They were shown to a large living room where sat a young woman with blond hair that was put up in a bun with hair jewelry. She was wearing a long long-sleeved purple dress, pale skin, blue eyes, and was eating cake and drinking tea.

When they got to her, she looked at Lily and said, "Take a seat."

They sat down and Lily looked at the woman curiously because she thought it was another tailor and she happened to need crafting books.

"I saw you were interested in books that no one wants to touch." Ava said, smiling at her.

“They are all useful to me.” Lily replied.

"You can quickly be overlooked even if you are useful, exactly like the skill books." Ava said.

"I totally agree." Lily said.

“Are you interested in being a chanter?” Ava asked.

Lily thought the woman had checked her stats and seen that she was an assassin, but it didn't seem like that, and the chanter had all sorts of incredible buffs that she could use.

"I'm very interested in that." she said.

When Ava heard her answer she took out 2 white books, a white whistle, and a large white cardboard box on the table.

Congratulations. You have become Lady Ava's apprentice. You have now unlocked the Chanter class and can unlock the Bard class.

Do you want to unlock it now?

Lily answered yes immediately in excitement.

You have received the title Priesthood and Lady Ava's Apprentice

"Thank you very much my lady." she said standing up and bowing nicely to her.

Ava smiled and said, "If you need help you can always come to me otherwise you can ask for Esther."

They said their goodbyes nicely but as they were about to leave Lily felt bad that she couldn't give anything to Ava but suddenly thought of her system.

Was it possible to give something from the system to a deity.

"System is there something I can give her in return." she asked.

“This item.” answered the system and something flashed in front of her:

Goddess Hygeia's Dress.

She took out the dress and gave it to Ava, saying, "I have nothing to give but this dress as a thank you."

Stolen content warning: this tale belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences elsewhere.

When Ava saw the dress, she was surprised and accepted it immediately, saying, “It's beautiful. Here, take this in return.” and gave her a large light brown wicker basket with a hanging in which there were 3 large ostrich eggs which lay on a red pillow surrounded by grass. One was red, the second was green and the third was white.

Lily took the basket into her inventory and looked forward to checking it out later.

"It's beast eggs that will be useful to you in the future. Take good care of them.” Ava said.

Lily knew now that if she flattered herself with things from the system when she met people, she could get all sorts of things from them. She had only gotten these eggs because she had given her that dress and it was clear that it had a certain value to her.

"Thank you very much my lady. I promise not to disappoint you.” she said bowing to her and they left the library.

They flew back to Sanszhin and even though the portal took 1bil of gold this time she didn't feel cheated. She now had flames that she could use to forge things in the blacksmith. The problem was just materials to make things.

As they stood at the head of the capital of Sanszhin she looked around.

"How do I craft things?" she asked Fergus.

"You buy materials from the broker." he answered immediately.

Lily suddenly felt something heavy squeeze around her heart and held onto her ribcage.

Seeing her reaction, Fergus said, "You can borrow it from me and give it back later."

She lit up and looked like a whole new person when she heard him.

She was so ecstatic and happy that she hugged him and said, “Thank you so much my incredible slave. I will pay you back more than 10x double.” and gave him a kiss on the left cheek.

Fergus scratched his nose and didn't know how to react but when she mentioned slave he thought of their contract.

"You must order something again today and it must not be the same as yesterday." he said.

Lily giggled and said, “I order you to pay for my VIP.”

You have ordered your servant. If he fails, he will be punished by the system. Countdown 24h.

It would be cool to use it against strangers, but only weak people would lose and become slaves and they were all poor otherwise she could use it against them. Unfortunately, Fergus was not normal when he was in the top 5 in their guild.

They arrived at a black square building which had two large glass windows on either side of the entrance. Broker was written in big bold letters, so it was easy to notice. To the right of the entrance stood a red stone statue of a Nine-tailed fox.

Fergus gave her gold, and she went to it and touched it:

Want to buy VIP? Costs 999+ kkk

She answered yes and when she heard the sound of gold leaving her, she gritted her teeth. Now she just hoped she could make a lot of gold by making weapons and clothes.

She looked at Fergus who said, "I'll stay out here with Violet and Sapphire as only VIPs can go in there."

She nodded and went inside. It was a large hall and there were four corners where 10 people stood at a counter. There were a lot of people in here and it looked lively.

She had an idea that they were linked to the black market and people only came here to buy materials. She noticed there were most women here and guessed they were Cooking class or Alchemy. She went to the nearest counter on the right and saw that there was a long row of black square boxes hanging on the wall. She saw a woman walk over to one of the boxes and was reminded of a ticket box in a cinema. In that case, it meant that this was where you had to buy things.

She went to box no. 1 and held her hand on it and to her surprise an interface appeared which was divided into categories on the right and on the left, there were square rooms with various things. Prices were cheap for materials, but potions and weapons were expensive. There were crafting scrolls, but they all looked boring and if Maya said no one used the Tailor class anymore it meant no one bought what these crafting scrolls produced.

It was much cheaper for her to find them in monster drops since they were rarer, and the strongest bosses always dropped them.

She chose not to buy anything and went outside to the others and asked Fergus, "Where do you find the best Tailor scrolls?"

“You know the answer. Only the rarest bosses.” replied Fergus.
