Chapter 65 - Beneficial Past
With 159 gold coins, Shane's choice was somewhat restricted but it was still more than enough for him to purchase everything needed.
The most important investment of 110 gold coins went into a bow called
Horiou-wood bow Tier-1 (Rare)
With its grade at Tier-1 and its rare quality, it could generate a force to penetrate the hides of all kinds of Elite beasts and even awakened beasts with a weaker defense, as long as the projectiles it shot were sturdy and sharp enough.
Shane was sure that his current physique couldn't help him utilize the bow to its fullest potential. But even so, it would definitely be more than enough to kill wild stage beasts without much difficulty, which satisfied him.
Fortunately, he had found the bow within a human shop and only had to pay a transfer fee of 10%.
WIthout arrows, the Horiou-wood bow would be entirely useless hence Shane searched through a few arrow shops in order to find the best quality ones for a decent price.
In the end, Shane found a decent shop and purchased a little over 50 uncommon tier-1 arrows for 20 gold coins in addition to 14 rare tier-1 arrows for 14 gold coins and a single.
Due to the transfer fee, Shane's entire wealth was used up which frustrated him. He had been looking forward to purchasing an extraordinary quality arrow with special runes inscribed on them. However, their price was just too high for the purpose they would serve.
As such, the only thing he could do was accept the current situation. He glanced at his spatial ring to find that all his purchases had been stored neatly inside it.
Overall, Shane was satisfied with his purchase, even though it hurt him a bit. There had been many things that he had wanted to spend his hard-earned funds on but he wasn't left with enough coins to do that.
With his remaining four uncommon mortal mana stones, he was confident in refining his physique to a certain degree, which would increase his combat prowess.
Shane doubted that a perfect refined physique would be as strong as a normal flawed refined physique. He was keen to figure out what a real perfect mortal physique would be capable of.
Looking at the bow within his spatial ring, Shane smiled lightly, as he remembered his aunt who had taught him archery for some time.
Somehow, everything that he had learned from his family was useful for him right now. He had trained to fight using almost all kinds of weapons from a young age in order to be prepared for every scenario.
Being reminded of his aunts and uncles, Shane felt slightly bad to have not messaged them for long. He was sure, however, that once he did that he would want to meet them which would lead him to leave the Primordial Dimension. As much as he was missing them, he didn't want to leave, not immediately, at least.
The only reason for him to leave the Primordial Dimension would be to attend one of the academies as long as his application would be accepted.
But even then, the academies provided their students much freedom with optional courses without the obligation to attend a specific lecture or study a particular subject.
The detailed information pertaining to each and every course was available in the academy's servers. It could be downloaded by the students through the system as long as one received the permission.
There were certain guidelines to be followed within an academy and they were pretty simple.
First, be present during the exam period and reach a certain threshold.
Second, don't be too late for a class and grade challenge, otherwise, you're disqualified from learning through the dimensional-spheres until the next challenge starts.
Third, accumulate a certain amount of merit points by fulfilling school missions within the primordial dimensions.
As long as Shane fulfilled all requirements, he was free to do whatever he wanted to, which was much better than on earth.
On earth, Shane advanced through classes and entered university early as everything seemed pale and boring to his intelligent mind. Sadly, even going to university had failed to retain his interest and he had gone through the motions until he had finally come across something which made him curious.
Animals!
Unfortunately, that was not the only cause of his death back on earth. Even after transmigrating to Igra, Shane's love and curiosity for animals had tortured him as he had vehemently disregarded his dad's order to kill living beings.
Even though Shane's mind had already surpassed the age of 20 years during that time, his outer appearance was that of an 8-year-old kid.
He had hated his father for a long time for making him become a cold-hearted person like himself. The divide between them had only widened that told something different.
It was probably during that time that Shane began to question his father's orders and attempts to force him into something he wasn't sure of.
Unable to retaliate, Shane could only obey while he was still young. He did what his father wanted him to do until one fine day he escaped his father's clutches. After entering the Primordial Dimension, Shane was finally free from his father's terror reign.
Only now, after multiple weeks of arduous struggle did Shane understand that the things his father had forced him to do weren't necessarily bad.
His memory was still as good as it was on Earth and Shane's mind was brimming with information about almost everything that one could read without awakening the system.
In addition to that, his strategic, political, economical thinking was distinct while his proficiency in all kinds of weapons was good.
Thinking about his childhood and what he had experienced on Igra, Shane felt somewhat guilty towards his dad.
Shane was thankful for the guidance and education he had received, but in the end, the fact still remained that his father could force him into a marriage.
Furthermore, he wouldn't accept his dad manipulating him as well as treating him like one of his marionettes.
Shane could live by himself and work hard to achieve everything HE wanted instead of things his father had planned for him.
Both of them had different ideologies and beliefs that widened the gap between them further. Disliking his father also stemmed from one of the many things that his dad did to him.
Deep within, Shane knew that his father loved him, but in his opinion love didn't justify violence, or give his father authority to force anything he wanted on him, and treat him like a puppet.
In the beginning, Shane had believed that his father wouldn't be able to shoulder the burden of an entire race all by himself given the grief of losing his mother. However, even with time, the situation didn't change for the better or worse, which told him one thing for certain.
His father was just a complicated type of human.
Not everybody could form a connection with him but it seemed as if birds of a feather flock together, as Shane's entire family was filled with humanity's heroes.
