15th day, the month of Sephri, the year 1661.
Sipping my hot cocoa, I calmly drive my little coach into a small town. This is the rumoured town I heard from those three.
After the guard do an inspection over my coach inventory, I was granted passage. Some might consider me a fool for trying to set up a road shop here but I beg to differ.
The last few days are not only spent on begging to get permission to do this from Leo and Fiona but also stealing many official documents that is somehow needed to operate here such as shop permit, fishing permit, hunting permit, animal ownership permit, visitation permit.. Kay this one isn't forged but paid at the gate but you get the gist.
All these nonsense permits would have cost a total of 2 platinum and 20 silver if one actually pays them, but I only need to pay 20 silver for the visitation permit.
Why do I need it? That's because I'll be staying here for 3 days and sell some wares. Of course I plan to do couple things at night but my cover are being a street peddler to gain trading experience.
During the last few days I had also found out the reason this town can act so brazenly without repercussions. It is because the city Garrison leader are the son of a Viscount in Craftsman city and he is gaining profits from all this.
It is not a big issue to fix honestly, I thought as I set up my shop when I reach the small market at the center of the town.
Why did I say fix? That's because Mr. Leo told me to. Yes, it seems he is aware or my night activities and decided to put it to good use and now I have to do his "request" from time to time.
If you complain about how I just bend without resistance then you are dead wrong. I did try to resist and say my opinion, but a slap from him is all it took to bury me a few meters in the ground. I really wonder how is he having trouble in the dungeon yet so powerful out here, a special skill perhaps?
But let's cast the discussion for another time, my first costumer is here.
"Welcome, do you see anything that caught you eye?" I said with the best salesperson smile I could muster.
"Ah yeah, what's this thick white liquid?" He asked as he lift a tube with thick yet translucent white liquid.
"Ah that's a potion I made personally, I call it steroids. It heals 20% of your health and also restore 50% of your stamina while giving 30% strength, Agility and vitality buff. I should know, I've tried it." Seeing that stuff, I can't help but look at it with disdain.
"The way you look at it make it doubtful, what's the catch?"
"You will feel restless if you don't move and do something physical. It would be a good thing in a battle but as an alchemist who basically sit around all day mixing things, that thing is the last thing I would consider taking." I said with all the seriousness I could muster, the guy seem amused by my words as gave me a mischievous smile.
"How about proving your words and show me the effects?"
"How about I force you to drink it for free?"
"Oh and have your costumer restless and hot? I might assault you in the heat of the moment you know." Saying so, he smiled widely and look at me like I'm a piece of meat.
His gesture and his gaze send shiver down my spine because... he's dead serious and it doesn't feel like he is aiming for the violent type of assault!
Quickly stashing and collecting everything, I pick up the matt I use as my little shop and put them into my coach "sorry but I just remembered I have somewhere to be, I shall take my leave now!"
Before I could climb on the coach he grabs my and gave me a pleading look.
"Wait wait wait, we have a misunderstanding here. You seem good with alchemy and you are just the right age for my taste!"

"no I don't think we have a misunderstanding here, you are definitely someone with bad intention!" I thought inwardly as I curse my damned luck.
Speaking of luck, I noticed that I could lessen the effect of the bad luck once it kick in or annulled it completely.
When I extract people, I seem to suck away their luck as well. This doesn't seem to work on beast but at least by extracting people, I could avoid having meet an early death and at most have some birds rain poop on me.
But lately I couldn't get any meal as people avoid going around alone and rather stay home than going out at night after 1/50 of the population gone missing.
... Okay maybe I did went overboard and brought this unto myself but still catching the eye of a pervert is too harsh of a punishment!
"Sir, please let go of my hand or I will call the authority." I said while giving him a threatening look. I could just beat him up but there are too many people watching me in this market, besides the guards are already eyeing our way the moment the guy went physical.
"Ahaha you look really cute that way, how about we go someplace more private?" He offer still with that same with smile and with how his fingers rubbing my skin, I lost it.
Wriggling my arm free I did not pay attention if he was thrown away from the force or not I just took the reins and whip my horses to move, making them run and pull me deeper into the market.
Ignoring the complain from the pedestrians I took a glance backward, confirming that he didn't follow me with my eyes and the map.
Feeling relief and a bit of guilt seeing his dot break through the wall of some building, I make a mental note to compensate the owner of that apartment.
Just as I look back ahead and about to slow down my horses, I pull the reins forcefully and cause them to come to a sudden halt.
It seems while the other pedestrians are able to move out of the way, one girl trip and got left behind in the middle of the road.
The quick action did stop my horses from trampling her, but it did not stop the momentum I had as I was lifted off my seat and kiss the ground.
"Damn, this is really not my day" I muttered before blanking out.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
