Soul Trader

"Big brother you wash the dishes, I'm going to sleep." Said Mia as she skipped lightly to our room to sleep.

I was sitting there in kitchen thinking about my plans for the future. I already obtained a class and profession, what I'm currently missing are second profession, weapons and attack spells, well at least for now, second profession isn't my priority right now because the one I need is at town, for the question of my weapons I need to finish up with my current goal before obtaining them, by that time I think I'll also be in town and considering attack spells, I have temporary solution but nothing permanent for now, I hope my class will give me something useful.

Unconsciously I finished the dishes and I caught my self groping for next dish but it's all washed, I should just go to sleep, most of the things I want now I can't get unless I finish some things first so it's pointless thinking over it again, I should just go to sleep.

And with those thoughts I went to sleep, I tucked in Mia before I lay down on my bed.

…

Early morning, my alarm still didn't kick off and I'm awake staring at the ceiling above me. Time for some workout I guess. I stood up from my bed and changed into my tracksuit as I went for my morning jog.

Damn it's somewhat chilly this morning, well it's November so it doesn't surprise me that much. I start with my stretching before I started jogging, after some time I passed by old dojo I went to, that place is where I learned most things I know now, even though more than half of those things were what Gab instructed me and showed me how to do it. I decided I should go and check them up once I'm done with my jog. Somewhere at the half of my jog just after as I turned around to jog backwards my phone rang and I picked it up.

"Hey Marko, what's up?"

"Hey Yan, how's your progress, haven't heard from you in last two days so I wanted to check." Said Marko in his usual lazy and carefree voice, for someone of his stature most people would say he an aggressive type of guy with muscles for brains but he is far from that description. Academically he was highest ranked student in his school and he didn't even study, he would just laze around in classes and do nothing, worst part of it was that his teachers couldn't do a single thing to him since he had perfect score. I won't even mention his physical fitness; he's like a mini hulk…

"Oh I didn't? My bad, I had intentions of calling you guys but I guess I was too occupied with my goals so I somewhat forgot."

"So, tell me what's up then, need any help?"

"I picked up both profession and class, I'm still getting used to it though, too much info's at one time so I guess I need some time to digest everything, oh I also think I found myself a sponsor and trade partner, allegedly it is a guild from some other game that is relocating here. About my current progress, well I'll go and get the carriage soon, I'm kind of running late on that one because I instructed my sister and her friends in basic combat a bit, so sorry about that…"

"What the f.u.c.k are you talking about, you talk like someone is rushing you with a whip to do everything at once, bro just relax, you were supposed to get your class and profession in first week and you did it on your first day, aren't you pushing yourself a bit too hard bro?"

"Oh right something unexpected happened, I bounded a wolf and I got a bloodline from it."

"It was supposed to happen if you used runes Gab showed you, he probably forgot to mention that to you but it's fine, it was also in his scope of plans so no harm done there, also we saw world notifications so no worry, how rich are you right now?"

"Um, slightly more than 80 gold if I remember correctly, why? If it's not enough I think I can get some more before weekend."

"F.u.c.k me, are you trying to kill me, did you rob someone to get those gold?"

"Technically, yes, but does it count as robing if you trick NPC boss?"

"Shit, now I lost a bet thanks a ton Yan…."

"Wait, a bet? What bet it's a first time I heard of it?"

"Well, guys and me had a bet between ourselves how long will it take you to start robing NPC's in game, Gab wasn't allowed to gamble so everyone just made random date, looks like Enzo won, he said you won't even need a full week, gosh you really are a gold digger aren't you Yan? Anyway you are rushing too fast, just take your time to relax some bro, you are too far ahead of everyone else, you can afford some chill time."

"I did chill a bit, I was taking a stroll through the plains but someone disturbed my peace with sounds of combat so I went and checked it out…" Before I even managed to finish Marko interrupted me.

"Let me guess, you were angry and decided to punish them by robbing them of probably an elite or something."

"No, it was rare monster, and they did deserve it."

"You never change Yan… Well that's a good thing at least, it could've been worse, like Ten's bragging for an example."

"Hey why is that considered a flaw, it's not like I robbed them without reason or rime."

"Well it isn't a flaw to you, that's why it's called self-righteous justice, that still isn't same as general justice, doesn't matter anyway justice nowadays is screwed beyond repair. Oh right I almost forgot, you need anything?"

"Oh I do actually, send me a two pigeons, one for myself and one for Mia, I don't have time to grab one from city so this way it will be faster at least. Um I also need some gems to practice inscription and stuff, and before I forget if you get some good healer class or magic tank class in written forward it to me I need that for something."

"Oh, a trade?"

"You could say so; let's say I'm doing someone a favor so they can do me a favor later."

"So scheming, I like it, okay I'll check with everyone, you should get everything today noon at last, I'll see what I can do about those classes you asked me for, and I presume you don't want just any regular class?"

"Healer has to be super OP, it's for Mia, magic tank is for her friend, her sister is my potential sponsor and trade partner."

"Hm not love interest?"

"Like I have time for games…"

"Well actually you do, and you should try finding someone for yourself."

"I have one girl to take care of and my hands are full as it is, I don't need more trouble…"

"Oh just you wait 'till I tell Mia you called her trouble." That evil chuckle of his, I am doomed if he rats on me but I know he won't, but just to make sure…

"Don't you freaking dare or else…"

"Or else what, are you threatening me Yan?"

"I'll leave it to your imagination, but I wonder what your girlfriend would say if she knew that you have fake bottom in your bottom most drawers."

"Oi you little f.u.c.ker, you want war?"

"It's a trade brother; your silence buys my silence."

"You really are a born merchant you know that, you could probably even sell sin to God…"
