Chapter 58: A Tour In the Town
Chapter 58: A Tour In the Town
Jim smiled as he recalled the rich gains he had. The next thing he did was to take out each ring and drop a single blood over it.
The owners of these rings were long dead, making them ownerless. And ownerless items in this world were weak.
"Wow, these guys have they robbed a bank or something?" he was astonished by the amount of coins, orbs, potions, pillsetc. he found inside these rings. "I didn't expect them to be this rich!"
'They are thieves, this isn't a big deal if they used to hijack players for a long time.'
'But they are supposed to attack only those lower to them.'
'Or at their levels.'
'Do you mean?'
'Yeah, they work as small groups belonging to one big organization that they all answer to,' the old man explained, 'this crime attitude all started long ago by dragons, and since then everyone started to follow their example.'
'Dragons?!!' Jim exclaimed in shock, 'Don't tell me'
'The big boss of these are dragons without doubt.'
''
'I know, hard to believe right?'
'Frankly speaking, this suits them better,' Jim still held the grudge against that dragon which turned his life upside down before.
'I totally agree with you. Now you need to act as a normal disciple and not ask for trouble. Go and buy your clothes, books, and other stuff while taking advantage of sending everyone out to check anything before speaking with that usher.'
Jim sighed before throwing all the rings back into his main ring. He now had enough wealth to buy himself one token at least. With a wealth of slightly passing a thousand academy coins, he was much confident about getting his hands on one.
"I agree to hire you," Jim said while taking out a hundred orbs in one go, "these are just the advance payment to you."
"All these" Rili seemed surprised, "thanks a lot, I'll make sure you will be greatly satisfied."
He hurriedly took the orbs simply by moving his whirlpool towards them. "That's exactly what I'm looking for," Jim vaguely said this while glancing at others, "we'll go to buy ourselves clothes and books. Do you need anything else?"
"Speaking like a tycoon already," Jenny laughed while Rick winked to the others. This werewolf youth seemed to tell everyone about what Jim did just now.
"Can we buy gears?"
"Ores?"
"Ornaments?"
Can we stay in the motel for one day?"
"A meal in a restaurant will do."
All started to narrate their needs and desires, while Jim sneered. "Why not ask to buy this entire town as well?" he said while sighing, "you guys c'mon, lead us towards the best clothes shop."
"Follow me," Rili seemed quite enthusiastic by the payment Jim just did, and so he started to move fast, leading them inside the town.
The town was such a bustling place with many races. All the things Jim imagined or never crossed his mind were sold there, even pets and slaves!
He even noticed a group of slaves being sold at astronomical prices, all were Bulltors.
Deno glanced at him, while he whispered, "Another time, we have enough trouble with one Bulltor."
Deno sighed and didn't say a word. He knew what Jim said was correct, yet he was upset to see his kin treated in such an uncivilized way.
The town was really vast. It was arranged in organized blocks, each containing half a dozen of equal height buildings stacked together and separated from other blocks by wide, clean streets.
The buildings were all three stories tall, with some special decorations and colors over their surfaces.
"We are now in the Kraken district. This is considered one of the richest places due to the gambling houses and casinos. Hotels do exist here, plus some slave trade and ornaments as well."
"We will head towards the fairy old district. It lies in the center of the town, just next to the aristocratic dragon district. There we will find all the shops dealing with disciples."
"As new disciples you'll need to buy books, tools, design your emblem and have your clothes ready. By the way what's your pantheon if I may ask?"
Rili kept speaking non-stop during the tour that extended for hours on foot. Despite this long walk, no one felt tired at all. They were all taken by the beauties each saw around, with each one having something to attract his attention in each street.
What Jim understood from Rili's words was that this town was built on the names of the pantheons back in the academy. Each district had its own taste, nature of businesses and also their unique style.
"We belong to the fairy pantheon," Ashley, who was silent all this time, spoke casually answering him.
And Rili suddenly paused while others stopped as a result.
"What did you just say?"
"Ahem," Jim interfered, "I'm a privileged inner disciple of the academy under the banner of the fairy pantheon."
"No f*cking way!!!" Rili was shocked before adding, "Are you out of your mind? There is no such a thing like that in the academy!"
