After nine days, the time had finally come. At the end of the workday, as I was closing up, Tavis approached me and handed me a stack of bills before leaving without a word.
I grabbed the money and began counting it—16,000 Berries. In terms of purchasing power, that was roughly equivalent to 130 dollars.
But now that I had the money, I hesitated. Should I buy the food my body needed, or pursue the idea in my head?
I planned to commission ten large iron spikes for combat, each 20 centimeters long and 10 centimeters thick.
If I bought the meat, it would help build my body, but the effects wouldn't be immediate. The spikes, on the other hand—once I had them, even a little training would drastically increase my combat strength.
But there was another problem: money. Even without asking, I knew 16,000 Berries wouldn't be enough for what I wanted. So I considered borrowing.
After some deep thought, I decided to prioritize the spikes. Boosting my combat ability was more urgent than physical conditioning. Once my mind was made up, I headed to a specific place.

Samuko the blacksmith was known as the best on the island.
He had lived here for over 20 years, crafting weapons for the Navy, businessmen, and even pirates—earning himself quite the reputation.
His home, which also served as his forge, was on the outskirts of the island.
It took me over two hours to reach it. "There are other blacksmiths closer, but I came all this way because of his reputation. I hope he doesn't disappoint," I thought as I knocked on the door.
A middle-aged man with messy brown hair opened the door. "What do you want, kid?"
"I need you to make something for me."
"It's late. Come back tomorrow. I'm busy."
"It's not complicated. I just want a price quote. I traveled a long way to get here."
He sighed impatiently. "Fine, make it quick."
"Alright, I need iron rods—20 centimeters long, 10 centimeters thick, with a sharpened tip..." I explained, handing him a rough sketch I'd made at home.
The blacksmith glanced at the drawing. "How many do you want?"
"Ten."
"What kind of iron?"
"The best you have."
He thought for a moment. "That'll cost you 1.2 million Berries."
"W-What? I knew it'd be expensive, but this is outrageous!" I thought, scrambling for a way to lower the price.
"What if I supply the iron myself?"
"Then you'd just pay for the labor. 330,000 Berries."
After some haggling, we settled on 240,000 Berries, and I told him I'd bring the iron in the next few days.

*Midnight*
I stood in my room, looking out the window at the nearby blacksmith's shop. I'd been watching the guard for two days—he always left for coffee at this time, giving me just 15 minutes.
"Sorry, shopkeeper, but I need this iron."
I opened the window, jumped out, and headed toward the shop, wearing a small mask in case anyone saw me.
I slipped into the alley behind the building and used my telekinetic power to open a first-floor window. I climbed inside quietly, removing my shoes to avoid making noise.
After searching the floor I'd entered, I found nothing, so I descended to the lower level.
When I reached the ground floor and saw the tools and weapons, I knew this was what I was looking for.
There were several iron bars, but none seemed high-quality. Since I was stealing anyway, I might as well take the best. After some searching, I spotted three well-preserved iron rods of excellent quality.
I levitated them with my power and slipped back out the window. The rods floated silently behind me as I returned to my room through the window. I hid them carefully and fell asleep.

The next day, after work, I went to the blacksmith and handed him the iron. We agreed I'd return for the finished spikes in a week.

The Next Day
Carla's POV:
I looked at Tavis, who was still asleep, and whispered, "I'm sorry." He loves me sincerely, but I'm messing with a little boy.
I got out of bed because I needed to make breakfast for Luka and Tavis. I quickly cooked and put the food on the table.
When I saw that it was time for Luka to wake up, I took off my underwear, pulled down the short dress I was wearing to cover my buttocks, and went up to the bathroom.
I went up at this time so that when Luka woke up, we could tease each other a little, because he was getting home late, and I didn't have time to be alone with him.
I went into the bathroom, grabbed my toothbrush, and pretended to brush my teeth while waiting for Luka.
A short while later, Luka entered the bathroom, his morning erection showing no sign of hiding it. I saw in the mirror that he smiled and walked over to me.
He placed his penis between my butt cheeks, his hands roaming down my stomach, near my vagina. He buried his lips in my neck and began kissing me, whispering, "Good morning, beautiful."
"Ah, this guy, he's addictive," I thought as I felt his hard penis between my legs.
End of Carla's POV.
After I placed my penis between her buttocks and began fondling her, I noticed something strange: she wasn't wearing any underwear.
I lifted her dress and looked down at her bare buttocks. I placed my penis between her legs, touching her vagina.
I slipped my hand under her dress and grabbed her breasts for the first time. "How soft!"
Even if I were an idiot, I would understand that her behavior was a clear signal for me to do what I wanted.
I turned her head so she could look me in the eye and asked, "Can I?"
"Ahhh..." She let out a sexy moan and nodded. She leaned closer to my face and planted a kiss on my lips.
I removed her dress completely, revealing Amay's voluptuous body with large breasts and pink nipples, a slightly swollen belly, and a pink vagina that oozes with fluids, welcoming me in.
"Don't look at me like that," Carla said, placing her hands to hide her breasts.
I walked over to her, kissed her lips, and said, "Even though I want to fuck you so badly, we won't have our first time like this. In the bathroom, and we shouldn't make any noise so Tavis doesn't notice. Let's wait for a better opportunity."
"Okay." Carla, utterly embarrassed, simply nodded, put on her dress, and left the bathroom.
After a short while, I went out again and went down to have breakfast. Then i left for work with tavis.
Now all could think about was how to get the money to pay the blacksmith.
