Julian raised an eyebrow at the baby oil, puzzled by its presence among the more provocative items.
“What the hell even is that?” he asked, half-laughing and half-genuine in his confusion. “And why does it have no description?”
The System replied with a hint of amusement in its voice, “I don’t know, Host. It’s just there.”
Julian shook his head, trying to make sense of it. “So, it’s just… baby oil? No context at all? That’s pretty random.” He chuckled, imagining how out of place it seemed next to whips and collars.
“Maybe it’s for a different kind of adventure?” he joked. His mind racing with all sorts of absurd scenarios.
“Well, it’s not exactly what I expected to find here,” he mused, glancing back at the other options. “Guess I’ll stick to the more exciting stuff for now.”
System searched its memories and said,” That was what the previous host got after defeating and looting the villain is his world,”
Julian asked, “Villain? What was his name?” in surprise.
The system said, ” It was something like did..dide.. Oh yeah Diddler”
Julian couldn’t help but burst into laughter at the System’s response. “Diddler? Seriously? That sounds like a bad joke!”
“What kind of villain goes around with a name like Diddler?” He shook his head in disbelief trying to picture a villain with a name like that.
The System replied, still slightly amused, “Well, he was notorious for his… questionable activities. The name sucked tho, I suppose.”
Julian wiped a tear from his eye, still chuckling. “I guess that explains the baby oil then. But man, what a bizarre world. I can only imagine the kind of adventures he had to deal with.”
He looked back at the shop options,. “I wonder if I’ll encounter anyone as ridiculous as that guy.”
Julian rubbed his hands together. “I’ll take the invisibility cloak, Rule of conqueror and crystal visual,” he said confidently. “And why not throw in a whip for good measure? You never know when it might come in handy.”
The System joined in, “Total cost will be 16,000 points, host. Are you sure you want to proceed with the purchase?”
Julian nodded, a grin spreading across his face. “Absolutely! I can’t wait to see how these will help me on my adventures.”
The System confirmed, “Processing your order…”

As the transactions completed, Julian felt a rush of energy surge through him. He looked at the newly acquired items in his inventory.
“This is going to be fun,” he thought, already imagining the ways he could use his new tools to navigate both the challenges ahead and the alluring opportunities waiting in the royal palace.
As Julian equipped the Invisibility Cloak, he felt a rush of energy course through him. The fabric of the cloak was soft yet durable, wrapping around him like a second skin. Instantly, he noticed the world around him blur and fade, as if he had stepped into another dimension.
He chuckled softly to himself, marveling at his newfound ability. With this cloak, he could explore the castle without anyone noticing, slipping through shadows and eavesdropping on conversations without a trace.
The fun of being unseen filled him with a sense of excitement and mischief. With a smirk on his face, Julian took a deep breath and decided to venture deeper into the academy, eager to see what secrets it held.
As Julian stepped into the hall marked “Do Not Enter,” the air thickened with an aura of ancient power. The room was dimly lit, lined with shelves filled with various artifacts and scrolls, each radiating a unique energy.
He could see weapons, shimmering crystals, and mysterious potions nestled and age-old scrolls, some unfurled slightly. His eyes widened with curiosity as he approached a particularly striking artifact: a glowing orb pulsating softly. It seemed to hum with a rhythmic energy, drawing him closer. At the same time, an intricately designed scroll caught his attention, its writing glowing faintly, revealing snippets of spells and incantations.
Julian’s heart raced at the possibilities. What knowledge lay within these ancient items?
Julian then saw a magical barrier that was invisible and was obstructing his invisibility cloak. He frowned as he thought, ” Can i pass through the barrier undetected?”
Julian took a deep breath, feeling a surge of adrenaline as he approached the magical barrier. It shimmered ominously as it casted a rippling waves of energy that glowed in the dim light of the hall.
“Can I enter the barrier without anyone noticing?” he asked the system, his curiosity battling with the caution in the back of his mind.
“Yes, host,” the system replied smoothly. “You can bypass the barrier with the invisibility cloak equipped.
With a grin, Julian tightened the cloak around him and stepped towards the barrier with his heart racing.
As he passed through, the world outside faded, and he found himself in a hidden chamber filled with even more powerful artifacts and knowledge. It was as if this space was in another dimension completely detached from the real world.
This was it. The secrets of the Royal Academy awaited him. He quickly scanned the room as he moved stealthily through the space, ready to uncover whatever treasures lay hidden behind the veil of the magical barrier.
