Chapter 12 Open Status?
When the transaction was over, Clarista and I exited the Confession Room.
I walked inside the church, which was still falling apart.
As I came out of the church, I noticed that it was already dusk. The sun had almost completely set, devoured by the darkness of the night, slowly.
"Whoa~"
Clarista yawned. She stretched her body like rubber. Her breasts looked like they were about to tear the robe she was wearing. I'm not a pervert, but I'm still amazed by the size of the assets she has.
She turned around, looked at me, then came up to me and immediately grabbed both of my shoulders tightly. Smiling, she spoke to me.
"Don't forget to pay your debt, ok! What you bought is worth 199 Gold Coins, so, you better pay it quickly. Even your life won't be enough to pay for the Magical Item you bought. This transaction was successful only because of the kindness of my heart. Remember that."
She gave me a warning.
199 Gold Coins is arguably not too expensive for a Magical Item.
The currencies in this world are divided into, Copper Coins, Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Platinum Coins. Copper coins are the lowest, while Platinum coins are the highest.
However, Platinum Coins are almost never exchanged. So, in general, the highest currency exchanged is Gold Coins.
1 Copper Coins can buy one slice of rye bread. The rye bread was hard and unpleasant, so it was only for the poor people.
Meanwhile, Silver Coins were commonly used by people from the upper-middle class. Even rich people mostly still used Silver Coins.
In short, the exchange rate was 1 Gold Coin equal to 100 Silver Coins: 1000 Bronze Coins, and 10,000 Copper Coins.
The values are not always the same.
So, how much are 199 Gold Coins? Of course, very much. But that's for ordinary people. For people with abilities, be they Magicians, Warriors, or otherwise, that amount of money wasn't very much. All of those Magical Items could only be purchased with a minimum of tens or hundreds of Gold Coins.
"Ha~ don't worry. Where can I find you when I have enough money?"
"Find me at the Cathedral in the Royal Capital of Misonia, Heinsburg City."
After she answered, she looked into my eyes for a while. As if she was intimidating me.
Of course, I wasn't affected.
I just averted my gaze. But maybe she mistook me for fear, she tapped me on the shoulder and pulled her hand off my shoulder.
"I can't wait to meet Jullian. So, I'll be rushing to the mansion where your family lives. See you soon, Young Master Warwick."
"Cweet!"
After bidding farewell, Clarista suddenly whistled.
Out of nowhere, suddenly a horse came over. The horse ran over here and stopped right in front of Clarista.
'Is that her horse? Some Kind of Familiar? It must be some kind of Magical Beast.'
I wondered about how Clarista and Jullian got to this Ryam City in just one day. Though, if I'm not mistaken, they are from the capital, which takes a week to ride a normal horse.
The answer is: They must be using their Familiars.
The horse has yellowish-white fur, shining brilliantly at sunset.
Clarista immediately mounted the horse. She looked like someone out of a painting. Beautiful and awesome are not enough to describe her figure.
Wasn't she supposed to be the main female character? My opinion is still the same about her. Why doesn't she much appear in the novel?
I kept looking at her. And she suddenly sighed.
"Ahh, I must have sinned for making this person fall in love."
I heard Clarista mumble. Even though she muttered under her breath, I could still hear it because of my Skill.
When I heard what she was muttering, for some reason, the expression on my face immediately changed.
"Hey, why did your facial expression suddenly change like that? It's like you're insulting me."
She suddenly shouted at me.
I just shook my head and answered her.
"It's fine. You can go ahead first. I'll catch up with you later."
"You suck ... Ah, I almost forgot. Take this."
She handed me something. It is square, black in color, small in size, and thin as paper.
I caught what she gave me.
Snatch!
"Ahaha, you're already like a dog that's been fed."
Clarista commented sarcastically.
I averted my eyes from the thing she gave me, and I look at Clarista.
"Why haven't you left yet?"
She looked angry about what I said. Then she directly kicked the horse she was riding.
The horse looked like it wanted to complain, but the horse immediately galloped off. Disappear beyond the horizon. Leaving behind the sound of the horse's footsteps.
"The horse was fast."
I just looked at Clarista's shadow which was slowly fading away.
The plan was, Clarista and I would go to the mansion the Warwick household lives.
In there, there will be a Night Party to celebrate Willa's (And I?) maturity.
'Shouldn't we go there together?' I wanted to say those words just now, but I stopped those words in my head, unable to come out of my mouth.
If it is the main character, then he will take her for a walk together, suddenly join hands, then a romantic love story will form.
But the scenario was too beautiful for me.
However, soon after, I regretted that I didn't force Clarista to let us go together.
"Shit!"
I said loudly while looking around.
I didn't think they, Baron Warwick's soldiers, wouldn't leave the horse carriage for me to come back. There wasn't even a horse for me to ride.
It is deeply regretted, but I had to walk.
Even though the distance wasn't far enough, it would still take two hours if I walked.
While walking, I looked at the item Clarista had given to me. What she had given me was an ID Card.
What was written on the ID card was my identity as a noble from the Misonia Kingdom.
<Name: Mesties Warwick.
Mana Cores:-
Registration Number: 0088123589.>
With this ID Card, I can move freely. There are many uses for ID cards.
One of them is that this ID Card will be useful to me when I will register as an Adventurer later. To enter big cities, you must also use an ID Card.
When I looked closely, I realized that there was some magic added to this ID Card. It was magic to prevent someone from being able to forge an ID Card.
[The data in the ID Card has been recorded.]
[The data in your status is more complete. Do you want to see your status? If you say 'Open Status', you will be able to see your Status Window.]
I smiled when I saw the system message that suddenly appeared.
Come to think of it, World System mostly asks me first when the system is about to do something.
So, when I fainted in front of the statue of the God of Apollo, that must be a special case. I don't know what was that, but I want to know. Will I know if I get stronger? What conditions do I have to fulfill?
Well, seeing that the World System has never harmed me, I can assume that World System is an existence that I can categorize as an 'ally'.
The World System has always helped me. So, should I cry and prostrate myself to express my gratitude?
Let's put aside the World System first.
I began to read the message carefully.
"Open Status?"
I said those words by accident. Then the system message suddenly appeared.
