37 Aftermath of the Death Games (2/2)

DING!

The sound of the elevator reaching its destination caused him to open his eyes. ”Geez... I must've fallen asleep.” Riyku muttered softly before pushing off of the wall and leaving the elevator shaft. His eyes glanced around the dorm lobby see it was partially empty. ”Not surprising since classes are back in session.” Riyku would begin to make his way out of the dorms. Looking out at the street he could see the vehicles moving along the road which caused him to shake his head. ”I should think about getting a vehicle of my sometime in the future. I have the funds now after all...” Riyku would tap upon his ID wristband and move towards his data which was like an identification card.

”I am almost at Legend Level, but that is mainly because I won the Death Games. As is the amount of currency I possess.” Riyku muttered to himself before tapping upon his ID wristband to close the screen that was upon display. His hands motioned to his navy blue jeans as he proceeded along the pathway towards the Shopping District, which was about an hour's walk from where he was. Originally, he was going to check up on everyone and stop by Freya's Bakery to pick up some coffee and a couple of sugar-coated buns since those seemed to be his favorite. His main objective today was something else though. He had a promise to keep after all.

Pushing through the doors of Yumi's fashion shop he would walk up to the empty counter. Yumi would greet him with a smile like always. ”It's great to finally see some color on your face, hunnie. Still, I hope everything is going well for you. I haven't seen you since that day after all.” Yumi would state and Riyku would nod to his remark. ”I am doing just fine. Thank you for your concern. I came by to drop something off. Could you repair it and do some maintenance on it?” Riyku would call to his inventory upon his UI and reach his hand into a distortion beside him to make it look as if he were pulling out something from a sub-space similar to how the people of this world did it. He would set the damaged suit on the counter which caused Yumi to blink rapidly. ”W-What happened!? How!?” He exclaimed and Riyku chuckled lightly before folding his arms over his chest. ”You know how, but can you fix it up?” He inquired after giving the man his answer. ”Of course I can! I am the one who crafted the damn thing!” Yumi exclaimed which caused Riyku to grin. ”Then perhaps you can also add these to it.” He would pull from his pocket a piece of paper and set it up on the counter. Yumi would reach for it and read through it before his jaw dropped. ”ARE YOU SERIOUS!?!?!?” He shouted which caused the customers in the store to look towards him. Yumi would clear his throat. ”Apologise.” He stated to the customers before turning to Riyku who was grinning at him.

”I'll take your expression as a yes. As for if I can... well... I don't see why not. I am no blacksmith, but these add-ons should not be a problem. Of course, I'll still charge you. I need to make a living after all, but I'll give you a discount.” Yumi replied while waving the paper around and Riyku nodded. ”Of course, just tally it up and tell me how much when I come back. I'll be out for several weeks.” Riyku was already out the door before Yumi could inquire about what he was doing or where he was going. His next stop was right across the street to Deyo's Arms and Armors. ”Yo!” Deyo greeted him the moment he heard the bell go off. ”Glad to see you are doing better.” Deyo noticed the color and smile on Riyku's face. ”Thanks for your concern. I have a request.” Riyku would take out another piece of paper and set it on the counter. ”Well, let's take a look.” Deyo would reach for the paper and read through it. A nod came from him. ”I can get you these weapons, but what do you plan on doing with them?” Deyo inquired. ”Well... I could tell you, but you'll see when I come to get them in several weeks. You can just tally up the payment for me then.” Once again, Riyku was already out of the door the moment Deyo said, 'I can'. ”Wait, Several weeks!?” Deyo called out, but it was far too late. Riyku was now headed towards Natalie's accessory shop.

”Riyku! How lovely to see you. I am glad to see you are doing much better.” Natalie would offer him a warm smile. ”Thanks, Natalie,” Riyku replied as he made his way to the counter. ”Is there something you need help with?” Natalie asked and Riyku nodded. ”There is, can you gather these items for me?” Riyku would hand her a piece of paper as well. She would take the paper and glance over it before nodding softly. ”Of course! It'll probably take a few weeks. Is that okay?” Natalie inquired and Riyku nodded. ”Perfect. I'll be back then. See ya around.” Riyku was once more out of the door before anything else. He was now on his way to Freya's Bakery shop since he was feeling parched.

Pushing open the doors for Freya's Bakery shop he was greeted with yet another friendly smile. ”Good afternoon, Riyku. Glad to see you.” Freya called out to him. ”Glad to see you as well.” Riyku would reply. ”Mister Riyku!” Mary would run up to Riyku with open arms and Riyku would kneel to give her a soft hug when she hugged him. ”Good to see you too, Mary,” Riyku added. After pleasantries were taken care of, Riyku would proceed to the counter. ”The usual,” Riyku stated, but before anything more was said Freya had already the cup of coffee and a paper bag with several buns in them at the ready. ”So, what are your plans today?” Freya asked as Riyku began paying for his order. ”Well, not much. I already took care of everything this past hour. I just need to take care of one more thing.” Riyku would reply before taking his cup of coffee and bag of goodies. ”Oh? What might that be?” Freya asked. ”A promise,” Riyku replied with a bright smile which caused her to smile in return. ”I see. Always the busy body. Well take care and enjoy!” Freya called out to him. Riyku would nod softly as he left the building. ”Alright! Let's head to the mansion now.” Riyku would partake of the cup of coffee as he began making his way down the sidewalk.
