After assigning the tasks, Fang Zheng hurried out of the inn and headed to a small house not far from the Shopping District, pushing the door open.
"Boss? Are you here?"
"Mr. Fang Zheng?"
Hearing the voice, a pink-haired girl poked her head up from behind the counter and looked toward the door. When she saw Fang Zheng, she seemed somewhat surprised as well.
"I never thought you'd come by... What, are you planning to get another two-handed sword? Still haven't gotten a weapon?"
"...Can we not talk about that?"
At the pink-haired girl's teasing, Fang Zheng's face immediately darkened. He had bought his first two-handed sword from this player named Lizbeth. She was a crafting-type player, mainly responsible for smelting and making weapons. Her prices were fair compared to those crooked NPC merchants, and Fang Zheng had replaced his starter two-handed sword here back then. Ever since, whenever he needed a new weapon, he would come to Lizbeth...
Over time, Lizbeth had also learned of Fang Zheng's infamous "bad luck aura" that kept him from ever getting a two-handed sword.
"Ahahaha, sorry, sorry."
Seeing Fang Zheng's dark expression, Lizbeth smiled and waved her hand.
"So what did you come here for today? The two-handed sword I sold you last time was the best thing I've made in a while."
Like in every online game, the stats of weapons forged by crafting players in this game were affected by materials, forging tools, skill, and proficiency, but they were also random. Lizbeth was relatively lucky, and several times she had managed to create high-quality weapons.
For some reason, though, they were always Two-handed Swords...
That was also the main reason Fang Zheng had his eye on her.
"I came to see you today because of something very important."
Fang Zheng sighed
