"Fresh herbs on sale ! Come here the best of the city !" "Come look at the best weapons at the best price !" "You want to buy jewelry for the love of your heart come in my shop, Original products of a great quality !" Zach was a bit lost hearing all the merchants boasting their shops and products, he looked left and rigth.
However Zach knew that each one of these shop would not be the one he was seeking, the best shops of the best would not need to attract new clients, they would come by themselves knowing there wasn't better in Yosa. In addition, although it was the main street, he hadn't reached the district where the shops of prestige were.
At this moment he thought of something of the utmost importance, his clothes, due to the fight he had, the clothes he was wearing were ragged and full of dirt. He could not stay like this or he would be taken for a beggar, maybe he would not even be able to enter the shop with the look he had.
He found on the side of the main street a cloth shop, there was all sorts of clothes, from the most informal to more formal ones which costed quite a lot. Zach looked at all the clothes and chose a black shirt, a dark blue jacket and pants, as for the shoes he chose confortable grey ones.
After solving this issue he continued to walk on the street and there was more and more people who were on it, Zach could see elf, dwarfs, all sorts of beastmen and humans, there was even human who were holding shops.
'It clearly is different from what is written in Kartelion's books.' Everyone seemed to be living peacefully, though it was only the tip of the iceberg but maybe there wasn't so much discrimination as it was depicted by Kartelion.
He put those thougths in the back of his head, for now he had to find someone who could tell him the way to a prestigious shop. He decided to go towards a shop held by a human, the one who held the shop asked.
"Hello sir, how may I help you ?" Even if Zach was only a young boy the man knew that he could someone of an important family, maybe an item in his shop had drawn its attention so he was respectful. Zach asked "Where are the biggest shop of the town ?"
When the one who held the shop heard this he spat on the ground and said in disdain "I don't have time for your jokes kid, go find them yourself."
He was pretty angry that a young boy would come to his shop just to ask for direction and it told him that Zach wasn't from a family with any importance as everyone in those family would know where they were and even know some who worked in them.
When Zach heard how the man replied him he didn't lost his cool but he definitely wasn't happy and would have teached him a lesson if he didn't have more important things to do. He could only turn back and continue to walk on the street while thinking of where he could have those simple information.
Just when he walked away from the shop an old dwarf, with long grey hair, a rather short beard and brown eyes interrupted his thinking "Young boy I may be able to lead you towards the shops you seek but you know times are hard would you help an old dwarf like me ?"
When Zach heard the dwarf's offer he was happy that finally someone would help him what he was seeking in this large town. He pretended to take out a gold coin from a spatial ring while he took it out from his shadow and gave it to the dwarf.
However when he took out the coin the eyes of the dwarf squinted and he let out a slight chuckle saying "Thank you young man, in these days few would do what you have done, follow me."
Zach followed the dwarf, they continued on the main street for 5 minutes, they reached a big crossroads they turned left and after another 2 minutes they turned in a smaller street. Zach was starting to doubt the dwarf as he felt that he was scammed by this old dwarf. However after another 2 minutes they arrived on a huge plaza.
All around this plaza Zach could see shops with lavish facade, there was about 10 shops and each of them was as luxurious as the other. There was shops where everything was sold and there was specialized one like the one named {Armagedon} which was the paradise for whoever wanted to buy weapon or {Mountain of nature} where you could find almost every herbs which existed.
Zach turned to thank the dwarf but he already had disappeared, the old dwarf had walked away but he kept an eye on Zach, he was looking forward to what Zach would do. Seeing that the dwarf wasn't here Zach went towards the shop mountain of nature, it was the most important shop he had to visit today.
When he entered the shop a female elf, dressed in a clean and beautiful suit welcomed him with a bright smile and enthusiasm. "Welcome to mountain of nature ! If you can tell me for what you are here I could point you where you should go in our magnificent shop." Zach nodded and replied plainly "I am seeking top notch herbs for a physical nutrition bath."
The elf nodded and she answered almost immediately as she was used to those types of needs. "Those herbs are sale on the first floor, immediately on your left." "Thank you." Zach went towards the stairs, once on the first floor he went on the left like the elf said and saw that there was already 4 peoples before him waiting to buy herbs.
After 15 minutes it was finally his turn, he was about to say what he needed when a young elf appeared from behind Zach , he pushed him and went past him he then instructed the one who was behind the desk.
"I want 2 sets of the best herbs for physical nutritious bath, right now !" Zach was angry, he refrained himself the first time with the street merchant but he started to run out of patience so he said in a firm tone. "I was before you, wait until I bought my herbs, understood !"
Zach was looking straight in the young elf eyes and a tiny bit of his death aura started to leak from his fluorescent green eyes. When the young saw Zach's eyes he gulped and was about to bow his head but he got a hold of himself and said with great haughtiness. "I am the heir of the Farstra house, a lowly human like you have no right speak to me."
Zach wanted to teach this brat a lesson right here and right now, he felt that he was at most a mid rank 1 and from his attitude it should not come from his hard work.
However when he looked around he saw that everyone was looking and mainly 2 elves from which Zach could feel a lethal threat, these two looked at him in disdain, they should be the brat's bodyguards.
Yet Zach had a mission and he could not lose time with such little things so he did not say anything nor did he do something. When the elf saw that, he thought that Zach was afraid of his status and said with arrogance "Hmph ! That's what I thought." Little did he know that he had signed his own death, but because Zach had greater things to do he would have a bit more time.
Nonetheless it wasn't because Zach didn't do anything that he would forgot the cockiness of this brat 'Heir of the Farstra, I will remember and when I have the time and opportunity you will suffer my wrath.' Zach was almost certain that the family which had such an heir would be rotten to the core but before he was certain of it he would unleash his wrath only on this boy.
The elf boy finished his business in this shop and left, for the second time, it was finally Zach turn to go buy, the vendor asked politely. "What do you need mister ?"
Zach answered irritation from what happened before still discernible. "A set of the best herbs for physical nutritious bath." The vendor nodded and inquired for more information. "Of which rank mister ?" Zach thought for a second and replied "Peak rank 1."
When others heard this they snorted and almost laughed out loud, Zach was a boy at most 13 years old and none here would believe that his body was at the peak rank 1.
However when he heard this the vendor nodded respectfully, the vendor knew, he had saw Zach's eyes when he interrupted the elf and it made him feel terror so he knew that he shouldn't be bragging.
He put the herbs on the counter and said. "15 gold coins please." Zach has prepared a few gold coins in his pocket so he reached it and placed them on the counter and left with the herbs.
'I don't know if I will end wasting energy but I never practiced the Void conqueror body so it's better if I waste some energy than if I haven't enough.'
Zach now had to seek a peaceful place where he could make his nutrition bath and improve his physical cultivation far from any prying eyes.
