We left the city gate behind us and the car moved along the street, there were businesses that offered their products while the shopkeeper shouted calling the attention of passersby. While watching the interaction of all of them Milane speaks to me.
"What was that before?"
"Nothing, I just thought you were going to say that we were the ones who ended up with the bandits"
"That was precisely what I intended to do, why did you stop me?"
"I don't want to be called to have to give account to the lord of this city. I prefer to pass as a normal citizen without attracting attention. Changing the subject, it seems that all of you are governed by a feudal system, is that correct? Also, precisely where are we?"
She looks at me as if found some strange animal and was trying to classify it, I can't do anything about it. We have only a few days in this world.
"You really don't know anything right? What were you two doing before you reached the town?"
"You may think we lived in isolation and that both left our house together for a better future"
"... Didn't you say before that you weren't brothers?"
"Tch, how picky, then we are a couple in love who escaped by not being accepted by the love we felt between the two of us"
"... weren't you a man?"
"Damn, I am a man!! When I said they didn't accept us, it was because of our age difference!"
While having fun with Kurisu's reaction to what I said, Milane pressed right in the place that caused me pain. Seeing me upset, the two try to calm me down because we were getting everyone's attention.
"Sorry, forget your age for how mature you are when talking"
"Okay, whatever. But are you going to answer me or not?"
"Of course, this is the city of Barl, it is governed by Count Renma Barl and he is vassal of the kingdom of Delna. In addition, it is located on the Nureld continent."
Then I was right, it is a monarchy and each city must have its lord appointed by the king. I don't want to deal with them for now, it is better to wait until I have enough strength so they do not despise me. Also, I don't want to have to deal with some stereotype of a fat ruler who falls in love with Kurisu, or in the worst case, of me and wants to force us as his concubine or mistress.
"When you give your report to the lord of this city, do not mention me or Kurisu, say that someone who passed by saved the town. You understand Milane?"
"I-it's fine, but it can give you a reward for saving the people. Don't you want it?"
"It is not necessary you can keep it, we do not need it for now"
Because of the pressure and seriousness with which I told her not to talk about us, Milane became a little restless, but she quickly recovered and continued to steer the car out of the main street that led to the entrance of the city.
The city seemed quite large in comparison to the town, the houses were not made of adobe and thatched roof. Most were brick constructions and citizens appeared to have a prosperous life at first sight.
I don't want to say that everyone looked rich, I could still see children and adults asking money to others, but it wasn't like they crowded the streets. Wherever I passed my eyes saw people doing their job, not that they emanated happiness from them, it was just normal people doing what they should to survive in society.
There were also a good number of armed people who walked on the streets, alone or in groups. I assumed they were adventurers who resided in this city or were passing through.
But what caught the attention of both Kurisu and me, mainly me, were 2 things. The first thing was the great diversity of races. There were elves, dwarves, leprechaun, people with ears of various animals on their heads, others had tails and lizard scales, or a different skin color and I do not mean normal colors like in our world. Here you could see someone with blue or red skin walking the streets.
The second thing was that they were not as primitive as I expected, apart from the cars pulled by animals, large mechanical vehicles that operated with some kind of energy were distinguished in the streets.
"How many types of race are there in this world?"
"Undoubtedly many, is impressive right? And Barl is considered a small city. At first I was surprised to be raised in a town of humans like Rek, but you get used to it over time"
Although it was a rhetorical question, Milane answered me. And all this is only a small part of Gaia, there will be more impressive things that await us along our path.
"Why don't you better get one of those cars?"
"You know how much those cost? The cheapest is about 30,000C. I had to invest 2,000C for the one that I'm driving. In addition, those vehicles need crystals to move, I prefer mine that just have to feed the big lizard 2 times a day"
I guess it was like telling someone that has to use public transportation in my world, why they don't buy a Ferrari or Lamborghini.
After making several turns around the city, Milane's car stopped in front of a small house. The ground floor had a small business where it put several items for sale. It was in charge of young human woman in her 18s who was waiting for customers at the counter, she saw us and ran to the car.
"Teacher, you arrived earlier than expected"
"Ah Celi, how's the business going? A lot of things happened and I came back before"
"Teacher? What do you teach her? How to stay single for the rest of her life?"
"Alex!!"
"Of course not! She is a trainee of merchant, so I teach her things about trade!"
"Oh I'm sorry, since you're so mature and you're alone, I forgot that you were a merchant."
