DORS..DORR

  [ Point : 1043 ]

   More improvement than previous results. I'm getting used to holding a gun now. Maybe I will be able to catch up with Kaizo's exorbitant points in the next few months.

   "My hands hurt a little.." I twisted my right wrist.

   Probably because of the boost effect given by his gun. Even if you have held the gun for a long time, the effect will still be felt. 

  I'll rest for a while downstairs to relieve the pain first. 

   "Well, I'd better do it often - exercise often to strengthen my hands to neutralize the pain," you me while sitting in a downstairs chair.

   I opened my smartphone to check it. I received a message from Novaria. I quickly tried to reply to that message.

  - What's Nov? 

  -(by typing) 

  do you have any free time tomorrow Raph?

     Hmm. I don't have any activity plans for tomorrow other than training here. Tomorrow is Sunday after all. I used to spend my time that day.

   - Nov, why?

    I asked him. Looks like he'll take me away tomorrow. If it was as I thought, I would gladly accept it. I haven't walked with him for a long time, other than at school.

   want to go somewhere not tomorrow?

  Exactly as I thought. Without much time, I immediately replied to him quickly.

   - By Nov, I also miss you.

    A little teasing might be better. 

   -ihh! I also know. Yaudah, I'll tell you again tomorrow, dear. Thafs..

   -dah too..

   The short conversation ended. A little happy to be with him again tomorrow. I feel bad when there is no one near me.

   I put my smartphone back. Unexpectedly, the entrance was open. Though it is my key that holds, why is there someone who can enter.

   I started to stand up and try to make sure who came in. Likely, it was Father who opened the door. But all I know is, the key to entry is only 1 and I'm holding it right now.

   TESSS

   {Kak Kaizo? What's he here.} 

   Tumben once I saw him in ITG. Due to his busy life, he rarely went here again. I also tried to get close to him. I hope he doesn't stay away from me anymore.

   "For Kaizo's sister." say hello to me.

   He turned towards me with his flat face. 

    "Well, are you here?" ask Brother Kaizo.

   Whoa!! Finally he spoke to me. It's been a long time since I've spoken to him. I was a little excited and surprised at the same time.

    "I'm practicing here. If Kaizo's sister wants to do something?" 

    He also looked around. Then looked back at my face Sharply afterwards. I was a little scared when he looked at me.

     "Good, I just want to go here to fill the free time," replied Kaizo with a flat-face Raut and a sharp look.

     For the first time I was given a compliment. I was a little misbehaved too, hopefully with this my relationship with him can harden.

      "Thank you, brother. Oh yeah, what did you come in using? I hold the key" I asked.

      "I have the spare key. And also.." she tried to stare with an even sharper gaze until my body shook. "Did you steal the keys from Dad's room?" ask Brother Kaizo.

    Yep.. Haha.I took it without permission anyway. It can be categorized by theft. 

      "Haha. If I ask her permission directly, it will interfere with her work later." I replied with a shy laugh by scratching my hair.

      "Other times permission to Dad. I don't want this place to fall apart" said Kaizo.

      "Sorry Brother Kaizo. I'll ask her permission later. But please don't drive me out of here, I still want to practice." I muttered while slightly regretting.

       "No, I'm not going to kick you out. I'm just asking you not to make this place a mess." 

     Turns out he was nice to me. I thought he was a bad guy all along. Yeah, because I haven't spoken to her since I was a kid. And also the look on his face made me a little afraid to approach him.

      "Good Brother! I won't make this place messy." I answered tightly while putting on an upright posture.

      "Then I'll go first."

    Kaizo's brother left this place. I might be able to ask him to train me later when he has some free time like this. Learning from him is a good thing.

   I also resumed my training.

   **************

    1 and a half hours passed….

   Now I'm on my way home after training at ITG. The weather began to heat up accompanied by sunlight that stung directly into my skin. This summer has made me nervous.

    On the street, I accidentally met Roselianne who was walking around the area near my residence. I tried to get close to him by running. I put my hand on his right shoulder. He quickly turned to look at me with a slightly surprised face.

   "Siang Rose.." say hello to me.

   "Well, who do I think. You are Raph." Roselianne exhaled slowly.

   "Sorry.Where did Rose come from?" ask me.

   When viewed from his clothes, it seemed like he had just finished exercising. But if it's sports, why is he passing near my residence? The park is far from here.

    "I'm out of the outside. Jogging From the Outside." 

   He was Jogging outside the Area. I rarely see him in the park in the morning. I rarely go to the park. 

     "Oh.. Where are you going? Straight home?" 

     "Well, I want to go home too. Dah Rose.." while raising my hand.

     He also raised one hand a little. We separated to return to our homes.

    ****************

   "I'm getting bored..What should I do?"  it's still 10:00, it's still a long time to wait for tomorrow. Maybe I'll try to interact with Triniade. I haven't heard the Old Man's voice in a long time.

   I also tried to focus my mind on sending a signal to Triniade. Closing my eyes, I began to speak in my heart to telepathize with her. 

  (Old Man!! Old Man, can you hear my voice?)

