Chapter 9 - Emily's Mission

Emily is back!

When we got back inside her house, she took me to her working room where she kept all the stuff she used to make potions, the room was behind one of those side doors (and it was messy as hell). We sat and she started to explain:

Rou – You said you wanted learn tailoring right? It’s not my best craft but I think I can teach it to you. Before you start using your telekinesis to do it you have to use your hands to learn it.

Emily – I don’t’ mind, but I’m not exactly dexterous.

Rou – don’t worry, it’s just so you can get the skill.

After she said that she got up and walked to a pile of stuff in a corner. Standing there with a troubled face she looked at me and said:

Can’t you do your thing and pull the box from this pile for me?

Emily – Sure. One second.

Using my field I found the box and took it from the pile and handed it to her.

Rou – Don’t give it to me, take it. You’re going to need to use what’s inside of it. There’s a sewing needle and thread in that box that you’re going to need to make a simple pouch to learn the tailoring skill.

Emily – What about the material to make it?

Rou – You already got some. Use those green pieces of cloth I found on you.

Emily – I’m not going to ask why you have been through my stuff…

Rou – Good…

As she said that she took some clothes, cleaned a table near us and told me to stand up and look at what she did. Taking the materials needed to sew it from the pockets in her dress she draw a simple circle in the cloth, cut it and using a thick tread she sewed the lace on it and it was done, quick and simple. I repeated the same process after I put together four of the bandanas, but my pouch turned out sort of oval and the lace wasn’t properly spaced and some of those spaces where simply too big and left a big opening,but it did the job.

 You have learned the tailoring skill

Emily – Rou, I’m done.

Rou – With that piece of crap?

Emily – Yes, it isn’t the best of works, but apparently it was enough.

Rou – Let me see that.

Theft Proof pouchQuality:CommonSize:SmallA very poorly made pouch from a beginner tailor. It has an imperfect shape and is full of openings, but since it’s made from bandits bandanas the owner will always be safe from theft. Because which bandit is stupid enough to attack someone with a pouch made of their own tokens?

Rou says while laughing – Oh my god girl, you never cease to surprise me! Take a look at it yourself and you will also understand why it worked out fine.

So I did, and blushing I said:

That’s embarrassing. I don’t people to know that I’ve killed a bunch of bandits and thinking that I’m a sadistic bitch who walks around showing what I have done to them.

Rou – Then I’ll keep it. It’s a nice pouch to keep my drinking money.

Emily – Feel free to keep it to yourself.

Rou – And I will. But, now that you have the skill, make something with that telekinesis of your, I’m curious about what you’re going to do with it.

She said that and gave another piece of cloth from the pile of things. But it was too small for what I had in mind so I asked her for a bigger piece and she gave it to me. So I started working, in the day I had died I thought about what I would I do for myself once I got the skill so I decided on a hood and a dress and looked over the internet how to do it. I already had a hood now, so I only had to make a dress.

My plan was actually simple, I would use the system help, the one that guides inexperienced people on their jobs. I turned on the outlines option and when I thought about doing a dress the outlines I had to fallow showed up on the clothes and using my telekinesis I simply controlled everything I had to use and commanded it to follow them.

You have completed your quest and became a witchWhile changing class it has been detected that you used dark magic from the mind branch and it has been set as your choice of magic.

Nice, and here is the result of my tailoring

Outstanding Silk dressQuality:RareDurability:60 / 60An outstanding work from a beginner tailor made from the purest silk. It feats perfectly anyone who wears it and its pieces were sewed together so perfectly that they became invisible.Magic Resistance:10 +5 (from perfect sewing)Intelligence +4, Wisdom +3

Emily – What the fuck Rou, you gave me pure silk do to my first work? What if I messed up?

Rou – I knew you wouldn’t, I told you before, we witches are very capable in our crafts, now let me see the results.

So I gave the dress for her to inspect and she said while giving me more materials and emitting a greedy aura.

Rou – Now, to thank me for teaching you tailoring and giving you a class, you’re going to make a copy of what I’m wearing with this. – And she gave me more materials.

The author's tale has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon.

Emily – You know I can’t work with high level materials right?

