After coming out of the dimensional hall, Both Yumi and Maggie exchanged contact details with Link and said their goodbyes.
Link hired a cab back to the Adventures street, he wanted to sell the items collected by him in the undead realm. As the car was moving towards the destination, Link started to plan his future actions.
Link didn't want to attract unwanted attention so he decided to dispose of low rank materials only in the adventure street. He will not sell high rank items until he finds a reliable contact or becomes strong enough to stand the pressure.
Soon the cab reached the destination, Link paid 50 Rands and started walking towards the adventure association.
Soon Link came to the reception table. Link informed his purpose to the receptionist and was told to go to the first floor.
The Adventure association building had 5 floors in total, Ground floor was known as mission hall. But it has become a famous meeting point for professionals to communicate with each-other.
First floor is for low ranking professionals, who come to buy and sell items, potions, equipment, material etc. Soon Link came to the first floor and approached the receptionist there.
"Hello, I want to sell some materials obtained from the undead plane." Link didn't waste his time and directly told his purpose to the receptionist sitting behind the desk.
Receptionist replied with a smile "you can head to one of the cubicles on the right side, there will be a golem in each cubicle who will appraise your items and give you a receipt for all submitted items, you can come back here with the receipt after submitting the items".
After getting the information he needed, Link started walking towards the right side of the hall and soon he saw many small cubicles. Each cubicle was separated from another and had red and green colored doors. According to the receptionist, red doors symbolize occupied status, while green ones are available.
Link was a bit surprised by the level of technology in this new world, but he didn't have much time to ponder on it, so he approached one of the cubicles and pushed the door open.
As soon as Link entered the room, the door closed automatically and turned red. Link saw a simple table in the middle of the cubicle with two chairs on opposite sides.
There was a metal golem sitting on the opposite side of the table, Link approached the table and took his seat.
"What is the purpose of your visit?" Link heard a metallic voice coming out of the golem.
"I want to sell some items." Link replied.
"Please take them out and put them on the table."
Link started pouring out all the dropped materials from the undead plane. After all the items were put on the table, they stacked into a small hill.
Soon metal golem started to appraise each item.
"Low-level f- rank skeleton bone."
"Low level f-rank underworld lotus"
"....."
"High level f-rank undead soul."
"High level f- rank corpse fangs"
Even though the metal golem looked very crude, it was very efficient. It took only 5 minutes for golem to sort out all the items with their rank and price.
Soon Link came out of the cubicle with a receipt of 500000 rand in his hand. Price given by the adventure association wasn't as good as the market outside, but Link didn't regret his decision to go through the association.
While you can get more money by selling same item in the market, you have to take the risk of attracting malicious people. And for Link, a little bit of price wasn't worth the trouble.
Link approached the receptionist with the receipt.
Receptionist saw Link approaching her and said "Have you completed your business?"
Link said while handing over the receipt "Yes, I would like for you to transfer the amount to my account."
"Please give me your ID card." replied the girl.
Link took out his identity card and handed it over. Soon the transfer process was completed.
"Sir, is there anything else I can help you with?" Girl said while handing over his ID card back to him.
"No thanks." Link replied and walked towards the exit.
Soon Link hired a cab and came back to the apartment. It was already four in the morning. Link was very tired so he went to sleep after checking on little Amy.
Link, who was sleeping, was woken up by the sound of an alarm. Link tried his best to open his tired eyes. It was already eight in the morning. He had to get ready for school while helping little Amy with breakfast.
Link put on the slippers and went to the washroom to freshen up. After getting ready, Link came out of the room and heard the TV's sound coming from the downstairs.
Link saw Amy watching cartoons while nibbling on the orange slices. As soon as Link came downstairs, Amy turned off the tv.
"Brother, why did you wake up so late? I'm hungry" Amy said while pouting.
Link could only smile wryly, He forgot to check time yesterday and lost track of the time in the excitement.
"Big brother was very tired yesterday, don't worry I will make Amy's favorite tomato omelet for breakfast." Link said while messing her hair.
Amy was a bit annoyed by his hands, but as soon as she heard that Link was going to cook tomato omelette for her, she was very excited.
"Yey! You are the best brother." Amy said while raising her hands over her head.
Link laughed after seeing her cute actions and went to the kitchen to start the preparations.
Tomato omelet wasn't very tasty but when mom was alive, she used to cook it usually for breakfast. After their parent's accident, Amy was sad for a long time. So Link used to cook tomato omelette to cheer her up.
Soon Link cooked breakfast and served them on the table. Amy happily started eating her omelette while sipping orange juice from time to time. Once they ate their breakfast, Link cleaned up plates and glasses, While Amy went to get her school bag from the room.
Amy and Link both studied in the same school, Amy's school building was some distance away from the high school building. So they usually go to school together. Link and Amy took the bus to the school.
After sitting in the bus for thirty minutes, Amy's drop location came. Link decided to drop Amy first then walk to his school building. Amy was also feeling happy after knowing that Link will drop her to school.
As they were walking towards the primary school building, there were many kids who were being accompanied by their parents. After looking at this scene Link felt bad for Amy. Link was aware that even though Amy acted a little mature but she was still a little kid.
So he decided to spend more time with Amy. Link's thoughts were interrupted when he heard someone calling Amy from behind.
