Zachary

I looked at the girl before me.

Sand colored hair, blue eyes, a slender figure and a flat chest.

Her body seemed rigid to me though. Perhaps nervousness?

"Zachary." I said before turning towards the stone again.

There was a list on the stone. One specialty after another was listed. I recognized more than a handful of them. Above the list was my name, although smaller now. To the left was the word Perks and to the right was Specialties and beneath it was P: 1 S: 1.

Beside each specialty was a number.

'Interesting. If this works the way I think it does then...' My thoughts trailed off as I glanced through the list.

I pressed down on one the of the specialties.

[Would you like to purchase Familiar Summon?]

Of course.

I pressed the yes option that appeared.

A grey book appeared in my hands with a flash of white light. I opened it, and with a thought the book turned into a mist that entered my body.

I looked at my status window just to be sure.

'Sure enough, it's there. So, this is supposed to be some sort of shop I guess. I wonder if the next is the same.' I thought as I tapped on Perks at the top of the stone.

The list of specialties suddenly became a list of perks.

I glanced through the list before sliding my hand up the stone. The list also slid up.

'So that's how this works. If this really is the world dungeon, then these... shops... should have every perk and specialty, and the next room should have enhancements. The lab is probably for experimenting, enchanting, alchemy, and inscribing scrolls. The training room should be for practicing magic and martial arts among other things, and the library should have something to do with skills. So that leaves the two empty rooms, and the first which I think is for eating and possibly gathering for discussing whatever, whenever.' I thought as I kept looking through the perks.

My eyes landed on appraisal, making me pause.

'Even appraisal can be learned? I thought you had to be born with it.' I thought as I looked at it.

I tapped on appraisal and learned the skill after getting the book.

I turned to leave, and found the girl still standing there.

I ignored her and went to the next room.
