Omega Summoner

"The Vermillion Bird already sent word of our arrival. The only problem now would be how to travel to the Imperial City of Hinomoto. We are a very easy conspicuous group that even I find us a bit odd here despite the eastern continent having different races as well." Levin Cloud stated.

"We can use Polymorph, right? Adrian asked.

All of four of them then laughed a bit as they actually forgot that they were using this skill full on when they hid themselves from the public eye. They did not do it now because they are quite well-known and that they no longer need to hide.

"Even if we used Polymorph, the fact that we are traveling would still be a problem as encountering something would just expose us immediately. We cannot fight that much in a polymorphed state after all and word travels fast here in the eastern continent." Peridot stated as there should already be news of their appearances in the southern part of the eastern continent.

"You are right as vanishing now would mean that we have left the area. We are not even sure if all the eyes that are observing us are friendly or waiting for us to lower our guard." Kabrakan stated as he could feel the stares of numerous people that hide in the crowd.

"We should head to that tea house then." Adrian stated as he pointed at a tea house where there is a small mark of a black butterfly.

The four of them then entered the tea house and they could still feel the gazes of others following them until they went inside. Adrian then bowed to the server that greeted them and showed the token he had discretely. The server noticed the token and immediately escorted them to a special section within the tea house.

The three are stunned that Adrian is actually treating them to such a luxurious area within the tea house. Even though the food is only virtual, the prices in hot places are still astronomical. The high prices are due to the fact that there is a hidden benefit in food which could randomly increase one's stats.

Players right now are having difficulty grinding for stats as some are already in high levels. The only thing that could bypass that would be eating special meals. In fact, one famous chef player that is said to have the ability to increase the stat gain of players by one point each day is selling like crazy. That one stat point could be continuously accumulated per day per player.

"Please head inside. The mistress will meet you after a few minutes." The server stated as she bowed gracefully and headed out of the luxurious room.

"You did not say that you are treating us. I bet this place is very expensive. Look at those decorations! They look like they would cost at least a thousand gold each." Levin Cloud stated.

"I am flattered that you think so dear guest but the ornaments were only bought using one silver coin each." An alluring female voice stated as a fully dressed hostess came out. The most striking feature that she has is her hair that is tied using a butterfly hairpin.

"I greet the great benefactor of the Heihudie clan." The hostess stated as she bowed deeply towards Adrian. She even used both her hands and forehead to touch the ground to show him honor.

"I am flattered but you do not need to show excessive respect as it is too much for me." Adrian stated as the hostess looked like she was older than him.

"I am in awe of the benefactor's humility. This was the custom told us when we meet you as per the orders of our head mistress." The hostess answered.

"Oh ho! So…this is what you like huh!" Peridot teased.

"Never mind then. I am here because I need your aid to get to the Imperial City of Hinomoto without making the eyes watching us know that we have left or at least stall them long enough before they noticed something." Adrian stated.

"I see. There have been many eyes ever since you have entered the Vermillion City. We have a passageway that leads outside of the city that the benefactor can use. If you use that then you can leave undetected by prying eyes." The hostess stated.

"The only problem are the ones that have locked onto our aura then." Adrian stated.

"To think that they would use such skilled trackers! As expected of the benefactor!" The hostess stated with great enthusiasm as if it was a moment of great celebration.

"We are getting tracked using our auras!? How come I cannot feel it?" Peridot stated in shock as she was trained to sense if she was being followed using her aura.

"They are very skilled since they could also hide from the Vermillion Bird, but I bet the latter just does not care as they are not doing anything bad. I felt the spell stick to us the moment we went outside of the bell tower. It is honestly such a creepy feeling like small bugs are crawling all over me." Adrian stated.

The hostess is shocked by the benefactor's great sensitivity as only great masters can feel the way he is feeling right now. She excused herself for a few moments as she went to fetch the items that will help the benefactor. The hostess returned carrying a purple box with an insignia of a purple butterfly instead of a black butterfly.

"I have brought an item that might help the benefactor with his predicament for a small price of one hundred gold." The hostess stated.

"Deal." Adrian stated.

"You do not even know what it is." Levin Cloud exclaimed.

"They have never presented me with a bad deal before. The fact that she could solve our professional problems with a hundred gold is already a steal." Adrian stated.

"That is already a great discount dear guest as the normal price for these are five hundred gold each." The hostess stated as she opened the box.
