Chapter 24 - CHAPTER 24:

As I finished wearing my clothes, I got out of the inn; I took a right turn and headed towards the bazaar since it's simply the fastest shortcut to the auction house.

As I was walking through the bazaar, I heard shouts coming from everywhere: 'If I had bodily reinforcement on my ears, I would have suffered permanent hearing damage.'

While lost in my thoughts, I heard shouts emanating from my right.

"Come on in!!! We sell the best jewellery in all of Qarth!!!" shouted a man standing on my right.

"Come over here!!! We have the best silk!!!!" shouted another.

"Don't listen to him!!! We have the best silk and jewellery!!!!!!" shouted a third man.

"You there!!! Young man!!!! How about you take a look at our jewellery!!!!!!! We have just the thing for you!!!!! " said the man from my right, "No, thanks, I am not..." I started saying when the third man came over.

"He doesn't want your faulty jewellery!!!! Come over here, sir; we've just got a new opal bracelet. It won't stay here for long!!!!! So you better take it now, or you will regret it for the rest of your life!!!!!!" He spoke so fast that I almost couldn't keep up.

"I am not..." I started saying before being interrupted once again, "Faulty!!!! How dare you call our products faulty!!!!!! Everyone knows that yours are the faulty ones!!!!" the first man shouted.

"HOW DARE YOU!!!! WE ONLY SELL THE BEST OF PRODUCTS!!!!!" shouted the third man. "YES, I DARED. WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT!!!!!!!?" the first guy shouted.

The other guy then turned around and entered his shop, which surprised me and the other guy a lot. "Hah!! Is that all you got!! Now why d..." Before he could finish, the third man came back with a sword in hand.

"WHY DON'T I COME OVER THERE AND SHOW YOU WHAT I AM GOING TO DO ABOUT IT!!!!! YOU THIEVING MOTHERF***ER!!!! COC* SUCKING LITTLE BITC*!!!!" the third man shouted, swinging his sword in the air.

"XIN JIANG HUEY DOESN'T LOVE YOU!!! YOU MANIPULATIVE ARSEHOLE!!!!" The other guy said, unsheathing the sword at his waist and meeting the guy face to face.

Seeing how this no longer is about me, but more of a personal thing, I decide to take this chance to run away into an alleyway.

'This mark the last time I will ever walk on normal streets; I will stick to the shadows and rooftops from now on.' I thought to myself as I jumped off to the rooftop.

As I jump through rooftops, I can't help but sneak a peek at some women with ample breasts; they have huge tits, and it's kind of nerve-wracking.

'I can't be blamed!!! I mean, they are literally showing it to everyone, so I might as well take a look!!! ' I justify myself as I am jumping in the sky.

It doesn't take long for me to reach the auction house; it's in the middle ring of the city. It's built next to the inner wall of it, so the high nobles and middle nobles find it easier to reach.

"Mr Magnes, this way, please," says a petite woman who has high Valeryan traits with her breast showing. The layout of the auction houses are similar to each other except in size; she directly leads me to the VIP room.

"Here is today's item list, sir." She says, handing me a list full of names and price tags, and I quickly start browsing through them.

"We hope you find what you want!" She bows as she says this, adding, "If you need some alone time with..." "There won't be any need for that!" I say cutting her off; she turns around with a poker face and leaves.

Not even five minutes passed before Sister arrived. "So what did I miss??" she asked, looking around and seeing if the auction had begun.

"Nothing much; the auction hasn't begun yet. Here are today's items; the items are boring and uninteresting. Except for the scrolls and books, everything is trash." I say earning the sister's attention.

"Don't be so harsh; they can't be that bad. Right??" She asked; I gave her a look and then pointed at the list I just gave her.

After she read the whole thing, she looked at me and said, "Wow, this really is trash!!" I gave the ^I told you so^ look.

"At least the books and the scrolls aren't that bad." I say, "You really plan on buying the books too?? I thought you already knew everything about ships and sailing??" Sister asks.

"This is different; although I am an expert in sailing more than most captains and pirates, there is no harm in learning more." I say, making my sister look at me weirdly.

"You are always reading books. If you stay like this, you won't get married??" She said, feigning worry, "I look at her dead in the eyes and say, 'I have a higher chance of getting married than you do.'"

"Huh!! What's that supposed to mean!! Are you...!!!" Just as she starts shouting, a fat man appears from the door with a dark-skinned man; he had long black hair with brown-green eyes and shiny white teeth.

Sister and I shared a look and turned our attention to the stage. "I thought I would be the only one here!" said the fat man. He has pig's eyes and fat cheeks; he has a huge belly and a pair of heavy breasts that sag like sacks of suet.

He also has a forked yellow beard; he wears heavy perfumes. In contrast to the Black man, he has crooked yellow teeth; despite his bulk, he can walk lightly.

"The name is Illyrio Mopatis!!" he introduced himself with a honeyed voice while extending his hand for a handshake.
