2 A Rather Intresting Shopping Trip

Robert yawned as he rose from bed, contemplate beginning his morning routine whilst scratching his head. Life in Ox Village was a very slow and stale thing, but the beautiful site of the sunrise from his window made his days there worthwhile.

He had been there for around a three days now, gathering information for his current task. After getting dressed he turned to his dresser to look at a paper which has been sitting there since he got here.

[EARL BAKER, WANTED ONLY DEAD - Age 24]

Once finished report back to the Qia Familly For Reward

(Important)

Make sure to obtain the stolen golden satchel

"Well, no one ever said making money was going to be easy, I just wish this bastard hadn't run so far."

Just underneath the Kingdom of Water and beside the Kingdom of Metal lay a small village used as the main bridge between four countries; completely outside the control of each thanks to a treaty. Our main character Robert is currently after a man who is originally a resident from the Kingdom of water.

Once he came to Ox village, the Qia family could no longer chance him because of the treaty put in place and; if earl crosses the border he is home free in the Kingdom of metal. This is where Further joins the scenario. Since he is affiliated with neither country and can be counted as a separate entity, he can act freely regardless. This is true for all bounty hunters as well as those affiliated with cultivation sects.

After a bit of deliberation he left to go find information from people on the streets. Threatening the locals did work but right now he would rather not cause discourse over something as small as theft, even if it was from one of the major families of the Water kingdom.

After walking for a bit and purchasing food since he was a bit low, a young salesman was spotted selling pastries to the tourists passing by.

"Well what do we have here?" Said Robert to himself

He was no ordinary merchant, as strength exuded from his body. From his estimates, this man had at least practiced to the 9th realm of the body refining phase, and at that point he had the strength to punch with the mass of 18 elephants. Seemingly in a joyous mood, Rob approached the man to question him.

"Have you seen a fat man pass by with curly black hair, in his early 20's?" Robert ask the salesman

"It seems quite a few people are looking for that esteemed theft, what is your name? and no, I can honestly say I haven't seen him"

After hearing this Robert moved on without a reply with a knowing smile on his face. This infuriated the previously happy man.

"What! You think you are better than me! Don't think that I don't know what kind of person you are"

As the man said this he pulled a knife that was stashed under the counter of his sales booth, right next to a pile of napkins with "have a nice day" printed on them. Running around the counter he sprinted at rob, who was previously about to leave.

"I wouldn't advise that" Said Robert in a relaxed tone

When the sales man was just about too reach him; so close that you could even smell his breath. A flash of cold light descended on his neck, so fast that even the gods might have a hard time watching the strike.

"A little overkill I might say but you never know with these people, to think that he somehow managed to rob the Qia family. Pathetic what their standards have fallen too low."

Saying this he collected a golden satchel from inside the booth, chiding the man for his carelessness.

"If you wanted to something so badly you should have gotten a storage ring, then I wouldn't have been able to sense this from a 100 miles away"

As he was saying this he hauled the body back to his place with one hand, seemingly effortlessly. As he moved he hummed a song to the swaying of the body.

"*Another one bites the dust, and another one gone and another one gone. Another one bites the dust*"
