Chapter 156: Peculiar store [3]

After leaving the bookstore, following Amanda into the busy streets of the area we were in, we soon took a couple of turns and entered a few alleyways. As we moved into the alleyways, with every step I took, I noticed that there were fewer and fewer people present. 

Frowning, glancing at Amanda who was walking ahead of me, I asked 

"Are you sure we're going in the right direction?"

Staring at my surroundings, I couldn't help but think that we were headed in the wrong direction as everything around me started becoming dirtier and more worn out. Graffiti appeared all over the walls of the buildings next to me, and more and more litter could be found on the ground. 

This place seemed to resemble the slums rather than a high-end place that sold powerful artifacts. 

"mhm"

Without glancing at me, moving around some of the alleys, Amanda nodded her head.
