YM778.TV Chapter 31 Shopping Part 2
"Ah, I can\'t really get rid of them, so one silver will do. It\'s better to make something off them than nothing at all." The shop owner could only sigh. He wished he did not buy so many of them.
Vance smiled and took out another two silver and handed it to the man. "An extra silver as thanks."
The shop owner smiled and received the money. "I will not stand on ceremony. Thanks, little brother."

Vance and Alice said their goodbyes and then left the shop. Vance now had a sword on his hip, and Alice had a bow and a quiver filled with arrows strapped to her back. Vance was then dragged towards an armor shop, but Vance stopped her before she barged into it. "What we got will do for now. Let\'s just get some everyday clothes. Armor and stuff will come in time. Save what we can because you never know how much you will need in the future."
Alice pursed her lips and looked at the shop before sighing and nodding her head. "If you get hurt, I will beat you up…." She mumbled under her breath. Vance chuckled and pulled her along.
The clothing store was one that had everything from men\'s clothes and undergarments to women\'s clothes and undergarments. "Let\'s pick out seven sets of each," Alice announced as they walked through the door. Hearing this, the shop clerk was very happy as she walked over and offered to help. Alice politely sent her away since she had always wanted to shop for her clothing herself. After getting a taste for it last time, she wanted to do it again.
They went from aisle to aisle. They were currently in the men\'s section, and Alice was happily putting shirt after shirt up to Vance\'s chest to see how they would look. Vance did not mind. He was actually enjoying this little date he was having. After all, it was his first true date in his entire life or lives. He was still unsure if he was actually dead or not in the real world.
As he watched Alice running around like this. Vance wondered to himself. Would he really return to his old way of life if he was able to return to the real world? While he would feel bad for his mother losing her son, the question still lingered in his mind. He still had no idea how long it would take to reach the heights of the game…..
"Okay, done! Now my turn!" Alice smiled as she pushed all the clothes into Vance\'s arms and pulled him along. She had picked everything from his socks and underwear to his pants and shirts. She did not seem shy in the slightest. Although the entire time, not once did she ask Vance\'s opinion on the clothes. But now that she was picking out clothes for herself, she kept asking every time she picked something up. Vance would then give his truthful opinion. If he thought it did not fit her, he would say so. He was not afraid, to tell the truth. But what surprised him was that she also asked him what he thought of the underwear, which he couldn\'t help but gulp a mouth full of saliva when he pictured her wearing such things. After all, Alice was a very cute girl. And when she asked such things while blushing, it made her look even cuter than before.
When everything was settled, the two finally returned back to the inn and put their things away before eating some food and settling down for the night. Vance immediately set up the traps near both doors. They were nothing more than claw traps, but he hoped they would be of some use. "Vance, are those really necessary?" Alice asked. She couldn\'t help but worry. She did not know why Vance would go out of his way to set up such crude traps in the room.
"They might not be, but it is better to be safe than sorry. For now, go ahead and bathe. I will go after you." Vance stood in front of Alice and leaned and kissed her lips. "No need to worry. No matter what happens, I will not let anything happen to you."
Alice blushed and nodded her head before reaching up with her arms and encircling Vance\'s neck, and pushing her lips against his. This kiss lasted a minute or two before she hurried off to the bath. Vance touched his lips and smiled as he sat down on the edge of the bed and looked up at the ceiling. "Only a few more hours…."
Vance was unsure of what would happen once the players joined the game, but he knew one thing for sure, he would fight with them for everything. As long as they stood in his way, he would cut them down. He did it in the past, and he would do it again. Vance was a man who did not like sharing loot. Of course, this was different when it came to Alice, but this was for other reasons altogether.
After some time, Alice came out of the bath with a towel around her body as she shyly said: "You can go in now…."
Vance was confused as to why she was standing there like this. But he couldn\'t help taking in the sight before him. Her smooth white skin looked very soft. The way water from her wet hair dipped down and trickled down her exposed skin made for a truly alluring sight.
Alice\'s cheeks were getting redder by the second as she quickly ran to Vance and began pushing him in. "Go!"
"Ah! Sorry!" Vance no longer stared and hurried into the bath. He found a towel and a pair of new underwear already laid out for him but nothing else. Vance felt something was different tonight, but he did not think too much about it. He jumped into the bathtub that was already filled and steaming hot and began cleaning himself off.
When he came out, he did not wrap the towel around his waist. He walked out in his new underwear like a king. Alice was already under the covers and staring at him. Vance did not care. He took out a set of clothes and was about to put them on when Alice suddenly yelled out: "Why are you putting them on!? Just get in bed!"
