Chapter 37: ‡※Walking Around the City All Alone‡※‡
...
As Cyrus was immersed in the beauty and magnificence of the city, Shane tapped Cyrus shoulder once again, quickly returning back out of his delusions.
He looked to his mother and Shane quickly responded before he could ask her, "Since I gave brief facts about the city and the Shi clan before arriving here, I would like to tell that don't cause too much trouble." She said.
Baffled, "Uhm, Okay... But are going somewhere?" Cyrus asked.
"Yeah, both I and your father had a business to do, just stroll around the city whenever you like, we'll catch you up later before dawn," Shane said and with a turn of her body, both she and James quickly leaped up and suddenly disappeared at Cyrus' sight.
Seeing his parents disappeared just like that, Cyrus sighed as he turned around with a wry smile on his face as he walked at a slow pace.
Suddenly, Lily's lazy voice resounded on his mind, [What's up? Did you finally arrived in the city?] she asked.
"Yeah, Oh Lily, I remember. I gotta look around somewhere to see if there's something you like." Cyrus faintly smiled as he muttered in silence that he could only hear. "The price of goods here is extremely cheap!"
[Really!?] Lily's lazy voice turned into an explosive bomb, as she was startled to what she had heard.
"Right." Cyrus chuckled as he quickly started looking around the roads to see a useful shop that he could find for the things he could buy for the two girls.
He was only showing gratitude to the two for being happy in a boring place inside his dantian, and in the future, they would also be together. He certainly doesn't hate to do this thing because there will be a day when he would need the strength of the two when the time has come when he can't handle the enemies he's confronting
'Since there was nothing to do, I guess I could build a house for my four spirits and might as well add another room for my future gravity spirit.'
Cyrus sighed as he started to walk around and listened to Lily's wants, and to his shock, Lily, despite her personality, she actually has not requested anything other than breezy clothes!
Moreover, what shook him the most is that Lynae has also requested a simple request, and that is cute clothes!
'Did something happened to them? I did not expect for them to be like this... I guess I had to agree what they want as for I promised back then.'
Cyrus walked into a store called, 'Xianlei Hardware Shop' he stopped by the door, and with a nervous sigh; he mustered all his courage before entering the shop.
Back then, in his previous life. Cyrus has always been isolated out from social life, he never even had a facebook, twitter, or reddit back then, he uses the internet just to find useful knowledge and do his homework.
He did not even have any friends leading him to be an introverted person. Making a crowded place very exhausting for him and meeting people is really tiring if he were to say.
To Cyrus, he could only hope that his introversion would not drag his life here and set aside those useless things away from him now.
*Clingling*
Once Cyrus had opened the door and walked inside, he noticed that there are many customers inside the store, and most of them, by the looks of it, they are all carpenters.
Once he had entered, the customers had taken a glance at him and knowing that this youth is a demi-human, they could not help to get to talk in silent.
Cyrus walked towards the counter and bought miscellaneous things for construction, he bought materials such as a different kind of measuring equipment, tools, pen, and one bundle of paper.
And to his shock, the prices aren't that much, overall it only cost five yellow crystal!
Cyrus was immediately delighted by this fact before leaving in the store with a smile on his face.
When he walked out of the shop, he suddenly heard quick running steps coming towards his right.
*Thug*
Cyrus did not budge but when he looked to the person who budges him, he saw that it was a kid between 12-14 years old, his face was pale, but also sweats are running around his head to his neck.
"I'm sorry mister!" The kid quickly apologized as he ran as fast as he can once again. Cyrus was baffled but he did not pay any attention to that brat as he continued to stroll around.
Soon, he suddenly heard multiple footsteps running and it was accompanied by loud shouts, "Quick! I saw that brat running towards here!"
When Cyrus heard this, he quickly turned his head towards them and realizing that the kid that budged him is being chased, he couldn't help to get slightly worried, and when he was about to turn around and follow them, his body suddenly froze.
'Also, try not to worry about other people, they have their own lives, and it was for them to solve their own problems...'
He suddenly remembered his mother's words last night that quickly made his body stiff. Soon, it went soft again, with a turn of his head he walked away from the opposite direction where the kid run off.
As he was casually strolling on the streets, he bought a stick of street food while walking in silence; he was still looking around for a clothes store.
And minute had only passed, Cyrus casually flicks the stick away before finally seeing a clothes shops.
For Cyrus, he was glad that the languages in this world are really similar and use the same writing system.
Before Cyrus could enter the building size store, he quickly noticed multiple guards guarding this place and every time a customer wants to enter the shop, the guards would quickly inspect them.
'What's up with this place? Is there a celebrity or something?'
Cyrus was quiet, before walking forward towards the entrance. And because of this, the guards had quickly looked at him and inspected him. However, because of his Gates of Asura seals, his aura could not leak out as his strength was suppressed right now, but his spiritual sense was still sharp as ever.
Identifying Cyrus as a normal commoner, the guards did not bother him as they let Cyrus entered the store.
{Girls, I'm inside, I'm going to stroll in each row and tell me if you picked something okay?}
[Alright!] 2x
When he entered, he quickly strolled around in each row and when he reached the fourth row, Lily's voice resounded immediately.
[I want that one!]
"Hm?" Cyrus turned around to where Lily's aura is pointing at; when he noticed that clothes his eyes widened when he saw the design of it.
It was red hanfu clothes, with multiple graceful and beautiful embroidery, there was nothing to describe, as it was only plain yet beautiful. Moreover, to Cyrus, no matter what Lily wore, she would remain a beautiful woman.
When he was about to pick up the clothes, a voice coming to his back resounded.
"Dirty pleb, get out of my way. I will take that dress." A female cold voice rang out, Cyrus stopped as he looked to this person.
What he had seen was a graceful woman at the age of eighteen, and she wore a fancy dress that Cyrus could immediately tell that this woman is a noble person from the royal city.
Seeing this woman had quickly made Cyrus concluded that this woman is protected by those guards outside the store.
Despite this woman is already radiating with a late stage of Knight rank aura, Cyrus did not actually try to move away as he looked at her.
"Sorry, since I am already this close and was about to take it, it could be said that this is already mine right?" Cyrus faintly smiled as he turned around once again and took the clothes.
The woman was dumbfounded at what she had seen and heard this young looking commoner had actually refused her order and tried to exchange logic with her?
This quickly enraged the woman and when she was about to retort, she quickly noticed that Cyrus was already gazing at him with cold eyes, "Don't make any trouble for me missy..." he said.
Despite Cyrus gazed at her with a normal look, his brows still looked so fierce, so, it made him looked like she was threatening her, he had also released a small amount of paladin rank that quickly caught by her senses!
The noblewoman had sucked her tongue back as she was taken aback to Cyrus strength that he had sent out to this woman, she could not help to quiver as she turned around and walked away with a cold harrumph.
Seeing this woman had finally moved away without a trouble, he was glad that this noble woman was not extremely arrogant that could further complicate things.
Once Cyrus had taken this beautiful hanfu clothes, he turned around and looked for Lynae's clothes. When Lynae had picked something, her clothes were much cozier than what Lily had chosen, it was an old western style jacket, and she had also taken fancy to a beret hat.
He took this cloth and quickly paid everything before leaving the store without a hitch.
And when he finally left, there was a woman in a corner covering her mouth as if she was avoiding to be heard by someone, and this woman is the noblewoman that Cyrus had encountered earlier.
Her brows were knitted together as she frowns, yet sighed as if she had seen a hope for something, "I think, he could save me."
(A.N: She is not a love interest, not the female mc either.)
