Chapter 56: Cold Mercy

***

[New Quest]

[Save the Village]

[Mapaku Village is about to be destroyed by molten lava, save it from its demise.]

[Rewards: 40,000 Exp, Killer of Queens, ??? Snake Skin.]

Sokka accepted the mission, there was no reason to refuse. So he accepted it and kept staring as Aunt Wu came to the highlighted stage and read the clouds. The villagers cheered as the message was positive, saying that the village wouldn't be destroyed by the volcano and that the harvest will be good. 

As always, Sokka sighed in disappointment. From what he had seen so far, Aunt Wu seemed to believe in her fate reading. This was a lot more dangerous than being a normal scammer. 

Vague phrases and promises were words that he wouldn't trust from someone like her.

Seeing the cheering people, Sokka doesn't say anything and just observes. His eyes were like that of a hawk, observing everything around him. This village couldn't be saved from its naivety. No matter how he looked at the situation, he simply couldn't help someone who didn't want to be helped.

In the end, he strolled through the market while Aang and Katara were practicing waterbending close by. Kiwi and Momo were with them too.

Sokka looked through the stalls, trying to find anything worth it. He had invested quite a lot in Luck, so he hoped to be able to find a hidden treasure in a junk store for cheap.

He traveled through many stores and bought some things that caught his eye, putting them in his inventory.

[Coal-encrusted diamond.]

[A rock that has golden coins hidden in it]

[Earthbending Scroll]

He picked these things because he saw value in them. Though the latter was useless for him. Sokka, just to test it, tried to learn the earthbending scroll as the notification to learn it appeared.

[Error!]

[You have no relation with any earthbender in your family.]

[You haven't been granted earthbending from the ???? ??????]

[You also don't have ????? or ???? to learn multiple bendings] 

As he had expected it wasn't possible for now to learn multiple bendings. While the Gamer Interface could push the limits of what it meant to be human, it still wasn't able to destroy those limits.

Still, finding any bending scroll was hard. In rural parts like these, finding one in a shop so cheap was impossible… almost impossible.

As evening came about, Sokka went all over the village and bought barrels. He assumed different identities by using the Transformation Jutsu. This way he wouldn't draw suspicion, even if he did, they weren't used for anything big so no one would care. 

He approached a water stream, that was almost big enough to be a river, and took out a bunch of the barrels he had brought with him.

-Sokka POV-

Where is my heaven-defying treasure?! I put all of those status points into luck. Just what kind of luck did those MC have that found heaven-defying treasures in each corner shop.
