Terrarian Chapter 63 Commissioned by GoodGodISuck
🕑 Added 2023-02-22 00:20:58 +0000 UTCIf anything, having half a dozen people teleport with me made the spatial disturbance worse to the point that even I felt a bit nauseous with the Magic Mirror protecting me, but Ottar and others gamely swallowed down their bile only shaking and teetering for a couple of moments as their iron wills took back control of their bodies that reeled from being taken through space and time.
But as my mind cleared up, I saw Eina was laying up on one of the couches that was against the wall, so I went to check on her without touching her as I had no idea what else was wrong with her.
"Welcome back Jake." Filvis spoke tiredly as she crossed the corner of the room and at my unspoken demand for more information she sighed as she took in Eina's form. "I managed to reattach her ears as they had been... Cut off with a very sharp implement. But even if you saved her eyes, I wouldn't have been able to fix them, nor can the Dia Saint regrow them with her spell. Other than that she had some busted ribs and other bones that had been broken but I was able to set them so they can heal properly with the potions we have on hand." Filvus finished explaining and I saw with how she tottered on her feet that she must have been close to Mind Down so I tersely nodded.
"Thank you Filvus... She is a dear friend to Bell." I said feeling my own adrenaline leaving my own body and I could feel all the bruises and my own injuries that managed to get past my Armor Rating with how there was three bosses trying to kill us.
"Enough with the sappy shit. We came to do business so lead us to where we need to go." Hedin impatiently brusquely cut into our conversation, and I saw Hedin throw a dirty look at me for not leading them on
I only blinked at them before I just looked back to Filvis. "So other than her eyes she will be fine?" I asked and Filvis nodded with a wry look on her face as I heard Hedin's teeth all but grinding in the background.
"Alright." I said taking a breath as I turned back to the Freya members. "I thank you for your patience and your help previously." I said thankfully with Ottar nodding, accepting the thanks as the other level sixes just shifted in place obviously not really caring too much for my thanks either way.
"Alright let me show you what I got up for sale and if you got any questions, you all are welcome to ask." I finished as I left them all out of the room so Eina could get some rest and I realized as I left the room that I would need to bunk with either Bell or Beatrice tonight. As it's not like I could just kick Eina into another room.
Bringing down the Freya members from my room only got a couple blinks of surprise from Hestia and Seshat but they didn't question their presence in the store. "It here says on the list that these Hermes Boots increase running speed by fifty percent and there's better forms of these boots. What's the best boots that boost running speed." Hogni enthusiastically demanded as he slapped the boots onto the counter I was sitting on.
I had to actually think about that question before I shrugged as with how I was still only in 'pre-hardmode'. The best boots I could make was Terraspark Boots.
"The best boots I can make as of now is Terraspark boots... Literally a half dozen times better than those boots and comes with a great number of extra abilities like, walking on lava, resistance to high and low temperatures, prevents you from slipping on ice and allowing you to walk on water." As I listed the boots abilities Hogni's eyes widened showing a lot more emotion past scarf that covered his lower face as he boggled at what I was saying, and as I added one more bit almost nonchalantly, he flinched. "Oh, and you can fly through the air a bit like Asfi Andromeda's flying shoes allow her to."
Ottar grunted as he brought his own paper over and placed it down on the table. "I want to commission a set of armor and the Freya Familia will commission ten sets of those Terraspark Boots so long as they have the same indestructibility your other items have." Ottar announced making my eyes twitch at his order.
"Ten Terraspark boots is equal to one billion Valis Ottar." I said straight up, and my frank answer made Ottar stagger in place as the price was ruinously exorbitant to say the least.
"Oi what the hell! You sell your other shit at prices that don't even reach a single million what gives!" Hedin all but howled as not even the Freya Familia had a billion Valis in liquid funds at all.
