95 Radozack Joacino

"Auch…" Trevon heard the other party groaned.

"Hey! Do you want to die?!" Trevon felt a bit stressed again. He saw a fat young man in front of him.

"Ah! I am sorry! I am sorry!" A man with a very big belly like a wine vat bowed. He dropped several things from the bump. The fat man quickly tried to gather his belongings.

Trevon wanted to punch the fat man. He raised his right hand preparing to teach what happened if you bumped into a young master in the street.

"Eh?! You must be Young Master Trevon McArthur!" The man looked surprised when he raised his head.

Trevon stopped sending his fist. [He knows me?]

The fat man gave a huge smile, wiped his hand, and nervously offered his hand. "I am your biggest fans." He showed a brotherhood smile and even forgot his dropped belongings.

[Eh? Hahaha. I don't know that I am that popular.] Trevon couldn't be angry with his fans. [Why isn't he a beautiful lady? Hwehwehwe. A fan is a fan. Hahaha.] He returned with a brotherhood smile too.

"Ah! My bad. My name is Radozack, Young Master can call me Rado. I saw your performance in Hillbridge. You really owned the stage, Young Master Trevon!"

"Erm… You saw my performance?"

"Yes. Yes. You and Miss Isemeine performed the best performance that I have ever seen. I can still remember my feeling was touched after seeing that performance."

"That is nothing. That is nothing. Hahaha." Trevon felt elated. He took his fan and fanned his head to cool it. [This man is a good man.]

"It is a huge pleasure to meet you today." Radozack still gave his hand.

"Ah!" Trevon forgot to shake his hand. He also gave his hand to shake.

Trevon's hand looked small compared to Rado's. Radozack could be said as big as Omar but was shorter than Trevon.

"I am sorry for bumping into you, Young Master Trevon. I hope I can show my sincere apologies. Why don't you come to visit my home? It is not far from here."

Trevon felt it was the Rabbink's method. He looked at Master Rabbink direction.

Master Rabbink was checking a snack on another store. It left a gold coin and took the foods on display.

[I can't get the change money using this method.] The Rabbink took even more foods to compensate its valuation.

[Do you pretend not see this?] Trevon thought, but the Rabbink didn't respond.

"Young master Trevon?"

"Ah! Yes. Yes." Trevon wanted to know the unique cave house. The house on a mine wall was strange for him who had lived in Bluestar and Redwood. "Please wait a minute, erm... Brother Rado! I want to purchase some souvenirs." He called Rado as a brother since he could show the brotherhood smile.

Trevon went inside the store and purchased the souvenirs for Aya. Meanwhile, Rado gathered his dropped belongings.

Trevon walked with Rado further down the street.

"You are a citizen of Goldcave, Brother Rado?" Trevon could avoid but ask.

"Yes. I live in Goldcave mostly. My grandparents gave me a huge money to start my own business. I often visited the Capital and Bluestar to trade." Radozack answered. He led Trevon for his house.

Radozack from what Trevon could see should be a rich merchant. His robe was made from a silk. However, Trevon wouldn't know that he was a merchant from his robe. Unlike most merchants, Radozack wore a yellow and blue robe. A strange combination in Trevon's opinion.

[Name: Radozack Joacino]

[Age: 58 Years]

[Sex: Male]

[Species: Human]

[Potential: 21/21]

[Determination: 77]

[Cultivation Speed: 46]

[Loyalty: 35]

[Decision Making: 12]

[Talent: Cooking, Mathematics]

[Affiliation: Joacino Family]

[Whoa?!] Trevon felt a bit surprised. The big man who led him was a cultivator. Rado was old but looked young from his cultivation. [Well, he is young based on his cultivation status.] Trevon thought.

"You are a cultivator, Brother Rado?" Trevon couldn't help but ask again.

"Wow! How could you know, Young Master Trevon? Yes. I was lucky and managed to learn from a master. My grandfather didn't want me to continue in the cultivation path. He said I have to be a merchant."

Trevon looked to the young man from top to the bottom. Nobody would expect him to be a cultivator. Rado could be said good-looking compared to a commoner. Even as a fat man, he was very handsome. A big smile on his big lips, clear and happy eyes with dense black hair made Rado seemed approachable.

"I just feel a different aura from you." Trevon made a random reason on the spot. "Also, please call me brother! I will call you Brother Rado and you can call me Brother Trevon." Trevon said pleasantry since he wanted to visit Rado's house.

"I don't dare." Rado rejected. While waving both his hands.

"What if I insist?"

"Then, Rado could only be thankful, Brother Trevon." The fat man showed a wide smile.

