"Hmmm? Looks like I finally received my first task."(Jeff)
When I woke up I was surprised by the notification. I immediately opened it's content.
Apostle Task
Kill Augusto Dergun.
Deadline: None
So this is my first task I thought that it would be different. I mean I will kill him anyway even if I didn't receive the task. Well, looks like I'll get more benefits in killing Augusto. The problem is I haven't made any accurate plan yet.
Since I was able to woke up early I decided to exercise my body. I also went outside to jog around the city and looked for the place that teaches horsemanship. I was able to found one and remembered the location so I can get there later. I took my meal immediately and went straight to the the horse selling place.
They actually just don't sell horses but also different creatures like the wolves and even an Earth Dragon which are also mountable. For teaching >Riding< it costs 5 silvers per 3 hours.
>Riding< is the skill that let's you mount and control animals as a use of transportation, if you raise the skill you'll be able to ride different kinds of creatures. The most basic way to get the skill was by riding horses. This skill is not just limited to land creatures but also flying types like Wyverns. Riding doesn't let you control the minds of the animals you can only use it for controlling their movements, so the creature you'll be riding must be trained. You'll need to have Job Class Beast Tamer and use the >Taming< to make the creatures you have to fight for you.
I entered the shop and saw the different variety of magic beasts, I wanna try riding an Earth Dragon but to ride it you need to have ">Riding VII<". That's why I'll give up for now.
"Excuse me."(Jeff)
"Oh welcome. Are you here to buy some mounts?"(Shopkeeper)
I was greeted by the old Shopkeeper. He had business-like look on his face when he saw me.
"I would like to learn >Riding<. If possible I want to learn it now."(Jeff)
"So you're here to learn >Riding<, eh. It costs 5 silvers per 3 hours. You can start now if you want to."(Shopkeeper)
"Then I would like 6 hours of training."(Jeff)
I took 10 silvers from my magic bag and gave it to the Shopkeeper. He took the money and put in his pocket.
"Well then, follow me."(Shopkeeper)
The Shopkeeper gestured me to follow him. We went inside the building and went towards a field.
The field was around 150 meters wide, there are some people riding horses, I presumed that they're also learning >Riding<.
"Hey Jer, this kid wants to learn >Riding<, so go and teach him. His training time is 6 hours."(Shopkeeper)
"Got it boss."(Jer)
Jer bowed to the Shopkeeper and then stared at me.
"Okay kid, let's get a horse that you can ride with."(Jer)
I followed Jer into the stables. He picked a horse and brought it out outside the field. He putted the saddle in the horse's back and finished the preparation.
"Now ride into the horse's back."(Jer)
I jumped at the back of horse as I was told to. Jer held the horse as I sat on the horse.
"Okay now, let's begin our lesson."(Jer)
Jer thought me the ways of riding the horse, he gave me the pointers and advice to help me understand. Since I have read horsemanship back then I was able to understand. I failed a couple times along the way but Jer assisted me and throughly teached me. Thanks to him I was able to learn >Riding I< after 4 hours. Since I had remaining to 2 hours, I rode around the field trying to grasp the feeling of what I learned. I was able to learn it quickly thanks to Jer, he's a good teacher.
After 2 hours has passed I jumped off the horse and thanked Jer. It was already noon when I got out so I went to the merchants to sell some of the items I have.
"Hmmm... let's see. You have 116 iron swords, 75 iron daggers, 30 iron axes, 50 iron spears, 95 leather armors, 20 iron armors, some boots and gloves also some clothings. Since some of them have are already damaged it's around..."
The merchant wrote the items I selled and began to calculate the price. All of them were the items I thought were useless to me, but I kept some as a spare. If you're wondering how they fitted in my magic bag, it's because I putted some of the magic bags inside a magic bag so that all of them would fit. Confusing right? I mostly took some iron daggers so that I can use them as a throwing weapon.
"All of it will be 33 gold and 40 silvers, what do you think?"(Merchant)
"Hmmm... It sounds all right to me. Deal."(Jeff)
I accepted the price and the merchant gave me the money. I actually want to sell the magic bags I have to buy a new one with a bigger storage. I guess I'll also buy one later.
I went towards the clothing center as I planned. There are different types of clothing store, some store sells cheap ones, some have moderate prices and then there's the high class one where the nobles mostly buys. When I looked at the high class clothing shop I saw all the expensive clothings, that were frilly and some had expensive stones as a design. But I'm not gonna go there. I don't really need to worry about money since I have 233 golds now. So I'll buy clothes at the moderate priced shop.
