Xiaolin did not exchange the treasure he received from Keel directly into money at the guild counter.
Although it is simple and convenient to exchange loot into money in the guild, it is something that most adventurers will do. But in fact, in order to operate, the guild will take a small commission as compensation. So Xiao Lin, who had purchasing channels, came to another place instead.
The rest of the team was fine. Only Aqua heard that Xiaolin was coming here and shouted desperately to follow him.
I have no idea what she is planning, and there is nothing I can do to dissuade her.
In desperation, he had to take her with him.
After wandering around the alleys of the town, I soon came to this shop in a remote alley with not much customer traffic and specializing in small magic props.
——Witz Magic Item Shop.
The two stood under the plaque at the door.
Xiaolin held down Aqua, who was roaring in a hurry, and told her: "Listen up, Aqua. Let me tell you clearly now. You must not mess around, fight, use magic, or go too far. Bullying her, do you understand?"
"Wait, how could I do that? I wanted to protest before. I am a goddess, not a gangster or a gangster! I am a goddess, a goddess. Besides, Wiz gives me money every month How could someone who paid tribute attack her?" Hearing what Xiaolin said, Aqua tilted her head and protested with an annoyed look on her face.
"Really? I don't believe it."
Xiao Lin was full of doubts.
Even though she said that now, I always felt like she would scream and pounce on Wiz as soon as she entered, claiming to destroy the Demon King's army cadres.
Needless to say, the purpose is naturally a high reward.
Although Wiz was not offered a bounty, he could not explain this to the persistent Mozuo. He had already experienced this many times.
"Forget it, I'll watch you."
Holding the goddess who was full of complaints for the time being, Xiaolin pushed open the door of the shop.
The bell hanging above the door made a crisp sound, informing the owner of the shop that a customer was coming.
"Welcome light...ahhh!"
"Suffer death, Lich! I will exchange you for the bounty today! 300 million Eris, here I come!"
As soon as she entered the door, Aqua forgot her previous instructions and promises, and rushed towards Wiz with a ferocious face and a strange scream.
Then Xiao Lin grabbed her with quick eyes and hands, and slashed her on the back of the head with a knife.
What did this guy just say?
Aqua just covered the back of her head and squatted down. Xiaolin ignored her and greeted the scared shop owner.
"Wiz, long time no see."
"Yes, yes, long time no see..."
Wiz clasped her hands in front of her chest, trembling in front of the gods like a devout nun. However, the goddess did not grant her blessings, but wanted to kill her in exchange for bonuses.
"W-Why would Aqua-sama...?"
"Because she looks at you like three hundred million people walking."
"Eh?"
"No, it's nothing."
Apparently the cute Lich lady didn't understand Xiao Lin's hidden meaning, but she still invited them to sit down.
"Well... no matter what, please come in first."
"Hmph, I guess you know the truth."
Aqua didn't know what she had just done. She even walked into the hall to the extreme and sat down on the chair with her legs crossed, looking like she was not doing anything right.
He even blamed the timid Wiz next to him and scolded: "Hey, where's the tea? Doesn't this shop even prepare a cup of tea for customers?"
"No, sorry! I'm going now!"
Wiz hurried to the back.
Hey, hey, who just said that he is not a gangster or a gangster? Isn't this deliberately making things difficult and insidious what only shameless gangsters and hooligans do? Moreover, he clamored to exchange his younger brother Wiz for a bounty, which is what bad gangsters would do!
"Aqua."
"Because, all
It's her bomb that cost us hundreds of millions of dollars in debt! "
Hearing Xiaolin's accusation, Aqua felt aggrieved.
Good guy, he is good at throwing dirty water.
It's obvious that Wiz is just selling goods, and the person who issued the order is Xiaolin, but she still puts the blame on Wiz's head. Is there anyone like you who is a goddess?
"You should know that Wiz has no bounty on his head."
"That's right. But she is the store manager. This magic item shop should be worth a lot of money. Hehehehe...hehehehehe..."
It's over, this guy is hopeless.
Aqua has gone further and further down the road of being a gangster, and she doesn't understand the principle of taking advantage of others.
Xiao Lin blamed: "Anyway, Wiz is our companion now, and we are not allowed to play tricks on her. And she pays tribute to you every month. At least you have the magnanimity that a goddess should have."
