29 Dojo (1/2)

Aphy went back to the restaurant. She had been waiting for the dessert and decided to fix the streets while she was waiting. It wasn't hard for Aphy, but for a normal mage, a feat like this would be impossible.

Aphy used one of the highest tiers of magic, time magic. She rewound the time on the broken streets to the time when they were fine.

Kerym was shocked. This was the first time he saw something like this. He knew it was magic, as he could sense the enormous mana in the air, but he didn't know how this was possible.

”How did you do that?” Kerym asked Hoemis.

”I didn't do that, my colleague did this,” Hoemis clarified.

”Who is this colleague of yours? If I may ask.”

”She probably wants to keep her identity hidden. Unlike me, she doesn't like attention. Anyways, where can I have my dojo?”

Kerym nodded and turned to Kigai. ”Can I have a personal request?” he whispered.

”As long as it's reasonable,” Kigai replied.

”As the best assassin, can you keep an eye on what Hoemis does? See who he talks to and where he goes.”

”You know, I would, but Dilya just gave birth. I want to spend time with my family. Don't worry though, I'll send a request to the assassin ranked second on the leaderboard.”

Kerym nodded. ”Hmm, that's ok. Spend time with your family, we're already so old anyway.”

Hoemis coughed. ”Hello? Can you answer my question?”

Kerym turned to Hoemis. ”Oh, yeah. I believe we have a few spots at the edge of the city. I can have someone show you them if you'd like.”

”Yeah, that would be good.”

Kerym nodded and ordered one of the guards to get him a lot manager. The guard nodded and went to find a property manager.

After a few minutes of waiting, the guard came back with a lot manager beside him.

”My king, what did you need me for?” the lot manager said, bowing.

”I need you to find a place where this man.” Kerym pointed to Hoemis. ”Can build a dojo. Don't worry about the payment, I'll pay.”

The lot manager nodded and walked over to Hoemis. ”Hello, my name is John and I'll be showing you around properties for your dojo.”

Kerym watched as John took Hoemis around the city, showing him possible places for his dojo.

Kigai watched Hoemis from afar, making sure he didn't do anything he shouldn't.

John showed Hoemis the lots he could buy. There were lots of different shapes and sizes of lots. Some were big and some were small. Hoemis didn't want one that was too big, but he also didn't want one that was too small. He wanted one that was just right.

After going through a lot of lots, Hoemis finally found one that was perfect. It wasn't too big, and it wasn't too small either. Another plus was that it was in the same street as the magic school, which was where Aphy taught.
