Vol. 3 - Education - Chapter 9
It cost Thomas a whopping 150 gold for the materials he had used to make his items during the day. The majority of that was due to his use of the Firestone to make his grenades. As he hadn't had to pay for the first grenade he'd been unaware of just how expensive that particular material was. However, considering the danger involved in mining and shipping it, it made a certain amount of sense.
After giving Hekrin the money, Thomas informed him that he likely wouldn't be back for the next few days as he intended to head into the dungeon within the city and gather experience. He did promise to stop by at least once more to say goodbye to Hekrin before leaving the city.
Upon exiting Hekrin's shop, Thomas made his way to the general goods store and bought some basic crossbow bolts. He procured a hundred bolts for 50 gold. He wasn't sure how strong the monsters in the dungeon would be but considering this was a starter city he didn't expect them to be that strong. Even if he did run into something like a strong boss he had his two grenades to throw at it. So with all of his needs filled, Thomas made his way to The Swans Nest to enjoy his dinner and a nights rest, with a little grinding before passing out.
The following morning, Thomas enjoyed his breakfast and let Martha know that he might not be back that night. He wasn't sure what the dungeon was like and Martha had been good to him so he didn't want her to worry. After leaving The Swans Nest he made his way to the adventurers guild. He intended to pick up a few quests to enhance his experience gain within the dungeon.
When he entered the guild building he made his way over to the quest board and joined a large group of people perusing the quests. Thomas spotted a few that he could complete while inside of the dungeon. The most interesting ones were the repeatable quests. After selecting his quests he was forced to stand in line for a while to accept them from one of the lovely receptionists working behind the counter. While accepting the quests the receptionist game him some information about the dungeon that would be helpful.
