[Hidden title]

"We are here," said Alfonso while looking at the big wall.

In front of him, was a huge wall made of granite. Alfonso was curious because this construction reminded him of another one on Earth.

"It's really similar to the Big Wall of Avila, although this one is taller. Making a rough appraisal it is more or less the same," though Alfonso.

Alfonso looked at his sides and analyzed the terrain of Tulip town. He found a lot of differences when compared with Wasteland Valley. The first one was the weather. Although Tulip town was cold, it wasn't comparable with Wasteland Valley. It is like comparing winter in EEUU and winter in Iceland.

The second thing that Alfonso noticed was the land. It was a flatland. It didn't have any kind of hills nearby, unlike Wasteland Valley which had a few.

"OPEN THE GATE! HIS MAJESTY IS BACK!" shouted one of the soldiers.

In that instant the soldier shouted, the gates made a *clank* *clank* sound and the huge door was opened. When Alfonso and the others entered, he was stunned.

"Sure enough, this town is like medieval towns on Earth, although it's more organized. It's like the ones before the fall of Constantinople," thought Alfonso.

The fall of Constantinople marked an after-and-before in the history of human kind.

"Like in every town on Leitol, Feudalism was the norm, however, instead of barter, they used the economic model of the Renaissance. It was quite interesting indeed," thought Alfonso. "Everyone knows the Medial Era as the Dark Era of Science- a lot of the discoveries of our ancestors were lost and we went back a few hundreds of years, scientifically speaking. It was at this time that the church was in their peak of power and gave birth to the Inquisition. That gives you a lot to think about, doesn't it?"

When looking at the sides, one could see merchants, shops, and every now and then, some "prophets" and "shamans".

"EVERYONE REPENT OF YOUR SINS AND BEG THE GODS FOR FORGIVENESS! HUMANS ARE NOTHING WITHOUT THE GODS!"

"ALL OF YOU! ALL OF YOU WILL GO TO HELL! ONLY I, WHO HAS CONFFESED HIS SINS AND LIVES FOR THE GODS, WILL LIVE! HAHAHAHAHA"

"I CURE EVERY ILLNESS! JUST TEN PIECES OF GOLD! I AM A CHAMPION OF THE GODDESS OF MEDICINE!"

Alfonso looked at this people with curiosity. After all, this didn't happen in Wasteland Valley. However, what stunned him the most was the amount of people.

"This is like a modern city. If I were to bet that for every person in Wasteland Valley there are, at least, ten people in Tulip, I am 99% sure that I would win that bet."

Destiny was a bitch. Alfonso was clear on this. Think about it. There are almost 40 something towns in all Leitol and who knows how many humans, but he had to reincarnate in the body of a loser prince in the worst town possible. How was that fair?

However, sometimes…destiny could become the best lover that you could ask for.

"Excuse me…. My lord, would you buy some bottles of juice? It can cure injuries!" Suddenly a small and trembling voice sounded out from the side of Alfonso.

When Alfonso looked down, he saw a young girl with dirty black hair and a white dress. This girl seemed to be roughly 16 to 18 years old- just a few years younger than Alfonso- and in her hand was a small basket case with 5 bottles in it. The liquid inside the bottles were orange.

Before Alfonso could answer a soldier came to his side and blocked his way.

"You lowly commoner! You dare to talk to a noble- you wanna die?!" shouted the soldier.

"I-I am so-sorry!" said the girl while trembling. She lowered her head.

The young girl obviously knew that she could be executed right on the sport if she offended a noble. However, she didn't have a choice. She had been trying to sell her medicine for 1 week already and nobody would but it. She was at the verge of dying from hunger. She had used the last of her wealth in buying the fruits to prepare this medicine, so she was betting everything in this last attempt, but it seemed that it was a failure…. Just as she was about to leave, a voice came from behind.

"Stop," said Alfonso.

The girl suddenly felt her heart beating like crazy. She had cold sweet on her back and she almost couldn't breathe.

"Did-did I offend him? I am… I am dead!" thought the girl.

"Please your majesty! Pardon my offences! Don't kill me!" shouted the girl while kneeling.

Alfonso looked at the girl and grabbed one bottle.

"How much?" asked Alfonso.

"Eh?" The girl was stunned.

