[...]

Broken quickly scanned the items listed in the Reputation Shop, and he felt quite drawn to everything in the Advanced category, even though it had fewer options than the others. What really caught his attention was the blueprint. Its price was steep-300 points. Whether that was high or not, he couldn't say for sure, since he only had 150 points at the moment. "Most of these items don't give much detail about what they actually are," he muttered. "Like this Epic Artifact Fragment-what artifact? Or this skill scroll. It doesn't even specify the skill; it's basically a gacha. You could get something great or something totally disappointing."

"Why don't you try buying one item and see what you get?"

"Good idea."

Broken considered his options, deciding to pick something within his current budget. He settled on a cheaper item among the available choices.

He selected it and confirmed the purchase.

[You have spent 75 Reputation Points to purchase a Talent Scroll (Common)]

[You have obtained 1 Talent Scroll (Common).]

A scroll materialized in his hand.

He chose the Talent Scroll with a Common grade, the item that seemed the most intriguing, even if its rank didn't seem too promising. At the very least, talents were straightforward- something that could directly upgrade any NPC who received a new talent. Imagine, if they gained sword mastery, they could easily move into the guards or knights division.

"Good choice," Freya commented, giggling softly.

Broken tore the scroll.

[Activating the Talent Scroll (Common)]

[The scroll will convert into a specific talent.]

[Randomizing the result...]

[Randomizing complete.]

[You have obtained 1 Sudden Sneezer Talent Scroll.]

[The Sudden Sneezer Talent grants the user an inclination to sneeze unexpectedly, surprising everyone around them.]

Broken sighed after reading the talent he had received. "Sudden Sneezer Talent... truly, a highly useful talent."

Freya giggled at Broken's complaint. "It's just like the talent Mortar has, that builder, remember?"

"Yeah, Irresistible Yawner, makes him yawn all day long, and it's contagious to everyone around him."

"Well, it's only a common grade. Maybe we just got unlucky."

"Yeah... really bad." With that, Broken saved the scroll to his Inventory. "But I'm still curious to try again."

[You have spent 75 Reputation Points to purchase a Talent Scroll (Common)]

[You have obtained 1 Talent Scroll (Common)]

Broken immediately bought the same item again and grinned at Freya.

"Are you seriously spending all your points?"

"Well, we can figure out how to earn more points later, but I'm curious about what kind of talent this scroll will give me. I mean, if I get something useless twice..."

"I think it's because the grade is common, so you shouldn't expect much. See?"

"Yeah, but it says 'common,' not 'useless.' So I'm hoping for something simple, like a cleaning talent, builder talent, or anything useful for work."

"Good, let's see."

Broken nodded and tore the scroll.

[Randomizing the talent...]

[You have obtained 1 Fortune Teller Talent Scroll.]

[The Fortune Teller talent grants the user the ability to foresee future events through divination, offering valuable predictions to aid decision-making.]

"Woah... Fortune Teller? I guess I got lucky this time. At least this one seems useful."

Freya nodded approvingly.

He continued, "Fortune Teller grants the ability to foresee the future? But how? How can the game predict the future? Maybe some events are already programmed into the system, but if this talent is tested on a player, how would it foresee their future? How does the game even manage that?"

"It's possible the fortune telling refers to events that the super AI controlling the game has already predicted," Freya responded. "Or it could just be another fun, mostly useless talent. So, don't take whatever someone with this talent says too seriously."

"Well, at least this one sounds a bit more useful than the first one," he said.

"I think it's quite interesting," Freya remarked. "Why don't you give it to one of the NPCs you

trust?"

"Yeah... good idea. But who?" Broken pondered.

He paused for a moment, considering her suggestion. Then, with sudden enthusiasm, he said,

"I think I know who would make good use of this talent. Follow me."

With that, he turned and began walking away.

Broken and Freya entered the House of Slumdon, and as they stepped inside, Yara quickly approached them, her warm smile accompanied by a deep bow.

She was dressed in a maid's uniform: a white blouse paired with a black skirt that fell just

below her knees.

"My Lord, is there anything I can help you with?"

"Hi, Yara, yes, I have something interesting to show you," Broken replied.

Yara tilted her head, curiosity written on her face. "Yes, My Lord?"

"Follow me," Broken instructed as he started toward the living room sofa.

Freya followed closely, with Yara trailing behind. Once they were seated, Freya leaned in,

whispering,

"Broken... are you sure you want to give her that talent? She's already swamped with all the work she does around here."

Broken nodded. "If you ask me which NPC I trust the most in this town, of course, it's Yara.

And I'm not asking her to become a full-time fortune teller. I just want to give her the talent and see how she'll use it. It's not about adding more to her workload. I'd only ask for her help if it's really needed. Plus, who knows if this talent will even work well?"

Yara's expression shifted slightly, showing curiosity and a bit of confusion. "What can I do for

you, My Lord?

Broken took out the talent scroll and held it up for Yara to see.

"Yara, this is a Fortune Teller talent scroll. If you tear it, you'll receive the Fortune Teller

talent. But I don't know exactly how it will affect you-I mean, how the talent works. So,n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

you'd be the first to try this kind of talent scroll. You don't have to accept it if you don't want

to."

"Huh... Fortune Teller, like playing with Tarot?" Yara asked, tilting her head.

"Tarot?" Broken turned to Freya. "Is the Tarot she's talking about the same as what we

know?"

Freya nodded. "Yes, it's the same Tarot here. There are even players with a class that lets them use Tarot cards in battle. It's pretty unique since they can almost use all the cards from a

Tarot deck."

Broken nodded and then looked back at Yara. "I'm not sure about the details, but you can give

it a try."

Yara smiled brightly. "My Lord, if you really wish to give me this talent, I'd be honored to

accept it."

"Alright, take it." Broken handed her the talent scroll without hesitation.

Yara paused for a brief moment, then tore the scroll in half.

[Congratulations! You have successfully bestowed a new talent to an NPC for the first time, and as a reward for this accomplishment, you have earned 50 Reputation Points.]
