328 7.56 Back To Leeds And Surprise Awaits

"Today, we are going to have scrambled eggs with chopped string beans, grilled fish, some vegetable soup and steamed rice."

"Will, could you get our fishing rods, you may pluck the following vegetables to prepare for dinner as well."

"Matilda, let's go for some fishing together. At least we both have 'our time' together."

"Will, here is the list of menu for dinner, I'm sure you know what to do already for the basic ingredients."

"Yes, sir. I'd get to it immediately after passing you the fishing rods."

Matilda and I went to the floating platform and pulled ourselves to the middle of the river and started to fish using artificial lures. Every few minutes, we were able to catch trouts and we placed them inside a wicker basket in the water to make them alive.

"Matilda, tell me more about yourself. Are you happy being in the band? What are your plans for the future?"

"Well, my Granny made me swear an oath that if someone is able to revive my father's sword, I will marry him, no matter how young or old, how handsome or ugly he may be. Eventually, you came along and revived my father's sword and Granny reminded me of my oath and true enough, you will soon be my groom when I turned 18."

"Hmm, it's weird I don't find it as a surprise or shock when the first time I heard it. It's as if I had long anticipated this event to unfold. What do you think? You would one day expect to meet one another and I would revive Vendetta and you end up being together with me?"

"I don't know...its rather unexpected. I call you Robin when we are just the two of us and call you ring leader when there's someone else. Something tells me a relationship can not mix with the relationship of the Band."

"I'm happy with the band the way it is now. We are squarely paired off and only Will is left without a partner yet. Hii Hii Hii...do you think we have enough catch for the day? Let's head back to shore, I'm not used to being on a surface of the water too long."

I pulled the guide rope back and ended at the end of the river bank and we had caught more than 10 trouts that would be more than enough to go round. As soon as we had started to clean the fishes while Matilda looked for some twigs to skewer them, Jean Lethal and Stef had returned from their date in Byram.

"What took you both so long...we are preparing dinner now, so make yourself busy since we don't have lunch earlier and had fruits from the garden." I heard nagged at the two as they both hurried along to help prepare dinner.

"Sir, would you be going back to Leeds tonight to sell the Super Enhanced Ginseng Hee Ling Pills? I had left 2 ginseng plants untouched so in case you want to make more tomorrow you would have at least like 100-150 over stems and leaves."

"That's right Will, we would be heading back to Leeds tonight to sell the pills and also to inquire about the portal that we had totally forgotten about it. You'd stay back here in the damp and rake care and manage the things, OK? I guess the walls would be up by tonight, assisted by the construction offscreen crew."

"Ah, that's all right, sir, I would be alright here in camp here. If I may sir, I would like to make a trip to Byram and see for myself if there's anything worthwhile."

"Sure Will, there's no problem. Just make sure the camp is packed before you leave."

....

The dwarves passed the 4 pouches to me and thanked me for the wonderful dinner and bade adieu before they sauntered off towards the path where they came earlier.

"Yeahey...were going to be off to Leeds again tonight. Stef, open the trade link and I'll pass you 900 of these pills and you can set up your own stall while I and ring leader would be somewhere around and set up the stall as well. Tonight we both going to make a killing...!!! Hii Hii Hii"

"Heh...alright. I've learnt and read Lightfoot tome. I won't be able to catch up with you much and would need constant healing myself every 15 minutes or so, and since I'm a healer, I would be able to heal myself anytime."

The travelling had been established and the exchanged has been made. We informed Will that we are leaving and he told us that he would be leaving to Byram soon too. As soon as bade him and cross over to the other side of the river, all 4 of us engaged our Lightfoot and heads towards Leeds.

True enough, Stef needs a buff every now and then and she had made 8 healing buffs by herself after we had reached the outskirts of Leeds.

....

"Hey, look Boss...our Band's name is on the Top List of Duellers and we are now ranked as Undisputed Champions...!! All because of you Boss, you made our band's name to be the Top and no one dares to challenge it yet, of course. Hoo Hoo Hoo"

I looked at where Jean Lethal was pointing and saw the name of the band at the topmost level and was ranked as Undisputed Champions. It was scary to have the name of an underdog band suddenly appear as No. 1 topmost placing.

