Re Istode : Things that kitsune girl do in another world - Chapter 177

A day has passed since Ruciel and I repaired our broken relationship.

A few things have changed.  We’re getting closer, she didn’t too much close herself anymore, and her insult lessen. But at the core, although her hostile nature diminished she still hate me.

My struggle to conquer her continues. But, I’m happy when – accidentally – she called me darling. Her shy, flushed face was so cute!

And yes, the effect of my Courtesan skill that always struck me, weakened after we spent a quality night together.

And I will say, she was so delicious when she didn’t resist at all. Spotless white skin, soft and warm body, and her intoxicating scent! I can’t get enough of it!

I get carried away and do her too good. Guilty stabbed my heart when I see her fainted with tears and droll. Now, the Fallen Elf girl was too tired and she decided to sleep for the entire day.

Overdoing something was no good.

Now, there’s something important I have to do today.

At a moment, I along with the others except Ruciel are in the plaza of Suroin village. We, along with dozens of other Shadow Elves, took part in the morning market. We rolled out carpets, arranged our stuff, and we made a stall or some kind of shop.

We are ready to made trades or do barter with the Shadow Elves.

Looking for profit is our goal.

I will say, we, or rather me and the kids are beginners in peddling.

Diana?

Surprisingly, she is accustomed to peddling. She was good at bargaining something because in Uncertainty when she sells her stuff to someone, she is always being extorted or cheated. Didn’t want that unfair treatment, she improved herself and her good at bargaining arose.

I want to do these peddling things myself but, I don’t know the market price in this place and even the stuff we have. Besides that, I didn’t know what kind of stuff in this village is valuable to the outside world.  So, if I become a peddler, I’m not sure we will get any profits.

Well… peddling was not on the list that I have to do while visiting this village. I just wanted a few of Damascus ore to make a spear. However, I’ve already obtained a spear from Dishonesty. So instantly, I don’t have a purpose again.

Peddling? That was a spontaneous idea.

Now, the point of that long monologue was; I’m lazy to do it. So, “I leave the rest to you, Ronove.”

The old woman narrowed her eyes. A moment later, she moved her hands extremely quick and…

Duag!

A Spell, a blue ball hit my forehead!

“Argh!” I wailed and then grabbed my forehead while squatting.

Although I have a high AGI, I couldn’t avoid that Spell. More than that, I feel the pain even though I have level seven of Pain Resistance. Knowing all that, “Aren’t you too cruel? I’m sure the Spell you used just now can kill a Giant Boar easily.”

“You deserve it, young lady. You suddenly threw this problem at me.” Annoyed, Ronove pointed to the stuff on the carpet that I had wanted to sell myself.

My fox’s ears twitched. “It’s not a problem, it’s an opportunity. The items that the Shadow Elves possessed were extremely rare to the people out there. If you do everything well, you will profit a lot.”

Dwag! Dwag!

Loud noises were created when Ronove beat me in the head using her Wand. The old woman’s expression became flat and she became quite frightening.

“Okay, okay, I’m sorry!” I screamed as I protected my head with my hands. “I’m sorry for forcing you to take this job, thank you for doing it even though it is against your wishes.”

Ronove stops swinging her wand. Then she said, “that’s better, and remember, I’m entitled to half of all profits earned from these stuff.”

“I remember it,” I replied then made a strong nod.

Ronove sighed and then shook her head. The day was just started but she looked exhausted.

“Don’t worry, grandma Ronove. I’ll help you,” said Kimi, who puffed out her chest.

On her side, Chloe also puffed out her chest. “I’ll help too!” She said with a vigor that was not less than Kimi’s.

Lastly was Diana, the Flugel raised her hand and said, “I will help too.

“Oh! Aren’t you reliable, different from an irresponsible and lazy fox girl?” Ronove smiled warmly at them.

And yes, the fox girl she meant, “That’s me, right? You’re referring me, right?”

Ronove ignored me, She continued to talk to Kimi and the others.

“In that case, please help me.” Ronove breathed with satisfaction. She then plays her part as a shopkeeper. While Kimi, Chloe, and Diana began looking for customers by offering the stuff with their voice.

