Chapter 13: Provision For A Disciple
Chapter 13: Provision For A Disciple
Elysia glanced at Harold before turning around and walked lightly as if she were about to leave from there.
"The Goddess, please wait a moment."
Harold exclaimed as he approached Elysia who was leaving after appearing to be looking for something, it seemed that now he wanted to ask for something more.
"Yes. Is there anything?" Elysia who hasn't gone far asked kindly with a smile after stopping her steps and turning around, but in her mind began to worry about the various possibilities.
'Is he aware of something? I think my role is perfect... Calm yourself, Ely. You will be fine. Just don't think too much.'
Harold returned to a distance of 5 meters from Elysia. "I apologize once again because I feel I have crossed my limits, but can you help me once again by finding this dagger? I will do anything for that."
He took out a portrait of the dagger and gave it to Elysia using his magic, and Elysia accepted it and saw the portrait.
'So, this dagger... Heritage Dagger Reinhard, maybe it's a weapon that symbolizes the lineage of the successor to nobility? Should I return it?'
Elysia murmured in her mind. It was the strongest weapon she had, she didn't feel safe if she turned it back too.
'No Ely, that's not the right thing. You have to return it. Instead, you can ask for something else.' Elysia persuaded and convinced herself in her mind and started a scheme to take advantage of this situation.
"It is not impossible for me to look for it." Elysia spoke lightly as though it was no big deal.
Harold felt rather relieved to hear that. After the bad news before, maybe this is the only good news today.
The dagger is a family inheritance given from generation to generation as proof of nobility held by the head of the family or the successor of the family, it just so happens that Orlando has been named the successor of the family to bring the dagger.
"But why should I do it? I've helped you more than enough."
Hearing the rest of Elysia's words made Harold feel like his high expectations had been brought down to the ground.
"I'm begging you, it means a lot to my family. That dagger symbolizes our noble status. If the dagger is gone then we will be in a difficult situation. Please say whatever I can do so you want to find it looking for it."
Harold began to beg. In the nobility of the human race, it is fatal for them if they lose the heritage of their status symbol, and if the heritage falls into the hands of irresponsible people they will get more complicated problems.
Besides the name that will be tainted because they cannot maintain their own heritage, many other complicated things in politics will follow afterward.
"Hmm... I don't need anything from you... I am looking for those you are looking for based on the previous portraits from scattered places because you told me a lot of things. But if I help you again, what can you do so my efforts will not be in vain?"
Elysia seemed to be thinking while putting one hand on her cheek and saying it in her pleasant voice, Harold was increasingly worried from every word that was said by her.
"Ah! That's right! I came with my disciple. Harold Reinhard, I plan to leave her to practice in this world. Can you help me prepare the things needed for her?"
Elysia clapped her hands cheerfully as if remembering something, her little play still continuing.
Disciple from the new Goddess who just came to this world, she definitely needs money and special equipment along with other guidelines.
Harold understood what the Goddess meant and immediately took out a bag from his [Space Bag] before giving it to her with his magic. Even until now he did not dare approach her.
"I hope this is enough as a provision for your disciple to travel in this world."
Elysia accepted the bag cheerfully that her little trick had worked before checking the contents of the bag using her awareness, though still putting on a friendly face, did not show much.
Inside the bag turned out to be a mini [Space Bag] with a size of 1 meter on each side. There contained some food and drinks, 1000 sparkling metal coins, 5000 gold coins, 10000 silver coins, 50000 bronze coins, several weapons along with armor, as well as several guidebooks.
But Elysia does not understand the currency here and is afraid to be cheated later. After checking the pouch she was holding with her magic without opening it, then she looked at Harold again.
"What is the value of the currency in this world? What should I explain about the contents of this bag to my disciple later?"
Harold had predicted this and murmured as if 'The Goddess also needed an explanation for her disciple first before giving a travel stock.' before answering it.
"There are 1000 platinum coins, 5000 gold coins, 10000 silver coins, and 50000 bronze coins, a value that is more than enough to live in luxury in this world for several years. The value of 1 platinum coin is equal to 100 gold coins, 1 gold coin is equal to 100 silver coins, and 1 silver coin equals 100 bronze coins."
Harold took a deep breath and continued his explanation.
"Then there are food and drinks for a few months, various self-defense weapons, women's armor, and guidance on the Human Continent."
Elysia became very carefree in her mind and tried to look at the guidebook using her consciousness. Strangely even though she knew it wasn't written in English, she knew what was written there.
"Um. Since you helped me prepare provisions for my disciple, then I will help you once more."
Elysia returned the portrait of the dagger to Harold and began the mock quest as before and took out the intended dagger.
The dagger appeared still in bloodstains on all sides because Elysia used it to plug it into the heart of the previous Spirit Beast.
Harold looked at the bloody dagger with full meaning and thought, it seemed he was sure a battle had taken place that even Orlando was forced to use this level 50 magic dagger.
"Now it's finished. Then have a nice day, Harold Reinhard."
Elysia said goodbye while trying to make her body invisible and disguised her 'energy aura' to try whether the magic with her imagination worked or not for this. If that doesn't work and Harold is still aware of her, she just has to walk away.
Harold immediately returned from his train of thought and looked towards Elysia who had disappeared. He looked left and right as if he was looking for something, even with his eyes strengthened by magic, he could not find anything as if he had never met a Goddess who had helped him before.
After that, Harold gave a bow of respect to Elysia who had disappeared and returned to his troops who were waiting on standby before transporting all the bodies that lay with his troops.
They must pay their last respects to those who have fallen, and Harold must still report this incident to the Emperor of the Cuttexus Kingdom, his home kingdom.
Elysia who was still standing in the same position stared blankly at the whole incident. She did not feel anything else after seeing many corpses, she could think clearly even though she was afraid and worried after being stranded in this magical world without cause and information.
After a few moments had passed and the entire Harold group had left the location, Elysia returned to where she had sat before then she curled up and hugged her legs.
'What is God? Am I a Goddess? Harold and Sylvia say that only God has golden energy aura, but my status is still an Apprentice Mage. I was lucky and survived just because of this misunderstanding.'
Elysia murmured blankly before seeing her status.
[| Lv. 21 | Apprentice Mage | Elysia Avery | Female (16) | HP: 4,500 / 4,500 | EP: 4,500 / - |]
'Eh? This time I have something different in my status... What is [HP]? Health Point, maybe, the value is also the same as before... And the last is [EP]? Energy Point, maybe, why is the limit like this?' After seeing their different status, Elysia began to analyze this.
'Ah... I'll do an experiment for that later. Now I need to rest. I envy Sister Elena who is still asleep in [Soul Realm]...'
Elysia left from there before going to the branches of a large tall tree to rest. Tonight has passed very long for her.
