After receiving the rank of Orihalcom from the guild leader, Velzard and Milim left the guild and started walking down the street. They had a purpose for doing so:
shopping.
Like buying food and clothes for Milim, because she only had this dress that Velzard had created through the creation of matter.
Of course Velzard can create clothes like this, right?
Actually, no, it was difficult to use this ability to create anything. The dress was just a coincidence, as I tried to create many things after that.
Back at the hotel
Velzard was standing in the middle of the room without her armor, stunned by what she saw when she returned.

Creation of matter
She saw her state in the cave back then but she was so shocked by her stats that she didn't notice the new skill.
Although this ability was owned by the original Velzard, it hadn't been shown before yesterday. Perhaps because Velzard was weaker than the requirements
After seeing it, she became excited and tried to experiment with renewed enthusiasm and intense anticipation, only for life to meet her with a slap in the face. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't create anything.
She even added half of her mana in many attempts, but she didn't succeed.
After dozens of failed attempts, she was severely disappointed, but she didn't despair, as she knew the magnificence of this skill, "It is the creation of matter for God sake!!"
So, She tried it again and again for three hours, and finally, she succeeded! She created a pile of dirt...Yap, a little pile of useless dirt
She stared blankly at it for a few moments before throwing it out the window.
Angrily, she entered the hotel's small bathroom to shower, muttering, "Why the hell didn't it work?"
Oh, by the way, it turns out the name of this hotel is The Crimson Rose. 'Stylish name,' Velzard's thought at the time.
So after she got out of the bathroom she was going to go to the union until she heard "Ummmm, are you my mom?"
present time
They both stopped in front of a famous clothing store where most of its customers were nobles due to the high prices.
Now, Vizard was rich; her reward from the previous mission had reached 16,000 gold coins! More than double the original amount.
Due to her defeating over 2,000 monsters, her reward had doubled. She also sold the monster corpses she had obtained, which raised the percentage to this amount.
Then they entered the store to be greeted by a large hall with a reception area decorated with dresses of various sizes from one year old to adults.
The place was crowded with aristocratic women, adorned from head to toe with jewels, exchanging news and gossip.
As soon as they entered, the conversation suddenly stopped and silence fell over the place.
"Who is this, an adventurer?" one of the women in the corner of the shop said quietly to those with her.
If it weren't for Velzard's improved hearing, she wouldn't have heard.
"Hmm, he seems so, but what is someone like him doing here?" another woman replied with a disdainful tone in her voice.
"And look at the girl he's with, she looks too good to be common, except for that cheap dress she's wearing, how is she standing with him? Did he kidnap her"
"I wonder, Oh, should we call the guards?"
A fat one accused him unnecessarily. She looked old with wrinkles all over her face and looked kind of like a gorilla.
"Hmph, I'm sure he looks really ugly so he covers his face with that helmet!" She didn't stop talking until she felt a chill run down her body.
Velard was smiling sarcastically from under the helmet with a dangerous expression, "You're talking about ugly? Haha, well let's see how ugly you'll get when your insides explode with icebergs tonight."
The reason for her smile was finding a sample to test her new technique so quickly. While she was trying to use matter creation, she invented another technique she called:
'Internal Frost Blast'.And it is:
Many ice particles enter the body and become concentrated in any of the internal organs, then explode outwards in all directions At any time the user wants, tearing apart and freezing the target's body from the inside
Although a person feels cold all the time,to that he will not doubt something, it will only be guaranteed by a normal cold
She also created two other techniques:
'Eternal Winter' and 'Freeze Nova'. They are as follows:
Eternel winter:A large-scale technology that changes the surrounding environment to create a cold area with very low temperatures, and creates massive ice storms filled with ice fragments that can last for weeks or months.
Freeze nova: A concentrated beam in the hands composed entirely of pure cold and infused with her ultimate skill (albeit a small percentage). It draws out heat, disperses molecules, causing a state of stillness, and freezes cells and blood in the body, leading to a quick and painful death.
These techniques were very powerful, even though they consumed a lot of mana, but they were worth it. Using them was very attractive, especially Eternal Winter. So I decided to avoid using them until I could find a solution to this problem.
Seeing Velzard lost in thought, Milim grabbed her hand, successfully catching her attention.
"hmm, what's up, Milim? Do you need something?" Velzard asked, bending down to face her.
"Nothing, I just saw you absentminded, what were you thinking?" Milim asked her as she tilted her head.
"Ah, well that..." She couldn't tell her what she had done to the woman, she didn't know if she was accepting killing because she was made in a lab or if she was like any of the other little girls who couldn't kill a fly.
"...Oh yes! I was thinking about what clothes to buy for you. So what would you like the clothes to be?" She didn't want to risk the truth so she half-lied, she was really thinking about what kind of clothes she was going to buy... before she entered the store of course.
"I don't really know I have never worn or seen the clothes before , but isn't this enough? I don't think I'll need anything else until it rips," she replied, pointing to the dress she was wearing.
"...Actually, I don't know either. I've never been interested in clothes before, but owning just one is too little." Velzard wasn't a fan of fashion in her previous life. If he liked a shirt, he would buy it, no matter the brand.
Milim nodded in agreement. And so they set off on a shopping spree.
two hours Later
Velzard and Milim walked out of the shop carrying several bags. "Wow, I didn't expect to find clothes designed for movement and comfort instead of the extravagance found in those useless, bulky dresses.
