There's still one more day before we start the invasion. I was spending time with my girls since they were worried about the possible dangers of starting one. Even if they knew how strong I was, they still couldn't help but worry.
Before we started going to another world, I needed to beef up Nene. There could be a moment if I got careless for some apparent reason, and Nene could be harmed because of my carelessness.
Shopping for more resources has been a common thing for me. I now knew the market price for everything sold in these ranking shops.
"Master~! I wuv you~!"
Nene knew why we were making these trips. I haven't told them why, but Nene knew we would prepare something for her before we started tomorrow's day.
Not only was Nene here, but Reina and Rose were as well. As for Constance, she went to an orphanage. FYI, I prefer not to interact with any kids. They're blunt and unreasonable. Reasoning them would only hurt my head.
"Ah... Master, what are we going to buy?"
Rose here had no idea where we were going. I had told everyone here that we were going shopping and that's it.
"We're doing prep work for tomorrow's event. I can't have any accidents happening."
Rose finally knew why Nene had randomly told me that she loved me. Now that she had established what we were doing, we quickly went to my favorite ranking shop from my great friend Kurt.
"Kurt, it's been a while. Your request will be made in a day. Look forward to it."
Going to the store that Kurt owns, I greeted him. Weeks passed, and it was my first time seeing him since then.
"Been a while, Charles."
Kurt looked like he had something to say but didn't dare to say it. I wonder what I did to make him scared of me. I don't remember doing anything toward Kurt.
"You have something you want to say? As long as it's not offensive, I won't care."
"The request I made, I want to cancel it."
That came as a surprise to me. Kurt did a lengthy talk session on why he hated Ricardo. For him to cancel the request now, something must've happened.
Reina and Nene knew that Kurt had requested something. They didn't know the content but knew he didn't want anyone to find out. On the other hand, Rose had no idea what we were talking about.
"Why would I do that? I don't mind accepting unless you pay more than the deal you make."
For a geass to be null, one must complete the contract, or both of the people in the contract must agree to a cancellation.
"Tsk..." Kurt clicked his tongue once he heard what I said. Maybe that was why he was hesitant to speak up earlier. He knew I would ask more since he knew my greedy nature.
pαndα noνɐ1,сoМ "Fine... Have it your way. What do you want?"
"Do you know what is going on tomorrow?"
There shouldn't be any news leaked about the invasion tomorrow. Kurt here seems rich, so that he might know something.
"Yeah, Ricardo stopped by, and that's why I'm making a full stop to the request I wanted. We had a long talk..."
No wonder why Kurt looks so out of it. He's probably digesting the information he got yesterday. Meeting someone you hated all this time for all these years would take a toll on someone.
I told him I didn't care about what had happened to them. Since Kurt had told me the story, he might as well speak of it some more.
"So, are both of you friends now?"
"No. We cut all remaining ties."
"What a bittersweet story."
Kurt didn't take well to my sarcastic response and glared at me. He then sighed and continued talking.
"Just get on what you want and leave."
"Well, I want you to give anything that will give her protection or anything that could strengthen her."
I brought Nene over and gave Kurt an idea of what she needed. Kurt only stared at her and said nothing.
"Kurt, do you want me to prick your eyes? It's creepy for an old man to stare at a young lady."
Kurt panicked and coughed out loud. He looked flustered by what I said. Nene did her best not to laugh at him.
"I'm... Only thinking about what she needed."
"I have the perfect item for your lover."
Nene was proud to have Kurt compliment her. She really loves it when someone calls her my lover. Kurt then went to one of his shelves, took something, and put it on his desk.
"What's this?"
Kurt had put down a giant red and white cone on the desk. I know it's an artifact, but what does it do?
"It's an artifact that takes half a magical attack and reflects it to where you aim it. So, always hold it when you're in a fight."
This artifact only helps with skill users that use mana directly to attack. It was decent, but not everyone uses mana to attack.
"Give us another defensive artifact, and I will cancel our deal. This artifact is only situational, and I want something that would work regardless of the situation."
"Cheapskate."
Kurt gave in to my pressure and got something else. This time he got something unsavory... I can't tell if he was messing with me. Everyone here stared at Kurt, making him embarrassed.
"Kurt, is this a joke? You brought black panties and expected us not to say anything?"
"Charles... Charles, this isn't your ordinary black panties."
"Of course, it isn't. Otherwise, your head would've been hanged."
Kurt was pale, knowing that I wasn't joking. Everyone stared at him, wondering what this artifact could do.
"This panty could be used as a substitution move. If a lethal attack were to hit, it would only break your panties instead of hurting you."
He told us with a straight face, Kurt, my friend here, wasn't lying. Getting what Kurt gave, we bought more things and canceled our previous agreement. The invasion would start tomorrow, and that's when the fun begins.