"Why do you still keep the body size, Brother Rado?" Trevon asked. Most cultivators would become slimmer unless they had a unique cultivation like Jonathan. Even Omar had started to lose weight after he cultivated, but the big man decided to keep his size. He was afraid of losing his prestige in his family if he turned into slim people like Marcus.

"Hahahaha. People often feel it is strange. My body doesn't look like a cultivator. I cultivate, but I love to eat. I am more comfortable with this size." Rado laughed. "Besides, this body made the girls love to hug me."

"Really?" Trevon could avoid but think to become a bit fatter.

Rado continued to lead the way. He spoke about several things around them. As a native of Goldcave City, Rado introduced Trevon to several famous stores and products in the city that they passed.

They walked for about ten minutes before they arrived at one of the doors in the wall. It was slightly larger than the other house. [It must be modified to suit the owner.] Trevon thought.

"This is my home. It is a big pleasure for me to accept Brother Trevon in this house." Radozack used his key and opened the door.

[Eh? He opened it himself?] Trevon wondered. From his clothes, Trevon believed Rado was a rich man but he had to open his own house alone.

"Welcome home, Master." A middle-aged butler received Radozack. He looked old with a tired face and white hair.

[Name: Carmick]

[Age: 178 Years]

[Potential: 14/14]

[Affiliation: Joacino Family]

"Butler Carmick! This is Young Master Trevon McArthur. He is my honorable guest. Go and buy some delicacies from Dwarven Cavern! I want to have a feast today."

"Yes, Young Master." The butler bowed before looked into Trevon and his bodyguards, trying to remember the face. "Welcome to Radozack Mansion, Honorable Master!" Carmick, the butler bowed to Trevon.

"Hahaha. Please do not think about that!" Rado felt embarrassed seeing his butler. "Stop it! Go buy the lunch!" He drove his butler away.

Carmick hurriedly bowed and left the house.

"Hahaha. I am sorry for that embarrassment. McArthur family pavilion deserves to be called a mansion more. I am sorry but that is what my grandfather taught him. The house in Goldcave is smaller. I don't have many servants in this house. Please come inside!" Rado led Trevon inside.

"No worries Brother Rado, I know." Trevon felt a bit fascinated with the house in Goldcave. The design was very different from the house in Bluestar, Redwood, or Hillbridge. They were like in a different place. There was no usual Heavenly Phoenix carving. He didn't see the usual phoenix painting on the wall.

"Brother Trevon must be visiting Goldcave for the first time." Radozack saw Trevon looking around his house. "This place was smaller when I received it from my parents. I needed to call some stonemasons to remake some parts of this house."

"You could modify the house?"

"Yes. It isn't that hard with the formations. However, the hard part is to get the permit. There is a city council which calculates each renovation plan. I need to pay extra to be able to change the size."

"Look at this hallway. In the past, this was only this long..." Rado showed his house to Trevon.

Trevon looked around. Radozack's house was very small in Trevon's opinion. Its living room was only the size of his bedroom in Bluestar. The floor was covered with a blue carpet, which made the room feel warm. A wooden panel covered the wall, making the place didn't look like a cave.

Rado furnished his house with luxury products. This clearly showed his status as a person with a family name. Rado's house didn't look that it was a caveman house. The house showed the city's name, Goldcave.

Trevon saw many shining pearls installed in the room to ensure there was enough light in every room. Since Goldcave City was in a monstrous cave, the windows could barely give light to the interior. Nevertheless, the light was spread nicely in the small house.

Radozack didn't have another butler so the young man served the tea and snacks himself. Trevon sat on a comfortable sofa made from demon beast's skin. The sofa was soft and warm similar to a spirit jade bed.

"Sorry for this! It is hard to find a living space for servants and maids in Goldcave." Radozack served a tea. "I hope my tea suit, Brother Trevon."

"No! It is fine. I could get the chance to drink your tea, Brother Rado."

The two young men quickly talked about many things in the city.

"Brother Trevon, do you want to see the number one lady in Goldcave performed?" He turned his smiling face into the brotherhood smile.

"Yes. Do you want to visit the Drunken Night?" Trevon asked while also showed the brotherhood smile. He had heard about the place from Ainsley. That place was his main destination for today.

"No… No… That is an outdated information. The ladies at Drunken Night are very beautiful indeed. I have to admit that. However, the most talented girls in Goldcave are in another establishment."

"Teach me, Brother Rado! Hwehwehwe."

"There are twin ladies in Cave Melody. They are the most famous ladies in Goldcave now. You haven't visited this city before you see them performed. Hwehwehwe."

"Yes." Trevon nodded.

