Christopher was seated inside the shop, dejected with a glass of wine in one hand and a spellbook in another.

Tris was loitering behind the counter, while Diwit, Vadima and Osweald were playing cards at a table near the exit, of course the most hardworking was Kurlidandr, although what he worked on wasn't exactly profitable.

It wasn't strange that poker and other card games existed in this world, since there have been too many summoned people over the ages.

"Four of a kind!"

Vadima said as she once more emptied the pot.

"If I didn't know your class was a warrior I would swear it was the infamous and rare gambler class, probably gaining experience each time you won a game depending on the amount you won"

Osweald said disatisfied, as he had lost for the second consequentive time.

"Oh, and here I thought I was playing against a rogue and not the extremely rare crying loser class"

Vadima said not letting him off lightly.

"You think you play well, if my uncle Wil was here you would have even lost your underwear, don't think so highly just because you won two games"

Osweald said in response.

"Oh and do you dare to play again?"

Vadima said while counting her earnings.

Half an hour later Vadima was sitting alone on the table with an empty pot, she had lost every penny to that crafty gnome, he had of course been losing on purpose to swindle her of all that she was worth.

The next day the Gnome was gone from Doldri mountain City as they learned from the gatekeeper.

"By the way, they say Nivava has a new ruler now"

Tris said, trying to open a discussion in the now boring shop, most people only came for a few potions and left in a hurry, not letting Tris even say a goodbye.

"Well It's probably King Dridinal now, right?"

Vadima asked rather depressed since she had lost a month of wages to the fleeing gnome, the same could be said for Diwit whom simply sat there looking at the ceiling as if there was something drawn there.

"Not exactly, they say they now have a Queen and some princess Bloom, a 12 years old girl is the successor for the throne"

Tris said with a smile, she didn't know whom they were, but she was happy that Vadima was wrong.

"Impossible, I don't believe this, how on earth could that little retarded girl and her weakling of a moter take over the throne, even if you said that his highness Tudar took the throne I would more easily believe it, after all he might be an idiot, but he has the support of both the Archmage and the Arcbishop"

Vadima said making Tris suspect that Vadima's identity isn't as simple as she thought it to be, she even imagined that Christopher was some noble prince whom escaped from enslavement, since she had heard that the other successors were admitted into slavery.

"By the way what's master's opinion about it?"

Tris asked trying to bait some information from him.

"Poor Alexxa must be feeling rather bad, by the way what's the fate of the heroes and royalty of Nivava?"

Christopher asked rather curiously, of course his main target was Alexxa, hearing her news would be a refreshing thing.

"Well the heroes are doing quite well, each was given costodity of a royal member to serve as their slaves as they manage a village in the first floor of the dungeon pillar, Acording to the latest Goship hero Christo and heroine Anna are the two most brilliant heroes of the Nivava kingdom, one due to his great leadership and the other due to her great management skills"

Tris said, giving no information on Alexxa whatsoever, other than some general stuff, well that pretty face being her slave wasn't exactly what Christopher anticipated, but it was probably so, as for Christo and Anna, well Christo showed promise since the begining and Anna was like an angry bitch of course she would do better than Alexxa whom was kind and pure.

"By the way master, you have been reading that same book for a month now, please don't tell me that you don't have the "memorization" skill"

Tris said seemingly concerned.

"Non of your business bitch"

Vadima said rather angrily, of course she herself knew that Christopher didn't have the memorization skill, but she thought that seeing Christopher admitting it would be too humilliating for him, maybe even birth a hint of regret and with his already depressed self it could even lead to him to commit suicide, what she was doing was protecting him, right protecting him from that wild bitch.

"I don't think that Memorization would help after all it's not like I'm going to memorize the whole book or something, and even if I wanted to cast a spell why would I even need to memorize it when I can simply open the book and read the spell I want to cast, as for the bonus something it gives to mages, that's also stupid, let me ask you sencerely would you give up on five skills simply to be able to cast one weak spell that might not even be worth your time, after all..."

All they could hear were excuses as the reality was that he hated memorizing stuff by heart.