"How much?" asked Alfonso again.

"Ah…eh….10-10 silver coins," said the girl without thinking.

"WHAT!? TEN SILVER COINS?! YOU DARE SCAM A NOBLE!" shouted another soldier.

"That girl sure has guts= to actually try to scam a noble! She actually asked for 10 silver coins just for one little bottle. She doesn't know how to write the word 'death,' " said one passer-byer.

"Yeah, with ten silver one could buy, at the very least, food for two days. However, she wants to sell a small bottle for ten silvers? Hehe."

"Such a shame. Blood is going to be spilled so early."

More and more passer-byers stood at one side looking at the scene. Although, it was not common, sometimes an idiot would make her or himself get killed like this.

"Ten silvers huh," said Alfonso while looking at the bottle.

"Don't worry sir, I will immediately punish this little whore. You don't have to dirt your hands," said two soldiers while grabbing the young girl.

"Did I say that you could move?" asked Alfonso coldly.

"Eh…. No…but…?" asked one soldier.

"Let her go," said Alfonso.

The soldiers backed up and saw Alfonso take one gold coin from his pocket. The soldiers were immediately stunned. In this world the most common coin was the silver coin. One gold coin equalled one hundred silver coins; one hundred silver coin was usually the salary of a soldier for a month. So the fact that Alfonso could casually take one gold coin from his pocket stunned the soldiers. Just for a moment though after that, they remembered the identity of Alfonso.

"Just what is he planning?" thought Felio who was looking at this scene from the sides.

"You say that this medicine can cure right?" asked Alfonso.

"Ye-yeah," said the girl while looking at Alfonso.

"Okay," said Alfonso. He immediately opened the bottle and toke a long sip. He emptied the bottle in one go.

Alfonso didn't say anything and just closed his eyes. After some time, he opened his eyes and gave the gold coin to the girl. Then he whispered something to the girl. He took the other bottles and mounted his horse with Demeter.

"Let's go," said Alfonso.

The soldiers were surprised but nevertheless didn't stay long and continued their journey.

The girl just looked at Alfonso from the distance. Then she remembered the words of Alfonso and grabbed the gold coin, running from the place in fear that other people would have some thoughts towards the gold coin.

"What a lucky girl- to actually make a small fortune from just selling that crappy bottles."

"Maybe that noble takes a like to that girl?"

"Who knows…shall we follow that girl, brother?"

"Forget it. If that noble indeed took a liking to that girl, then if we touched her, we are as good as dead."

One after another, the commoners went on their way. Some indeed had some thought of robbing that girl, however, they didn't want to make that huge bet. They couldn't afford to make a noble angry after all.

..........................................…..

The girl ran for some time, and when she was sure that nobody was following her, she went to a nearby old woman.

"Silvia, give me all the fruits that you have here!" said the girl.

"Huh? Since when did you have that kind of money? Shoo! Shoo! You are scaring the customers."

"Look at this," said the girl while taking the gold coin.

"Woah! Just who did you rob to actually have that kind of money?"

"Stop talking crap, are you selling or not?!" demanded the girl with impatience.

"Sure, sure, just take everything- take the carriage with you. Take it as a small gift," said Silvia with a smile from ear to ear.

"What a lucky day!" thought Silvia.

After the girl bought all the fruits, she brought the huge carriage to her home and started to make more bottles like crazy.

As to why she was doing this…. It is because of the last words that Alfonso said to her.

"I want more. Come to the Lord's manor tomorrow. I want 100 of them and I will buy it at 15 silver each."

Just thinking of this made the girl, who was at the verge of dying just a few minutes ago, feel replenished with energy.

"What a kind noble!" thought the girl.

.............................................

"Little Al! I am proud of you! You are a kind person," Said Demeter with a warm smile.

"Yeah, I am impressed. You actually bought ten useless bottles. Don't tell me that you took a liking to that girl?" said Felio with a smile on his face.

Artemis didn't say anything. However, on her face was a small smile.

Alfonso didn't say anything.

"Kindness? I am not that good of a person," thought Alfonso.

Alfonso wasn't a saint- he didn't wish to be a saint and he certainly couldn't help every single person in distress. He was only going to buy a bottle and that was it. However, a notification from the system stunned him.
