Chapter 63 – 63.Build Injection (3)
***
The day after Adelia was in the same group.
Since Yeonhwa had a class to take early in the morning, we headed to Valendia around 10 o’clock.
And since a new member had arrived, I headed to Cats Store to check if there was any equipment that could be helpful.
“Welcome~ Brother… Ah. Ah, Second Princess Adelia!?”
When we went to visit as usual, Sasha greeted us with a bright smile, but on the way, she opened her eyes wide and looked surprised when she saw Adelia.
Of course, the ears are upright! It was so cute to see her surprised when her tail stretched out.
“Uh, uh, why is Second Princess Adelia here?!”
“You are asking the obvious, Sasha. Of course, it is because Adelia also joined Portis.”
“Second Princess Adelia is in her her brother her’s her group her her her!?”
Sasha blinks and moves her eyes several times and looks at me.
It looked like it could have been cut straight out of the scene and used as a short film.
“Sasha, I want to go straight to the weapons warehouse. There, I will see if there is any equipment suitable for Adelia.”
“I’ll guide you right away!”
Sasha took us straight to the weapons warehouse.
And as soon as she arrived, she approached Adelia, rubbing her hands.
“Second Princess Adelia! It’s truly an honor for you to visit Cat’s Company! But I’m worried whether our store will have products that will satisfy Second Princess Adelia! No! Of course! We are proud of all of our products… !”
Sasha is recreating the appearance of a typical merchant who meets royalty.
It was a very rare scene where Sasha, always bright and playful with a bright smile, was groveling, something I had never seen even at Rupan’s events.
“Treat her comfortably. And since it will be inconvenient to call her, you can leave out the second princess.”
“Okay! Adelia! Ahhh! What should I recommend… ! This? Or this?”
Sasha is wandering through her weapons warehouse, looking for the right supplies for Adelia.
“Sha, this is my first time seeing you so embarrassed.”
“Even merchants who always seem relaxed act like that in front of royalty.”
“I think it’s a good thing for a merchant to behave well.”
“Hmm…”
Adelia was making a subtle expression.
She probably did it because Sasha was trying to make herself look good by coming to her.
Even in Rupan’s event, there was even a scene where Adelia was worried because her merchants were so apologetic when she tried to see her market on the streets of Raden Kingdom.
If I left Sasha alone, she would think for a long time about what to recommend, so she decided to join me in looking for it.
Anyway, I know the equipment options that suit Adelia, so I will find them faster.
After a while, I found the right equipment for Adelia.
[Band of Blessing: The power increase due to the skill increases by 20%. A band suitable for those who devote themselves to someone.]
Increase in power due to skill.
It feels like I’m saying this in a roundabout way, but it ultimately means increasing the amount of buff.
“Shasha.”
“Yes! What’s going on, oppa~!”
“This looks good.”
“You mean that? But it’s an item that her priests love? Wouldn’t something different suit Adelia?”
“No, then Adelia will hit you even harder.”
I approached Adelia with the blessing band.
“Adelia, I recommend this to you.”
“This?”
“They say it’s a band that priests often use. It’s equipment that helps with assisting skills. This would also be effective for the blessings on the album.”
“As for the blessings of increasing number… Indeed. Just like the skills used by priests that increase strength and agility, the blessings of increasing number are of the same type. So…”
Even with a simple explanation, Adelia immediately understood what I meant.
As expected, because she was a royal, she must have been well-educated because she was quick-witted.
“Sasha, Adelia also says this is good.”
“If Adelia likes it! That’s a relief!”
Sasha smiled with relief.
I’ll gradually get used to it as we meet more often in the future, but since this is my first time, I can’t help but feel nervous.
“But how can I wear this?”
Even though the Blessing Band is a band, it does not look like a headband.
To put it bluntly, it was like a thin belt.
There is just the right way to use something like this.
In subcultures, it is often very useful in highlighting one area.
“I could wear it on my thigh.”
“On your thighs?”
“Okay. It’s long enough to wear on your arm, so it would be best to wear it on your thigh.”
“I sure would like that.”
Without any suspicion, Adelia wrapped the band around her thigh as I recommended.
Put the band around your thighs and snap! She did so and incorporated snap buttons attached to both ends of the band.
The elasticity of the material itself ensured that even after it was installed, it didn’t fall down or slip down, keeping Adelia’s thighs slightly tight.
‘Adelia wearing a thigh band… There was no costume like this even in Rupan.’
It feels like a small accessory has been added, but as a user who enjoys subculture, even such a small change can be felt greatly.
“This is Adelia’s first purchase since joining Portis, so it would be nice to have a photo of her as a souvenir.”
“Photo?”
“Heh, leave the photos to me! I’ll take really nice photos!”
