Chapter 72: The journey to Zenith city X
I listen to the announcent go off, looks like the kingdom of Alsoma has fallen, all the starting cities in that area are now unusable. The populations of other starter cities will rise, and all the people who haven't left the starting cities in Alsoma will be transported to a new random starting city till they can leave it. The armies of our adversaries are going to cause hell for awhile, I know I wont be strong enough to stop the army by myself and the best of the best players are only around level 35 right now. When the players begin to reach level 50 and do their tier up quests many will probably join the war, after they do their mana aura quests of course. So for now the NPC's are on their own, and I'm sure a lot of powerful NPC's will becoming out of the shadows to make sure the humanoid race doesn't die.
I wouldn't be surprised if Wilr is already working on plans of his own, he is the leading magic user on defense magic. Many kingdoms will be seeking him out and offering huge rewards for his help. I have an idea of what I might be able to do to end this war, but I'll need Fenrir's help. A simple idea really, but I should sit and contemplate on it. In the an ti I'm going to have to focus on other things, like getting to the front of this line. I don't know how much longer everyone is going to wait for , if only I could get to the front of this line faster. I look at the clock they have on the way and see that 30 minutes have passed and this line as barely moved.
Being in a society has many disadvantages, one of them being lines. I cant complain to much, I have a lot of great things going for . I'll sound like a spoiled child if I have all these great things and I complain about a line, and I don't want to be that person. I should be getting a turn soon, so maybe I should think about sothing else. "You know, with your height I bet I wouldn't have any problems with the quest I'm on." I suddenly hear a famine voice speak to , I turn around to the voice and see no one. I look down and see a very short girl, she is shorter than my mom. She must be an extrovert starting up a conversation with a random person. I squint at her and she rolls her eyes in annoyance. "Play along if you want this line to disappear." She whispers her reasoning to , I think I get the plan. She must want to talk about sothing that will get people to leave the bank.
I nod my head slightly and cross my arms. "What kind of quest are you on? I doubt there is a quest that requires height." I might as well make it believable to the people listening, she doesn't like my improvised thoughts. She goes on to explain in a dium to loud voice her quest is one anyone can finish with a huge reward, but since she is so short she cant climb the mountain the quest is located. She explains the terrain is to rough for her and that she had to abandon the quest, she made it sound convincing enough. At least to my standards, soon many of the players dart out of the bank and the line disappears.
Many of these players must be new if they believed that pile of crap, I turn around without saying another word. "Hey! You could at least say thanks!" I ignore her and walk up to the teller, she goes to a new teller booth that opened up. I look at the male at the booth I'm at and he just sighs, must be because of my treatnt towards her. She benefited just as much as I did, so I see no reason to talk further. Its dangerous getting involved with people who trick like that, even if its to get to the front of a line.
I take a sigh and think maybe I was a little rude, no point saying anything now. "I'm here to collect funds from a shop I have. Accounts na is Slayer Zern." The man goes into the back and does his business. In the anti said girl looks over at with the news of owning a shop. I can already tell what's about to happen, she is about to speak to . Instead of letting her speak I give an answer fast. "No, I'm not adding you to my friends list. No, I don't own a shop. Yes, you miss heard . Now go back to minding your business and I'll mind mine." I don't feel bad for being rude earlier anymore, its obvious what she was going to ask.
I look in her direction as the man is still gone and I see disbelief on her face. I guess she isn't used to being treated like this, most n would do anything for a pretty gar girl. I'm not one of those n, I couldn't care any less than I do now about them. If I wanted to hang out with a gar girl in ga I would, I will not stoop to the level of worshipping them. I believe n should be more sophisticated than that. "You are one of the anest people I have ever t! Why would you treat a beautiful young woman like that! Did your mother not teach you how to treat a woman!" This noisy girl is getting on my nerves, I just sigh and ignore her again. That seems to make her mad even more, I guess she is one of those that want a reaction.
Soon my teller cos back with 2 heavy sacks of gold. "You have 88 gold pieces ready to take, let know if there is anything else you need help with." I take the sacks of gold and place them in my player inventory. "Please feel free to bring your requests back!" I walk off as the teller tries to retain a wealthy custor in , no sense in staying here any longer. Ti to go et up with my family, however as I'm about to leave I'm stopped by the sa annoying girl holding by my left arm. If this wasn't a city I would end her right now, to bad the guards will throw in jail till she respawns and gets her stuff back.
I look her dead in the eye with anger, she quickly lets go and composes herself. "I wont let you leave till you apologize to . You are obviously much higher level than I am and if you don't want to apologize then help with sothing." I turn around and leave, this type of person is the most troubleso. They bring nothing other than headaches and problems. "If I ever get strong enough to beat you up, you can be sure I'll puml you!" I make my way to the area that has the cheapest things for sale, this is where most new players hang out. The rest of my family is sure to be here.
After I walk around for a little while I notice the familiar face of my sister, at least I found one of them. "Hey sis, seems like I found you." She jumps in surprise since she was window shopping so fancy clothes that you see noble won wear. She turns around and gives an annoyed look, always the jumpy one. "Didn't an to scare you. Where is everyone else?" She takes her attention off of the dresses in the windows and turns to .
I think she is still upset with about giving her a spook. "They are at the local blacksmith looking at prices. I ca here because there is no way we can afford that gear with our asly funds, it feels just like when we were poor." I guess that would be a feeling that cos back, being poor becos sour once you experience being rich. I'm glad that they are looking at the most important things in cities. "C'mon, I was done here anyway. I can show you around town on our way to them." I can't rember the last ti I got to do sothing like this with Hailey.
I hold out my elbow in a gesture for her to grab it, I don't want any horny n thinking they can just talk to my sister. "I think that's a great idea Hailey." She grabs my elbow and holds it with a smile. "Don't worry, I'll keep the fugly ones away." I say this in a joking tone and it works rather well, my sister laughs a good amount. We soon travel around the city on our way to the blacksmith to et up with the other 3 mbers of our family, I'm happy that Hailey is having fun. To bad I wont be able to stay with them while they go on there own adventures, if I know Hailey she will eventually split up from mom and dad to do her own thing. That will only leave Marcus for my mom and dad to care for, and knowing her she will do it soon.