After speaking, he pointed at her fairly broad mind.
Aqua curled her lips and said unhappily: "Yes, yes, I understand, and I won't make things difficult for her anymore."
Hope she can keep her word.
At this time, Wiz came out from behind with hot tea and respectfully poured a cup for Aqua.
Aqua always stared at Wiz with a dangerous look, as if she was ready to use coercion to make Wiz make mistakes so that she could have an excuse to make things difficult, but she was struck with a knife in the back of the head by Kobayashi.
Ignoring the tearful goddess holding her head, Xiaolin took the initiative to enter the topic.
"Wiz, we met another lich yesterday. His name is Kil. Yes, he is the owner of Kil's dungeon where novices go. Do you know him?"
"...I'm sorry, I don't know him."
Wiz shook his head apologetically.
Xiaolin was not disappointed. After all, Wiz had only been a lich for a short time, so it was normal not to know about Kil's past.
Of course, this is not the main purpose of their coming today.
Take out the treasure left behind by Keir.
"Wiz, we want to buy something from you, is that okay?"
"sure!"
Xiao Lin was a big customer, and Wiz's face was filled with joy, and she jumped up with excitement. Bouncing together with the plump chest, it really attracts attention.
Ahem, let’s get down to business first.
The first is the most important magic stone crystal. It contains high-quality magic power. It can not only replace the consumption of burst magic, but also charge the Teigu [Shangri-La]. It has a wide range of applicability.
It's a pity that Megumin used magic without restraint and consumed all the magic crystals. She should talk to her about this after returning.
Then there are the crystal bombs.
Although it has the same power as Explosion Magic, the price-performance ratio is not that high, so I don't plan to buy this one for the time being.
Then there are some other things to add.
"Magic crystals, skill point potions, special precious ingredients... I have already written them down." Wiz took a small notebook and wrote down all Xiaolin's requirements, preparing to complete Xiaolin's commission and put the treasure under the counter at the same time.
Aqua's eyes kept following the treasure, and her expression was very painful after the golden light disappeared.
This miser goddess.
Just when Xiaolin was about to teach her a lesson, Aqua suddenly said, "Hey, I remember that I still haven't picked up the 200,000 magic items this month."
"Yes, Lady Aqua. I wonder if you have anything you like?" Wiz said.
Is it a magic tool...?
To be honest, the previous magic items were very useful. Whether it was crystal bombs or water slippers, they were so useful that they didn't look like items from Wiz's shop.
If only there was something eye-catching this time.
Suddenly, Xiao Lin's eyes were attracted by a small, colorful crystal ball.
Subconsciously take it in your hand.
"this is?"
"Ah, this is a magic item I accidentally collected. It can add special effects to people, and
I don’t know what effect it will have depending on the person. It may be good or it may be bad, but because I find it interesting, I put it in the store. "
"Random BUFF? Interesting."
To put it bluntly, this magic item is about improving one's character. It is of little use to someone with mediocre luck like Kobayashi, but it is quite useful to someone with super luck like Kazuma Sato.
"how much is this?"
"19.9 Eris."
This ambiguous price always makes people feel something is wrong.
Aqua grabbed Wiz's collar and said viciously: "Hey, Lich, could this price be intentional?"
"Yes, you're right!" Wiz said with a smile instead: "Originally, it was priced at Eris, but since Aqua-sama likes it, let's lower the price slightly."
"That's right...Humph, you know what's going on." Even Aqua felt a little embarrassed.
Xiao Lin was also slightly embarrassed.
Sorry, Wiz, I misunderstood you.
"So, how to use it?"
"Yes! As long as you input mental power and magic power, it will add a random BUFF to you, but it cannot guarantee whether it is good or bad. Please be careful about this, Mr. Kobayashi."
"I'll pay attention."
Please, as long as the goddess is by your side, you won't panic at all.
He used the magic items neatly and neatly. As his mental power and magic power flowed away, he could feel something special flowing into it from his body.
But before he could feel it carefully, another kind of energy fed back from the crystal ball.
"Well."
Xiao Lin unconsciously covered his forehead.
