Chapter 565 Going To The Market



William controlled himself to not laugh. Among the discussions he overheard, many started to place theories about the reason for the entire fight. People also talked about the rumours they heard before; the ones related to him joining the same academy he just killed all their members in the arena.

They saw and recognised the true identity of that team, and knew they were dark spirit masters. That made many masters confused.

None ever heard about an academy accepting dark masters. Dark masters infiltrating academies and big forces and clans was a well-known fact. But it was also known that they'd try their best to hide their true identities.

It was indeed the first time in this world to see dark masters revealing their identities in the open, without even fearing any repercussions about their daring actions.

As William walked towards the market, he missed the little storm that started to brew in the city. Hatred and enmity against dark masters were something like a rule of thumb in this world. And so, it was expected how many masters got truly enraged by all this, deciding to rally others and start heading towards that Long Feather academy.

They planned to seek an explanation from that academy. If the answers they got didn't appeal to them, they intended to burn down the entire academy, raise it to the ground and kill everyone out there.

Such intentions didn't just start in a few masters, but many actually started to act based on such an idea. Soon enough, a grand move would start, while lots of masters would move towards the direction of the academy during the upcoming few days.

William was now walking through the big market in the city. He didn't even think about the impact brought by his battle in the Spar Arena. At this moment, he was taking a walk, looking for something.

He had an idea in mind, but he didn't know if he could make it in this tiny world or not.

"How may I help you?" William didn't hurry to enter any stall or a shop at first. He toured this market twice, looked at the contents of each stall and shop with extra care and attention, until he finally found three suitable shops.

These shops sold different materials and goods, different from other shops and stalls in the market.

"Well… I'm looking for many materials, but the issue is that I don't know their names. I only know their looks. Can you help me with that?"

William stood inside of the first place he had in mind. He selected these three shops based on one simple criteria: the huge variety of goods in them.

This city reminded him of the old Scorching Lands fort. It was filled with tons of masters who came from different places, not only from the kingdom but from the entire continent.

This city had connections even with the other continent. So, it was expected to see lots of materials, cores, and even weird stuff that came from many places.

Yet William noticed that most of the shops and stalls here worked per specialty. They each selected a field, a product, and sold it in batches. That was great if anyone just wanted to purchase a specific thing. But to William, this wouldn't help at all.

He knew the names of materials he needed, the names of them in the outer vast world. Yet names were usually different between the two worlds, making him unable to find what he wanted if he went to such shops and stalls. Not to mention these materials were famous to be mainly in the outer world, rarely seen elsewhere.

He took his time in checking the entire market, spending hours in doing so. Then he found three shops where different goods were on display.

The first shop he selected was the biggest out of these three, one of the biggest shops actually in the entire marketplace.

It was the size of several buildings combined, occupying a large area of land. It was seven storey high, and William just arrived at the entrance where lots of masters were walking inside, buying or selling stuff.

He was inside a big hall, filled with lots of desks.

In front of him, a young man was there, surrounded by lots of scrolls. He had bronze hair and eyes, seemingly excited about doing this job or something.

"Sure, you can draw or tell the description in words, or use both," the young man took a batch of scrolls, placed them on the desk he was sitting at before adding, "to get the best results, you need to draw and speak at the same time."

"Ok…" William paused, before asking in doubt, "will that really be enough? Can you find these materials just by these?"

"Don't worry," the young man patted his chest as if he was showing off, "I got a spirit that can memorise anything in the world. Like this, I'll take a look at your drawing, listen to your words, before trying to match these with the materials I know."

"Cool," William found this young man quite easy to deal with. Another merchant would place tons of excuses in front of him before offering his services, not doing it in a straightforward manner like this young man did.

Of course, merchants would do that to ask for much higher prices for these materials, a thing that told William this young man was totally inexperienced in his career.

But that didn't matter to him. He simply grabbed the scrolls, started to draw and speak for almost half an hour. After he was done, the young man was now standing instead of sitting, looking in puzzlement towards William.

"Sigh! I should have expected this," William guessed the reason behind that young man's weird attitude. These materials were already rare in the outer world. So William got the feeling that it was impossible to find them here.

"Oh, sorry about that but… Can you follow me please?"
