Jacob looked at the estimate presented by Immortika and Mull, 'Three people from each subspecies present in this entire city, huh? No bad, I guess. At least I need to massacre their entire tribes, or that would be too cumbersome! I also needed a pawn who could help me buy knowledge of the Water Magic, materials, and a place to open up a lab so I could practice with my Rune Craft.
'Since the Alchemy Guild had closed its door on me, I just have to barge in uninvited. I need to be a full fledge Elder Grandmaster Rune Artificer before I enter that damn trial…'
Even though Jacob has the knowledge of an Elder Grandmaster Rune Artificer, he never really practiced with it since the Rare Plains didn't have tools or sufficient materials for it.
