Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer

Back downstairs, I was looking through some good-looking books on magic, medicine, and alchemy, and surprisingly, there were normal books of today in this shop, too.

Normally being hard to get by romance s and stuff.

There were many good things here but, I was most interested in skills and special jewels.

I had money to buy whatever I wanted now, so I was really excited.

The card the owner gave me was just a normal storage device specially created for storing money.

Though only 'rice' people had these cards and they were mostly used to store large amounts of coins, and I was happy he gave me one himself.

Just the card was more than 200 gold, so having something like this was really convenient.

His shop was a good place too, I would say.

He actually had a section especially for skills.

Though I had knowledge like no other and the ability to store spells in my mind, I would still prefer using skill in most circumstances.

Easy to use, less suspicious, versatile.

Skills were better than my 'normal' spells in many cases and if you find more skills that suit you better, it would be a convenient thing.

I had combat skills, and the skills I already possessed were better but, from my current body limitations, I could still have two or three good skills.

The thought of having unlimited skills itself was foolish if someone actually thought about it.

The skill stone literary engraves the precoded spell on the body.

Just the fact that one would have the mental fortitude to have many skills and a strong enough body to support it would be amazing.

Normal people couldn't have a stronger skill with them. They would just die if they even tried to absorb three or so low-grade skill stones.

Even the normal mages of the lower tiers had the limit of four or five at max.

Even dad only had eight, like me, the last time I asked him some years ago.

I could have ten at the moment, so two was the limit if I were to have a stronger skill.

And from this fact, just the thought that Rein had twelve skills aside from her unique skill was enough to tell just how strong she was in the natural aspect.

And every one of her skills was perfect for her.

Maybe that was the power of having strong backing and open resources for a long time?

And she must be the one that chose those skills herself.

She could have even more skills if she wanted to, from what I can tell.

She was stronger than me if I thought about it, and had a strong mental fortitude of special witches specialized in physical and magical aspects.

But there were hardly any skills that would go well with her already perfect lineup.

Though there were many skills stones and even more special things in the endless treasury I had been to, I didn't get the chance to go there again after our goodbye.

There were countless precious things on the top floor, but it would be a long time for me to go back there.

so, all in all, I was looking through all the skill stones of different sizes, shapes, and colors with my 'eyes'.

There were many skills for the attack, defense, recovery, and things like that but, they weren't as good as the ones I already had.

And most of them were (Red), (Orange), and the highest were (Green) ranked skills.

Well, just the fact that these people had a total of 50 skill stones on their five shelves was enough to tell just how good this shop was, and... the owner had just thrown his wealth for some shiny stones.

Not that he would take long to build that back.

All he will have to do will be use his collection of other assets like houses, treasure chests, and the other kind of wealth he had.

The coins were the most common and normal form of currency people commonly used.

These coins would be easy to earn back against a once-in-a-lifetime chance to get his hands on those precious rocks.

What a fool...

[[ *Oh? Isn't that one good, Eon?* ]]

Lucy said as I was on a different train of thought and I looked at the place she mentioned.

And this one really was surprising.

[[ "Nice... something actually usable. Thank you, Lucy~!" ]]

She really was something else to notice this one from these countless screens opened before my eyes and stacked on each other.

Clearing the other screens that were nothing compared to this one, I looked at the young man on the other side.

He looked just normal with brown hair and black eyes, and the fear in his being was clear.

At least, this form was working well.

"That one," I said in the same heavy voice I had used, and he flinched in horror.

It must have felt like I would just rip him apart or something like that... how cute~.

With shaking hands, he took out a heart-shaped green-colored skill stone and set it before me.

'Three Eyes.'

============

[Vital Healing]

--->A skill that allows you to use your vitality to heal the target.

---> The healing process would depend on the vitality one possesses and you can decide how much you want to sacrifice your vitality.

---> The skill can also heal internal wounds, but the user would need a large amount of health for that.

---> This skill is (Yellow) ranked and from the group of plant-type monsters called (Green Fields Roselia).

---> The skill potential greatly varies from the one that possesses it.

---> You have great natural vitality and with the golden fruit you possess, we can even push the skill effect to a (tier-4) healing spell.

---> You should thank the one that pointed this marvelous skill to you, you eyed-blind person.

[Mana: 30]

============

'You should have done it yourself, you little. When will you learn, you little rascal?'

I sighed internally at the 'special' words of my dear skill and looked at the man at the counter.

Though he was as strong as a [Rank-2] knight, he was really terrified at the moment.

Poor him~.

"How much?" I asked with the same voice, and he slowed his head to avoid any kind of eye contact.

This one sure was afraid, without a reason.

"T-that one will be one platinum coin s-sir." He answered with the best of his strength, and I just nodded.

That was a good price, and I didn't like to do negotiations when buying small things like this one.

And it was a reasonable price from only their point of view.

For me, this was cheap for a skill that could be used endlessly as a high-level healing spell.

And if I said even a (tier-2) healing spell was as good as an intermediate potion on the market, I had a skill that could have a better effect than even the advanced healing potion.

And with mana recovery faster than 30 in a fight or danger, this skill was more than a lifesaver for me and others.

This was a nice find, and I was happy to be in this place.

I should thank Rein for this suggestion too, so taking her out for dinner-

I can think about those things after finishing my shopping.

There were many things I wanted to buy from this shop, as well as the shops on the outside.

I would try the normal stores on the main streets when I get my IDs too, so I was looking forward to going with her even more.

But more than that, I was worried about what might happen when I call home.

I don't know who was going to pick me up, but I was damn sure most of them would be there to fetch me.

I was just hoping they all didn't come running or anything like that. It would be a disaster.

[[ *Hehehe. Don't think too much, Eon. We don't know what will happen, so let's just go with it.

And it would be a good thing if they all do come there, no?

You will meet them all a bit early.* ]]

She was amazing sometimes. Saying things in a way grandma would say.

This was enough to tell why she was different from other answering skills.

Having a [Will] meant much more than being able to converse with others.

I could feel her, just like Celes and Zoe.

And this was a special feeling maybe only I could have.

[[ "Yes..." ]]

I sighed internally and took the skill stone after putting one platinum coin that was the same size as the gold coin and had the empire's great pattern on it.

I now had a new skill with me, my ninth non-unique skill.

And now I only needed a mind-blowing special skill to finish my ten-skill line-up.

But finding something that fascinating, even more than dad's water lasers, would be a tough task for me.

But, I knew I will get what I want from mom's auction house.

That place was THE BEST in the empire and I was looking forward to seeing it for a long time.

Of course, I was going to pay for things myself.

Even though it wasn't necessary, I wanted to do things on my own to some extent now.

And I knew she won't disagree with me on that one.

I knew where and how to invest the money as great as her, after all.

She was my mom... and I had to finish things here soon.

It will be lunchtime very soon and I was looking forward to the place we will be eating the things I brought to this world.

But... I could have never believed they had grown this much in this short time.

'Mom... oh mom.' She was an amazing person I couldn't help but respect.

With a deep sigh, I walked onto the other counter with books and elemental gemstones and the shopping continued.
