Living In Another World With Cheats
Chapter 15 The Holy Night of a Thousand Stars

After everyone heard the news about the night a thousand stars would begin, the next morning everyone began to decorate their homes and shops with various bright decorations, even the streets were decorated with various decorations. Ryouta, who was walking around the city, said,

"It looks like it's quite crowded here huh," he said walking while watching around.

While walking around the city, many children came to him to invite him to play. After playing with the children, Ryouta continues his journey.

A few minutes later, as he was walking around the city, he suddenly stopped in front of a blacksmith's place, then he remembered that Rui's sword had started to break, and because yesterday after he defeated the Behemoth he had time to take some scales belonging to the Behemoth that were released when fighting with him. Because it was in front of the blacksmith's place, Ryouta decided to enter the blacksmith's place.

"With me here, I'd better go in and look around maybe I can buy Rui a gift, because at that time I've been looking for "The Holy Night of a Thousand Stars" in the royal library, and it seems like that tradition is the same as Christmas in my old world" Ryouta said, entering the blacksmith's place.

Upon entering, an old man came up to him and asked,

"Welcome young man" said the man welcoming Ryouta

"Thank you for the welcome, oh yeah I see there's a lot of good weapons and armor, is this your thing?"

"You have good eyes, young man, it's true that these are all my creations, but they're just displays."

"Indeed, why are all these good weapons and armor just a display?"

"Everyone doesn't know this place, and the royal soldiers no longer buy or forge weapons here, they'd rather buy from the weapons shop at the east gate of the job."

"So yes, it's a pity that the quality of the weapons here is very good," Ryouta said as he went around looking at all the weapons and armor he had made.

After a long time around, his gaze was fixed on one of the bluish-black swords that seemed to break into two pieces. Interested in the sword, Ryouta decided to take it and handed it to the old man who was a blacksmith and said,

"Uncle, can you repair this sword with the materials I have," Ryouta said, handing over a medium bag of Behemoth scales.

Seeing Ryouta give her the scales of the Behemoth, she asked him,

"Are you sure you're handing this over to me?"

"Of course why not, oh yes, can you make a sword like this" Ryouta said showing the first cut of Rui's katana.

Upon seeing the shape of the sword, the old man said to Ryouta,

"This is a weapon from the Eastern region, and is only used by the soldiers of the Eastern occupation, namely the work of Raizan, their swords are known to have a very light weight and also sharp sword blades that are able to cut through their enemy's armor in a single slash, I am very happy to be able to work on this sword for you, and I will use all my skills to finish this sword in one night."

"Ah... I entrust Uncle's pad to make the sword the best it can be" Ryouta said walking away from the place.

After finishing from the blacksmith's place, he again continued his journey to tour the royal city of Deltras. After a long walk, he began to stop again at an accessories store, there he saw a variety of beautiful accessories, and, moreover, the store is now being visited by women and also those who have lovers. In the middle of the crowd, Ryouta saw a dark blue-haired girl tied in twintails looking confused to choose accessories for someone then after seeing all the accessories he said, saying,

"It looks like there's nothing here either, ha.ahh... I can't give him a present this year."

Ryouta, who heard the girl's words, approached her and asked her,

"What are you looking for?"

When he heard someone ask him from beside him, the girl was shocked then accidentally his head and Ryouta's head clashed with each other.

"sick... Ah you, if it's not wrong we've met before, and if I don't remember your name wrong Ryouta right?"

"My name is Ryouta, but why do you know my name, have we met before?"

"Don't you remember huh, we met once in Logsverial town."

"Are you Arisa?"

"Why do you remember now, Baka..."

"I'm sorry I often forget things I don't remember for a long time."

"Based on you, you are indeed forgetful Ryouta," Arisa told him

"Oh yeah Arisa, you said you wanted to give someone a present, but you didn't find the item you were looking for in this place, did you?"

"Ah... That's right, what's wrong?"

"May I know what you're looking for?"

"I'm looking for a Aurora crystal necklace, which will emit a different light when exposed to any light including moonlight, but I can't find it here."

