Chapter 25 - (25) Bit Of Advice (2/2)

The two men with the clubs stepped forward after his greeting, one of them looked at him with an eyebrow raised. ”Hey, aren't you...”

He was quickly cut off. ”Sorry, but it's best that you forget that name. I'll be going by Geth for now.”

The man quickly nodded. ”Alright Geth, thank you for helping us, this is the third time these fuckers have ambushed us. There were more this time, and they were stronger.”

Geth just nodded as he listened, and when the man was done speaking he pointed to their makeshift shelter. ”That's the reason the creatures are being lured to you. If you don't destroy that and leave, the next group will likely be more than you can handle.” After saying that, he thought for a moment. ”It could also be used as a way to Level up quickly, but you have your families to consider.”

The man just looked at him confused and asked, ”What would they want without shelter? It's barely a shack.”

Geth gave him a simpler explanation of what Albus had told him. The man's eyes briefly shone with understanding, and then hesitancy. How could he provide shelter if they couldn't build?

Geth could understand what he was thinking. ”It wouldn't be as comfortable, but you can use the large leaves from the trees and hang them on lower branches. Make a type natural structure, it seems to me that the Mana doesn't want the pureness of this planet being interrupted.” He said. ”You may still receive an occasional attack from creatures, but it shouldn't be to this scale.”

Relief showed on the man's face, he knew that it was speculation, but at least it was a direction that they could go in. He asked a few more questions, about how Geth had gotten so strong, where his family was, and where he'd gotten his equipment.

He short answered most of the questions, but he did explain a bit to them about Talents and Skills. ”It looks like most of you are Level 5, so you should have received a TP and an option for your first Talent, your Grimoire can explain to you exactly what those are.”

Geth walked over and picked up something from the Level 10 Goblin's corpse. ”This is a Skill card, when you kill your first enemy creature that has its own Grimoire, it's guaranteed to drop a Skill.” He handed it over to the man he was talking to, as he'd delivered the final blow.

”Pick up these weapons to keep, they are free gifts along with the experience and cores. And the biggest piece of advice I can give you is to not look at your Grimoire as a book but as a sentient being.. They are intelligent, and you could have learned this information from them this whole time.”
