Cultivation Struggles of a Lowly Fox

”Fine, let’s put it here.” The Cami Top was closer to a shirt without sleeves, so Aiko was more inclined using it.

”Bustier, a bra with corset?” Aiko tilted her head, placing it away, maybe Mei or Danji would like it, or maybe someone else, but she didn’t.

”Alright, I think that’s enough for now.” Aiko nodded her head seriously.

She then touched the Cami Top

[Cami Top]

[Special Effects: Adds impact behind everything.]

”Hm?” Aiko pursed her lips. At first she thought she was imagining things, so she rubbed her eyes, but when that message didn’t disappear, she started to question what kind of mess was happening inside her Soul.

”What does this even mean?” Aiko tilted her head. She redressed into what she came in with and went outside.

She then picked a rock throwing it against a nice wall.

The rock made a small indent, but otherwise the damage was negligible and the wall soon repaired itself.

”Alright.” Aiko nodded her head seriously before going inside to wear the Cami Top.

With the Cami Top, she went out and did the exact same thing with the rock.

She also tried to mimic the force that she used before, but it was slightly difficult.

*Boom*

Each rock pretty much made a hole into the wall, making Aiko concerned about the effects of these lingeries.

’Are there other effects?’ Now Aiko was curious if she could find something more interesting.

She went back in to look over them.

[Medical Bra]

[Special Effects: Boosts your HP.]

[Molded Bra]

[Special Effects: Boosts your sexiness.]

[Bodysuit]

[Special Effects: Boosts Fertility.]

[Pasties]

[Special Effects: Boosts your arousal.]

Aiko went through them, but as expected, most of them were all about eroticism and things like that. The only one that didn’t have that was the [Medical Bra], [Cami Top] and [Bullet Bra], but she would pick [Cami Top] for the obvious reasons.

And as expected, even everything else had the same things.

[Bodyshorts]

[Special Effects: Adds impact behind everything.]

”Gosh, this will be a mess.” Aiko cackled since she quite liked this.

”Hm...” She then looked over the more lingerie oriented clothing. Things like camisole and chemise, but she would rather avoid those.

”Well, I will take the fancy first shirt... it improves dodge chance? Nice.” Aiko nodded her head, she liked the string that went between her-

”Hm?” Aiko noticed another section, these were ’jackets’, ’sweaters’ and anything similar to that.

[Gangster Jacket]

[Special Effects: Adds flair to your ranged attacks.]

[Special Effects: Blocks one instance of attack from a unique enemy.]

[Delinquent Shorts]

[Special Effects: Speed up.]

[Special Effects: Adds force for choking.]

[Special Effects: Makes you extra sexy.]

The gangster jacket had flames and all kind of things on it, which Aiko found strange, but it was not a bad design, so she would use it.

As for the ’flair’ behind attacks. As you might expect, not only did it improve the force behind it, but the accuracy too, which would help Aiko a lot.

As for the delinquent shorts. They were... short, to say the least. Aiko did mind it, but the bottom part had this fluffy fur on it and the belt was pretty enough that Aiko was seriously considering it.

”But what’s that about choking?” Aiko asked no one in particular, hoping that her system would answer her.

[This relates to {Triangle Choke}.]

Aiko tapped it and winced. Would you really try to bury your enemy between your...

However, the others had more detrimental effects, things like slowness and that kind of stuff.

Aiko liked to be quick on her feet...

”Ah, fuck it. It’s not like anyone will see me in this.” Aiko threw her embarrassment out of the window, since she had to deal with this place for a while.

However, those shorts were really tight and really short, which Aiko didn’t like at all.

There was also another issue...

[Fashion Travesty]

”Gosh, what is it now?”

[Affected parts: Cami Top/Elegant Long-sleeve Shirt/Gangster Jacket]

[Until either Cami Top or Elegant Long-sleeve Shirt is removed. None of those parts will display any effects.]

”...” Aiko kicked the message a few times, but it didn’t disappear on her, so she would have to walk around in a lingerie and a jacket-

”Ah, why am I still thinking.” Aiko sighed, shaking her head. This was somewhere nobody would be able to see her or hear her, so it was fine. It’s not like she would take these clothes outside.

She took off her elegant shirt, feeling quite exposed, but at least the effects applied.

”Oh, wait, what if I got the stocking and stuff?” Aiko thought that would be a nice way to prevent being so exposed.

And she was right, it did work.

[Stocking with Garter Belt]

[Special Effects: Magical Defence Up.]

[Special Effects: Sexiness Up.]

[Set Special Effect: Rocks any enemy she encounters.]

”Magical Defence?” Aiko titled her head. ”And what’s this about rocking my enemies?”

She was confused since this was certainly not Qi, but what was it?

”Well...” Aiko blinked a few times before giving up.

”Whatever, let’s just pick the rest.

[Cap]

[Special Effects: Light Defence Up.]

