Evan was fully equipped and ready for battle. He had first class weapons and incredible quality armor. Potions and spells would help him fight a long battle and deal with unexpected situations. But, given the special skill of the armor, Evan decided he would need sothing else.
"Virion, I need sothing that can restore my blood quickly. Do you have anything in mind?" Asked Evan.
Virion nodded, "Sure, there are plenty of potions here that drinking them will restore your blood supply. But, I need to know what type of blood you have, otherwise, it won't work."
"And how will you know that?" Evan asked.
Virion smiled as he walked over to Evan and made a cut on his arm with a slight movent of his hand. Virion caught the falling drop of blood with his finger and tasted it, "Good, your blood isn't particularly rare.. We have plenty of suitable potions."
They headed into the room, where many different potions were designed to restore blood supplies in ergencies. Virion walked over to the counter and threw three small potions in Evan's direction.
"That's enough for you for a long ti. That's it, that's the end of the preparation. I can't give you anything else. I'm sure this will be more than enough." Said Virion.
Evan nodded.
...
The Azure Bridge reconnaissance team should arrive at the village in about fifteen hours. Evan decided not to delay and headed straight to the village. Evan didn't want the Azure Bridge group to arrive before the appointed ti suddenly, and he would be at a disadvantage.
The village was called - Arker. It was located a few kiloters from Darkfil. The most ordinary people inhabited it. Those mages who appeared among the people of that village had long ago left it for the big cities to conquer new heights.
Arker was a stagnant but peaceful and serene place. No one touched this village as it was mostly useless.
...
When Evan reached Arker, he headed for the nearest inn. Several thousand people were living in this village, so there were even several restaurants and one inn.
Evan didn't want to draw attention to himself poetically. He dressed in simple, slightly shabby clothes. If he was seen in Scarlet Sacrifice, most of the villagers would know he was a mage.
Evan wanted to bide his ti and attack the Azure Bridge group unexpectedly. He was going to kill three out of ten people using spell scrolls instantly.
Evan only paid a few copper coins for a mug of ale.
Evan thought, taking a sip of the bitter but generally pleasant-tasting ale.
Then Evan realized that he used platinum coins, one of the most precious, more often than the most common copper coins. Evan loved strength and power, but he hated the realization that much in this world depended on luck.
Evan thought.
The girl looked at the man who ca out to greet them and said stiffly, "This village now belongs to Azure Bridge. If you comply with our demands, we will not interfere with your life here. Understood?"
The man did not expect to hear such a thing. He frowned and imdiately received a stiff slap from Nuria. She restrained her strength, but still, the man's mouth bled.
She looked at him disdainfully and said, "We ca here to claim this territory now belongs to us, which ans you get our protection. But, instead of gratitude, I see resentnt?!"
The man imdiately dropped to his knees and began to apologize, "I beg your pardon. Of course, I am very pleased to welco you, please co into our best chambers."
