Capítulo 16: Aiden's Maid

Opening the door, Aiden was stunned, seeing a beauty like that knocking on his door.

The person in front of him was wearing a black dress that complimented her perfect figure. Her face was simply stunning, with her brown hair and blue eyes. Her body didn't have too many curves, but she had trained her body for a long time because her muscles were more visible than the ones on Aiden's body. However, looking closely at her face, she didn't seem to be happy to be there.

"Hey, Aiden, anything out of the usual?" The girl in front of him asked with a tone that seemed to contain disdain.

This completely confused Aiden, was he supposed to know her, was she anyone important to him? But he quickly dismissed it because anger seemed to bubble up inside of him once again, looking at this person.

"Hm, no...everything is perfect? But, uh...who are you?" He asked, trying to know more about the girl in front of him.

"You don't remember who I am? Did you lose your memories or what, haha?" The girl said, laughing at Aiden.

"I apologize, but I've been having memory issues lately. Could you remind me who you are?" Aiden replied, making it known he didn't remember much.

"Wow, you truly are useless. You can't even remember the maid who took care of you since you were little." The maid said, looking at Aiden with clear disgust on her face.

"You? You're a maid, how?" Aiden exclaimed, shocked, not understanding why someone who seemed to have trained her entire life would be a simple maid.

"Well, obviously, I'm not a simple maid. I'm a maid of the Nightshade's family, haha!" Emily, the maid, explained with a sense of superiority contained in the tone of her voice.

"So, you're supposed to take care of me, huh? Then why are you laughing at me?" Aiden answered, unhappy with her current attitude toward him.

"It's simple, really; your existence has been a nuisance to me. You were supposed to be talented and gifted, but years after you were born, you were still the same trash as when you were born. Because of that, the family kicked you out and decided to send me here once a week to check up on you." the maid answered back, clearly unhappy with her situation and disgusted with Aiden.

"So, did anything change lately?" Emily, the maid, asked nonchalantly.

Aiden, hearing that she noted the things that changed about him, decided to not tell her about his awakening and decided to keep her in the dark about his current situation.

"No, nothing much. Everything's as usual."

"Then, I guess this is goodbye. I'll come back here in a week," Emily said, as she left the small room which Aiden called home with an evil smile on her face.

"Bye," Aiden said as he frowned, unsure what her deal was.

It seemed that Aiden would have to deal with quite an annoying person once a week from now on. And if she discovered, he awakened and told his family. Aiden wasn't sure what the reaction from his family would be, but he knew he didn't want to go back there ever again.

'That maid isn't even respecting me, and I'm supposed to be her master. Imagine the rest of that family,' He thought, convinced that he would never go back there at any cost.

After she left, Aiden opened his system and saw the same notification as when he had first transmigrated in this body.

[You will be summoned to the Otherworld in three days.]

Realizing he only had three days left before being summoned again, he decided to go outside his room and find a place to buy new equipment because he only had three days to do so. If he wanted to get better results in his second trial, he would need to prepare for it and not be oblivious like in the first one.

However, there was a big problem, Aiden didn't have any money. He only had this small core of the boss monster, and he had no idea of its actual value. Aiden thought that the mace would not get him much money because it didn't look great and would probably be common for most people.

But he didn't change his mind and exited his small room. As he closed the door behind him, he got a look at the new world of which he was now part. It seemed his house was located in the slums because trash could be found everywhere around him.

He could also see some people who looked exactly like him before awakening on the ground. They looked feeble and didn't seem to have any energy to do anything, but when Aiden started to look at them. They all turned their head toward him, and without even speaking he could see that those people suffered even more than him.

Not knowing where to go to buy equipment, he asked one of those guys where he needed to go sell his items.

The man who answered had difficulty speaking, but Aiden was still able to make some sense of his words. It seemed that there was a shop close by that bought items from the Otherworld. But Aiden didn't know if that shop was safe or if he would get attacked. After all, he was currently in the slums. 

Nonetheless, he knew that he could simply beat up anyone coming for his life.

After walking for a couple of minutes in the direction the homeless man had given him, he seemed to have arrived at the shop the man had talked to him about.

Aiden wasn't completely sure if it was the right place because the building looked like it had been abandoned a long time ago. The emblem of the shop on which was written Otherworld Shop was starting to detach itself, almost falling down.

But he still walked in, thinking that maybe the interior of the shop would be way better.

Unsurprisingly, it wasn't anything better. The only thing inside the shop was a single wooden door. No one seemed to be working or living in this place. It was truly abandoned.

Still, having come all this way here, Aiden decided to check what would happen when he opened the door.

The system, which had been silent for a while now, suddenly activated with a message that Aiden had never expected to see.

[You are being teleported to the Underground Otherworld Shop.]

"This old wooden door is a teleportation tool. What the hell?"