   A few minutes of no response from him. It's hard to reach her when I want to talk to her. I turned my mind and tried to contact Vania. 

    (Vania.. can you hear my voice?)

   Not long after, someone's voice sounded from my mind.

    (What's the matter, Mr Raphael?)

   I can finally connect with him. Even if I didn't talk to Triniade, I could still ask Vania later.

    (Has SP System been fixed Vania? I want to exchange a few points that I get.)

    (It's been fixed, Mr. Raphael.. You can change it now.)

    Good, but the thing is, now I don't understand how to trade it. I had to ask him again about what his exchange was like.

    (How do I exchange it? I don't know how.)

    (I will guide Mr. Raphael how to trade it. You can see a System Window later.)

    Hearing her say that, I opened my eyes and tried to interact using her system Window. 

    "Status Activated." I said slowly.

    A System Window instantly appeared before me. I was a little surprised to see my statistics. Now, all the abilities of the body began to increase all the way to Tier C. A Drastic improvement simply because of practicing for Months.

   「 To exchange SP, you can go to 」 redemption page

   In accordance with the instructions given by Vania, I clicked on the redemption page that was at the bottom of the system window. 

     「 Weapon , Attribute, Statistics, Item 」

    There are many types that can be exchanged. I also checked all the Goods of all Types. Started with Weapon. There's a Darkness Dagger for 10,000 SP. This was too expensive, and also judging from the Attributes of his weapon, it was just ordinary with Making a scar that could not be removed.

   Then there is the Alcantara Spear, a Spear with a silver pointed tip with a Lion motif at the end of the handle. It's ugly too. I looked down again until nothing was sold. 

   "The quality of the weapon is very expensive and also not suitable for me. Should I move to Attribute?" muttered

   I opened the Attribute section. Lots of equipment that can be exchanged here. Starting from Armor, Gloves, Rings and Necklace. Everything looks attractive and also cheap. Like this Mystical Gloves, I saw he had a power that could make anyone touched with his gloves be marked by him for several days. That's pretty good for this class of black Gloves that cost 75 SP. The SP I have now is only 100. 

   Without thinking any more, I immediately exchanged it for these Black Gloves. 

   「 Conversion successfully done 」

   A Black Glove had appeared in front of me miraculously. I took it immediately too. Seen, the Gloves were like having a mystical Aura surrounding them. I held it with my hand and tried to wear it.

   "The material is soft and also it looks good when I wear it." While standing in front of the glass by wearing Mystical Gloves. But I don't keep on wearing this, I don't want someone I touch to get a sign that shows the location later. 

    It seems like I should keep it again in my special storage room located in the Music Room. The Poseidon's Water Potion I exchanged from Jack is also well preserved there. I haven't worn it because I'm confused about how to wear it. I better keep it just in case later.

   I also put the Mystical Gloves in a small Crate that I hid in the corners of the Music Room. In this coffin there is only Poseidon's Water Potion. There are 2 items stored here. Hopefully one day these items can be used well.

   I closed the box and tried to exchange the remaining SP. Open the System Window again and open the Statistics section this time. On this page, I can increase my stats using SP for a while. And also the price is quite expensive, for one level only I have to spend 50 SP for one of the statistics.

   Free, now I only have 25 SP left. I also moved the page to Item. There are many items available. And also, I saw that the Poseidon's Water Potion I exchanged for Jack was also sold here. It seemed like the Item did indeed have its own Specialty.

    I saw a small bag. From the description, this bag can store everything in it. Also, it costs only 25 SP. This corresponds to the SP I have now. This bag should be useful for storing items that I can get in Evilanse World later.

   I just realized that when they kill monsters, they always drop something from their bodies. Whether it's a fang, a ring or even a stone colored like a jewel.

   Since I couldn't bring it all, I was forced to leave the drop there. With a small Pouch Item that can carry anything, I can take my hunting results later by a large amount.

   I immediately exchanged it back. 

   「 Conversion successfully done 」

   I waited for the bag to appear in front of me.

  **************

   A few moments later…

   "Where's the stuff, is the system error again?" chirp me.

   I've been waiting for a few minutes but the bag hasn't appeared yet. I immediately spoke to Vania.

   (Vania.. Is the error system back?)

   Before long, he also returned it.

   (No, Mr. Raphael, the system's working fine. No problem here.)

   (Lantas, why haven't the bags I exchanged appeared yet?)

   (The dimensional bag is yes.want you wait until however long the bag will not appear in front of you.)

    Then why did he put that stuff on the exchange?

   (Why indeed?)

   (Because the Item will be self-installed with its System. You can open it by saying Open Storage. Then automatically will appear a storage window that you can use.)

   It turns out like that. I thought there was a problem going on. I also tried to say what Vania said earlier.

   "Open Storage."

   The System window reappears. There are several boxes there that can be used to store. I was quite amazed by the mechanism of the system that Triniade created. Also, the capacity of this storage is quite a lot. Moreover, it can still be upgraded by using SP.

   I'll keep Poseidon's Water Potion and Mystical Gloves here instead of in that little crate….
