She decided to leave them; it was unlikely anyone else could cross like she did, and she might need to head back eventually anyway.

The snow began to fall again, but Riley’s mood was excellent.

She pulled out the keys and focused, materializing a snowmobile on the powder.

Back on Earth, her riding skills were mediocre, but these things didn’t require balance; after a few practice laps, she hit the throttle toward home, keeping in mind she only had one canister

of gas.

Riley sped back on her new ride, making a beeline for the open–pit coal mine.

“My lady! You’ve returned!”

Joseph and his nephews emerged from the mine with a cart full of coal, faces covered in soot but looking energized.

They spotted the snowmobile immediately; though curious, they were too disciplined to ask about it.

Noticing their stares, Riley gave them a simple explanation they could understand.

“It’s a snowmobile. Think of it as… a carriage that eats special food to run really fast across the

snow.”

Joseph and the others nodded thoughtfully as Riley asked about their progress.

“By your grace! With those quality tools and Lady Neeko’s help, we’ve pulled three full carts today!” Joseph boasted.

Riley estimated the haul at around four hundred units.

“Not bad,” Riley said with a nod.

Riley nodded.

Her stamina was still high; with her gear bonuses, everyday tasks barely drained her anymore.

“Since I’m here, I’ll do a bit of digging myself.”

Riley grabbed her pick and headed into the deeper shafts.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

Her signature violent mining style echoed through the tunnels once again.

An hour later.

The last massive chunk of anthracite fell from the wall.

“Obtained: High–Quality Anthracite x 150”

Riley wiped the sweat from her brow, feeling the satisfying exhaustion of a fully spent stamina bar.

Including the natives‘ output, her coal production for the day had shattered the 600–unit mark.

This level of steady income ensured she would never want for supplies again.

After stashing the coal and doing a quick reset, Riley headed to her workshop.

She opened the crafting menu, and the Cloak of Vitality recipe finally lit up.

The Life Crystal she’d found in the WarWolf mage’s bag was the final piece of the puzzle.

“Craft!”

Riley slammed the button.

The workbench erupted in a brilliant purple radiance as rare materials melted and wove together in the air.

Thanks to her new turbines, the speed was impressive, and a deep green cloak soon emerged.

“Congratulations! Obtained: Cloak of Vitality (Epic)”

Riley hurriedly checked the stats.

Gear: Cloak of Vitality

Quality: Epic (Purple)

Stat Boosts: Constitution +12, Agility +2
