". . ." Did you just insult ?
Oh . . . right . . . I grumbled under my breath.
So for the rest of my journey here, besides fighting monsters, looking for my family, and surviving each day, I also had to be wary of the inhabitants of this world?
I felt like the system wasn't a cheat but a curse.
Welp. No use in lanting about it. I should be glad that the village chief even gave a quest for the letter and didn't kick to my death.
I wonder if my relationship level with him would increase if I finish the quest?
I thanked the village chief which he replied with a humph and a snob.
Now that it was out of the way, I planned to go to the inn and fill my stomach first before heading out to the forest.
I was getting hungry, and I needed fuel for the fight.
Inside the shaky inn with only thin timbers as a support, I noticed that not many Halflings were dining. There were a lot of players like myself who had sour and pensive faces.
Was the food that horrible?
"What do you want?" said a big woman whose half body was that of a cow while her chubby face had a large mole near her thin lips. She was holding a big spoon like she was going to hit soone with it.
I backed away a little. She was huge and intimidating, and I had to cough to get the lamp out of my throat.
"Uhm . . . I'd like to see your nu please."
She squinted her eyes, and it took everything I had not to stare at the large hairy mole on her face.
"Food's there." She banged her spoon against a wooden board that displayed the list of food and their corresponding prices.
My mouth dropped at the price. Why was everything expensive? I only have 100 gil with , and a simple bread with bacon and egg already cost 500 gil?
Is it a scam?
"Well? What do you want?" the woman growled in impatience.
I was too intimidated and stuttered. "W-water?"
She rose an eyebrow. "That will cost you a 100 gil."
". . ." Yep. It was definitely a scam.
Before I could say never mind, she poured water on a 2oz glass and twirled it with her finger before she gave it to .
"100 gil."
. . . At least she didn't spit on it.
"Uhm . . ."
"What?! I'm busy!"
You're literally just standing there and glaring at .
"How much for a night in your cheapest room?"
"1000 gil."
My shoulders slumped as I went to a table with my glass of water. My head was a ss. Just like that, my 100 gil was gone after buying water that should have been free!
What's wrong with this world? I didn't know about the value of money, but why was everything expensive? I was expecting 5 gil a night or 10 gil a al.
No wonder the other's faces looked constipated.
Or was it just this village?
I ignored it and contemplated my next move. I guess having food and a place to rest in this village was impossible now. Not to ntion the food, but the cost of staying here was also astronomical.
Then my only option was to either grind for drops of gil to save for that 1000 gil or sleep in the forest.
". . ."
I better start grinding now.