"A day with them is like in the heaven. Gazel, the older sister could dance like a fairy, while Avia, the younger sister could sing like a siren. If we are lucky we could see their performance together today. If Brother Trevon combines Brother's music playing ability and their performance, we will have the best performance ever." Rado spoke excitedly. Trevon could see Rado's belly jiggling.

Trevon could imagine his performance with the twins. He had met some twins in Bluestar, but they weren't top performers. All only sold their uniqueness as a twin to perform.

"I really want to watch them. Hwehwehwe." Trevon changed his goal for today.

"Knock… Knock… Knock…"

"Oh! That must be my butler." Rado explained to Trevon. "Please wait here, Brother Trevon!"

"You are a bit late, Carmick." Rado complained. His voice could be heard from the living room.

"I am sorry, Young Master. Dwarven Cavern is a bit busy today. The merchants from Hillbridge just arrived today."

"Ah, Fine. Just serve us the food!" Rado complained to his butler. He was receiving an important guest today.

Rado returned alone and continued his talk with Trevon.

"Sorry, for that Brother Trevon."

"Hahaha. It is no problem. Do you come to Goldcave with our family caravan?"

"No way, Brother Trevon. I just started my business. My wagon is not big. I am only using an affordable caravan to practice doing small business first."

"Ah! I see. If you want, you can join my family caravan. My name could give you a huge discount. Just tell that you are a friend of Trevon McArthur." Trevon offered.

"Thank you for that, Young Master Trevon. I have made a contract with the current caravan. It is impolite to change caravan during the journey."

"Ah. Sorry about that."

While Trevon and Rado were talking, Carmick the butler came and served the foods on the table in the living room.

"It is ready, Young Master Rado!" He bowed to Rado.

"What is this?" Trevon saw a huge amount of foods on the table.

"This is the foods from the best restaurant in Goldcave. I believe young master Trevon had to try this. Let's us have our lunch together."

"Lunch?" Trevon saw around twenty different menus on the table.

"Ahahaha. I also love to eat." Rado said. "Please wait a minute!"

Rado went toward Carmick. He whispered something using spiritual sense. The butler bowed and went outside again.

Trevon and Rado ate the lunch. They didn't speak a lot since it was a proper etiquette. Trevon saw Rado had learned proper table manner.

[He is from a noble upbringing.] Trevon thought.

After the foods, they continued their conversation.

"This is the best tea in Goldcave. It is from a small village outside the forest." Rado explained the tea for Trevon.

"Let me help you prepare the tea!" Trevon offered his ability.

"No. Let me do that!" Rado couldn't make his quest preparing a tea for him.

They continued their talk when Carmick came again. He went closer to Rado.

"Ah… The delay in Hillbridge made me lost my table for yesterday." Rado felt bummed. He squeezed his chubby palm and frowned.

"Your table?" Trevon couldn't avoid asking Rado.

"I am a frequent in Cave Melody. Well, I am not yet a VIP member, but I am a familiar face. Hahaha." Rado said with a proud smile. "I am talking about those beautiful twins. I have sent my butler to check whether we could get a table for tonight performance, but the show already fully booked. I would suggest the arena for today entertainment." Rado sighed.

"We should try to get a table first. I believe we could use my family name and your frequent customer status." Trevon was confident. "At the worst, we could enjoy a private room."

"You are correct, Brother Trevon. Damn… That family killer. He made me lose my table. I will kill him personally if I saw him." Rado showed a gesture like he squeezed wet clothes.

"Hahahaha. I believe he wouldn't dare to go near Brother Rado." Trevon had laughed a lot with Rado. He finally knew why most main characters had a fat friend. They were happy people who enjoyed their life and shared happiness with the stressful main character.

Trevon and Rado went together to the Cave Melody. Rado didn't bring Carmick while Aya and Marcus continued to follow their young master.

They walked a long path toward the center of the mine. During the walk, Trevon saw many unique items in the stores. However, the Treasure Snatcher Trevon wanted to keep his image with his new acquaintance.

"This is a bit far." Trevon commented.

"Hahaha. This distance is normal for people in Goldcave." Rado laughed. "Since a higher place was a more exclusive location, most pleasure houses were located near the bottom." He explained.

"That is far." Trevon saw the bottom path.

"Actually, the lowermost location was the most expensive. That castle is the house of the ruling family of Goldcave."

"The Ironlaw Family?" Trevon wanted to make sure. He had read the guide.

"Yes. They were the family, which led the attack on this small dwarven kingdom a hundred thousand years ago. It was said in the past human merchants had to pay a huge tax for passing this city."

