Chapter 122: Leon's wealth
With a clean and new hairstyle, Leon proceeded to deal with the most important things.
His dwelling.
"I don't know how hospitable Heaven Library Guild is, but I plan to get a house in their lands." Leon didn't think he'd have problems with that since many common people loved and respected Heaven Library Guild's Guild Master, and Leon also believed she was a good businesswoman. "And since we plan to adventure, we need a good, cozy, and sturdy carriage enough to accommodate at least a few people."
Leon shifted his eyes and looked directly into his horses' eyes. He could no longer turn them into cards, so he couldn't protect them in the same way or keep them safe from the world's dangers. In fact, those guys took freedom too much to their hearts and ran around the forest after Leon lost his Monster Collector Card.
And now, the horses realized their owner wanted to give up on them.
They cried and squealed.
"I'll find you a home in a common village soon." Leon was decisive enough that no cries could convince him.
Knowing nothing could be done, the horses howled and scoffed at Leon. They started calling him a virgin and laughing at their owner in their language.
Leon didn't speak that language, but their stares and voices somewhat told him what was in their minds.
He shrugged and prepared to build his own carriage.
[You have sold the Golden Bow for two thousand gold coins to the system shop.]
[You have bought The King's Royal Carriage's Set from Derek's Wood Bro Shop.]
???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????
[You have received one hundred and two new items.]
Because that carriage was too big, it couldn't be stuffed into the inventory system. Now that Leon had some more experience, he didn't doubt he would be able to store it with the Son Of Janus' bloodline. In fact, Celes had her inventory expanded after eating his neck, which was surely connected to that bloodline.
He'd expand his inventory through different means as he grew up stronger.
"Time to build a carriage! Are you ready?" Leon smirked and shifted to his beloved vampiress, whose expression lacked enthusiasm.
Hugging her booze, Celes faintly smiled and replied to her master's lively voice. "How about we go to level up and leave building up the carriage to villagers?"
Leon looked at her with dead eyes.
On the other hand, Alexandra wanted to try out new stuff, and she even got an idea to build a small house for the kitty family, so she was hyped up and excited to help her master with his new carriage. "What should I do first, Master?"
Leon waved at Celes as though he was shooing her away to study the black skull and its effects, then wheeled to Alexandra, smiling. "We have to prepare a few stuff first. I'll send you the manual through the system, and we can start building separate parts first."
"Understood, Master!" Alexandra gravely nodded, but her anticipation and sparkling eyes wiped off her seriousness and filled her with too much energy.
It was nice to look at her, and Leon didn't hide that.
"It should take us a while before Louise returns. I also have a few ideas I want to implement!" Leon spoke like a child with big dreams and the means to fulfill them.
And thus, it was time to work on their new carriage.

Leon wasn't blinded by his new class and the absurd stats that came with it.
In this world, where the level peak was unknown, and no one knew how strong others really were, Leon wouldn't blindly focus on building a carriage and having good nights of sleep and morning and evening snacks with Celes. But the latter was quite important as Leon and Celes formed a new bond.
It was once again a bond formed through the class. However, in this case, no one really started that bond, and it formed naturally, so Leon's new class, Eros' Successor, simply brought out what had already been developed between them.
And with that bond, Leon and Celes often received mini-quests related to each other.
Those quests never had a clear reward or goal.
[Morning Snack Quest(3/???) - Eat Celes' neck and drink her blood every morning.]
In the vampiress' case, her quest was to become a snack, which she obviously didn't mind. Of course, even without a quest, Celes would drink her master's blood and fill his mouth with hers. But now that his class had formed those quests, both were genuinely curious about what would come from it.
If their daily streak stopped, would they fail the quest or get a lesser reward? How about those question marks and how many mornings were hidden behind them? The duo had many questions and things to look forward to with those quests.
Other than morning and evening snacks, Leon and Celes deepened their relationship through simple but lovely gestures. For example, the vampiress sometimes lent her hand and helped him with his carriage project. She also took over some of Alexandra's duties and even fed the cats.
All those things contributed to their newly formed bond, strengthening it.
Leon's divinity should soon reward the vampiress, and even if it wouldn't, Celes was fine with her slow life and her master's enthusiasm. It wasn't like those things were chores, and she loved to be a part of his life.
Leon felt the same, but inwardly, he felt so glad that he finally found a class that suited him and his plans.
"Will you use chains, Master?" Celes donned her uniform and put on tight black pants she had bought from the system shop, which was high-level equipment. She teased her master with it as she pulled them away from her skin, only to slap her hip with the elastic material.
The sound was pretty daring and enticing.
Leon was sure she bought it from the otherworlder's shop as her new item lacked any armor, yet its stats were high, enough to protect her legs — perhaps, it was even better than armored pants!
