Sila left the branch of the Blue Pigeon information guild feeling disappointed. He had thought that being an information guild, it would be more reliable. He was still unaware that his actions had greatly affected the life of Bluebird, the vice-leader of the Blue Pigeon information guild.
Sila had nothing to do while waiting for Burapha to contact him back. He wasnt sure how long he would have to wait for Burapha to co online. Hence, he decided to release Bow and Lookhin.
Release Lookhin. Release Bow.
A brown light flashed out of the ring. Lookhin flew around the air before resting on Silas shoulder. anwhile, a pink light flashed onto the ground. A pink sli appeared after the flash and was looking around.
Big Brother Sila, is this the outside world? Bow asked, Its so bright.
Yes. The outside world is bright like this. Youll get used to it in no ti.
The outside world is so big. Its hard for to see.
Sila put Bow onto his head. Bow was light so it wasnt a problem. He felt like he was wearing a hat.
You can see many things this way, right? Sila said.
We better go around the town, Big Brother Sila.
Sila nodded prior to walking toward the market square. During his walk, Sila noticed that many people were looking at him. But he didnt care. News of him was bound to spread all over Monster Soul. It wasnt strange that so players might recognize him.
Sila was shopping around the market, which Bow was very energetic about. She was interested in many things and told Sila to stop at a shop that sells hair ribbons.
How much is this ribbon? Sila asked the rchant girl.
500 silver coins, sir, She answered while looking at Silas hair without blinking.
Here is it. The money.
Sila handed over silver coins. The rchant girl took it. She was still looking at Silas head though.
Sila put the hair ribbon onto Bow. Do you like it, Bow? Take it as a gift to celebrate you getting out of the Sli Kingdom.
Thank you, Big Brother Sila, Bow replied, causing the rchant girl to widen her eyes.
We better find sothing to eat. Im quite hungry, Sila told Bow. Both of them went to the largest restaurant in the city.
Once Sila had gone, the rchant girl muttered by herself. That thing can talk?
The news about the talking pink creature began to spread.
***
Sila arrived at the largest restaurant in the city. It was his first al on the Main Continent so he wanted it to be morable. He also used this chance to introduce Bow to so good food.
Welco! Welco to Lockhearts restaurant. May I ask how many of you will be eating? The waiter ca and greeted Sila.
Sila was hesitating for a while. Lookhin shouldnt be counted, right? But how about Bow?
Finally, he answered. Two people, please.
Please co this way, sir. There are the seats next to the window on the second floor. You can enjoy the good view of the sea there.
What is the sea, Big Brother Sila? Bow asked.
Umm. It is a very big well with water being salty, I guess? Sila himself wasnt sure about his explanation. How could he describe the ocean or the sea?
I want to see it.
You will see it soon. No, Ill even take you there in an upcoming day, Sila said. He had business at Underwater Palace anyway.
Really? Bow smiled happily.
Of course. Well, its ti to eat first, Sila followed the waiter inside.
Once he had arrived at his seat, Bow jumped and landed herself on the table. She was looking at the sea with sparkling eyes.
Sila decided to not interrupt her. He ordered many dishes and started to eat once the foods arrived. The foods here were very delicious.
The best food he had had was still a al at Mansion of Seven Deadly Sins though.
Bow tried out every dish. Sila was surprised. He had deliberately ordered more food than necessary to keep so of it in his bento but Bow was able to finish it all. The amount of food she had eaten was obviously larger than her small size. It was a wonder.
Big Brother Sila, it is rude to stare at a lady while she is eating, you know? Bow pouted.
Ermm. Im just curious. It seems Bow has a very big appetite.
Appetite? It isnt like that. We sli can eat however much we want. The amount of food doesn't matter. I just saw that there was a lot of food left so I finished it.
Sila nodded at Bows answer. He was thinking to himself that he needed to order less food next ti.
The system sound alerted at that ti.
Player Sila is being contacted by Player Burapha.
Sila was happy to hear the notification. He quickly opened his system window. An image of Burapha appeared on Silas screen.
Hello, Big Brother Sila. Where have you been for many days? Big Sis Varee and I have been searching for you, Burapha asked.
I have been in the Sli Kingdom, Sila replied.
Sli Kingdom?
Sila just realized that he had never ntioned to Burapha that he was sli race. Im a sli-race player. I went there to obtain the racial skills.
Youre a sli-race player, Big Bro? Did I hear wrongly? You an those slis around Beginning Town?
Yes. Those slis, Sila replied, causing Burapha to beco silent for a while.
Sotis I feel like I cant understand your action at all, Big Bro. You have a ton of rare cards like rpeople Cards. But youre playing as the weakest sli race?
As Bow had heard the words weakest sli race, she disputed, Slis arent weak!!
Burapha didnt see Bow, so he asked. Who was that, big bro?
Sila put Bow onto his hand and showed her to the screen.
Wow. Big Bro. What is that? Its cute.
A sli, Sila replied.
A sli? Burapha stopped for a mont before continuing. Oh, so this is its real form.
Real form? This ti was Silas turn to be curious.
Yes, Big Bro. Many monsters in the ga usually dont show their real form to us. The real form is only visible to the player of that race, or by being a pet or a partner with a player. For example, have you ever seen a rmaid? Burapha explained.
Sila nodded. He had seen them in the event at Beginning Island.
