You considered going directly to collect your payment, but you wanted to take a literal weight off your shoulders.
You went to the pawn shop that Emilia had shown you on the last visit to the city.
Hidden behind an alley and with almost no sign that this was a store.
The sound of the bell as you entered was followed by the merchant's notice that he was now going downstairs.
That made you look up, and you saw the Gheist floating in the air, organizing a shelf four meters high.
"Ah, you're Emilia's friend. How's that bastard? Will she visit me soon to give me more of her crap?"
"Are you always this affectionate?" you asked as you started to pull out what you wanted to sell.
"Only for those who are not a pain in my ass. Now, what can I do for you, sir?"
Sale:
30 + 85(silk) + 56(R. Pistol) + 100(skull) + 38(Shield) + 30(Instruments) + 160 (acid mist) = 499
"Good items, I think I could even restore the pistol."
"Really?"
"Come back this afternoon with enough money. Firearms are not very popular, but there's always some idiot interested on them. It'll sell quickly."
"Now that you mention it, why aren't firearms popular?"
"Empire restrictions and charm magic really screw users up.
In the Great War the demons tried to use Gatling guns. A single spell from the enemy and you had those things aimed at your allies,
and if they manned them themselves they got targeted. Late in the war they made chimeras so firearms got discontinued.”
You left the store and passed through the market.
You bought some things you wanted and left the fuel for after you got paid.
You weren't sure if you were going to go for the pistol.
You would think about it.
All books = 300 (Books) + 100(medkid*2) + 20(Rations) + 35(bow) = 455
>Result: 44 coins>Monsterkiller (All); +1 damage to all types of creaturesMy notes tell me you already own Camping equipment
With your purchases almost finished you headed towards the offices of the Seeker clan.
It had been almost two hours since you had arrived in the city, so they should have prepared your payment by now.
You entered the modest facilities and addressed the receptionist.
You explained who you were and why you were here.
"Ah, you're from THAT expedition..." He leaned a little closer to you and started whispering "You should leave-"
Before she finished speaking, she froze.
And a hand was placed on your shoulder by someone behind you.