"Welcome sir. Please take a look."(Shopkeeper)
A girl greeted me politely when I entered the shop I looked at all the clothes display and started pick some clothes. I picked 10 casual clothings and some underwears, the underwear here is actually shorts by the way. I also bought a hooded clothing and some shoes. I checked all their size and wore them all in the fitting room to confirm if it fits. After I finished picking them I went to the cashier and brought all the clothes I picked.
"All of will 12 gold coins and 50 silvers"(Shopkeeper)
I gave the money then stored the clothes in my magic bag.
I went to my next destination, the Magic Shop. I went to the Magic Shop where I bought the Spell Books. When I entered the store I saw the same Shopkeeper last time.
"Oh, it's you kid. So what do you want today?"(Shopkeeper)
"I want to buy a Magic Bag."(Jeff)
"Magic Bag? Let's see I'm currently selling 3 types. First is the the magic bag that has storage size of 10 meters wide, then there's also a 50 meters wide and the 100 meter wide.
The first magic bag must the magic bag I currently have which also has a 10 meters wide storage, I currenly have 3 of them.
"Oh by the way you can choose the design for the magic bags, there's a wallet, pouch and backpack design."(Shopkeeper)
"Then I would like a 100 meter wide with a pouch design if possible the ones that can be attach to a belt."(Jeff)
"Okay, I have some of that."(Shopkeeper)
The shopkeeper went into her storage room and brought the magic bag. She brought me a rectangualar pouch that has metals at the back which is used to attach to a belt.
"This thing costs 50 gold coins."(Shopkeeper)
Wow that's very expensive. It's two times the price of my dagger. Well I'll need it anyway.
"I'll buy it."(Jeff)
I wanted to sell the magic bags that I had but I thought that they may become useful someday so I won't sell them. Now I have 180 gold coins and some silvers remained in my pocket.
I took the magic bag and immediately attached to my belt.
Now let's go back to the inn.
-
I went to the inn and ate my dinner. My shopping sure took a lot of time. I didn't get to eat any food in the afternoon today. So I ate with more portion than usual. And then I took a bath and changed my clothes.
I lazily laid on the bed and pondered in my thoughts.
*Sigh... i didn't get any ideas today...
-
After I finish exercising I would go straight to the hot springs to take a bath. It sure is a bliss.
I went to the dining room and as usual I took my breakfast. But Ruka who usually serves my food was not here, my food was served by one of the workers.
After finishing my food I went and ask Nika.
"Miss Nika, where's Ruka?"(Jeff)
"Today is Ruka's day off, you see. She said that she's participating in a play today. I think she's still here."(Nika)
"Hey, are you looking for me?"(Ruka)
When I turned around I saw Ruka who's now wearing a simple dress instead of the usual working outfit.
"Say, Jeff. Want to see me in the play? You aren't busy, right?"(Ruka)
"No, not really."(Jeff)
"Then wanna watch the play? I'll show you my superb acting skill!"(Ruka)
Ruka stared at me with a cheerful confident smile.
"I don't have plans today so I'll go."(Jeff)
"Great! Now let's go!"(Ruka)
Ruka dragged my hand and we went on our way. Is she not even embarassed holding my hands. As walk in the city I saw multiple people looking at us, I even heard someone say, "Ahh, youth...". Yep, I definitely saw that coming.
"Hey Ruka... could you let go of my hand? Some might misunderstand us as a couple. It will be bad if some rumor starts spreading."(Jeff)
"What are you talking about? It's normal for friends to hold hands, you know."(Ruka)
Ruka didn't even got flustered, she even said that with a straight face.
I gave up and just followed Ruka. And after we entered a building that had a big sign that reads, "Theater". Just like the old time theater, huh.
"Take a seat wherever you want."(Ruka)
Inside the building was a large stage that had a curtains blocking it. There were multiple chairs that was facing the stage. I went to the front to have good view. There were already other people who have arrived when I entered. I wasn't asked to pay for the ticket since I was a guest of Ruka. She must have a big role in the stage.
I sat on the chair as I look at the pamphlet that was given to me when I entered. It's the usual pamphlet that was given in plays. The title of today's play was "The Moonlight Princess and the Red Prince". It was a story I was quite familliar with. Well it's because I have read it the other day. It was something about a lonely princess that was cursed of eternal loneliness but that curse was removed by the prince. It was something like from a fairytale but the novel was quite decent if I must say.
Unauthorized content usage: if you discover this narrative on Amazon, report the violation.
