Chapter 175: Hunting with Alissa and Kip
[Your Aura skill has reached level 8!]
Noah spent around five minutes allowing his aura skill to catch up with his mana control level. The energy flowed more smoothly around his body now, creating a protective layer that felt as natural as breathing.
With his daily magical practice nearly complete, Noah considered working on his swordsmanship but decided against it. Checking his inventory revealed that production had accumulated quite nicely during his extended training session.
He had been practising for about four hours, and during that time his premium enhancement items had returned to their official maximum of twelve units each. Meanwhile, his bread had accumulated 32 loaves and his iced tea had reached 16 bottles.
48 items from normal stock plus potentially some premium sales. Good opportunity to open the shop.
With sufficient inventory to serve customers, Noah decided to open his store to the public once again.
The poor people he had helped previously had been healed by his magical bread, but others in similar desperate circumstances had arrived to replace them. Noah decided to continue his charitable efforts, though he wouldn’t jeopardise his shop’s progress or his own advancement.
Noah decided to help people without compromising his business sustainability.
He established a daily policy of giving away five loaves of bread to those who needed healing most desperately. His judgment criteria came from asking the community within the alleyway marketplace.
After being under siege from demon attacks for so long, the poor people had developed remarkable solidarity. Even those who desperately needed healing would often insist that others receive help first if their conditions were more severe.
