[Vanishing Cabinet] [Through the use of conjoined twin tree trunks this 'cabinet' has a shared space of existence with its twin cabinet. Should someone or something be within the cabinet when the other's door is opened while the original cabinet's door was still closed, the item or living being may exit the twin cabinet.] [The best way to smuggle drugs, booze, terrorists, and enchanted playboys into magic schools!]
As always the flavor text of things always made me smile wryly and as I looked at the large, thick, and reinforced box with a door on it that was bigger than a refrigerator I realized the major issue with my plan to sneak this back to Orario to Hephaestus so we could teleport back and forth to her.
'How the hell do I get this Vanishing Cabinet to her in the first damned place?' I wondered as I really didn't want to trust some random adventurer's with it.
And then it struck me as I knew Hera was going to have people looking for me within the guards who watched the entrances to Orario. 'I can have Tamamo deliver it as no one knows who she is! Also with a matching pocket watch, we can setup a time for Tina and I to come out of it and into Orario!' I thought triumphantly and nodded as I looked over at Tamamo who perked up at me looking at her.
"Alright Tamamo, we are going to work to make you stronger, and when you eat enough monster stone to equal a good mid-level one in a few days I will need you to deliver this to Orario while following one of the caravans from Melen to Orario." I explained and she bit her lip before nodding.
"Yes Jake... I assume this cabinet is to be delivered to your goddess Hephaestus?" Tamamo finished and then looked pensive as she shifted slightly and spoke nervously. "Uhm Jake?" Tamamo seemingly asked for my attention and I raised an eyebrow in a clear go-ahead with her taking a breath as I held the napping form of Tina in my arms.
"Could I also join your Familia?" Tamamo asked with clear expectation in her voice and I didn't hesitate in answering.
"Yup that's perfectly fine, don't worry about anything." I said cutting away any worries about her state of being part Xeno or whatever. Thankfully with the monster of an Adventurer that was Zald the Gluttony that could eat monster parts and stuff to grow faster, Tamamo could claim to have a similar skill to eat monster stones.
Especially when if you consider it Tamamo's Renard special skill that the cheat fox race can typically get. 'Now just to make sure no one tries to stick her soul in a Killing Stone like they tried to do to Haruhime.' I thought before shaking my head as I pulled Tamamo into a hug and my eyes rolled up in sheer comfort at the enchanted bed I made with the supplies that Tina made.
'Ok major goals while here in Melen. Get girls into sexy swimsuits and have a nice day at the beach... More importantly, find water-based materials to fuse some water themed enchantments. And lastly and most importantly, upgrade from the Infant Dragon mount to the Kelpie's that can run on land along with running on and through water!' I thought while making up a to do list as I considered the things I could make.
'Now besides the Falna, and the enchanted objects that I can wear that don't multiply off of other enchantments. What supplements or whatever can I make to increase my actual stats or my bodies state?' I wondered before I hit on something!
"Xcuse me girls." I whispered making them groan and look up at me a pout as I gently rolled over Tina's form who shamelessly snorted and snuggled into Tamamo's large soft breasts as I spoke up a bit more wryly. "You girls be good for a bit, I am going to go on a quick run for something." I said and the two overly comfortable girls just waved with Tamamo clearly already half asleep.
I quickly got dressed up in some newer clothes and then I went to leave the beach house to look for a store owned by an Asian god or goddess to look for supplements I could fuse. But as I exited the small walled-in gate I heard a voice call out. "Lady Kusanali, our neighbor."Â
I looked over with some confusion and I first registered the divinity radiating from the white-haired beautiful goddess who was standing beside the person who talked. In a young elf woman with ample curves, green hair, darker green eyes and was wearing a tightly fitting hunting outfit that looked like Kelpi leather that would remove the water resistance, people would feel while in water.
"Hello neighbors, I just moved in today." I said nodding my head respectfully in their direction and I continued calmly. "My name is Jake Barriss, and are you two a Familia?" I asked to open up a conversation even as I very much noted down the name Kusanali and recognized her from a land she wasn't supposed to be from.
But honestly... For all I knew, the name Kusanali could literally be a goddess in the massive Hindu religion who just now looked like Rukkhadevata.
The elf took a step forward and honestly... As she gracefully laid a hand on her chest and began introducing herself, I could see the same grave confidence and grace in Hera's Albion that it was uncanny. "My name is Elanor! Captain of the Kusanali Familia and your neighbor as of now." She finished while giving me a look and then saying more gently. "I can see you are new to Melen Jake, do you need directions?" She asked and I blinked before nodding and saying I was looking for medicinal herbs and such.
Her eyes went kinda unfocused as it looked like she was in deep thought before she smiled and said. "Ahh I see, then in that case. Then you will likely want the Bazaar at the main beach front. Would you like me to escort you?" She offered but it was clear that she wasn't all to enthused but was offering it out of courtesy.
So I gracefully declined her offer as I said gently. "Thank you Elanor, I should be fine and it was nice to meet you as well Lady Kusanali," I said nodding to the silent goddess who was staring at me... With entirely too much intensity.
