After the events within the quarry. Asai alone travelled northwards, towards Einhoren. An unknown amount of time has passed since he ventured forth from the orphanage. A gentle campfire kept him warm as he gazed upon the stars above.

"Mel... Kozumi..." Although he appreciated Sister Mary's warmth. Experiencing and going through life and death situations with Mel and Kozumi naturally left him with a profound sense of bond with them. Heck, if Clam wasn't such an ass twat, he would probably consider him a brother. Being alone, he couldn't actually afford to fall into a deep state of sleep.

The slightest noise would wake him, jerking him away from slumber. When he first began his journey north. He had let his guard down and allowed a small pack of vargs to sneap up on him. Luckily, level 5 vargs were no longer a match for him. He did however, take the opportunity to test [Psychic phantom] He still couldn't control it properly. The varg, rather than being sliced apart. It's torso blew up, all the intestines and blood splat onto him... Thank god he was close. From the far distance, he could see the outline of Einhoren. 

...

Upon reaching Einhoren. He paid the usual passage fee which was a few coins. Something he could afford since for reason unknown to him, and something that everyone else seemed to accept without question was that, every so often on a random chance which was quite rare. Monster kills would drop coins. 

There was no way to tell what metal was used for the coinage, as they seemed to be blessed by Loha herself. Literally indestructible. A shame they couldn't be weaponized. 

"Rules of the world huh?" He murmured. As Asai was inspecting a coin, he felt a little killing intent come his way. He quickly readied himself to summon his weapon from the inventory, but when his line of sight connected with the perpetrator. He was somewhat let down to see a street urchin within the alleyways glaring at him.

The boy's hair was a dirty mud brown. He was skinny and clearly hungry. Dirty bandages wrapped around his head, around one of his eyes. With only rags to his name, his feet black from dirt. Asai approached the alleys, a little nostalgia hitting him. The boy ran before he could get there.

Upon reaching the entrance of the alleyway he stood for a moment.

"What's your name boy?" He questioned, seemingly to no one. "Are you hungry? Do you want food?" The young boy came out of the trash pile. However, still somewhat hidden. Asai was unable to check his status.

"What do you want Mr!?"

"MR!? I'm not that old!" The boy ferociously glared at him with his one able eye. "Mm, so I can't check his system unless I can see both eyes?" Asai figured. Seeing the boy back away he called out. "Wait, how about this. Information, I want to purchase information from you. How about it?" He saw the boy hesitate, his feet stopped. From his inventory Asai pulled out an apple in which he plucked from earlier. With his restricted vision, the boy didn't realize Asai had just used a skill and simply thought he had pulled the apple out of his travel bag. "A coin and also this apple how about it?"

"What do you want?" With a voice full of hostility the boy questioned.

"Your name. The information I want is your name." Asai stated.

"... Robin. My name is Robin." After having given his name, the boy quickly snatched both the coin and apple before running. Asai didn't give chase. For he had no reason to.

"Well, that's my random good deed of the day done. Whatever god is up there watching me, I hope you saw that." Feeling a little better about himself, Asai made his way towards the closest in. For food, for bath, and bed.

...

"Did you see that? He has money. Round up the others, lets take it from him." Two others nod, before running off.
