As Lily walked around the city, she specifically looked for Dancing Dragons as she didn't have the location on it but only knew there was a base here. She should have asked William about it, but she had already caused trouble for his guild by using Fergus' name in her job posting so she didn't dare ask him now. She had pulled her hood over her head and hoped no one noticed her even though she wasn't wearing a mask. It suddenly dawned on her that she had no idea where she was going.
She looked at Jun De who walked to her left and asked, “Help me find a place that sells masks.”
"Okay. Just follow me.” he replied, and she held his mane and let him lead the way.
She knew that animals had an excellent sense of direction that was built into them naturally and she didn't want to ask Kenta since he had already helped her many times.
She hated being dependent on others and always tried to do things herself because that's how she was raised. She was now in the future without any family member, and it was lonely, and she missed her sister and her parents. She now knew that her sister was not alive, and still had no idea what had happened to her mother. When she had time, she would either ask Lu or Cyrene for help. Since Cyrene had a crystal ball there was probably some witch in her too, so it was probably better to ask her since she was her personal disciple. She was sure that the disgusting man who had kept them captive for all those years was still alive now and when she had time, she would also find him and take revenge.
Suddenly something dawned on her and her heart beat faster and stopped.
What if her mother is still alive now but still trapped by that man?
He had kept her because she was a real priestess and all her predictions about the future had come true. He had used her to win all his gambles and that way he had become insanely rich.
Jun De who had noticed her stop looked at her and asked, “What's wrong?”
Lily's hands were suddenly sweating, and her head was pounding so loud she could hear it. Kenta, who was flying to her right, had also noticed her reaction and looked at her.
"You look like someone who’s about to shit his pants. What’s wrong?" he asked curiously.
Lily wanted to visit Cyrene now and find out if her mother and that man were alive either together or separately. She took some deep breaths and tried to relax her body. Her last revenge had gotten her blacklisted from Amenale and a bounty on her head and she didn't know yet if that man was already in a big guild, but it wouldn't surprise her. People over the age of 40 could not be blessed by Hestia but that man had money to buy himself anything in the world, so he was definitely alive now and sitting and eating while surrounded by beautiful women whom he treated as slaves.
“I have a prey I need to hunt, but that will have to wait. Just keep going Jun De.” she replied looking at him.
Jun De started walking again and Kenta narrowed his eyes, still looking at her.
“I take my words back. You look like a volcano about to erupt. I’ve never seen you so angry before.” he said.
"We all have a past and I’m no exception." Lily said, sighing.
"You must try to control your temper." the system said suddenly.
Stolen content alert: this content belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences.
She was surprised because it wasn't like her system to give her that kind of advice. Was it because she had unlocked several Hidden classes that it now sounded more like a human and not a robot.
"What do you mean?" she asked.
“I'm just giving you good advice. When we feel that you are angry, it can have an impact on your skills .” replied the system.
Lily was confused and didn't know what it meant and asked, "Can you elaborate?"
"Unfortunately, since the other system is also listening." replied the system.
She now knew that there was a good and possibly an evil system and the voice she communicated with was possibly the good one.
Why on earth did she have two systems and why was she trapped in this body?
If a god could resurrect them and a soul lord could give souls back did that mean her real body was somewhere else and where and was it possible to find it?
It was her real face and body, except that the breasts were quite large, but everything else looked exactly like her. She had a birthmark on the right side of her chin and two along her neck and she also had them now, so it must have meant that she was actually in her own body but with an extension. She still had pale skin and her long hair down to her bum, but she had two small white minotaur horns on either side of her forehead which were real because she could feel them when she touched them.
She had been busy making a base and building a home, but it suddenly dawned on her that she knew nothing about her own life in the new world.
Did she still have living family members?
If so, where did they live now?
Did they suffer or were they well and treated well?
"Here it is." Jun De said suddenly, and he stopped.
Lily looked around and saw to her right a small green antique shop which had a long wooden table outside with vases, books and all kinds of cutlery lying out front. It looked like a thrift store but she trusted Jun De.
She looked at him and said, “Thank you. Wait here." and went inside.There were no masks outside the shop so if he hadn't confirmed it was the right place, she wouldn't be able to find it. The shop was small and there was an old man sitting at a small table on the left who was writing something down in a book with a white quill.
She looked around but could not see masks and went up to him and said, “Greetings. Do you have masks to sell?”
"Unfortunately, I don't have any masks that you can use." he replied without looking up at her.
Lily got curious and asked, “Why can't I use them?”
"You are not a Flow Master and are therefore not compatible with my masks." he answered.
When Lily heard Flow Master, she was relieved and said, “I happened to unlock Flow Master recently. My companion can confirm that.”
The man stopped writing and looked up at her in surprise, studying her from head to toe. He stroked his dark mustache and blinked a few times.
"Interesting." He said looking outside to see Jun De standing by the window.
He stood up and said, “Wait here.” and went behind the counter and into a small room.
A moment later he came back with a small white box that looked like a jewelry box.
He handed her the box and said, "Take a look and see if you like them."
Lily was confused because she doubted there was a mask hidden in the box unless it was a Jack-In-The-Box ready to attack her when she opened it. She accepted the box and carefully opened the lid and to her surprise saw a pair of beautiful shiny small white pearl earrings. It looked like the ones she had from Hawaii and suddenly felt nostalgic.
"They are beautiful, but I need masks." she said looking at him.
“It can hide your appearance. You just have to imagine how you want to look.” he explained.
Wow, Lily got excited when she heard that but when she was about to pay he said, "Take it as a gift for unlocking Flow Master since you are the first in human history."
"T-Thank you so much but I feel bad just taking them for free." Lily said, surprised.
"In that case, you can buy these masks." he said, taking out a large square green wooden box from under the counter.
Lily bought the masks without looking at them and bid him a nice goodbye.
When she got outside, she called Fergus and asked for the location of their guild, and he sent her a location right away.
Shortly after, she stood at a large white building that resembled a small embassy and went inside.
You have entered the Guild Dancing Dragons.
She saw a white dragon statue to the left of the entrance and went and put some black cards into her inventory. She did not want to donate separate gold as she now had transport and she was not interested in the other benefits of guild points.