[Black Glasses]

[Special Effects: Anti-blindness]

[Lollipop]

[Special Effects: Sugar Rush. (Affects both speed and attack speed)]

[Special Effects: Sexiness Up.]

[Piercing]

”Alright, maybe not that one.” Aiko scratched her head. She was not keep in putting holes into her body, so she would just skip these-

[Earrings]

”Okay, maybe just this one.” Aiko nodded her head seriously.

[Glass Earrings]

[Special Effects: Glass Canon. (Attack Up, Defence Down)]

”Ehhhh.” Aiko was not sure how she should feel about this, but she was mix-mashing things, so it should be probably fine?

[Sport Shoes]

[Special Effects: Top Speed Up.]

[Special Effects: Dodge Chance Up.]

”Ah, right. I can’t have socks since I already have stockings.” Aiko grumbled since she saw quite the nice socks lying around.

”What else can I get...”

[Graceful Wristband]

[Special Effects: Magic Up.]

[Special Effects: Magic Recovery Up.]

[Rings]

[Special Effects: Strength Up.]

[Special Effects: Agility Up.]

[Special Effects: Dexterity Up.]

[...]

[Anklet]

[Special Effects: Acceleration Up.]

[Simple Necklace]

[Special Effects: Magic Power Up.]

[Biker Gloves]

[Special Effects: Defence Up.]

[Special Effects: Grip Strength Up.]

[Waist Chain]

[Special Effects: Flexibility Up.]

[Fully Geared.]

[You might want to stop, you fashion terrorist.]

”Oi!” Aiko immediately pulled out a knife out of nowhere. ”Who are you calling terrorist?!”

She couldn’t understand fashion with strange clothing, so she just went after effects and how nice they felt to the touch!

Aiko looked around if she couldn’t wear anything more, but there was nothing she could take without triggering that damned [Fashion Travesty]!

Shaking her head, she head out. These clothes were nice, much nicer than she expected which made her a bit uncomfortable. They fit too well...

”Hm?” Aiko suddenly noticed a nearby library.

”Hm? Magic Library?” Aiko blinked a few times. Was this where those ’magic’ things came from?

She immediately went inside to look around.

”The [Supreme Fist], [Fire Fist], [Flowing Fist]... Aren’t these just Cultivation Techniques?” Aiko blinked at them, magic her foot! This was a scam!

”Hm? Fireball?” Aiko picked up an interesting book.

”Let’s see...” Aiko browsed through it and ignoring the strange Runes that didn’t make sense, she would jsut test if it even worked.

”Fireball.” Of course, Aiko had no sense of danger in this place and she also didn’t bother reading the fine print which stated: DO NOT USE INDOORS OR AROUND YOUR ALLIES YOU JERK!

*BOOOM*

The whole Magic Library was blown to smithereens and Aiko was blasted away. Fortunately she was geared enough that this didn’t affect her much, but it was still scary.

”I should be more careful...” Aiko sweated and panted from the shock she just experienced.

[You have learned: [Fireball] ]

”...” Aiko was not amused, but maybe this was the magic it was talking about?

”Well, let’s wait then.” If she could learn more of these, maybe there would be something useful she could use?

Aiko waited until the Magic Library was fixed and she once again entered.

”The [Formation of Thousands Swords]... [Gale’s Blessing]?” Aiko skimmed until something she was not familiar with and then read the fine print.

”Gives boost to movement speed and attack speed until you return to the safe zone.” Aiko nodded seriously. It seemed like Blessings were almost permanent effects, as long as she didn’t return. This was much better than those temporary effects so she was curious if she could find anything better.

”[Blaze’s Blessing], [Rock’s Blessing], [Ocean’s Blessing], [Thunder Physique]- No, that one is Cultivation.” Aiko threw the last one away and searched for the rest. She also looked for any other magic like the fireball-

”Oh, you gotta be kidding me-”

*Boom*

...

”Why! Why does it work just because I thought about it?!” Aiko cried out. This was injustice for her and everyone around her, if there was anyone...

She would now have to be careful with even her thoughts, which was pissing her off.

”Change of plans, I will only learn things I will need, otherwise I might accidentally kill myself.” Aiko nodded her head seriously. She would have to first learn not to think about those magic things, before learning something more dangerous that could one-shot her...

Now she would have to wait for the Magic Library to repair again, so she would make some browsing.

There were quite a few restaurants, but it was not like anyone would be able to serve her, so she skipped those for the time being. She also found a few other shops with clothes, but those were working clothes.

Aiko might need them later, there were, after all, a set bonuses, so it was possible she would need something like that.

Maybe something to help her mine or explore? Who knows what’s more outside this place~!

Aiko was humming to herself as she browsed the city when she suddenly encountered a red shop with a puckery red lips as sign.

”What is this...?” Were the last words Aiko muttered...
