Chapter 44 - Shop And Missions (2/2)
...
[You have received 536 SP from selling items]
...
Without any sound or special effect whatsoever, the conspicuous sack miraculously disappeared into nothingness...
'Well, let's look at how many SP I've got now. Also, it's time to go shopping...'
With those thoughts in mind, Jeremy accessed the [Buy] option...
...
[Weapons]
[Clothes]
[Miscellaneous]
[Skills]
[Your Current Balance: 13,252 SP]
...
At the bottom of the interface, there was a new line stating about his current balance...
'13,252 huh... Let's see the items inside those options first. I wonder if they still remain the same or not.'
Having thought of that, Jeremy started accessing into the [Weapons] first, then [Clothes] later, only to find out that every item inside of those two options still remained the same as last time when he took a look at them, with nothing better than common ranked items.
[A/N: Common rank is the worst possible rank of item categories.]
'Well, there are two better-looking spears than my current steel spear displaying in the [Weapons] option, but they are in the same common rank with no magical power whatsoever, the same as my steel spear. As for the clothes, I don't particularly appreciate wearing those leather armors, their ventilating abilities are the worst, and I also have my mana projection to protect me all the time. So, I'd better wear this mysterious-looking hood instead.'
Shaking his head lightly, Jeremy proceeded on to the [Miscellaneous] option...
Currently, the interface in front of him had two choices to choose from, starting from [Daily Appliances], which consisted of many things. For example, cooking utensils, magical refrigerator, watching machine, watch, clock, magical microwave, kettle, magical toilet, and many more things.
The second one was [Consumables], which was consisted of those things that could be used only once or a specific number of times. For example, foods, water, medicine, herbs, mild poison liquids, cigarettes, alcohol drinks, carbonated drinks, snacks, cosmetics, shampoo, soap, flour, and many more things.
The list of items was as long as one could imagine...
'Let's just buy some toilets, for there might be an emergency happening like last time.'
As a result of him already bringing most necessary things from Earth, Jeremy decided to buy five toilets in total. Even though they might not look that expensive, still, each toilet cost Jeremy a whopping 100 SP.
That was, losing 500 SP for mere toilets just like that...
Still, a toilet was something unarguably important to our former sage...
To be more specific, it was for the sake of his pride and dignity that shouldn't be tarnished...
'After all that, I am left with 12,752 SP. Then, the last one, skills...'
After not finding any more attractive item from the [Miscellaneous] option, Jeremy proceeded to the last option, [Skills].

'With my 12,752 SP, I can buy literally any skill I want. However, I should buy only one or two skills that will be helpful for me in the immediate future first. Then after accumulating enough SP again, I will come back to buy other helpful skills for my distant future.'
After seeing as many as 186 skills on the list, Jeremy frowned deeply while thinking about practical skills for his current circumstances.
After all, there were 'some' skills that could be very helpful for him in the long run, but it would be immediately considered trash skills if he bought them right now, for their initial capability were like shit.
Those long-run skills needed time to grow...
So, the best and only choice for Jeremy to clear the hard-difficulty door without relying too much on his mana and magic was to choose the skills well.
After standing there, while thinking deeply for more than 5 minutes, Jeremy finally decided...
He chose...
