Chapter 5 - Chapter 5 City of Bultum (Part 1)

As Frederick woke me up he was holding a metal piece like an armor. I rubbed my eyes to see If i'm correct and I am corrcect.

"Wear this armour and the rest of it. Pick your weapon and do bot use it just buckle it in your body for emergency ok?"

I was wondering picking a weapon might complete it but just wearing it inside the city of Butts? and if it is a city there must be securities for it held mass number of people inside it. Hmmm it might be for som emergency right?

"Why do I need weapon what for? Do we have unknown enemies inside the city or its just a show off?"

He never minded of answering me fast but instead he said.

"Nope just wear it and i'll explain later."

Hmmmm. What part of city are we in and what is the deal here by the way?

"what part of city are we in?"

"well look in your surroundings right now"

hmmmm I looked everywhere to see if there's a change but it seems there is none since this is the same room I used a moment ago.

"What is the deal here? there's not even a slightest change in your room in this boat"

It seems stupid but I need to know though.

"Ok repeat what you just said?"

"all of it"

If he has an ear problem he must have told me a moment ago but in the situation earlier he can clearly hear everything I say.

"no just the part where you are"

The room in the boat?

"If it is the room in the boat"

"yes and where is the room located?"

"in the boat?"

"yes and where would the boat go if It will land?"

"in the port right?"

"yes"

Well he should told me a long time or a moment ago rather than having many riddles.

"so you mean we are here in the floating port?"

"yes but whats the problem about that haven't you seen floating port before?"

"no but it is too big right?"

"nope i'm used to this, i'll lead you to the port but just follow "

"I'm not a kid anymore so why Do I need to follow you anyways"

"Oh didn't I told you that the security here is very deadly that if you perhaps bring a weapon you can be punished for your weapon threat"

Wait what?! Bringing a weapon is a threat then why dis he told me to bring a weapon did this guy wanted me to go to jail?!

"If weapon is really prohibited here then why did you told me to bring a weapon?! Is this all set up?!"

But he seems too tired to answer but he asnwered me anyways.

"Because I'm in a senior level adventurer and quest and a certified dungeon hunter of course I'm excempted to the rules of the ousider and I live here as 400 years citizen so I'll just tell you are my assisstant ok?"

Hmmm so thats why even he brought his staff. The guards won't even bother checking for he is a citizen and he would just let them think that I am his assisstant. well good enoug- WAIT Did he say his a citizen over 400 YEARS!!!!!

"Your over 400 years old?!"

He just smiled and said

"nope"

I felt relieved for he might be joking so I laughed

"hahahahaha so your really joking right?"

His happy face gives me a face of questioning"

"Joking about what?"

"Your age right you just said your not 400 years old right?"

"yeah i'm not 400 years old"

"so your joking?"

"no for I am not 400 because i'm 550 years old"

Wa...he...wha...what! He is 550 years old did he use some potion of youth?!

"C'mon we should hirry for the inspection lets go"

He pulled my hand for we are in a rush. We climbed the stairs fast and the scenery was not night it might 9:30 am in the morning if you'll base it on the position of the sun.
