*Yawn*
"Haa its been a while since I slept so soundly," Sora says as he stretches in the pajamas the maids brought to him last night.
*knock* *knock*
Sora turns his head towards the door and says loudly "Come in!"
A maid enters the room "Sir, Miss Taki sent you this ring." She says as she walks up to the bed and hands him the ring.
"Hmm?" Sora lets out a confused sound while taking the ring. As soon as he took the ring the maid left.
Looking at it a screen appears.
Obj: Void Ring
Har: 130/130
VS: 2.5 meters square
'HooHoo, I guess I'll just upgrade it with a random.' Sora thinks while looking at the ring with a grin.
~ Sometime later
'God that is expensive to upgrade. I hate to wait quite a bit.' Sora says while sitting on the bed this time dressed in his clothes and armor.
Obj: Void Ring+5
Har: 260/260
VS: 5 Ms
'Ughhh? What? No special ability? I guess void rings don't get abilities? Well alright.' Sora stores his spears, and the sword then gets up and leaves.
Soon he finds Taki, "Good morning!"
"Good Morning." Taki nods at him. "Breakfast will be ready soon."
Sora only now realizes that he is in fact hungry '... that's right I haven't eaten in a while.'
"Mhm, I didn't even notice I was hungry. Also, give me your void ring so I can upgrade it" Sora says as he puts his hand in front of himself.
"So you can upgrade them also?" She says while taking off the ring
"Mhm, but they don't get a special ability they only get more storage I don't know exactly why"
Obj: Void Ring
Har: 150/150
VS: 3Ms
~A bit later at the dining table
"Done," Sora says as he hands over the ring and continues to eat with as much courtesy as he can.
"Mhm," Taki nods as she receives the ring from a maid.
"What are we going to do about the dungeon?" Sora asks
"We'll go in and kill as many as we can with everyone," Taki says as she takes another bite.
"Makes sense when are we going?"
"In about an hour, we'll be waiting at the gate for everyone."
"Alright then"
Sometime later~
Sora pats his belly and with a face filled with pleasure "Ahh, I can't take anymore"
Taki looks at Sora and while rolling her eyes says "It's your fault for eating so much"
"Alright, alright let's get going now," Sora says impatiently
"Why are you in such a hurry its not like a few seconds will matter," Taki says while getting up.
"Sure thing," Sora says while walking out of the door.
"Oi, wait for me!" Taki says while pouting.
"Hurry up granny," Sora says while snickering.
Taki says as she glares at Sora "Who are you calling old, just look at your hair anyone could mistake you for a tiny grandma"
Sora puts his hands up as if surrendering "Well you aren't wrong." As they were talking trying to take their minds off the possibility of a giant worldwide monster wave.
Soon they leave the mansion and start walking through the streets, the streets are filled with all types of different races. Woodlings, Dwarves, Humans, Demi-Humans and even some of the less common races.
According to Taki, there are even more races she didn't mention before, She didn't mention them because they are from other continents or either low in population.
While they are walking Taki quite often gets friendly greetings and waves it seems she is quite popular. "Little Taki! Over Here!" A slightly chubby middle-aged man at a stall calls out while waving.
"Hello, Uncle Riess" Taki smiles and gives a small wave while walking over.
Riess smiles at Taki and hands her something, Sora curious tries to see what it is but before he could Riess started talking. "It's a new treat I made! I call it a sweet apple! Here is one for the young lady here"
Sora looks dumbfounded at the apple 'Isn't that a Candied apple?! What a coinci...' before he finished his thoughts Taki's voice interrupted.
"Don't be fooled, he is male, the maids already made the same mistake," Taki says with a deadpan look.
Sora hearing this quickly took the apple. "Ehh.."
"Haha, well my trap was disarmed Well anyways thank you, and I think Candied apple sounds better." Sora says cheekily
"Are you sure you didn't make some kind of mistake?" The uncle says with wide eyes, then rubbing them to make sure he is seeing correctly.
"There is no mistake Uncle I am definitely a boy," Sora says with a smile.
"Is this what they call Devil's luck" The uncle mutters still not believing his eyes.
"Yea I was surprised too, well anyways thank you, Uncle we have to go now." Taki says while leaving a few coins at the stall and walking away Sora quickly follows after while taking a bite.
'Ahh, it's so delicious' Sora enjoyed the apple with puffed up cheeks.
While they were walking there was a child curiously staring at Sora.
A lady held the child's arm and lightly pulled it while saying "Let's go honey."
The child looks at his mother and says "But mom why is that lady's hair like grandmas?"
Hearing this Taki snorts while Sora tries to act like he heard nothing while angrily thinking 'Damn brat'
Sora and Taki soon arrived at the gate, as they approach they notice Choten and Masayoshi already there waving at them.
'Ah, I forgot about trading in those items I left with Aurous, well I'll leave it for another time.'
As they greet the two Sora notices a horse running towards them in the distance. Squinting his eyes towards it he notices a man sitting on it's back. 'Why is it running at full speed?'
Sora slowly walks towards the Horse rider, Masayoshi notices his actions and asks "What's wrong?"
"Do you see that Horse? Isn't it running at full speed?" Sora says while pointing with his chin.
The others get behind Sora with a frown. Soon the Horse rider reaches them.
"M-Miss Taki! T-The Dungeon! There is a wave of monsters attacking the gates! We need reinforcements!" The man says panicked he was well built had unkempt brown hair and beard. IT seems he took off his armor to lower the burden on the horse.
"I am going ahead you guys catch up. Asu!" Sora pulls thunder mana into his legs as he runs forward for a bit and gets up on Asu that just got out of the earth. 'Full speed ahead girl'
"Sora!" Taki yells out but Sora ignores it as he speeds off pumping mana into Asu successfully speeding her up.
"Faster Asu! Every second counts now!" Sora yells out while laying low on Asu.