" This shop had two sections, the first for nobles with very expensive and unnecessarily ornate clothes designed for parties.
The second part was for knights or those looking for practicality over appearance. Of course, the clothes were still beautiful, and Velzard even bought a pair for herself.
"Even though the prices are still high, everything cost me: 800 gold coins!"Velzard complained to herself, but when she saw Milim's happy expression and bright smile, she smiled from under the helmet with a motherly expression.
"Oh, Veldora-san? Is that you?"
Hearing her name, the two girls turned to face the herald, "Nfirea? I haven't heard from you in a while. How are you and your grandmother?" She hadn't seen Nfirea in several days, so she wondered how the project was doing.
"We're fine thanks to you. Since you kicked those three out, no one has dared to bother us, so I want to thank you again," he said as he bowed to her. As he did so, he noticed the girl standing next to him.
"Ito… Veldora-san, who is that little girl over there?" Taking another look at her, she looked like a younger version of Velzard.
Well, it's not like he knows what she really looks like.
She attracted attention with her bright white hair and captivating golden eyes, but her beauty didn't add to her beauty.
Even when they were on the street, people gave them strange looks. It's not every day that you see something like this.
"Oh, she's my daughter," she answered casually, as if it were real. Well, if we compare their appearances with Velzard without the armor, no one would doubt that fact.
"Ah, I see. I didn't know you had such a cute daughter, Veldora-san. Hehe." Nfirea laughed slightly, not suspecting anything.
He didn't know anything about Veldora. In fact, counting this time, he had only met him twice, and this was the first time he had had a conversation with him.
"Yes, she is. By the way, Nfirea, how's the potion trade going? Have you made any profit?" That was the 'literal' million dollar question. By selling those potions, she could earn a steady stream of money without having to carry out guild tasks every day.
"Ah! Indeed, we have achieved great success in this regard! Not only in E-Rantel, but even in the capital and other places. We have earned hundreds of thousands of gold coins!" Nfirea answered enthusiastically.
Within a few days, the healing potions became famous among the nobles, and everyone was recommending them to everyone they knew until they spread everywhere.
This was actually thanks to an injured noble who came to their shop the next day:
a few days ago
Shortly after Velzard left the shop Several people entered carrying a man with broken armor, but it looked expensive. The man was bleeding from everywhere and was missing his left hand.
"Quickly give me the best healing potions you have, hurry!" one of them said frantically as he placed the injured person on the ground.
"R_Right a-away!" said Nfirea as he rushed back to get the healing potions that Veldora had handed them a moment ago.He gave them so much that the warehouse was full.
??: 'shit!, I know healing potions can't restore limbs, but we can't find an artifact at this time!.' One of the men thought about what would happen to him if he restored a nobleman's son like that.
While they were all imagining their miserable end because of a noble who thought he was strong and faced many monsters alone even when they threatened him, Nfirea returned carrying a bottle of red liquid.
"I brought the potion, but it's expensive. Are you sure You want it?" He said somewhat worriedly. "Yes, it doesn't matter the price, we'll pay it! Just make sure it works!".
After receiving the signal, he poured the potion into his mouth. In fact, even he was wondering about the quality of this potion.
The answer came in the form of a green light emanating from the man. After a few seconds of glow, the light disappeared, revealing a healthy man with both arms and a puzzled look in his eyes. "Uh, what?"
at present
"After his friends explained the matter to him, they thanked us for saving him and promised to help us promote the potion."Nfirea completed the story.
"I see, so that's how you sold all of this in such a short time," Velzard replied understandingly.
"Now most importantly, what about our deal? How much will my share of the profits be?" She got to the point. She didn't really care about the backstory. All that mattered was the money.
"We were already looking for you for that reason. Please come with me to my grandmother's," Nfirea said, leading the way to the shop.
"Come on, Milim, we'll get some more money, and maybe we can buy our own house!"
Velzard hadn't really cared about where she lived; she hadn't slept or eaten there, so she hadn't needed one before.
But now that she had another person with her, she decided to get their own house "Well, I can't wait to get our own house!" And with that they followed him and chatted on the way until they reached the shop .
As they entered the shop, Nfirea's grandmother met them behind the desk, her usual short stature. "Finally, you're here. Come on, your share is in the back." She didn't waste any time greeting them or asking about the news, but moved on to the main topic. And that's what Velzard liked about it.
When they caught up with her, she pointed to a large bag in the corner. "This is your 35 percent share: out of 500,000, you got 175,000 gold coins." Both sums stunned Velzard, but then she made a discovery.
"Wait a minute. I gave you 5,000 bottles. Based on the selling price, each bottle costs 120 gold coins. With simple math, the profit should be around 600,000 coins. So where did the change go?"
"Tch, you're smarter than I thought. The rest of the money wasn't there. We paid the transportation taxes, the carriages, and the wages of the adventurers who escorted the goods to other cities. We also lost a few potions, so that's what's left," the old woman replied with a sly smile when answering.
"I can accept losing bottles, it's none of our business, but why should I also use my percentage to pay taxes and other things that should be paid for by you?!"She was furious at this blatant theft.
"What do you mean? Didn't we agree that the money would be divided from the net profit? If you doubt anything, you can read the contract again." Her smile widened and she smirked, with a hint of sarcasm in her tone.
"You old hag!" To say that Velzard was angry would be an understatement. But she couldn't do anything because she remembered that this was actually in the contract.
This experience will make her pay close attention before signing anything from now on
