The duo of older men quickly stated that 500 gold was far too much, and they only needed about 50 gold to get him the best of the best in all aspects, a price which Darius paid upfront.
Darius was quite happy about that as well, since he did not in fact have 500 gold as he had claimed. On the day before the four of them had set out, he had told Foldo to hand him some spending money.
The bandit boss had handed him a bag with around 100 gold coins, apologizing that he did not have more liquid funds while Darius himself had already nearly spent all the coins he transmuted.
Now, he was down to 8, although he could always transmute some more if he really needed to. However, he had already gotten everything he needed in his opinion, so he would refrain from doing so for the time being.
Darius thanked the old Land's Commissioner and left the establishment with Shanks and co after Bistro assured him that everything would be completed in the span of one month.
