Chapter 22: The brothers (1/2)
Shingi started focusing on the orders. Since he had decided not to use any magic or mana, not even to help shape the metal as he did with Mithril, things would be slower. He organized the orders and started working on a few nails and chains and quite a few metallic kitchen cookware. Those seemed to be a fair amount of the orders but no knives for a reason.
Garry had left with the materials to use some more blueprints for those general items. This time, Shingi had used them cause he was most familiar with creating weapons and not this type of thing, but it wasn't so hard to learn how with those.
He worked on multiple ones simultaneously, which wasn't an easy thing to do since there were numerous orders of the same thing.
As time passed and got a few hours before the shops would start closing, Shingi ended his last creation that he had decided to craft for today. He put it at the side with the rest of the same order's items. He already organized them in different bags to be given to the customer right away without looking through other orders. He had almost a dozen of bags that, even if they weren't too large most of them putting them would be impossible to handle for one of his size.
He could use his stick enchantment to stick the smaller and lighter bags with the others to handle multiple ones. As long he was feeding the enchantment with mana as if wouldn't, it would end. This would take a lot of mana, and he had decided not to use any unless having no other choice.
So he had to take leave and return multiple times to deliver them all. And so he did, and this was an excellent time to train his new ACCELERATION, STEALTH, and MARTIAL ART skills. Combining them gave him better control of his body and increased his speed like a parkour master. However, he was still much slower than he was in his Player's body. He needed time to adjust to this body, and also, his stats being much lower weren't allowing him to use these skills at their full power even if they have a high rank.
As he worked on deliveries, unexpected notifications that he hadn't seen for a while appeared cause he was of pushing his body that much with using those skills.

He spent almost an hour going around the town, delivering orders and getting the payments for them. He even had to 'persuade' a few as they learned on that day not to mess with this young man.
After delivering the last thing, he started his look around for a specific Player.
'Hineko probably will be around the storehouse' [Shingi]
He made his way over there, but this time, he focused even more on STEALTH than before this time.
It didn't take him long, and he came across the one he was looking over, and as he expected, he wasn't alone. There was with him one more Player, and it was a young man looking just like Hineko. He was wearing arcane ropes and had a long dark brown wooden staff at hand with a blue gem attached at the top part of it.
Shingi looked over them for some time, and he understood that they were looking around, most likely waiting for him. And so, after making sure there wasn't anyone else around, he appeared right behind them and coughed twice.
Both of them were jumped, scared like their life was in danger, and they turned to see the source of the noise.
”Oh.... you are here. I came as I promised, but I brought my little brother with me. Hope you don't mind.” [Hineko]
”Nice meeting you. My name is Mizuneko” [Mizuneko]
The new guy bowed towards Shingi after introducing himself. It seems he was aware of what happened when he met with his brother, and they both seemed to pay attention to the way they acted.
'Good. This will make things way easier' [Shingi]
”Stand up and follow me both of you”[Shingi]
He started his way and led both of them at the storehouse he used for his Mana Tree creation, and he sat over at the box he was using then.
”So the two of you. What is your level and skills, and don't try to hide anything, or I will know.” [Shingi]
