Chapter 7 Elemental Crsytal

Three days later Iris and I were used to living in the city.

Not only leaves, we also sell potions sold by Anya.

"Please buy this healing and strengthening potion,"

Seeing such excited irises makes me happy. Most of our buyers were lower ranked adventurers trying to level up.

"Thank you for coming, next time come again!"

"Ya, thank you."

It doesn't feel like we've sold bottles during the day.

"You guys have worked hard," the voice came from a 500 year old elf.

"Sherin!" I say his name.

"Want to buy a potion?" I said in response with a wave of his hand.

"I just stopped by, I bought a lot of food for our new house celebration tonight, I'm here to invite you. You guys will come right?"

"We're coming," answered Iris.

"Good, then I'm going, see you tonight."

"See you."

We only watched Sherin leave from a distance.

"We'd better go see Anya for some money,"

Iris and I headed to Anya's house, not much different from the houses in this town. The house is only medieval European style but what makes the difference is the horseshoe stuck to the door maybe a custom carried over from the previous world.

When the door opened, the bell rang.

"Welcome... I thought it was customers, apparently you guys. Why

did you come back so soon?"

"Today we sold a lot... may I have a cold drink?"

"Okey,"

"Me too, Anya," said Iris who was sitting on the chair.

"Alright, wait a minute."

Anya left and came back after placing two glasses of water on the shop window. He then took out a white stone the size of a baby's fist and put it in the glass.

"Ice magic," At the same time our water froze.

"...."

not cold water anymore, our glasses all froze like stone.

"Ah, sorry I put in too much magic energy, I'll heat it up."

Now it is the turn of the red crystal that is issued by Anya.

"Fire magic,"

And as a result, our glasses exploded.

"Oi, what are you doing?!"

"Hahaha sorry, I'm really not good at using magic,"

"Don't do that again," at my prohibition, she smiled bitterly before helping to clean the stains from the iris hair.

"By the way, what was that just now?"

"Kristal elemental, kristal ini bisa menyerap energi sihir milik para penggunanya lalu mengubahnya sesuai tipe kristal sebelum akhirnya keluarkan seperti barusan."

"Magic energy, do you think I have... magic energy?"

According to the rules of this world, only a few people have magical energy, which is why they are treated special in the guild.

"I don't know, you can visit the fortune teller to find out, he's always in his shop."

"I have to visit him," I answered quickly.

"But it wasn't that you were with iris before coming to this world iris must have given you power, right?"

"No, Naoto chose me instead."

"I see, I think Naoto has dirty intentions in mind."

"I think so too."

They both looked at me coldly.

"You piss me off."

***

Iris and I went to the fortune teller, in a completely dark room lit only by the luminous ball on the table, the fortune teller was seen twirling his hand over the ball.

"So what do you want to know?"

words that are not foreign to the ear.

"I wonder how many children I have with iris... Ouch, it hurts, why are you pulling my cheek?"

"It's your own doing."

"I'm sorry, I was just kidding."

"It's so hard... I can't possibly predict a goddess."

Turns out this guy's abilities are real, I thought the fortune tellers were all liars. I feel guilty for underestimating him.

"Why are you even answering that?" Iris protest.

"I'm sorry goddess iris, but everyone who asks me, I will always answer with the truth."

hearing the fortune teller's words, Iris only smiled faintly.

"I don't think you're lying, it's not about time you showed your face, don't worry if Naoto does something weird, I'll give him divine punishment."

"Having a pretty face is sometimes difficult, even I almost became the subject of a royal struggle."

what are you talking about, naoto thought.

When the hood of her robe was opened, then I understood, It turned out to be a beautiful woman with red hair and horns coiled around her head.

He was from the Demon Ras, a succubus to be exact.

In this world, the demon ras was a hostile ras but unlike the succubus they were simply freed. Sometimes, they also often help in the battle against the Demon lord.

The woman looked at me confused.

"You're not attracted by my charms?"