"If the master wants the skill I just so happen to have a skillbook here, of course I'm willing to give it to you for the price of one kiss"

Tris said as she took out a skillbook.

"Don't need it"

Christopher stated as he continued reading his book, he of course had already bought a pair of glassed from the Dwarves, but they were rather badly made, making it hard to read for too long, thus he had to take them off when not reading.

"Then how about this new spellbook, with spells that you don't yet have, the price is just a single kiss"

Tris said as she licked her lips.

The moment she took over the counter, she had already gathered her hair into a braid and her face wasn't at all ugly, she could even be called pretty in most countries, of course she wasn't some top model, but she was non the less pretty.

"Not interested"

Christopher said, of course the more he evaded her the more she liked to play with him, for Tris this was of course not a game, to her he was like the prince charming from the fairy tales, a knight with shiny armor whom freed her from the dwarven mines, if it was him, she would gladly marry him.

"Then how about this nice magic ring, which can boost your magicality by 20points while wearing it?"

She said, of course she didn't say that the ring's level requirements were level 100 and Christopher was only level 20 at the moment, it wasn't like he hadn't learned any spell, by now he knew by heart the cleaning spell, thus not needing to use the bathroom anymore, he had also learned the five basic missile spells, which in general weren't so different from one another, they had minor changes here and there, but in general it was the same spell, simply modified.

Of course the real reason why he didn't care about the memorization skill was the Altelixirs, he was waiting for Kurlidandr to make enough of his altelixirs to flood the market and then use them for himself to rise in power.

"Help! Come Quickly!"

Shouted Kurlidandr with a rather panicked voice and all the people in the room quickly run towards the alchemy lab in the basement of their shop.

"Gooh, ghooh"

The smoke coming from the basement was rather thick, Christopher tried to cast the wind missile, but to no avail.

At some point a disappointed black dwarf came out of the basement, he was black from soot and they could tell that the news wouldn't be good.

"I have bad and good news, which do you want me to tell you first"

The Dwarf said.

"The bad first"

Christopher said.

"Well we will need to buy a new Alchemy bench and tools"

The Dwarf said, not even looking towards the Basement.

"And the good news?"

Vadima asked curiously.

"I have at last determined the formula for a perfect elixir, well it does have a few defects, but it's mostly perfect"

The Dwarf said with pride.

"And which of the ten did you perfect?"

Christopher asked with an apathetic gaze, as if saying that he wasn't havin any big expectations of him.

"Well I did have a small breakthrough for the stat altelixirs, making the falling stats drop to 0.25, but in general the drop still exists, the one however that I perfected is the erase skill elixir, now I can finaly remove even mutated skills, oh and by the way there are two new altelixirs, one gives you a skillpoint but you will be bedridden for a time if not dead of course and the other increases mentality for the expense of magicality, but since it's new it would be a 1:0.5 ration, like the others"

kurlidandr said, which didn't exactly make christopher happy, after all he didn't have any mutated skills to begin with, but for Kurlidandr it was a rather huge success, he was already stuck with 8 mutated skills and some of which weren't to his liking.

"Can't you just mix the Altelixirs together?"

Christopher asked out of irritation, he of course didn't want to be the guinea pig for the potions, but he didn't want to waste valuable elixirs on others, you can call it greed but this was his character, stingy to the bone.

"Mixing Altelixirs, isn't that too wasteful?"

Kurlidandr asked rather surprised, it wasn't that he didn't want to, he simply calculated that it would be more profitable to sell them seperately to begin with.

"Just do the experiment, I'm sure you have plenty of the failed 1:1 altelixirs, just combine those together to find some new stuff"

Christopher said without thinking as if he was some all-knowing being, feeling rather satisfied with himself, but what he didn't expect was that right in front of them Kurlidandr took two potions out of a case that appeared in front of him and mixed them together.

"Failure, greater failure, wasted potion, acid venom, highly exposive mixture"

He had begun mixing two at a time, but to Christopher's eyes it looked as if he was burning money to the wind.