“Ah! Atsubal! There are items for sale here, so if you want to take pictures, please take them in my office!”
Adelia was surprised to hear that they were suddenly taking pictures of her, but she didn’t say she didn’t like it.
Snap!
“Don’t stand still, strike a pose!”
“P-pose? Um… “Do you mean like this?”
Suddenly, Adelia drew her sword and took a stance as if she had sparred with me.
“Very good!”
Click! Snap!
After taking a photo of Adelia, the number of Portis members increased, so we moved on to taking a group photo of her to commemorate her. This time it was Sasha who took her picture of her.
“Chi~zu!”
Snap!
“It’s a group photo… “
Adelia looked at the group photo she had taken, then slightly raised the corners of her mouth and smiled.
After taking all the pictures, she bought just one more cushion since she didn’t have any supplies to buy yet, and was about to leave Cats Store.
“Ah! Pamela! Please wait a moment!”
“Huh?! Me, me? What’s going on?”
“You have to get the down payment settled~. Last month’s payment came in~.”
Sasha rubbed her palms together with a different feeling than when she did it to Adelia.
“Contract? What do you mean?”
“Oh, Adelia, you don’t know. Pamela said to have signed a contract with Cats Company using the medicine recipe she has.”
“Medicine?”
“The medicine that Pamela makes in the clubroom.”
“I never would have guessed that those were items under contract with Cats Company…”
“Pamela, take it and come.”
“Yes, yes!”
Sasha took out a heavy money bag from the safe in her office.
“Here you are, Pamela!”
“Uh, uh, uhhh!?”
Pamela was shocked when she received the money bag that Sasha gave her.
“This, this, this is all the down payment? Really?”
“Of course! The medicine made from the recipe provided by Pamela is the main product of Cats Company these days! It’s very popular!”
“Well, well, still, this much money… !”
Pamela looked back at me, trembling.
“Uh, uh, uh, what should I do, Mr. Sihan… !”
As a rough estimate, the amount Pamela received was approximately 1.5 times the joint funds raised so far by Fortis during her activities, excluding the amount of the body of the Holy Water of Water.
At least, this is the amount of money that an ordinary worker in this world must earn for more than half a year.
Even if Pamela signed a contract, she would never have thought that she would receive this much money.
“Pamela.”
“Yes, yes!”
“That’s money you earned through a legitimate contract. So keep it.”
“Ha, but can I have this much money?”
“Of course. If you’re really worried, I’ll talk to you later about how to use it.”
Pamela’s pale face has improved significantly.
“Yes, yes… Thank you. Ko, I will definitely consult with you…”
Pamela put her purse into her subspace ring with her trembling hands.
“Sasha, we’ll just go.”
“Yes! Goodbye, everyone~!”
After leaving Cat’s Store, we skipped the Adventurer’s Guild and took a carriage straight to the area where Adelia thought there might be a runaway monster.
Shake! Shake!
“Indeed. That’s why I bought the cushion.”
Adelia felt the rattling of the carriage and felt the need for a cushion.
Approximately 2 hours later.
We arrived at the Stone Oak’s habitat.
According to Adelia, there has been information that the Stone Orcs in this area have recently become vicious.
Before encountering the Stone Orc, I asked Adelia.
“Adelia, I have a question.”
“What is it?”
“When I saw what was displayed during the sparring… I knew that the blessing of the mountain increases the power. Could it be possible for us to receive that effect as well?”
I already know the game effect, but other members don’t know the blessing effect of the recording.
So, I asked Adelia to help her understand what kind of skill Blessing of Blessing is.
Adelia nodded her head.
“It is possible. The blessing of the mountain increases the power of the skills used by those who think of themselves as allies in the spread out camp.”
“I see.”
“Oh, is that really true? It’s literally similar to the auxiliary skills used by priests.”
“You can say that. However, the blessing of the rising is a secret power handed down from the royal family. The power it increases is superior to the auxiliary skills of ordinary priests.”
Adelia, full of pride, further explained the effects of the blessings on the record.
“It will be at least three times more powerful than usual.”
“Three times… ? Then my lightning is three times as much as usual… ! Ugh! Adelia Raden!”
“What is it?”
“If you encounter a Stone Orc, use the blessing of the mountain right away! I’ll show you how powerful my magic is the moment it increases to three times!”
Atsubal slightly diverted his request to taste dilppong.
“No, the blessing of the record is… Um. I almost made a mistake again. I understand. I’ll do it.”
“That’s a very good answer! Come on! Let’s go! Monsters that may have run amok are waiting for us!”
“Ah, Mr. Atsubal! Don’t leave, let’s go together!”
Atsubal took the lead with light steps.
Originally, I was going to tell you to use the blessing of the first battle first.
Before I knew it, Artsval was taking care of the process.