Capítulo 17: Underground Otherworld Shop

[You are being teleported to the Underground Otherworld Shop.]

A teleportation device seemed to have been put inside the wooden door he had just opened and transported him to this place that looked nothing like the slums or the building he had taken to come here.

It was bustling with different types of people of other races; with a quick look, Aiden saw a group of dwarfs, an elf, and a vampire; he even saw what seemed to be a human with some parts of a dragon attached to him.

'Is this place in the Otherworld, or are we still in Nova?' Aiden thought, trying to make sense of the situation unfolding before him.

Wanting to get some information about where he was, Aiden started looking around him and saw what seemed to be an information center with an elf seemingly wanting someone to come and ask her some questions.

The elf didn't look that old, but one could never know with the elves. She was quite good-looking and seemed friendly. She had white hair with ears that were pointy, she really looked like an elf one could see in movies.

"Hello, young awakener, what can I do for you today?" the elf asked with a smile.

"Well, to tell you the truth, I kind of got here by accident, and I was wondering if there was any way of telling me what this place is?"

"Oh, you're one of those. Well, it's simple you are in the Underground Otherworld Shop that was created long ago by the four founding families, the Nightshade, the Emberbane, the Ravenwood, and the Moonshadow. They have created this space to help young awakeners like yourself to sell the items they gain in the Otherworld."

"Oh ok, is this place in the Otherworld or are we still in the real world?" Aiden asked to make sure.

"If by the real world you mean Nova, our planet. Then yes, we are still in the real world; you didn't get teleported to the Otherworld where your trials take place. Don't worry."

"If we're not in the Otherworld, then how were we teleported here?"

"Who knows? It's a secret closely guarded by the four families to impede others from creating spaces like this everywhere."

"Oh ok, then that's all I had to ask. Bye," Aiden said as he turned around, not interested in hearing more about the founding families.

But as he was leaving, he suddenly turned around, looking as if he had forgotten something.

"Actually, where could I sell this?" He asked, as he wasn't sure what he could do with them. He didn't know this place, after all.

"Wow, you got a core from a boss monster. Well, the experts in that field aren't that far away from here, go in a straight line on your left and you will find the shop. It's called Core Expert. As for your mace, it seems to be only of Basic Tier, which probably won't amount to much, but there are people who buy scrap items around here. Just go in any type of shop and they will give a price for it."

She seemed surprised that the boy in front of her had a core monster. But she thought it was given to him by his family as support. She didn't believe the feeble boy in front of her could have killed a boss monster in a trial since it's so hard to do, even for people who train their whole lives.

"And also, do you know of a place where I could buy a dagger? You see, I'm trying to equip myself as best as possible before doing my second trial."

"Oh, it's no problem. Ask as many questions as you want. Usually, I'm bored out of my mind since most people know this place from the inside out." The elf said, looking desperate for some clients

"Then, to answer your question, the most renowned shop that sells weapons around here is a shop that is managed by one of the four founding families, the Ravenwood. The Ravenwood family is known for their blacksmiths and the quality of their equipment. You should be able to find what you want there. They have all types of weapons for any price. Did you want to know anything else?"

"No, actually I think I'm good, I should probably go. Thank you once again for your help!"

When Aiden turned around, the elf at the counter made a subtle move, seemingly calling someone to take her place.

It seemed she wasn't as ordinary as Aiden thought. Aiden managed to get some of her curiosity about wanting to learn more about the young man she had met for the first time.

The reason for her curiosity about Aiden was because of the items Aiden had shown her, if he was powerful enough to kill a boss monster on the first trial then it was worth it to look into him. Also, having a good relationship with a young awakened was always good.

She started running behind at a speed that was way too fast for the naked eye to see.

"Since you look kind of lost even with the information I gave, do you want me to accompany you? I could tell you if some of the merchants are trying to rip you off. My name is Maelis by the way. Nice to meet you!" The elf said as she extended her hand to Aiden.

"Uh... the name's Aiden." Aiden shook her hand back. "But, are you sure you want to accompany me? Wouldn't that be a waste of your time?"

"Oh that's fine, I actually don't do much besides working here. And with me being with you, nobody will try to steal from you, and don't you worry... even if I don't look like the strongest, I can defend myself quite well." Maelis said with a big smile.

"Then I guess you can accompany me if you want."

"Perfect! Where do you want to go first?"

"Well, I don't really have money, so I'm hoping to exchange this core for some money, and then I'll go buy my dagger with the money I got."

After deciding what he wanted to do, Aiden headed straight left toward the shop known as Core Expert, where he would exchange his core for money.

Five minutes later, they arrived in front of the shop and it was magnificent, it didn't look anything like the shop he had found in the slums. It was crazy. All types of people were entering and leaving the building very fast.

Some of them were emitting a dangerous aura which meant that they were strong, he couldn't wait to see the strength of the ones who managed this shop.
