A Path of Bone and Poison 48 Purchases

We had a good rest that night, and due to the effects of her new earring Hylia's wounds had rapidly healed once she put on the earing. She looked ready to go upon waking up, not a single shred of the wounded and exhausted girl could be seen any more. I shook my head as I examined her. That earring was certainly a high level magic item.

When I got out of bed I could feel Hylia's eyes upon me. When I turned, I could see that her eyes were in a daze as she stared at me. It was odd, but I headed towards the bathroom. When I caught my reflection in the mirror I understood her reaction. I looked mostly the same, but completely different.

I had forgotten that the set I had completed gave me a boost to my charisma. A boost of 1 point per level. This was not the same kind of boost as the individual pieces of the lingerie set, rather a natural boost to my own attractiveness. As I quickly checked my stats I realized my charisma was already a massive 15 points naturally. That was on par with Hylia. With the bonuses of my equipment it boosted the total to over 20, which was unheard of. While the screen was open I decided to truly look over my stats.

I had grown a lot with the 30 levels I recieved, and had gained a lot of coins for the shop. I brought this up to Hylia, and we decided it would be a good idea to spend what we had stashed, and the dungeon liked to throw us at unpredictable challenges.

The first thing I bought was [Improved Dual Casting] for 10,000 coins. It reduced the penalties for my offhand weapon by half, meaning my casting with it would be both faster and more accurate.

This left me with 15,000 coins and I already knew what to look for. My set Items would not allow me to wear armor, and anything I put over them would be destroyed. So I was looking for some clothing that I would be able to wear, something that was likewise industructable.

There was a surprisingly a lot of clothing that fit my description, and most of them were relatively cheap. Around 50 coins for an article. When I thought about it made sense, as adventurers would constantly need to change their clothes due to battles if this was not the case. The only thing was that these items were not actually Industructable, rather they were self repairing, and would repair as long as a single thread remained.

I browsed through the clothes for a while, before a came upon an outfit that was perfect for my needs. It was actually a clothing set that was designed for assassins. When wearing all of it it improved the users stealth, granting 10% of stealth's effects to be in effect even if the user was not using stealth. All of the outfit had to be worn for the effect to be active. What really attracted me to the set was that it came with a mask that covered from the nose down.

The entire outfit was black, with tight fitting black pants, a form fitting black crop top that clung tightly to chest, the mask, and a pair of combat boots. The entire outfit cost 1000 coins, I bought it without thinking twice.

I still had 14,000 coins left, but had no idea what to spend them on. I would look for spells, but the dungeon seemed content giving me them as rewards. The only thing I could think of was to perhaps upgrade my wands.

When I looked through I was actually surprised by the total amount of wands available, and they had all sorts of sizes and shapes. I had originally used the pistols because I recieved the first one for free, but I was by no means actually attached to them.

I spent hours pouring through the wands, until I finally came to a set that I knew I had to have. The total cost of the set was 13,000 coins. Which was much higher than any of the others. A single basic wand was only around 1000 coins. and the off hands were around double that. The more features you added the more expensive they were.

I would be able to purchase a great quality wand for my off hand and main hand for a total of 10,000 coins. And yet this set was 3000 coins more expensive, but even then I thought it was cheap.

Set Bonuses:

A pair of gloves once worn by the Necromancer King. This set of gloves are limited to those who specialize in the art of necromancy.

1. Increases growth of necromancy spells by 2x

2. Increases power of necromancy spells by 2x

3. (Locked)

4. (Locked)

5. (Locked)

Needless to say the gloves were amazing. They were perfect for me. It was likely that I was able to find them solely because of my high luck stat. I purchased them without a second thought. After all. who better to wear these gloves than the heir of the man who they belonged to.

The gloves were fingerless gloves made of a tight black leather. They were like having a second skin, and were rather pleasurable to have on.

I placed my pistols in my inventory. They had been a partner to me, and I was reluctant to get rid of them. When I was done buying I saw that Hylia had made only a single purchase. Next to her was a gigantic maul. It had a two sided head. one of them was a broad flat surface, what you would normally see in a maul or hammer. The other side was a cone ending in a sharp point.

She seemed rather proud of her purchase and showed it off to me with glee.

[Maul of the Earth Titan]

A maul specially designed by the ancient dwarves using techniques that have been lost through the ages. The maul is used of the strongest holy metals around, and can be imbued with the holy energy of a diety. One side is flat, and can causing crushing blunt blows, the other his sharp, and pierce through the strongest of defenses.

She smiled at me, obviously she was not yet done. "I also went ahead and purchased a class ability. It cost all 30 of my points, but synergizes well with my new weapon."

[Holy Energy]

You are a conduit for Holy Energy, your blood runs thick with its power. You can charge your body with holy element at will.

Seeing that she had went ahead of me and purchased her class abilities already, I quickly chose the abilities I had had my eyes on for a while.

[Shadow movement] (class ability)

While stealthed user can move from shadow to shadow instantaneously. Must start and end in shadow. 500mp per movement. Cost 25 Sp

[Sneak attack] (class ability)

Attacks from stealth do twice the normal damage. Cost 7 sp

The combined total of the two completely wiped out my skill points, but I knew that my fighting style would have evolved once again.
