"So COOL!!!" At the moment, Michael was flying on a pegasus behind Gaya. Because of Gaya's previous experience flying the pegasus, she rode it while Michael sat behind.
But that didn't stop him from being extremely happy. His one hand was on Gaya's shoulder to maintain his balance while with the other hand. He constantly tried to grab the fluffy clouds even though he knew clouds are made of water vapor and dust particles in the sky.
"For god's sake, human, you can't catch the clouds! You're going to fall and die if you keep trying" she screamed and elbowed him in the gut.
"Hey, Gaya!" because of the wind resistance, he had to shout.
"How much does this pegasus cost? I need one!" Pegasus were horses with wings and the most common color of these noble creatures was pure white. They were intelligent creatures that could understand the orders of the owner and were protected by a special spell that prevented the riders from stealing them.
Hence, the pegasus taxi owner didn't need to travel with who hired it but simply sit in his office and let the pegasus finish its route and come back.
However, if the riders had no experience flying on pegasus, the pegasus owner would provide one with experience but that would cost additional cost. Since Gaya had the experience, Michael didn't pay this cost but let her fly the pegasus.
"You can't, if you want one, you have to get permission from the four kings of Elon continent"
"Seriously?! Why?"
"I don't know, it has been a common law of Elon since forever "
"Fuck them, I'm planning to make a dragon my pet and fly on it" Ever since he found out that this world has dragons, he couldn't wait to get his hands on a dragon baby or a grown dragon.
"Make a dragon your pet? You're one crazy mother fucker, you know that!" Gaya shouted and now, she had grown quite familiar with his grand ideas and plans.
He would have bought one from the system if the price wasn't in the millions.
"We're going to land, hold tight!" she giggled evilly as the warning beep sound in his mind went crazy. She galloped the pegasus and turned the pegasus to do a barrel roll in the mid-air. Michael's reflexes were outstanding therefore when the moment the warning sound rang in his head, he wrapped his hands around her waists and held onto her tightly.
"Bastard! Get your hands off of me!" she didn't expect him to act quickly or wrapped his hand around her waist. She wanted to scare him off but the situation turned against her favor.
"Do it again!" He already enjoyed the ride tremendously but the last part of him touching her waist was icing on the cake.
On the contrary to his demand, she stopped barrel rolling and landed the pegasus on the ground.
"You perverted bastard!" the moment her feet touched the ground, she shouted at him as he waved her off.
"What did you expect? Me falling down from the sky? Just be glad that held onto your waist" she quickly covered her chest like she was naked when she looked at where he was looking at.
Neighhhh!
The pegasus beside them neighed and took off leaving them behind at the outskirts of the marketplace
Erected on the light side of Bredia, Bradford was a town led by Baron Totonk. This town wasn't built by a mountain by accident, as it has ancestral grounds, which was of great importance to the people of Bradford and its success.
The town itself looked imposing. With its spruce wood rooftops, limestone walls, and silent mountain range, Bradford had a pleasing atmosphere.
Bradford had a booming economy, which was mainly supported by mining, baking, and wine brewing. But their biggest strengths was the reason for Michael to be here, Alchemy.
Despite its strengths and weaknesses, Bradford was most likely headed towards a gracious future under the leadership of Baron Totonk. But this remains to be seen.
Despite their rough landing, people didn't pay mind to Gaya and Micheal as they continued to do what they were doing. Compared to the River town, the people around Michael seemed healthy and clean. Most ladies wore at least one jewel on their body and occasionally, he could see ladies who had armed escorts, lavish jewels, and wore fancy robes.
"These must be noble ladies" The noble ladies slightly looked like Roman noble ladies in the Spartacus television show he watched on earth. Obviously, Michael took a few peaceful minutes to enjoy the hot ladies and girls on the streets which frustrated Gaya as he never looked at her like he's staring at these noble ladies now.
"Shall we move now? Or do you need another hour to finish eye banging them?" she pitched his ears and interrupted his eyes from feasting on the beauties.
Through the bustling streets of Bradford, both of them passed many food stalls, bakeries, and various other stores. For a second, he felt like he was back in the streets of Los Angeles back on earth.
"Wow, there are only two alchemy stores" After finishing checking out all the stores on both sides of the street, Michael realized that Bradford only has two Alchemy stores owned by two and one-star alchemists. Of course, the shop keeper in those stores weren't Alchemists but just salespersons.
"Hey, look, this building is on sale" He and Gaya came before a newly built building next to a bakery and jewelry. The building had two floors and huge glass windows that almost made the inside of the building transparent.
"Good condition and location. Because of the jewelry, we can draw the attention of nobles quickly, come let's go see the owner of the building "
"Hey, is that Ghost?"
"Yeah, it seems like him"
"Who's that girl with him?"
"Can we get an autograph?"
Seeing that Michael had stopped, some of the people in the crowd recognized him.
The people who had seen him stopped, and kept watching him from afar. He entered the door and saw a bald-headed man wearing golden robes sitting in the rather empty building. He was meditating and hearing the footsteps, he opened his eyes.
"How can I help you two?"
"I saw the sign outside, I'd like to buy this building, state your price" the man stood up and rubbed his shaved chin for a second.
"Young man, my price is not cheap, forgive me for being blunt but you or your friend here don't seem very rich to me" Since Gaya said that at most, a building would cost 25,000 gold coins therefore he didn't have to worry about the cost as he had 30,000 gold coins plus 10,000 gold coins he got from Hart's space ring.
"Alright, 20,000 gold coins, non-negotiable" Michael looked at Gaya as she gave a nod of approval indicating he's not ripping them off.
The shopkeeper had built this store using most of his savings to open a gem business. But his son became a father and his wife was urging him to leave Bredia to go live with his son. Therefore, he decided to sell this building and because he used most of his savings, he wanted to get most of his coins back, hence he stated a high price which left him with no buyers.
However, Gaya knew a 5-star Alchemist would earn 20,000 gold coins with a couple of pills, so she had no problem buying this place.
"I'll take it" Michael nodded and ordered the system to stack 20,000 gold coins in front of him.
He gave the gold coins to the shopkeeper who was quite surprised but he quickly took the coins into his space ring. The shopkeeper then gave him a contract and in a few seconds, the deal was done.
"Now we have a building, let's go shopping for the pill ingredients"
