"Claras... What are you gonna do after this?" Alan asked Clara. They just buried Vincent's body.

Clara who was still looking at her grandfather's headstone fell silent, not answering Alan's question.

"Well.... Clara..." Alan called out to Clara subtly while holding onto her shoulder.

"US Brother. My grandfather was my only family. Now I have no one. I don't know what to do." Said Clara raspingly. Clara's voice was almost exhausted as she continued to cry over her grandfather's death.

Alan understood Clara's concerns. He was in his position once. Alan, who was quite mature, almost lost his mind when he lost both parents. Clara is only 13 years old.

"What if you come with me? I will take care of you until you can determine your own path."

Clara simply nodded, her mind sign still blank. They both left the funeral.

Alan went straight to the tailor's place where he sewed the Black Venom Skin. The results of the stitches really satisfied Alan.

A black dress, with a red pattern on the collar and arms. That shirt can be very matching when Alan wears it. What surprised Alan even more was the innate attribute of the shirt.

[Venom Leather Clothes, Gold Class

Int + 20

Deff + 25

Passive skillet

It can detect heat within a radius of 100 meters of the user.]

After wearing the shirt Alan sewed into 4 Black Wolf skins. Alan plans to give it to Clara and sell the rest. Alan paid for sewing to the 4 garments, which cost 1 silver.

Finished dealing with the tailor Alan took Clara to the blacksmith. Alan's going out of Middlemist with Clara. Of course Clara had to have a gun to protect herself.

"Claras... Can you use a weapon?" Alan asked as he reached the front of the blacksmith's house.

"I've never used a gun at all brother US." Answer Clara.

"Well... Looks like it's gonna be hard." Alan muttered softly.

Alan and Clara break into the blacksmith's house. The blacksmith house is really like a gun shop. Inside his house there were enough weapons to arm 1 battalion of soldiers.

'Joker... Can you help me pick a weapon that matches Clara?'

[Good US...

Analyzing Clara attribute data.

Simulate a fight with a weapon.

result: Shield and one-handed sword.]

'The shield? Are you serious about the Joker?'

[True Lan. Clara has Str and Deff attributes that are much higher than Agi and Int. The shield and sword would be a perfect fit for him.]

"Ah... It's gonna be a little hard." Alan thought that Clara would fit a bow or arrow. Where Alan can teach him.

But... A shield?

Alan has never used it.

"Alright Clara. We'll pick a weapon for you. Choose what you like."

Clara walked between the shelves containing the weapons. He continued walking as if he had no interest in the weapon.

Alan seemed to lose his patience seeing Clara just walking between the shelves of weapons. Alan seems to want to choose a weapon for Clara.

[US. Weapons for NPCs were different from players. NPCs are tied to one weapon for their entire lives.]

Alan was silent after hearing the Joker's warning. He doesn't want to interfere with Clara's gun selection process. However the Joker is the most reliable source of information, there is not the slightest mistake of the information the Joker provides.

Justright. Clara came to a halt in front of a set of shields and swords. Clara stood in front of the shield and sword. Clara's eyes radiated longing, as if finding a lover who had long separated.

"Iron Clever Master. It seems my friend has found his weapon of choice." Alan approached the Iron Man to ask the price of the shield and sword.

"really? Then I'm very lucky to be friends with him. May I know how much you will sell the shield and the sword?"

"Master Honorable Guest. I actually don't want to sell it. But since master had saved the middlemist village I had to give it up as well. To cost 120 silver a set."

"alright... It's 120 silver. Thank you so much for your help." Alan bit his own teeth. 120 silver? It took a few days for him to get it. And in just a few minutes it runs out.

'Joker... Where can we find a suitable coach for Clara?'

[the adventurer association provides basic training for the NPCs.]

'Basic training? It seems like it's enough.' Alan and Clara went straight to the adventurer association.

"Master Honorable Guest. Can I help you?" The NPC guard counter reception asked Alan.

"My friend needs training to use a shield and a sword. Can the adventurer association train him?"

"Sure Mr. Honorable Guest.. The training provided is simple training. For his development depends on your own friend."

"it doesn't matter." The most important thing for Alan now was, Clara knew the basic basics of how to use a shield and a sword. To develop it Clara can practice fighting with herself while hunting Hidden Quest.

"Alright Mr. Honorable Guest. The training fee is 2 choppers. "

Alan paid training fees. Clara received basic training in the use of shields and swords. Almost half a day on her own Clara trained. Alan also chose to make potions and smeared his arrows with poison while waiting for Clara.

After Clara is out of training, Alan can see a striking difference between Clara who is now with Clara before training.The event Clara holding her shield properly looks very graceful but unshakable. Clara is 3 years old.

"How are you feeling now?" Ask Alan to Clara.

"Better than ever US Brother. I can't believe practicing swords and shields can calm the mind."

"Haha..." Alan was not surprised by the results. This recipe from his father is indeed the best to calm the mind.

"alright... Let's try your practice." Alan smiled cunningly. He was itching to move his body.

aclara was only able to follow Alan to the hills behind Middlemist.

.

"Ok Clara's... We will travel together for a long time. We should be able to protect each other."

"Good Sister... I feel like I can protect anyone now."

"Haha.... Don't be so naive. To be able to protect each other we must understand each other's abilities. That's why we're going to practice sparring here."

" Training a match? But.... "

" Just calm down... I've prepared enough heal potions for both of us. More precisely for you." Alan said with a smile.

"Aaaahh.... Alright... Please guidance US Brother. "

"OKs... First show me what you got out of your practice using a shield."

Alan shot Clara with his Wind Arrow. Clara could only occasionally fend off Alan's attacks with her shield.

"Don't focus too much on the arrows. Try to start reading the direction of your opponent's attack!" Alan said as he continued to release his Wind arrow.

2 Hours more they practice it. Clara also spent more than 20 bottles of heal potion.

After resting for 1 hour they continued practicing the sword and shield. Now Clara must get used to being able to defend and counterattack.

Alan's movements were so fast that Clara could not do much. "Calm your mind! Do not think too much about the possible enemy move. Just follow the attack line." Alan gave directions while continuing to direct his dagger at Clara's shield.

Slowly but surely Clara is increasingly adept at fending off and giving counterattacks.which was from 5 alan attacks always hit clara. now 3 of 5 alan attacks can be stopped with his shield. Clara also seemed to enjoy the thrill of fighting with Alan. All the burdens of thought due to his grandfather's death stay were gone.

Didn't feel like 3 hours they practiced sparring. The sun was almost setting too.

Alan asks Clara to return to her home first. And he's gonna log out to get ready for college in the morning.

"We'll leave tomorrow morning.. You get ready."
