"Big!"
Cedeit couldn't help but shout inside Cesar's head as the City of Lights was indeed big, much bigger than any cities they've passed through. It was even bigger than City of Wheels.
But that is much expected since the City of Lights is one of the famous and strongest Capital of humanity. It's a bastion, a stronghold, and a beacon of hope all in all.
Before coming here, Cesar already did his research regarding the city and it is one of the most prominent Capital there is to humanity. From what he gathered, there are only a dozen capitals spread around the world where it is the most secure and where the popularity of humans strives.
"Human! Explore it!"
Cedeit who seed very excited about this venture was very to do so adventure. Since Cesar really had no choice but to enter this crowded area, he soon fall in line to the tight security of its gates.
After sight-seeing the shops outside of the city gates, hoping to find so items that would suit him, Cesar imdiately changed the direction of his thinking since there really weren't any. There was no Moren Shop or anything of quality equipnt that piqued his interest.
Hence right after being strictly checked by the guards after showing them the Librarian's Key and Flexible Dagger, Cesar watched the busier crowds' get rowdier and full. Even with that being the case, one will not think that it was annoying as officials from this city are supervising matters regarding these small problems.
But his expression gradually changed upon noticing a poster stuck on an electrical post that he happened to pass by. There was an announcent of 'awarding' that will take place in this city soon.
Cesar's na, title as a hero, and his background laid bare right in his front that his mouth turned agape.
"They're definitely talking about you. Cesar Sparrow, The Freak of the Academy and Hero of Wheels. Without the sacrifice of this hero, the others wouldn't have been able to leave the Mansion. However, this Hero ca back from the dead. A year later, he ca back strong and alive… huh. Very human-like description,"
Cedeit didn't seem to be very amused based on the tone he used on reading the description but that could also be said to Cesar, who was reading it with a frown.
"I'll just get out of here…"
Muttering under his breath while hearing Cedeit letting out a snicker, Cesar traveled through the busy streets and went to different shops he could see. At first, he was left disappointed since nothing was within his expected weaponry.
Yet this soon stopped upon being able to spot a familiar na of the shop from across the street.
[Langston Inventories]
Seeing the guard that surrounded the area, Cesar didn't wait any longer and entered the establishnt and couldn't help but be blown away by the bunch of weapons that were decorated like an antique for all people to see.
'Sweet items…'
And finally, he was able to spot a weapon to his liking.
"Are you interested in buying?"
Tugging his robe closer to his face, Cesar nodded as he answered the clerk who approached him, "May I know who created this fancy-looking jade dagger?"
The clerk chuckled before answering, "Well, this jade dagger is made by no other than the rising star of builders, Han Langston. Under his care guidance and work effort to make the best products possible, he was able to create a variety of weapons that has been widely spread and used by the people,"
"Woah…"
Cesar nodded once before asking the price, "How much is it?"
The clerk began telling him the numbers, "Forty Thousand Vennon Cash. We can proceed with the transaction right now if you're willing to buy it right away,"
Since he was really in need of a weapon to use and the jade blade looked very good for him, Cesar didn't hesitate to shake the hands of the clerk.
"Please wait in the custor room. We're going to hand over the dagger to you. You should prepare your paynt in advance,"
Cesar imdiately followed the clerk that led him to this said room. Seeing the clerk walking away to grab his weapon, he asked Cedeit if the room didn't have any hidden wires of cara to spy on him.
Fortunately, there weren't hidden accessories laid out as pulling out the briefcase of his money with paynt inside of it be hard without the curious gaze of the room had stored for him.
He was done pulling it out after a few seconds interval of inserting the key and grabbing the briefcase out of the storage room. Counting the Vennon Cash and putting it at the available table, Cesar threw the briefcase inside the storage before the cracked reality disappeared.
A few minutes later, the clerk was bringing a tal case inside the room with two guards observing the situation.
Laying the briefcase down to the table, the clerk opened the locks before presenting the jade dagger to Cesar with an available scabbard and sheath.
"You can count the money if you want,"
The clerk did as to what Cesar told him while Cesar himself began inspecting the dagger.
Feeling the intense work that Han had put in the dagger, Cesar waved it around and almost spooked the guards inside the room before finally being satisfied with the purchase.
"Are we done?"
The clerk gestured for the guards to co to the table to retrieve the money before clasping his hand to answer Cesar, "Surely Mr. Custor. Thank you for buying at the Langston Inventories,"
Cesar nodded once before leaving the room while thinking that the clerk or the guards might pull so tricks behind his back but that suspicion never ca true.
Leaving the enterprise with a grin on his face, Cesar slowly walked forward with a destination in mind to look for other weapons to his liking.
"Ow!"
Suddenly bumping into soone in the busy street, Cesar couldn't help but violently shift his gaze at the perpetrator and clicked his tongue.
"I'm sorry—"
Suddenly, this woman locked her gaze at Cesar, whose eyes slowly widened.
"Cesar?"
Cesar who still couldn't hide his shock, contemplated for a brief mont before greeting with an amiable smile, "Reyna. How are you doing?"
