upgrades! The gauntlets and boots had both an attack and defense rating.
He would not be dodging much in the way of attacks at the moment, but his total defense would be over two hundred points after adjusting for the agility penalties! Of course, this amazing upgrade in defense came at a disturbing price.
“So, your total comes to fifty-four thousand, eight hundred eighty Fayth for your equipment.” said Erido.
Scott’s anal sphincter involuntarily clenched. It was the best possible equipment he was going to find for the moment. Even if he found better gear and sold this stuff, he would still only receive a fraction of the cost back. Still, for someone who had no prospects otherwise it would be a great deal. At least, it was the best deal that he was going to get unless he intended to hunt rabbits for the next few months.
Of course, if he defaulted on his debt, he would be hunted down and murdered. His entire life would be consumed with earning money for a while.
He already knew the first place he was going to go after he left here, however. Scott had a theory to test.
The sorcerer handed over one thousand Fayth, the agreed upon first payment. He would have to pay a minimum of four thousand Fayth per month after this to avoid late fees. Was he stupid for accepting such a deal? Yes. Still, it was better that fighting in jeans and a t-shirt. Of course, he did not have to buy the entire suit at one time. Buying it piece by piece would have been far more reasonable.
The sorcerer wanted to explore the world, however. He wanted to see what he could find. He craved adventure. At his current rate, he would have spent months in the area just to earn basic equipment. The expense would be worth it if he could see new places.
Scott took his new equipment and equipped it all in the fitting room. After officially equipping it, the armor and weapons automatically fitted themselves perfectly to his frame. “Hey, convenient!”
The newly attired sorcerer checked his appearance in the mirror. He cut a rather dashing figure in his black lacquered armor. He had chosen the glossy finish used for the lesser breastplate. It did not cost extra since it was a standard color.
*Ding!*
<<< You have equipped a perfectly matched set of armor. Your overall defense rating increases by ten percent. Your agility penalty is reduced by one point. >>>
Scott’s eyes widened excitedly. Wearing a matching armor set increases the overall capacity and reduces the agility burden of wearing armor! It was an unexpected boon and good to know. He checked his status to see the difference.

The change in his stats was absolutely ridiculous! He was barely able to hold his own before when fighting rabbits and grass rats, but with this increase in combat potential he should be able to crush them easily. The lower agility was a problem, but it was not much different than when he was level one.
“I should probably focus on raising agility for a few levels to offset things.” If he pumped a few points into agility he would be able to keep it somewhat close to his strength and accuracy. It would also increase his defense overall, so there was no reason not to do it.
“Agility till level ten, health till fifteen... then focus on mana and intellect till twenty-five?” It was a solid plan, but he would have to see what his stats were like by the time he reached level ten.
He shook his head. “No, agility till level five, then health until level ten.”
Scott would spend any ability points that he earned until he reached level five on his agility. First, the level-up modifier, and then the individual gains. He already knew that he could only choose a level-up
