BXBX NOVEL Chapter 601 600: Shopping Spree
"Now, while your collection of noodles up in your skull is working in overdrive, let me give you another juicy tidbit, alright? The pleasure that you feel can be more easily converted into Lust Mana during or directly after when you are receiving it. Which means when you learn how to grasp that 'pleasure' it becomes easier to convert it if you are in the middle of 'earning' more pleasure. However, there are other ways to do so, and right now is one of them. While your pleasure is practically gone, the pleasure of your three women are still lingering around inside of you, dripping out slowly. You can try and utilize that, if you'd like~?"
Licking her lips, Cali once more coyly asked "Or we could skip all~ of that and I could inject a few thick, creamy loads of it into you right here, right now~? It doesn't have to be inside your womb either; we could use the other two holes as well~? What do you say, my sexy puppy? Want to give that a shot~?"
I took a deep breath as I recovered from the emptiness that I was feeling, reaching forwards to grab the wine glass and taking a small sip before glaring at the Arch Fiend, who just pouted as I shook my head quietly.
"Tch, fine~! Being around you though has been something... almost torturous, though I imagine that was because of our topic of choice~! Now if you'll excuse me, I'll be heading down to the city for some fun~! I'll take you back to the chapel first though, my lusty puppy..."
Taking another sip from the wine, I placed it down on the table and accepted her hand, my vision swimming once more as we were teleported back to the chapel, this time though we weren't alone.
Lady D'Arcon was standing in the middle, and almost instantly Cali teleported away, pink mist swirling around her figure as she fled as fast as she could, which made the holy woman chuckle softly.
"I cannot say I particularly condone consorting with Fiends, let alone Arch Fiends, but I am not blinded enough by my beliefs to claim them to all be evil. Just... tread carefully by her side, Katherine. Rarely do people escape the clutches of an Arch Fiend, or remain sane by their side. It'd be a pity to lose you, my dear. But, enough of my ramblings; I came to say congratulations on the rise in rank, as well as to wish you good luck in the future, Katherine Zara. The Nobles can be insufferable to deal with, especially with their penchant to stick to the past. Ah, and... do try to keep the bloodshed to a minimum when the marriage proposals come in, hmm~?"
She smiled softly at me as she said that, and I blanched as I realized that would likely be something that would swamp House Asmodia in the near future; proposals for both Mother and I since we were very clearly connected to House Asmodia, but no one would know just how close we were tied to them...
Chuckling, Lady D'Arcon waved at me before turning and leaving the chapel behind as she returned to the rest of the Palace, leaving me alone with my thoughts once more.
Shaking myself free from said thoughts, I turned back to the altar of Reincantra and sighed, kneeling in front of it once more and opening up the System Shop first, deciding that I would need to try this 'conversion' of pleasure to Lust Mana some other time...
If the way I could do it now wasn't the optimal way, then I would need to wait until I was in the midst of coitus to try, and considering it seemed similar to Dual Cultivation, perhaps I could learn how to do it quicker than I thought, or even Cali thought I could?
However, that wasn't what was happening right now, and instead I needed to focus my attention on some of the items inside the Shop that would be useful for the imminent future.
Jahi had something increasing her CON and STR, Anput had something increasing her DEX and STR, and Leone had something that increased her WIS and INT.
So what would be best for them now..?
Perusing the Shop was a rather fun thing to do, and I hummed quietly to myself as I did so, marking out the items that I thought would be beneficial and creating a new catalogue of items to further trickle down into what was needed.
That was when I came across an item that was a part of a set of items, one that had two effects like before, but if I managed to get another piece in the set, it would increase the effects by an additional percentage.
[Raksasha's --- : Increases CON by 15% and --- by 10%]
That was the 'base' set of the item, and when paired with a second piece, it was increased from 15% and 10% to 20% and 15%, then up to 30% and 25% with three, and finally 50% and 45% with four.
I decided that it'd be easiest to explain all of us receiving the same gift, and something that we could all utilized was an increase in our Mana's Potency, or an increase in our WIS stats.
So I purchased four of one item for a total of 24,000 Shop Points, or 6,000 each; compared to the 1,250 each that I spent before, this was more than just a 'small' increase for the stats, but it was apart of the set, so...
In the future, this would be incredibly worth it, especially since this just made all of our physical defenses so much higher~!
[Raksasha's Earring : Increases CON by 15% and WIS by 10%]
Four golden hoops appeared in my palm, small rainbow stones studding the bottom half of the hoop and glimmering with mana.
For a moment I frowned, not knowing just how I was meant to put this on, before sighing as I thought about how Leone and Jahi had 'normal' ears that they could pierce, while Anput and I only had these fluffy canine ears...
Though, I knew that these could be pierced and that they weren't seen as odd, since I had seen quite a few Caninekin adventurers wearing earrings as well, but still... it wasn't something I was accustomed to seeing in the slightest.
