Getting Skilled

Lucie has sent you off to find some old man, who supposedly will teach you some incredible combat skill. You have your doubts about how useful it can be, but you need to get these Quests out of the way before you can finish your adventurer registration.

Receiving the Quest
"Have you ever heard of Ryzen?" Lucie asks.

You rack your brain, but that name doesn't seem to ring any bells. "Nope. Am I supposed to know who that is?"

"Depends how well you know the locals," chuckles Lucie, a mischievous look in her eyes. "He's kind of famous around these parts."

"What for?" you reply, your curiosity getting the better of you. "And how many of these Quests do I have to do?"

The receptionist smiles. "I'll let you hear it from himself. And don't worry, you're roughly halfway through. We need to make sure you can handle yourself before we let you do any harder Quests, what with all of the complaints we've been getting."

Fair enough. You ask Lucie where you can find this Ryzen character, and she points you again in the direction of The Hunting Grounds. "I've marked the location of his shack on your map, he can usually be found there between 8 am to 10 pm. Have fun!"

Walkthrough

 * 1) Go to Ryzen's Shack, located in The Hunting Grounds.
 * 2) Get Ryzen to teach you a combat skill.
 * 3) Go back to The Guild Hall.

Quest Completion
You walk back into The Guild Hall, and look around for Lucie. You spot her currently helping out a tall, muscle bound Beastman, dressed in shining armor and armed to the teeth. Lucie doesn't seem too excited talking to him, and just answers him with a dismissive air. Eventually, he turns and leaves, pushing you aside on his way to the door.

"Outta the way, fresh meat," he says, smirking.

You decide to hold your tongue, and approach the reception desk.

"What's that guy's deal?"

"Oh, Indark? Unfortunately, he's one of the top adventurers in the region, and that status seems to have gotten to his head. He just completed one of the most dangerous Quests we had to offer, which sort of makes him a celebrity around here." She signs, annoyed. "Anyway, did you get that new skill from Ryzen?"

"Only after listening to his war stories for a century. Any of them true?" You reply.

"Doubtful." Lucie grins. "But he's so good at clearing the area of slimes that we like to humor him anyway. In any case, here's the reward. I'll see you soon, when you're ready to take on the next Quest!"


 * You gain 10 Gold.