"Well, did you check out the other store?"

"I've checked five stores since I got here and this is the sixth store I checked out but I didn't find it either."

"Well, I guess I can ask the shop owner's uncle, if there's a store that sells Aurora crystals, like where?" Ryouta tries to help Arisa.

After asking the store owner, he also told Arisa that from the information of the store owner, there was one of the shops at the western end of this city and inside that shop they usually made magic accessories at quite expensive prices. Hearing the information Ryouta got, Arisa said,

"Whatever the price is, I'll still buy it, because it's for my best friend, as his birthday gift."

"If you say so, then I'll take you there, maybe I can also give a gift to someone, so let's go Arisa."

"Ah... All right, let's go."

After leaving the store, they began looking for a store that made various kinds of magic accessories. A few hours after searching and searching, they finally arrived also in front of a shop that the top left of the store contained a Magic Equipment Symbol.

"It looks like this is the store in question, how about we enter now," Ryouta said as he looked at Arisa.

"Yes, let's go inside."

As they opened the door, a small hell sound rang out above their heads, then a long red-haired girl in witch clothes came out of the room beside the table that contained several boxes of magic accessories welcoming them and said,

"Yaho, welcome to the Lumira Magic Accessories and Tools store, we sell accessories and various kinds of magic supplies, we also accept orders to make any accessories or magic tools you want."

"Yes... Excuse me, did you sell Aurora's crystal necklace?"

"Ahh, that necklace huh? Sorry but we're not making the necklace anymore at this time, because the supply line is now being cut off, because of the Behemoth incident yesterday."

Hearing that, Ryouta began to say to Arisa,

"I think that's the only option, let me leave the negotiations to you Ryouta," Arisa said entrusting the negotiations to her.

"All right leave it to me."

"Yes... Excuse me... Aaa...?"

"Ah right also yes I have not introduced myself, my name is Lumira Elmeraria Zuo, just call me Rumi yes," he said introducing himself to Ryouta.

"Yes... Miss Rumi, can you ask you something?"

"Of course, please ask me anything."

"I wonder where usually the people who supply Aurora crystals get that stuff?"

"Ah yes, Aurora crystals are only found behind the Sorian plateau, there are many different types of crystals, one of which is the Aurora crystal that you are looking for."

"So yeah, oh yeah I also want to ask, how much does it cost to make magic accessories from Aurora crystals? And how long is the manufacturing process?"

"Usually the cost of the process depends on the details and complexity of the order from the customer, usually the manufacturing process takes up to three days, especially to make carvings and insert magic spells in it."

"That's it, but if we already have the body of the necklace that has been engraved, how long will it take?"

"If you have that material, then maybe the workmanship can be faster."

"Well, it seems we agree, and about the cost of making it, we can discuss later how?"

"Again, if you can understand the language, then we will immediately work on it quickly" Rumi told Ryouta.

After agreeing with Rumi, Ryouta and Arisa begin to head to the Sorian plateau. A few minutes after they got there, there were a lot of different crystals there.

"It looks like we've found this crystal spot, how about we split up to find that Aurora crystal?"

"I don't think it's necessary, since I've already found the crystal, so let's go back before the celebration of the Thousand Star Holy Night begins," arisa tells Ryouta to go back to Lumira's store to make a necklace for his best friend.

A few hours later, after they arrived at Lumira's shop, they handed him a necklace that had been carved together with Aurora crystals that they could put together and put a magic in it.

After waiting for several hours, Arisa's order necklace was finally finished. When the first necklace was completed, only a few minutes apart, a magic bracelet with Ruby jewels and a carving similar to the Dragon was also completed, then when the bracelet was made, Arisa took it, and gave it to Ryouta, saying,

"Here I made you a magic bracelet, don't get me wrong, I gave this because I want to thank you, that's all, you don't expect anything else from me."

