Blessing Of Yuri Goddess

Chapter 14: Chapter 13 - The Magic Books



Mio and I sat waiting for Mio's Mother to change her clothes. Because of our little fight, Mio's Mother uniform was messy and full of small cuts.

"Lily-sama, please enjoy this warm tea," said Mio.

The table that was previously empty has now turned into a small dining table filled with lunch dishes. Usually, this table is used to discuss quests and strategy tactics by adventurer groups. But, during lunchtime. This table is used by the Adventurer Guild staff as a place to eat their lunch.

"Um, Mio.. sorry about what happened earlier," because of my bad feelings after ruining Mio's Mother uniform. I apologized to Mio. My attitude towards Mio's Mother might have been a little excessive by destroying her work uniform.

"Uhm?? Something in your mind, Mio?"

Mio just stared at me and was amazed.

"Oh! That match earlier? That was amazing, Lily-sama!" praised Mio.

Eh?

Why did Mio suddenly praise me?

"I didn't expect Lily-sama to have such abilities. Moreover, fast movements like that are very difficult. If I may ask, where did Lily-sama learn that technique?"

Mio's question made me feel awkward and a thin sweat came from my forehead.

"Uhm.. Uh.." I found it very difficult to explain my situation with a series of words.

"Uhm.. I-I observed Mio who was practicing swordsmanship secretly" I was forced to say this little lie. Based on the information given by the Yurification System, Mio liked practicing sword techniques.

"D-Did Lily-sama realize it all this time?"

"W-Was I too noisy in the morning?"

Morning?

Has Mio been practicing sword techniques in the morning all this time?

"I'm sorry, Lily-sama. My training must have disturbed you in the morning, Lily-sama" Mio said while bowing to me.

"That's fine with me. Uhm.. since I already know about Mio's training in the morning, wouldn't it be better if we train together?" I suggested this training a little because of my guilt after lying to Mio.

Mio immediately stood up from her hunched position and looked at me with a wide smile on her face.

Joint training doesn't sound bad, right?

Moreover, Mio's abilities will develop further if she uses the effects of the Yurification System.

This reminds me of something, what was the reward from the previous Yurification Quest Mio?

Mio's Mother handed Mio over to me, is that what Mio Ownership means?

So, from now on. I'm responsible for taking care of Mio's development as my own.

This is a very heavy task, gaining Mio's Mother trust has already made me dizzy.

I drank Mio's warm tea, as usual.

In addition making tea in bad shape, the fragrant aroma of the tea really good, Mio was able to strengthen the quality of the tea leaves that spread perfectly even in this situation.

"Um! Delicious!" Hearing my praise, Mio smiled proudly.

"Sorry it took a while, finding the right size took a lot of time" Mio's Mother appeared from behind me.

"Let's eat together!" Mio's Mother invited.

Mio, Mio's Mother, and I immediately enjoyed our lunch. This food is simple but this different atmosphere makes me realize something, eating with someone feels more delicious than alone. Usually, I only eat after my family has finished occupying the dining room.

Eating with them is very difficult for me, especially with my father's cold treatment towards me. Compared to eating with them, eating with Mio's family like this makes me see a new happiness into this world. The warmth and comfort of eating with someone special.

"It seems... this scene is not bad either."

"Did you hear that? Our Old Devil handed over her Princess to the chosen Knight!"

"Isn't that her first record of defeat?"

"That's right, this is her first time losing!"

"We have to immortalize this moment in our memories!"

The group of adventurers around us watched our lunch, being the center of attention was very embarrassing for me. I'm not used to this kind of stare.

"Hey!! What did you say?" Mio's mother stared at them with a cold stare.

Receiving that stare, the group of adventurers around us also moved away.

"Now we can enjoy lunch without any disturbance."

We continued our lunch in silence. After the main course was finished and there were only small snacks left, Mio's Mother started a conversation about the sword technique I used.

"Lily-sama, if I may ask, where did Lily-sama learn such a technique?" Mio's Mother asked.

This question was very similar to Mio's question.

"I-I was just observing Mio while she was practicing," I replied in a small tone.

"Just observing Mio but being able to master it, isn't Lily-sama a genius in this case?" Mio's Mother praised.

It was because of the Yurification System and our very good relationship. I wasn't a genius in that regard.

"Could it be that Lily-sama came to the Adventurer's Guild to become an adventurer?"

"Cough!!" Mio who was sitting next to me choked after hearing this question.

"Lily-sama!!" Mio panicked and stared at me.

I shook my head, shouldn't Mio know that I was just following her?

"I want to find something for my little sisters, thats why I am here.." I replied.

"Hmm.. a gift for Alice-sama and Alyssa-sama?" Mio's Mother asked.

"Um!" Mio's Mother seemed very sensitive to my situation.

"So, this is the reason why Lily-sama is here while Marquess Rommel's family is at the Temple Altar attending a religious ceremony?" Mio's Mother muttered softly.

"I more or less understand the situation, Lily-sama. What kind of gift is Lily-sama looking for? Maybe I can help," Mio's Mother offered her help to me.

I didn't want to waste this small opportunity and the amount of money I brought hadn't decreased yet. So, there was no reason to refuse it, right?

"I want to buy a magic book" I replied.

Hearing my answer, Mio's ears twitched slightly.

"A magic book? That's very easy to find. Some adventurers are selling magic books here, maybe Lily-sama will have a hard time choosing magic books rather than looking for them. If Lily-sama has trouble, I can help you choose some magic books that are suitable for Alice-sama and Alyssa-sama."

"Um, please help me!" I immediately handed the money I brought to Mio's Mother.

Braak!!

The money bag I brought sounded very heavy and attracted the attention of the adventurers around me.

"If Lily-sama was an ordinary noble girl, I would advise you to be careful when carrying this much money. But, since Lily-sama can beat me. I guess... there is nothing to worry about."

"Mio, take care of all this! And Lily-sama.." Mio's Mother extended her hand to me.

I immediately took the outstretched hand and Mio's Mother led me into the Adventurer's Guild building.

In the middle of this short journey, I realized the difference between one adventurer and another.

The Adventurer Guild divides adventurers into different classes such as SSS class for top adventurers and become kingdom heroes, SS class for the kingdom's main military force, S class to overcome high-level dangerous monsters, A class for veteran adventurers, B class for advanced adventurers, and C to G class which are divided based on their contributions and abilities.

All of that can be seen in their weapons and armor.

Mio's Mother took me to the trading area managed by the Adventurer Guild. There was a shop where the place was filled with piled up books and an Elf girl standing reading a book among the piles of books.

"Good afternoon, Lisa. Do you have some free time to see me?" Mio's Mother asked.

The Elf girl closed the book in her hand and looked at the two of us.

"Eh? Helena? Since when did you have another child?"

"She is not my child but the First Daughter of the Marquess Rommel family, Lily-sama."

The Elf girl panicked a little when she heard that.

"W-Welcome to my little shop, Lily-sama. Sorry if it's messy like this" Realizing my status as an upper noble, the Elf girl changed her attitude to be more formal in front of me.

Is my father's noble status that big?

Forget that, I have to focus on finding a suitable magic book for Alice and Alyssa among this messy pile of books.