"Only two quite passable results, this one will Increase physique by 2, but it will cause a stomach ache for a week, the other will raise your mentality by 5, but will cause you to be bedridden, I have also succeeded in making some offensive type potions, corrosive acid, explosives and other stuff we can sell"

Kurlidandr said as he handed the staff to Diwit and the highly explosive stuff to Tris, not trusting the two warriors(Vadima and Diwit) for the job of moving them to the shop.

"By the way Boss/partner, would you mind if we talk about something?"

Kurlidandr said as he shooed the others out.

"We aren't doing so well lately, the debt has already risen to 10000, of course I know that the debt is on you and that you can easily mine things from the stone, but unless you want to be sent to the mine we have to do something, even now I see no way of lifting the debt by the end of this month, even if you are able to dig out gold from the ground"

Kurlidandr said rather apologeticaly, the whole shop was registered on Christopher's name, but Kurlidandr needed materials for his experiments and he couldn't just wait, this was also the reason why the gnome made his escape, he had already gotten a hint on their situation, by the end of the month Christopher would have no DP to pay his employees, thus he would have to sell all the potions and the shop to the bank for under the market price, meaning that he would still be in debt.

"Can't we just give them the daggers staff,shield and helm, that would make around the needed amount"

Christopher said naively, not understanding that Dwarven goods wouldn't be bought for the same price they were being sold, even if he sold them they wouldn't even gain half their price, well in general that would still be at least 20000DP , but even so Kurlidandr didn't know what to say since the daggers that were in his costodity were already missing, the helm, staff and shield were pitch black, even worse the shield was now damaged due to his final experiment.

"Well that won't work, the gnome has stolen the daggers before leaving, the shield had a little accident, as for the others I hope you know the cleaning spell, because they will be needing a lot of cleaning"

He said as he took out the three pitch black items.

"Would you mind passing me the finished Altelixirs"

Christopher said as he took the two final finished products gulping one after another, he felt painful, but it was nothing in contrast with his boiling rage.

"Give me some more, I don't think that's painful enough"

Christopher said and Kurlidandr passed him another two bottles, of course he didn't know that Christopher just a few weeks ago had evolved his toughness skill into the Painbearer skill, allowing him to wistand even more pain and suffering than a regular human.

Christopher begun gulping down stat potions as if they were water, at some moment he vomited, but he still went on drinking the last altelixir that Kurlidandr had given him, Kurlidandr of course had more, but he could tell that Christopher couldn't drink any more.

If you encounter this tale on Amazon, note that it's taken without the author's consent. Report it.

Once Christopher gulped the last potion he fell down on the floor, losing conciousness from the pain.

Unkown time afterwards.

"Is he alright?"

A hazy woman voice asked.

"Well he did gulp down 20potions one after another, I'm even surprised that he's still living, I should have given him the heavier ones"

Kurlidandr said making the two women to glare at him.

"If he dies, I will get two manloving dwarves to use you as target practice"

Tris said, making Kurlidandr freeze for a moment.

"Don't bullshit me, suicide is the path of a true man, even if he asked me for the most heaviest of my potions I will still give them to him"

Kurlidandr said with pride.

"What the fuck are you getting at, do you even know whom you tried to kill?"

Vadima shouted in an uproar as if Christopher was some great personel.

"What so great about it, is he some royalty or something?"

Kurlidandr asked, Tris was even more interested to learn.

"You idiot, he's one of the summoned heroes, if he wanted money all he needed to do was find the dwarven royalty and offer his services, they would probably..."

Vadima begun to explain how they left Nivava and how the stupid goblins ended leeding the carriage into the swamp.

"Well you and this hero are realy stupid, not only did you decide on the goblin country, you even asked the goblins to ride in the daylight, everyone knows that goblins are nocturnal creatures, they could probably barely drive the carriage from exhaustion"

The dwarf said, making Vadima reflect on her own actions, after all it was understandable that Christopher didn't know, he had just came to their world, but She because of her mixed emotions at the time hadn't thought of that, even worse the goblins didn't even stop at their inn to take all their belongings they simply left the Capital as if being hunted.

