All three of the girls looked at Kirou in confusion at his question. For them, while they knew about the NPCs having an affinity rating for each player, so far they haven't heard about anyone having an affinity rating of friendly with any NPC, much less a greater affinity rating. Thinking up to here, all three girls responded by shaking their heads.
Kirou had somewhat expected this but seeing that neither of the three had managed to accomplish this, especially Reya whom he had traded materials with the first time, it seems that he should research that later on when he had time. That being said, Kirou displayed for them the stats of his fur coat and spoke, "This is an item I received from an NPC that I had a friendly affinity with, moments before it was raised to intimate. You tell me if it is a good item or not."

Equipment Description
Kirou and gang only had to wait a dozen or so minutes later for the twenty-foot long snake boss finally bit the dust. Although he was originally interested in seeing them in action, Kirou quickly grew bored with how the group fought. That isn't to say that the team of players that the Sanming Sect sent up to deal with the boss were weak by any standard, as Kirou could clearly tell that these were all elite players. That being said, Kirou had no interest in the fight as he could tell that their movements had a bit of the system's guidance in it, meaning that they had set their gameplay modes to semi-auto. Kirou had no interest in seeing people being strong through such a method.With the fall of the Scarlet Eyed Boa, the mineral resource points in this section of the cave system started reappearing. Many of the sect's harvesters went forward to these resource points and got to work. Kirou only took a glance at this before walking forward to the place where Guardi
Kirou and Navi walked in silence as they headed to the entrance of the underground cave system. It was a fifteen-minute trip but the duo spent the time walking. As they walked, Navi couldn't stop herself from asking, "Did you have to do that to Guardian Knight? Considering the focus and speed you employed, I'm sure you harvested a lot of materials."Kirou shrugged as he responded to her, "Your sect was lucky. I was able to obtain some extra materials mainly due to the size of the boss and setting up a few things ahead of time. It's not something that can be repeated too many times, especially now that the system caught me doing it already. If I had to guess, if I try that again, the corpse will directly vanish instead of slowly turning into particles of light."Navi covered her mouth in shock as she listened to those words. Although she should have been used to it by now, Kirou somehow still managed to pull off something to surprise her. She
Appearing at the entrance to Elderwood Village, Kirou took some time to check out his current surroundings. Contrary to the hustle and bustle of players he saw when he had just started or even after the update, the village was now back to its rural village persona, with few players both entering and leaving at any given point. Kirou saw this and guessed that most players either grew tired of the quests here and opted to head to SC Pier City or they've gone even further and started making their marks on the other continents.To Kirou, this was a good thing as he needn't put up with the eyes of other players when he pulled out something extraordinary from his inventory. With this in mind, instead of rushing to Bladesmith as he originally intended, Kirou made a beeline towards the other NPCs within the village. Since he was nearby, he might as well make use of their facilities for his work. First on his list just so happened to be General Store Manager Almia, who h
Looking at the system prompt, Kirou sank into contemplation for a moment. As a formerly trained assassin, he has learned to use many weapons close to mastery level, but he never took that final step. While this can be attributed to him focusing on too many at once, thus making it hard to achieve mastery in each, it is also a fact that he never tried to achieve such a level with them as well. Thinking back, out of his entire arsenal, Kirou has truly only mastered the use of three weapons; his knives, the gunblade tonfa, and his wires, and the main reason for that was due to them being the very first three weapons he learned to use from his bastard master before he started to diverge his talents on other weapons.With all that thinking done, Kirou took a deep breath before releasing a sigh as he thought to himself, 'If I ignore the others, my main choices are just those three. That means I truly only have three chances to do this. Since that's the case, let's go w
With the gloves in-hand, Bladesmith started examining every nook and cranny that he could find on them. He even went as far as trying them on himself to get a feel for it before taking them off and scrutinizing them once more. Kirou watched as Bladesmith did this without saying a single word or batting an eye. Kirou just watched as Bladesmith examined his gloves to his heart's content without getting into the senior weapon master's way.After scrutinizing the gloves for a few minutes, Bladesmith finally returned them to Kirou before speaking, "You definitely made another new weapon, lad. I've been around for a good while now and I've never seen another weapon master create a weapon as unique as this one. It looks like you've got a knack for these things."Kirou put on the gloves and cupped his hands towards Bladesmith before speaking, "Your words are too kind, Senior. This pair of gloves isn't anything new, as it was something that my master
While Kirou was busy facing the grind that is his weapon mastery, that doesn't mean that he was the only one within his group currently doing so. On the northeastern end of the Southen Continent currently finds a player and his pet doing combat against a group of orcs. What was special about this combo was that the pet was a five-meter tall minotaur wielding two stone axes and the player was a mage with a medallion for a weapon. Naturally, this duo was the Arcane Summoner Mistaken Fox and his summoned creature, the Stone Axe Minotaur.Unlike his usual style of combat where he is on the front lines, Mistaken Fox was now standing at a distance, chanting continuously in an unknown language while the Stone Axe Minotaur was on the front lines, tanking the damage and occupying the attention of all five orcs. As the orcs struggled to deal with the Stone Axe Minotaur, Mistaken Fox kept launching arcane missiles in their direction, dealing large amounts of uninterrupted
Somewhere to the south of Stone Mountain Range. The date has already changed since Kirou started working on his quest and he's now quite a good distance away from Elderwood Forest, where he originally started.Kirou was currently locked in combat with a few earth-attributed monsters that took the form of bulls. There were over twenty and with each charge, Kirou was forced to dodge wide as each bull had elongated horns on top of their heads. With that being the case, Kirou could no longer go it alone without the threat of him making a mistake growing, so he summoned out a few shadow clones, along with Tank to help him out. Unlike Mistaken Fox who could make use of monster medallions in place of actual weapons, Kirou himself wasn't able to make use of this trick so the system didn't stop him from taking out said medallion to summon out Tank.With each combatant now responsible for five bulls each, the somewhat intimidating herd lost its feroci
After spending a few hours checking out her giant main body for any possible errors, a certain loli dark elf finally managed to satisfy her paranoia and had now decided to return to her terminal (the globe). Upon sitting down in the chair next to it and tapping on the terminal, as if it was routine, the loli narrowed her search into finding a certain werewolf.At first, when the terminal started playing his footage for the last few hours, the loli released a sigh of relief as the werewolf hadn't done anything crazy while she was busy. She kept watching for a few minutes more until she finally decided that it should have been safe. Just as she was about to swap the terminal's display to somewhere else, the scene of Kirou's attack on that one bull using his wires to form a blade-like weapon grabbed her attention. She herself didn't know why but seeing that action prompted an alarm bell to go off within her mind.Instead of switching displays,
