BRAGR) Shopping Part 1

After leaving the trouble behind, we finally reached our first destination, the supermarket! All eyes were on us as we walked into the place. This was only natural, I guess, since we were technically no longer human. Although, while a certain maid did look human, she still drew attention due to her holding her sword in her hand. “Hilde, can you put the sword away please?”

“Master, what if that bastard appears and tries to shoot you again? How would I be ready not only to block the bullet but to stab him in the head?” Hilde was truly angry on my behalf, which was very heartwarming, but, I do not think that idiot has the ability to teleport, and if he ever opened fire like that again in public, he would not be getting off easily. This time, he might, but if he actually hurt someone while trying to kill me, he would be in a lot of trouble. I guess this is the good thing about the world having certain laws at this time.

“Hilde, it’s fine. Officer Higgins dragged that idiot away. So put your sword away.” This time, I stated my order more sternly. I did not like giving orders like this, but it had to be done.

Hilde seemed to twitch at my words before slowly sheathing her sword. “Sorry, Master, I was not trying to go against your orders.”

I shook my head and smiled as I reached up and patted the paid on the head. “You don’t need to be sorry. I know you are worrying about my safety.”

“Master…” Hilde began to tear up as if I said something very emotional. She was very strange sometimes. It was on this thought I heard a faint voice in my head: “That she is…”

“Zoe, how should we do this?” Angel asked as she grabbed a cart for me. Each one of us now had a cart sitting in front of us.

“First, let’s get all their non-perishable foods from out back. We can pay for them and then send them over to Silvie, who can then store them in the cottage. This is the best way to give extra storage.” I replied. I had thought about it on my way over here after dealing with the idiot. If we used the game world to store food, we could have as much space as we wanted by using barriers to keep them safe.

“Master, I can create a storage facility under the cottage. It will keep out things out of view and allow you to stock up on as much stuff as you need.” Silvie really knew when to jump in!

“Then I will leave it to you. If there is anything you want let me know. I will make sure you get it.” I had to make sure Silvie was comfortable in the game world as well. I planned to get a nice big bed for her along with all kinds of other things to make her life more comfortable over there.

“I will have Hilde tell me what she sees so I can decide,” Silvie replied as she normally would, but I could hear a hint of excitement in her voice.

“Oh, right. I have been meaning to ask, but Silvie, are my and Ange’s bodies still in game?” I had been wondering about this for a while and had forgotten to ask until now.

“Yes, Master’s sleeping face is very cute.” I wonder if Silvie knew it was kind of embarrassing to be called cute like that all of a sudden. Which is surprising since, before I would have just shaken it off as a joke, but ever since meeting Angel, I have come to take these kinds of words as compliments. “Also the nude elf is also here. I stuffed him in the corner.”

 “Pfft!” I couldn’t help but let out a laugh, which caught Angel’s attention.

“What’s so funny?” Angel asked. I could tell she was very curious as to what I was laughing about.

“Silvie stuffed your father in a corner of the cottage like an unwanted toy,” I replied.

“Humph! She did that to me, too!” Angel looked defeated.

“Haha! It is still funny, though. Think about it. Your father, logging in and finding himself rolled up in a ball stuffed in the corner.” Silvie said she had basically folded Ange’s father up so that his face was basically kissing his own butt. When I explained more in detail, Angel let out a loud laugh.

“Oh my god! Hahaha! I can just picture his sour face! I hope we log in before him! I want to see it!” Angel was holding her stomach. I think if it was not for the shopping cart holding her up she would have long been rolling around on the floor. Even Hilde let out a chuckle when I told her about Angel’s father’s macho elf.

We chatted as we walked to the back of the store, where I called out to one of the workers. “Excuse me, can I ask you a question?”

“Hmm? Yes, how can I help you?” this man was around his mid thirties. While he had to work a dead end job he still had a smile on his face when he answered me.

“I was wondering if you could get all your non-perishable foods from out back and and let me buy them all.”