"Damn spiteful brat!!"
When I said sarcastically while smiling, she tries to grab me, but I dodge and get behind Kurisu who tries to calm her down. Then we get interrupted by the girl named Celi.
"Who are they Teacher?"
"A friend her name is Kurisu and a damn insolent brat, you can ignore it. Hump"
"So you don't want to make the deal?"
"Is true, the deal ! His name is Alexander, treat him well Celi he is an important client"
"Fuuu ... maybe it's because you care more about coins that you can't get a man"
"It's not your problem, the coins are what give me the sustenance and not some man. Enter quickly and let's do business"
"Well, I have nothing against women who are independent."
Saying that, we follow her and enter the store, we pass the counter and continue until reach what is in the shape of a warehouse due all the things stored inside. I look for a free space and take out all the material of the goblins that obtained by breaking them down with the system. A small mountain with green skins, bones and goblins meat is created, after making sure that it was all I give a sign for them to check it.
Milane with the help of Celi who was called back from her surprise when everything appeared out of nowhere by her teacher, begin their work and review each object while making notes in a notebook. Waiting a few tens of minutes they finish and Milane gives me her estimate of the things value.
"You really ended up with a settlement of goblins right? There are also elite goblins and what should have been their boss in the materials ... for the 123 pieces goblin skin I will give you 25G for each one being a total of 3,075G I will buy the meat for 30G per head, with a total of 3,690, for the bones and the rest 1000G.
Now the elite, 100G for the skin of each one giving a total of 1,300G, their meat for 50G, this is not so to much because there is not much difference with that of the normal goblins, they are 650 in total. The bones and other material will also be 100 per head, 1300G for all of them.
Finally, the Goblin Chief I will give you 5,000G for his entire body. With a total of 16,015G for everything, it is the best price you will get throughout the city. Take it or leave it"
"Okay, for our long friendships just give me 16,000G and keep the rest"
"Tch, damn stingy brat ... it's only 15G, you could round it up at 15,000G. Give me the G card that I gave you before to put them there"
When she tells me, she manage the guild identification and first introduces some G cards, filling the funds in her account I suppose, then I hand mine with 13K-G in it and in seconds she returns it to me, but now this mark 29K-G. Very practical, I wish had one of these in my world to avoid long lines in the bank.
"It was a pleasure making deals with you. Come back whenever you want"
"Likewise, can you tell me where the guild is? I want to register both of us"
"Celi show them the way"
I ask Milane for directions to the guild, I don't want to waste time looking for it and also need to complete the mission as soon as possible, solving my problem she asks Celi to guide our path.
I have the system map, but since the city counts as an internal area and I have to map the surroundings on my own. I will do that later when I have nothing to do, we say goodbye to Milane, promising to meet again and then leave.
Spending several minutes after starting to walk in the streets, we return to the Main Avenue through which enter and continue straight. Time later in front of us a large construction compared to those around attracts my attention, in the center over its entrance has an image of three stone arches as dimensional doors surrounding the silhouette of a person with a sword and a shield. Under this image was read "Word Guild".
"That's the guild, so if there's nothing else I'll be back with my teacher. See you later, visit the store one more time."
Mentioning the obvious Celi says goodbye with a nod and returns where we came from. Is the two of us alone again, both looking at the building for a few moments then we start to walk to enter.
Inside there were a large number of people, the majority formed in lines at the various counters that were served by those who should be guild staff. They dress formally, wore a white shirt and a black vest with the gold logo of the guild where the hearts of people would be. In addition, they wore a black beret over their heads, with the exception of those they physical have horns or large ears of animals such as rabbits that imped it.
When analyzing the content of what is written on each reception cubicle, I find the one that says "New records" and I tell Kurisu.
"We have to line up there to register"
"How do you know?"
"Because it's written above?"
"Eh, can you read those letters?"
I look at her for a moment thinking about what she was saying and then I see the texts again. Looking at them in detail, although I have the ability to read them I can say that it is the first time that I see these types of letters or symbols...
"It seems that I can read them without problems ... as we speak normally with the people we had meeting so far, I assumed that it was the same language"
"That's for this ring, right?"
With her words Kurisu shows me the hand and on index finger was a ring that I had not noticed. When did she get it? And from who? ... Seeing my doubts he answers me.
"Milane gave it to me the first time we met, when you left us to look for the thieves she wanted to talk to me, but we couldn't understand what each one said. Then she took out this ring and gave it to me, I thought you had one for yourself"
[Universal Language Ring - J
Description: It allows the wearer to understand 100% of what another individual using a similar object tries to express with words in different languages.]
