to scan the Info.
"We can use this to track the Drach."
"Wow, you can really do that?"
"Uhuh." Serena nodded, a bit proud.