"Hmmm... So Ruka is the Moonlight Princess?"(Jeff)
I made a guess from my mind on what Ruka' role would be. Well she would definitely fit for the role with her beauty.
After a few minutes stage's curtain began to open. Music started to play by the orchestra. The sound of beautiful melody started to cover the whole theater. A beatiful woman wearing a gorgeous outfit covered with a flower designs, appeared in the stage. She must be the Moonlight Princess. The women started to say lines in a poetic way. Her acting was definitely good. But she wasn't Ruka.
I thought she would be the Moonlight Princess.
The music then changed into a soft lovely melody, at the same time another person appeared in the stage. Wearing a red uniform with gold designs and a red sword on the waist. The one who had the role of the Red Prince was.... Ruka?
Huh?! What the crap?! Her role is the Red Prince?
I was quite surprised. Her hair was now tied to a ponytail and her face was not the usual cheerful smiling one, now she had a serious face that was filled charisma.
Ruka started to say her lines. The way she acted was quite excellent. The way she changed her expression and flawlessly say her lines with a boyish-like tone. She is definitely an expert, her >Acting< skill must be bit higher than mine.
Still, to think that she would crossdress in this play-...
.....
.....
.....
"That's it! CROSSDRESS!"(Jeff)
I unconciously screamed my thoughts. My body was now frozen from processing the situation.
All of the people in the theater stared at me confused, even the ones in the stage were staring at me. The music also stopped.
Ahh, shit. This is awkward....
I closed my mouth which has been open until now.
"I'm so sorry!"(Jeff)
I escaped from the theater to avoid seeing those stares that penetrates my soul. Shit, I never felt embarassed like this in all of my life.
Fear: 5%
Yeah, that's right! I was a bit scared of those stares, okay! I think I even heard someone say, "Eww, that guy's a pervert..."
No, more importantly I finally completed my plan.
I noticed that I've been running for a while without knowing where to go. I stopped my feet and changed my direction of destination.
-
Right now, I went to the high class clothing store that I talked about last time. Even though nobles mostly buys in this kind of shop. Even commoners are also allowed to buy here as long as they have the money.
"Hello sir. What kind of clothes are looking for?"(Shopkeeper)
"I would like a dress."(Jeff)
"Is it for your girlfriend? Then would you please tell me the siz-..."(Shopkeeper)
"No ,it's for me."
I cutted her words before she could speak, she looked at me blankly for moment. She was dumbfounded when I said those words with a straight face.
"......."(Shopkeeper)
"Hey! Are you gonna sell something or what?"(Jeff)
The shopkeeper tried to regain her posture.
"Ummm... then what kind of dress are you looking for?"(Shopkeeper)
"I would prefer something that shows a bit of a skin, a sexy one would be good."(Jeff)
"Then... I'll look something that might suit your taste..."(Shopkeeper)
The shopkeeper was able to speak but it was weak, it's like she's speaking without any energy at all. Is she realy that surprised?
"Sir... this was the one that I think that will.... look good on you."(Shopkeeper)
What's with the pause? Anyway, the shopkeeper brought me a black dress. The dress was designed to show the shoulders, the long skirt has a slit on the side, it was a design where it would show the legs of the wearer.
"Let me try it on..."(Jeff)
I wore the dress to check the size. Oh, what a coincidence it fits perfectly. This must be fate....
I changed back to my clothes and brought the dress to the still expressionless shopkeeper.
"I also would like to buy some accessories and also a pair of high heel shoes."(Jeff)
"Ok..."(Shopkeeper)
The shopkeeper brought all the others that I need.
"Ummm... All of it cost 53 gold and 90 silvers."(Shopkeeper)
I expected it to be expensive so it's fine. I gave the payment to shopkeeper. I stored all the things I bought at my magic pouch.
All right, to the next destination.
-
This time I went to a beauty parlor.
"I wonder if they are good..."(Jeff)
I went inside the parlor. Inside the parlor were lots of mirror placed on a desk filled with make ups and such. A mascular dude with a lipstick on his lips and wearing some pink outfit, greeted me with a big smile on his face.
"Oh my! What a cute boy! So what do you need?"(Gay Dude)
"I want you to turn me into a woman."(Jeff)
"......"(Gay Dude)
Huh? Why is his expression the same as the shopkeeper's?
"Are you sure?"(Gay Dude)
"Yeah."(Jeff)
"Are you also gay?"(Gay Dude)
"No."(Jeff)
"... please take seat."(Gay Dude)
I took a seat as the dude instructed.
