Good morning Evo-chan.
Good morning mister Octopus.
Ugh. Don’t call me that!
Pffffffffffffft Yeah I won’t mr. OCTOPUS! Hahahahahahahahahahahahah!
If you are wondering what’s this about …It’s because yesterday when me and Titania were taking a bath I started to use my tentacles. And in the middle of it drunk on the pleasure I told Titania to call me Mr. Octopus.
Let’s drop the subject.
If you say so. Mr. Octopus.
Ugh. I-If I remember correctly then I have 20 stat points, add them to strength.
Done. And I have some news to you! The evolution system got an update! Now you can choose to be a hero or a villain! Basically it just adds a bonus exp for leveling up, like the hero gets bonus heroism exp and a villain gets villainy exp. So which one you chose?
Wait I am a demon to some extent right? Why I can choose a hero?
It’s just decided to not discriminate.
I see. As I don’t want to become like Hell B*y I chose villain!
Done!
“Good morning darling.” (Titania)
“Good morning Titania.”
Getting up from the bed I decided to look at the basement. As yesterday we were so occupied that I completely forgot about that. As for Titania after she used polymorph she went down to the kitchen to make some breakfast.
As I got down to the basement, all I could say…
“HOLY SHIT!”
Now previous owner of the house was really sick in the head. Basement was filled with all kinds of torturing devices! There was Judas cradle, The Rack, Pear of Anguish, Lead Sprinkler, Thumbscrew, Tongue Tearer, The Chair of Torture, Breast Ripper, Spanish Donkey (and not the one that is used in S&M play) he even had a Brazen Bull!
“HOLY MACKEREL IS THAT AN IRON MAIDEN!!!”
The owner of this house was just sick! Let’s leave just Thumb Screw, Lead Sprinkler, The Chair of Torture, The Rack and the Iron Maiden. Everything else will be sold.
Now let’s have some breakfast.
While having a breakfast I informed Titania about my plans for today. She decided to stay at home.
After breakfast I left the house.
So let’s do some shopping!
What’s on the list?
This story has been stolen from Royal Road. If you read it on Amazon, please report it
Before that I wanted to ask you, are there some kind of crafting skills?
Yes there is. But you can’t buy them just like a weapon mastery skills.
So how can I acquire them?
Just do some crafting and you will get them, weapon mastery skills are the same.
Then that’s easy! Especially sword mastery as in my previous world I did some sword practice.
Then the list of items is decided!
Visiting some shops I bought:
Leathering tools;
Some tools to work with stone and wood;
Sewing tools and material;
Enchanting tools and ink;
Alchemy tools, some plants and other ingredients.
Then what’s left is the book store.
And I am standing just in front of it.
Entering the store I called for the vendor.
“How may I help you?” (vendor)
“Yes. I’m looking to buy some books. Mostly on alchemy and enchanting. Then some monster and plant encyclopedias, anatomy books and maybe some history books.”
“You sure like to read.” (vendor)
With those words he started to collect books. And soon enough in front of me was a pile of 14 books.
The books were: Alchemy for beginners; Alchemy recipes(a thin book of publicly known recipes); Enchanting from A to Z; Worlds monsters, from tome 1 -3; Plant lover’s guide tome 1-5; Monster anatomy (a bigass book); Eastern continents known history; Western continents known history.
“All together will be 15 gold coins.” (vendor)
Isn’t it a little too high for a price?
No. In this world all the books are hand written, as the technological progress is pretty much at the level of medieval in your world.
I know that already but to me this price compared to previous world is a little too high. Haah well I’ll buy them anyway.
I placed coins in vendors hand and took all the books in my inventory.
“That’s some strange magic you have there.” (vendor)
“It sure is.”
With those words I left the store to return home.
When I was not far from home I saw a pretty disturbing sight. In a small alley 4 humans were assaulting a fox girl.
“You filth!” (human #1)
“No! Please stop!” (fox girl)
“Haha! Take this!” (human #2)
“Oi! Don’t hit her head! I want her to be conscious when I cut of her tail.” (human #3)
“Heh. Let’s sell her to slave trader afterwards.” (human #4)
Even in this world that kind of things happen.
Unsheathing my swords I moved in direction of that alley.
