章節 42: A Strange Store: Part V
Yuichi quickly inspected all the available options.
Sliding his finger across the smooth paper, it was accurate to say that it looked more like a modern tablet than a paper itself.
He soon understood what the equivalents were in this star system employed by the Whisperers.
He understood how valuable a nine-star object was, he could only think how generous the Whisperers were.
A nine star object is so valuable or had the power of an entire Galactic Cumulus, it was overwhelming, too godly!
However, that was the lowest value an object of that category could have.
There were many objects labeled with nine stars on the list, breathing a breath of cold air, Yuichi reevaluated his opinion of the leader of the Whisperers.
Did she receive a blessing from Lady Luck?
Yuichi was suspicious, given that the woman knew Lady Luck and could deduce that she was her staunchly loyal follower, even knew Lady Luck's somewhat peculiar side, it wouldn't be a surprise if she had a blessing from Lady Luck for all her years of service.
Those thoughts aside, his mood calmed after seeing the requirements for use.
Most nine-star items required the owner to have a minimum strength of six stars.
Weapons had even higher requirements, eight star power minimum.
His mood cooled, but he didn't lose his smile, even though he only had two stars of power it wouldn't be long before he reached that level.
Yuichi immediately activated META-Luck, it was the best guide he could have at the moment.
His hands moved at a faster pace, suddenly they stopped on a series of numbers.
They were coordinates of a place called: [Eternal Abyss] - Pinnacle of 9 stars.
"..."
Just knowing its name alone could tell that it was an extremely dangerous place for the current Yuichi.
Before he could continue searching for interesting things, a distinctive sound reached his ears.
The echoing of soft footsteps that were intended not to disturb the peace of a superior figure, Yuichi could deduce who it was.
At the same time, the woman in a servant's outfit bowed in farewell and disappeared.
Yuichi was seated in front of the palace doors, given the position of his seat, he looked like a top ruler responding to a request for an audience from some unimportant subject.
The doors opened and a figure showed her presence.
Her elegant aura could not be hidden, even if she tried to downplay her presence.
At first glance she looked like a human woman, an extremely beautiful woman wrapped in Yukata with butterfly patterns, her brown hair was extremely long and even touched the floor.
Her beautiful face was decorated by her straight nose, her pink lips were small, while her bangs that parted in the middle tried to hide her eyes, failing miserably.
Her skin looked like extremely fragile porcelain, but her fragility was an illusion.
She loved butterflies, or so it seemed.
There was a butterfly with gold and blue patterns perched on her left eye, flapping its thin wings slowly.
Yes... she was definitely crazy.
Her gray eyes with deep black pupils screamed it out.
Her tired look seemed perpetual, even as her eyes lit up at the sight of her beloved and longed-for Lady Supreme Luck (Yuichi).
Yuichi sighed... as he held the paper, this woman was terrifying and her presence almost made him faint.
On the other hand...
The woman wanted to jump with excitement but that would upset her precious "Master", even though Lady Luck had never accepted her that way, ever.
The coin in her hand was a precious symbol and she would never confuse, it was a secret that only belonged to her and her "Master", at least she thought so.
Even her aura is the same... but... she looks a little weird....
META-Luck could fool her in 99%... but a madwoman with dominant force especially obsessed with Lady Luck could notice the small differences.
Slowly the woman shook her head.
After all, it's been a long time... it's normal for her to change a little after her "death"... the woman thought with deep sadness about those years.
But she slowly shook her head, the past could not be changed.
She approached submissively step by step, even measuring the correct distance of each of her steps.
When she was some distance away, not too far and not too close, she performed a Dogeza.
"Lady Supreme Luck... I, Beth, pay my respects, congratulations on your resurrection," the woman this time couldn't hide the blush on her face even if she pressed her forehead against the ground, the emotion of so many repressed years almost drove her crazy with euphoria.
"...," Yuichi had noticed the small doubt in her eyes so he had to squeeze META-Luck, it was very convenient.
Yuichi was speechless, now he understood why the Whisperers had that bad habit.
If their leader was like that, it was only normal for the rest to play along. Although it was an embarrassing spectacle it was very beautiful to look at.
Wait!
What's this about resurrection?
Even the incarnation of luck can die?
Or did Lady Luck just fake her death?
Either option was troubling to him.
...
"Beth... raise your head," Yuichi copied Lady Luck's arrogant voice, while calming his doubts.
He pushed his luck and acted as arrogant as possible, almost talking down to the woman.
"Aiii... What are your orders, Lady Supreme Luck? I will do everything at my disposal to satisfy you," a slightly crooked smile was drawn on her face as she trembled with excitement.
Very few times, Lady Luck had said her name, every time she did, Beth couldn't stop smiling for hundreds of years.
She seemed like a faithful wife, extremely faithful but simple-minded.
This made him shiver a little.
Beth seemed particularly excited when "Lady Luck" talked down to her.
I'm sorry... but I have to take advantage....
The woman looked a bit silly, even so Yuichi didn't try to push his luck too much for the time being.
Even though Lady Luck would be back in a year and he could pass the problems on to her, he didn't want too much trouble with this crazy woman.
...
..
.
Yuichi nodded, satisfied with his harvest.
After squeezing the juicy fruit called Beth, he returned home.
Alfheim waited.
