- 291 I need to continue taking care of her fishes...
In the eastern region of the Sparkling Fortress, the site was a large commercial center because of the large guilds that had operations there. Many giant buildings with shops and malls.
The big shots had a tactical agreement between them: Don’t sell things that another group is selling.
This agreement was accepted by the big shots, so they can receive the profits from the things that each sells. When a new competitor appears, they team up to try to finish them off. The big shots always made it remain the only sellers on the market, of course, many smaller groups sell random stuff, but their profits were very few.
Often, smaller groups would go bankrupt or were forced to sell their items at auction houses at higher prices than at stores because of auction fees. Some preferred to sell a little cheaper, despite the lower profit, it was still some profit.
Each store of the big shots was decorated with the best and most expensive designs, this was to get the public’s attention and show their wealth.
Liu Yang was walking the streets of the district to do the quest to find the property deed. After resolving matters with attendant Marga, that was her name, Liu Yang received a number to show that he was the next to do the quest. His number was 1 because, at the moment, there were not many people doing this quest.
The big shots still tried, but they always did. At each attempt, they analyze the sites already explored before deciding what will be the next sites to be explored.
After the activities, the attendant Marga received her letter of resignation. She left the city and started making preparations to open her company and hire only female NPCs, who were abandoned by other players.
The place where the house or mansion was located was in the residential area of the eastern part of the city. The place had only villages, mansions, and big houses, only rich people can live in the place. For each property cost a great fortune.
Walking around the streets of the area, Liu Yang saw that the players’ and NPCs’ houses were incredible, each one was more decorated and beautiful than the other. It seemed that these players were having a competition to see who had the most beautiful and decorated house.
The mansion that Liu Yang would visit was in the middle of two other mansions, already bought by the players. At the entrance to the site, some guards were protecting the site, they were the ones who looked at the numbers and allowed someone to enter the property.
Some players were analyzing the place from the outside, as there were iron sticks as the first protection, the interior of the property can be seen. These players were the ones who were trying to search for possible places where the deed was hidden.
Liu Yang’s arrival attracted their attention, but it was not enough to make them talk to Liu Yang. Because they thought he was just another player trying to do the quest.
“Hello, I would like to enter the mansion and try to find the deed” Liu Yang greeted the two guards before showing the plate to them.
“You can enter. Take this, the time limit is one week. If you don’t leave within a week, that item will teleport you off the property. If you want to try again, you will need to pay ten platinum coins again “The guard confirmed the veracity of the plate and let Liu Yang in, he opened the iron gate before closing.
Liu Yang received a small iron brooch with some letters drawn on it. He figured it would be the transport spell to get him off the property if he didn’t leave in a week.
Upon entering the property, the system sound echoed to Liu Yang.
Ding… Ding…
“Quest has begun”
“You have seven days to complete the quest – 06 – 23:59:59”
Looking at the timer, Liu Yang didn’t care about that, he just walked towards the mansion. Liu Yang did not want to be seen by the other players.
The tall grass could already prevent other players from seeing him, but Liu Yang chose to be sure of that.
The mansion was like any other, large and decorated. The surrounding areas were already full of wild animals like rabbits, cats, snakes, and many other types. They lived in harmony.
Opening the mansion’s door, Liu Yang saw that everything was dark and there was no lighting inside.
“Now, it’s time to check things out” Liu Yang blinked his eyes and activated his ability to see souls. He wanted to see if the soul of the former mansion owner was still in place or not.
“You can go out” Liu Yang released everyone, the contrasted beasts and the girls.
“Young master, why did you call us to this dirty and dusty place?” Sophie complained. She didn’t like that kind of place.
As only one player could enter the mansion at a time, none of them bothered to clean. Thus, the place remains full of dust and cobwebs.
“Nina, can you clean this house?”
“Yes, young master” Nina nodded and all the dirt disappeared like magic, besides, the lights were turned on and everything was lit up. That was the power of a Tier God NPC.
Liu Yang rarely used girls to fight, he preferred to have them in his bed.
“It’s done, young master”
“I thank you for that. We will look for the hidden treasures in the mansion. You can split up, but don’t leave the mansion, it can be problematic ”
“Yes, young master” Hearing Liu Yang’s order, everyone started to go somewhere inside the mansion. None of them left because they can be seen.
Liu Yang went to the back of the mansion, as he figured there was going to be something there. At the back, there was a lake with a small waterfall in the middle and lots of fruit trees around the lake.
The lake’s water kept moving towards the waterfall and fell back into the lake. The cycle seemed endless. Hundreds of fish of all types were swimming in the water as they ate the fruits that fell in the lake.
Some fish were being caught by the cats and other animals that live in the mansion. This was to maintain the natural cycle of nature, otherwise, the lake would already be full of fish.
“I need to continue taking care of her fishes… I need to continue taking care of her fishes… I need to continue taking care of her fishes…” A melancholy and lonely voice was heard, or rather, Liu Yang managed to hear this time speaking in the language of souls.
(I found it !!!) Liu Yang saw that on the edge of the lake there was an old man with white hair holding a jar of breadcrumbs, he was throw in the lake, but no fish could eat because breadcrumbs were not real and they couldn’t even see the breadcrumbs.
Liu Yang approached and tried to start a conversation.
“Hello” Liu Yang spoke in the language of souls.