I gave them all an irritated look before I very clearly explained. "Alright so you guys saw or at least heard how I crafted these badges with magical effects using other items that don't make sense for the item in question as well as using other magical items altogether?" I explained and all of them nodded in agreement as they saw me crafting over the past three days at least at some point as the Wargame was played within their Familia mansion. "Well, the Terraspark boots literally takes more than a couple dozen magical items I have to make on my own and combine to make the final form of the boots. Hell, I only have a lesser form of boots as I haven't been able to get into the dungeon and get the materials needed to make the lava themed stuff to make the boots to begin with!" I said with honest irritation.
No way in hell I could get literally down to the damned fifty eighth floor in the Dragon Vase floor around all those damned Valgang Dragons and mine up the ores as I knew damned well that's where Hellstone was.
"So, you cannot even craft them due to lacking the materials?" Hedin interjected and I nodded as the blond elf looked to Ottar before back down to me. "Where in the dungeon would you need these materials and, would we need to retrieve them, or could we simply escort you there?" He continued and I blew out some air as I shrugged.
"Well Hellstone only forms in almost volcanic levels of heat so maybe I could get it from the volcano that is a week or some away from Orario in the heart of the Beol Mountains but if I go to the dungeon, I could also get the rest of the materials for the boots." Then I pointed to another sign that was to the side. "And remember I charge based on earning favors and getting help to get materials for myself. This whole business is just helping you guys to help me get better stuff myself except for the potions bit. Thats for money and keeping my goddess out of trouble." I bluntly said with Seshat snorting but turning introspective as she realized like ninety percent of our sales were our cheap decent quality potions.
Hogni groaned as he seemed to pick up more on the Hellstone bit making everyone look to him in confusion except for me who shrugged. "The only volcanic floor in the dungeon is the base of the Dragon Vase. We would need to get down to fifty eighth floor." Hogni said wryly as such an expedition would take literally weeks normally.
But I raised a hand. "Or!" I said loudly as I dangled a gold key in front of the Freya adventurers. "Or you guys can help me make the next tunnel to the next safe zone in the dungeon the twenty eighth floor to bypass the Water City floors." I said dangling the key in front of Ottar who understood what I was offering to Freya.
I was offering to give the Familia the right to travel through the dungeon using my highways with no monsters and with the carts I sold they could get down to Rivira in less than half an hour in comparison to the hours they would have to fight through the easy floors getting to the first safe zone.
"We will need to confer with Lady Freya... Loki Familia is already in the dungeon on their expedition and leaving Orario without a high-level Familia when Evilus is coming back from the dead could lead to issues." Ottar bluntly replied earning a nod from me in understanding.
"I see. Then I guess good luck in that. Either way if she denies this opportunity, I will be leaving Orario to go acquire resources for a while and frankly avoid Evilus's nonsense while I am gone." I said honestly making Ottar frown.
"Why are you leaving? Orario is the center of the world... What can you not get here?" He demanded and I shrugged.
"As I said, if I cannot get help getting to the lower floors, I will explore the surface of Gekai to get the materials I need to allow me to get down to said floors. Loki's Familia is already busy down in the dungeon and you guys are busy watching Orario so I got to do what I need in order to get stronger." I finished and hearing how I was going to strike out on my own to get stronger I saw the Freya adventurer's looking at me with a bit more respect.
"Anya... Allen's sister can lead you to the mid-thirties floors." Hedin grunted as Ottar threw a glare at him, but Hedin just snorted. "Come off it Ottar. She needs to step out of her brothers shadow and has played waitress long enough. I will get her here in two hours be ready for her." Hedin said finally to me as he left the shop with me sending an unspoken order to Bell for her to let him out of the tower.

Hey sorry bro you missed one Allen at end there with the whole snorting thing in the last paragraph but other than that great chapter and I wonder if we might see Jake go biblical ya know an eye for an eye
GentlemanMad
Hey at least the speed boots fit in perfectly as a plot point as they lost the fastest man in Orario.
Azazyel
I rewrote the chapter and the previously one wiping Allen's bits out as he is literally dead. My bad.
GentlemanMad
I was also about to bring that up. Dead guy walking around. Jake doesn’t know what they did and their healer is very OP next to Amid. She constantly healing Freya members back from the edge of death. Could use that wiggle room