While evaluating the ring I show her my hands so she can see that I don't have a ring. Well, then why can I understand their language and also the letters that I've never seen?
"Eh ... so how do you understand what they say?"
[That's obviously because Cross intended you to go to many worlds, he made it possible for you to understand any language or type of writing]
It must be that way, but why doesn't it show up as a skill in my status? If he gave me that ability, should it be there, Am I grong Aurora?
[Because it is more a capacity and not a skill recognized by the world, it is like the farmers, not for doing that work will receive a skill with that name, it only remains as a capacity that the person possesses]
"It seems that I have the ability to speak any language or read any type of writing"
"Heee ... that's very unfair"
No doubt, but compared to other skills I have this is something simple. Receiving the look of envy from Kurisu the receptionist where we lined up calls us. She takes things that have to do with knowledge very seriously.
"Next please"
A pretty girl on the other side of the counter attend us, it seems we were lucky. From what I see the guild does not discriminate against races in order to work in it or it may be only in this branch, but being such a large organization probably it's the former.
"Good afternoon, we want to register for the guild, what do we need to do?"
"Be 12 or older than and pay a registration fee of 100G or 10C"
Well, I was worried about the age to enroll in the guild, but I barely make it ... but isn't age a bit lax? Many children can die. Kurisu puts my thoughts into words and asks the receptionist.
"They are not too young to enroll at that age? They can die"
"We have had to reduce the age limit for many complaints. As the guild's credential is often used as identification, requests have been made from important people to reduce the age limit to be able to better control the population using the guild's credentials. In the end the minimum age is 12 years, but it is recommended not to go on missions until 15. While they are in that period of three years it is better to focus on completing low-level missions within the city"
"Then please register us"
"It will be a pleasure"
She gives us some forms that we have to fill out, I complete it while I help Kurisu and when we deliver them she writes them down on some kind of machine similar to a computer. At the end of the procedure she asks us to place our hand on a sphere and while I put my hand there informs us.
"This will verify that you meet the age, in addition to verifying your level. You don't have to worry, the guild has a high degree of confidentiality and will not provide your data to third parties. Well, with that it would be enough, now your friend"
Kurisu performs the same procedure and in a few seconds also ends. Then the receptionist checks something on what looks like a computer and a small machine prints our guild identifications. The girl checks the credentials and with an apologetic expression tells me.
"Ah, it seems that I made a mistake in your data wait a moment"
"…where?"
"In your gender, I put you as a man"
I expected that, this is becoming so common that am getting used to it, is sad to think about it. After sighing I inform the receptionist.
"It's not a mistake, I'm a man"
"... you are very kind, but it is my responsibility and they will only tell me to be more careful, so do not worry, I will correct it"
"No, it is not because I am being kind, I'm telling you that I AM a man"
"It's true, he's a man. You haven't been wrong."
My voice climbs a scale in tone to emphasize it more and Kurisu continues with words of support. As a result, the girl gives me a beautiful smile and speaks again.
"You really don't have to worry, they don't discount it from my salary or anything like that"
"I tell you that I am a man!! Give me the damn card now!!"
Everyone Stop what they are doing and they turn their vision to us, the silence lasts for a few seconds until a muscular man with a hoarse voice that echoes throughout the place is heard.
"Hahaha, then I am the queen of Delna"
"Hahaha"
The laughs are heard throughout the guild and at that point my reason went flying. I turn to the man that speak and put my hand on the colt to draw it. Suddenly I feel something soft on my back, Kurisu's hands prevent me from pulling out my weapon and her voice tickles my ear.
"Stop Alex, it's too much to kill him for that. Please give us the cards!!"
The receptionist gives the ID to Kurisu and she pulls my hand and takes us out of the guild returning to the main street.
Once outside I take long breath to calm down while Kurisu stroke my back as comfort. Fuuu ... seriously I tried to remain calm since it was becoming a habit for people to confused me with a woman, not that I don't understand my appearance, the problem was that even correcting them, they denied my true gender.
When my breathing calmed down, Kurisu handed me the guild ID and when I took it in my hands the system notification sounds in my head. Without wasting time I go directly to the system menu in my head.
[Beep]

With this I should not have pending missions, I'm again without an objective. Mmmn ... how strange, the option of ongoing missions should have to be empty, but one I still there. Filled with curiosity I select it to see its description and it displayed the information.

