Dungeon Of Pride, Laplace
Chapter 232 - Serene Palace Merchant Guild
Simon wiped the sweat off his forehead as he felt an increasing amount of headache dealing with her. Most importantly, he had to do something about the pent up frustration of this little girl before she ends up blowing this entire city into oblivion.
While it was true that the life of the inhabitants and the city had nothing to do with him, this city was still a precious source of income for him.
He had already met an adventurer that had previously dived inside his dungeon back at the adventurers guild and due to this city being close to the Ghastly Winding forest, who knew this city might even become filled with adventurers who are looking to dive inside his dungeon.
Simon couldn't bear to see such a huge gold mine disappearing from the surface of the planet.
He looked around before suddenly a delicious scent that stimulated his appetite, came from one corner of the street. There he could see multiple stalls lined up and selling various food products.
With his glance, he could instantly see various meat, fish, vegetables being grilled and a delicious smell wafted from there. An idea suddenly struck him and he stored the parchment in his hand.
"Let's go… since we are out here, we might as well try some dishes from this city" Simon pointed towards the food corner and led the little girl.
When the conversation headed towards food, her former somewhat cold eyes, immediately started shining with an unknown splendour. Her delicate nose sniffed the delicious aroma that came wafting towards her, controlling her movement.
After her mood brightened from the mention of food, the gloomy atmosphere around her suddenly disappeared. Although at the level which she was, she could go around without food and rest even for a year, this and that was two different things.
Simon smiled helplessly, he felt like an idiot for trying to think of various ways to calm the mood of the little girl, when in reality it was easily solved by bribing her with food.
He sighed before coming in front of a stall. The owner of the stall gave them a business like smile before pointing out the food of his recommendation.
"This good sir and young lady, you must try this meat skewer. The flavour is my home made secret and the meat is none other than from a high level 60 monster. There is also the stew cooked with various meats and vegetables".
Gulp… Adalinda immediately swallowed a mouthful of saliva when the lid cover was opened and the delicious smell wafted out.
"Everything, serve everything that you have" she curtly replied.
The owner looked at the young man who nodded his head and he immediately started preparing. Buy everything, how often does one come across a customer like that, he could only thank his lucky star.
Maybe it was because the food was delicious or because she had built up quite a bit of frustration, but the appetite of the little girl was also monstrous. Even the owner of the stall looked at the little girl in a daze who emptied bowls of food like they were nothing.
Looking at the swiftness with which she was devouring the food, one had to wonder where she was storing all that food in.
Simon couldn't control his curiosity and ordered one plate of food too.
One man and one little girl could be seen on one corner of the food street gulping down one food after another and before long, they had almost tried out everything that the various stall around here offered.
After finishing their meal, the two departed from the place with a delighted mood leaving the various onlooker amazed.
After returning to the busy main street, Simon and Adalinda followed the path mentioned on the parchment and after a while of walking, a huge mansion that gave off an ambience of luxury came into view.
The building had a large yard and various passer-by that walked from here, gave it a look at least once. That's how grand the mansion in this corner was.
"So the client stays here huh" he was not mistaken, the direction in the parchment pointed at this building.
Taking a step, Simon walked towards the entrance of the mansion. The place besides being a beautiful landmark, also served as a shop with various objects and items inside for trade.
The moment he entered the yard, he could feel various hidden presence all around the area who were working as guards. At a glance, Simon could tell that each of their levels was no less than 150 and there were even some with levels over 200 inside.
The tight security of the place made Simon marvel internally as he slowly stepped inside. One had to say that the interior of the mansion was no less posh than its exterior. If one accounted the various artifacts and items showcased all around the room, the place seemed to be filled with riches that could make any ordinary person eyes fill with greed.
Of course, if there are any idiots around with such thoughts, they would be met with an iron fist of the guards that were placed around carefully.
When Simon and Adalinda entered the building, a staff immediately came to greet them.
"May I know for what purpose this esteemed sir has visited us?" from the way he gave a practised smile, one could see that he viewed the two of them as customers.
"Its about this…" he handed the staff the parchment of paper he got from the adventurer's guild.
The staff read the parchment before giving Simon and Adalinda quite a bizarre stare. The staff couldn't be blamed after all, given the garb of the two of them, they do not like adventurers at all.
The staff mused for a while then brought the parchment of paper with him and walked through the hallway before disappearing. After what felt like a few minutes, another person came out through the hallway along with the staff that Simon had seen first.
"Greeting I'm Alvara the person in charge here, may I inquire if the two of you are adventurers?" The person that greeted them was a charming woman that could immediately cause the surrounding gazes to focus on her.
She had a well-built body, and a poise that gave others a feeling of an unsheathed blade. Her short black hair reached till her neck and she wore leather clothes that tightly actuated her curves. Her figure was so shapely that it could make one gulp unwittingly.
At this moment, the sharp eyes of the woman was thrown in their direction as she scrutinised them.
Simon nodded his head in affirmation and answered "Indeed, we are sent here by none other than the guild manager of the adventurers guild".
Hearing the reply of the black-robed man, there was a momentary shock that quietly flashed in her eyes before she quickly hid it.
Alvara handed them the parchment back before turning around and nodding towards the staff beside her. At that moment, the multiple gazes that Simon had felt locked onto them, silently disappeared.
Next, the woman addressed them before leading them towards the interior of the hallway.
Simon who was following behind, inadvertently gaze at those wonderful curves of her buttocks whose shape couldn't be hidden even with the help of her clothes. He laughed dryly before immediately shifting his gaze, he had to admit those long legs of her were quite alluring.
At the end of the well lit hallway, was a flight of stairs that led to the floor above and in front of the stairs, were multiple guards decked with armours and weapons.
The moment they spotted Alvara coming towards them, they performed a salute in unison by clanging their weapons which were silver lances onto the ground. Just this performance of theirs, was enough to tell others that they were no ordinary guards and were highly trained.
All of these guards did not move from their position and only spared a few glances at the two new faces behind the woman.
Their entourage of three people swiftly climbed the stairs before being greeted by another hallway. There were multiple rooms with hidden presences, the three of them passed by multiple rooms before stopping in front of one such door.
Knock..Knock….Knock...
The woman leading them knocked on one of the doors in a somewhat unusual rhythm.
It didn't take long for a soft voice of that of a female to come from inside "Come in".
Alvara turned towards the two of them before saying sternly "Wait here". She then opened the door and disappeared inside.
Simon and Adalinda patiently waited outside for a while before the door was opened from the inside and Alvara gestured with her eyes for them to come inside.
The inside of this room was even more lavishly decorated than any other place of this mansion, the room had no window and only a single entrance at first glance. There were multiple hidden presences tightly surrounding this room.
At the centre was a set of sofa, sitting on it was a woman with a beauty that could easily overshadow Alvara next to her.
Her body had beguiling curves that made it hard for one to remove their gaze from it, violet hair that gracefully stuck to her back and reached her buttocks. Her eyes were like a cat mischievous and temping, red lips and snow-white skin.
She wore a dark purple dress that tightly stuck to her exquisite body and emphasized her beauty even further.. From the bottom of the dress came a straight cut that ran all the way upwards to her thigh, revealing and hiding those dazzling legs beneath.
While it was true that the life of the inhabitants and the city had nothing to do with him, this city was still a precious source of income for him.
He had already met an adventurer that had previously dived inside his dungeon back at the adventurers guild and due to this city being close to the Ghastly Winding forest, who knew this city might even become filled with adventurers who are looking to dive inside his dungeon.
