MMORPG: Rise of the Primordial Godsmith

Chapter 1190  Hierarchy of Purchases

"Don\'t worry too much! I\'ll tell them as soon as possible! Thanks again, Valyr!"

Whoosh!

Watching the final group of players leave his shop, Valyr continued to smile as their silhouettes slowly disappeared from his field of vision.

"…Haah." Though, by the time they truly disappeared from the sight, the young man let out a long sigh, only now realizing how much he\'d pushed himself throughout the night.

"Well, it\'s not all that bad," muttered Valyr to himself with a slight chuckle, returning to the shop as he decided to tidy up before closing. "I was able to add a lot more players to my friend list than I thought."

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Making use of the translucent arms he always used while forging, the young man swiftly got to work, noting down the items that were more popular with the players in preparation for his next opening.

"Gotta hurry up a bit so I can get a bit more rest." Then again, as he did not want to miss out on an opportunity to further cement himself as the go-to NPC for players when it came to items, Valyr decided that he\'d open the shop again later in the afternoon.

With multiple thoughts related to the shop lingering in his mind, the young man slowly fell into a trance, allowing him to tidy up the shop far faster than he thought he would.

At the same time, he went over all of the items that were sold more than usual in his mind, reminding himself to forge and concoct at least a few of them before he opened the shop sometime later.

"In any case, this might turn out to be more lucrative than I thought." Satisfied with the overall condition of the shop, Valyr began to make his way out of the shop with a faint smile, briefly thinking back to the sales he made throughout the night.

Although the amount of money he earned was nowhere near the amount he used to earn back when he was still in Clossbay City, it was still more than enough for him to spend wantonly in the village if he wanted to do so.

\'All in all, I earned about 15 gold coins from these players,\' thought Valyr to himself, slightly grinning as he locked the door to the shop. \'Pretty good, considering most of them only bought a couple things from the shop.\'

\'With the number of players still increasing, as well as their average level, it won\'t be long before I match the amount I used to make back at Clossbay.\'

\'Especially if I take the other services I offer into consideration.\'

After constantly interacting with the players for the entire night, Valyr was able to classify them down into five groups of spending.

The first group to him would be those that acted similarly to Belial and Tianshen during the first day the shop was open. In other words, these people were window shoppers, merely looking around the shop to figure out what they\'d buy in the future.

On the other hand, the second and third group would be those that bought items from his shop. However, with the amount of money they\'ve earned from the past few days, they were only able to buy either a couple pieces of equipment, or a few vials of potions. Nôv(el)B\\\\jnn

\'Doesn\'t help that there\'s a hierarchy forming around the players based on one\'s strength,\' inwardly muttered Valyr to himself, shrugging as he thought of it as a matter of course.

Though most of the people that entered his shop were part of the second and third group, there were also players who he classified as those in the fourth and fifth group.

Those in the fourth group all had the funds to buy an entire set of equipment from him. If they didn\'t buy an entire set of equipment, then they would buy a mix of equipment and potions instead.

From what Valyr could tell, almost all of these players were part of organizations, with most of them being part of mid-sized organizations he knew from the other VRMMORPGs in the past.

Then again, there were also solo players who were able to enter this fourth group, prompting Valyr to show no hesitation in sending them the friend request he\'d more or less become associated with.

As for the fifth and final group of players to enter his shop, only a single group was fitting for that classification in Valyr\'s mind.

"The Five Leviathans…"

Similar to the fourth group, the Five Leviathans all bought sets of equipment from him, reminding everyone that they did not obtain their current titles for nothing.

However, aside from each of them buying a full set of equipment, they also bought a couple sets of vials, as well as made use of Valyr\'s extra services of equipment enhancement.

"It won\'t be long until they make up a majority of the profits I earn from this shop," said the young man to himself with a slight chuckle.

"Then again, with how the materials I use in the items are all free... I\'m only making pure profit from this."

Formulating a rough idea of what he\'d do after getting some rest, Valyr decided to make his way to the village\'s inn, hoping to rent a room there to get some rest for the night.

Though, just as he was about to start heading in the direction of the village\'s only inn, a middle-aged man appeared in front of him all of a sudden.

"Er… can I talk with you for a bit, Ylvar?"

"Hmm?" Raising his eyebrow in response to the question, Valyr remained silent as he looked at the man from head to toe.

If he were to come up with a person that resembled the man in front of him the closest, the young man felt that Julian was the closest to the man in terms of structure and appearance.

However, unlike Julian, the man\'s hair was a strong dark brown rather than the red-orange Julian had. He also sported a long and scruffy beard that made him faintly give off a fatherly vibe.

As for the man\'s eyes, Valyr thought that they resembled amethysts in a way, glistening with wisdom under the rays of the sun.

Taking into consideration the man\'s callused hands, as well as the weathered leather apron the man wore, it did not take long for Valyr to realize who he was talking to, causing a wry smile to appear on his face as he nodded.

"Is this about the situation with the smithy?" he asked in response, knowing that his shop redirected most, if not all of the attention away from the man\'s smithy.

Seeing the man nod in reply, Valyr felt his insides sink a bit, wondering if the man was mad at him.

"Well, there is a bit of that… but I have something else to talk about."

Though, as the man continued to talk, he slowly began to realize that…

The man was probably not as mad as he initially thought.

"Can I… can I learn blacksmithing from you?"
