Battle of Ascension Chapter 30: Shop Location

After that Randy immediately went on his hunt, he did not think much about meeting with Asuka and Kojiro. He felt it's normal to meet someone in the hunt.

He goes to the Black Wildcat area, he is still waiting for the appearance of the wolf who killed his two best friends.

Randy hunted until 5 pm, he attacked 5 Black Wildcat nests and managed to kill 211 Black Wildcat.

He decides to come back after seeing the day is getting dark. Then he saw the Exp he got today, 59175/204800 Exp. He got about 8000 Exp for today.

"Sigh, looks like I have to hunt a beast that has the same level as mine or a higher level, otherwise I will not be able to catch up the people on Level Ranking," Randy thought.

But he still has not found the wolf yet that killed his two best friends, though he doubted that the wolves are still alive, he still decided tomorrow he will hunt here again if the wolf still not appear then he will hunt the beast that is the same level with him or higher than him.

It took 25 minutes for Randy to arrive back in Jakarta, but this time the sight near the monument was different as usual. There are no stalls along the street to the monument. Randy feels weird, usually, along the street, there are many stalls selling weapons or buying parts of beasts that people hunted but today there are no stalls at all along the street.

Randy did not really care because he never made deals with the stalls seller, he just feels weird. He headed straight to the teleportation site to return to East City.

As usual, after he arrived at East City he went straight home.

"I am back,"

No one greeted him or responds to her greeting. His father who had come home first, Wisen just looked at Randy before he took sip his coffee, it seemed that he was reading the news on the forum again. While Almira and Zhen Yi stopped chatting briefly and turned to Randy before continuing their chatting.

Randy felt like he was getting into the wrong house when he saw this. Then he went into his room shaking his head. After he entered the room he went straight to the bathroom to wash up.

20 minutes later Randy left his room, the situation outside has not changed. Wisen seems still reading in the forum, Almira and Zhen Yi are still chatting. Their chats are really endless.

Randy then sat next to Zhen Yi. The size of this house is not too big, 2 bedrooms and bathrooms in it, 1 kitchen, and 1 living room at the same time place where they usually eat.

Randy also did not know what to do, his father focused on his reading and his mother and Zhen Yi who chatted a topic that he did not understand. Randy finally decided to read the forum as well, he very rarely read forums. 3 weeks since Battle of Ascension, he only read the forum 2 times. The first when he was looking for info about Luck stat and the second when he was looking for info about the price of the equipment, after which he never read the forum.

In East City, the forum is divided into several more forums such as Beijing Forum, Tokyo Forum, Jakarta Forum, Bangkok Forum, and so on. As its name the Jakarta Forum, there are many discussion about the events that occurred in Jakarta. Then Randy looked at the Jakarta Forum.

There he sees the topmost post is "Now Banned for Opening Stalls on the Streets".

Randy was curious about this, when he came home from the hunt there were no more stalls along the street, then he opened this post.

There was said this afternoon, there were people from East City who wore the same full armor as the guards at a teleportation site in East City but the armor of these men wore was silver armor, not golden armor.

They announced that from today it is forbidden to open stall along the street and if they still want to open a business they can rent a shop that available in the Jakarta city. In this post also tells anyone who did not agree with the announcement of the people who wear silver armor and refused to close their stalls. But people who refuse to close their stalls are caught by people who wore silver armor.

Seeing this the people who refuse to close the stall are captured by people who use silver armor, the others immediately close their stalls afraid they will be caught too.

Then Randy saw the response of the people who saw this post. Most of the responses that Randy sees are complaints, many people also said that people who wore silver armor are dictators. People who wear silver armor forced them to close stalls on the streets so they rent the shop in Jakarta.

There are also people who invited to protest to Adventure Guild about this. There are also those who respond that this is normal because the streets are not the place for them to do business, but only a few people think so. Most of them protest, maybe those who refused this decision are the ones who opened the stall, if they open the stall on the street they did not have to pay rent fee but if they rent the shop then they will need to pay.

After knowing the reason why no one opened the stall, Randy closed this post and saw post number 2 under with title "Beware of Swindler in Jakarta".

In this post, many explained about the swindlers in Jakarta, like the swindlers that Randy's parents found when he did not come home after the hunt. In this post explained the characteristics of swindlers and how they act. Here explained everything. After reading this Randy felt relieved, luckily he managed to get home first before the swindlers managed to deceive his parents.

Not only this, there are still many other swindlers even there are swindlers that deceived people by killing the victim and took their equipment. Randy read this one by one and keep in mind the characteristics of this swindlers so he would not be deceived by this swindlers. This post is very long, did not know how long he has read this post, he suddenly smelled flavor the food that is being served by his mother and Zhen Yi.

Then Randy closes this post and prepares for dinner. When Almira and Zhen Yi sat down they started their dinner.

When they had finished their dinner, they continued chatting.

"Oh son, about the shop for our restaurant, the rent fee is 300 Gold and its place is 15 shops away from the entrance," Almira told Randy.

"Mom, why did not rent the shop right in the front Guild Area entrance? why choose 15 shops from the entrance? Has anyone rented a store right in front of the Guild Area entrance?" Randy asked his mother. He thinks the shop right in front of the Guild Area entrance is better than the one which his mother chose.

"Mom chose that shop because it was cheaper than the shop right in front of the Guild Area entrance. The shop right in front of the entrance of the Guild Area rent fee is 500 Gold, 200 Gold more than the shop I chose, so mom chose that shop. Anyway, that shop not too far from the entrance of the Guild Area and cheaper too" Almira explained why she chose the shop with distance 15 shop from the entrance.

"Mom, we'll take the shop right in front of the Guild Area entrance and you do not have to worry about the rent fee, leave it to me," Randy tells his mother to choose the shop right in front of the Guild Area entrance.

In fact, if the Legendary grade weapon he auctioned was sold at a very high price, he intends to buy the shop instead of just renting.

"But..."

When he saw his mother wanting to insist on renting the shop she chose, Randy cut off her mother.

"Well it has been decided, we will rent the shop right in front of the entrance the Guild Area. I'm quite tired after hunting today so I want to sleep first. Goodnight mom, dad"

Then Randy got up and ran into his room not allowing his mother to speak.

Almira just shook her head when she saw Randy run but in her heart quite happy.

Not long after Randy entered the room, Zhen Yi also entered the room. She did not look at Randy and went straight into the bathroom to wash up. While Randy did not go straight to sleep, he waiting for Zhen Yi to finish bathing in the bed.

Then he remembered about last night. Apparently, after tasting the forbidden fruit he wanted to taste it again.

30 minutes later Zhen Yi came out of the bathroom, she saw Randy's eyes full of lust. But she refused Randy outright and said, "Not for tonight, I still feel sore there"

"Okay," Randy answered with a bit of disappointment.

Then they slept, Randy hug Zhen Yi while sleeping. At first, Zhen Yi feels uncomfortable but she let Randy hug her.
