NOVEL NEXT Chapter 32: Far Too Expensive!!!
(Celia’s POV)
It goes without saying, but the store section of the System really was just like an online shopping market. It was very easy to use, and I am sure that even people in such an era that this dimension takes place in could figure it out as well.

Reclaim Power Crystal/SSS+ Grade/10,000,000 SIP’s.

June: “…”
Celia: “…”
June and I debated about if this item was a joke, a trap, or just the real deal. The price was crazy expensive, and I doubt that even near the very end of the game, that someone would even have half enough to get this item. In that sense, we decided that it was just a petty joke item.
June: “Do you want to buy some of those level up crystals?” She asked with a curious tone.
With that water making it far easier for me to level up, using those crystals might be a good idea for June, but not me. I mean, the math of them doesn’t even make a little bit of sense. In fact, most of the expensive items really just seem like traps, or things that people aren’t supposed to ever really buy.
As for the math… Well, it isn’t that complicated to explain, so I will do that shortly. Basically, if you buy the Level Up Crystal that only gives you one level, then it would cost 495. Buy 1000 of them, and it would cost you 495,000 SIP’s to buy. But the Level Up Crystal that gives you 1000 levels up, is only 10,000 SIP’s. What’s up with that math?
Celia: “June, explore your new Status for a bit. I will do some thinking of my own.” I advise.
June: “Okay. After this, I will be heading to bed. Apparently, evolving is very exhausting…” She agreed with a slight sigh.

Celia: “…”
This is just fucking unfair at this point! Am I not going to get banned for cheating? Even after evolving, I only need 150 more EXP to level up? What the hell… This is so crazy. At this point, buying those crystals would be endlessly pointless for me to do. Even with the oddly more SIP’s that I got after evolving. June’s Status just made me sad to see…

Thud!
If June didn’t seem that upset before, the woman was actually furious now. Pouting, she went to her side of the two-suite room, and then she slammed the door behind her. June, I am so, soooo sorry! It isn’t your fault that you aren’t as favored by silly higher beings as I am…
After she left, I was lost in thought about what I should be doing. Clearly, those level crystal thingies would be a major waste for me to purchase. But those EXP multipliers will probably be a good investment for me…
Knocking on June’s door, I informed her that I would be leaving for a bit. Since I had more than enough Mana, and could use magic, it was time for me to fulfill a promise that I made a while back.
A Trip Later.
Saren: “…”
Remi: “…”
Mary: “…”
Rie: “…”
Celia: “What’s with those looks, everyone?” I ask with a confused tone.
For fun, I showed them my Status. The effect was… not what I was expecting them to do. Instead, it was almost as if they were deciding if they should kneel down, and worship me as a Goddess. Well, I was originally a Supreme Goddess… Huh, maybe I should get some followers once this game is over?…
Saren: “Celia… did you come here to gloat to us?” She asked.
Celia: “Gloat? No, no. Rather, I came here to teach you conception magic. Here, I even wrote some scrolls.” I say, handing out pieces of rolled up paper to the women present.
In fact, prior to coming here, and on my off time when I wasn’t doing quests with June, I was making these scrolls. At the moment, I have written 10,000 scrolls, more than enough for the spell to get passed around. Truly, storage rings are a must. I was even able to store the storage ring that held the scrolls within another storage ring. Goddess, I love magic!!!
Saren: “The spell is this simple?…” She asked with an unsure tone.
Celia: “It is. Which is why I am still confused why it wasn’t a spell that is commonly known.” I reply.
Mary: “…”
Rie: “…”
Looking at each other, the two mothers started to laugh. What was so funny about this? Shouldn’t they be happy for their daughters???
Mary: “Celia, this spell is the completed version of a known spell.” She finally informed after the laugh ended.
Celia: “Then why did you all need me to teach it?” I ask with a raised eyebrow.
Rie: “The spell is depicted within an ancient ruin. Long ago, there was a major war against lesbians, with some religions claiming them to be evil. In one such ruin, this spell is written on a wall. But the wall was damaged beyond repair, with the wall containing the spell being mostly destroyed.” She explained.
Mary: “Yeah, it is funny that, even in a different universe, the spell is the same. This must mean that even higher beings see us lesbians as something not evil.” She said with a smile.
Saren: “Us?” She repeated with a raised eyebrow.
Mary: “Yes, us. Remi, Saren. Rie is my wife who I have been married to for a very long time. With the spell now known once more, there is no reason to hide our sexuality.” She finally admitted.
Remi: “Then…” She said, not finishing her words.
Mary: “That’s right. Remi, you have my full permission to marry my daughter. We put a lot of trust into Celia, and that paid off in the end. The wedding is already planned, and will be carried out in a month.” She explained with a motherly tone.
Saren: “Mother… thank you so much!” She said, happily hugging her mother.
Mary: “Yes, yes, I know that you’re happy, dear. But Remi, do not get my daughter pregnant until after the wedding.” She said with a stern tone.
Remi: “Sex is still permitted, though, right?” She asked in reply.
Mary: “If you keep your desire to seed my daughter in check, then yes.” She agreed.
Saren: “…”
Wow… even without an effect, I still help lesbians out. Truly, I am a blessed being for lesbians! Is it wrong to love myself?
Celia: “Okay, well, this is good and all. But I should head back to my work.” I say.
Mary: “Celia, might you stick around to teach others? Just a few scrolls aren’t enough to spread the spell…” She requested.
Celia: “Just a few? Ah, right. I forgot to give you this ring.” I say, taking the ring out of my storage ring, and handing it to Mary.
Mary: “What’s in it?” She asked.
Celia: “More scrolls.” I answer.
Remi: “Again, we would like for you to teach more people, as using some scrolls is limited. Not everyone can learn spells quickly, you know. With just a few, having to let someone learn the spell using a scroll will take a decent while…” She repeated Mary’s request.
Celia: “Huh? Oh, inside that ring is 10,000 conception magic scrolls. That should be enough.” I say with a nonchalant tone.
Remi: “…”
Saren: “…”
Mary: “…”
Rie: “…”
After they confirmed my words were the truth, they invited me to Saren and Remi’s wedding. Of course, I will be attending it when it comes around. Talking some more, I then left to go back to June. I could fly now, so getting around was a literal breeze these days. Goddess, I love magic! Goddess, I love magic! Goddess, I love magic! Important things should be repeated thrice, you see. Ah… that is actually four times now…
