*Blink-Blink*
"Hmm...?" Lucian opened his eyes slowly and looked around.
He noticed that he was sleeping in a very comfortable bed with a big teddy bear on the side.
"What the fuck ?" Lucian asked as he looked at the teddy bear.
"Oh, You are back huh ?" A sweet sound rang from the other side of the room.
"Huh ? You are ?" Lucian asked with a confused expression.
"Well, I am your life saver... The one who gave you the antidote and the Healing Potions.
Now, will you tell me how you got hit with a poisonous arrow ?" She asked with a serious expression.
"Did I pay you ?" Lucian asked.
"Yes, Here is your 50 coppers change because you gave me 1 silver." She spoke as she gave the money back to Lucian.
"Thanks... I will be on my way now." Lucian spoke as he immediately left the shop.
"Wait, Wait, Wait... You can't leave like that." The lady spoke as she immediately stood in front of the exit door.
"What do you mean ?" Lucian asked with a confused expression.
"What I mean is, Where did you get hurt with this Arrow ?" She asked again.
"Why do I have to tell you this ?" Lucian asked with a serious expression.
"Because, I saved your life..."
"Yeah, and I paid you for that. Now, let me go." Lucian spoke.
"What a big attitude you have... Fine, Go." She spoke as she stepped aside from the gate.
Suddenly, Something came to Lucian's mind and he stopped.
"Umm... Do you have poison ?" Lucian asked.
"What ? Yes, But why do you want it ?" She asked.
"How annoying... I will go and ask for it on some other shop." Lucian spoke as he turned around and opened the gate.
"Wait, Wait... Fine, Which one you want ?" She immediately stopped him.
"Which one is the best you got ?" Lucian asked.
"I have this bottle of poison that can show it's effects in just 30 seconds and it deals overtime increasing damage.
Like first it will do 2 HP damage and after that it will increase to 3, 4, 5. You get the idea right ?" She asked.
"Okay... I will take it. How much ?" Lucian asked.
"10 coppers."
"Good... Give me a bottle of antidote as well." Lucian spoke.
"Hey, you aren't going to use it for some illegal thing, Right ?" She asked with a suspicious expression.
"Haa... I am going."
"Yaaa... Wait, you have more attitude than a girl. Here, 10 coppers." She spoke as she gave a bottle to Lucian that was filled with blue coloured liquid.
"How much of this do I need to drink, In order to wear off this poison's effect ?" Lucian asked.
"About 2 Gulps, Why would you drink the-" Before she could've completed her question, Lucian gave her the money and left the shop at once.
"What a wierd guy...?" She spoke with a confused expression.
As soon as Lucian exited the Alchemist's shop... He noticed that it was already evening.
"I need new clothes..." Lucian spoke as he immediately started walking towards the cloth shop.
*Ting*
"Hello, Welcome to 'Silk and Clothes'. How can I help you ?" A Human male around 5'7 in height was standing at the counter, asked in a polite tone.
"I need new clothes..." Lucian spoke with a straight face as he looked at guy.
"Okay, Sir... What kind of-"
"Any kind... I don't care. Not to fancy or attention attracting." Lucian replied.
"Oh, I have just the thing you are looking for Sir. Please give me a moment..." He spoke as he immediately went to the back of the shop and brought 3 pairs of clothes that looked just like the ones Lucian was wearing but in different colours.
"Will these work sir ?"
"It will... Pack the two of them, I will wear this one here. Do you have a changing room ?" Lucian asked.
"Yes, Sir... The changing room is that way."
"Good..."
After changing clothes and buying the two extra sets...
Lucian asked for bill, "How much ?"
"That would be 9 coppers for all of them, Sir." The shopkeeper spoke.
"Here, 10 coppers..." Lucian spoke as he left 1 copper as a tip for the shopkeeper.
"Sir, It's 9 coppers not 10." The shopkeeper spoke up.
"Yeah, 1 copper is Tip." Lucian spoke.
"Tip ?" The shopkeeper looked really confused at the word Tip.
'Ah... I forgot that Tip doesn't exist here.'
"It's for the hardwork you did in bringing these clothes to me. Just keep it..." Lucian replied.
"Sir, Are you a Royal by any chance ?"
"Give me the coin..." Lucian asked.
"I-I am sorry, Sir. I will not ask questions now... Here are your clothes."
'Why are you asking questions ? I gave you 1 copper coin for free and yet you are asking me stupid questions. Just keep it...' Lucian thought as he exited the shop and placed the extra set of clothes into his inventory.
'Show me the notifications now...' Lucian spoke.