Skill [Parallel Thinking] ]
Woh, when did I get this mission? Besides, is the system telling me to conquer Kurisu? ... well, that was what I intended even if it didn't tell me.
[It was when Kurisu was touching your penis the first time]
"Quum"
"What's happen Alex?"
"N-no nothing"
Aurora's sudden words make me choke with my own saliva. Kurisu notices my little shock and asks me with doubts and taking a second to stabilize I answer her to keep up appearances.
Aurora ... you shouldn't be so direct about those issues since you're a girl, much less bringing them out of nowhere. It's a bit shocking to hear those words with your kind of voice ... it's bad for my heart.
But that explains why I did not realize I had this mission ... so, for the system to shows me the emotions of people it is needed to touch that part? If so, it's not a useful function, maybe is only for my potential couples?
[That part of your body is not called that way? I was wrong? And it is not necessary that it is precisely touching that part, it is only enough to have contact to activate it]
No, you are not mistaken, it is called just like that, but please do not be so abrupt when you talk about the intimate regions of people, when you mention it with that voice of yours, it unbalances my mind quite a bit. Fuuu ... it is a relief that it is any part of the body, that way it has more practicality.
On the other hand, Kurisu's affection has risen quite a lot and she seems to like me. I feel a little guilty knowing her emotions without her knowledge, but I cannot help but feel happy seeing what she feels. While thinking about it, I look into her eyes and talk to her smiling.
"Let's look for an Inn to stay"
"Okay, but where do we start looking?"
"This is one of the main streets of the city, so there must be one in it, it will be probably a little more expensive than looking for one in the suburbs of the city, but as long is not too expensive we can afford it"
While I was talking, we started walking leaving the guild behind. I wanted to get more information from here, but thinking in the atmosphere when we leave I don't want to enter for some time.
Surely because the guild's business was to deal with people traveling, we soon noticed several inns around the area.
We enter a respectable looking one and go straight to the hall. On the other side sitting on a bench was a small girl, her features were a little crowded, rather than being chubby they were the characteristics of a girl about 10 years old. The remarkable thing about her was that in her eyes there was no innocence that should belong to someone according to her physique.
She checked us with her eyes and quickly changed her gestures into a smile, and with a cheerful voice welcomed us to the inn causing the short brown hair to flutter due to her vivacity.
"Welcome to the inn ´Happy dreams ´!! Do you want to book for the night or do you want to go to the bar for a meal?"
"Both, well that depends on the price of the inn services"
"As you two seem nice people, one night, breakfast and dinner for both will only be 750G"
"I honestly don't know if it's a good price"
"Of course it is, I usually charge 500G for the room and 150G for two meals"
So is there a 50G discount? But I didn't mean that, I don't know the standard value of things in this world. Well, whatever, I will took that as a standard and will say that one person needs 1,000G to leave per day, with the belongings that I have now, we can live comfortably for more than 3 months, that is a relief and it takes a weight off my shoulders.
"Well, we'll take the room and the meals"
"That is the best choice of your life! To what name do I register you? "
Taking a logbook she ask us, I have not done anything bad so we don't have to hide our identity, so my name would work.
"Alexander"
"I understand, Alexander"
She repeat my name as she write, I couldn't stand the curiosity anymore and asked the thing that bothered me since I saw her as we entered from the door.
"Excuse me, maybe it's not right to ask this, but, are you human?"
"Of course not, do you think a human kid would attend an inn? I am a hobbit, and by the way I'm 33 years old, married and have 4 children. So if you fell in love with me, I sorry to tell you but I'm no longer available"
"No, I don't have that kind of preference. Doesn't it seem like you were surprised by my name, why?"
"Nn? What do you mean? I don't think it's a strange name"
"That is my name"
"So?"
"And I am a man"
"What is the problem?"
"You really are a good person! Now I am beginning to be jealous of the person who married whit you"
While she had her head tilted in doubt, not understanding why the outburst, I took her hands and said with emotion. Then to make thing clear, while Kurisu takes me by the back and separates us she explains.
"They have been confusing him as a woman all this time, so he is happy that you do not doubt his gender"
"I understand ... as a hobbit I've been through similar things, so I created a habit of not judging things at first sight. Well I'll take you to your room"
With a low jump from the bench she takes the keys under the counter and tells us to follow her. She goes up some stairs to the right side of the reception. We pass the second floor and reach the third in which she opens the second door of the hall and the three of us enter.