"What kind of looks do you want?"(Gay Dude)
"Hmmm... I want to look like someone who's very elegant and mature. You can also use a wig on me if you want."(Jeff)
"*Sigh... I'll try my best then!"(Gay Dude)
Unlike the shopkeeper back then, the dude was able retain his cheerful smile.
After an hour experimenting on my face. Yeah, experimenting...
Well anyway, the dude was able to give the results that I wanted.
I looked in mirror and saw the reflection of an elegant lady staring back at me. She had sharp eyes and kissable lips. Her hair was colored white which was tied into a ponytail. Yes that girl was me.
"Oh my! You're very beautiful! I'm so jealous of you."(Gay Dude)
The dude showered me with praises as he admire my looks.
Now let's try "that".
"Ah.. Ahh.... Ahhh.... Ahhh...(Jeff)
If you're wondering what I'm doing, I'm currently tuning my voice so that I could imitate the voice of a girl. This technique was given to me at the organization. Our body was engineered in order to have ambiguous looks. Our body never grows muscle so that it would remain petite for the sake of disguising. My face was quite good looking, but if you put a wig on me just like now, I would look like a girl. I'm not really bothered by my looks since it's quite convinient.
"Ahh... Oh I got it!"(Jeff)
I was able tune my voice into a mature woman-like sound. With a change of manner of speaking it will definitely perfect.
"Wow! You could also change your voice."(Gay Dude)
"Thanks for helping me. Umm... Can you also teach on putting make up?"(Jeff)
"Of course! I'll even teach you for free. Ahh, it feels like I got a little sister now!"(Gay Dude)
"Uhhh... yeah... sure."(Jeff)
He's a friendly guy, ain't he.
The dude's name was Ricko, he teached me on how to use make up for an hour. I was to learn the steps thanks to him. After I payed him for the make over which costed 1 gold coin. I went back to the inn after that. And also.... no homo.
-
"I'm back..."(Jeff)
I'm sure am tired today, but with this, my plan is already setted. I didn't even got flustered by those actions that I did. Now that I think about it, I feel embarassed now.
"Oh, hello. Would you like to stay at the inn?"(Ruka)
"What are you talking about? I'm here to take my meal."(Jeff)
"Just a meal then? A meal will cost 20 coppers."(Ruka)
"What?! I thought breakfast and dinners was free if I stayed here?"(Jeff)
"Ummm... that's true meals are free if-....."(Ruka)
All of a sudden she stopped her words and stared into my face seriously. It was as if she's observing me. What's with her?
".....wait! Jeff?! What's with that look?! And-.. that voice?! What happened...."(Ruka)
"...huh?"(Jeff)
What is she talki-... Oh.... although I'm wearing my casual clothes I didn't noticed that I was still wearing make up and a wig. I also didn't noticed that I've been talking in girl voice mode....
"Ahahaha...."(Jeff)
I laughed wryly as I think of a good excuse to say.... I wasn't able to think anything good,
"So beautiful! Haha, I always wanted a big sister!"(Ruka)
Ruka hugged me tightly. Her expression was instantly changed into a big smile.
"Amazing! Oh, I got an idea! Follow me or I'll expose you~..."(Ruka)
What's with that devilish smile? Ruka pulled me into the staff's changing room...

.....help me.

It was the usual evening at the White Flower Inn. Many adventurers were drinking alcohol as they look at the beautiful women working there.
But the atmosphere this evening, there was something different than usual.
Right now all the people of the inn were looking at the magnificent figure. The girl was like a lone white flower who's beauty stands higher than anyone. The smooth pale skin that matched her beautiful white silky hair which was tied into a ponytail. Her face was very elegant and beautiful. Every movement that she made was flawless. The men couldn't help but swallow their saliva as they feel the temptation of her beauty.
But a man stepped into the forbidden ground and ignored his sanity as he give in to the temptation. He touched the soft part of the girl and grinned as he did it.
All of a sudden the girl's body started to twitch. She glared at the vulgar man with hatred but the beauty still remained in her face. The man didn't feel afraid at the girl, instead he was in ecstasy as he looks at the girl's face closely.
The angry girl drove her fist into the man's chin. With the enormous strength that the girl possessed the man's head hit the ceiling and went down with blood on his face.
"You pervert! I'll kill you!"
"AHhh! You shouldn't hurt the customer!"
The girl was restrained by an another girl. If she wasn't restrained she would have killed a person in front of the others.
But still the beauty on her face still remai-....
Shut the fuck up, you goddamn author! What's with this narration?! Are you fucking with me?! Hurry up and change the scrip-..."
And then the night passed as always. A beautiful way to end a story it is....
