Renovation

"Eh? Are you serious, sir?" Lixia asked. "Yes. However, it may take a long time to complete. But it will be the beginning of the road for us," answered Satria while taking out the 600 gold coins he had prepared. "You can give this to the loan sharks. Regarding renovations, I will explain later because we need a temporary place to stay while this place is renovated. I'll meet Alexa and Trixi at the adventurer's association building. I'll leave Nekora here first," said Satria. "Oh yes, sir. Don't you want to see the knife I'm forging?" Lixia's guest lit up. "Oh, the fangs I gave you that time, alright. I've also been curious to what extent you can cultivate it, "said Satria as he walked from the place to place. Lixia immediately showed Leviathan's fangs that she had forged even though they were only halfway through. Still, at least they were already shaped like a knife. Seeing this, Satria is sure that Lixia is indeed talented as a blacksmith. Satria praised Lixia and said that Satria would provide the best quality forging tools in her new workplace. Hearing this, Lixia looked even happier. Satria immediately walked towards the Lunar City's adventurer association building. Still, for some reason, it felt like today he met a lot of demi-humans. Even among them seemed to be adventurous demi-humans. Still, Satria didn't worry too much about it and continued towards the association building. All the adventurers who were there, as usual, stared intently at Satria, especially this time Satria also wore a priest's robe even though he didn't carry a magic wand. He also kept his flagship weapon back in his bag. Satria immediately entered the building and headed for the second floor without paying attention to the gazes of the adventurers around him. Even some members of the Squad were seen continuously staring at Satria from a distance. "Long time no see, Alexa," said Satria when he saw Alexa sitting with Trixi outside their office. "Eh? Satria?" said, Alexa. "Satria, you came back faster," said Trixi with a smile. "Yes. I hurriedly came here because my business in the capital was finished," answered Satria. Alexa immediately invited Satria to sit down. "I didn't think you'd be home so soon. We've heard everything from Lixia's mother if you intend to help them," said Alexa. "Oh, so they've already told me. It will be easier then, I intend to help them, but they should also say that I'm not helping them but buying their residence and shop," said Satria. "They also explained it, but seeing the benefits you offer, it doesn't feel wrong if we call it a favor," Trixi said while offering tea, but Satria refused. "Right away, I came here because I wanted to offer you something," said Satria. Trixi and Alexa immediately glared at Satria, who was suddenly serious. "I want to find a new place to live. If possible, I want to buy it instead of renting it. But if there's nothing to rent, that's fine too, but I want it to be cheaper in the countryside, which is a bit far away. I want to take all of Lixia's and her mother's belongings to the new place. At the same time, their residence and shop will be renovated," explained Satria. "Later, if you succeed, I will give you a reward," continued Satria. But Alexa and Trixi just smiled hearing that. "That's not necessary. If it's for the sake of Lixia and her mother, I will help as much as I can, even without any reward," Trixi said. "Trixi is right. You don't have to be like that. We are friends, so you don't need to give us anything. Lixia is also our friend after all," Alexa said. "I'm not sure, but if it's true, then it will be easier," thought Satria. "Then I thank you. Later, please let me or Lixia know when you find it," said Satria. "Okay," Trixi replied, making a gesture with her finger. "But are you sure you want to renovate it? The cost will probably be prohibitive, especially in the middle of a city like that," asked Alexa. "I will collect the money. For me, it is a very suitable place to do business. No matter how big the cost, the long-term benefits that will be received are more," answered Satria without hesitation because he had carefully calculated all of this. "Alexa, we need your help. There's a lot of paperwork that needs to be taken care of by the end of this month. The association chairman will check it later," suddenly, from the stairs, a woman called out to Alexa. When they saw it, it turned out that another association officer had come from upstairs. "I'm going to." "Eits, you guys just chat here," cut Trixi while holding Alexa's body which was about to stand up. Trixi is seen winking at Alexa while grinning. "Leave me alone," said Trixi. "Come on, Trixi," the female attendant said as she walked back upstairs. "Have a nice chat," Trixi said with a wink. "Ish, she's weird," said Alexa, blushing. "Oh yeah, has the information to access our stats been conveyed in this Lunar City?" asked Satria. Alexa looks shocked. "Oh, I thought you didn't know it yet. Yes, everyone in Lunar City must have known about it. I was also going to ask you about it, but I rushed to discuss Lixia's problem," Alexa replied. "I see. Did any players come here while I was away?" asked Satria again. "I met eleven players, maybe actually more than that, but what I realized and I greeted only eleven people. The first two people came, the second four people, the third four people, and the fifth one person, namely this morning. But the last one is wearing good armor and equipment. He seems to be a pretty experienced player," Alexa replied. "But I'm not saying I'm a player because they don't seem friendly. I just remembered that I've also met a full party squad player on the streets, but I didn't dare say hello to them. Moreover, I am worried about my safety, especially after everyone knows how to access his bag slot," continued Alexa. "Your actions are correct. There is no one who will care about our safety other than ourselves in this world. I'm sure that's what other players believe too. If they are not friendly, it's also natural because, on the way home, I also met a savage player who didn't hesitate to kill his friends," said Satria. "Is that true? But are you all right?" asked Alexa with a worried face. "It doesn't matter. Oh yeah, I saw that there were a lot of demi-human adventurers outside. Is there a lot of quests in Lunar City?" said Satria. "Oh, recently, there have been many adventurers from the Grimer Kingdom coming here, a lot of merchants from there too. It's known that the Luxurie Kingdom is indeed very open for the demi-humans," replied Alexa. Satria just nodded his head in understanding, although it was not something natural for him. The Grimer Kingdom, which is to the west of the Luxurie Kingdom, is indeed one of the large empires whose population is nearly ninety percent of the population is demi-humans. The Grimer Kingdom is directly adjacent to the Luxurie Kingdom if seen from the map. Still, suppose from Lunar City you want to go to the Grimer Kingdom's territory. In that case, you must first pass through Nou City, which is also still in the region of the Luxurie Kingdom. "Oh yeah, I'm curious. You've already decided to help Lixia and her family. Still, you also know that what you're dealing with is a loan shark who probably has some ties to these Lunar City officials. Aren't you afraid?" asked Alexa. "You mean because they are already aiming for the land where Lixia is?" guess Satria. "Yes. I'm sure people like you already know what they're really planning," Alexa replied with a smile. "They will take a long time to realize I was the one who lent Lixia the money. I told them to say get money from someone else. They will be careful in their actions. Because in a short time I pay it off, they will definitely investigate secretly first, "said Satria. "Aren't you afraid?" asked Alexa. "No, I've calculated everything. Even if it doesn't go according to plan, I've prepared another backup plan. Therefore, you don't need to worry," answered Satria. "Hemh. If you say it, I can only believe it," said Alexa with a sigh. "By the way, where will you get the money for the renovation of Lixia's shop and residence? What's more, you said you also wanted to buy a house for temporary residence," Alexa asked. "I will work hard to complete the quest. Besides that, I have other skills that I might use to make money," answered Satria. He had planned everything carefully, including finding additional costs for the renovation costs. He realized that his current money would not be enough. "My first steps in this world are about to begin. Vanzard, Andre, you guys just wait! If all goes well, you will soon reap all your treatment of me!" Satria thought.
