"The city guards, that’s not good, right?" Safa asked.
Seeing how advanced and different everything was in Alterian so far, she had no idea just how powerful these city guards would be.
If they were ant to keep the peace in a world filled with magic, they had to have so type of power.
"Hey, Raze, can’t you do sothing? I an, if you were in Pagna right now you could just say your na, or they would even give you the whole al for free. Can’t you do sothing in this world?" Liam asked.
Raze didn’t say anything. Because even though his na was infamous in Alterian, it was good rather than bad, and just based on looks alone they wouldn’t believe him either way.
"It’s okay, there is always another solution," Da said, raising his fists.
"That won’t work," Raze answered. "If we fight here, we’ll be wanted all across the land, and we won’t be able to walk. The best solution is not to solve this one with our fists."
"Hey!" Liam shouted. "Don’t you know who this guy is, he’s the Dar, "
Before Liam could finish his sentence, Aurora kicked his shin from behind and then placed her hand over his mouth.
"Ignore my friend here, he’s just tense about the situation. Is there anything we can do at all, any other way we can pay you?" Aurora asked.
"I don’t want any money from you scamrs. For not a single one of you to bring any type of device on you to pay, ant that you ca in here with no intention to pay in the first place!" the manager shouted. "Look at how so of you are dressed, are you all underground dwellers? It’s no wonder!"
Raze then stepped forward, moving past Aurora. Those words had gotten to him a little, for he was an underground dweller, that was where his family began, and where they lived.
The dark side of Alterian that was rarely shown to those on the surface, and for the people that used those words, it was how they insulted the others.
Raze then placed out his hand fast. So fast it had jolted the manager back.
"I am a new mage who has just co to the city. Due to circumstances I was ant to treat all of these people here, but I ended up forgetting a number of things." Raze then opened the palm of his hand. "In my hand I have a power stone. It should be more than enough to cover the al."
The bright power stone could be seen in Raze’s hand. It had to be around a level 4 stone.
At this stage for Raze, it was quite useless, but it was sothing that could be sold for a large sum in Pagna and Alterian, and everyone knew this.
However, the manager looked at the stone, and then with a hand, slapped it away. As it left Raze’s hand, Beatrix managed to quickly catch it in the air with her fast reflexes.
The manager had blinked a few tis, as he had never seen soone move their arm that fast, and he thought he must have seen things.
However, due to the commotion, quite a few people were looking from their tables and seats at what was happening.
And they had witnessed the fast reflex from Beatrix. She had reached her hand out on instinct.
"Was that so type of magic?"
"No, I think she just moved her hand. Maybe an enchantnt she’s using."
"Are they mages then? But if they were, why would they have trouble paying?"
Seeing how the power stone was slapped out of Raze’s hand, Da had decided to move in closer.
"I’m just making sure Raze isn’t the one that snaps here," Da said. "After all, he said it would be bad news if we were to do anything right now."
"Get that fake power stone out of here. If you had the type of money to buy the real thing, then you wouldn’t be in this situation in the first place!" the manager shouted. "All of you are trying to make a fool out of . Wait right here until the police arrive."
Aurora was getting more nervous by the second.
"It’s okay. We can talk the situation out, right? I’m sure these police will be reasonable people as well," Safa said with a soft smile. "This is just a simple mistake."
Aurora was hoping that would be the case because if not...
"Raze, none of the others are registered, and if the police take us in, they’ll find out," Aurora whispered.
Not being registered ant not being in the Alterian system. Which also ant that they would be treated as underdwellers and sent back down to the ground.
Not that underdwellers couldn’t co up, Raze did, and changed his life due to the magic he had, but when they did, they would be shoved back down fairly quickly.
"Not just that, but if they run and see I am registered, it’s just going to bring trouble for everyone who’s here," she said, worried.
Raze let out a big sigh, as he was racking his head about what he was going to do. What he could do.
Smooth talking to people wasn’t his forte, that was for sure, and with the others around them being suspicious, it wasn’t going to be good either.
Just then the door opened, and several n in uniforms wearing black and white blazers had walked in.
By their sides they had crafted items. These were the police force of Alterian.
"All right, we have co here due to a disturbance. So will soone explain what is going on?" the policeman asked.
