I did not have much time left before I had to let Jackie in to train the Centaur. To be honest, the girl was doing a decent job on the straightforward project. The Centaur was becoming more and more mindless in his fucking of the slaves we put under him. I still hadn't spoken to the women under him as they took him to see if they were worthwhile keeping afterward, but that was something different.
I sighed as I walked through, taking leisurely a stroll, thinking about how things were going to play out today. Our plan with the city lord was in the could not be canceled stage, and the incompetent one seemed to want to bring more onto my plate. Cassandra needed to be brought up to speed with the latest information, and I needed a map of the City lords house. I had been in only the banquet part of it, and I didn't have time to make a map at the time.
My mind was filled with so many responsibilities that I had a eureka moment that I remembered that I might be able to get something good from the System. I had finally leveled up, and I wondered what the level up would bring.
The System seemed to be something both reliable and unreliable when it came to certain aspects. When I was younger, it seemed to be something that boosted me up more, whereas as I got older, it seemed to have put me in shape. For the longest time, the titles continued to call me a Wizard when I abandoned that path on my road to becoming stronger.
It made me wonder how things worked within it even more, and I didn't have time to study more about it. With those thoughts, I ducked into an alleyway, and I jumped or climbed up to the roof. At this point, I laid back and stared into the sky, and sighed. I opened the interface and relaxed, looking at my stats.

I frowned, looking at the only increase in stats, and wondered what I did to increase my charm. This System made no sense at some points, and I struggled to understand some of the things about it. Still, I had leveled, and I was close to leveling again. The unmoving energy worried me the most though looking through my stats. I knew that I needed to practice, but at the rate, I was currently practicing, I would get a title for procrastinating or being too fucking busy to practice my stances since they took so much time. I simply didn't have time in the day to do everything that I needed to be doing.
I put that to the back of my head. No, I wanted to leave the Empire and move to the Demon lands to start growing. It was stupid to sit around in the nation of humans that send slavers out to other countries. I was surprised there hadn't been a war already with how things have been shaping up. It was like they were all scared of the Empire for one reason or another, which just encouraged the Empire to continue. It wasn't my problem, though, as long as no one tried to put a collar around me.
I finally decided to open the shop with a smile, thinking of different things.

I felt my eye twitch at the cost of the Items. The Agility candy was a big want of mine, but it was just under half my points, and the Knife seemed to be something good if it cost even more than my amazing Sadists bladed Whip. The problem was I didn't have much use for it. The only person around me, though, that could use it...
My thoughts hiccuped as I remembered fluffy, and I had my Kitty too. I did plan on training her more later and to make her battle-worthy to fight for me. That was a maybe, though, and she wasn't there yet.
I sighed as I looked at the other things. Spitting was one that kind of irked me. It was so cheap I was almost tempted to purchase it. It annoyed me so much, and I could get that from a random slave I bought over a night. It felt like a waste to me, and I wanted to punch the roof I was lying on as I looked at it. There were many questionable things in the system shop this time, and I felt disappointed. I wanted to get some toys that I could play with.
I wondered if it had something in the lottery that would give me some toys to play with. I decided, though, that the Gassed out talent was something I didn't want. Suppose it was some form of smell-based attack. I liked smelling good, though, and if it was more along the lines of making my farts gas everyone out. I would gladly pass on this talent as it sounded absolutely disgusting and would ruin my image.
I shuddered, thinking if I got a Title like, The gaseous one. I moved on quickly, and I thought about marching. It was an excellent skill to have but not very useful except in long sustained movement, whereas I could walk. It was something that fell outside of my knowledge base, to be fair, and something I would have to think more on before I allowed myself to level up.
I would think overall about my decisions before I moved forward with any purchases. I could get behind the Luck candy, although I wondered if it was doing me any good these days. Still, I wanted to wait and put a plan for spending together before moving forward with things. Sophia's Knife could be something unique, and I wouldn't know until I purchased it.
There were still other things that I was interested in when it came to the shop this time around, and I wasn't sure.
I got up off the roof, and I started to leisurely hop roof to roof deep in thought about what to do moving forward. I needed a plan, and I would prefer if I finished planning before getting home tonight.
Before all that, though. I was going to plan that mother a little more in the final steps of their contract that taught me more than I thought it would about training slaves.
I was looking forward to what she would do to her son today. As I moved through the city, the smile on my face was only marred as I passed what continued to bother me. My instincts screamed, and I ignored it like an idiot yet again as I reached towards my warehouse.
