==============================
Arrluk went unconscious the next second after that craving sound in his head.
It was only in the morning when Orlon shook his shoulders and called out his name, did Arrluk woke up from his deep sleep.
Orlon walked away when he saw that Arrluk was sitting up. The kids were getting ready to eat the leftover from last night to break their fast.
Arrluk scratched his head in confusion as if he looked around, feeling a little bit... different.
'What the...!' Arrluk rubbed his eyes because he saw things very clear... a little bit too clear.
Not only his eyesight but even his ears felt different. He could hear their neighbors talking to each other in a crystal clear voice.
Arrluk knew that only one thing could have changed his senses to such a degree, the Magic Awakening Potion.
"Boss! Come and eat, or someone else will take our place." Orlon called Arrluk once again.
Arrluk shook his head. He would check more about his changes when he is free. Now he needed to go quickly and sure their place before someone else does.
...
"Come on and play a game! Get a chance to double your money. Come on!" Orlon was trying to attract customers while Tom stood beside Arrluk, helping him explain the game's rules to every new customer. The other kids were on the lookout for Jeremy and his people or the guards hired by the magisters to keep the peace inside the city.
Fortunately, they have not seen a sign of Jeremy and his thugs for the past two days. It wasn't out of the ordinary since it happened quite a lot in the past. Sometimes, Jeremy would take his group on a mission outside the city or do some dirty work for the magisters that only their kind can do.
That day, Arrluk was able to earn three silver and a few copper coins. The kids were thrilled to earn so much in just one day. In fact, Arrluk already had two naked lady gold coins, four silver coins, and fifty copper coins in his pocket as he got them from Harold's purse.
Arrluk didn't know that Harold was so rich yesterday because how he was getting angry over losing some copper coins. After receiving Harold's memories, Arrluk knew why he was so rich.
Harold worked as a sell sail on different merchant ships that transport goods from one city to another.
Before their departure, Harold would pass on the information about the ship's pathway to the pirates of the Stepstones.
That is how Harold has been able to amass money by selling information about the ships he boards to the pirates who would block their way in the waters and demand toll fees from the merchants.
In fact, Harold had eighty-one gold naked lady gold coins stashed away in his home. Arrluk was making plans to visit Harold's empty house tonight and take them for himself since he can't let them go to waste.
After having dinner in their home, Arrluk excused himself by saying he was going out for a walk and would soon come back.
There was no moon tonight, but Arrluk could still see in the darkness quite clearly. After having his magic awakened yesterday night, Arrluk has been able to see farther than before and even in the dark like it was dusk.
Arrluk was making his way through alleys, dodging patrols, drunk sellswords, and a few thugs who were out for stealing from easy targets. His powerful hearing and vision have helped him manoeuvre around the city like a fish in the water.
After arriving at Harold's house, Arrluk fished out a key from Harold's purse to unlock the door.
Kacha!
Arrluk quickly entered and locked the door behind him with a latch. Harold's house wasn't anything spectacular. There were only three rooms. One was a kitchen, a hall and the last was a small bedroom. There was one other room, a privy, or a toilet in one corner of the house. That was his destination.
Arrluk opened the door only to get his nose assailed by a disgusting smell. One other thing that changed aside from his vision and hearing was his nose. It was like he has the nose of a dog or a wolf now. Arrluk almost puked whatever he has eaten tonight.
"Dammit! I need to control my magic properly, or else I would just die from smelling all the shit in this city." Arrluk closed his eyes and tried the block the flow of mana to his nose.
The magic was the cause of the heightening of his senses; therefore, Arrluk could lessen away his smelling sensations if he could better control the small amount of mana flowing in his body.
There was much to learn about his newfound power but now was not the time. Arrluk pinched his nose and entered the privy. He looked for the third brick at the height of his chest and to his right side.
"There it is!" Arrluk found the loose brick and quickly removed it from the wall.
There was a small bag placed just behind the brick which Arrluk took out. After coming to the hall, Arrluk checked the contents of the bag and immediately became excited.
He was rich. Super rich if compares to the ordinary household of this world. He could buy a few acres of land or a right house inside the city.
Harold saved his money to purchase a ship to start his own trading, most likely a galley, since ocean-going large vessels such as carracks or swan ships are too expensive.
"Harold, thank you for giving me your wealth. I will complete your dream by purchasing a ship as you had wanted. In fact, I will name my first ship after your surname, Seacrab." Arrluk was an adventurer. He wanted to roam the world of Planetos now that he has come here.
He wanted to visit Bravos, Iben, Yiti, Westeros, Asshai, and other exotic cities. He wanted to see the man do wonders worldwide like the titan of Bravos, the wall, Citadel, and old castles like Winterfell, Highgarden, Kingslanding, Dragonstone, and if possible explore the city of Doom, Valyria.
And to do that without any hindrance, Arrluk would need a ship and capable men to operate it. To obtain men and an able ship, Arrluk would need money, lots of it.
