D.E.M.O.N.S: Getting Summoned Weekly isn't so Bad

Chapter 54: Honestly I need to Get Back to Summonings, I Promise Only 1 More Chapter of Earth Stuff After This

After the group finished eating lunch Vivian addressed everyone and said ”So, we donʼt have much time before we have to go and meet my friend. Kat you have five minutes to go buy something”

”What are you talking about Vivian?” said Kat

”Well I did say that you need at least one thing to decorate your room” said Vivian

”What about Sylvie? She only picked up a book, I can just pay for one of Lilyʼs” said Kat

In response Sylvie pulled out a bag and placed it on the table. Inside were a number of decorations for her room. Some notable inclusions where a tiny rug, a stuffed demon toy that had batwings and a tail similar to Katʼs, with black hair and red eyes and of course the book mentioned earlier.

”When did you pick up so much stuff” said Kat

”When you were getting your picture taken. Lily and I grabbed a few things that looked nice” said Sylvie with a cheeky grin.

*Ugh, so now I have to go looking for something? Like what?*

”What am I even supposed to grab Vivian? Iʼve never really decorated my room before” said Kat

”Well you have to pick something, and you have four minutes now, go shoo” said Vivian

Kat looked around for help from Lily or Sylvie but they just both shrugged at Kat like it was none of their concern.

”Really Lily even you?” said Kat

”Honestly Kat, I think having a bit of personality in you room will do you good” said Lily

Kat sighed and looked around the food court searching for something easy to grab.

”You wonʼt find anything right here. Youʼll have to find something outside of the food court. Better start walking. I promise weʼll keep up” said Vivian with her trademark smile

*Fine… I think I saw a shop with some nicknacks around.* Backtracking a slight way Kat found the shop she had been looking for. It didnʼt seem to have a visible but inside it had a large collection of random things.

From clocks to coasters, from sculptures of fairies, to carvings of toads somehow this shop seemed to pack everything into it. *The only problem with this shop is that most of this stuff isnʼt that well made.* Thought Kat as she examined one of the nicer looking fair sculptures before putting it down.

Kat let her eyes wander through the shop. *So what can I get? Maybe a clock? Thatʼs at least somewhat practical for me to have.* Moving towards the section housing the clocks Kat was surprised by one clock in particularly. The clockface was fairly standard but the edges were decorated with a fire pattern that seemed to shift and change in colour. *Thereʼs no way… Hey system is this a magical clock? It shifts a bit like the flames when I get summoned.*

--

D.E.M.O.N.S can detect no magic within the identified object. User Kat is required to touch it for complete affirmation.

--

*Should I? Is it worth the risk?* Kat reached a shaky hand out towards the clock. Just as she touched it she felt a spark jump to her fingers and she stepped back. *Was that enough confirmation for you system?*

--

User Kat is informed that the clock contains no higher energy of any kind. D.E.M.O.N.S believes the highest probability is that the clock is simply malfunctioning and released a static discharge.

--

Kat felt her eye twitching as she looked at the clock awkwardly. *You mean to tell me, that the clearly bizarre clock in this strange store that changes colour and shocks people isnʼt magic?*

--

Yes. The chance of this object having magic is 0.0000000000000001%

--

”Something up with that clock Kat” said Vivian.

Kat nearly jumped out of her skin. *I didnʼt hear Vivian sneak up on me. Actually how did she sneak up on me anyway? My peripheral vision is exceptional now. How could I have missed her?*

”Nothing, itʼs a completely normal clock” said Kat

”Hmmm, but you were staring at it so intently. Is this the kind of thing you like?” said Vivian

”No, itʼs just… This reminds me of the summoning portal. Itʼs all rainbows and fire. I thought the clock might be special, but it turns out that itʼs a completely normal clock” said Kat

”Well, I thatʼs a shame. And I will say Iʼm a little disappointed that you are trying to cheat and get a clock” said Vivian

”How is it cheating to get a clock?” said Kat

”You should get something that speaks to you, I bet you thought of getting a clock because itʼs at least somewhat practical right?” said Vivian
