51 Secret of the Tooth (1/2)

”Interesting!! how about we take it up a notch, 100,000 on the Savage Blade”

”Less talking, more walking!! if you want my money come and get it 200,000 on the Kobold.”

The announcers face felt when he heard the Mayor put forward that horrendous amount of money, this meant he truly believed the Kobold Man's strength was hidden deeply and this made him uneasy.If his boss lost 200k on his suggestion, he would be lucky enough if he didn't end up in a ditch somewhere around town.

The other three members of the board opted for a wait and see attitude and did not want to get involved in the main tycoon fight.Those two were always competing not only financially but also in the martial way but so far the mayor of Willowdale had come out ahead time and time again.

While all this was going on, Rahz was getting ready to leave the temple after an afternoon of ass whooping.Elune had never seen anything like it, from the grueling hits Rhaen was throwing his son to the unending willpower Rahz showed by standing over and over again, it was remarkable.

The afternoon training payed off for Rahz as he now could use his skills pretty fluidly and thanks to his father, he understood the limits of his new body.

The rest of the evening was expended in leisure as the group decided to hit yet another eating spot with another specialty fare from a foreign region.It was a pretty awesome time at the restaurant but the real star of the show was Elune that fitted right in with the crew, she put down a fair amount of grub to everyone's surprise.

When the group went back to the hotel, Rhaen managed to get an additional room for the new member of the team and this won some points with Elune since she had not taken a proper bath in quite some time or slept on a bed for that matter.

Rhaen decided to give Rahz free time the following morning before the big fight and was confident that his son could defeat anybody at least 2 Levels above him without much difficulty.The other purpose of the day off was to spend the 1200 gold coins available to them before heading back to the village the next day.

The first order of business was to get new clothes for Elune for fear of Etta thinking that the girl was not treated properly which will bring dire consequences for the both of them.The moment they walked into a clothing store, Elune's eyes couldn't help but light up.She might come from a normal clan but girls always like to have nice things and best of all she had 100 gold coins to spend on her own.

Rhaen stood quietly on the side and the only advised that he gave her was to make sure to get a coat because their village was smack in the middle of the snow.Elune put on the new set of clothes and it was like day and night , if it wasn't for the skull necklace she had on, anybody would have mistaken her for the daughter of a very wealthy aristocratic family.

Next stop on the list was the Alchemy shop, Rhaen wanted to buy more potions to help Rahz increased his strength and modified his body to something stronger than the young fighters in Silverwing City.

Elune and the others arrived at the entrance of the shop and very quickly the soul in her necklace started Yapping none stop about the low quality of the herbs and equipment sold inside the store.However, If Elune wanted to increase her proficiency in the alchemy arts, she needed materials and a cauldron to start her practice.

”Mr. Rhaen I am actually an alchemist apprentice and I can create potions a lot better than the ones sold here if you can buy the equipment and materials I would help Rahz with all his potions needs.”

Rhaen was pleasantly surprised at the new information coming his way, if what Elune said was true they made a steal buying her at 1400 gold coins.Rhaen gave her 600 gold coins a let her go to town, the soul was a little disappointed but considering who the sponsor was they couldn't ask for more.

When they were done buying all of the materials she needed, it was free time to go around the town and see if there were new things they could find from the stalls at the Central Plaza.Rhaen took all the clothes and alchemy materials back to the room alone and Elune and Rahz had time to bond and learn a little bit about each other.

The fact that Rahz had no inhibitions or any bad thoughts about her was what made her open up a bit more.Rahz stopped at every street food stall on the street, and even finished the whole supplied of chicken at the Yakitori place.It was simple fare but Rahz loved to BBQ wild game and the amazing taste the smoke from the wood was giving the chicken was excellent to say the least.

Seeing a really tall guy and an average size girl walking the streets made a lot of people giggle but they didn't care.The street food was a nice Ice breaker and at the end of their food tour it was like they had known each other for a few weeks.Rahz was also tactful enough not to ask about her clan and waited for her to touch the subject on her own.

Elune tried to ignore the rant of the old soul that would not shut up about how the allied races had declined and how poor and weak the people of the town were but after sometime she discovered that it had gone quiet on his own.

”Quickly tell the kid to show you his necklace.”
