Lyria went to her favorite farming spot outside of Everest Woods where she could kill angels for pumpkins. Pumpkins sold well in the market because they were ingredients for several food items that increased strength. It was her usual method of earning money.
"Hey, pumpkin girl."
Lyria frowned when she recognized the voice. "Don't call me that. If you're going to call me something, call me queen."
The guy who suddenly stepped into view from behind a tree was Magnus, the guildmaster of Jupiter. His guild was one of the most powerful ones in Aries, known for recruiting only skilled mages. He was also Lyria's next door neighbor before Aries was developed. It was thanks to him that Lyria entered the world of Aries.
"Nah. I like pumpkin girl better. Hey, I got you something." He pulled out a pumpkin hat while keeping a smirk on his face. "I was looking through the auction house when I found this. It reminded me of you, so I bought it."
"A pumpkin hat? Are you making fun of me?"
He laughed. "Try it on. It will make your heals more powerful."
Lyria hesitated before trying it on.
"Go on, try healing me."
She cast heal on Magnus. He was right. Her healing became twice as powerful.
"Wow. Thanks. I still feel like you're making fun of me though."
"Heh. You're welcome." He cast Lunar Flare, a fire property area of effect skill, killing all the angels around them. He picked up the pumpkins and handed them to Lyria. "So why are you farming these anyway? Money for equipment? Or are you fond of cooking? Oh! Are you making stew for me perhaps?"
"Sorry to disappoint you, but all your guesses are wrong. My friends and I are starting a guild."
"Oh? That's interesting. You need five hundred thousand, right? I can just give it to you."
Lyria shook her head. "No, I can't accept it." She didn't like owing people.
Magnus shrugged. "Alright then, but if you and your friends want to make some quick gold, you can try killing the wyvern boss at Everest Woods. At your current level, I think you and your friends can take it down. Just be sure to take cover when it starts flying in the air. You do not want to be hit by its flames. It decreases your defense by 40% if you get hit. Plus, your mana stops recovering."
She smiled. "Thanks for the information."
Magnus was fond of teasing Lyria, which annoyed her a bit. However, he was always helpful whenever she needed information on something, so she welcomed his friendship.
"If it happens to drop some iron ingots, please sell it to me. See you!" He winked and teleported away.
Lyria killed one more angel before heading off to find Astrid and the others.