"Give me one more elixir...one more"

Christopher's faint voice could be heard as he mumbled in his sleep.

Vadima and Tris were glaring at Kurlidandr whom had two new potions in his hands.

"What? it was him whom asked for them"

Kurlidandr said disatisfied.

"I'll go sell the stuff, you stay here and make sure that the crazy dwarf doesn't give him any more of his dangerous potions"

Tris said as she took the damaged shield, black staff and helm and went outside with Diwit.

The next day Tris and Diwit came back, without the stuff, but had a rather happy expression on their faces.

"We made 25000DP, I hope that the master is still alive"

"He's sleeping in his room, the Dwarf is cleaning the basement of smoke and soot"

Vadima said, visibly tired, she hadn't slept all night.

"You can go sleep, I will go look after master"

Tris said with a tender smile.

"He's all yours"

Vadima said as she Yawned once and went to her own room to sleep.

That day the shop stayed closed, but in Christopher's room wild moans could be heard as Tris was riding the sleeping him, not caring about his suffering.

"Yes, deeper, more I want more, master's dick is making me happy!"

Tris shouted making the half asleep Vadima wake up, but she didn't go stop Tris, after all it would be better for him to hook up with Tris than commit suicide again and knowing that he had some gentlemanly behaviours in the past he probably wouldn't leave her with his baby and then go away.

While Vadima was overthinking things Tris was having a rather hard time, although Christopher's tool was erect, it was too thick for her to do without foreplay.

She was trying her best to get herself wet as she did all sorts of perverted stuff.

Of course she did her best to control her own strength, since he was still too weak and contrary to her whom was a level 200 common merchant he was too weak.

Of course if she was a hero or even a talent class then she would have been even higher in levels.

The reason of course for her rise in levels was rather simple, as a merchant she sold her own body to others, meaning she worked as a prostitude for adventurers whom passed by, this gave her experience as she raise the prices for her own self.

Of course she didn't enjoy it and even hated herself, but her dream of leaving the mine and being free once more kept her going.

Before she knew it her skills had begun evolving into perverted and despicable skills whose names I probably shouldn't even state.

Of course if there was one skill she was proud of it was the "This stone is gold" skill, it was a 9th evolution skill from the common merchant's "present merchantise" skill, it gave her the ability to even sell rocks as if they were something special, but most importantly make herself a more presentable prostitude.

Of course after being rejected twice by Christopher she had almost lost her hope of leaving, after all most of the miners were set free the second time, but she hadn't thought that he would simply accept to pay her debts for escorting him on the great lane, the road going to doldri and later the capital City.

"Alexxa..."

The moment she heard him whisper that name she had a bad vibe about it, of course she would later interrogate Vadima for more details, but at the moment she had to make him cum, even if in his mind she was someone else, she didn't care at all.

It took her half an hour before she could happily dismount him, her naked figure leaving the room to fetch some food from downstairs for him and herself.

Passing near Diwit's room she could hear him pounding on his bed, of course she could understand that the big guy had urges too, truthfully he should have gone to the borthel instead of punishing himself, was what she was thinking, after all he was still working in the store, thus earning some DP, in truth however he was useless, if Christopher hadn't wellcomed him to stay she would have given him the boot long ago.

Diwit was weaker than Vadima in fighting since he didn't even know how to use weapons, he couldn't count and calculate and even more so was practically retarded, he didn't even know what his own class was, something that he could see each time he leveled up, since the night they would see their status for stat allocation.

After mouth to mouth feeding Christopher she went to find Kurlidandr, she took a dozen of his altelixirs and went to get themselves some business. Of course she wouldn't let the country take her hero away from her.

"Oh, isn't that the lady whom threatened to turn a few dwarven masterpieces into scrap metal, what brings you back to the bank, wasn't 25000 enough to your liking?"

The Young dwarf banker said cinicaly.

"Oh, you didn't seem to mind when you were repairing and cleaning that shield for free, simply to put it into the vault, but today I came with a few gifts, these altelixirs are a gift by our alchemist to the four heroes of our Dwarven country"

Tris said as she passed the dozen of potions to the banker.

