Chapter 86: The Itinerant rchant
Yale followed the rchant youth until the latter decided to set a camp when the sky turned dark.
In the distance, Yale changed his clothes by ones more luxurious which he found in one of his spatial artifacts.
After waiting so ti, Yale asked Wyba to dissipate the Body Illusion and started to walk towards the camp.
“Who is there?”
The rchant stood up when he heard soone near his camp.
“I haven’t bad intentions. I only want to ask so questions.”
Yale wanted to avoid having any conflict with the rchant, Yale didn’t doubt that he would beat him in battle, but he wanted information and no beating others.
“Why asking ?”
The rchant didn’t detect any lie in Yale’s words.
“Because you are the first one I feel that will be able to reply to my questions.”
The rchant still didn’t sense any lie in Yale’s words, but he wouldn’t trust Yale with only those few words.
“Why do you approach soone you didn’t know to ask so questions? You should wait until going back with soone that has so relation to you.”
The conversation was going just to where Yale wanted.
“Because I have no other way. I know that I have planned to co here in the past, but I forget the reasons or where I am right now. She is the only one I know here.”
Yale pointed at Wyba who was on his head while saying his last words.
The rchant didn’t know how to reply as Yale’s words were all true, he even started to feel pity towards Yale as he was treating a beast as a person, the rchant thought that Yale had been alone for too much ti.
However, as a rchant, he wouldn’t say those words as they could offend the other party.
That was sothing important to rember while being an itinerant rchant; one should avoid offending others as they could be potential trade partners in the future. After all, making enemies wasn’t the best thod to increase his wealth.
Furthermore, he could sense that the other party was in the sa realm as him, as long as Yale had no bad intentions towards him, the rchant would also choose to avoid the conflict.
“You seem to be telling the truth. Given the situation, I understand why you are looking for so answers. Alright, for this ti I will answer for free, I will feel bad if I ask money for answering questions to soone with amnesia.”
Usually, as a rchant, he would charge with money or valuables for answering any questions others asked to him, but as he felt pity for Yale, he decided to do it for free. The rchant wanted to increase his wealth, but he wasn’t as desperate to use soone in Yale’s situation to that, he still had so morals.
“I can only make guesses about your reason to be here, but you are in the Zuatania Republic near Trade City, the best comrcial city of the republic. You really have forgotten even that?”
Yale nodded his head.
“I rember about Zuatania, but I didn’t rember anything about a Trade City. I also rember about a rchant association.”
The rchant laughed after hearing Yale’s words.
“I traveled a lot, but this is the first ti I find soone like you. You should look for a healer to treat your mory issues later, but it will be expensive, Trade City isn’t a place for poor people, and there isn’t any other place near when you can find a good healer.”
Yale rembered the people at the village; they indeed seed poor. Probably for them living in Trade City was a dream that would never co true without external help.
“I am not surprised that you rember about the rchant association. If my guesses are correct, your reason to be here is the sa as mine. It would be weird if you can forget about that as is sothing we bet our lives in.”
Yale was hearing the rchant with attention; the explanation was reaching the point he wanted to hear.
“Our republic has a serious lacking of good practicing thods, and obtaining a personal teacher is extrely expensive, only the extrely rich ones were able to reach the Rank 1, and that was only thanks to the Zuatania rchant Association! They have hired a lot of experts in different areas, as long as you have enough money to pay, you can learn anything, without them even with wealth it would be impossible to improve, and our republic would be dood to decline. The best part is that you even have chances of being employed by them after turning strong, that is my dream.”
The rchant guy seed excited saying those words; it was clear how important the rchant association was to him and probably to everyone who wanted to beco strong.
However, Yale suspected that the Zuatania rchant Association was the main reason for the lacking of practice thods and teachers because they monopolized them to obtain more wealth and power.
“However, the best isn’t the teachers, at our age even with them we wouldn’t be able to reach Rank 1 before sixteen.”
The rchant thought that Yale was of his sa age due to Yale’s external appearance and thus he thought both were in his sa situation.
“The rchant association is the only place in the whole continent that sell the Apprentice Pill! A miraculous pill capable of boosting the practice level of anyone who hasn’t reached the Rank 1!”
Yale wasn’t sure that the thing he wanted was that, he really needed to advance quickly, but he didn’t feel confident in pills as his Origin Qi was different from other sources of energy even if in the outside seed the sa.
However, as pills couldn’t be conserved for a long ti like weapons without losing efficiency, it made sense that such pill wasn’t stored into the special realm and his previous life planned a way to obtaining it afterward.
“I am working as an itinerant rchant to being able to buy one of those. My family used almost all our wealth to buy a spatial artifact giving the chance of comrce with the small villages of the grasslands. You should also be working to obtain an Apprentice Pill, that is the main reason people like us are here, in this grasslands.”
Yale felt envy of the rchant’s family; they sacrificed almost all their wealth to give him a chance. On the other hand, one of Yale’s two families ignored him while the other had a faction who wanted him dead due to his mother.
“I can’t say that it isn’t the reason, but I am not sure either. Anyway, thank you for the information.”
The rchant had explained a lot of details to Yale when even a short answer would have been enough, so Yale was thankful to him.
“I don’t know if you have enough money with you to pay it, but after I return to Trade City, I can guide you to a famous healer to try to recover your mories.”
Those words touched Yale; he didn’t expect that the other party would worry that much about him given that they had just t.
The truth was that the rchant felt that Yale’s situation was too pitiful and he also thought that he wouldn’t do it any better if he had lost his mories, so as long as it wasn’t a big effort, he chose to help him to find a good healer.
“Probably, finding a healer was a waste of ti, I doubt a healer would be able to help recover my mories.”
Yale didn’t want that the other party made the effort of looking for a healer for a task that Yale considered almost impossible.
“How can you be that sure? Have you asked so healer to try it before?”
The rchant didn’t understand why Yale was refusing to go to visit a healer.
“No, but I also know so healing magic, and my mories are not that easy to recover. I recovered a bit of my lost mory before, but I almost died in the process. I feel that recovering them isn’t only difficult but also dangerous, so I am alright without those mories for now.”
The rchant was shocked at Yale’s words because healers were also scarce in the Zuatania Republic. Even if Yale wasn’t extrely proficient in it, the chances of making a great profit from the villages were extrely high.
“Are you serious? You know healing magic?”
“Indeed. It isn’t my specialty, but I am able to use a bit of healing magic.”
The rchant thought a bit before continue speaking; he decided to make a bet.
“What do you think about traveling together? With your healing capabilities, you can make a lot of profit, but with you lack common knowledge due to your mory issue I doubt you will be able to do it alone. If we go together, we can gather enough money for buying two Apprentice Pills. This way you won’t need to worry about negotiating the fees, that is my specialty.”
Healing was one of the best professions in the Zuatania Republic; the only bad part is that not everyone can train such magic. After Yale said he could heal, the rchant decided to bet that together they would make more money than alone.