"Sorry, I'm not interested at all. I've had enough of Iris beside me."

"....."

Hearing my answer, the woman looks annoyed while Iris turns her face to hide her red cheeks.

I said something to iris who was blushing.

"Let's get married."

A thunderbolt pierced the ceiling of the house so that I was hit too.

"Hahahaha," The woman burst out laughing.

"My hair went bald again."

"It suits you very well." replied iris.

"I'm not a hero who defeats his enemy with one hit, Please give me back my hair, iris."

"Alright, Reflection."

The magic that Iris used was different from what she had spoken before.

"Oi, oi what kind of magic is that?!!!"

"Hahaha Good goddess iris, It's so funny." said the fortune teller laughing thumping beat him.

"You, make my head into a lamp,"

Iris smiled mischievously.

"This is your punishment."

"I'm sorry, please get my head and hair back the way they were, iris."

After several pleas, finally my hair and head are back to normal.

"So you want to know you have magic energy or not?" he said while drinking water. This fortune teller is named Alice Patricia because she is from the demon ras I can't guess her age.

"Drink my glass and we'll know if you have magic or not."

"I don't want to, it's the glass you drank. I just saw you spit on it too."

"Tch, found out."

"You can't fool me."

"Just let me, Naoto. Let me purify him."

"Uwaah, please don't do it, I'm just kidding, just kidding, Please don't do that goddess iris."

Alice cries for forgiveness.

"What did she just do?"

"She is luring you, if that happens you will die of exhaustion."

I didn't want to know what it was about, instead I took Alice's crystal ball.

"Hey wait, wait, what do you want to do?" said alice who was still hugging iris' legs.

"I'll destroy this thing."

"No, please... I'll give you an elemental crystal as an apology."

"Okay. But I want two."

Alice quickly nodded.

"Well, well I guess that's enough... For the sake of my love Iris you should also forgive her."

"Don't say such embarrassing things at a time like this... I'll forget about it."

Alice returned to her seat with a sigh of relief, her hand stroking the crystal ball until it shone brightly. Then he told me to hold it.

"How? you feel something?"

"No,"

"Everyone has different magic, usually people only have one type of magic, but sometimes there are also talented people who have more than one magic."

I glared at alice. "You lied to me, I didn't feel anything."

"Too bad it means you don't have magical energy in your body, if the wind you will feel air around your hands, fire feels warm, water feels wet, earth feels rough in your hands, ice feels cold, light shines, darkness blackens."

"I'm really weak, but it's okay as long as there's the Goddess of Iris behind me I can't have any trouble."

"I told you, don't say anything stupid."

"As I promised, two elemental crystals for you, this thing is very expensive so take good care of these crystals."

"I'm very grateful, I will put it to good use."

"So the total cost is 300.000 nil."

"EH?!! You said it's free."

"The Elemental kristal is free, but the consulting fee is not free."

"It's very expensive. You tricked me."

"No, that's the rule."

She must have made his own terms.

"But I don't have that kind of money,"

"Hmm then I have a good offer for him, how about you recruit me as your teammate?"

Iris and I fell silent as she offered herself as our partner.

"Are you serious about joining our Team? We don't even have a house or join a guild yet," I said.

"No problem, it looks like being with you guys will be fun, I also don't want to continue to be here."

"What do you think Iris?" I turned to ask him.

"I don't mind, if he wants to keep his attitude."

"Don't worry, I'll be a good girl."

Finally after a long chat with Iris, we agreed that Alice would join our team. Then we went together to leave the place.

Before we left, Alice set fire to the tent that had been her own home.

"Actually, how long have you been in this place?"

"Very long, maybe 300 years."

I was silent, did not want to comment.

Alice looked at me with a strange smile, she said something in a seductive tone.

"If goddess Iris doesn't want to, you can marry me."

"You don't need to call me a goddess, listen to the succubus if you do something indecent to naoto, I won't hesitate to kill you."

"So scary, I don't want to."

Looks like this kind of commotion will continue.
