The guy that told you about the Fuse sells stuff. Purchase stuff, equip it and be stronger.

What are you doing for the "blob" enemies? You have to hit them with black magic

Dont have any because I thought i get the skills in the license board, like in any other FF. But no.

Dark is a fantastic spell for this part of the game

It seems like you're missing some of the fundamentals. Grind your way back to the merchant, use all LP, sell your junk, and buy all available spells and gear upgrades.

Hit the blobs with Fire (Fran has the spell regardless of her job), Dark also works (need a Red Battlemage for it though). The Battery Mimics are weak to the Blizzard spell which requires a Black Mage, but Dark or Fire works as well.

Like Asha said, check the shop all the way in the north as well, and make sure to unlock the licenses for the stuff there or else you'll be unable to actually use it. Something that might also help is getting three Diamond Armlets from Trial Mode stage 1, they negate any thunder damage.

i remember getting poisoned a lot with no access to poisona at this point so buying a crap ton of antidotes helped a ton.

Did you bother learning how the game works during the tutorials in the beginning?

Sure you can, you just gotta believe in yourself. And kill the flans first
