章 4: Clover Town
He rode fast on Windrunner, treading on grassland. Wind gushing in his face as he treks on his of either one of the towns in the center of Fiore. Going to the nearest town would be the best thing to do like buying armors, weapons, items, and many more as well as guild quests.
On his way to the nearest town, Clover Town, he can see the mountains around it as he follows the river. The good thing in following the river is, for him or his horse to rest, may not be the case but, it was still smart move to do.
He was at least, 200km+far from the forest to Clover Town plus he needed to get around the mountains if there are any in his way. Riding at a speed of 60km/p, he can least avoid the exhaustion of his horse to stop with only 3 and a half hours of trekking.
At last, he has arrived in front of the town and whispered to himself, "It doesn't look big unless you see it yourself, huh?"
The people were startled, as they saw a young man riding his horse. They thought he is one of the dark guild members, but none of them did even attacked a town with a guild on it. Good thing, Kai was not paying attention and only entered a shop after he got down and placed his horse right in front of the shop.
"Hey, what do you want?" the shop owner was talking to him coldly with a cold stare.
"Do you have any weapons made of steel?" he asked. Good thing, he removed his magical choker in order to get into the business.
"What type of weapon that made of steel?" the old man grunted as he asked.
"How about, a shield?" he nonchalantly said and smirked.
"Shield is not even a weapon unless it was used as a weapon, eh?" he stopped, then a moment later, "Hahahaha, you've got a good joke kid. Now, which weapon do you like?"
"I'm not joking, and I'm not joking," he said with an intimidating cold stare locked in place, at the old man.
"Alright, alright! Here's the shield, only 500 jewels," he said as he was reaching his hands in front of Kai, begging for money. Sadly, he has no money.
"I have no money to buy that, sorry."
"What?! You've got the guts to come here without even money?" the man said furiously at the young man standing in front of him inside his shop.
Kai took the shield and said, "I'll be borrowing this, for now, I have no money to pay you." with a deadly cold stare.
"You..." the man sighed and said, "Just... make sure you'll pay me twice. I'll give you a whole month."
"Well, how about weretiger's claws and skin?" he asked since he has those things with him.
He used his Requip magic to store these items while also experimenting, thinking it was the same as a dimension to other places. However, he was only able to store items and nothing more.
Kai handed over the skin and claws of the weretiger then he asked, "Hey, do you eat weretiger's meat?"
"What!?" hearing him saying weird things he said, "Weretiger's meat, skin, and claws... did you eat a weretiger?!" said the man with a stiff and obvious scared expression on his face.
"I'm leaving," he said and immediately exits the shop.
In front of the shop, curious citizens are looking at him. They heard all the screaming of the owner of the shop. The people are looking at him, while does not care that much unless they requested from the guild that he was wanted, dead or alive.
He untied his horse to go somewhere, heading towards the guild. Some people are following him for an unknown reason for him. So, in order to lose them, he turned on every time and he disappears in their sight. He left his horse and wear his choker. As he reached the guild, a random Guild, he immediately walked and stopped in front of the request board. While he's searching for quests, he was approached by a middle-aged man who looks like already matured.
"Hey kid, what are you doing here?" the man asked.
And answered by Kai, "I am going to take a request, can I have an advice?"
"Well, I suggest you start at D-rank missions." he pulled one of the requests and he said, "Here, this one is easy enough for you plus it has a quite high reward than normal, sure it would be a good one."
"Thanks for the advice, Mister" and he immediately ran off.
Few moments, after he took one of the quests, a window-like transparent board same like the one that teaches him ninjutsu, however, it was small. It displays the mission itself, which is good to keep himself on track of what mission or what he needed to do. The mission was, only to deliver a parcel to the owner of an item shop in the nearby town, Oshibana.
On his way, people looked confused when they saw him as a small kid but never thought that he was the kid they see now in front of them.
Kai said in his mind, "Good thing, they didn't find out, or they'll hunt me for no reason at all."
Going at the item shop with the mission, as the requester was the owner of the shop himself. Picking it up, however, it is big, so he needed something to use to carry it and also keep it safe.
He then gone to the train station, bought a ticket, rode it while people looking at him for no reason at all, again. Inside the train, a boy and a girl approached him. The kids tried to talk to him, but he is more like to listen than to talk a lot. The three of them enjoyed talking with each other with Kai not talking too much.
The train has stopped, some passengers are now going to the place where they need to go, including him.
