Bab 16: 16 Contract*
[Lucy's POV: ]
A bright silver light escaped the box, and we heard the messages.
[You have received: 4000 Oz.]
[You have received: 4 Mana stones.]
[You have received: 40 Skill points.]
It wasn't something big and we can even call this an unlucky one considering the goods of the silver box that we knew about.
Thankfully, this was from her box as she was a tad bit faster than me, and just after hers, mine echoed too.
[You have received: 6000 Oz.]
[You have received: 2 Mana stones.]
[You have received: 1 Silver plaque.]
[You have received: 39 Skill points.]
"Holy Moly Lucy~! You really are something else!" she exclaimed as she looked at the round crystal disc in my vibrating hand.
Even I couldn't believe this one right now.
Luck was something that didn't apply to things often, but maybe... I really was lucky.
'Really lucky…'
<Redeem Plaque>
A special item that one could only receive through system gifts with a minuscule possibility.
This was something that one could only get once in a three-hundred box statistically.
And each type of reward box had its special ranked plaque.
This thing was a free ticket to anything of the corresponding rank so its value was far more than many things in this whole worldline!
Though the system only had Oz as its principal currency, these plaques were something that could be used in place of it.
The reward boxes of the system according to her design was: Normal< Wooden < Metal < Silver < Gold < Purple < Rainbow.
Those rankings were something that was the same in the whole of the worldline.
Golden reward boxes were the highest level of the box one can get as a mortal as the other two were something that held strength far beyond normal human understanding.
And all of them had these plaques.
If we say <Normal> plaque is around 6000 Oz then, <Wooden> would be 12000, <Metal> would be 18000, <Silver> would be 21000, <Golden> would be 90000, <Purple> would be 1,20,000 and lastly <Rainbow> would be...
Well, that is something too rare to get our hands on.
And on top of them, purple and rainbow had the highest probability of having these plaques.
In the system shop accessed through a dimensional merchant, one can redeem special things with these plaques that Oz can't purchase.
"Kyahahaha~!"
It was something so precious that we were just that much happy to get one.
El hugged me, took the silver crystal plaque, and stored it in her special space.
We... I was lucky this time.
A smirk appeared on my face as I looked at her smiling face.
"Hehehe..." I chucked, and she tightened her grip on my neck with 'excitement', almost choking me.
This sister of mine was jealous I got something better than hers and though it was ultimately ours, the fact that I was the one to get it was undoubtedly unsettling for her.
She won't say it, but she was just like this.
She didn't pick fights often but she would never back down from competition, and... she believed in crushing the opponent thoroughly.
And I was that one oddball that she couldn't win against in many places.
We were each other's weaknesses and strengths, so we handled others perfectly.
"Khum! El?"
She continued to choke me, but thankfully I was lucky today.
"All done," she whispered with a super serious face, definitely telling me to not smirk like before again.
"Yes," I answered in the same low voice and washed away the fun from a moment ago.
We had prepared everything, and there was only one last thing left.
Our reincarnation in this game was just a pastime all this time, but now... we will have to start the real things.
"But..." she suddenly sat down on the bed and patted her lap.
"Drink this and take a small nap," she said and threw a red potion bottle at me with another sudden worried expression.
This potion was something I received previously after creating my third skill so I knew what she meant by these actions.
A recovery potion that restored HP in-game and overall body in this world.
She knew there would be some small internal injuries to my body after coming out of that heated state even if I tried to hide them. She knew me too well for something small like this thing.
'Why did she know me this well?'
She was such a headache.
"Don't mind if I do." And I loved this headache more than anything.
I needed some time to recover anyway, so I laid down with my head on her soft legs.
She felt warm and safe on my lap and felt alive in hers…
***
Slowly opening my eyes, I looked at my dozing Auriel.
Even though I was on her lap, she was asleep while sitting in her previous position.
'Gorgeous as ever, hun?'
Her long eyelashes and pure white hair were something that reminded me of endless snow fields.
She was amazing even when she was sleeping, and I just stared at her with a warm smile, not warm enough to melt this snowball before me.
Though we had to hurry and kill that pig, there was still time to steal some moments like this.
So time passed slowly, and the sky visible from the window on the other side was starting to turn on the lights.
The night was coming to an end, and her eyes were moving in response to these transitioning changes.
"Mmmm..." she moaned and gently opened her eyes.
"Good morning sleeping beauty." I greeted her with a smile and caressed her lips.
She was rarely cute, and whenever she was actually cute like right now, she was unbearably adorable.
My heart was jumping in excitement and ordering me to give this fairy a good morning kiss right this instance but I had no choice but to calm those raging desires down.
Well, that unique warm thing will have to wait from my side, but I wasn't the only one to think about these things right now.
I was looking at her pretty morning face and she was also looking right into my eyes, her ruby-red eyes filled with the same thirst as mine.
She also knew the rules and the consequences of breaking them but unlike me who totally restricted myself from doing anything, this little one found the loopholes in any elaborate things she came across.
So this time too, she only partially held back, lifted my hand, took my fingers in her mouth, and started sucking them with a delighted expression.
This was the same thing as I remembered from back then.
She liked sucking, and I was no one to complain here as I, too, loved sucking.
She was better than me in that though, and we both knew that.
(I didn't write these past three lines.)
She continued her amazing sucking, and I enjoyed it delightfully. So much so that I wanted to do her the same.
(Or this.)
Our minds would shatter at some point, and we were already ready for that.
That was the very reason we had set a limit of 18 years so that we would at least hold on until we got into the academy.
We were already adults on the inside and people were already adults at 15 in this world.
Well, there was no need to not do it right now anyway. We were just looking at the bigger picture.
There was a place we could only enter if we were 'virgins' during academy entrance exams and we had to go there at all costs.
It was a hidden piece that had never been discovered, and not even the heroes would discover it in this world or era.
It was my personal find that even surprised her, as it was the creation of the AI-brain.
It was a place we both can get another authority, so it was that much more important.
We will use authorities in the middle parts of the game, so there will be no actual use for them right now but if I had to call these 'authorities' something other than their normal name, I would call it the ultimate power.
So, this was something that was more the merrier.
"Hmmm~!" With a deep suck, she let go of my hand and... threw me to the ground.
"Ouch!" I shrieked and stood up while patting my head.
It was my mistake to think she would let me get off as gently as she invited me into her lap. I should have been prepared for a deadly wound after that 'good morning' actually.
It was just like her, so there was no actual need for an explanation for her behavior and she had an actual serious work look so I knew it was time for the main thing.
"Let's start," she announced and took out the contract scroll that we got when we used the golden roulette for the first time…
