Chapter 5 - sell water and end the first day

[Nathan Gaunt: I can't believe it, you've really been lucky so far.]

[David crescesnt: yeah... me, on the other hand I'm stuck in a plain, sure, I'm not too cold or too hot but I don't see anything else around me apart from these big animals, I think if I meet one I could destroy my game].

[Nathan Gaunt: I am on a rocky coast by the sea, from time to time I see several dolphin sized fish fighting each other, luckily I was able to catch one with a rope I found in a box and an improvised hook].

[Red Crescent: even if I was lucky with the river, I'm still freezing here, well, I'll see if I can get a blanket or cloth selling water in the global chat].

[David Crescent: go ahead, for my part I have a bottle of lemon soda so I don't have a thirst problem yet so you should get the best you can]

[Nathan Gaunt: yes and remember not to sell too much or they might know you have a constant supply of drinking water and they won't stop pestering you asking you to give away your water to everyone]

"you're right, I can't let them know I have too much water or I won't be able to get any good."

[vendor: Red Crescent

item: water x 100ML

price: cloth x 1M

stock: 3

note: water is already very hard to get, don't ask me to give mine away or promise things you don't have at the moment].

[Tang Ping: look at the boss upstairs, he's selling water, if only he had cloth!]

[Hao Ah: big brother I have cloth but you give too little water, don't be stingy]!

[Red Crescent: I can't lower the price, many people won't even sell their water, or ask for much higher prices than this so take it or leave it surely someone else will be able to take advantage of it]

[Hao Ah: ...I have a 2x1M red curtain]

[transaction completed: you have lost (water x200ML) and have acquired (red curtain)]

"Fuuh~ what a stubborn girl did she really think I would give her more water? well, never mind, I still got what she was looking for."

even with the warmth of the campfire the ground was still too cold, even if she could have a proper bed something like a hammock shouldn't be a problem.

I have the wooden stakes to use as a support and with the curtain I don't need any more'.

with some difficulty I was able to drive four stakes into the ground and made a cut in the center about 10 centimeters long before passing the corners through and tying a knot.

"ready... my new bed, hmm... there is still some daylight left, I should take the opportunity to fill the buckets with water, ah... I can ask david to cut the rabbit meat for today, meanwhile he can keep some of it, if I can do that later."

the fire in the campfire was already fading but I chose to let it die out while the embers still kept the place a little warm.

...

"huu~ I can't wait to make a coat out of that rabbit's fur."

once outside I walked quickly towards the river, on the way I picked up several weeds I could find as well as small branches and stones.

I'm here... the hole I made in the ice is starting to freeze again... well, that's to be expected, remove 'stone axe x1', 'empty bucket x1' and 'bucket of water x1'.

I put the buckets aside and with the stone axe I broke the ice.

"I don't see any crabs like before... well, it doesn't matter."

I took a bucket and dipped it in the ice water and quickly took it out once it was full and left it on the floor next to me.

'this water is too cold...'.

I quickly grabbed the other bucket and dipped it in until it was full before pulling it out again.

"keep everything in the inventory"

[received]

I walked home with my hands in my pockets trying to dry them and warm them up a bit.

hm? those... are wolf tracks aren't they? but they're pretty big'.

a little bit far away I had seen something that caught my attention and after getting closer I could see that they were wolf tracks.

"I guess...I'd better watch my step."

'remove stake x1'

in the end I decided to go with something to protect myself in my hands even if it didn't change much.

//Auuu..!//

!

I was startled to hear the howl but knowing well what it means I started running as fast as I could.

I'm not far away, I can be there in less than 5 minutes'.

after three minutes running in the snow I could reach the shelter, before entering I looked behind me, it seemed that the wolves had no intention of chasing me.

focusing my sight I could see in the distance two wolves fighting for a piece of meat, next to them there was the corpse of a rabbit being shared by three other wolves.

"huff huff huff well, it's good to know that they are not interested in me but anyway I think if I had stayed there they might stop paying attention to their food and hunt me".

...

after entering the house remove the two buckets with water and place it against the wooden door, then remove the furry skin of the rabbit and hang it to finish drying with the remaining heat of the embers left from the fire.

"open the global chat"

I stayed for a while looking at people's posts but there wasn't much new stuff.

[transaction completed: you have lost (water x100ML) and acquired (piece of cloth x1M)].

"oh, finally"

taking the fabric out of the inventory you can see that it is gray and it is a little thicker than the curtain.

"hmm~ I've done enough for today, let's wait to eviscerate the rabbit tomorrow".

I carefully lay down on the hammock and use the gray piece of cloth to cover myself even a little bit.

...
