Chapter 37: More Shopping
'Phew... With this, I'll be fine.' Ellysia heaved a sigh of relief after being free from her worries.
'This magic is very effective. Now I'm starting to wonder what you might not be able to do with it. Or maybe, we can do everything and make it happen?' Elena began to imagine a dream paradise coming true.
'Hehe... That's not it, Sister Elena. I or you are not an almighty god.' Elysia giggled when she learned that Elena's delusion had been conveyed to her.
Unfortunately, none of them realized how much power Elysia possessed right now. They also never thought about how much influence she would have in the future.
While Elysia and Elena were exchanging words, two women approached Elysia who was still standing holding her tummy with a slightly pale face.
"Young girl, are you all right? Your face is a little pale." A friendly housewife is a little worried about the girl who seems to be in trouble.
"Ah? Um, I'm fine. Thanks for asking, ma'am." Elysia immediately came out of her inner conversation.
"Really? Don't push yourself if you are sick." The other housewife seemed to care so much for Elysia while looking at Elysia's hand which was still holding her tummy with a slightly pale face.
"I'm fine and healthy. Thank you for your kind attention." Elysia once again replied to the friendly housewife who was a little worried about her situation because of her earlier behavior.

"If you say that... Maybe you can come to the church to check on your condition. The priests there are very good with healing magic."
"Em... Talking about the church, I remember when my husband was sick. I took him to church and he immediately returned to his healthy self again after being healed there."
"They are so kind and warm-hearted. The cost is affordable and even free for the poor."
"Not to mention the social assistance they periodically distribute to the poor in almost all cities on the continent."
"Yeah. May God bless us all with kindness. Okay young girl, maybe the church can help you, bye. Always take care of your health."
The two housewives started gossiping with each other and gave Elysia a suggestion before waving their hands and saying goodbye.
"Yes, thank you. Have a nice day." Elysia also waved her hand to two friendly housewives who continued their daily grocery shopping.
Now her face is a bit rosy and no longer holds her tummy, she is afraid of another misunderstanding.
'Look, Lil Ely. You are so cared for in a good way. Not everyone will think badly of you just because they observe you.' Elena took advantage of this situation to take her recovery plan to the next stage.
'En.' Elysia didn't say much and nodded slightly subconsciously.
Unfortunately, her main focus is not on her being cared for but on the church that the housewives are talking about. She added the church to a place she must visit besides the city library.
Then, she continued shopping for daily necessities that were deemed necessary and important while discussing with Elena.
One by one the products are put into the shopping cart until they are finally piled up, and Vanessa can only sit on the top pile of groceries like a cherry on a cake.
Having had enough, Elysia was about to push her shopping cart towards the cashier but she realized Vanessa seemed to be focused on the line of products neatly arranged on the side.
Elysia looked over and saw a row of food boxes with a picture of a white cat there.
'Vanessa, do you want this?' Elysia took the cat food and aimed it at Vanessa.
'No, master. I just wonder why there is a picture of a baby white tiger.' The white cat on the top of the grocery shook her head cutely.
'This isn't a baby tiger, silly. But a cat. Your current role, remember? If you're curious, let's try one. Maybe you will like it. What taste do you want? Here is the taste of fish, original, and meat.' Elysia returned to the cat food shelf and looked at the available flavors.
'Eh? Err... Then, can we try everything?' Vanessa puts her little paw on her jaw as if thinking but unable to decide and can only take the path of greed.
'Sure.' Elysia put the three boxes of cat food with different flavors in her pile of groceries and headed for the cashier.
Vanessa looks attentively at the three boxes beside her with ridiculous thoughts about the conspiracy that mankind is making to bait a tiger race like her, or maybe a cat race.
Luckily Elysia doesn't know what Vanessa is thinking right now. Otherwise, she might laugh at those ridiculous thoughts.
Unlike she and Elena who can share almost anything even what they are thinking if they want to, she and Vanessa can only share what they want to talk through their spiritual connection which works like telepathy.
Elysia returned to the front of the convenience store and stood in line at the checkout for a moment until her turn finally came.
She imitates other buyers who place their groceries on a table with a moving surface that has been deliberately provided. As soon as the product passes through a small gate, the price will appear in a box like a screen which then goes to the grocery payment at the cashier there.
Elysia quickly placed all the contents of her shopping cart on the table to calculate the price to pay.
Unfortunately, Elysia missed Vanessa who followed the conspiracy box that she had in mind to the cashier there and was counted as an unknown grocery product. She only knew that Vanessa was still sitting on the shopping cart.
*Wee-oww*
A siren blew once as the handy automatic machine found a product it had failed to recognize.
The clerk saw a cat doll sitting on a cat food box, but when he was about to check the doll, he was surprised because the doll jumped on the customer girl.
"What? The doll is alive?" He gaped in amazement while looking at Elysia.
"Eh? What's a doll? She's called Vanessa. A cute cat, right?" Elysia caught Vanessa and held her in a warm hug.
"Meow." Vanessa proves her identity.
The clerk scratched his head and wrapped up all the groceries and Elysia paid according to the price that appeared on the black screen.
Then she walked out of the convenience store with a large package of groceries. She walked a few steps and entered a small alleyway to put the package in her hand into the [Space Storage] and she walked out of there after a while without anyone noticing her.
'Where are we going now before we go to the city library?'
Elysia felt that she had had enough of everything she bought at the convenience store and decided on one last place to visit before going to the main place.
'The daily necessities are ready. Beautiful clothes are also ready, but you need more than that! Casual wear, nightgowns, and most importantly women's lingerie. In short, you need a large supply of clothes!' Elena exclaimed happily.
'What? I have received two dozen beautiful and stunning outfits from Miss Rosa. I believe they are all expensive clothes. Wasn't that enough to supply clothes when I was at the magic academy? I can wash them clean...' Elysia felt limp for some reason as she was told to buy more clothes.
'Fufu... Don't be naive, young girl. I know more things than you. Now go to the department store at the mall!' Elena spoke as if she were an elder who knew many things.
'But you're the same age as me. You were only there when I was born, right? Where can I find a mall here anyway?'
'Err... Don't think about the little things too much or you'll look old. Look over there, that large shop is similar to a department store. Come over there and you can go to the city library! Go! Go! Lil Ely! I will help you choose.'
Hearing Elena's excited babble, Elysia had no other choice but to comply. A girl does need a large supply of clothes for various moments, unlike a man who is quite free in flexible circumstances.
