Chapter 41 The World of the Poor



After receiving their rewards, the Onmyoji left one by one. Seeing that there were fewer and fewer people in the shrine, she also left with her shikigami.

Upon reaching the outside of the shrine, Shusui opened the box. Inside were five magatama, a three-star shard, a full bag of gold coins, and a sushi voucher.

"Wow, so many!"

"Do shrine quests often!"

The shikigami were all talking about it.

They painstakingly visit the Orochi once a day, only to obtain two two-star Soul Shards. The adorable kitten occasionally manages to dig up a three-star Soul Shard from the ground, which is like winning the lottery.

If their Soul Set is bad, their attack and health will be low. If their health is low, they won't get gold coins, they won't be able to eat good food, they'll be beaten up everywhere, they can only find some cheap fruits and vegetables to eat in the mountains, and they'll have to endure the disdain of other Onmyoji.

Life is so hard!

The sudden windfall made Qiushui feel she had to buy something. The shrine was at the foot of the mountain, not far from Heian-kyo, so she led her shikigami there to stroll around the town.

Having learned her lesson from being ripped off a few times before, she obediently took her shikigami to the street of shops exclusively run by the system, where prices were fair, quality was excellent, and there was no deception of anyone, young or old.

They walked into a clothing store filled with all sorts of shikigami outfits and wandered around for a while. The clothes were exquisite, custom-made for each shikigami by a designer, and very expensive.

Qiu Shui saw a price tag and realized she needed to use skin vouchers to buy clothes. The system gave her a few skin vouchers when she first logged in, and she received a few more scattered vouchers afterward.

"Excuse me, where can I get this skin voucher?" she asked an NPC who was taking measurements.

"You'll get skin vouchers for completing missions, and you can also exchange them at the general store. Many gift packs also include skin vouchers, dear~"

The NPC was very enthusiastic. Qiu Shui glanced at the skin vouchers worth a little over a hundred yuan in her pocket, took them out, placed them on the counter, and asked, "Do you have any suitable for them?"

"Are those your own shikigami?"

The NPC looked at the shikigami choosing clothes in the shop and shook his head. "We have a few sets of clothes for Yingcao, but we don't specialize in them. You can take them out and make your own. We don't have specially designed clothes for the other shikigami. Sorry."

Her hand holding the skin coupon froze for a moment. She hadn't expected that there wouldn't be any clothes for her shikigami in the huge store. What was going on?

"These are the design sketches for Yingcao's clothes. She hasn't awakened yet, so you can take the sketches and choose one, or you can come back to buy it after she awakens."

NPC suggestion.

"Um……"

Qiu Shui thought for a moment, "No, I'll buy it later, thank you."

Take care, come again next time!

As they walked out, Yingcao's mind was still filled with those clothes. She ran up to Qiushui and grabbed his sleeve.

"Father, when will I awaken?"

"Almost there, just a few more Thunder Drums will be enough, let's wait a little longer."

The awakening of Yingcao has been on the agenda for a long time. After awakening, she will be even more powerful, with more health points and blood bonuses in battle. However, there are not enough awakening materials.

"oh."

Firefly counted on her fingers and realized she was still a few leaves short, while Hair-Eating Demon lagged behind, her eyes drawn to a shop.

It was a very simple shop with two floors, but only the second floor was open. Purple lanterns lit up the outside, giving it a mysterious feel.

"Father!"

He called out to them, indicating that there was a magical shop there. Hearing his voice, Qiu Shui and the others returned and gathered in front of the shop.

What kind of store is this?

"It looks really weird."

There are so many Onmyoji inside.

After glancing around a few times, Qiu Shui, fanning herself, took the lead and walked up the stairs, preparing to go to the second floor.

"Why don't we go up and take a look?"

The shikigami exchanged glances and followed her uphill in a flurry.

Stepping over the threshold, Qiu Shui looked up and saw that the environment inside was dark, with only a few patches of blue, purple, and golden light visible, though these were very rare.

"Feel free to browse around. Just let me know if you find anything you like, and I'll assist you at the counter."

The NPC smiled politely and went to greet the other guests. Qiu Shui nodded and waited for the shikigami to follow.

"Jingle bells—"

"Smack—"

Qiu Shui's ears twitched. What she heard was the sound of gold coins being counted and money bags being tossed around. Could it be a bank?
