Becoming a god by raising witches

Locke gave it a down-to-earth name.

Renis nodded, picked up the toast, took a bite, and savored the delicious aroma.

[Ding! Successfully fed the witch!]

[Randomly acquire one of the witch's abilities]

[Retrieving data...]

[Shadow Clone: ​​You possess a shadow clone. The shadow clone has an independent personality but is absolutely obedient to you. Its combat power is twice that of yours. The only drawback is that its thoughts may be somewhat dark. The shadow clone can only appear in places with light; it cannot be used in darkness.]

[Due to the extraction of a duplicate ability, proficiency +100]

[Shadow Clone: ​​709/1000]

"Locke, you never let me down."

If Locke hadn't suspected him of being a witch, perhaps he could have gotten along well with this cook.

Pity.

As Renis thought this, she realized that two slices of toast couldn't hide her need for breakfast at all.

Even with a cup of fragrant coffee, I still felt unsatisfied.

Seeing that Rhaenys still seemed to want more, Locke smiled and said,

"I will make your dessert in an hour, please wait patiently."

Renis's amber eyes gleamed slightly.

In just one hour, you can enjoy such delicious desserts again.

After Locke left the office, an owl flew out from the inner room and landed on Renis's desk.

"It seems you're starting to feel reluctant to part with him."

"No, I just can't bear to part with the delicious food. I hope Old Rani and the others can learn these skills as soon as possible."

"That old-fashioned man is still arguing with the sheep."

[Acuity of hearing +1]

Locke went to the kitchen again and returned to the investigator's office with a delicious plate of Kosork Golden Toast.

Lazy Sig smelled the aroma and plopped up from the sofa.

"Oh, look who it is! It's our head chef, Locke! I've missed you so much!"

"Looks like I don't need to go to the cafeteria today."

Angela narrowed her eyes into crescent moons and skipped over to Locke.

Locke divided the Kossock Golden Toast into two slices for each person and began to enjoy his breakfast.

"It's delicious, Locke, what is this?"

Angela asked.

"Kosalk Golden Toast".

Locke replied.

"This tastes completely different from any toast I've ever had before."

Dimo also gave a thumbs up.

Boyd ate his toast and drank his tea, finding it quite enjoyable.

Sieg reached out and placed his hand on Locke's shoulder.

"I really wish I could hire you as a professional chef in my home, but unfortunately I can't afford to pay you such a high salary."

“Sieg, I want to sell you something.”

After finishing his toast, Locke removed the witch's red crystal necklace from his neck.

"This is the C19 Witch's Red Crystal Necklace. Its power is to increase the wearer's charm. I think you'll like it."

"Sounds good. No wonder I noticed the ladies' eyes were always on you when I stood next to you. So that's why, you cheating brat."

Sieg reached out and took the witch's red crystal necklace, handing it to Boyd.

"Could you please help me measure the resonance value between this necklace and me?"

"Okay, you owe me 5 copper coins."

Boyd took the necklace, pointed the sharp part of the ring of shared frequency at Sig, pricked Sig's finger and drew a drop of blood, which he then placed on the necklace.

The blood and the necklace quickly fused together, and the red crystal emitted a faint red glow.

“Yes, the resonance value has reached 7. This necklace is perfect for you, Sieg.”

Sieg took the necklace back and put it on around his neck with satisfaction.

"This suits me perfectly, how much?"

"300 gold coins."

Locke held up three fingers.

"can it be cheaper?"

Sieg asked.

"If you don't want it, you can give it to me. I like this necklace very much too."

Angela reached out, trying to snatch the necklace from Sieg's neck.

Sieg immediately covered the necklace. "No, 300 gold coins it is, Locke, I'll give it to you tomorrow."

"it is good."

Locke smiled and nodded.

What kind of transaction are you making?

Robson, who was late because he got lost, asked.

Everyone was used to him getting lost; every now and then, he would get lost for various reasons.

"This is your breakfast."

Locke handed the remaining golden toast to Robson.

Robson took the toast and began to eat it in large bites.

"Thank you, Locke, you're so thoughtful."

"I just bought a necklace for Sieg, or rather, not just a necklace, but a strange object."

Locke said.

Robson stammered, "Can strange objects be traded?"

"of course can."

Angela said, "But most investigators are unwilling to sell their strange items, which are life-saving artifacts."

"Sieg, the Heart of Dreams is yours again."

Boyd returned the pendant to Sieg to prevent Sieg from having to increase the rent due to excessive bleeding, which would be counterproductive.

Sieg nodded and hung the Dream Heart pocket watch on his clothes.

"Look, I've acquired another gentleman's accessory."

"I actually have quite a few oddities that I don't need and can sell."

Robson finished his toast and pulled five strange objects from his coat pocket.

"Do you want to see it?"

"Robson, are you kidding me? You're actually going to sell so many weird items."

Angela looked at Robson in surprise.

"hey-hey."

Robson scratched the back of his head. "Actually, I have a lot more of these myself."

"Tell me quickly what all these are."

Sieg looked with great interest at the strange and unusual ornaments in his partner's hands.

"Item number C166, a substitute puppet, capable of shielding its master from one fatal attack. If you need it, I'll sell it for only 100 gold coins."

"Item number C215, Hurricane Axe. Every swing of the axe can create a hurricane, which is very helpful in battle. If you need it, I will only sell it for 1000 gold coins."

"Item number C200, Flute of Life. Blowing this flute can accelerate the growth of crops or plants, shortening the time it would normally take a season for grains to mature to one month. Price: 400 gold coins."

"Item number C179, white mask. Wearing it can slightly adjust one's appearance, such as making the eyes bigger, the nose higher, or the skin whiter, but only on the face. Price: 200 gold coins."

"Item number C330, Princess dress. It looks like an ordinary dress, but it actually has a 1-cubic-meter space inside that can store all kinds of items, whether it's weapons or strange objects. Price: 200 gold coins."

Robson explained the functions and prices of the five strange objects, and Locke was stunned.

Surprisingly, the usually low-profile Robson is the richest investigator.