Then look at this release Lala, Burapha said.
There was a beautiful woman appearing beside Burapha.
This is Lala. She is my partner. I was surprised when I heard that people who choose rperson as their race get a partner once one passes the racial ordeal. I guess it must be due to the fact that jewelry production is impossible to perform alone. So, the system prepares a partner for players who select this race.
Sila was starting to feel jealous of Burapha. No, he wasnt jealous of Burapha getting a partner. He was just comparing Buraphas case to himself. The sli skills were very hard to obtain. Plus, once he had gotten them, he had to undergo the hellish practice with the Sli King.
If it wasnt for the fact that he was training at Cliff of Heroes, Silas level wouldve dropped. The training was so difficult that he had died twice.
I see, Sila replied.
About the jewelry that you asked to make, I have already finished it. But as I couldnt contact you, and big sis Varee is too far away, Im going to give it to you directly.
Thats good. But the reason I contacted you isnt about this.
What is it, then?
Can you stay underwater? Sila asked.
Of course, Big Bro. Im a rperson. I can stay underwater for an entire day.
Then, do you have the skill to allow to stay underwater?
I have. But you cant stay for long. Only about half an hour or so. Why do you want to stay underwater, Big Bro?
Sila was glad that he could stay underwater for half an hour. I would like to go to the Underwater Palace.
The Underwater Palace? Why dont you just wait for it to float up?
Im in urgent need of the Qi of Little Turtles skill book, Sila replied.
Burapha fell silent for a mont. He couldnt understand why Sila was so hurried as they didnt know each other that much. But based on the last ti they had t, Burapha could see that Sila was a good man.
As Burapha also wanted to return the favor of receiving rpeople Cards, he didnt ask for the reason behind Silas urgency.
Okay, Big Bro. I will help. Where are you right now?
Lockheart City.
Good. Im currently on the ship going to Lockheart City. It will dock at the port tomorrow evening. In this case, lets et in the city. I will contact you once I arrive there. Burapha said.
Okay. See you tomorrow. Sila was about to end the conversation.
Wait for a mont, Big Bro. I have sothing to warn you about.
What is it, Burapha?
Its about your pink sli. What is its na again?
My na is Bow, Bow replied as she heard the other party asking for her na.
Yes. About Bow. I personally think that it would be the best if Big Bro doesnt let her go outside while youre in the city.
Why? Sila wondered. As Bow had only been in the Sli Kingdom, he wanted her to experience new sceneries.
Because this place is Monster Soul. If were in another ga, there would be several rules to prevent players to perform evil deeds otherwise players would be punished. But Monster Soul is a world without any rules. The system only provides users with basic conveniences but doesnt butt in no matter what players do. It is this gas charm while its also what makes this ga dangerous. Players can do whatever they want. Well, there were rules that were created by the majority of players, but there are far too many who dont follow those rules.
Sila had heard about this from Divine. Monster Soul is a lawless virtual reality.
Whats the problem? How is it related to Bow? Sila asked.
The problem is; Big Bro has a cute sli that can talk. As Im a rchant, I know very well that this kind of product would sell at a ridiculously high price. There are many people who would pay millions to make themselves stand out. Owning a unique pet is one way to do so. There will definitely be soone who would succumb to this greed and want to snatch Bow from you.
Im not a pet, Bow said.
Yes, and Bow is also not a product, Sila expressionlessly said.
I understand, Big Brother. But not everyone is like Big Bro or myself. They might think differently and this could easily make you enemies, Burapha explained.
Sila was now suppressing his anger. He wasnt angry at Burapha, he was angry at the fact that the world was filled with evil people. The people who snatch other peoples possessions. The people who exploit others. The people who would completely ignore others pain just for the sake of obtaining sothing they selfishly want.
Sila couldnt help but think about Montra. Disregarding the pain of other people just for the sake of his personal gain.
Burapha kept his mouth shut as he didnt know what Sila was thinking. The silence continued until a loud voice broke out.
There were loud voices on the first floor of the restaurant. The previous waiter ca at Sila.
Mister Custor, were terribly sorry. There are people looking for you. May we ask for you to pay the bill now? Dont worry, sir, we will guide you to the exit at the backdoor, The waiter politely suggested.
Do you know why theyre looking for ? Sila asked with an expressionless face.
The waiter looked at Bow and softly said. They ask mister custor to hand them your pet, or else erm
Or else? Sila asked.
Or else they will kill you The backdoor exit is this way, sir, I will personally guide you there, The waiter replied.
Sila handed his credit card to the waiter prior to talking to Burapha. See you tomorrow, Burapha. Contact when youre here.
Okay, Big Bro. Please be careful, Burapha said. He didnt dare to imagine what kind of fate is waiting for those people who made Sila angry.
Sila stood up. Bow jumped onto his head while Lookhin rested its claws on Silas right shoulder. Its eyes were shone with greenish light. With Mind Connection, once Sila was angry, it would beco angry too.
Sila went to the first floor. The waiter imdiately tried to stop him. Mister Custor! That way leads to the front door, sir! But Sila didnt mind him and walked outside.
Now Sila understood what problem the Sli King had ntioned about bringing Bow to the outside world. But Sila didnt care anymore. He already had so many enemies. Making one or two more groups into his enemies wouldnt make a difference.
Finally, Sila was outside. Surrounding him was a group of twenty fully-ard players.
