"Master, is something the matter?" asked Tesse, tilting her head to the side in a curious gesture.
'Buying this item while I have no idea of its function is a huge gamble. However, will I ever get a chance like this again?' pondered Gray, ignoring Tesse's question.
'Sure, buying elixirs seems like the safer option. However, I'm fairly certain I can gain a 1000 Arcanian points without too much effort. And this item might greatly increase my fighting power, which is something I'll need if I'm ever to hunt a noble without outside help'
"Master?"
"Then it's settled," murmured Gray as he tapped on theNew Vautis Visual Systemoption within the item shop's list.
A stream of red light circled around him, engulfing him in a warm radiance before his vision went black for a split second.
"Hmm, interesting," murmured Gray, looking at the many tabs that now floated within his vision.
"Is something the matter?" asked Tesse, worry fraught on her face.
"It's just like a game," whispered Gray, raising his index finger in the air as if trying to tap on something.
[Player stats] read the pop-up that came into Gray's view after tapping a button with the same name.

"It seems I'm no longer human. That explains the increased bloodlust," murmured Gray before tapping the pop-up out of view.
"Go into your item shop and buy the New Vautis Visual System" ordered Gray.
"Understood master," replied Tesse, dropping the pile of gemstones to the ground.
A stream of yellow light circled around her, briefly covering her in a faint glow before dimming.
"Tap on the Player stats option and read them out to me,"

"Your stats aren't that far below mine without the effects of the suit," murmured Gray in a ponderous tone.
"Take the suit off the Orc noble. I want to test something," ordered Gray, prompting Tesse to remove the suit off the noble's shriveled-up body without a moment's delay.
"It's just as I thought," commented Gray as the suit shrunk to Tesse's size as she held it out in front of him.
'Although the Goblin noble and I were nearly the same size, I often pondered why the suit fit me so perfectly. So it really does resize itself to fit the weare-'
"Master," interrupted Tesse, a confused expression on her face.
"What is it?"
"It seems the suit's specification popped up on my... on my screen?" replied Tesse, struggling to make out the last part.
"And what does it say?"
[Ranger Suit: Orc origin]
[Rank: Corporal]
[Adds x1.6 stat multiplier.]
[Negates weak damage and tier 1 spells and below.]
"So the stat multiplier is higher, huh. No wonder it felt harder to defeat even though its swordsmanship was subpar compared to the Goblin noble," commented Gray, before unzipping his suit.
"M-Master," blushed Tesse, a small tinge of lust visible on her face.
"Wear this," ordered Gray before grabbing the suit in Tesse's hands.
'Master's warmth,' shivered Tesse in excitement as she felt Gray's residue body heat from the Goblin noble's suit.
"This is good," whispered Gray, confirming that his stats had increased appropriately.
"Based on the way they retreated, they're probably waiting for us outside,"
"Using the T-1 anti-tank riflein close combat isn't plausible. Take this instead," said Gray, handing her his silver sword.
"I couldn't possibly tak-"
"Using a static weapon doesn't really fit my fighting style," interrupted Gray, before unleashing the Mighty sword from his mark, grabbing it in his right hand.
The mighty sword had strange runes etched along its length, with a circular depression at the crossguard.
"Now the finishing touches," whispered Gray as he placed the brown gemstone in its slot.
[Mighty Sword Blood Replica: Earth shatter Enchantment] read the pop-up that appeared into view.
[Blood drain: drains the blood of foes it slays.]
[Earth shatter: unleashes powerful shockwaves within the ground, causing it to rupture.]
[Earth's curse: Prevents automatic healing until it has been dispelled.]
'This will do well for AOE damage, however, I'll use that enchantment as a last resort.'
'Although I can claim the souls of those that fall to the rupture, I won't be able to see their faces or bathe in their blood if they fall in,' smiled Gray, his blood rushing at the thought of seeing their fear fraught faces.
"Let's head o- hmm where will I put these gemstones," hesitated Gray, after remembering the pile of gemstones that lay on the floor.
"How convenient," smiled Gray as he noticed an inventory tab in his newly augmented vision.
A new pop-up emerged into view after tapping on it.
[StoreMighty Sword Blood Replica: Earth shatter Enchantment?] prompted the pop-up.
Gray crouched over, placing his hand on the pile of gemstones.
[Store x116 Orc soulstones?] prompted the pop-up.
Once Gray tapped the accept option, all 116 gemstones disappeared leaving sparkles of blue dust behind.
The appropriate amount showed up in his inventory, forming a smile on his face.
"Let's head out," ordered Gray, placing the crimson red long sword into the scabbard on his back.
Tesse followed suit, placing the silver sword into the scabbard on her back as well, before picking the cub into her arms.
[Tower clearer Title has been added to Title list.] announced the voice in Gray and Tesse's mind as they walked through the portal.
"What's going on here?" asked Gray as he stared at the state of the town.
The ground was scorched black, with several charred corpses littered about. Buildings had been reduced to rubble, and the once crowded portal was now left desolate.
"I found survivors," shouted a slender-looking male.
He wore a green tunic and had a bow on his back. His high cheekbones and long pointy ears made Gray aware of what he was at first glance.
However, unlike the usual amiable nature they were depicted with in fantasy media, this one was covered in what looked to be blood, giving him a dangerous aura.

[System Information.]
God's salvation
This is currently Tesse's one and only ability.
As of yet not much about it is known about it, however it has shown to have tremendous healing effects. Capable of saving a person mere inches away from death.
Its side effects however increase in proportion to the damage healed, draining Tesse of mana points, and eating away at her life force if the mana points she currently has are insufficient.
Tesse has grown accustomed to the side effects of her ability, allowing her to will through the nausea.
