YM778.TV Chapter 205 Victim (1)
Jake frowned a bit after mastering the first two items, he couldn\'t start making the three types of potions right now, but it seemed like there were other types that he wasn\'t aware of and they weren\'t being sold at the dungeon shops or being dropped… That was good to know. In any case, Jake didn\'t need many health potions, but he could always keep them close by when he needs to be reckless, which was pretty often. After a short while, he also mastered the third item. The bonus in parameters wasn\'t that good and they wouldn\'t help much in his fighting style, but it was better than nothing.
Congratulations! You have become a Level one Merchant!

You obtained 01 status point.
Jake finally obtained the power to sell loot at the dungeon shop, he would lose some coins, but it was better than wasting time looking for buyers. He didn\'t know if he could sell materials of monsters as well, but that much was fine for the time being. In any case, just when he was about to leave, Jake recalled that he didn\'t check the shop for an item that would grant him gravity Resistance. That skill bothered him quite a bit during the last mission, so he couldn\'t afford not to learn it. Fortunately, he found a shield that would grant him that skill… It cost 200 thousand coins, the most expensive item that he could buy at the moment.
Mystic Shield (0%)
Willpower + 15, Mentality + 15, Gravity Resistance. Master this item to obtain its effects permanently.
Durability: 70/70
Gravity Resistance: decreases the damage and effects caused by gravity attacks by one point per level.
The shield had a weird format, it was rectangular at the top and triangle-like at the bottom… It could be used with Boomerang Shield, but using the shurikens to enhance that would be difficult. Jake\'s previous shield was better in that aspect.
In any case, Jake decided to keep the shield and use it in certain situations. It would be a waste to sell it back for fifty thousand coins. After mastering that shield, Jake returned to his base and decided to experiment with his new skills. However, he noticed that the air in the area was different. Something was off and he learned a long time ago not to doubt his instints.
"Did they finally find me?" Jake thought while looking around.
Jake wasn\'t good at that kind of stuff, but it was weird that he didn\'t see any signs of humans in that place. He had memorized the environment completely to help him with that and yet… Moving around might be a bit dangerous, but he couldn\'t find any other solution to that situation.
Nevertheless, Jake activated Stealth and then began to head toward the starting point of the region. He wouldn\'t let anyone arrive on his territory in search of him without giving them a proper welcome.
Although it wasn\'t snowing, Jake frowned because he didn\'t find signs of anyone around. Still, he kept going because his instincts never failed him. After a while, Jake left the forest that divided his home from the plains between the mountains of the area and he found a single person fighting against some frozen Grizzlies… While Jake watched that figure struggling against three of those monsters, Jake walked around the border of the forest and he confirmed that no one had approached the forest.
"It seems that my instincts warned me of the scent of blood," Jake said while looking around and seeing the corpses of some Grizzlies.
It is rare for people to come to this area and it is even more rare for them to stay while fighting alone. Jake got lucky because most people hated the cold of that world, so they skipped the Grizzlies\' missions altogether and they headed to the next one. That was one of the reasons as to why he liked that world... people couldn\'t understand the appeal of snow and cold. They give him so much peace of mind... maybe he was just that weird.
In any case, Jake planned to leave the area before that guy could find any traces of him and bother him directly or indirectly by spreading information about the fact that Jake had a base there. Still, Jake stopped when he saw that guy defeating the monsters and immediately falling on the snow afterward. It seemed to be odd to be a trap. If it were one, he just had to watch the guy be killed by the monsters... it would be a half-assed strategy at best... However, he felt that it wasn\'t a trap.
"What a pathetic end, to fall alongside the enemies…" Jake said and then sighed.
Since that was probably the limit of that person, Jake thought that letting them die would be for the best. However, he wondered if he should do that when he saw some of the frozen Grizzlies approaching that guy. It was for the first time that Jake realized that his conscience was so annoying… it was almost screaming in his head to prevent that death.
"The hell I am doing… I don\'t have time for this," Jake thought and then used his Boomerang Shield when the monsters got close to that guy.
The shield bounced and then hit on the faces of the three monsters. While it didn\'t kill them, it made them lose quite a lot of blood. The monsters had their vision blurred thanks to it and then Jake used his Shuriken to destroy their heads.