“Looks like you guys will be fine.” I nodded. “Then, I go now.”

“Wait,” Ronove said. “You left this matter to us and what do you want to do? Don’t tell me that you want to play around with those Shadow Elves girls.”

“That’s a quite awful but exciting idea but no. I want to see the village chief.”

“Village chief? For what?”

“I need information about something and permission to visit the forbidden forest from him.”

Ronove nodded. “If you get permission, invite me to explore the forbidden forest.”

“Why?”

“Simple, I’m curious and it’s possible, I can get some rare Items there. So, invite me.”

“I’ll try to get permission.”

Ronove nodded. “Good luck.”

Thus, I left Plaza to visit the village chief’s house. It only took me a few minutes to get to the biggest house in the village. A black wooden door stood in front of me and I knocked on it.

Knock! Knock!

A minute or two minutes later, an old Shadow Elf open the door. He greets me with a beaming smile. “Miss Eclaite, welcome. What do you want?”

“Can we talk?”

“Of course, come in.”

Once again, I visited the living room, the place where I went crazy, danced together with the village chief and the other Shadow Elves. I also have bad memories which are I climaxed here but this is not the time to recall it.

After I sat down, I conveyed what I wanted to the village chief.

“Hmm… regarding, information about the place where the Evil God was sealed and permission to explore the forbidden forest, I can’t grant it. ” said the village chief. The old man, observed me while stroking his beard. “Do you know? You made an unreasonable request.”

“I think not, my request makes sense. And for the record, I didn’t say this request because I want it, that’s Dishonesty’s wish,” I explained.

The village chief’s rise one of his eyebrows. Then, he explained with kindness. “You have to understand, the name you just mentioned is not ordinary. The name appears in legends and has a special weight in it. You can’t say it carelessly.”

“I understood and I just remembered, please hear this.” I put the Memories Cube in front of me.

The blue cube glowed after receiving my Mana. Then, a twenty-centimeter-tall hologram of Dishonesty appeared on top of the blue cube. Besides being able to engrave a message directly to the mind, this item can also convey messages in another means.

The village chief’s mouth gaped.

Hologram Dishonesty moved and said, “village chief of Suroin, I apologize for this sudden meeting. My time was limited so I will just straight to the point, I want you to tell Eclaite the place where the Evil God of Reverse is sealed because she has a mission to destroy the soul of Evil Go. And also, help her as much as you can. Of course, you will get rewarded according to your hard work. I’ll visit you in two days.”

The message stopped there and the hologram of Dishonesty disappeared. The gawking village chief suddenly prostrated himself seconds after his consciousness returned.

“I’m sorry for being disrespectful, Miss Eclaite,” he said with fear.

My fox’s tail made a strong swing when I saw his quite surprising change in attitude. A friendly old man turns into a timid old man. That’s interesting but…

“Raise your head, village chief. I didn’t come to hear your apology. I want to hear the place where the Evil God of Reverse sealed.”

“Well then,” said the village chief after he sat down. “Evil God of Reverse was sealed on the inside of strange ruins, in a part of Wistras Grand Forest called the Unnatural Woods.”

“Empress Dishonesty give you her approval and a mission but that’s not enough. Our warrior on the border will not let you into the Unnatural Woods or Forbidden Forest. Miss Eclaite, you need a permit and approval from the Elders of Shadow Elves.”

“Luckily for you, our annual meeting or the Lunar Festival will be held in a week. The Elders will gather in one place and that becomes your chance to see them and ask for their approval. ”

“I will take you to the Lunar Festival but I’m sorry, I can’t accompany you to see the Elder. My status as a village chief didn’t hold any weight.”

I nodded and said, “thank you village chief. Then, to obtain the Elders’ approval, what do I have to do exactly?”

“A fight. You have to prove that you are strong by entering Lunar Warrior Tournament and winning a top rank. You should get a rank of five or above. Hence, the Elders will listen to your request. And remember, they will not listen to anyone weak. In this scenario, getting an audience was a quite impossible task.”

“Once again, thank you. And when it comes to fighting, I’ll do it with pleasure!”
