> check wallet

>You check your wallet, which you find out that all that is in there, is really nothing.

[Hello Purvis]

>Go to statue.
>Focus on nabbing its spritual power.
>Summon stand. Name it Stargazer

[Wylfred]

>go to the nearest person you can find and steal his wallet like the fist of the north star.

[Hello Purvis]

>go to the nearest person you can find and steal his wallet like the fist of the north star.

>That ain't cool. We should consider trading the comfy chair instead. Money would be much less heavy.

>You first go over to one of the residents of the town to trade the nice chair, he responds nicely about this, trading you 500 gold for the chair

>You then go up to the "Goddess" Statue, and focus on it, trying to take any spiritual power from it.
>Soon the sky grows cloudy, and there's a flash of light, with that a woman with a resemblance to the statue appears, which then she speaks.

>"Ohhohoho~ What do we have here?~ some mortal trying to take power from my statue?"

>You figure out that by how this woman looks, she probably is the goddess herself, the question is that what is she the goddess of?

>What do you do now.

[Hello Purvis]

>"Uh, yeah, pretty much. Sorry, this is kinda a big deal for me, I was sort of an atheist until a moment ago. Can I have a moment to wrap my head around this?"

[ES-Anthy]

>"Uh, yeah, pretty much. Sorry, this is kinda a big deal for me, I was sort of an atheist until a moment ago. Can I have a moment to wrap my head around this?"

>The Goddess responds
>"Sure you can, once you pay me for that time you're gonna spend"
>she holds out her hand, expecting you to give her cash

[Hello Purvis]

>"...Would you accept it if I used it to get you dinner? I've got a thousand and one theological questions now, and it'd be great to sit down in a relaxed atmosphere and discuss them."

[ES-Anthy]

>"...Would you accept it if I used it to get you dinner? I've got a thousand and one theological questions now, and it'd be great to sit down in a relaxed atmosphere and discuss them."

>"Oh, if you're willing to pay for that, I may reconsider, but I must ask, how much do you exactly have, because dinner with me isn't exactly cheap~"

[Hello Purvis]

>"Five hundred of these."
>Hold up a gold coin.
>"I suppose I could wash some dishes if you really need to lay on the swank, but you're a goddess, so you probably have an idea how lousy my situation is. I'm not gonna lie, I kinda expect some guys to gatecrash."
>Reflect this might actually be a good deal, for some cosmic enlightenments.

>She looks at you for a moment, before bursting into laughter
>"Ahahahaha~ Do you really think a measly 500 gold coins can be worth a nice dinner to me? I have thousands upon millions times more than what you will ever have~"
>She wags her finger at you in a taunting manner
>"Ahem, either way, you can still buy yourself the moment of thinking with that chump change"
>She stares at you, waiting for your next words

[Hello Purvis]

>"Ah, but money doesn't make quality, does it? What you'll be getting here, I'd wager, is some good rustic cooking. Show me a chef worth tens of thousands of these...uh...golds that would "lower" himself to do that. Think of it as a change of scenery, an excuse to get out somewhere different. A nice change of pace, as it were."

A nice change of pace, as it were."

>"Hmm, no thanks, I would rather prefer high class dining over that. Either way you've been wasting some of my time, so I would like you to pay for this time" She once again puts her hand out, waiting for you to pay her.
>"As the saying goes, time is money~"

[Hello Purvis]

>"Wouldn't you predate the concept of money, though? And possibly time?"
>Hand to forehead
>"See, this is what I meant by a thousand and one questions. There's all sorts of things I need to figure out now and determine how to live my life. I mean, I used to laugh at the idea of tithing as a necessity, now you've got me taking a second and third look at it..."

>She starts to leer at you, becoming a bit grumpy.
>Why, yes I do predate the concept of money, but since it's creation it's kinda become a staple of mortal, and spiritual life as well, I can understand how you're so baffled by this, but if you want to continue asking questions, either you pay up now, or you might as well sign a contract with me to keep me around, since Noire has already been dealt with already.

[Hello Purvis]

>Smile back.
>"If we're going to talk about contracts, it's only customary to do so over a meal, isn't it? Also, now I just have to know what sorts of currency are best represented in the spiritual aspect. I'd think fiat currency, because it's entirely backed by trust and nothing else, but I'm just theorizing... I've not even introduced myself. I'm Hero."
>Take a bow.

