While waiting for William, Nash logged into the Virtual World.
Scrolling through a list of virtual IDs of individuals he had been with during their hunt for the perfect herb, he began messaging them one by one.
Knowing there was strength in numbers, Nash wanted to form a team to earn merits.
Fighting dark beasts alone was no longer sustainable for his growth.
Unless the dark beasts came at him in endless waves, earning merits was never as fast as picking herbs.
Of course, it would have been more profitable if he had turned them into potions.
Unfortunately, he didn't have time to study them, much less create a module system specifically for potion-making.
Nash's current goal was to earn merits while optimizing the runic module systems to keep up with his strength.
Only after all that would he have time to create a new runic module system.
After notifying each available individual, Nash returned to the Dark Plane.
