Chapter 18 - Training as a Slime (18)

Cori, back in the corridor, stared at the two remaining doors. Unlike before, there was no forceful intervention of any kind against Cori's will to enter the rooms. Using his skills, he managed to identify both doors as entrances to west and east wing of the house. "If only my house was this big on Earth..," lamented Cori until he remembered that the deity occupying his body had already made his family rich and it would not be too far off to guess that his granny and siblings were living THE LIFE that he could only dream of.

So far the benefits were pretty limited from the previous rooms. Cori felt a little tired from all the thinking. "Well, nothing ventured, nothing gained." he squeaked to himself. "East side best side, or West side best side?" he wondered. The east and west were competitors on Earth and now they were competing in Cori's mind. Cori being indecisive decided to pick based on his cravings, he took out his boba milk tea and took a few sips. "East wing it is! Since I am drinking boba and the East invented it, I should go along with the theme!" Cori decided, proud of the decision he made and feeling lucky about it.

Using his paws he twisted the knob and peered into the room, just in case. System, "Hi Master. Welcome to the East wing, where would you like to visit? 1. Museum 2. Bar 3. Music Room 4. Meeting room 5. Potion room 6. Smithery 7. Market Place." "Master?" Cori quizzed. System, "Due to recent OS upgrade, current OS Alice recognised you as 'Master'." Cori's ego inflated, while blushing at the same time. The pink cheeks tempted the system but before it could pinch Cori's cheeks, he replied, "Let's proceed to the Museum."

Cori levitated through the air and was transported to the Museum. "Isn't this Mona Lisa? And isn't this Storm on the Sea of Galilee, and The Concert by Johannes?" [Observation], "Jewel of Vicenza. Original Silver model of Vicenza by Andrea Palladio. Offering from Earth."

Cori was stunned, "Are the collections all stolen or offerings?" He stood in the middle of the museum and marvelled at all the rare collections, all taken from the planet he lived on. The museum had a total of 3 levels, at least according to sight. But looks can be deceiving, although not quite in this sense... Maybe Cori could plunder and reap some benefits from this benefactor in the museum.
