CHAPTER II: AWAY FROM HOME

Amethyst looked at the mirror in her room. She has a silky, shiny blue hair, matched with her green eyes. She is wearing a beige acolyte outfit, matched with white skin. She is going to come with the other priestess to help them in do some chores. She was assigned to do the market job. She looked at the list of the things she will buy, it was quite many.

She looked at her surrounding, how can she become a priestess if she is only inside of this four-dimensional building? She can't gain experience unless she went out of the Prontera City and attack some monsters.

When she arrived at the center pf the Prontera City, she encountered so many people with different jobs. Others are selling what they have scavenge out of monsters and some are buying second-handed equipments. She looked again on her list, first thing:

10 meat

5 red herb

6 yellow herb

10 apple juice

2 milk

"Meat." She looked everywhere to see sign selling meat. A few meters, she saw a merchant with a sign saying, "Selling Meat for 25 z each". Amethyst computed her total charge mentally then she gave 250 z in exchange for the meats.

In the middle of her buying for the other products, a novice approached her. "Miss Acolyte, please heal me." he said. She smiled and healed him. "Oh, Thank You! Thank You!" he said. "Your welcome." She answered.

After buying everything on the list, she went back to the sanctuary kitchen. She placed it at the table and proceeds to her next chore, cleaning the sanctuary, along with the others.

She started cleaning on the hallway. She noticed that there are too many novices, wanting to be an acolyte, just like her. Suddenly, a Kafra went on a way, carrying some letters. She handed it on the supreme priestess of the sanctuary. The supreme priestess (she's old! Just like your grandma!) Reads the letter to whom it was addressed. One o them is for Amethyst.

"Amethyst, my dear, you have a letter." She smiled as she hand the letter to the beautiful acolyte. Amethyst opened the letter hurriedly and read it. She was shocked to what she read.
