32 Spending.

'I hope he thinks that I teleported away...' I thought to myself while walking away from the guild, with this new money that I had it was time to buy some normal clothes, hating standing out is normal.

He knows that I wear green, let's fix this. For all I know looking around my vision already saw that the outfits is made from good fabrics.

Being on alley I turn off my stealth since my mana is being sucked off pretty fast even if the density got better for usage. Around half of my pool went away from that one-sided slaughter, that is good in a way, but not enough. I went through this once already, staying weak is no fun.

'At least I got to have some entertainment on the guild keke~.' I laughed while thinking. I really need information right now. I am really like a lost one in the middle of nowhere.

Going through the same process of asking people directions, I find a small shop on the way selling some stuff to hide my body with, and upon entering a girl a little taller than me with wolf ears exiting her head through her hair, probably 12, she is wearing a 'cute' tailleur in her body - 'I cannot really understand the sense of beauty of humans yet... this is supposed to be cute right?' Thinking about her I eyed the girl's body shamelessly.

"Sir?" She said while being annoyed by my actions - "Do you need something?" The brown haired girl finished to try and make me stop reviewing her image.

"Yeah," I started speaking while shifting my eyes to hers - "I came here to buy some clothes. I want new ones, you know what I mean right?"

"No problem, you can call me Sara, we'll need to get your measurements first, and what type of clothes are you looking for?" Sara spoke as she looked at my strange glittery clothes.

"I want the design akin to what I am using, you sell pouches here too right?" I explained to her and in the end asked something to put my needles - "Do not forget a belt for retaining of my daggers and a mantle too." I added.

"Sure, sure, now follow me to the back, my grandmother is there and she will gauge you." Pulling my arm she guided me to a door and behind it, a old woman with white hair and wrinkles on her face could be found. Do not forget her white wolf ears.

'This rat thinks she can just hold me?' I thought while freeing my arm from her hold making Sara pout.

"Grandma! A customer came to make an order!" Sara said getting the attention of the old lady.

"Oh, come here..." "Nash." I interrupted her by giving the woman my name as I walked in her direction.

Nash right now is in the back room where the old lady, now know as Madlen, is. She is taking Nash's numbers on his body, currently he's on his green underware while having Madlen's measuring tape around his waist.

Nash was not going to waste this opportunity to do some questioning about the city in general - "So woman, do you know if there is a place to rest? A good one." He said while Madlen changed the tape from his waist to his thigh.

"60." She said first to her granddaughter so she can write it down after using the tape on my waist - "Yeah, I know a good one, my friends run it, I will write it for you before you go."

Now that Nash started this conversation, he tried to proceed smoothly until he asked - "Is there something going on in the kingdom? Or to the world?" This phrase confused the woman a little.

"What do you mean? Are you asking about the war? You don't know?" Sara this time spoke out, making her 'older' version pause to look at both.

"Yes, I lived in a secluded place, I did not even had time to learn about the world, and since the books at my house was not that updated my knowledge is a bit lacking." Nash answered - "Could you give me some info?"

"I mean... what's there too know? Our kingdom just declared war against the Ethavell reign! In my opinion they are just greedy, they didn't give the citizens much information, but for the rumors that are going around is something silly like money and magic weapons-" As she started talking about magic weapons I interrupted.

"You mean like... weapons made from mythical monster?"

"Mythical monsters? That's a bunch of lies, folktales okay? And I thought I was going senile..." Finishing her words she felt a chill go down her spine as Nash glared at her making her freeze on the spot.

"Thanks for the help, is there a library out there? And do not forget to give me the location of the lodging." Nash spoke while wearing his clothes.

"Y-Yeah... Sara, get him ready, see you tomorrow N- Sir." Madlen said trying to make Nash quicken his pace out.

Not minding her doings he got ready to go after paying some gold coins to them - 'How can clothes be so expensive?' Nash thought about the price of fabric.

...

Laying on the bed of the inn with my hair cut short now and my garbs ordered I was ready to start my plans, before going to sleep I would stock some venom outside my body to sell, even if it is not the stronges, this would be enough to sell for some quick cash.

And money equals power for what I know, power means power too... but well, that is not important now as I am quite stagnated.

Good thing I did that massacre at the guild since it actually placed enough experience for me to reach level 12, things are still slow, but pacience is something that I should have as a snake, but that is kind of hard.

The next day I will discover a new world in the civilization, there has to be some dark places here.
