I quickly put up a poker face and looked at G.o.dou with a serious look. "I didn"t come here to have fun and you know what I wanted to do here since you are also one." Hoping that he gets the gist of my words, I said it to him directly. However, this moron musclebrain understood it the wrong way.
"You want to hire girls? Then you should prepare a hefty amount of money! The girls in here are not cheap since they are famous courtesans that was personally handpicked by the boss. They can perform lots of "services" and foreplays if you wanted to," G.o.dou smirked.
One of the girls smacked G.o.dou"s head. "Behave Onii-chan, he is clearly not here for that and from the aura he produces, I can deduce that he is a magician so he must be here for the Magic Store and not the Love Hotel services."
The other girl bowed down to me and started apologizing. "I"m sorry for the behavior of my brother, dear customer. We will reprimand him later."
"Aw, and here I thought I can have some fun teasing. You all are killjoys man!" G.o.dou sighed. Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
Ignoring G.o.dou, I never expected that these girls are G.o.dou"s younger sisters. They are totally different from their brother so who would expect that they are siblings? The girl with gla.s.ses and seemed to be the younger sister led me inside the love hotel. Although it was an awkward one seeing people in the lobby are all couples, I can"t help but gulp. I am a guy without a girlfriend in my entire life and never had much skins.h.i.+p from the opposite s.e.x. What"s more, what"s with this stuffy atmosphere where it seemed to make your heart skip a beat?
"Ignore the place Kazuma. Since you want to go to the Magic Store, don"t bother to observe other people here. The Magic Store is just hidden in plain sight and disguised as a Love Hotel. Many people will only think that this is just a plain hotel to satisfy the otherworldly l.u.s.tful desires that people have but it was due to that that people who are normally not into that are avoiding this place like you initially wanted to do earlier. So it was a perfect place to set up a shop that only magicians can enter," G.o.dou said as he opened the door that lead to a certain room.
Certainly, people would not suspect something is being sold here except those services and items that can be used for those services. Even I hesitated to enter this place so this might be what they wanted to happen after all. Now back to this room. This place is normal and nothing seems magical about this place but what appears to be a normal-looking place suddenly felt so heavy for me.
"Welcome to the shop Kazuma. My sisters are running this shop for every magician"s customers. If you have something to buy, you can choose what items are fit for you to buy," G.o.dou said.
"We forgot to introduce ourselves. My name is Yayasaki Inoue, I am the oldest of us three siblings and the owner of this shop," the girl who smacked G.o.dou earlier said. This girl is the one you call the Onee-san character, she has the matured tone and air around her. But why is she calling G.o.dou "onii-chan" if she was the oldest child? I think it was an endearment I guess?
The younger girl who looks like your typical cool genius looking girl wearing gla.s.ses and her hair in braids pulled out a sketch pad and writes in there.
(Nice to meet you. I am Yayasaki Mira. The youngest sibling of the three. And don"t mind me writing here, I am mute and can"t speak, also I can"t hear properly so I have to use a hearing aid to hear what you were saying so please be patient for me alright?)
I smiled and nodded at her. So she is a mute? No wonder she keeps on holding that sketch pad, and here I thought she was an artist and likes to draw.
"Anyways Kazuma, I know you are a magician like us but what I am wondering is why you are trying to buy? Surely you have some reason, no?" G.o.dou said as he looked at me with curiosity.
"Yes, I came to buy items that would help me survive inside the GATES. I am planning on entering one."
When they heard this, they were stunned and they looked at me in shock.
"You what? You want to challenge a GATE? All by yourself? Without any backup?"
I looked at him in confusion. "Why? Is there any problem with that?"
"Of course there is! GATES are dangerous as f*ck and challenging one is already suicidal! You think you can waltz into a GATE and walk out back alive? Dude, do you even know what is a GATE?!"
"The one that is used to control who wants to go in or go out a certain building right?"
"h.e.l.l NO! THAT IS A DIFFERENT GATE! I AM TALKING ABOUT THE GATES!"
"Ah, yeah of course. And I more or less care about the dangers there."
Indeed. I care less about the dangers there. GATES might be dangerous because they are the Earth"s way of disposing malice all around the world. GATES forms once a lot of malice is gathered at one point. From then on, the GATES will forever exist and will forever contain malice. Of course, if a GATE is out of control, monsters will appear and that would be the most dangerous turns of events. That is why magicians are the ones tasked in controlling gates and contain all that is inside of it. And besides, GATES yield bounty and resources that you can"t easily get from the demons are being dropped there. And if I want to get stronger, challenging that place is the only choice of mine.
"You are insane," G.o.dou said.
"Did you already entered one of those GATES?" I asked him.
"Yes, if not, I would not be a decent magician, at worst, I may be worse than your magic state right now. But are you sure you won"t hire anyone to go with you inside the GATE?"
"I have already decided."
G.o.dou sighed and he looked at his sisters who shrugged.
"Alright, sisters, please give him the advance kits. If he wants to survive a GATE with his weak magic, then he needs those things."
His sisters nodded and they started gathering things.
"Advance kits?" I asked him.
"Yeah. I can"t accompany you to a GATE since it is one of the most dangerous places in this world. Maybe I will accompany you if you get to be with a party. Otherwise, I will just stay here."
G.o.dou already decided what he wanted to do. But that can"t sway me. If I do it with someone, then I am just relying on them. If I want to be strong, I need to work on it by myself.
"Thanks for waiting. The Advance Kits that are ordered are now prepared."