Trevon had heard about this Ironlaw family. It was a slightly smaller family compared to the Redwood family. However, based on the family lesson, McArthur younger generation should not antagonize the family.

Trevon only knew from his family lesson that he shouldn't mess with Ironlaw family. The family wouldn't bail a spoiler young master who did that.

They walked a bit further on the spiraling road. Finally, Trevon had walked eighty percent towards the bottom.

"Here it is!" Rado pointed to a big door on the mine wall.

"This is Cave Melody?" Trevon didn't feel anything about the place. He could see a slightly blurred board of Cave Melody. Other than the board, there was nothing different about this place.

Rado came forward and knocked on the door. "Knock… Knock… Knock…"

"You have to knock?" Trevon found it was unique. Most pleasure houses would open their door widely to welcome patrons.

"Yes. The house is exclusive. You couldn't enter without a reference from other patrons." Rado raised his big chest.

"I must thank Brother Rado for introducing me to this place. Hwehwehwe." Trevon laughed.

"Creak…" A lady opened the gate. "Who is this? Ah, Young Master Rado. Please come in! You haven't visited us since two months ago."

"Hahaha. I am sorry. I went to the Capital and went straight toward Bluestar for business. I have always missed Miss Dwyners." Rado placed his hand in the wrong spot. The lady laughed and hooked her hand into Rado.

Trevon looked into the beautiful lady who hugged Rado. She had a bright smile decorated her sexy lips. Deep eyes, which could make a man trapped. The temptress also had a mature body that enticed the lonely man.

Rado was a cooperative victim. He hugged the lady closely.

Trevon could smell the soft and enticing flower perfume sprayed by the lady.

"I am bringing a friend today, Miss Dwyners." Rado showed Trevon.

"Ah! Young Master Rado's friends could visit our establishment without worry." Dwyners the lady smiled at Trevon. She had seen the beautifully dressed young man next to Rado.

[Name: Kaja]

[Age: 26 Years]

[Sex: Female]

[Potential: 0/0]

[She is a normal lady.] Trevon scouted her. He had only checked a few things when he met a lady. Sex information was very important, he didn't want to meet some traps.

"It is my pleasure to meet Miss Dwyners. My name is Trevon McArthur." Trevon smiled.

Miss Dwyners seemed trying to remember something.

"He is a young master of McArthur family. Miss Dwyners would never see him before. I want to suggest him for this establishment. This is Miss Dwyners, one of the beautiful managers of this house." Rado explained.

"This is Brother Trevon McArthur, the talented young hero from Bluestar." Rado bragged about Trevon to the lady.

"Hahahaha. Brother Rado overpraised me." Trevon took his fan and fanned himself. He loved to be with a good understanding man. Rado was far better compared Ainsley as a wingman.

"Yes, please this way, Young Master Trevon." Miss Dwyners led Trevon and Rado inside the house.

The inside of this house was bigger than Rado's house. However, Trevon could only see some alleys with the wall covered with some red colored woods.

"We don't have a large performance hall, Young Master Trevon." Miss Dwyners saw Trevon looked around. "Our biggest rooms had only twenty tables. Each was VIP quality."

"Ah!" Trevon smiled.

"What about my table? Could you give me a table Miss Dwyners?" Rado said in a whimpering tone. "You must be able to do it. I know Miss Dwyners has an inside channel. My friend came from a Bluestar just to watch the twin beauties."

"He wants to watch the twins?" Miss Dwyners seemed to be in thought. "How about you rent a room this time. They won't perform until midnight. However, you know the rate, Young Master Rado."

"Do not worry about the rate!" Trevon cut. He only stayed in Goldcave City for three nights. Therefore, he wanted to experience the best entertainment. "I want the best room, with the best performance. This will be my celebration to meet Brother Rado."

"Erm... That will be expensive, Brother Trevon." Rado reminded. "The luxury room is one hundred spirit stones per hour. The twin performance would cost over two thousand spirit stones per performance. However, I need to ask them first. They can't perform until the night."

"No worries, we should enjoy ourselves until that time. Brother Rado had shown me this hidden gem. Today will be my treat. We have to celebrate it."

"This can't do, Brother Trevon. I was the one who invited you."

"No. Do not reject that! If you think I am your brother, you should accept my treat." Trevon said. As a young master, treating a friend to an entertainment was common. This was especially for richer young masters.

"Ah! Then I can't reject your offer, Brother Trevon." Rado couldn't spend that much money as easy as Trevon. He was only a low cultivator while being a cultivator boosted his income, his business was a small one.

"Then, we should do the registration directly in the room, Young Master Trevon." Dwyners was smart and could see that Trevon was a patron with deep pocket. "Please come this way!"
