BXBX NOVEL Chapter 53 Preparations For The Next City
"But as soon as I let go you will just run away, it was already hard enough to get you to leave." Elysia gave Shaman a grin which caused Shaman to have flashbacks to just before they left.
--10 minutes ago--
"Alright Shaman, it's time to go clothes shopping." Elysia went to grab Shaman by the arm as she usually snuggles up to Shaman as they walk around but this time Shaman dodged her.
Elysia looked at Shaman with confusion but only saw Shaman's normal relaxed face.
Elysia went to grab Shaman again but Shaman continued to dodge, so Elysia got more and more aggressive till they were basically running around the apartment.
"Why won't you let me grab you?" While still chasing Shaman around Elysia began to ask questions but never got an answer as Shaman kept dodging without a word.
Elysia continued to chase Shaman and was able to finally corner Shaman.
"I have you now." Elysia had a grin and Shaman started to panic a little but before Elysia could get ahold of Shaman, Elysia prepared for another trick and anticipated Shaman to use a skill.
Due to Elysia's magnificent hindsight Shaman did use her skills as she activated [Shadow cloak]. However Elysia prepared for that and was able to grab Shaman's foot as she jumped in the air in an attempt to go over her.
Shaman tried to get loose but due to her being in the air her next destination was the ground without being able to break her fall.
*BANG*
Shaman hit the ground which did not hurt much but when she turned around she was greeted with a smiling Elysia.
"Now, let's go on that Shopping trip shall we." Elysia grabbed Shaman and started to drag her out the door
--Present--
"Well it's because I feel like I will become a dress up doll and that grin you do just send shivers down my spine." Shaman finally spoke of why she was avoiding Elysia.
"Jeez I was not going to make you a dress up doll alright, I was only imagining in some sexy clothes no need to panic." Elysia let out another grin which was the same grin Shaman had been talking about. Shaman's face had also turned red as the fact that Elysia was thinking about her in such a way made her embarrassed.
'How the hell did I end up with her.' Shaman questions her life choices as she could not believe she was in this predicament.
"Because you love me since I will never treat you wrong and be willing to do anything for you." Elysia as if she read Shaman's mind. Shaman stared at Elysia with shock and felt her heart tightened.
Elysia saw Shaman's expression and internally thanked the system for telling her what Shaman was thinking as she just earned herself some more wife points.
Shaman finally gave in and did not struggle anymore and let Elysia lead her along.
*
They made it to one of the clothing stores and Elysia got straight to picking out clothes while Shaman waited at one of the dressing rooms while munching on her egg that she is using as a snack.
After a few minutes Elysia came back with some clothes to try on and Shaman got to changing.
Shaman walked out of the dressing room a little embarrassed and waited for Elysia's opinion.
Shaman wore Black thigh high Socks that had a floral pattern engraved on the side of the socks. She also wore really short shorts with a white top that slightly went over her shorts. Shaman grabbed a hold of the bottom of the shirt as she felt rather exposed.
"You look amazing!" Elysia loved what she was seeing and felt the urge to jump on Shaman as her curves were more defined.
"Yes but this feels like too little, would not this be better as sleep wear." Shaman had to admit she looked good but she felt like it was too alluring to wear out in public.
"That's fine and I agree only I should be seeing this." Elysia agreed and instantly got back to getting more clothes.
*
Elysia returned for more clothes and Shaman went to put them on.
Shaman walked out this time with black stockings with black shorts that go down just above her knees. Shaman also came out with a white top that tightly wrapped around her which defined her curves. Shaman did not mind this as it would be good to wear while fighting.
Elysia clapped as it fit Shaman's style and could see this outfit a part of her battle wear alongside her coat.
"This is definitely going in the battle wardrobe." Elysia had a smile as so far she was 2 for 2.
"Can we get some casual clothes now?" Shaman was happy with what she got so far and all she needed was some casual clothes to wear while not fighting.
"Do you want to try them on?" Elysia's eyes were beaming but soon to be shut down by Shaman.
"No need just anything that looks good." Shaman did not want to waste anymore time as they needed to prepare to move but right now it seems like they were on date.
Elysia looked disappointed but understood what Shaman was intending.
They found some more clothes and went ahead to purchase them. They headed out and made their way around town buying necessities needed for a couple day trip and due to the inventory having a way to preserve food they were able to get things that would not usually be able to last.
After traveling around they made their way back to the apartment so they could discuss what skills they should get as they are now tier 4 and should have access to more of the skills.
"Alright now that we have got all we need for the trip we need to decide on some skills that will be beneficial and that are not attainable through a little training." Shaman outlined what they were going to do as getting skills is not hard and if they were to get one that they could easily get by training it would be pointless.
"Fair enough." Elysia agreed and has already begun to think of what skill she would want.
"Seeing as we have 2 skill selects each we can try to get some cool skills and plus we are not really in need of any skills so it does not really matter but it still would be good if we pick up some useful stuff." After thinking about it, Shaman realized that they did not really need any skills.
They began to look through the list of skills and Elysia was not coping as her head looked like it was going to explode as she only has 2 skill selects and she wanted to make it count. Shaman on the other hand was casually playing with Wolfy while the list of skills scrolled down till something caught her eye.
"Elysia, it is not that bad and plus we have many more quests ahead of us so don't worry too much about it." Shaman could see Elysia struggling and felt a little bad for her.
"ughhhhh, why are there so many skills like half of these are so worthless." Elysia was amazed by the sheer amount of skills with most of them being useless and just small talents that you pick up when you are a kid.
"You know you can filter them right?" Shaman looked at Elysia with worry as the unfiltered list of skills is full of junk and not useful skills.
"There... is... a.... filter?" Elysia looked like she was about to snap and Shaman panicked a little as she was unsure what would happen if Elysia started to rampage through the city.
"uuhhh yes if you say what you don't want it will filter it out so how about giving it a try." Shaman tried to explain it and slowly approached Elysia as physical touch is generally the only way to calm her down.
Shaman managed to get close enough to hug Elysia and when she did Elysia returned back to normal and was back to her normal self.
"Thank you for telling me." Elysia got up with a smile and returned to looking through the list with the new found knowledge.
Shaman let out a sigh as she just saved the apartment complex from blowing up and them having to push forward their trip to the next city.
'I think we are going to need to get a stress toy and I need to get that item that tracks me so Elysia can stay calm.' Shaman had almost forgotten about getting something for Elysia to track her health so whenever Elysia was alone she could track Shaman's health.
'I think we need to make one last trip to the auction house before we leave.' Shaman sighed as she was expecting this to take up most of their money.
