**********

Luciel was walking towards the forging spot that was in the western corner of the City.

After walking for 1 km Luciel then saw a large forging place and saw people working there about 20 people. Soon a second bell signifying midday rang and workers began to stop their work for lunch and rest.

Luciel also approached a man who looked like the owner of the forging place.

“ do you own this place sir? “ ask Luciel.

“ Yes, what is your business here young man? “

“ I want to work here for 2 days sir,“ Luciel explains why he came.

“ Alright “

Luciel took out a heated sword and began to forge it with a hammer. Not long after that he finished making an ordinary sword.

“ Hmm, the results you made are decent. How long have you been forging a young man's sword? " ask the man.

“ About 2 years, I always help my teacher. He's a blacksmith too,“ Luciel replied.

“ Alright, you can start working tomorrow, this is when the first bell “

“ Alright, thank you lord “ Luciel then go back to the horse carriage to wait for Liz.

.

Luciel was making potions when Liz returned to the horse carriage.

“ Oh, hey Liz. How about your date?“ Luciel deliberately teases Liz.

“ What do you mean Ciel, we just roamed the city together “ Liz pouted with Luciel's temptation

“ Well, it's called dating Liz,“ said Luciel.

“ Whatever, by the way – by the way I just registered so hunter Ciel,“ said Liz.

Luciel felt it was too early to become a hunter. Hunter had a higher death rate as a Rookie compared to being a mercenary.

“ Well no problem, don't push yourself too much and gather as detailed information as possible about the Quest you took “ Luciel gave some advice to Liz.

“ What did Ciel do, while staying here? “ ask Liz.

“ I will work on the forging site, I hope I can learn also some forging techniques that I have not mastered there,“ replied Luciel.

“ Alright, so where do we stay? “ ask Liz.

“ Follow me.“

Luciel and Liz then headed to the city market, seen some groups of merchants they recognized were selling there. Not long after they arrived at a 2-story inn. They went in and approached the reception desk. The guard is a father – middle-aged father.

“ Hello young man, what can I help you with? “ ask the father.

“ How much is 1 room per night, sir? “ ask Luciel.

“ 50 torches and includes breakfast a porridge of wheat and cheese “

“ Alright we will rent 2 rooms for 3 nights “ Luciel also give 3 pieces ral to the receptionist

“ Alright, here's the key. Go up to the second floor in the room that says 10 and 11,“ said the father.

Luciel and Liz then went up to the second floor.

“ Hey Ciel for the money you gave me, “

“ Take it easy, Liz can return it if it is already a famous Knight. And when that time comes, you can treat me to a most famous restaurant in the Imperial capital “ Luciel smiles at Liz and gives her some encouragement

“Ummm,“ Liz nodded

Luciel and Liz entered their rooms – each. The room is not spacious only measuring 3x3 meters, 1 mattress made of wood and wool which is more comfortable than the Mattress owned by Luciel dlu ‘ I think lodging in the city center is indeed better ‘.

Luciel then put the goods – goods in the corner of the room and potions – ingredients in a small shelf that has been provided.

Dong!!!! Dong!!! Dong!!!!

A bell was heard as much as 7 times indicating the evening time has arrived. ‘ I think the time to rest is now ‘