"You can have them identified, later, also if the country wants more, it's 10000DP per potion, so I hope to see you again"

Tris said as she left the potions and left out of the building.

In truth the day before she had gone through numerous banks in the city, trying to find the one that would give her the best price for the items, until she found this bank's clerk, he was a rune mage whom specialized in the Repairing and cleaning runes, something that regular people would laugh about, but since he was a noble himself he didn't really care for those bottomfeeders.

======================================

While Christopher and Tris had their lovey dovey moments, a pair of heroes was also having an rather great affair.

Of the four heroes whom joined the Ecclesia Country, Theodor and Stella were a couple, while Michael and Chris or otherwise known as "Pope" were still trying to get used to their new routine.

Early in the morning they were forced to go to the temple, next came training for their respective classes and lastly they were given free time to themselves.

In Ecclesia there was no sense of crisis, the people simply laughed if someone spoke of the demon king's coming, after all they already had a holy hero whom could pulverise the weak demon king of the 10th floor, what they demanded from the heroes was only their faith to the god Ecclesis, since strength was something they would gain in time.

Michael and Pope were rather frustrated, since both wanted to get stronger soon, but Theodor and Stella didn't seem to care as they passed their days happily as a couple and at the end of the first week they even passed the nights together.

Because they all lived next to each other the two could hear the faint moans coming from the couple's room, making them rather jealous.

You might ask what about the rewards they had been offered, well those would only be given after they converted to the Ecclesis faith, meaning when the Priests found them to be worthy of the holy title and guardian Angel.

Of course one month of careful brainwashing ceremons was enough to make them somewhat believe that Ecclesis exists, they even met him, but believing that he was god, was still a thing to happen.

In truth Theodor was an atheist, he didn't believe in god to begin with, Pope and Michael were rather half baked in their believes and Stella didn't even know what she believed in.

In time they begun to be brainwashed completely, Michael and Pope even found two lovely priestesses whom happily accompanied the on dates, of course there wasn't any intercourse before the wedding.

"Excellent I can now see the spark of faith in your hearts"

The High Priest said as he looked at them in the daily gathering at the temple.

"Today the four of you will gain the title of Holiness, becoming our holy champions"

Of course the title of Holy champion would be granded by the God-King himself, an Immortal existance whom is said to be the child of Ecclesis himself.

In general all the citizens of Ecclesia were handsome and beautiful, they were kind and considerate.

Ecclesia could be considered as a Country of saints, but there was one itchy bitchy probrem.

There was something called the Inquisition, of course they weren't like our medieval inquisition whom burned people on the stake or murdered innocent people and heretics alike.

Ecclesis Inquisition was like the Police in our world, it hunted criminals, illegal immigrants and other scum of the underworld.

Of course there was also the Templars and once more they weren't like our world's templar knights, they were the army of Ecclesia, whom protected the boarders of the country and fought at the frontline against the monsters from the dungeon pillar.

Lastly there were the Priesthood, With three tops, the God-king, the White Arch-Bishop and the Black Arch-Bishop whom were responsible for spreading the faith of Ecclesis and governing the Country.

The Cities,towns and Villages of Ecclesis were focused on a temple, meaning that where a temple of Ecclesis existed a village would be built. The Bishop of the temple would then act like the benevolent governor of the place, the Templars would protect it and the Inquisition would quel all criminal activity.

The same day at Midday, they were summoned to the Palace, a Luxurious White colored Structure that could easily be confused with a temple due to their similar architecture.

Walking on the Bright red carpet the four of the reached the throne room.

This was their first meeting with the God-king, but just at the moment their eyes fell on his self, their legs seemingly lost all strength forcing them to kneel as if in front of a higher being.

"You four shall from today forth be known as the four holy champions of Ecclesia"

A voice very familiar to them echoed, making them remember Ecclesis himself, whom they had already met once when they were summoned.

The moment he announced them as Holy champions, four beams of light fell from the sky, passing through the ceiling and covering them one by one.

