Chapter 27

I was in a separate room wasting time before the next story event. When I say in a separate room wasting time I mean reading some online stories. The story never mentions the time in between major events. It's been 5 days since the guildmasters decided to play dress up with me and Gong-ja. I should hang out with them again soon.

Gonga-ja randomly screeching in the living room got me on the edge of my bed. Ready to run in there if something happened. "Darling, are you ok in there." 

"Yeah, yeah... I'm fine just thinking about something." What in the world is going on? Instead of rushing in like I originally planned I walked and eventually hugged the doorframe to the room where he was. 

"Are you sure you are fine?" My voice came out too childish for my liking. The scene I walked in on was the swordmaster not happy like always, gong-ja holding shiny whispering threats with a rag, and a visibly distressed sword named Shiny. This is funny since the lion design on her hilt never changed but it just has that energy.

Upon my entry, everything froze, Gong-ja looked like a child caught stealing cookies, Shiny's despair aura was changed to glee, and the swordmaster who was upset was the one who broke this thin silence with a laugh. He's only happy at mine or Gong-Ja's dismay. 

Without a thought or looking away from me hiding behind the wall, cast aside Shiny onto the couch. It didn't take long for him to walk to me and pull me to him. "I'm fine just teasing each other like normal." His sly smile always gets to me. When I finally had room I grabbed Shiny from the couch. 

"You can't just throw Shiny like that. You are her master now so you need to take care of her." 

"Oh shut up." The sudden rise of voice made me flinch. Gong-ja must have seen since he started cueing and apologizing profusely. 

"I wasn't speaking to you, I'm so sorry. I was talking to Shiny in your arms." As he said this he took her out of my hand. "She was mocking me and you were inflating her ego. I'm so sorry." Unlike the swordmaster who I can see and talk to even though he's related to a skill, Shiny communicates to Gong-ja via the system windows. and their master and servant contract. Afterward, he began to question the sword and I stood there like a wallflower. Mid questioning Shiny radiated light as if she was a lightbulb which hurt all our eyes. 

"Hey, love?" I hummed in acknowledgment. "What do you know about Shiny from the original? Something other than the 5 swords and the fact she's a goddess." Humming in thought I racked my brain what do I know of Shiny? 

"One of her sisters is a cause of one of the upcoming floors but is sort of hard to get to. Similar to how Shiny influenced the npcs of the Aegim empire."

"Which floor is it!" 

"I can't recall the exact number right now but I'll know the floor when I see it. But I don't know how you'll get to it. Never mind we'll find a way."
