"You… You're a freaking swine! I almost died!" Grey complained as she looked down at the scratch on her arm… "Where did you take us? What is that nice smell?"
"It's the smell of an apology…" Clark had the waitress put down some ice cream as the three girls looked at him with mystified eyes… "I know fox girls love ice cream, so I wanted to treat you…"
"Before you kill us… I'd rather walk a plank than eat---" Nadia received the ice cream and gulped before continuing… "I mean… If you really don't mind, then I'll eat it…"
"Go ahead… After this, we can sell the 25 wolf claws you girls gathered…" Clark held his thumb up as he looked at his stats.

'Well… I suppose I could be weaker… However, I probably would die to a single swipe from a wolf without a skill…
Clark couldn't use any skills because he had the system, which disabled his ability to learn abilities…
However, he'd learned in the course of multiple reincarnations that a system always beat his attempts to kill monsters by himself. As usual, when he'd revived back at reboot hall in the center of City Z, he'd done some very stupid but simple missions…
He'd spent weeks stealing small objects called slime seeds from nests of slimes in order to be able to purchase these girls for 2000 points each. He was poor now, and could barely afford the ice cream without selling the wolf claws…
However, each wolf claw should sell for 20 points, and soon he might even be able to buy another type of girl…
"So… you going to stare at the wall or talk to us…"
"Sorry, " Clark replied as he gave the waitress 100 points for the ice cream… "Anyways, just eat before we go to the blacksmith… I think wearing a kimono to battle doesn't sound like a good idea, no?"
"Will, will you let us stay like this…" Grey gulped as she ate the ice cream… "I hate it when you control me… I feel so powerless…"
"Sorry, but you can use your skills better when I'm controlling you…" Clark smiled as he also ate the ice cream. It was chocolate flavored with sprinkles, so he was fairly happy as he ate it.
"However, I can let you select a skill Grey since you got to level 5…. You know yourself better…"
"Time to go!" A lady walked up to the table, interrupting Clark as the three girls gulped down their food as fast as they could… They were clearly upset they had to leave… "The appraiser said he's ready to look at the wolf claws you got…"
"Girls?"
"Ice cream! Give me more! MORE!" Aria said as she glowered over at the waitress… "Please! More on the house! He's going to make me suffer if you don't feed me…"
"Nice bunch you have…" The apprentice appraiser laughed as they walked over to the appraiser shop… "Anyways, go inside, and try not to make too much noise…. She isn't in the mood for fox girls, nor system leaders…." A leader as in a person that could reincarnate…
It was an extremely prestigious position that Clark had and he knew that some people didn't like it… Many leaders when they reincarnated were immediately killed after doing bad deeds, so people were generally wary around them…
However, the apprentice appraiser could tell he was a good guy, Clark was good.
They walked up to a lady sitting in front of a crystal ball and he tossed her his bag from his inventory. She caught it and then looked at the fox girls behind him…
"Hmmm… They are pretty for little dogs…"
She hissed under her breath as she opened up the bag…. "This… this is barely enough to get you 700 points, but since you're the idiot who stole slime seeds for 3 weeks I'll give you a 1000…"
"Oh, so you don't hate me already?"
"How can I hate an idiot who is willing to steal slime seeds? I know what a slime nest smells like, and you still wreak of it…"
"Well, apparently she doesn't hate you…" The apprentice appraiser, Lily laughed as Clark took the 1000 points and left the shop… He smiled and looked over at the blacksmiths….
'Well… I guess I'll buy them some armor now before the attack on the city happens… Can't wait to see what Grey looks like in leather armor!"
He smiled and walked out of the apprentices office as quickly as he entered…. After this, he might even go to the battle pavilion and see how his girls perform against other system users…
"This isn't a bad start…" Clark put his arm around Aria as she licked at her thumb, trying to get the last of the ice cream off her hand… "Heh… where were you girls in my last 29 lives?"
