Chapter 25: West Trade City
While they were on the train, Matt looked at one of the scrolls he got from that cave.
It was only a tiny part of the scroll; you could see it because it was torn at the ends.
But this small part appeared to be a map.
'They broke it recently... Why did they do that?' Matt thought doubtfully as he studied it for a long while.
If Matt thought the map was a normal-sized sheet of parchment, he would need another four pieces to reconstruct it.
"What is that, Matt?" Alice asked doubtfully as she looked from the side.
"It appears to be a map. We got it in that cave next to the scrolls." He answered truthfully, as he tried to find something different about it that would give him some information.
Alice looked at it and frowned.
"That's weird. Isn't the piece very small? How did you find out it's a map?" she asked doubtfully, and Matt smiled.
"Apparently, they broke it recently. Look at this area here; they look like mountains, right? If we do it like this..." Matt said, grabbed another piece of parchment with a quill, and started drawing mountains in a flat format to make it look better, trying to shape the strange figures shown on the piece.
Even though he was doing it with an idea he had in his mind, it came out pretty good.
"Oh... If it looks like that, it certainly appears to be a map... Matt, you're very good at a lot of things." Alice said with a smile as she stared at this.
Matt shook his head with a smile, "It's still pretty small. It doesn't give much information. Still, maybe it can be of some use." He said and then put it away. n0ve(l)bi(n.)co/m
For the rest of the trip, Matt was teaching the ancient language to the pair of beautiful ladies traveling with him until they finally see what the world knows as 'the West.'
It is nothing more than a complex of cities of the five kingdoms. Each town is vast, and there are many of them. They are built in a way that surrounds the west's mountain range.
Most cities belong to the five kingdoms, but some are independent, such as the Western Trade City.
It is one of the main cities for trade in this world. Diverse races come here, being a city with an incredible geographical position within this vast world.
Practically, the entire world economy passes through here, except for the economy of the distant Human Empire and the devourer territories.
But that stunned Matt.
'Two things that big? Unbelievable, that looks like a whole city. I wonder how much it'll cost.' He thought as he glanced over his shoulder at the ship that was already moving away.
Still, this was no time to waste time.
"Well, we'd better go to the blacksmith." He said, and soon they walked through the blacksmith area until they came to a vast store.
The sound of hammers clashing against metal echoed throughout the street, but here, it seemed to be more booming as it was the largest store in the area.
Alice crept in and made her way to the front desk.
"Sir, may I know if Mr. Paul is in?" Alice asked as she got this far.
The one attending to them frowned, "Paul Cox?" he asked, and Alice nodded.
"That's right, is he in?"
"No. He doesn't work here. Four streets down." Replied the man disrespectfully and moved to another location.
Alice was surprised to see this.
"How disrespectful..." Isla said suddenly upon seeing him like this.
This was something the aggressive-looking man attending them heard and looked at them, "Disrespectful? Hmph, you're lucky I don't kick you out by coming looking for that guy in our exalted store; how dare you call me that?" he asked angrily as he approached, but Matt shot him a dangerous look suddenly, startling the man.
Though he looked muscular, he was just a tiny fly in front of the current Matt, so he was startled by this look and backed away, slightly bumping into the shelves behind. Although it was only slight, he fell and formed a stir in the place because he lost control of his legs due to the fright.
Many were attracted to this and came to see what was happening, but Matt grabbed Alice and deftly slipped out unnoticed.
When they were outside, Alice frowned.
"Four streets down is Mr. Paul's house... It looks like something happened; let's go there, Matt." She said, suggesting what they should do.
Matt had nothing to say; they walked to that place soon after.
