Chapter 598: Jewel is Injured
Seems like the girls won’t be done for a while longer. Even though I have more things I need to test than them, I think they will take much longer because they are doing some fashion show.
I have seen them doing it in the past. We have a clothing store after all. Most of the design are from Victoria’s original world. And they are all so fashionable. The girls loved it so they arranged some fashion show for themselves once in a while when some new designs appear.
Though that doesn’t mean they are not interested in fashion from the past. It’s obvious from seeing how they are doing a fashion show over there. Kayla, Angela, Celestine, and Sara raised Earth Walls and turn them into changing rooms. They even set a stage for them to walk.
I’m curious. There should be some clothes for men to wear as well. But why didn’t they ask me to put them on?

Well, I can put them on later. The girls are having fun right now so I won’t ruin their fun.
Though I’m curious how Timmy can take care of those dresses. Maybe he loves crossdressing?
Alright! Next is... a scissor?
.....
“Hey, this shouldn’t count as a weapon, right?” I asked Victoria who is taking a break from the fashion show next to me in her human form.
“It can be counted as a sharp weapon. Anyway, Jeremy said that you won’t just test the weapons. Some of the items that he and the other appraisers couldn’t find their effects will be given to you so you can test them all. Because some of the effects won’t just appear from infusing mana into them. They need Aura to be used. That’s why you will have a lot more than these to test. Even the dresses that the girls are wearing might need you to test,” Victoria said.
So, I need to wear dresses? I have wore the fishnet stocking before and I ended up getting humiliated because Victoria pulled a fast one on me. Now I need to wear them in front of everyone without hiding it? No way.
“Victoria, you can put the dresses and any women’s clothing yourself. You can wear them and ride on Ray’s back so you can use Aura a little bit. There’s no way I can wear those dresses. What if they ripped because I’m too big?”
“Well, that’s what I intend to do anyway. Though I just ask you because maybe you have some interest in crossdressing,” Victoria said to me before she left and returns to where the girls are.
I’m fine with crossdressing. But I don’t like how Victoria and the others might end up pushing me to do it more often.
I must never let my guard down around anything related to Victoria’s hobby.
Anyway, let’s try the scissor. There’s a note written by Jeremy that the scissor can even cut even steel when I infuse mana into it.
Seriously, there’s no need for me to be the one to test it. It’s better to give this scissor to a tailor. Maybe the one who make the clothes for our clothing stores. And they can make dresses from steel.
...That would be too heavy.
Anyway, the scissor is good. I used it to cut the iron sword with self-repairing effect on it and the sword was cut very well.
And as I infuse mana into the sword to repair it, Sonia appears in front of me.
“Roy! Jewel is injured badly! Shelia told me to open a portal right away!”
As soon as she finished speaking, I opened a portal directly to where Shelia is. And Shelia quickly entered it while carrying the injured Jewel on her back.
“Kayla! Heal Jewel!”
I gave the order to Kayla who is running this way as I turn my attention to the portal.
Inside the portal, I can see that it’s a plain field just like where we are right now. But there’s a herd of monsters coming. They are all animal type monsters. All of them are rhinoceros.
“...Seems like Jewel has found a rhino she wants to evolve into,” I said.
The herd of rhinos are charging into the portal. So, I entered it and close the portal behind me.
“What will you do, Roy? Revenge for your disciple?” Victoria who came with me asked.
“Not at all. If Jewel is in danger, she would have noticed it right away and contacted me. But the fact that she didn’t can only mean that she’s facing them willingly. Her injury came from her own decision. And I will respect that. I’m here so I can put a Blobby somewhere so Jewel can return anytime she wants. Maybe I’ll just stick a Blobby onto that biggest rhino. It seems to be angry.”
I pointed at the biggest rhino among the herd. Not only that one is big, it was also the one that looks like the most vicious. Maybe Jewel wanted to evolve into that one.
All the rhinos here seem strong. Their skins are not like a normal rhinoceros’ skins. Instead, they more like an armor. A powerful armor made of strong metal.
As the rhinoceros got closer, I jumped into the sky to dodge them. And I stick a Blobby behind the biggest rhino’s ear. Even if the rhino is rolling around on the ground, it will be hard for the rhino to take it off.
I thought that I’m already safe in the sky and about to go back to Jewel, but it seems that I underestimated these rhinos. I should have expected something from a monster that Jewel picked.
The biggest rhino then stomped on the ground, and the landscape changed. That rhino has the ability to use earth magic. No wonder Jewel wanted this one.
I who was supposed to be safe in the air after a very high jump suddenly have my feet touch the ground again.
This is great. If I didn’t make a contract with Ray, I would have picked this monster as my familiar. But if Jewel can do this, that would be great.
Once Jewel evolved, I guess we can count her as our earth mage as well. I wonder if Ian wants to evolve as well.
I’d like to test myself against this rhino. But I will hold myself back since this is Jewel’s target. Whether she wants to defeat it or even if she wants to tame it, the decision is up to her.
“Sorry, but I have no time to play with you. I’ll let Jewel decide what she wants to do with you. Goodbye!” I waved my hand toward the rhino as I opened a portal behind me to where we were before.
I stepped back and closed the portal when the rhino was within an arm reach. The rhino must be confused, but I don’t care.
“How’s Jewel?” I asked Kayla about Jewel’s condition. At the same time, I used Divine Vision to look at her properly.
“I healed the bruises and any visible wounds. I don’t know if she has broken bones or not,” Kayla replied.
From what I can see, there’s nothing serious. At least after Kayla healed her. There are some broken bones, but there’s no need for surgery since healing magic is enough.
“Kayla, use healing magic on her... everything. Use higher level healing magic on her whole body. That’s enough to recover her. Though she might need some rest. Shelia, can you tell me what happened?”
After giving the order to Kayla to heal Jewel, I asked Shelia who was with her what happened.
What happened was exactly as I thought. Jewel didn’t notice the rhino’s ability to alter the landscape and let down her guard even when Shelia was there.
Jewel and Shelia tried to face a herd of rhinos just the two of them. But they were taken by surprise when the ground was altered and Jewel got hit. Even though she has enough time to transform into her hybrid form and protect herself, the rhino was too strong and that’s how she got injured.
Shelia then retreated and contacted Sonia right away who then told me that Kayla was injured. That was surprising knowing that Shelia loves fighting the most. I guess they ended up becoming good friends.
“So, is that thing the one Jewel wanted to evolve into?” I asked Shelia.
“Seems that way. I only managed to put down just one of the smaller ones. But their boss was much tougher. If Jewel can evolve and be like that, she will be much stronger than she is now,” Shelia said.
If she can be that strong, I will be happy as well. Though I need to ask for more information from Jewel herself. But she needs rest right now. She hasn’t been awake even though her body has been healed. She must be exhausted.
“Well, I guess this is it. Let’s stop the testing right now. We should take a rest as well,” I said.
And so, I brought everyone back home to rest. I got Sophie to nurse Jewel as soon as I get home.
For the next testing, I’ll do it after Jewel wake up.
A rhino that can use earth magic, huh? My disciple is amazing indeed if she can evolve into one.
