After coming out from the Golden Cloud Chamber of comrce, Orochi decided to return with the group to the inn in which they are staying.
After returning, Orochi started discussing the next series of plans with the group,
Alright, I think we should travel to the town of Chans as soon as possible.
Hearing this, June asked,
I know that you are very interested in attending auctions, but is there any need to take it so seriously? I an, this is just so weak country. What treasures are you expecting from such a remote place like the town of Chans?
Arlia also interjected,
Yes husband, I dont understand why you are so interested in auctions. Especially, in a weak country like this. Although, you are trying to find things that can aid you in increasing your strength, and I think that the things we have should be more than enough, right?
Hearing this, Orochi chuckled and shook his head. He took out a catalog and answered,
Look at this...
After he opened the catalog, he showed them a page,
Foundation Stabilizing Pill...
Arlia read what was written on the page, and showed a confused look.
But June who was beside Arlia had her eyebrows raised slightly.
Arlia then continued reading,
This pill can help one stabilize his/her cultivation and strengthen his/her foundation... thats it?
Then she asked Orochi,
Whats so special about this pill?
He answered,
Actually, I am worried that due to your fast increase in cultivation in the past few weeks, your foundation might be unstable. So, if you take this pill, then we can solve this issue. Or else, in the future this might lead to so serious problem in your cultivation if we choose to ignore it now.
So, I was looking for so solution to your problem, and when I randomly checked this catalog, I found this pill. And luckily, it is being auctioned by the Golden Clouds branch in the town of Chans, as it is their yearly auction which is two days later.
Similarly, there are other interesting things in the auction, and I want to buy them...
So, we need to hurry up and start right away, so that we can reach the town of Chans by tomorrow and get two rooms to stay for the night.
Hearing this, finally, Arlia and June nodded.
Seeing them agree, Orochi took out a map which he boug... got from Chand Roj, and he continued,
The town of Chans is more than 400 kiloters from here and even if we take a carriage then, it will take us more than 3 days to reach our destination. And if we rent so horses, it will still take more than a day for us to reach.
So, we have only two alternatives, either take special beasts which travel at fast speed or we travel on our legs to the town of Chans.
Hearing this both Arlia and June were startled and looked at Orochi weirdly.
Noticing their stares, Orochi continued
With our speed, I am sure that we can reach the town of Chans within half a day and the chances of finding a fast ride (beast), is very low. Not to ntion, if aunt June carries us, then we can reach our destination within 2-3 hours.
Hearing this, June snorted and replied coldly,
Dont depend on . Although I am here to protect you two, it doesnt an that I will help you guys. I will only take action when the situation is not sothing you guys can handle.
And even if I help you guys then I will be exposing my strength and other secrets. And who knows if there are any hidden dragons and crouching tigers, who are spending their retirent in such a low level place.
[Note: Here the term Hidden dragon and crouching tigers ans, people whose cultivation is very high, but they hide their abilities and try to remain low-key. So, June ans that she is worried that so powerful expert might be hiding his cultivation and spending his life hidden in this country.]
Hearing this, Orochi could only reply helplessly,
First, let us go and check where we can find fast rides. Then we will decide what to do next.
Arlia and June did not have any opinion and followed Orochis decision.
Before exiting the inn, Orochi went to the manager of the inn and recovered the advance rent that he paid for two rooms.

[Author: Miser!!!]
.
Then he asked few people about where he could find fast rides [horses or other modes of travel].
So, after obtaining directions, he took the group to the location.
After he enquired few things with the rchant, the rchant assured him,
Dear custor, please be rest assured. These Storm Horses travel at a very high speed. They can cross a distance of 70 to 80 kiloters within an hour. And if the horse is fed properly and let it rest at proper intervals, it can cross a distance of more than 500 kiloters in a single day. So, I can assure you that, you can reach the town of Chans as early as tomorrow.
Although this speed is very good from normal peoples perspective; but to Orochi, it is still very slow.
Orochi cannot be blad for this, because he can run at a speed of 60 ters per second.
So, it will take him less than 2 hours to reach his destination, but then he will be fully exhausted if he does so.
And he doesnt want to expose his abilities in front of others, especially June; so reluctantly, he can only rent these horses for now.
So, he paid a total of 100 gold coins as a deposit and rented two horses.
The cost for renting one horse is 5 gold coins per day, and the remaining 45 gold coins are for the security deposit.
If a custor rents a horse for 5 gold coins but does not show up, then the rchant will suffer a loss, so a deposit system has been established to prevent that.
So, after Orochi reaches his destination, he only has to return the horses to one of the rchant branches and he can get so of his money back.
And the reason he decided to rent only two horses and not three is that Arlia was scared of riding the horse, so she will be riding with Orochi on his horse.
Then the group set off for the town of Chans.
The Storm Horses, that they are riding are special breeds only found in the Windy country, so it is quite famous and it is also known for its speed.
Just the horses they are riding have reached the Beginning stage, so if they were of higher level, then Orochis group could travel at a much faster speed.
But raising them requires lots of money and these rchants will not spend it on horses, as in this line of business it is not guaranteed whether a custor will return the horse or not.
So, instead of wasting resources, they would simply buy more horses and expand their business.
They believe in quantity over quality.
.
The Windy country is actually a very small country with an area of about 2.4 million square kiloters.
.
[Author: Yeah, right. Were countries of this size considered small in your previous world?
Narrator: Shut the fusk up. I am comparing it with this worlds standard.
Author:
Narrator: So, where was I?... yeah right...]
.
So, just traveling to the town of Chans is like traveling through more than a quarter of the country.
So, between their travels, Orochis group stopped at an interval of 40-60 kiloters and rested for 2 hours, to be precise it was to let the horses rest properly.
After traveling for more than 250 kiloters it was already dark, so the group decided to spend the night in a town and set off early in the morning.
