NOVEL NEXT 27. Isn’t so Monotonous
Chloe now has the Free Landscape. She also didn’t change anything in the Tax Function.
Currently, she plays with the Wolfs in the Landscape.
*huff* *huff* *huff*
Chloe has Lost track of Time.
Not on how long she played, but completely how much time passes if she doesn’t watch out.
She could be in here for one or four weeks, without her being able to differentiate.
It’s a scary tough, but being caged in here proved to not be so boring as expected.
Chloe looks at her Balance.
138000, six numbers. It’s crazy.
She got 35000 and 57000 Gold, so 175000 and 285000 Gold.
But after that, I it’s stopped.
Well, what can she expect.
Chloe now has a sudden Sense that someone will come.
She says Goodbye to the Wolfs and opens the Door out to the Free Landscape.
She finds herself in the Reception Room, opposite to the Bedroom.
”Hello, what can I do for you?”
”Ehh? I would first introduce myself, I am Ethan, a so-called World Giant.
Currently I made myself small, so that I fit in her.”
”Small”, for a so-called World Giant is that he is on his knees and bowing down and still as high as a five floor Building.
Besides that, he looks like a muscular common Human.
He is a bit tanned, has brown Eyes and hair. His Face can either look very gentle or very frightening.
He also seems to be a bit confuse on Chloe’s aptitude.
Chloe herself noticed the Abnormality of her Guest and just thought “another Weirdo”.
She also disinterested think about introducing herself.
Her Name is unneeded and when he doesn’t know why he should be here, then he shouldn’t be here.
”Chloe.”
Curt and a bit snappy. Just what could have soured her mood?
”Oh, Okay.”
”…”
”…”
As Ethan waited for Chloe to say something, Chloe waited if he wants to continue or just sit like that.
Now that she thinks of it, wasn’t there some form of apology in Japan, at least stereotypically, called Seiza?
She believes it also was about going down on one’s knees and then bowing the head down.
But she also thinks the Head was down on the Ground and Hands too, supporting the upper Body.
”I have a nice Turtle in my Office, maybe having a stare showdown with him?”
She doesn’t know the Turtle Gender. She made it up.
”Ehh, no. I wanted to commission something.”
”I see.”
”…”
”Scared to talk?”
”No, I just don’t know what to say.”
”Well, surprise or not, I am not Mind-reading you, so I can’t know what you want.”
But I believe I could. Is what she thinks in Mind.
”Well, I want a Giant.”
”…”
”Yeah.”
”Well, I can do that.”
”Really?”
”Yes.”
”…”
”…”
”…”
”…”
”… I Really don’t make you do hast, but do you already have Plans?”
*slap*
Chloe began to Facepalm herself.
He can’t mean that serious. A Giant. A GIANT.
A five Meter or Ten Meter Giant, would 2 already do or something like that.
Can they have blue skin or something or what. I won’t read his Mind. I don’t know Potential Consequences.
”Can I be I did something wrong?”
”You want a Giant, right?”
”Yeah, is that wrong?”
”Wait a Minute.”
Chloe is opening the door to the Free Landscape and Whistling.
The Wolfs seem to understand her intention and both came running.
”What do you think they are?”
”Wolfs?”
”And which one would one receive one who orders a Wolf?”
”I don’t know.”
”What a coincidence, I also wouldn’t know if they would be for sale.”
”?”
”You make a face like you don’t understand.”
”I don’t understand.”
”Is that big Head just for show or preoccupied that your muscles don’t begin to make a Fiesta?”
Now Chloe is completely Snappy. She choose a roundabout way, because it felt too stupid to explain.
Shows, he is too stupid. And he is the one who wants something.
”Do you want a Giant that two or twenty Metres high, or higher, or something in between?
I don’t know what you want! And I am supposed to make what you commission!”
“How much is a Metre?”
”…”
That left Chloe stunned. He maybe has a good excuse why he doesn’t know how much a metre is.
But the underlying Problem is that he doesn’t show how tall the Giant is supposed to be.
Just showing with his hand would have been fine.
”Just show how tall you want them. We can raise the ceiling if needed.”
The Giant finally did something productive with an ashamed expression.
His Hands stop roughly 3,20 Metres over the Ground.
”I believe a Feind stayed that its 10,5 Feet high.”
”Don’t come with the imperial System.
Do you know how shitty it is to convert, even inside the System, one unit to another one.”
Ethan showed a Proud expression, that even seems to make fun of Chloe in a bit malicious way.
What he got as an Answer was an hostile Hissing, which mad him flinch.
Ethan, seeing the gaze that’s seems to prod about how to best skewer him, decided his business is concluded.
He tries to go out of the Door, crawling surprisingly fast to the now square-formed door.
The Door goes all the Way to the ceiling, so he doesn’t face problems there.
What is a Problem is the following Message.
| Warning! Do you want to end the meeting preliminary, without conducting any Business? |
He thought the design looked cool, bringing out how much of a Danger he is.
Know it looks a bit ironic.
The Woman, Chloe, isn’t that scary. He overreacted, to be honest.
But his invincibility is gone.
When he is in a Dungeon, even just visiting other Dungeon Master, they are normally unapproachable.
No intruder can ever harm them, ever. Only Dungeon Master who agree to fight.
No exception. And he was always hard to harm. That at one point someone will actually inflict pain to him!
He never imagined. And because of cowardice, he accepted the offer and began to hide as a Dungeon Master.
He even got prideful, since most Dungeon Master cagoule actually harm him, but he has a Protection of being a Dungeon Master.
And now, he can’t handle it when someone shows slight hostility when he doesn’t has his invincible shield.
”That would be 5000 Gold as prepayment. Take it or not, then leave.”
He does, without Hesitation.
And so, Chloe scammed him over 1000 Gold.
Not particularly hurtful, but it’s something.
