Spending my retirement in a game

chapter 31

Eisen looked through the notifications excitedly and surprised. That was definitely quite a potion, although he wasn't sure if it would be worth 50 Gold to him.

However, as there were three Traits which he didn't know about, Eisen waited until his final judgment, and then inspected all of them.

[Trait - Truesight]

[Effect] See through anything. Lies, perception, and any other trick

[Activation] Constant

[Trait - Perfect Fighter]

[Effect] Reflexes are raised greatly, and your body moves instinctively to defend against attacks and counter them.

[Activation]Enter Combat

[Trait - Golden Body]

[Effect] Your body grows much harder, but also heavier, although it retains its flexibility. Skin will take on a slight golden tint.

[Activation] Constant

Alright, Eisen changed his mind. This definitely seems to be worth it. When fighting against someone, God's Bane will definitely give someone a great advantage. Higher Perception, Fighting Ability, and Defense. If someone truly needed that, 50 Gold may even be a low amount.

Morrom stared at Eisen and smiled excitedly. "And? Did it work? Did you break through?!" He yelled and Eisen smiled back, nodding slowly. "Yes. I've broken through the Alchemy Skill, and my Limitbreaker Title is at four now."

"And?! It gives you a bonus of four to every stat, right? Oh, and what did the description say?" Morrom asked curiously, and even Bree couldn't help herself and leaned in to listen closely.

"Haha, don't worry, I'll tell you two all that I can. Yes, it gives me a bonus of four to every stat. And the description says 'By Breaking the limits of four of your skills, you showed the gods you stand by their side'."

"'You stand by their side', huh? Can't wait to see what's next! Should we move onto Enchanting right away?!" Morrom asked excitedly, already beginning to clear the table of all the tools that were laying on it.

But before he could even prepare the items needed for enchanting, Eisen stopped him. After all, it was getting quite late, and Eisen had the Duel tomorrow.

"Sorry, I can't today. How about tomorrow afternoon? That should work, right?" Eisen suggested, and Morrom looked sad for a second, and then nodded. "Yeah, that's fine. Just come whenever you want. Enchanting itself doesn't take that much time anyway."

"Haha, got it. Well, I think we should go for the day, then. Do you want to join us for Dinner?" Eisen asked and winked at Bree, showing her that it's time to go soon and that she should get her backpack ready.

"Hm? Oh, yeah! Sure! But before that, the God's Bane..." Morrom said, and Eisen immediately nodded.

"Right, sorry. Here it is. Seems like it didn't turn out as a normal one would have." Eisen explained and handed Morrom the potion.

"Oh, I expected that! Even if you break through a skill, usually the item has lesser effects than it would have naturally of that rank. But anyway, that's not what I meant. I wanted to pay you. After all, you're the one that made it and spent about three hours doing it. I want to split the profits in half if that's fine to you? So for now, you and I would both get 15 Gold. If the potion sells for any more than that, I'll give you half of that as well."

"Wow, yeah! Thanks for that! I was looking for a way to make money anyway!" Eisen laughed and agreed, after which Morrom walked behind a shelf and came back out with 15 small, golden coins.
