Chapter 2: Chance Meeting

First, let's talk about the skill tree.

A skill tree is a set of skills you can have on certain jobs. You allocate [Skill Points] in order to unlock skills that are present in the skill tree.

When choosing a job, there are certain skills that are automatically achieved. However, they're not part of the skill tree.

Skill trees can be gained from a [Skill Tree Book], where some are sold, some are found deep in the dungeons. There are [Skill Tree Books] for basic skills for certain jobs that are sold cheap since it can be massed produced.

Advanced or higher skill trees however, cannot be massed produced and are very pricey, also, most of these are usually the ones found in a dungeon. They have better and more efficient skills so if the player wants to be strong, having one of this is a must.

Of course, there are skills that you can obtain through a separate one which is called [Skill Scroll], it does not need any [Skill Point] in order to unlock, one just has to accomplish the requirements and they will be able to use the skill.

Now, Lucas, who has been stuck inside the cave, has no skill tree. Since getting the [Wanderer] job, Lucas needs to get skill trees from other jobs so that his job will be of use.

"Haah...well, I guess I'm grateful for it since I won't have to trouble myself in searching for [Skill Tree Books] for this job."

Since his is a hidden job, there isn't likely for there be any [Skill Tree Book] that can be bought in a city. He needs to find his is a dungeon somewhere in this vast world. And that would be a serious pain to do so he was really grateful for the effect.

Anyway, he still needs money. So he went to the local Merchant Guild to exchange his loots from the cave.

"Excuse me, how much can you give me with these?"

"Ah yes welcome, please wait for a moment for me to check the goods."

The merchant took on a business smile and took the loots from Lucas. Then, he revealed a shocked expression all of a sudden.

After seeing his expression, Lucas finally understood why and can only blame himself from not noticing.

What he gave was loots from [Dracula Bat], [Crypt Owl], [Alpha Grey Wolf], [Eye Bat] and several equipments and items from the demi-vampires they captured.

Meaning, unique monsters that were only seen on a certain popular movie.

Yes, the one Lucas was in.

"Y-y-y-you're tha- mngf-!?"

It seems that the merchant wasn't an NPC, but a player that has watched the movie so he quickly shut his mouth by blocking it with his hand.

"Listen up. After this transaction, you didn't see or hear me. Also, if you trick me with the price, you're dead."

Lucas said this in a deep cold voice and slightly activated his [Dragon's Wrath] which only showed a bit of black aura since the [Rage] stat wasn't high.

The merchant immediately nodded as he figured out that he's the real deal.

Confirming the merchant's nodding, Lucas let go of the hand and quietly waited to get his money.

"E-err, this loots are actually very rare, since they are the first loot from an undiscovered...well, recently discovered monsters, coupled with the fact that they're from the actual loots from [The White Haired Adventurer]-!...sorry, I'm seriously excited right now."