When Ryouta received the bracelet from Arisa, Lumira said to him,

"Uwahh, it looks like you've just been proposed to by him, and that bracelet is a sign that he proposed to you, because in the tradition of this city, it is, if a man or a woman gives you a necklace or bracelet containing jewels or crystals, it means he's in love with you."

Immediately Arisa's face flushed red as she said to Ryouta,

"J-don't get me wrong, I-I'm giving this not because I like you, ahh... Mou, that's enough, I'm out of here" said Arisa with a flushed face going out of the Lumira store.

After Arisa came out of the store, Ryouta who was still in the store also saw two small bells decorated with a jewel on the red rope that binds the bell. Interested, he said, too,

"Yes... Excuse me, may I know how much those little bells cost?"

"It seems you have good eyes, the magic bell is a special bell, inside there is a magic amplifier, the stronger the user the stronger the power of the bell."

"Well, all right, I've decided, I'll buy that bell."

"A good choice, therefore, I give you a rebate of about 30%, so the price of this bell is 350 gold coins, how about?"

"So far, I bought the bell," Ryouta said, handing over 350 gold coins to Lumira.

After buying the bell, he began wrapping it with a color paper made by him, plus a small ribbon wrapped in the gift. A few hours passed after leaving Lumira's shop, Ryouta now decided to return to Deltras' royal palace to help Rui and the others there.

************************************

On the way, he saw a large tree that seemed to have just been cut down from the forest, and saw all the crowds decorating the tree with bright decorations. Arriving Ryouta at the Fricilla palace and others are seen busy arranging the royal hall space for the celebration party that will be held tonight. Seeing that, Ryouta said in his mind,

"Ah... This tradition does look like Christmas in my old world, it makes me feel a little nostalgic."

After a few minutes passed, he arrived at the kitchen of the royal palace of Deltras, where he saw Rui with the royal chefs cooking various kinds of dishes and also various kinds of cakes. Seeing that Rui and the others are busy, Ryouta decides to give gifts to Rui when she is not busy.

A few hours passed, it did not feel like the day was getting dark and from outside the palace came the sounds of Fricilla, Erina, Chisaki, and Victoria along with princess Asami talking alternately. Out of curiosity, Ryouta decided to go outside the palace, and upon arriving there, he saw that everyone was waiting for something from the big tree, then a few minutes after that, Fricilla said, too,

"Are you guys ready? If you're ready, then let's start this celebration, in the name of Goddess Minerva give your light to illuminate this tree."

"In the name of the goddess Athena, give your light to light this tree."

"In the name of Goddess Artemis, give your light to illuminate this tree."

"On behalf of Goddess Nemessis, give your light to illuminate this tree."

After Fricilla, Chisaki, Erina, and Victoria together gave the light of the four Goddesses, the tree decorated by everyone began to be surrounded by bright lights that continuously changed color, and changed colors, then after the big tree was covered in light, the light was now spreading all over the place and illuminating all with a light that was always changing colors endlessly.

As the tree glowed, many girls approached Ryouta, giving him a gift. Because of the many gifts she received, Fricilla approached her and said,

"You're pretty popular too, Ryouta, you even get a lot of presents from everyone."

"That's right, everyone always gives me gifts, to the point that I have a hard time taking care of them."

"You're really weird, yeah, even though you get a lot of presents, you feel that you've received quite a lot, but, I'm here to give you a special gift, as a representative of Erina and the others, I gave you a magic bracelet made from the crystal shards on Behemoth's chest, even though we didn't know how you would wear it."

"Ah... Thank you very much Fricilla, I am happy to receive this gift, and also please kindly convey my thanks to Erina and the others."

"Before that, I had something I wanted to tell you, when you saved me back then, if I was so stubborn, I was always confident in my abilities, I could never trust anyone but myself, but you made me aware of my weakness, so I wanted to give you this as a gift from me." Fricilla looked at Ryouta and then with a little tiptoe, she kissed Ryouta on the forehead.

"Thank you for awakening me to what I've been doing, Ryouta, please keep this secret from the rest."

"Ah... I'll keep this a secret until the time comes."
