Chapitre 42: A Shocking Discovery...
Barton's Mage Tower...
"Lord Barton, may I ask what you need from me?" Jay asked Barton while Nuggets was sleeping peacefully in his arms.
"Well, you see, it's about that golden chicken of yours." Barton then told Jay everything that happened with him and Nuggets, from how he discovered Nuggets' bloodline and how he got an item out from Nuggets' body.
Then after Barton told Jay all that, he began to act more serious and said "As for the item that I got, do you know what it is?"
Jay felt that Barton was acting a bit strange. So even if he knew that it is just a fragment of 'Leah's Dagger' which Nuggets ate, he shook his head to pretend he does not know.
Barton then started talking like a madman.
"That was a piece of an Elven Dagger. To be more precise, an Elven dagger that was forged before the Warring States Era!"
Jay was shocked from what Barton told him since most of the stuff before the Warring States Era had a very high rating ranging from Rare to Epic and can be sold at a very high price of 30 Gold. Some are even Cursed or Blessed.
Then Barton continued speaking "If I am correct.." He then took the dagger fragment out of his pocket and continued "Look closely at the intricate runes engraved on it."
Jay became curious so he just did what Barton said. But unconsciously, while Jay was looking at the engraved runes, he started to speak in a foreign language: "El spera meta el qualia."
Barton looked at Jay as if he was some kind of monster as Jay read the engraved runes and said "How... How do you know the Elvish Language,,, Who are you?"
But to Jay, what he was doing was just normal since he already played Dungeon and Towers of Fate for 10 years before getting reincarnated so he already had a pretty decent knowledge about runes and stuff.
When he heard what Barton said, he immediately remembered that he did something strange so he immediately said "No need to panic my lord. I just learned a few words from ancient books. Hahaha..."
Then Barton replied "I guess it makes sense now. Then, can you translate what you have just read a while ago in our common tongue?"
Jay held nothing back when he told Barton what the engraved runes meant. "This blade...Blood Moon. My lord, I think the whole dagger is required for the whole message. Can I have it back now then? It belongs to me anyways..."
When Barton heard the meaning of the runes, he then passed over the dagger fragment to Jay and said: "It looks like I was worried for nothing. Well, here you go then. And, a little gift..."
Barton then took out something else from his pocket and gave it to Jay together with the dagger fragment.
[Jay received Leah's Dagger (Fragment)]
[Jay received 5x {Sparkybean (Food Item/Rare)
- When consumed, player gains 80% lightning resistance and 100% movement speed. Lasts for 20 seconds.}]
"Make sure to feed the beans to Nuggets." Barton then turned around and took out a book before he said "You may leave now."
Jay then left the mage tower...
"Nice! I can now go back to Goodboy's Blacksmith shop and repair my dagger. But I should probably eat first and feed Nuggets." Jay excitedly said as he walked towards Drunken Rooster Inn.
Drunken Rooster Inn...
"Salador! A piece of bread and Honey Lime Juice. As for this guy, feed him with whatever's available."
Jay shouted as he entered the inn.
Due to the lively ambience of the inn, Nuggets woke up from his lovely sleep.
Bawk Bawk!
When the people in the inn saw Nuggets, they immediately tried to make friends with Jay since they had a weird plot in mind.
"Hey kid. Nice harvest you got there! Do you want to come to my room later while we enjoy some chicken and wine?" A voluptuous looking lady said to Jay while trying to seduce him.
"F*** off lady! Hey kid, I am the best Chef there is in town. Just give me 10 copper coins and I will make the best tasting chicken you will ever taste."
When Nuggets and Jay heard these people, Jay took out his Flintlock Pistol and fired it at the inn's door. As for Nuggets, he was 'bawking' crazily.
Bawk Bawk Bawk Bawk!!!
Bawk Bawk!!
"Listen up you lot! This guy here is not dinner, if you fail to comply, I will blast you the same way I blasted the door." Jay shouted furiously and went towards the bar counter for his meal.
Everyone was afraid from Jay's threat and they all just decided to forget about it and mind their own business.
Bawk Bawk!!!
Salador then offered Jay's meal and apologized for the crowds' actions. He also took out some chicken feed from somewhere behind the bar counter and placed it in front of Nuggets.
He then spoke "Young master, may I ask what is your relationship with this golden chicken of yours. It is as if both of you are family or something."
Jay then replied "It's nothing much. Nuggets' here is my companion."
After that small chat with Salador and after eating, Jay then took out the 5 Sparkybeans he got from Barton and gave it to Nuggets.
"Eat up little buddy."
Bawk Bawk!!!
While he waited for Nuggets to eat, Jay started to reminisce about how he first encountered Nuggets and the many times Nuggets died. For some reason, he started to cry and said softly while patting Nuggets and unconsciously used Bestial Language.
"I'm sorry for letting you die before. But now, I promise to keep you safe as long as you promise not to run off to your death anymore."
When everyone in the inn heard Jay speaking, they thought another chicken entered the inn. So they looked for it and discovered that the one speaking the 'chicken language' was actually Jay.
Everyone had one thought in mind. "What the f***???"
When Jay realized what he did, he immediately grabbed Nuggets as he ran towards his room.
"Why...why did bestial language had to be a passive skill..."
While Jay was rushing to his room to hide from embarrassment, he then heard a ladylike voice of a child speaking to him.
"I promise..."
Jay almost tripped from the stairs when he heard the voice. He then looked at Nuggets who was busy eating the Sparkybeans in his arms.
"Wait WHAT!!! Nuggets, you're a female chicken?"
Nuggets then tilted her head as if she was mocking Jay and said:
"Of course I am! It's your fault for mistaking me for a rooster. Can't you see how pretty my golden wings are?"
Jay stopped talking and just went to his room since he does not know what's happening in this world anymore.
Jay then tried to make his worries go away by sleeping. As for Nuggets, she just continued eating her Sparkybeans.