"This is your room, that door is the bathroom. The whole Inn counts whit a Crystal system to heat the water, but we only activate it from 9Pm to 10Pm so take advantage of it to bathe. Otherwise it is like a normal inn, keep things of value with you when you leave because we are not responsible for that, and also please leave the key in the reception if you two go out"
She gives us the key at and the same time told us her speech. Great, the inn has hot water to take a bath. She says goodbye and returns to the reception of the inn. When she leaves I look at the room, it seems clean and tidy, and I don't find it expensive for what I pay for it.
When I want to try the bed to see how comfortable it is, I realize that there is only one bed the size for two people ... when I turn to see Kurisu, she is inspecting the room too. I can pretend not to realize it, but don't want to take advantage of it, so I speak.
"It seems she gave us a room with a bed, you want me to talk to the owner and change it for one of two beds or to reserve a room for you?"
When I call her attention with my voice, she looks at me and then on the bed while I inform her. It lasts a few moments and then she turns around so I can't see her face and answers.
"W-we have already slept in the same b-bed ... also, I trust you"
It seems that again I will enjoy her company in the same bed, it's a shame it's not in a sexual way. But it is also good to take things a little calmly and not make our relationship burn too much until it turns to ashes.
"Well, then I want to check all the objects we got from the system and I also have two chests that I haven't opened. Close the door and let's see them."
After she secures the door I take out the two chests, first I take the one that is made of pure wood and open it, by the way I got this chest from the last bandits I took care of. Kurisu quickly returns to my side and sits down to see what objects come out, she seems to like this kind of thing. Well it is exciting to wait to see what you will get, this is something that probably everyone enjoys.
Soon there are three objects in front of us, the two already known [100C] and [1,000G], the third are some kind of lens. I take them and evaluate it.
[Translator Glasses-J
Description: Can identify any character commonly used by people.]
"Glasses?"
"With them anyone can read texts from different types of languages"
"Seriously!!?"
She takes them from me and puts them on, unfortunately there is nothing in this room to check their function. But I must say that she looks pretty with glasses, she already has an intellectual aura about her and they only reinforce it when wearing them.
"I-I'm sorry, I thought it was something interesting so I took them hastily"
"It doesn't matter, they look good on you. Take them, they are yours"
"Really!!?"
"Sure"
"Thanks Alex"
After seeing how happy she looks and how well she look whit them, I would be punished if I took them. Besides, I certainly don't need them and she does. Looking at her taking off and putting on the glasses I take out the other remaining chest, it must have better things since it is of a higher rank.
With the same previous actions the chest opens and this time it produces 4 objects, [500C], [5,000G], [Boots of Shadow Rat-I], [Inspiring Necklace-I]. When I see everything I can only say that today is Kurisu's lucky day, since everything seems to have a better use for her.
[Shadow Rat Fur Boots –I
Skills: [Stealth-I]
Description: Boots created from the skin of the shadow rats which has a good resistance while preserving lightness and flexibility for greater quality. Since the coat of these monsters is adapted for stealthy movement it reduces the user noise when moving.]
They were long black boots to cover up to half the shin, they were covered with a tiny fur almost imperceptible to the eye. They had a beautiful aesthetic, but looked more feminine than for men's use.
[Inspiring Necklace-I
Skills:
Passive1: Increase in vitality (Minimum)
Passive2: Increase in resistance (Minimum)
Description: Necklace in which a small [Life gem] is embedded, provides a small increase in vitality and resistance to the wearer.]
This was a silver necklace that had a medallion whit a small green gem the size of a nail embedded in it. I was honestly tempted to use this, but I decided it was better for Kurisu to have it too.
"I think this is suitable for your use Kurisu, take it"
"Eh? This is for me?"
"Yes, the boots have the stealth skill, they are light and comfortable. But as you can see they are somewhat feminine, as for the collar, it will make you feel more energetic."
" I think you can wear the necklace, right?"
"Take it, I have enough energy. If I saturate my body with more vitality I will have to attack you during the night to free myself from it, hahaha"
"I-Idiot ... you can't do that ... it's still too early to do something like that"
"What did you just say? I didn't hear the last part"
"N-nothing! Thanks for all the things"
She takes the boots, trying them on and walk around the room with them to adapt to their feeling. I help her put on the necklace and ask out of curiosity.
"How you feel?"
