[Ace POV],

[Reward received],

[5 free item tickets from the store received],

[Depending on how precious the item chosen is, will tell how many items you can still take from the store],

[*Ding],

[Store unlocked],

Looking at the new notifications that appeared on the panel in front of me, it was clear that the reward I was given was in the store.

And the part about how valuable the thing I choose determines how many items I can still take; I believe that if I take a precious item from the store, the five opportunities I have to take free items from the store may be reduced to two.

Meaning that a particular item in the store might take 2 to 3 chances of free items.

Of course, this is just my speculation.

With these thoughts in mind, I called out the primordial chronicle in my head as my status appeared on the panel in front of me.

[Status],

[Name: Ace Blaze],

[Age: 17],

[Race: Human [Homo sapiens]],

[Affiliate: None],

[Rank: Unranked],

[Level: 14],

[Job: None],

[Store],

[Title: None],

When I looked at the familiar status on the panel in front of me, I realized it had changed when I saw something was added,

Affiliate and rank

However, I ignored them because assuming their function there would lead me nowhere.

So I went straight to the now-unlocked store section and opened it instead.

As soon as I focused my attention on the store, the words on the panel in front of me changed, and a new section with new words emerged in front of me.

[Store],

[General], [Knowledge], [Item], [Exchange], [Shop], [Auction],

Under the store section on the panel in front of me, there are six sub-options.

General, Knowledge, Item, Exchange, Shop, and Auction.

These sub-options raised new questions in my head, and the sub-option labeled Knowledge was the most interesting to me.

Learning new things was the only thing I had that came near to what people termed a life purpose.

I wouldn\'t call it a hobby because it\'s just a waste of time with people trying to make it sound pleasant.

Or maybe it\'s because I don\'t have the same sensation or desire that others feel when they do their hobbies.

I just know that learning and discovering new things has always felt comfortable to me.

It was because of this that I learned the way of the old age from Gustav in the first place.

Putting these ideas aside, I concentrated on the panel in front of me.

According to the primordial record, my rewards were five items from the store or so, and it was free depending on my choice.

Not knowing what that meant, I chose the knowledge sub-option first.

[Knowledge],

[Basic taming knowledge], [10 Gold Coins] [+]

[Basic Shooting Knowledge],

[Basic Potion Making knowledge],

[Basic Blacksmith Knowledge],

[Basic Herbs Catelog],

[Basic Alchemy knowledge],

[Basic Inscription Knowledge],

[Basic Formation Knowledge],

[Basic Universal language],

[Basic Sword Techniques],

[Basic Magic Spells],

[Rank 1 Basic Magic Spells]

.....

....

..

.

I opened the knowledge sub-option right away and was immediately overwhelmed by the variety of items I saw.

Under the knowledge section, there were other sub-options.

[General], [Cultivation manual], [Techniques], [Spells] and [Information].

I chose the General sub-option because it was a combination of all the sub-options.

I rubbed my temples and returned my attention to the panel, attempting to better understand what I was seeing.

Huh.... on a second note, I don\'t understand a thing here.

However, it is simpler to explain that I am unsure of the thoughts going through my head rather than claiming that I understand nothing.

If I had to be more direct, I would say that everything in the knowledge section is precisely as it seems.

Knowledge.

Knowledge that can be brought.

However, based on the items listed in the knowledge section, it appears that the entire thing here was lifted from a fantasy novel or movie.

Perhaps I should have read more webnovels huh?

Potion? Alchemy? Inscription? Formation?

These terms, as well as several others listed under them, were unfamiliar to me.

I could still grasp the herds and blacksmith parts.

However, the potion, alchemy, inscription, array, and the rest written alongside it were quite challenging for the contemporary me to understand.

Perhaps I could refer to some things to have a hazy grasp of them, but it might lead me astray.

Right now, the curious me just wanted to know what everything stated here meant.

However, reality is harsh.

On the panel in the store section, there was something that reminded me of my current financial situation at the bottom and last part.

[Total Coins: 0000],

Am poor.

Really poor.

In fact, the \'0000\' written after the total quantity of coins I hold was written in a different color.

Perhaps the primordial chronicle is attempting to stress how poor I am.

I wasn\'t surprised about the coin part since it was evident that I was intended to use a form of currency in the \'store.\'

I simply don\'t know how to obtain this coin.

It didn\'t help that there was no guide for me here.

Looking over the items in the knowledge area again, I focused on the [+] there, ignoring the price mentioned next to it.

Before I could figure out what it was for, a notification appeared on the panel in front of me, blurring the one that was there before.

.....

[Redeem 1 free item ticket for [Basic taming knowledge]?],

[Y/N],

So this is how we use the free item ticket.

\'I wonder if I can see more information about the Basic Taming Knowledge,\' I thought as the information I was curious about suddenly appeared on the panel in front of me.

It appears that, in addition to willing my thoughts, I can simply think about what I desire and the primal chronicle will do it for me.

Convenient.

Looking at the panel in front of me, I read the information about Basic taming knowledge.

[Basic Taming Knowledge],

Basic taming techniques and information, including how to tame animals, monsters, and magical monsters.

[Buy for 10 Gold coins?],

[Y/N],

.....

That\'s not much information, but it\'s better than nothing.

At the very least, am now aware that monsters are not all the same and may differ.

Perhaps this is due to the fact that one can use magic while the other cannot.

But that is not my current focus.

I skipped the section when the primordial chronicle asked me to buy the taming knowledge with coins since I don\'t have any.

Seeing that I could see the information on the things listed in the knowledge section, I started checking out the information on the ones I was most curious about.

Potion making, sword techniques, formation, alchemy, and so on and so forth, I checked the ones that piqued my interest and cut it down to three.

I also used the free item tickets I had on hand to see how valuable the items I wanted out are.

These are the three:

[Basic Mana Circulation Technique],

[Basic Alchemy Knowledge],

[Basic Support magic],

.....

These are the three that I chose.

According to the primordial chronicle, the Basic mana circulation technique will raise the total amount of mana in the body while making it slightly \'pure\' in the process.

I\'m not sure what the pure there means, but having more mana isn\'t a bad thing.

The Basic Support Magic is included in the list because it is a collection of techniques that utilize the mana in the body for various purposes.

The major reason for including this is because of my reasoning.

What\'s the point of having more mana if you can\'t actively use it?

That is the reason it is listed there.

Now, Alchemy.

It\'s only because of the information I read about it that it\'s there.

[Basic Alchemy Knowledge],

Basic Alchemy Knowledge that contains various techniques on formation, inscription, rune, and others to create.

Alchemy is processing and transmuting substances or materials to create something else.

....

Is this not science, if viewed from a different perspective?

But science in relation to magic?

I\'m not sure, but based on the Primordial Chronicle\'s vague explanation of Alchemy, this could be considered science.

Or perhaps chemistry as well.

After all, chemistry is a branch of science that is concerned with the substances of which matter is composed, the investigation of their properties and reactions, and the use of such reactions to form new substances.

Alchemy, if I recall properly, is the job of an alchemist.

Alchemists, I believe the old people named them ancient scientists because their job was active when civilization and science were still in their early stages.

Perhaps I\'m overthinking things because I saw substance in the information under alchemy and the similarities with science.

So, which of these three will I choose?

I understand that using the free item ticket I have in the knowledge section may not improve my fighting prowess and may even appear to be a waste, as using the ticket to purchase more equipment to increase my strength will obviously be more beneficial in this new environment.

This may appear to be a simple thought.

But I\'m actually simply going down the \'Knowledge is Power\' path.

And I\'m not sure why, but it appears that I..... love learning or more correctly, the concept \'Knowledge\'.