I don't know if it was because he had consumed too much magic and mental energy, or for some other reason. Xiaolin only felt that his steps were sluggish, and he slumped unsteadily on the chair, frowning slightly.
"Xiao Lin!"
Aqua came over nervously and kept checking Xiaolin's body, but even the goddess of water found nothing unusual.
Putting your forehead against it, you can feel the moisture and delicateness of her skin, as well as the fresh smell and faint smell of wine.
Wait, she drank?
Is it still morning? Is it really okay to drink alcohol early in the morning? Is she too lazy?
Xiao Lin complained slightly.
Suddenly, a strange voice flowed into my head.
[Yes, this idiot goddess has really been too slack lately. Moreover, as the goddess of water, no matter what liquid she drinks, it will turn into water, even high-end bubble wine is no exception. In this case, it’s better to let you fill her up. Twenty times, as long as she is injected twenty times, she will be filled with water. 】Eh?
Xiaolin blinked and turned to look at Aqua and Wiz, only to see their nervous and concerned expressions.
It seems it's not them.
And the voice in my head was deep and magnetic, obviously a male voice.
"Xiao Lin, are you okay?"
"Mr. Kobayashi, are you okay?"
Aqua and Wiz asked with concern.
Xiaolin smiled and shook his head, telling them not to be nervous: "It's just that the magic and mental power are overused, just take a rest. By the way, Wiz, have I been added to the BUFF?"
"Yes. The color of this crystal ball has changed, which means it has been used successfully." Wiz raised the crystal ball glowing with blue light and motioned for him to look at it.
"What about the duration?"
"round-the-clock."
"How to know the BUFF effect?"
"It will be displayed on the crystal ball in an hour."
Although the additional BUFF takes effect immediately, it takes an hour to know the effect, which is a bit tasteless to be honest. Not only is it impossible to control the quality of the effect, there is also the reason for the delay.
As expected of Wiz, the weird magic props displayed in the store never disappoint.
For safety reasons, Xiaolin decided to
Wait for an hour before leaving. After all, you must at least know what the additional BUFF is.
Then the three of them drank tea and chatted.
During this period, Xiaolin suddenly remembered when he saw Wiz drinking tea, and said, "By the way, Wiz, I have a question for you."
Immediately put forward the issues discussed with Sato Kazuma and Keir.
-Why she eats.
"Ah, because I want to ensure that my body is activated." Wiz explained: "There are many ways to transform into a lich. I was able to successfully transform with the help of someone, and the relationship is with a woman, so..."
Ensure activation, different types, and differentiated treatment
Do you actually have them all?
[As we all know, the phenomenon of life is protein, and your body, which happens to be healthy and strong, contains ultra-high-quality protein. If it were up to you...three shots would guarantee her energy for a day's activity. No, the magnificence of her chest seemed to say that she was greedy, and that it might take five shots to do it. 】
Wait, could it be...
To make sure, Xiaolin asked: "Aqua, Wiz, did you hear any sound? It's a certain sound, and it's very familiar."
"No, I didn't hear that at all."
"Me too."
Wiz and Aqua shook their heads in confusion, it seemed that they really didn't know.
No matter how stupid Xiao Lin is, he should have sensed that something was wrong.
This sound is definitely an additional BUFF effect! And if you listen carefully, isn't the bass sound just now his own voice?
No, no way...
Could it be that he was so unlucky that he got DEBUFF?
He sighed helplessly.
Aqua asked doubtfully: "Xiaolin, are you okay? Your expression has been very strange since just now. Is there something wrong with your body? In this case...purify! Heal!"
There was no hesitation and she used magic directly. The goddess still cared about her followers.
It just so happened that Xiao Lin also wanted to try whether this additional effect could be eliminated.
Unfortunately, no.
Aqua's purification is very powerful, and it can reduce even tough enemies to a certain extent. However, now that Xiaolin's additional effect has not been weakened at all, does that mean that it is not a DEBUFF, or maybe it is for some other reason... …
"Xiao Lin, how are you? Are you feeling better?"
"I'm fine, but I may know what my additional effects are."
"What is it?"
"Narration."
As soon as he finished speaking, the name of the additional effect appeared on the crystal ball glowing blue on the table.
——The unorthodox narrator.
