The Voice On The Rival's Head

The Voice On The Rival's Head
Chapter 5: A Job



Verite and Mefras checked what they needed and searched the item in catalogues and store displays, one after another they found the material they were looking for.


The material they are looking for is wood that has the ability to be imbued with mana currents, iron bolts that can connect the wood, which is, a special knife for carving the pathway is used to direct the flow of mana around the construct and in the end the magic stone is used as the core of the construct, that is the minimum thing you need to make a Thaumaturgy Construct.


Verite managed to find everything they needed, and as Verite said everything Verite could buy with his money without spending his savings, probably except which Stone they did not find.


It was possible that the Mana stone was stored in the back room, she would have to ask Miss Gloom later, while Verite would do her job.


He waited as a kasair in the shop, waiting for the buyers to come.... An hour later no one came, maybe the day was quiet or not many people did Thaumaturgy.


...


'Bored?' Ask mefras.


'You can see for yourself.' Verite sat in a quiet room.


'hahaha at least you have me as a voice in your head.'


"I don't know if it's a good thing or a scary thing.' Tell Verite, his tone is not serious.


'Honey we don't have a smartphone, if I used to work part-time bias while watching or playing games fitting again waiting.' Say Mefras.


'Games?' Ask Verite.


'Yes, I often play exchange cards while waiting for the buyer to come, unfortunately I can not show you the card, many of them have a cool picture.' Mefras thought about his favorite black dragon card.


'Huh... Is the image of the card a black dragon surrounded by an ice aura and looks like an undead?' Verite asked, suddenly the picture appeared in his mind.


'yes... How do you want to know?' Mefras asked, 'Could it be...?'


'Yes, try to imagine your image again, maybe you can not only send words but also images of images in his mind.' Get Verite.


'All right, I'll try.'


'...Rainbow cat?'


'...Legged fish?'


'What did you send to me?' Verite asked, a music ringing out of nowhere by arriving. 'Music?'


'How about this?'


A moving picture and music rang in Verite's head.


'Wow, this is cool.' Tell Verite he's a red metal giant fighting a monster much bigger than him and the music that makes his blood hot.


'That's cool, really cool.' Say Verite. 'You got another one like that?'


So it looks like what I sent came to your mind? 'Ask Mefras.'


'Yes.' Answer Verite. 'Wait first... Is that why you want to make a construct thaumaturgy?' Ask Verite.


'For the most part yes, I just want to have my own body if I can.' Tell Mefras, 'We can make it as cool as possible, like that robot.'


'That's called a robot, right?' Ask Verite


'Robot, mecha mechs have many names, I like to call them robots.' Clearly Mefras, his hobbies while still alive came out.


'any more like that?' Ask Verite. 'I want to see it again, you have more.'


'There are, instead I have more stories you can watch, but...' Mefras.


'But?' Continue Verite.


'You must serve the one who has just entered first.' Tell Mefras instantly Verite instantly realizes someone has entered the store, as if his attention has been diverted after seeing the image of Mefras.


'Welcome to Bloom and Gloom, can I help you?' I can greet the buyers who entered.


The person who entered looked like a person who was over forty years old, he was wearing a formal dress with a glass eye glass do his face, he said, he has a short beard that looks sharp and his face has several wrinkles that indicate his age.


'It looks like Gloom has another new employee, I hope you can survive the previous victim.' Tell the old man, Verite raised his forehead.


"Victim?" Ask Verite.


"Let it be, this is the stuff I need." That guy gave Verite a list of ingredients.


Verite stared at his note, he recognized all the items in this note, he started taking things one by one by heart, put it into the canton and wrap the goods that need to be wrapped after everything is finished he presented the goods to the buyer.


"This sir, it's 350 silver in total." Verite told the buyer.


After the man left Verite recorded the items purchased and the amount of the price in the book of accountants that Miss Gloom provided.


"Done, this task is not so bad." Tell Verite with her mouth.


'Ohhh Verite, you will learn not to say that...' Mefras warn.


'What do you mean?' Verite asked, confused.


'you'll see later.'


ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ


"huh, huh..." Verite fell sitting on the cashier's desk chair, a few minutes after the first buyer arrived the buyer's throng came, if seen the people who entered not much, but the things they bought the amount was so large.


Verite was overwhelmed looking for items while recalling orders and calculating prices, fortunately Mefras was in his head to raise Verite about what the customers ordered, otherwise he might have messed up.


'Look at what I said, don't seduce destiny.' Say Mefras. 'Especially if you become a doctor or a police officer, never say 'this day is silent ya'.


'Well, I'm not going to seduce fate anymore, the important thing is we're done.' Verite agreed even if he didn't know what the cops were.


as they spoke the back room door swung open, Helian came out who seemed like someone who was made to run a marathon non-stop and behind her came out Miss Gloom who wore her usual look.


Verite looked at Helian worriedly, 'You okay what Helian is?'


Helian turned to Verite, her breathing gesa. 'Ak..I'm fine, just need a little rest.'


'Sit down, you did well.' Miss Gloom cut in, told Helian to take a break.


"And you, how? Any problems with the buyer?" Miss Gloom Asks Verite.


"No, everything's good." Answer Verite.


Miss Gloom approached and checked the notes and money at the cashier.


"Good." She smiles. "You can come back here tomorrow." He said, he took some silver coins and gave them to Verite. "It's your pay today, after this yellow boy breaks you please go home."


"Yes... Miss Gloom, can't I trade my pay for some of the materials I need?" Verite asked.


"what do you need?"


"Yes, all I need is..." Verite mentioned the item items he needed to make the thaumaturgy construct.


"That stuff..." Miss Gloom held back she said. "You want to make Thaumaturgy a construct?"


"Yes, is there a problem?" Ask Verite.


"There's no problem, but you should be able to use Thaumaturgy to make a construct, you can use it?" Ask Miss Gloom.


"No." Verite Refuse. "I was only interested after reading the book that Mr. Jardi gave me, I wanted to make it and maybe if I could use Thaumaturgy I could bring it to life." Verite.


Miss Gloom was silent for a while. "Alright, but Which Stone is more expensive than the others, I'll take three days of your work, you still want?"'


"All right." Verite agrees.


"You can get all the ingredients now except for the stone, it took me three days to prepare the stone for you." Say Miss Gloom.


"All right." Verite agreed, he was also still willing to hone his Thaumaturgy skills before trying to do complex things, so this only gave him more time to practice.


After that Verite walked home, taking the exhausted Helian with her.


"What are you doing with Miss Gloom behind Helian?" Verite asked, he could not imagine what made him so tired


"You knew... Ordinary hard work..." Say Helian. Lifting heavy goods. What about you? easy to be a cashier?" ask Helian.


"It's not hard, it's just tiring and it requires concentration, I have to remember the order and bring the goods quickly, it'll be easier if someone helps." Say Verite.


"Maybe I can help you later, he said I'll have some free time after the first day." Bargain Helian. "By the way you're interested in Thaumaturgy, aren't you?" tanyakanya.


"Yes, the book that Mr. Jardi gave me was really interesting, I'll probably take a Thaumaturgy class once I reach the age of twelve." Answer Verite.


"Huh Thaumaturgy is so interesting, huh?" Ask Helian.


"Thaumaturgy itself is interesting, but what really makes me interested in it is what you can achieve with thaumaturgy." Tell Verite, his mind goes back to the red giant that Mefras showed Verite, he might be able to make the same with Thaumaturgy.


"What can we do with him huh.." said Helian, seeming to think deeply.


Their walk was quiet until they returned to Blooming Bud.