I looked for the announcer and told him to remove oi4 name as we do not want to attract too much attention and to reinstate The Flaming Arrows back. "Are you sure, champions to replace your name back to the Band that had been defeated by you?"

"Yes, please just do it without any questions." I simply instructed and the board was brought down and replaced back to The Flaming Arrows as No.1 Undisputed Champions.

I gathered the guys and explained that it would be a risk of we have our names up there. "Let others know us as Pill Merchants for the moment, it would have our skin in the long run."

The guys understood and I assigned Stef to set up a stall near a gazebo while Matilda was on the other side a few distances and within view of one another. The ladies began to open their trade link and we announced our wares.

"Hear ye, Hear ye. Super Enhanced Ginseng Hee Ling Pills heals 4 points every 2 seconds with 45 seconds colling time. Stackable. 1 gold coin each. No minimum purchase required. Please evaluate before purchase."

Some of the adventurers who had missed their purchase last night returned and find they had a better deal than last night and quickly snatched up 10 pills at one go.

These pills need not much introduction as the ones that had bought yesterday find sweeter deals today and bought as much as they could afford.

In the distance, we noticed a group of people coming over to us in a very hurried fashion. Since it was quite a distance, we took little notice of it as we showed our wares to be evaluated before any purchase begin and everyone that had bought it from added us as their friends' list.

I created a category under Ginseng Pills and group all the friend's list together so we can let them know when we would be coming to the city again. Furthermore, we need our latest member to catch up and to enhance her weapons and gear too.

The group of people that were heading our way was given space to move as there was about 10-12 of them and all were wearing glorious weapons and armour. The moment they reached my position, all threw their weapons down as they kneeled to the ground.

"Master, I am the leader of The Flaming Arrows, wishes to thank you for reinstating our positions to No. 1 Undisputed Champions despite having a great defeat in your hands. Your prowess is second to none and we wish to join your Band as a secondary tier team. We sincerely..." his speech was cut short by me because I had to interrupt as it would be a very long speech and was not broken down into bite-size for the readers to read.

"Please don't stand on ceremony and I am nobody's master. Stand up, everyone. At the present moment, I do not have any intention to expand my Band or territories because there are many places we had not ventures and monsters we want to kill."

"Just remember, even if you are our secondary tier members, just remember one thing. We are all adventurers and we help each other in need even if the person before you looks mightier and grand."

"There is no power and equality if one does not gain fame through his good deeds. Most importantly, be humble and do not intimidate others. The person who seemed so noob in front of you may even be the granddaddy of all arts put together."

"The Band of Vagabonds is merely doing business here selling their Super Enhanced Ginseng Hee Ling Pills that are stackable and has shorter cooling time. Would you like to buy some for yourself and your team members?"

"Sorry for the interruption earlier, you may continue what you wished to relay," I said while the leader looked at me with pained expression thinking that he could simply join our band on a secondary tier level.

"Well, since you put it that way, we would like to support you in buying your Super Enhanced Ginseng Hee Ling Pills instead. Could we add as friends so that we could continue to support one another?"

"Sure, send an invite and I will accept and you could trade anytime with my fair lady here."

Sales were very brisk that day and more friends were added to the group list so a broadcast could be sent to them with a single notification of any new products that we would be selling.

By 3 hours, our pills had been snapped up and we joined back at the tavern to discuss what happened earlier at the trading area. "It's a good thing you rejected them, ring leader. We won't be able to control a large number of people and mainly we do not do much nowadays."

"Yeah Boss, we haven't done any mining and since we got nothing much, Stef would supposedly start with the stone mines, then upgrade to the iron ones and then to the copper and tin next."

"Yes, Robin. I would like to contribute to the Band and not sitting idly. Anything that would be beneficial to upgrade, we'd do it together then."

"Alright open the trade link, all of you and I would like to see the 1760 gold coins here. Accept the 550 gold coins in your trade link now. Matilda, take the balance 110 and pass it to Will later. Without him we would have nothing at all."

"How about you...?" Stef said as she accepted the 550 gold coins in her trade link.

"Don't worry about me, I don't need the money, I have my own. Go on, it's all yours."
