“Uh, boss? Shouldn’t you look at where the shots are co from?”

“If I did that, then there would be no point in testing this skill…”

The intent of this test was if he could react to a fast inco at it It would be somewhat easy to do it for him as he was a tier 2 class holder with enhanced reflexes

What he wanted to do, is to see if his parallel thinking trait was as fast enough to help hi at the muzzle of the runic launcher himself He could still see Bernir to the side but his attention was elsewhere on a particular scratch on his fence

Bernir could do nothing but shrug and aim the runic weapon If Roland hadhe knew that he could not change it He knew that the orbs were hollow and would not cause lasting dae even if they hit Roland

“Are you ready?”

“Sure, fire the for the body”

Roland got ready as a little green glow appeared on his helmet This runic spell traveled towards his eyes and made them shi+ne in the same hue This spell somewhat enhanced his vision and would aid him in this test He was not quite convinced of his own physical capabilities and wanted to test it first with some help

The first orb traveled towards hih his attention was on other things, out of the corner of his eye he was following Bernir’s every move

This new trait allowed him to see his assistant lean forward and take aier was pulled even though he was aze elsewhere

Thus he stepped to the side just in time for it to pass him and for the next one to be fired While it wasn’t hard to concentrate on the first and second shot, the more pellets traveled his way the more concentration it required

This new skill seeht Norh tih to evade this speedy projectile

“Okay, that’s enough”

Roland started rubbing his chin while looking at the pellets that he had dodged While he was able to do this when the weapon was right in front of hi froe points?

His class was Runes behind hi device to detect hidden eneical traps than hi to notice that soe how far away they were But this didn’tin ood eyes, he was thinking of i a small aid into his next helmet Did he really need to keep the detection device in orb form and activate it constantly?

What if he placed it in his hel behind hiwas at his blind spots

Then it could be improved to a sort of ca there With his Parallel Thinking trait, he could still keep his eyes on it while dealing hatever was in front of hiht need to switch to some sort of battle class to protect hi that he should focus ht have been depending on crafted items too much but so were classes like ht weapon in their hands they would not be able to unleash all of their skills

Roland's weapon in this situation was his brain and all of his crafted creations that he could bring along His biggest advantage over others was that he could customize his weapons and also prepare h this also put hie While a swordsman only needed one sword, he needed a whole lotspells Then he also needed specialized weapons for certain situations Like for the Ruby Goleehaht be able to ole on his dungeon runs Having theeon would probably increase the exploration costs

What he really needed was a certain storage technology The goles so he would be able to place them in spatial items This would conserve valuable mana fuel that was needed for the that he illing to put his research into but there was a sic was quite the difficult field and runesmiths were not really the scholarly type

This was also why all of the storage bags that he had coet his hands on that knowledge but he was refused by the only person that could make that true

The kitty professor apparently didn’t think that he was ready to delve into that field ofto run before being able to walk It seemed that he would need to prove hiave away the spatial runes

“I think we shouldn’t do things like this here boss”

Bernir called out to hie fence that was reinforced with logs One of the orbs was e it out an indention was left behind

“You ain before going back inside to go back to work on his golem Now equipped with the new trait he wondered howup with his gole with the expansion He was deliberating on buying up more land around his ho far away fro spike in prices just yet But when he actually ht see it as an opportunity to expand towards this location

There were alreadymade to build up taverns outside of the city While it was erous it was also not taxed as er and had their own little bands of mercenaries ready to protect their assets

While Roland would do nothing olems all over his property, this dream was a bit far-fetched It would probably take years till he would have enough skill andlike that

Instead, he would need to add more people to his side One was the shop attendant which he still hoped to give to Elodia The other would be to so

“I guess it’s ti system in this world is a lot easier than in the old one”

Roland co down into his workshop in which he would spend the reht's rest, it was time to head into the city where he would check the prices of land once more

Then only two days fro and he could finallyto do for many years, start his own little business
