After five days of travel they could finally see large stone walls. These walls were seven meters tall. Not even beasts would be able to post them. At the city entrance you could see a few guards inspecting the travelers before they enter the city.
Seeing the city in front. Henry looks to his son.
"Ell, can you see? This is the Green Lake City one of the greatest city in this region. when we enter the city I'll give you six thousand silver to spend some time in the city and buy a few things while your father will take care of business. In three hours we meet at the auction house."
"Yes, Father."
...
Inside the city, Elijah got a coin purse from his father. "I'm going to sell our products, remember to meet me in three hours." and Henry walked away with a few family's guards behind him.
After half an hour in the shop he saw a few potions, Spell books, Magic Wands, Spirit Weapons and several other things before he heard a voice.
...
"Look! Sister, this boy is so cute. I'm going to talk with him..."
"Wait! Sister" But she could not stop her sister from approaching the young boy.
Looking closer the boy her sister was talking about how cute he was. This boy had a head full of short black hair and large, clear gray eyes with long eyelashes compared to a girl's. And with his fine clothes, his outstanding appearance could easily draw the eyes of others.
"Hey little boy, what are you doing? You are lost?" Elijah saw two beautiful girls with similar facial facial features and near fifteen years old, walking in his direction.
"Oh no, I'm just spending time before meeting with father in the auction house, but I don't even know where it is" The girl in the front eyes lit up: "So you are going to the auction too? There still a few hours left why not spend some time with us? My name is Layla and this is my twin sister Lucy."
Despite feeling a little shy the boy still introduced himself. "Hello Sister! I'm Elijah Branches, nice to meet you."
Layla hold his hand and took him with her. "We're going to a cake shop nearby, you can go with us while waiting for the auction."
Then Lucy held his other hand: "Yes! Go with us."
After thinking for a while, Elijah still followed the two sisters.
In the dark space.
Shadow was sleeping, but the noise caused by the sisters wakes her. "Shit! I only slept for a bit and he's already going out with twin sisters!"
When they arrived at the cake shop. A loud cry echoed. "A thief!, Someone help!" Elijah left the sisters and chased the thief leaving several afterimages and quickly launched his hammer on the head of the thief and took the coin purse and returned it to the owner.
Layla and Lucy were shocked when they saw Elijah coming back with the hammer in his hand as if nothing had happened. "Sisters, are we not going to enter the store?"
Layla recovered from the shock and squeezed Elijah's cheeks. "Little brother, why do not you tell your big sister that you were so strong?"
"Sister stops squeezing little brother's cheeks, I want to eat the cake before the auction." Layla stopped, and then Lucy squeezed his cheeks. "This big sister also want to know how you are so strong." Elijah could not stand it any more. "Stop doing this outside!" and carried the two of them in the shop.