"The boots are quite comfortable and when I put on the collar I really felt like waking up after having a good night's sleep, it's very refreshing"
"Well, then I will now check the objects obtained from the last missions"
With that said I take out the [Human Transmutation Scroll], [Summoning scroll Level 1: Monster], [Grimoire (Parchment): The Traveler of the Worlds (Unique)]. The first was a reward for completing the mission to destroy the Goblin settlement, I put it aside because it sounds like something dangerous. The other two were the rewards from just a moment ago from the mission to register in the guild.
[Scroll of Human Transmutation
Description: It allows the transmutation of a human body with a soul level of 1. The individual resulting from this process will have a loyalty of 100 to the person performing the procedure.
Requirements: 100x Crystals, 140gr Sulfur, .12gr Lead,
43Kg Oxygen, 100gr Sodium, .26g Bromine,
16Kg Carbon, .95gr Chlorine, .32gr Strontium,
7Kg Hydrogen, 19gr Magnesium, .68gr Rubidium,
1.8Kg Nitrogen, 4.2gr Iron, 1gr Silicon,
1Kg Calcium, 2.6gr Fluor, 140gr Potassium,
780gr Phosphorus, 2.3gr Zinc, DNA Base for transmutation]
Damn, can I find those materials in sufficient purity here? Isn't it much easier to just make a summoning and avoid all those problems? On the other hand, what comes out of the transmutation won't attack me right?
[Transmutation has its advantages and disadvantages. As you can see, it has many more requirements to perform, its advantage is that you do not need to convince the other party to follow your orders, the system integrates a soul so that the product is totally faithful to you from the beginning.
Its disadvantage is that the transmuted person does not have the innate of original person because they are different souls, although you can solve that problem with your skill [Will of the Worlds].
And about getting the materials in this area, I think that would be difficult. You can get some in specialty shops for alchemists, but the purity may not be very good. You can look for them in other areas later where the technology is more advanced or you have another option, the [Grimoire] you just received will allow you to go to other worlds, choose a similar one from which you came from and get them there]
[Grimoire (Parchment): The Traveler of the Worlds (Unique)
Description: Grimoire created by the entity "Cross" with the power to travel to countless worlds. It has the ability to grow together with its owner and provide new functions in doing so.
Current level: (Parchment)
Next level: (Skin)
Soul Link: (-)]
I take out from the inventory what looked like a great book that is about 50cm long, 30cm wide and about 15cm thick. It had runes on the cover and it gave a feeling of being something very old. When I touch it I receive information inside my head about spilling blood on it to form a link.
Putting the grimoire down on the floor in front of my feet, I take out the knife that has accompanied me since arriving in this world and made a cut in my palm through which the blood comes. I make a fist and place it on the book waiting for the blood to drain and fall into it.
"Alex! What are you doing?!"
"Quiet, I need to shed blood in this book to activate it"
Kurisu looks with concern at my hand from which blood begins to drip. The cover of the book is soaked in this and its color becomes more vivid. I continue shedding blood until it do a sign of activation.
Damn, it's been more than 10 minutes and nothing happens, I had to open and close my hand to prevent the wound from closing, but that has a limit. Damn book, you want me to cut an artery, right? Maybe it's defective...
Having those thoughts, the grimoire suddenly shines and start floating in front of both of us. The light coming from it intensifies until its shape disappears by the strong brightness, then turning into a flash it, it moves all around the room and end taking me as a goal passing through my chest.
"Alex !!"
After Kurisu's scream everything returns to normal, I touch my chest by inertia and everything is fine, I'm not hurt. That scared me for a moment...
"Where did that damn book go?"
With my words there is a flash in my chest and the book appears floating in the air. When we both observe it I feel an emotion of closeness and belonging whit the grimoire. To solve my doubts Aurora intervenes.
[It has been linked with your soul. So it will be a unique object for your use and it will be impossible for someone else to take it, since you can control it with a single thought]
"What happened Alex?"
"It has been integrated into me, it's nothing bad you can relax"
"Are you sure?"
I confirm with a nod to calm her restlessness, I reach out and touch the grimoire. The information on how to use it floods in my head, it seems that to open a portal to another world I need to feed it crystals ... and not a small amount.
Well, it seems that now I can go to other worlds. I will have to think about which one would be more beneficial for both of us and that it meets the conditions to find the materials for the transmutation parchment. That would be easier than having to go to another area for now.
"It seems that we can now travel to other worlds Kurisu"
"Eh?"
