Chapter 159 : Robe, Hunting Plan
Chapter 159: Robe, Hunting Plan
Arya had also long since chosen the cantrip she needed.
There were not many common cantrips available for a Druid to choose from.
Gauss had already mastered 【Mending】. The same went for 【Fire Bolt】—its function could be replaced by similar cantrips and spells Gauss already possessed. 【Thorn Whip】 was merely a weakened version of the 【Entangling Spell】, while she had already mastered the 【Oak Club Technique】.
For the sake of the team, she purchased 【Guidance】.

【Guidance】 was a non-combat support cantrip that could bestow blessings on oneself or another target. As it was a cantrip, its strength was average and ineffective in intense combat. However, in other situations—such as exploration, trap detection, negotiations, climbing, jumping, reading runes or complex knowledge, recalling information, and so on—bestowing a blessing could provide assistance, improving the target’s condition and making it easier to accomplish the current task.
After making their payment, the two immediately moved next door to the magical items shop.

It was the same place where Gauss had previously purchased the 【Small Storage Bag】.
Magical items could generally be divided into several categories.
The first was weapons—for example, various blades imbued with special effects. Wands also belonged to this category, with prices ranging from low to very high.
The second was protection gear—by engraving magical runes, the gear was granted stronger defensive capabilities.

Lastly came the far more diverse category of wondrous items—amulets, alchemical flasks, storage bags, floating carpets, elemental gems, phantom cloaks, and so on.
Wondrous items could be man-made or naturally formed. But without exception, they all possessed magical powers. Wearing or using them would grant corresponding magical enhancements or effects.
Based on quality, magical items were further divided into Common [White-grade], Rare [Blue-grade], Extraordinary [Purple-grade], and Epic [Gold-grade]. The color-based grading existed because these magical items would display different lusters when appraised with the 【Identification Spell】.
Low-class Professionals most often encountered White-grade items, which had simple and practical magical effects.

Gauss walked straight toward the robe section.
The sales assistant quickly approached with enthusiasm, her gaze lingering briefly on the Two-star Badge on his chest before her smile grew even brighter. Professional rank was often proportional to spending power.

“Adventurer sir, looking for a robe? This is our new season’s style—would you like to try it?” the sales assistant leaned closer.
“What’s different about them?”
“This one is a self-cleaning robe—less prone to staining from blood or dust, and it slowly cleans itself over time, saving you the trouble of washing.”
“This one is a self-repairing robe—minor tears or frayed stitching can repair themselves.”
“This one is a protective robe—its material is more flexible yet durable. While its protection is inferior to medium- or heavy-grade metal armor, it’s better than ordinary cloth or leather armor, and far more maneuverable than regular armor.”
Even the most basic White-grade robes came in a wide variety of functions, colors, and patterns, priced between 5 and 10 gold coins.

After careful selection, Gauss ultimately chose a plain black protective robe.
A robe was essentially still armor.
It was common knowledge that armor must first and foremost provide protection.
Thus, his priority was defensive performance. As for color, he opted for a simple, dirt-resistant black.
Unlike leather armor, a mage’s robe combined the convenience of combat and daily wear—one only needed to put it over an undershirt.
After paying 7 gold coins, Gauss used 【Prestidigitation】 on the spot to clean the new robe before changing into it.

Once he donned the robe, he immediately looked the part of a mage.
Gauss gazed into the fitting mirror.

He nodded in satisfaction.
At least while moving about town, his appearance was no longer that of an ordinary citizen in linen clothes.
And indeed, the robe was worth the 7 gold coins—though it was a plain black that looked unremarkable, when draped over him it exuded an indescribable air of mysterious authority.
In terms of craftsmanship, the plain black robe had fine-spun spider silk beneath its surface, very soft and lightweight.

The wide cuffs resembled raven wings; as he swung his arms, the sleeves fluttered with a light and agile grace.
It was hard not to feel the money had been well spent—regardless of the actual protective performance, at least its appearance was flawless.
Arya, on the other hand, bought a saddle for the gray wolf Ulfen, which reduced weight and slightly increased agility and movement speed. She also bought a dark-blue protective shoulder cape, mainly for the contracted raven Ike to perch on, with cleaning and durability enchantments.
She additionally purchased a small shovel that could detect the location of roots beneath the soil—convenient for daily gardening.

After their shopping spree, both wore satisfied smiles. Though they had spent a fair sum, gold coins existed for moments like this—and since each purchase was put to good use, there was no reason to feel any regret.
Leaving the Adventurer’s Guild Headquarters, they also bought some holiday supplies together.

The days ahead would be a time to settle down and digest the harvest from the Winter Hunt, focusing on training. Once the holidays passed and the wind and snow eased, a new season of commissions would begin.
Such was the life of an adventurer—long vacations were nonexistent. Even during rest periods, one had to maintain a certain amount of practice, for the body and mind were prone to laziness, and many skills and combat techniques would deteriorate without use.
If a Professional truly rested for months without any training, their abilities would decline rapidly.
This was why many retired Professionals saw their combat power plummet after leaving the adventuring life, sometimes even showing signs of level regression.
Of course, this did not apply to all retired Professionals—it largely depended on self-discipline.
Gauss returned home and began decorating his two-story house.

Outside, the snowfall was growing heavier.
Several nearby houses with occupants glowed warmly with candlelight, appearing cozy under the drifting snow.
After resting for half a day, Gauss took out the skill book for the Tier 1 【Identification Spell】 he had just purchased, lying on his bed to read quietly.
Tier 1 spell models were far more complex than those of cantrips.
But perhaps due to advancing to Class Rank 2, he now found reading the Tier 1 spell model much easier than before.
It was like entering high school—once you had gained more knowledge and stronger thinking skills, revisiting middle school content became far less difficult.

He needed to make the most of his time to study and train spells, for once the holidays ended, he would resume taking commissions.
Next year, he planned to start by farming some Goblins—after all, his 【Reptilian Strain】 racial talent was still at its initial level, and he wanted to at least upgrade it to mastery.

After that, he would advance his Path of Elites, beginning the hunt for Elite Monsters.
As for whether to take on easier Tier 1 missions or more challenging Tier 2 missions, Gauss would decide when the time came.
Tier 1 missions were usually closer, faster to complete, and carried a lower risk of danger or accidents, making it possible to complete several in succession.
Tier 2 missions were farther from town, involved encounters with Elite Monsters and greater numbers of lesser monsters, and also had higher chances of running into other powerful creatures along the way—meaning a recovery period was often needed afterward.

Each had its pros and cons, and Gauss would decide depending on next year’s schedule.
Fortunately, after advancing to Class Rank 2, he now had more strength to support a wider range of choices—whether taking on higher-level missions or expanding his activity range to other towns, both were now within consideration.
Outside the window, over Graystone Town, the low, gray sky steadily released snowflakes. At the horizon where it met the Emerald Forest, black clouds churned, and the snowfall intensified.
From the kingdom’s inland direction, the thick cloud layer was split apart by several streamlined, massive figures.

A resounding screech pierced the sky, accompanied by heavy wind pressure.
Several enormous Griffins, their wings carrying snow foam, burst through the low, leaden clouds and slowly descended onto the frozen, icy square at the center of Graystone Town.
