Chapter 224: Ahoy. (2/2)
While waiting he also ree toward this island It was a first for him to travel out in the sea and they had even encountered ht not even arrive, it could have been pillaged by pirates or devoured by some sea creature with tentacles
Thus while he aiting he spotted a stall at which sonored food due to the arht burned through a lot of calories that needed to be regainedAfter eating a proper iven that caused some benefits so this would also help him recover any mana that he had previously lost
It was quite an interesting sight to behold The fish were set out on skewers that were perfect to carry around They were being dipped by the vendor in so that resembled oil If he had to coical version of a deep fryer He could not spot any coal or wood being used to heat the large pan up
‘It doesn’t feel like a runic item, probably some low-level enchantment’
Thanks to hisfrom the stall It was quite the wondrous source of power that replaced electricity in this world and apparently in cities like this it was cheap enough for even vendors to use it Thus he just pointed toward one of the skewers to get his fix
“Please co the small silver coin from Roland While the food wasn’t the cheapest, the taste wasn’t bad It was actually better than the regular food that he cae a book by its cover’
Without much to do, he found hi towards the sea Many shi+ps were arriving and the sa It seee If the shi+ps were delayed the person that owned the cargo would lose money as they would not be able to continue their trade
This was a stark contrast to the city that he was living in There was no order back there, the dwarves andwhat they pleased They could bully other businesses into shutting down and ain any money Here on the other hand it looked like everyone was co with each other for customers Thanks to this the items they sold had to actually hit a certain standard
‘At least if it coht be true but the dwarven shops aren't dropping their pricesbut it wasthis island’s weapon and armor trade He could not spot any shops that weren’t under the union’s uo was even plastered on the human-run shops Luckily the dwarves froet the tools to repair his gear
In the distance, he also saw a gaudy-looking white building It stuck out like a sore thus It was a large white church with golden outlines that represented the sun It towered over everything that was there and was still placed closer to the commoner districts than the noble ones
This was of course the teic placement between the poor and the rich so that they could receive donations fro about the cult and how the reaction to their location fully fast and convenient
‘It’s as if they aiting for Loreena, they must not have been stationed far from here to arrive this fast’
Their reaction was far too fast, it would take sohts and an inquisitor of that level In Roland’s mind, they had to suspect that the cultists were son Perhaps Loreena wasn’t the only hidden agent patrolling the lands, she was just the lucky one that h the cult’s illusion trap Luckily for him, the woman didn’t ask too many questions and allowed hirandfather that could spill the beans to his father if they ever ran into each other For this fact he needed to get hoeon His father or even the cult could coeance and he needed to prepare for such an occasion even if it was minuscule
“Could that be it?”
After finishi+ng his food he finally noticed a shi+p approaching the pier It was a h soe here and there as if it had been s forward and the sails were in working order
“Wait… haven’t I seen that shi+p so there he narrowed his eyes The shi+p looked a lot more beaten up but it did fit the one in his o he was carried over by a similar vessel Could have been the same one or was it just a mass-produced model that shared a resemblance The other shi+ps in the port had many similarities with each other as well so it was possible
Yet the moment it docked it became more apparent that this was the shi+p that carried hie bouncy chest that to this day was hard to forget It belonged to a woroup of sailors that were ready to diseo out o' here by the end o' this day”
“But cap'n, everyone be tired how about we allow everyone t' take a wee break?”
A large dark-skinned wo at one of the sailors From what he picked up she was the captain here, if Roland’s memory was correct then she had moved up in the world Previously she was only the first mate, this meant that either the old captain had retired or had died and she inherited the shi+p froht back the sexual harass for younger o too far and he was able to spend the trip to Albrook without getting assaulted It seemed that he would need to put hiain but perhaps she had e just as anyone else would
“Excuse ers, I wish to go to Vita if that’s possible?”
While the sailors started unpacking he didn’t wait to ask the question If it turned out that the shi+p would sail to Vita he would need to alter his plans With the captain just standing there it was the best way of getting information
“Who do we 'ave here, an adventurer? Ye wants t' sail on e man and the ar it underfor trouble For this reason, he went against one of his rules and decided to not walk around with his helmet on Instead, he just covered his face with the hood but when in close proximity his face could be clearly seen
“Yes, how , 'twon't cost ye that li Yet this was not the worst part as suddenly he heard a high-pitched screa fro down fro women quite similar to the captain in appearance and upper assets
“Big sis wha' are ye grinnin' about, let me see”
“Wha' ye two doin' shoutin' about?”
The two homed in on the conversation that he and the shi+p captain were having and surrounded hiazes were focused on his partially covered face and his shi+ny arer?’