Rou – Yes, that’s why I’m only asking you to make me new everyday clothes. For my actual fighting clothes you’re going to have to come back when you reach at least advanced.

Emily – How strong are you?

Rou – That doesn’t concern you. Start working now, I’m going out to grab some herbs for my alchemy and when I come back I want to see only the clothes you made in that table and not a single trace of you presence, you get it?

Emily – Already trying to get rid of me?

Rou – Yes! I don’t want the bandits coming to my house after you, blood stains are really hard to remove from wood!

Emily – What do you mean by bandits coming after me?

Rou – Now that you’ve killed one of them you have three options, you run as fast as you can from here, you die by their hands or… You could get rid of them.

With that, she left and when outside she screamed:

When you do get rid of them, take the bandanas to the adventurer’s guild to get some extra money.

While laughing to myself I finally noticed why the test to become a witch was having fun doing what you want when you want.

I quickly made the clothes she asked me to do and put them on the table, I also used some left overs to make me some slippers and, before I left for the city, I used her kitchen to make me something to eat. Hunger is a real issue when you are having so much fun and time pass faster than the speed of light.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When I got back to the city, the first thing I did was going back to the adventurer’s guild to see if there were any bounty hunts on the green bandana bandits. When I got there I found the same attendant as from the first time logged in Royal Road, so I said to him:

It has been only a weak, do you still remember me?

Attendant – No, I’ve never seen such a shady old lady entering this building before.

As he says that I remove my hood and say in a high pitched voice:

First you say that I’m not to be trusted because I’m a demon, now you insult me by calling a shady old lady? I’m not even old!

Attendant – Ooooh, I remember you now. You’re that demon girl that failed to seduce me. How you been doing?

Emily – I’ve been doing fine…

Attendant – Bob. My name is Bob.

Emily – Right, Bob. Anyway, Bob, I’ve come here to know if you got any quests to get rid of some bandits here in the city.

Bob – In fact, there is a quest to kill some bandits that have been robbing people in the city, but you’re too weak to take it.

Emily – My lvl is too low for it?

Bob – Yep, go level up a bit and come back later, it’s not like someone is going to complete this quest before you, after all, adventurer’s don’t really care about helping the city, all they care about is killing monster and going away to place with even stronger monsters.

Emily – Okay. And by the way, once I deal with them, I’m going to help this city.

Bob – Right! A demon helping the city. I bet they took something from you and you only want revenge.

Emily – Maybe you’re right Bob, maybe not, but I’m not going to tell you.

And with that I left. So where do I start? I didn’t want to be one of those players that level up too quickly and become weak for not leveling their skills, but I couldn’t exactly train with the bandits going after me…

I knew what to do! When I first encountered them, they called Lucy old hag but with a tone of fear in their voice, I’ll probably be safe there. Back to the library to get train it is then.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When I got the library, since it was night it was already closed, but using my telekinesis I unlocked the door and got in

You have gained the ability Lock picking

Damn, I fell like a thief now… Oh well, at least it’s a useful skill.

Inside the library I went looking for Lucy but couldn’t find her. Then I felt a dreadful presence and started to feel myself getting weaker, feverish and losing my breath.

Lucy – Emily! That’s you? What are you doing back here, and how did you got in?

Immediately I felt better and while coughing I said:

Nice to see you too Lucy. Next time ask first, curse later. Okay?

Lucy – Since you already know about my powers it means you’re also a witch… How did you proved you could have fun to Rouge?

Emily – Before I knew who she was, I met her in a tavern and we drank together the whole night, unfortunately I don’t remember what I did so I can’t tell you the details.

Lucy – Okay. But why did you come back?

Emily – I need to train but since there are bandits looking for me this is the only safe place I could think of.

Lucy – I heard about it from Tommy, the delivery boy. A pale demon lady killing a group of bandits without even lifting a hand. I knew it was you the moment he told me. You can use the library, but not now, it’s late. Get some sleep and start tomorrow okay.

Emily – Sure. Where am i going to sleep.

Lucy – There’s an empty room next to mine. Do you still remember where it is?

Emily – Yes, I do.

With that she left and I went after her, but only after I had picked as many books I could carry with my telekinesis.

Oh boy… It’s going to take some time before I finish reading everything in this library

And sighing, I closed the door from my room.
