God of Systems: Maker of Heroes and Villains

Chapter 62 - 62: Shopping Spree

The first place Keith stopped at was the store that sold different fabrics. Tents weren't ready made and had to be stitched by hand, so this was the only way to get things done. If one needed to build a temporary shelter in the wild, then they'd need good quality cloth.

Keith spent a total of 600 just on the cloth, ropes, threads and needles, which were then given to Brandon to carry as he was the strongest among the four of them. Then, they moved on to other essentials like leather canteens, which were basically water bottles of this world.

They bought two for each one of them, totalling up to 8, which cost them 80 Baroms.

"We need some utensils. They need to be small but also not too small." Clara said as she pointed at a store that sold kitchen essentials.

They then spent another 40 Baroms on utensils before stopping as they didn't know what else they'd need.

"Hmm... I guess I'll scour the market and buy things that might be useful." Keith said, and Brandon nodded, "Good idea. I'll take these back to the church while you guys do your thing. I suggest splitting up."

Keith agreed, "Right. I'll divide the money equally."

As he said that, he counted he remaining money he had before looking up at the two girls, "I only have a hundred Baroms left."

"Make it forty, thirty and thirty. Clara and I'll take thirty."

Nodding, Keith did as he was asked to and gave them the money before heading out to

After noting down the important details like focal length, diameter and lens type, he turned to look at the guy who was working on a glass statue, only to see him staring at him.

"Oh hi, I'm here to give my custom order and the guy outside told me to talk to you about it." he explained as he handed the notebook to the guy before continuing, "I wrote down the details in here. Basically, I just need a lens and if you give it a handle like a magnifying glass, then that'd be great too."

"Easy stuff." the man said as he took a look at Keith's notes before nodding, "Looks like you know your stuff, huh? By the way, each lens will cost you 3 Baroms."

"I'll take two then."

Hearing his words, the guy nodded, "Okay, feel free to take a seat right there." he said as he pointed towards a wooden chair.

Keith thanked him and took a seat before watching the artist do his job. He first grabbed a thick glass slab and cut a medium sized rectangle out of it before making two circles.

Once that was done, he tossed them into the furnace to let them heat up so that they could be malleable enough for him to work with. It took some time, but once the time was ripe, he took out the semi molten glass and began shaping it with just a few metal spatulas.

To Keith who was used to seeing people use machines to get things done easily and efficiently, this was like watching a master at work.

Both the lenses had gone through the shaping process, but now there was nothing much to do but wait, which Keith happily did as he needed some alone time to think about a few things without having two idiots fighting all the time near him.
