Daring people like Weed, in search of adventure, often chose to start off in the capital of small kingdoms, like Rosenheim. Usually these players would then head to large populated cities where it was easier to get a good weapon, join a good party, and roam without straying far from the city gates.

At the main gate of Liberty City, there was a flock of people surrounding one person. He wore a strange helmet, a necklace, a cloak, and conspicuous white gloves.

“If you leave me your stuff, I’ll fix it for free, and it’ll be as good as new! If you bring me your leather or fabric, then I’ll make you good clothes! If you bring me ore, then I’ll give you a weapon or armor! If you bring me meat, I’ll make you delicious food! In addition, the food I roast will increase your vitality by at least 150 points! And it’s delicious!”

Nevertheless, such cries did not attract many players. The main reason was because the man offering his services was poorly dressed and badly armed.

“Is it true that if I bring you meat, it’ll increase vitality?”

“I have a few skin pouches; can you really make them into clothes?”

However, the crowd shot down the few hopefuls, and shook their heads disapprovingly.

“Another impostor has appeared.”

“Guys, do not fall for the hype. It’s just a ploy to gain your items and escape.”

“Yeah, a lot of new players do this, there are types of people like him.”

“Think with your head. He sews clothes, prepares meals, repairs and forges weapons – have you ever heard of such a man? This is a scam!”

“Man, if you’re a newbie, do something else, go hunting. Why do you try to fool other players? Ay-ay-ay …”

After hearing such talk, many players grew angry.

“Oh, you dirty bastard!”

“Get out of here, you liar!”

The man at the gate was called Weed.

Standing calmly, he quietly listened to the torrent of insults. Yes, it was unpleasant but that was life. If you think about it, they were not wrong to suspect him. It would pretty much be impossible to find someone that knew how to sew, cook, and forging.

Not to mention, Weed even knew how to sculpt and fish. Learning new skills was not easy. It wasn’t as simple as going to a guild and training. First, you had to work hard, and you had to develop the skills through constant repetition as Weed had. Therefore, to meet such a player in the game was somewhat incredible.

Even he wouldn’t have believed it if he were told of such a person in the beginning. But Weed wasn’t a newbie anymore. He was experienced in making money. Before, if he had so many players shouting and criticizing him, he would’ve experienced shock and tried to run away, but not this time.

During his empiricism, Weed sold hundreds of figurines, gained experience, and learnt how to measure the situation. He knew how, and what to do in order to squeeze out the maximum profit even when selling something simple. Weed was a professional in these matters.
