17 Chapter 17

"As I was raised by my Master in the mountains there are some things which I am not that clear about, it may be things which may feel like common sense to you. So Roxanne I will have to rely on you to teach me about them"

"Yes"

"Later, we will enter the Labyrinth together. Roxanne I will rely on you then"

"Yes, I think I can be useful in battle. Please leave it to me"

As soon as I talked about entering the labyrinth, Roxanne's eyes started to shine mysteriously. Her whole demeanor changed, it must be because she was that confident in her abilities. Well I don't doubt that, she can even beat me easily if she wanted.

Honestly I am sure that I will be fine in the labyrinth, in some part it's because of my system but mostly it's because of Roxanne. In the original story she was an absolute monster. Her battle sense is almost on par with spider sense.

"Master, may I put the clothes into closet, they may crease"

Because I let go of her hand she stood up. Oops she escaped.

"Yes do so and put my clothes and the extra equipment away too "

I still have one extra copper sword with the empty skill slot, one leather armor and sandals.

"Thank you"

She opens the case she brought from the trading company. It contains maid clothes, the uniform she was wearing when I first saw her, I will definitely make her wear it again sometime later.

The slave merchant whose job also has a Calc skill, added this maid costume worth 40 silver coins with her original 60 gold price, and so my 35% discount was applied. I still have to thank him as I too am very interested in maids.

As Roxanne got up to place her clothes, I got distracted by her ass. I shake those thoughts away and focus on my system for a bit. Because I went inside the labyrinth I got explorer as a job, which is also currently placed as my first job, now that I have some privacy I can check what rewards I got for it from my Level up system.

<Explorer: Level1 reward

Accept: Yes No >

Well Explorer can be considered a rarer and more dangerous job than the others so maybe the reward will be good this time. I mentally click yes.

<Basic Explorer Pack acquired:

-Explorer's Backpack>

A Brown Leather Backpack appears in my hand. This time it's equipment? Appraisal.

[Explorer's Backpack

-1 cubic meter storage space]

Wow, a storage bag! But it looks more like a knapsack. I inspected the brown bag, it feels like its made from leather. I open the only compartment and find it empty. I focus a bit more and in my mind I get a visual image of a large cubical space.

I take the coin pouch in my hand and as soon as it gets inside the bag it disappears. What a magical bag! From that mental image I can see the coin pouch sitting in a corner inside that cubic space. I try displacing it and it moves inside as I want with my thoughts. I put my hand inside the bag and the pouch is back in my hand.

This is so cool. I do have that item box spell from the explorer's job but honestly it has too many restrictions so this will be really helpful. And this is only a reward for level1 who knows what else I will get in the future.

"Roxanne look at this"

I pick up my iron sword from the side and put it inside the bag and it vanishes when it goes inside it.

"Wow, master is that bag also like an item box"

"Yep, you can think of it like that. And in this bag you can even put normal everyday items"

Another restriction of the Item box is that you can only put equipment and items dropped inside the labyrinth inside it. Like I can't put clothes inside the Item box but I can in this backpack.

I take my tracksuit and put it inside the backpack, it also disappears.

"That will be so useful, Master"

Roxanne gives me a beautiful smile, I take the tracksuit back out and give it to her so she can put the clothes inside the closet.

I checked the money I got from the bounty and saw that it's 16 gold and 50 silver coins. It's better than the village chief who gave me 15 gold for saving their village. Ughh so many coins I have to organize this all.

After she has kept everything including my extra equipment inside, I call her to sit on the bed.

"When we are in the house, I want you to sit on the bed or the chair freely okay"

"Yes, Master"

"Now help me organize and count all of this"

I take all the coins out of their pouches. And the bed is filled with coins of different colors.

"So much money"

"Yes, we are very rich Roxanne. So don't hesitate to ask for something you want to buy"

"No Master, It's your money you should use it on yourself"

"You are also mine Roxanne, and I want to use my money on you, tell me if you want anything okay"

I take her hand in mine and tell her seriously.

"Okay Master"

"Don't worry much about money, now that we can go to labyrinth we will earn money very easily"

"But Master, earning money from labyrinth is very hard"

"When we get in the labyrinth I will show you another power of mine, it will make earning money a breeze"

"Yes Master"

As soon as I talk about going to the labyrinth Roxanne looks spirited.

We count and organize the money, in total I have 93 gold, 200 silver and 135 copper coins. I keep them in 3 different coin pouches so that it is easier.

"Roxanne today is the Market day, let's make a list of things to buy"

In this city the Market opens every 5 days, there are no regular shops here. We will have to go to the Imperial capital to find regular shops.

"First let's talk about your equipment, what weapons do you want?"

"If possible a wooden shield and a one handed sword"

"Okay, and what about protection?"

"For protection, give me the remains of master's equipment upgrades"

Hearing her answer I start petting her head.

"Let's buy you a new armor, we have money so don't worry about using it alright"

The leather armor will stick to her skin and make her boobs stand out a bit too much, women usually wear jackets instead of armor.

"Thank you, Master"

"Alright now what about some daily necessities"

"Oil for maintenance is needed, so I would like a small bottle of olive oil"

"Alright, what about your clothes?"

"Master, doesn't need to worry these pair of clothes would suffice"

"No, you need at least some pair of undergarments. We will set aside a day for clothes shopping in the future, anything else"

"I would like a water canteen"

"Okay, that reminds me we need soap and toothbrush too"

"Master soaps are very expensive, so things like Koichi fruit are used. And for tufted toothpick, Shukure branch must be sold somewhere in the city"

Ughh such weird names.

"Okay"

This should be enough for now, maybe after tomorrow we won't be staying here anymore anyways. Quratar city is the best place for any new explorer and they must have better weapons and armor options than here.

"Let's add towels, rope and candles to the list too"

"Yes, Master"

I stand up and give my backpack to Roxanne.

"Let's go shopping"
