You need Ulrik if you're gonna get outta this damn city, you can't just leave him at the city guard's mercy.

>>801776
The guards round the corner and approach the shop.

Guard 1: It's coming from over here! hurry up.

You: Guard ! Guard! I need your help, Its urgent!

You: There are demon summoning heretics in that shop trying to attack the poor upstanding shop keeper, please you have to apprehend them !

Guard 2: Don't worry ma'am, we're on it.

The guards continue down to the shop and you follow behind, The Roaming Gluttony (Mr Chompers) has fully dissolved and it seems the Voodoo boss is gone along with the little guys corpse. Ulrik is standing behind his counter running his fingers through his hair.

Ulrik: Damn Shadowmen, d'ey actually managed ta get me shop dis time, can't turn ya back fo a secon' in dis damn city.

Guard 1: Don't worry sir we've got this under control, we'll clean up the blood and the voodoo sign but we cant cover the damages to the window or any other property in the building.

Ulrik: Ye'... O'course ye' can't, anyway ey got business else where so al be gettin' on me way.

Ulrik walks over to you holding a note and a package.

Ulrik: Thanks fer 'holdin' off dem voodoo usin' bastards miss.

So is Mr Chompers dead, or did he just get unsummoned by losing physical form?

>Thanks fer 'holdin' off dem voodoo usin' bastards miss.
Thumbs up, or some other non-verbal sign of approval.

We'll have to leave quietly for now while the guards are cleaning things, we'll double back when things have calmed down and they're not looking over everything.

Sounds like he was watching what was going on.

When you get a chance, ask if he could help smuggle you out of the city.

Demons can't die, they just lose their physical form and return to the Aether even if they crossed over to the physical world themselves instead of being summoned. Priest have methods of real killing demons though.

You make your way back with Ulrik.

>>801810
You: How'd you know I beat those guys ?

Ulrik: I got's viewin' sygil's written on me shop walls an hooked up to a moniter in da basement. You's got quite da shot wit a pistol ya know.

You: Thanks, is that the stuff for Luucc ?

Ulrik: Nah, but ah need dis stuff ta get Luucc's stuff. dere's a whole orda to dese dings.

You: Also umm, is you're smuggling business okay ? Those guards aren't gonna find important stuff down in you basement if they serach right.

Ulrik: Nuh-uh, Ah keep me smugglin' stuff at anotha place. Dey ain't gonna find nothin' but orda forms and ingots.

You: Is there anyway you could smuggle a person ? like outta the city ?

Ulrik: Sure ding, but we oughta talk about it when we reach Lucc's Inn.

You and Ulrik arrive back at Luucc's Inn

Luucc: You're back! and you brought Ulrik! This is perfect!

Ulrik: Sup Luucc? me shop got wrecked and Shadowmen may be tryin' ta kill me, Ahm stayin' here until dis dies down.

Ulrik: Oh an' Ah'll make da deal wit me contacts about ya ingredients tomorra', Ah'm goin' ta sleep.

Ulrik goes upstairs and takes his stuff with him leaving you with Luucc.

Luucc: Thank you so much for this miss! I don't know how I could ever-

You: MONEY.

Luucc: O-Oh, Yes of course !

Luucc hands you a sack of 200 Gold.

Luucc: Also, I was thinking about that thing you said before about selling food and decided that I should get some of the old cookbooks from the back and try to make some meals!

You: Never said anything about food, but now that you mention it I haven't eaten anything all day.

Luucc: I've got four things on my menu so far, what would you like ?

A) Roc Dumplings: Made from the legendary bird of prey, these dumpling are a delicious light meal that won't make you feel too full after you eat. In fact you may feel lighter and more AGILE than before.

B) Desert Onion Burger: A hearty burger full of different breeds of desert onion, legend has it that the mixture of onions has a strange effect on the eater causing them to sweat out any dirt in their pores making them more CHARMING.

C) Warboar Stew: Warboars are one of the strongest beasts found in the wild, soldiers believe that by eating their flesh they too can gain their power and become STRONGER.

D) Tingling Gel Cubes: A mixture of sweet fruits and nutritious vegetables coagulated into cubes. The way the fruits and vegetables are prepared stimulate key parts of the brain and are said to help improve THINKING

No. 801994 ID: cfe4f0

Do we actually have something like functional biology, or are we just bluffing about the need to eat food here?

Better question: Do we have any kitchen talent? 'Cuz kitchen help usually gets fed for free in addition to their wages, and that might be worth it if we can bag something extra to travel with in the process.

Alternatively:
-We probably could use more magic user stuff, including another mirror.
-We might get away with looting Ulrik's shop a little, although I'm wary of stealing from someone we need help from that might wait for the last moment to punish us. Perhaps salvage his merchandise, deliver it, and ask for something to take on the way?
-Overnight is a long time to stay in a hot city where we are an identified fugitive. Do we want to try to leave sooner than that?

Also, our strength is pitiful, what if we get some cool loot to carry or need to prove our manliness in a test of strength?

B, desert onions, FTW. Hard work is for the suckers we trick into doing it for us, and charm helps us get away with that.

You order the Warboar Stew, The hot thick broth and chunky bits of beef go together perfectly. There's a bit of spiciness to it too that adds another layer of warmth. Filling and very well made.

>>801994
You don't really need to help out in the Inn, you've made a nice chunk of change for the day. Besides you're also very tired and the stew you ate is only making you groggier.

As for your magic supplies mirrors aren't the only things you can use for summoning, a lot of the time ingredients don't specifically call for a mirror usually its "Something Reflective" or "Something Rusty" maybe, It depends on what you want to summon. Still, more ingredients and materials would be nice to have. Ulrik's going to find his supplier to get Luucc's stuff tomorrow, maybe that'll a good place to shop.

Scavenging around a shop thats probably swarming with city guards after a heretical gang fight might not be a great idea either, plus you don't want to steal from a guy helping you.

As for leaving the city early, you need Ulrik to get out of here and he's sleeping upstairs. There's no way you're gonna just walk out of this place being wanted and all, plus the so called Shadowmen seem like trouble. Your best bet is to go to sleep and wait for morning.

You pay Luucc 20 gold for a room and head up the stairs.

Is that a window? What can you see from there?

Check if it is open or if you can open it, it could be useful to have an emergency exit just in case.

Also, Your knife is for rituals only, or you can use it to defend yourself? If the latter then I recommend putting it under the pillow, just in case.

There aren't many places to hide in here so you doubt someone would be in waiting to strike, nothing under the bed and the dresser doesn't have enough room to hide in or behind. The dresser does have 5 Gold left in it though.
You don't know any rituals that would protect you and summoning would give off a lot of demonic energy that could be tracked, it's best you just rely on your own extremely built physique in case.

>>802345
The window can be opened and closed, you've got a nice view of Itsdin rooftops. you place your knife under your pillow just in case anyone comes creeping into your room
