"the hell my levels one and im not a orc anymore what the fuck happend and why is it saying my real name" said John angrily

as he said this everything became extremely bright so bright he had to close his eyes, when he opened his eyes again he saw he was in a small town with people looking at him as if he was insane

"sir are you ok" asked an old man with worry

"o-oh um yea im fine" said John as he looked at the man

"thats good why dont you come have some tea" said the old man as he walked to a small stall

John followed the man and sat down while playing his memories through his head

"what is it this time Ken" asked the owner of the stall

"found this boy in the street" said old man Ken as he pointed at John

"great you brought me a kid with a broken mind" said the stall owner

"think you could fix his mind" asked old man Ken

"I can try" said the stall owner

old man Ken gently grabbed John by his arm and pulled him closer when John was next to the stall the owner rubbed her hands together and they began to glow green she then placed her hands on John's head and closed her eyes she saw his memories and say there was two different sets of memories she opened her eyes in shock but closed them quickly she began to remove the memories that belonged to the body John was in only keeping the important ones

"done" said the stall owner as she pulled away

"they where that bad huh" said old man Ken

"the worst I seen" said the stall owner as she put her hands on her hand and removed the memories of wiping the memories John

"where am I" asked John and he looked around

"your at a tea stall" said old man Ken

John continued to look around until he looked at the owner of the stall

[skinning skill unlocked]

he continued doing this until he had five skins he wrapped up the skins and grabbed the piglet and went back to town

"Mis Jane were old man Ken" asked John as he saw her closing up her stall

"he's at home its the house next to the stable" said Jane as she looked at John

"hey old man Ken I'm back" said John as he walked into the stables

"so you got the hides" said old man Ken

"and more" said John as he showed old man Ken the piglet

"when I'm done here I'll show you how to tan" said old man Ken

once old man Ken was done he went inside and got out his tanning rack and strung up one of the hides he then took a knife and began scrapping the hide to get the meat and fat off once he was done he put the fatness hide in a barrel of of water to soak it and he moved to scrapping the next hide and put it in the barrel as well

"now it's your turn" said old man Ken as he handed the knife to John

John sat down and followed the steps old man Ken did he cut the skin a few times but did good for a beginner he then put it in the barrel and did this process two more times

[leatherworking skill has leveled up]

"pretty good for your first time now we let them soak and agitate them every few days it should take no more than two weeks" said old man Ken with a smile

John was about to speak when old man Ken cut him off

"not to worry I have some that have finished soaking" said old man Ken as he opened another barrel

"now your gonna take the membrane and the hair off with the knife" said old man Ken as John began to scrap the knife against the hair and he did better than with the meat and fat not cutting the hide at all he thanked his skill leveling up

"I don't think you need me to teach you at all" said old man Ken with a smile

"really" said John in a questioning voice

"I've never seen a rookie as good as you" said old man Ken

John smiled as he felt he was going to get more than just the skill out of this

as he finished the last of the hides old man Ken let him work on

"good good the rest is tedious and slow so I'll take care of it" said old man Ken as he put the hides in the braining solution

"not gonna happen I came her to learn and that's what I'm gonna do" said John with a determined look

old man Ken smiled more and looked at John

"then learn you shall" said old man Ken

"don't just stand there help me" said old man Ken as he began stirring an older batch of hides
