Chapter 6 - Chapter 6: Death

*Cough! Cough!* The old man cough after hearing what Kiro said. He look at kiro strangely.

"How much?" He look around them and then whisper. His voice is so low because he think that gaining money from selling his hair is so shameful. He's just a poor old man who's working hard to gain money.

"I can give you 20 silvers for that, you like that?" Kiro said while smirking. He look at old man and waiting for his decision.

"Okay, Wait for me here." The poor and small old man left. Then after a couple of minute there's a man with a hat walking towards Kiro. He has a two bag in his hands and then he look at his surrounding to confirm if there's someone who recognized him. He sigh of relief that there's no one who recognized him. He reach his and give the bags to Kiro.

"Here it is, I separate the mustache to the hair." Kiro take the bags and take a look at inside. The old man expect that kiro will be satisfied with this because 20 silver is a huge money for him.

"Okay, this is better! Thanks, old man!" Kiro thank the old man, well who has a courage to sell his hair and mustache. That's too shameful. The old man left quickly without look at his surroundings because there might be someone who will recognize him if he do that.

"That's to shameful, Haha." Kiro just laugh at old man and he walk as well to the corner where no one will see him. He took out the hair but still can't use it because it can't be put. He need a sticky material that can help him put the hair into his head.

"I can buy bubble gum in that store." He murmured at himself. He walk towards the store and he saw the owner inside of it.

"What're you buying?" The owner ask kiro when she saw him. Kiro look at the story and saw that there's a bubble gum.

"Can I buy that one?" Kiro pointed at the small gum with rectangle shape. The owner of shop look at him strangely.

"Yes, is a gum you are talking about? That's one silver for each." The owner smile at kiro. Kiro took out the pocket and he rubbed it. His face suddenly become ugly.

'I don't have any money!' Yes, he obviously buy the hair and mustache with all money he have.

"Can I exchange it with a magic potion?" Kiro said at the owner. The owner nodded and kiro took out the potion. He give it to the owner of the shop.

"This is worth 25 silvers. Go and take 25 pieces of gums." Kiro took the 25 pcs of gums and leave. after that he went to the corner and put the gum into the hair. He put the hair into his head and mustache in his face. He looks like an old man and he walk out from the corner.

His eyes suddenly went wide because he came across his mother. His mother has a bag in his shoulder and walking in a road. She look at him and she felt like she know that old man.

'Do I know that person?' Kiro's mother thought to herself. She did not care about it and she walk pass kiro. Kiro quickly walk towards the gate and he encounter the guard. The guard look at him and inspect his face. Kiro forgot to put a wrinkles in his face but the guard most likely did not notice it.

"Okay, Don't go in a middle of forest or deeper. It is either you will get kill by beast or you will pass through the Divine City" The guard said to him. Kiro look at the gate and the big wall that surround the city of Arcero. The royal family put the wall because there's a possibility that the beast will infiltrate the city. Another thing is there are small amount of strong cultivator in Arcero City.

Kiro nodded at guard and he walk towards the city. When he enter he feels like everything around him is different.

"I feel like I enter into some sort of portal. The aura I feel here is unpleasant and unsafe. My plan is to absorb the Fire Potion here and kill a fire beast to get some core beast." Kiro said to himself while walking slowly and carefully. There are beast that can manipulate element like lizard, it can manipulate fire and spit some fire in its mouth. Kiro decided to hunt fire element beast and the core stone of the beast is suitable in his core.

Every beast has a core stone and that is the source of their energy. They inhale energy into the atmosphere and put it into their core just like human. The human inhale energy into heaven and atmosphere to gather it into their core but that's not sufficient to make them stronger. That's why there are potion and other stuff that helps them to increase the density and power of the energy in their core.

Kiro walk slowly, he is young but the way he moves carefully is like an adult. That's because when he was a child, his dad always training his body and mind. He just lack some life or death experience but after he encounter the big guy who almost kill him. He experience something in his life and change his perspective.

'I must stay alert and moves ruthlessly.' Kiro said to himself. He walk slowly and carefully but he suddenly step at the branch of a tree that's the cause of sound to the surrounding. He look at the branch at his feet and then he feels like someone is watching him. He looks at his front and his eyes become wide open. He saw the lizard with the height of 2 feet and the length of 2 meters looking at him.

'What the actual f*ck?' He said to himself.

'Run!!!' He run away and the Lizard chase him. What an idiot, he said to himself that he must stay alert and that's what happen.