>She starts to grin.
>"Ohhoho~ There really isn't much to talk about in any of my contracts, and even then, you wouldn't want to just strain your wallet with just talking over it, since you're gonna need every coin you have to afford it."

[Hello Purvis]

>"Perhaps we can hammer out a payment plan, over sandwiches?"

[ES-Anthy]

>"Perhaps we can hammer out a payment plan, over sandwiches?"

>"Hmm, maybe." she looks you over, ideas forming in her mind
>"Recently there has been more Evil Lords appearing in place of the old ones, sooo~ how about this, if you help me in keeping the Evil Lord population count down, along with giving me, say, and 8/2 cut of any spoils you gain, mind you the 8 is for me, I will help you with any time based needs or any questions of yours', along with a cover charge of all the money you have right now, Okay?~"

[Hello Purvis]

>"Alright, but what services do I obtain for this cost? Aside from a meal and a theological chat, which I must insist upon upfront."

[ES-Anthy]

>"Alright, but what services do I obtain for this cost? Aside from a meal and a theological chat, which I must insist upon upfront."

>"Well lets see, I can always turn back time so in case you have a, little accident, I could say, I could turn it back so you're alive, along with in case you come in just a bit late I can turn the clock back you can be the hero of the day, but all of this does come with costs, being revived will be a 100 gold each time, and each turn back of the clock would cost 100 gold as well the first time, it goes up another 100 for each followed use afterward for that day."
>"Now, do you accept?~"

[Hello Purvis]

>"Throw in dinner and a theological discussion. On top of that, I need if these will count as charitable contributions or business expenses. I would like to consider an alternate payment plan, in which we invest a quantity of money jointly, and then take from the dividends with your four shares for my every one plan, your shares contributing toward future installments of 100 gold. I think this idea would benefit us both greatly."

>"I'm sorry but I'm not exactly in the mood for altering the contract, especially since that would involve less money for myself, besides, the amount you get will be perfectly fine for my costs."
>"All of the payments are, charitable contributions, I guess you could say~"
>"Also any money you gain off of random monsters out in the field is your own, just anything you find in a large sum, like say secret treasures and bank vaults, all of that stuff is where it gets cut."

[Hello Purvis]

>"No no, hear me out. It would pay off less in the short run, but in the long run you'd break the bank. Biut say we invest it in...I dunno, treasury bond ponds. We wait for them to mature, then split it that way. Just that we allow for all 100 gold installments to come from that rather than from the field. In turn, I'll take on the obligation of investing, say, 30% of my field takings into these kinds of securities. Not only that, as you're effectively taking capital out of the economy, it serves a s deflationary measure, thus making your own holdings more valuable in comparison."

>"You do make a good deal, I like a man who knows their economics, though the last person I contracted to by your same name ended up just going the regular path to just get it straight through, either way I accept on my end, but do you?"

[Hello Purvis]

>"I suppose so. Is there something to sign?"

[ES-Anthy]

>"I suppose so. Is there something to sign?"

>She snaps her fingers, suddenly a large contract appears in her right hand, it's on some rather nice paper, even with some gold leaf bordering on it, all of the deal written out in ink on the paper, with no noticeable fine print, she also holds out a quill in her other hand for you to sign it.

[Hello Purvis]

>Look over the deal to make sure all the clauses are included.
>If so, make with the signing.
>If not, point out the lacking clause(s)

[ES-Anthy]

>Look over the deal to make sure all the clauses are included.
>If so, make with the signing.
>If not, point out the lacking clause(s)

>You look over the contract very carefully, everything is in it, and all in order, all it needs is your signature.
>You then sign it, with your four letter name in fancy cursive as needed in all signatures on big contracts.

>"Good~, now that's all taken care of, I just need one little bitty last thing to do, since in your case you may need me more often outside of a town than inside of one, you will probably need some portable way to use my power, since I can't hand around you 24 hours of the day. Do you happen to have anything like a watch or such?"

[Hello Purvis]

>"Actually, I think I do."
>Give her the stopwatch, and her down payment of 500 golds. "I hope you find a good investment for it."
