Chapter

He was happy with his new discovery. He got a notification to name the poison. He named it "Poison - D".

Congratulations +50 fame.

Nobody knows what fame is so far. May be Dink is first to unlock this stat. But he didn't care. He was more obsessed with poison. He started experimenting with poison. He brought a cheap sword. It is a basic weapon, a newbie buys to kill cats. It cant hurt any other monster, because of its pathetic attack power. It might help to scratch other monster when they are itching. It has a blunt edge, nobody would use this other than people who entered for first 3days. Dink applied all the poison on his sword and cats nails. He was barely helping his cat when its fighting other cats. And his job is mostly collecting fallen copper. All the people who joined game along with him long moved ahead. Only he was struck with cats and Obsessed with poison. He likes it to kill without effort like a free kill. He is playing his game as he wanted. Collecting copper and buying basic herbs at NPC store and experimenting is his routine. He also noted NPC store keepers attitude changed towards him, he started giving discounts and explaining more things. Dink dont know weather its because of newly opened fame stat effect or being his regular customer effect. NPC store keeper told him he can get some special iteams from him for more silver which were not available until he reaches popular cities. Dink was not at all interested as he can barely buy basic poison herbs. Store keeper kept talking about all kinda rare goods, weapons which are divided into four categories

Common >> Rare >> Epic >> Legendary

Also there are "spirit stones" , which are used to upgrade skills. Number of spirt stones required to upgrade depends on the type of skill. If its a trash skill, he can upgrade with 1 or 2 sprit stones. If its a super powerful skill, it may not upgrade even after 100 spirit stones. So basically it all depends. There were also auctions done at cities which..... Dink broke his chatter in middle, saying thanks and ran off. Dink doesn't care about anything. All he needed were some finest poison recipe.

People around noticed Dink as a weird guy always fighting with cats. Some even paid attention to him because he can kill cats with ease, a single slash from blunt sword is all needed. Finally after a week he was satisfied with his upgraded "poison D", with this poison his life becomes easier. He was also thinking about creating more specialized poison with rare herbs but he cant afford them. So for now he was happy with basic model. He cant help thinking.. "It all comes back to money,... Weather real life or game life.. Everything needs money to live happily". If only he got more copper.. He can buy best herbs, legendary weapons, thousands of spirit stones to upgrade all kinda skills.. Huh.. If only.. Other might curse him if known his extravagant ideas.. Spirit stones are like treasure. They buy them in auctions just to upgrade their life saving skill. Most people never upgrade their skills with fear of not knowing how many spirit stones were needed. What if they cant afford that many, then all stones used so far will be wasted. So only those who are super rich or those who really want an upgrade use them.

Dink came back to NPC store keeper and started showing off his new poison D. As he got no friends, he can only talk with store keeper. He was not sociable as evident having no friends so far. NPC store keeper reacted differently for first time. As Dink can see his shock, Dink noted this and thought are NPCs really having emotions? .. He thought to respect them more.. He cant help thinking his last time conversation with NPC store keeper, when he broke his chatter and ran away. Finally NPC store keeper used "detect skill" it helps detecting anything. He said it is a rare poison recipe, he can sell it for 1silver. Dink was now shocked. He can get 1 silver for it, all he needs to do is buy basic poison and follow a particular order of mixing also few hmm.. Its a trade secret. All he needs is 45 copper and he can get 1 silver in return. He doesn't need much time as its just mixing. This is amazing. Dink started buying all raw materials and tried making as much as possible, then again.. Selling them and buying raw material and making it.. Selling.. Buying.. He continued until his pet cat was exhausted. So he gotto stop for now. He sold them all for 24 silver.

He is Rich.
