Chapter 7
Right after she left the adventurers guild to kill some goblins she realized she didn't have a weapon on her. So she went to the smithy across the road to pick up a weapon. She decided to get a dagger since a sword was more specialized and a bow was definitely not gonna work. All the other weapons she decided were also too specialized so really a dagger was her best bet.
After purchasing her dagger she once again started towards the goblins. As she walked she went over Mr.Snuggles abilities just so she knew what she was working with. Shell as self explanatory, basically he went into his shell and defended himself. Then there was elemental bite, he can infuse his bite with any element he wants. The best ability he had was elemental control. He was able to control any element he wanted and do whatever he wanted with it. That was going to be very helpful in battle.
As they walked to the goblins Hestia noticed that there were a few other people walking towards the goblins also. She knew that there were going to be some people at the goblins since it's a beginner quest, so this was expected. She looked around and saw that no one else had a companion. Guess there aren't too many tamers around here.
Getting to a goblin camp farther away than the others she watched for a bit to see if they would be hard to kill or not. It seemed it would be easy so she walked around the camp and found a lone goblin. Hestia picked up a rock and hit the goblins head with it to get its attention. Placing Mr.Snuggles down and placing a buff on herself for speed she took off to the goblin who started running at her. She dodged to the left when the goblin swung down at her from the top of its head to the ground.
When the goblin finished its swing it lost its balance and staggered forward a bit. This gave Hestia a chance to swing at it with her dagger. She hit the goblin across its neck and blood started gushing out of its neck. Hestia jumped back so the blood wouldn't hit her and watched as the goblin bled out on the ground wiggling around. It eventually stopped moving and the blood stopped flowing leaving just the goblin corpse.
The quest said that she needed to collect the goblin crystals to show proof that she defeated them. So she butchered the goblin until she found the crystal in the chest of it. She pulled it out and put it in her pocket. Then made a mental note to get a bag or figure out if they had spatial storage here. She estimated that she had room for about 9 more fitting 5 in each pocket. For the last 9 she had Mr.Snuggles defeat them.
He easily slashed all their throats with a wind blade and used wind to bring the crystals over to them. Hestia congratulated Mr.Snuggles on his first kill and pet his head. Mr.Snuggles seemed pleased with the praise and rubbed his head against her hand. Hestia picked him up and placed him on her shoulder. They then returned to the adventurers guild. Handing over the crystals Hestia asked some questions.
"So if I want a bag or spatial storage where would I go?"
"If you want a bag then go to the general store. And if you want a spatial storage then go to the mages tower. Your payment for today is 10 coppers. Any other questions?" The receptionist lady seemed nice so she tried her luck with other questions she had.
"If I wanted more information about the land here, where would I go? I'm asking because I was sick up until recently and don't know too much." She continued telling the same lie she did earlier to the guard to explain her low level.
"Well if it were me I would go to the information guild but if you don't want to talk to people then I would go to the library. Any other questions?" The receptionist's smile seemed to be getting tight so she decided to leave it at that and find information at the places she told her about. Hestia thanked the receptionist and left the guild to get a spatial bag. She asked a random person on the street where she could find the mages tower. They told her it's down the street closer to the castle.
Hestia noticed that the layout of the city isn't as complex as she originally thought, it's got one straight path down the middle in a cross. Then there are streets going off each line and connecting around in a circle. Most things can be found on the main cross while the side streets usually had housing and little shops. The cross doesn't connect at the castle though, there is a circle around the castle that has nobles houses and fancier shops. Then the castle in the middle.
Hestia arrived at the mages tower after a few moments, she estimated about 10 minutes Earth time. When she went inside she was amazed at how classy looking the inside was. This place was like a 5 star restaurant compared to a little diner, the diner being the adventurers guild. There were floating lights and books all over the place. She assumed they were spell tomes or something of the sort. Walking up to the counter she talked to the receptionist there.
"Hello, I was told that if I want spatial storage I could come here to get it?" The guy at the counter looked up at her from what he was reading and smiled.
"Yes, of course. Spatial storage spells cost about 10 gold. We can do a payment plan if you don't have the gold right now. There are multiple sizes also. 10 gold is for the basic size, 20 gold for large, and 30 gold for extra large. Which would you like?" The guy gestured to behind him with a painting of how large each one would be compared to each other.
"Hmm, I think I would like the extra large." Hestia pulled out 30 gold and slid it over to the guy. He thanked her then went into the back to grab the spell tome. When she was standing there she looked around at everyone and noticed that they were looking at her. She was confused and looked at herself realizing that she hadn't bathed or changed since she got there. It was a miracle that the guy at the desk hadn't said anything to her.
The guy came back out with her book and she left as fast as she could. She needed to get new clothes and a bath asap. Looking around Hestia spotted a clothes store a bit down the road and sped walked over to it. Entering the store she looked around seeing a lot of what fantasy adventurer clothes would look like. She decided on a pair of black pants kinda like leggings and a black t-shirt. To go over that she got a metal breastplate that covered her boobs only then a very thin metal skirt that protected her upper thighs. To finish off her outfit she got a pair of thigh high boots made of metal and some gauntlets for her hands.
Hestia didn't put the outfit on yet since she still needed a bath. Heading back to the inn she asked about a bath and the innkeeper laughed telling her it was about time. Hestia blushed at that and hurried off to the bath area that the inn had. She set Mr.Snuggles outside the bath area then she rinsed off. Feeling very refreshed she changed into her new outfit. She felt very stylish and felt better now that she looked decent.
Now that she had herself sorted out she decided to go look for information. Information would be key to getting back to Earth for her revenge along with getting her level back up to max. Her first destination would be lunch though. Her stomach was rumbling and she needed some food soon. Exiting the bath area she picked up Mr.Snuggles and set him on her shoulder. Then she went to the inn eating area and sat down waiting for her food. As soon as she was finished eating she was going to head to the information guild to get everything she needed to know. Finishing her lunch of soup and bread with water she headed out for the information guild. Hestia was hoping that she would be able to find information on the world or even other people showing up at level 1.
When she exited the inn she noticed that at the gate there was a commotion happening. Wondering what it was, she went over there to check it out hoping that it might be someone from her world that didn't know how to lie and started something. She really wanted someone from her world to be here so she wouldn't feel so alone.
