Chapter 98 - Handsome man (1/2)

The transformation skill currently took 5 mana points for every hour Ray was fully transformed. Ray currently had a total of 43 mana points. This meant at the moment, he could stay in his current form for around another 8 hours. This was, of course, as long as he didn't have to fight using this form as that would also take up additional mana.

Ray looked at himself in the mirror one more time before heading off. Although he didn't really have any interest in humans, he thought he had a done a dam good job creating a handsome one using his skill transform.

After leaving the room with his ten crystals in hand, he decided to head back to the blacksmith shop. While walking through the halls, many of the female students couldn't help but look his way.

Ray was right. He had created one of the most handsome men to walk the earth. The females and even male students couldn't help but stare in admiration. Not only that, the equipment he was wearing screamed high-quality beast gear. But unknown to them it was all an illusion.

Ray wasn't used to the friendly treatment. Students would greet him in the hallway and ask him if there was anything he needed. It was completely different from when he was Ray.

”This world is quick to judge. Just a simple change in appearance and their actions and speech towards me change so drastically.”

Ray thought that the students were hypocritical. These very same students ignored him and shunned him just cause of his red hair.

Finally, after arriving at the blacksmith shop, Ray opened the door and was happily greeted by the owner.

”So even you treat me differently?” Ray mumbled.

”Sorry, what was that sir?”

”Nothing. I'm looking for the best chest piece armour you have.”

As soon as the owner saw Ray walk in, his eyes lit up with gold. From the equipment alone that the adventurer was wearing, he knew this man was a big spender.

The owner took Ray to the orange armadillo chest piece. Ray tried on the chest piece and straight away he could feel the quality in the armour. Not only was it strong, but it was flexible allowing him to have a free range of movement when fighting.

”I'll take it,” Ray said.

”And how will you be paying for that sir?!” The blacksmith asked with a bit too much enthusiasm.

”Will this be okay?” Ray said as he put ten intermediate beast crystals out on the table.

”That's perfect.” The owner quickly put the crystals away and was happy for Ray to walk out with the armadillo chest piece.

Just as Ray was about to leave, he heard the bell chime on the door signalling that another person had entered the shop.

In walked a beautiful silver-haired girl with her armour in a blue and white pattern. She carried a giant shield on her back.

”Slyvia,” Ray called out to her.

Slyvia looked at the man who had just called out her name. After looking at the man up and down for a good few seconds she realised she had no recollection of the man who called out to her.
