After the Arachnid Queen fight, Nakros stored the corpse into sothing similar to my |Item Box|. We then exited the mineshaft and took our ti tending to my wounds and cleaning ourselves up.
"Do you want to use magic to heal you?" [Nakros]
"Why do you ask? Is there a side-effect?" [Solace]
"There are so instances where you may get a fever or sothing similar to a sickness. The most popular theory on this is that the receiver's body cannot withstand the regeneration." [Nakros]
Hearing that, it probably had sothing to do with overworking the immune system. This also ant that I had nothing to worry about since |ntal Fortitude| gives immunity to sickness. ...Sohow.
"I'll take the healing magic." [Solace]
"Have your way." [Nakros]
He aid a hand at then proceeded to mumble sothing.
"Grant this child your holy favor, |Middle Cure|." [Nakros]
A golden insignia appeared beneath . This one was a bit different from the last healing magic used on , but it definitely did the job as I saw my bruises and cuts vanish.
"That about does it. Now why don't you get yourself cleaned up?" [Nakros]
I looked down at myself upon seeing Nakros look up and down.
"Ah." [Solace]
My only outfit was covered and soaked in blood. It was the uniform of Fina's school so I didn't care much since... Well... It was a school uniform. However, it was the only article of clothing I had.
"Nakros, do you mind doing a favor?" [Solace]
Nakros gave a questionable look.
"For?" [Nakros]
"You see... This clothing is all I have... Do you have any spares by any chance?" [Solace]
Nakros raised a finger.
"Wait a sec." [Nakros]
He clawed at the air, forcing open a rift. He then peeked inside and pulled out a blue rock.
"...What is that?" [Solace]
"Spatial ore. I'll turn this into clothing for you." [Nakros]
He then crushed it in between his palms and inhaled deeply before blowing fire into it.
("I didn't know humans could do that.") [Solace]
Is what I thought until I rembered that this guy had coral-like horns sticking out of his forehead.
"|Consolidate|." [Nakros]
He opened his hands to reveal a lted pool of blue. Steam seed to pour out of it, but that didn't stop Nakros from grabbing it and pulling it like noodles.
"|Weave|." [Nakros]
The Blue puddle soon turned into string. The string soon turned into a clothlike substance. The clothlike substance then turned into a new article of clothing.
"There we go. How do you like it?" [Nakros]
I stood there in awe at the clothes. It looked to be a completely different set of clothing than my original. There were pants, socks, a shirt, a cloak, and a scarf. To be honest, I thought it was a bit overkill.
"It... Looks good." [Solace]
"You don't look very happy about it though." [Nakros]
"No no! I really do like it!" [Solace]
I took the clothes and proceeded to use |Wardrobe| to wear it in an instant.
"So? Does it fit?" [Solace]
Nakros looked up and down before nodding to himself.
"Not bad. Maybe if I had better materials..." [Nakros]
He seed to get deep into thought before snapping back to reality.
"Uh oh. Gotta go. See you later, junior disciple." [Nakros]
With a wave, he vanished into a puddle of shadows.
"...Again?" [Solace]
Seeing his reaction, I felt that Lapis was probably nearby.
("She did ntion that Nakros was her bounty target.") [Solace]
Either way, I decided to stay out of it.
("Now that I've explored the Orinda mines, I think I only have to visit the dwin house.") [Solace]
I checked the map Master gave , which made quite happy to see that the manor wasn't too far.
("It looks like a ten minute flight.") [Solace]
Knowing that, I headed straight to the manor.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
As per my calculations, I was right. It took about ten minutes for the manor to co into view.
("As much as I hate to say it, the manor does look good.") [Solace]
It looked sothing like how a roman building would be built. It was fully made of white stone, probably marble, and had the most random things laced with gold. They also had a bunch of flags and shields holding an image of a roaring lion as well. It was most likely their coat of arms so would say.
("Should I enter as a human or a spirit?") [Solace]
There was a black tal gate at the front, connected to a white stone wall that encompassed the entire property. Of course, there were a ton of guards patrolling and stationed here and there. The real question was whether or not to go stealthy.
("For a spirit, I could learn a few things by sneaking in. On the other hand, I could probably get to know the people better by going in as a human.") [Solace]
Then it hit . No, not a literal strike as per usual. I had an idea. Strange, right? not getting beaten to a pulp every ten seconds.
("Why don't I just do both?") [Solace]