The next moment they appeared in the status appointment space, in front of them in their respective face was the guardian angel Edit menu.

They could modify their own guardian angel's looks and even change their stats and select a skill, but the guardian angel's name was fixed as that of their own.

You can immagine a masculine looking angel called Stella or a feminine looking angel called Theodor.

Of course angels have no genitals, thus you don't need to be too shocked it's after all common knowledge.

The four took their sweet time to create their own angels, in the end Michael had Created a Handsome angel whom could even rival the god emperor himself in beauty, Michael must have been a sculptor or something in his past life.

Pope created a rather sexy angel, she might not have genitals, but he still created holes in her body, in places where her genitals should have been, making her seem no different than a regular woman, at the moment he thanked god that he had seen enough porn to be able to do so.

Theodor had created an ugly Bodybuilder type angel, that looked like a terminator with wings.

Stella created a somewhat ugly female angel, it took all her strength and art to make an angel look uglier than herself since the default angel was too beautiful to begin with, as to why it had to be a female angel, well it was in order for her boyfriend to not be jealous of her.

Of course when she saw Theodor's terminator angel and he saw her ugly angel, they both laughed their lungs out.

The other two were too preoccupied with their own works of art, Michael of course was somewhat regretful when Pope demonstrated that he had crafted a pussy and ass hole for his own angel, of course he regreted not knowing it was possible, otherwise he would have created his ideal woman for himself as well.

Pope's demonstration however created not a small disturbance among the bishops and priests present, after all they clearly understood what the two holes in the angel's private locations would be used for.

In a way it could be called blasphemy, but in another it could be called love for god, they couldn't stop chatting, while the God-king whom non could look upon strait could only face-palm himself.

"Ehem, now that you have your guardian angels, I will give you a fief to manage, there are three boarder villages that are close to monster habitats, thus you will be sent to precide over them, if you accomplish your work well, you will become the leaders of the nearby Town"

The God-King said, there was no quota of monsters to kill and no requirements for them to fulfill, other than rule over a small village in the boarders, of course the main point of that was to help them earn some coins for themselves and build some influence for themselves, but there was a deeper meaning to it.

The village management was a test to see their potential, if they were good at ruling, they would be integrated into priesthood, if they were the warrior type they would become templars and if non, they would be integrated into the Inquisition.

Of course Michael and Pope were given their own Villages, while Theodor and Stella were sent to the same village, the major however event was that Theodor and Stella were to be wed, which shook the a little, after all they were only 16 and although marriage at that age wasn't really weird, most would wait a little until they found a steady job or future for themselves.

Of course their wedding became a national holiday, as two holy champions would exchange vows.

The laws of Ecclesia on mariage were similar to our own, meaning that one could only have one wife, of course that was acceptable and respected by our modern age people, the heroes.

Unlike Nivava and the other Countries, Ecclesia was more technologicaly advanced there was steem, electricity and other things that didn't require magic to be used, of course they didn't have bathrooms since they had the cleaning spell, but they did have Saunas, hot springs, swimming pools and bath houses.

Well they even had electricity of the most simple form to light the streets at night, frankly speaking the light bulb, but nothing more advanced, not even the telegraph.

Of course it was understandable since most of the things we use electricity for could be substituted by magic, even the power source that produced electricity was a small rat monster that turned a wheel producing electricity, of course the monster fed on electricity to begin with, thus it was a win win situation, well not exactly since the monsters lived in captivity but that's something for philosophers to debate on, after all half of those beast would 100% die in the wilds to begin with.

The Wedding was glorious, fireworks in the sky, People blessing them with wishes for a healthy and happy marriage and a festival was held in every village,town and city of Ecclesia.

People whom had their weddings at the same day, were even more blessed as all the cost of their weddings were paid by the Country.

The two however whom were the most anxious but also the most happy were Theodor and Stella after all it was rather unique and exotic having your wedding in another world, although they did miss their family members the most at that moment, sitting on their wedding table, seeing only strangers around them and the only two familiar people being two classmates with whom they couldn't really be called friends.
