The duo of older n quickly stated that 500 gold was far too much, and they only needed about 50 gold to get him the best of the best in all aspects, a price which Darius paid upfront.
Darius was quite happy about that as well, since he did not in fact have 500 gold as he had claid. On the day before the four of them had set out, he had told Foldo to hand him so spending money.
The bandit boss had handed him a bag with around 100 gold coins, apologizing that he did not have more liquid funds while Darius himself had already nearly spent all the coins he transmuted.
Now, he was down to 8, although he could always transmute so more if he really needed to. However, he had already gotten everything he needed in his opinion, so he would refrain from doing so for the ti being.
Darius thanked the old Land's Commissioner and left the establishnt with Shanks and co after Bistro assured him that everything would be completed in the span of one month.
Satisfied with everything so far, the group returned to The Great Escape Inn. Darius made sure to thank Shanks and Derek for their kindness, which the duo shrugged off saying that it was the least they could do.
Darius and Gunner watched as Shanks and his son mounted their horse-drawn carriage and left the inn. Darius noted that while Derek still had so small doubts about his person, he had obviously lost the zeal to investigate further.
The old soul, therefore, decided to forget about the matter as it made little sense to Derek in the end. As such, Darius decided to let the lad go.
Should anything change, he could always use Foldo and the lackeys of the power the fellow would create to get rid of him anyway.
The journey to all his new properties had taken more than a few hours and it was currently early afternoon.
Darius turned to Gunner. "Let's go in and have so lunch before we head to the Adventurers Guild, eh?"
Gunner grinned widely at the thought of a hearty lunch before a possible battle, so he nodded. The duo entered the establishnts and ignored the large crowd, heading to their suite table.
Unlike breakfast, Darius saw that so of the other suite room tables were filled with their respective tenants who were all well-dressed n and won, sotis with young children too.
Darius and Gunner stood out due to their size difference and ages, so when they sat at their table, a server quickly rushed over to them. "Good Sirs, how may I help you?"
Darius smiled and inquired: "What do you offer for lunch?"
The server took out a nu and placed it before Darius and Gunner humbly. "Please have a look, Good Sirs."
Darius observed the nu and found so familiar dishes from Earth and so new ones that seed unique, especially als made from monster ats and parts hunted from the dungeon.
Curious, Darius asked. "Which als on this list are part of the suite benefits?"
The sever bowed and quickly replied: "Everything, sir. You can have one free serving of anything."
Darius nodded, pleased with the service. "Then I'll have one serving of fried rice and hellchicken with vital veggies."
"As for my compatriot, he'll have multiple servings of many different als. Don't worry, I'll pay for them out of pocket minus the first one." Darius added slowly.
The server took Darius' order and then Gunner's, rushing off to get it done. The rest of the custors here soon paid attention to their own business after ogling the duo for a bit.
However, their attention was forcibly recaptured once they saw the amount of food Gunner consud in one sitting. It was a fact that these people had their mind's blown and their horizons expanded by the sight they got to witness.
Darius was used to this, and so he just paid for Gunner's extras and left the inn with the Branded Servant in tow. Darius had to admit, that the al had truly been exemplary, far better than anything he had eaten on Earth.
He had no idea what a hellchicken was, but its at had tasted a lot like normal chicken, only spicier. The vital veggies turned out to be a specialty of Listo, exclusive to the Wood elent dungeon nearby.
Apparently, there were monster cabbages and vegetables of all kinds that when killed, were sold to the inn for processing. Darius himself noted that these vegetables contained a lot of energy.
In fact, based on his research on Faust's power system, consuming monster parts from dungeons seed to be a way for natives of this world to increase their stats after they had sparked or awakened. Darius and Gunner did not enjoy this benefit for obvious reasons, but the taste was still good.
Darius navigated the streets with Gunner as they reached a large building near the southern part of the town, where the various guilds were located, as well as the entrance to the dungeon.
The Adventurers Guild was also a building with age, but its maintenance was not as perfect as the governntal ones. Darius noted that there were cracks and chipped paint in a few places, but decided not to bother himself with this.
Upon entry, the duo were greeted with a large hall that was far more crowded and busier than anything they had seen from the Land's Commission or The Great Escape inn.
n and won of various ages in leather, plate or hide armor and weapons strapped to their waists, backs or even fronts stood before many different screens on the walls which displayed information.
Darius only peeked at the screens for a short while before he and Gunner crossed through the hall to reach one of the counters. Because of his height and his attire, Darius stood out and attracted attention, many adventurers wondering what a noble scion was doing here.
Upon reaching a counter, the person seated behind it boredly glanced at Darius and seed unbothered by his position, only asking: "How can I help you?"
Not bothered by the lethargy displayed, Darius folded his arms and inquired: "I have an interest in becoming an adventurer, but I'd first like to know what requirents there are for registration, what duties I would be expected to fulfill, and what benefits or privileges would be granted to ."
Hearing his demanding tone, the worker seed to realize that they were dealing with soone of importance and straightened up significantly.
"Well Sir, that depends. Are you planning to register on your own, or will you register with the fellow behind you?"
Darius turned to Gunner who nodded. "I would say so, yes."
The fellow behind the counter then smiled and began explaining.
