Chapter 48 Junior (1/2)

Ria looked at the silver necklace in Sheila's hands while pondering why did Sheila bring it out for. Sheila didn't say much but only ask her for the key. Ria didn't know what Sheila did as her figure disappeared entirely from her sight and five minutes later, she appears with a key necklace in hands. Did she entered and exiting the Trial Tower have something to do with the key now in a necklace?

”Here.”

Sheila said while giving the key necklace to her. She must have understood the confusion on Ria's face as she explains everything.

”Since you were worried about losing the key, I decide to make you a key necklace. You don't have to worry anymore about losing it, so long as you stop wearing it.”

”It will definitely look good on you too, so why don't you try wearing it first?”

”...”

Ria didn't mutter any word in response but simply stares at the key necklace in her hands. To be honest, yes, it's pretty. But doesn't this make it stand out even more? Is this idiot even understand what she had done? Probably not from the oblivious expression on her face. But yes, it might work as no one will ever think that the key necklace that she wore is actually a key to a whole new world.

And even if someone ended up getting the key, they won't be able to enter the Trial Tower without knowing the procedure of how to enter it unless they experiment it a lot. While Ria is trying to equip the key necklace around her neck, she also asked Sheila about another one of her worries. But Sheila response back with a smug on her face.

”Don't worry. I had already patched it when I went inside the Trial Tower. No one else but you could use the key.”

Sheila answerer Ria with ease, but inside her mind, I have to hunt so many goblins in order to get enough gold for the patch. Thankfully, it didn't take long for that with the time difference between inside and outside. It took her 3 hours of grinding until she had enough to add a new attribute to the key that only the key owner chosen by the Host could use it. Even with all the gold grinding, she hadn't leveled up by one. It seems that she had to go for a higher floor to level up rather than grinding on the lower floor since the experience she gets is too little. But grinding on the lower floor did help in taking her mind off from thinking about stuff that she didn't want to speak of.

”It does look good on you more than I expected.”

Sheila muttered in amazement at the sight in front of her. Ria looks very beautiful now with the silver necklace around her neckline. The key pendant gives off a mysterious charm to those who gaze at her, that is if she was purposely showing it off.

”Well, thank you.”

”But then, do I have to remove the necklace off just so that I can enter the space?”

”I got you covered. Just say the magic word, Link Start! 1  ”

”...are you serious?”

”Of course, I am! Go on.”

Sheila tried to make a serious expression on her face after saying that to Ria. But she didn't know that Ria had gotten used to her tricks as one who has lived with her since young, which was why Ria just smiled at her with the eyes that don't seem to be smiling at all. Sheila serious face cramped under the invisible threat behind Ria smiling face.

”I'm just kidding, haha! All you need to do is only thought about in your head, and you will be teleported right away.”
