Moira Lynch was still unaware she was being targeted. She’d been toiling away at the fishery all day and had finally raised her level to ten.

In that time, she’d lost count of how many fish she’d caught and killed. By the end, she felt completely numb, like an unfeeling fish-killing machine.

She was still in a daze as she walked out of the fishery. Checking the time, Moira Lynch returned to the blacksmith shop from before.

This time, she wasn’t kicked out.

"You can use my tools, but it’ll cost you ten Game Coins an hour."

Ten Game Coins. Any other player would have surely yelled, "Why don’t you just rob me?" and tried to haggle.

But Moira Lynch was a complete newbie who didn’t understand anything. Besides, she had no other choice right now. If she really angered the blacksmith and he refused to lend her the tools, the loss would far outweigh the gain.

Moira Lynch checked her savings. Between the drops from wild monsters on the road and the Game Coins she’d earned at the fishery, she had exactly ten—no more, no less.

After paying the fee, not wanting to waste a single second, Moira Lynch immediately got to work.

She had only done some simple polishing and sanding on the items she’d made before. This time, she planned to refine their appearance.

Rushing against the clock, Moira Lynch finished processing the entire log of Cloud Sandalwood in the final minute of the hour.

Limited by the thickness of the wood, Moira Lynch could only craft it into rings. The parts she hollowed out from the center were polished into beads. Her main principle was to not let anything go to waste.

Seeing Moira Lynch finish her work, the blacksmith suddenly sidled up to her and said conspiratorially, "Young lady, I see the quality of that Cloud Sandalwood is quite good. I have some top-grade Enchantment Liquid here. How about this: you give me half of what you’ve made, and I’ll enchant the rest for you, free of charge?"

"Enchantment Liquid?"

Seeing the confused look on Moira’s face, the blacksmith said, "Don’t tell me you don’t know what Enchantment Liquid is."

"Enchantment Liquid is a type of Magic Potion created by Alchemists, used specifically for enchanting items. Every single bottle is priceless."

Finishing his speech, the blacksmith looked at Moira Lynch with an expression that screamed, ’You’re getting the deal of a lifetime.’

To this, Moira Lynch could only think, ’Heh.’

It was common knowledge that no matter how big the discount, the seller never takes a loss.

"Thank you for the kind offer, but I’ll pass. I don’t plan on enchanting these items for now," Moira Lynch refused politely.

Seeing Moira’s refusal, the blacksmith was stunned for a moment before a flicker of disappointment crossed his eyes. "Well, alright then. If you ever want to get something enchanted, be sure to come find me."

"I will, I will," Moira Lynch nodded. After packing everything up, she turned and walked out without a second glance.

Outside, Tangerina, who had finally gotten a lead on Moira Lynch’s whereabouts from others, had just arrived. However, she failed to notice Moira herself as they brushed past each other.

This was mainly because Moira Lynch’s appearance had changed.

The biggest difference between players with insider accounts and regular players was that they didn’t need to grind monsters to acquire skills.

For them, as long as they reached the required level, they would automatically unlock the corresponding skills, and their appearance would change along with it.

And so, just like that, they passed each other by.

Moira Lynch found a secluded corner and began to enchant the items she was holding.

Before she began the enchantment, she had Patience conduct some market research.

The research indicated that within *Divine Soul*, items from the Healing System were the most popular.

The single log of Cloud Sandalwood had yielded nearly a hundred rings and a hundred beads.

Just as Moira Lynch was about to start enchanting, she suddenly remembered something: enchanting items had level requirements for the enchanter. The higher the level, the better the resulting enchantment.

Looking at her current level, Moira Lynch decisively decided to switch to her main account.

The problem was, switching to her main account would require her to return to The Northlands.

She checked the price of a Transmission Prop. Ten Game Coins. ’That doesn’t seem too expensive,’ she thought. After a moment’s consideration, she opened her friends list and started asking for a loan.

Soon enough, both Shane Rhodes and Kai York had sent her ten Game Coins each.

After thanking them, Moira Lynch used the freshly acquired Game Coins to buy a Transmission Prop and teleported herself to the border of The Northlands.

Feeling the blast of frigid air on her face, Moira Lynch instead felt like a fish in water.

After reaching the coldest, central part of The Northlands as quickly as possible, she took out all the rings and beads and enchanted them one by one.

Once the enchanting was complete, Moira Lynch began to inspect the Attributes of the rings and beads.

[Healing Ring: Automatically heals the wearer when they are injured. Recovery speed is based on the severity of the wounds.

Recovery Technique: A one-time use ability that completely heals all of the user’s injuries. The item is destroyed upon use.

This is a Special Item. Thirty Real Exchange Coupons are required to bring it into reality.

PS: Once an item is brought into reality, it will be permanently removed from the game. Please choose carefully.]

[Healing Pearl: Instantly releases a wide-area Healing Light, healing all targets. A one-time use item.

This is a Special Item. Three Real Exchange Coupons are required to bring it into reality.

PS: Once an item is brought into reality, it will be permanently removed from the game. Please choose carefully.]

Perhaps due to the materials used, the abilities of both the Healing Rings and the Healing Pearls were far inferior to the three items she had made before.

However, when she saw those last few lines, Moira Lynch knew she had succeeded.

’It seems those first three items she’d crafted weren’t a fluke after all.’

Having learned about the game *Divine Soul*, Moira Lynch knew exactly what Special Items represented.

And now, as long as she was around, she could create a continuous stream of Special Items that could be brought into reality.

If anyone else found out, there was no telling how many people would go absolutely insane over it.

However, Moira Lynch’s main priority right now was to raise money. Without a moment’s hesitation, she listed all the Healing Rings and Healing Pearls on the auction house.

The Healing Rings were priced at 20,000, and the Healing Pearls at 10,000.

’I’ll see if they sell at this price,’ she thought. ’If not, I can always lower it.’

After taking care of everything, she saw that it was almost nighttime, so Moira Lynch simply logged out of the game.

’I have to cook up a grand fish feast today. It would be an insult not to, after killing so many fish.’

Logging out, she stepped out of her game pod. The two pods beside her were still running; Shane Rhodes and Kai York were still inside. Hugh Finch was also still asleep in the room.

Seeing this, Moira Lynch decisively pulled several fish out of her storage space, ready to cook her all-fish feast.
