Chapter 17- What are you doing

Klaus

After I had them all taken for breakfast in a local restaurant, I took them three in a toy shop, it wasn't really a toy shop but rather an antique, there are wooden toys and dolls that are made as a small maniquen to become a design model, Olivia had taken an interest in it grabbing the doll that is skinny and had a long hair, it has pretty blue eyes with dazzling dress and an extra closet

"20 gin of gold!!" She said, she pulled her wallet and counted 4 gin of gold coin

"Want that?" I asked

"I do, but Correne has my money that dad gave!!" She frowned

"Why don't you ask me!" Her face lit up, her green orbs sparkling unto me

"Can I have them then!!" I handed her a purse full of gold coins, she looked up astonished

"This is too many!!"

"Go to Owen and Serene, tell them to get what they want while I look around!!" She ran away from me

I myself strolled inside the antique to see what's up and saw traces of pretty horse shoe, they are old but is currently sparkling, there are hints of hidden rust and lines for me to predict that this has been polished fresh, they are old but beautiful and secured, it looks perfect for Valerian, I wanted it so bad that I tried to open the glass box

"Oh- sir, the horse shoe is not just for sale to anyone!!" I pulled my hands away and stared at it

"You said not just to anyone? Why is that?" I asked

"It's from an old smith who once had a stallion, he just brought it here for a public display!!" He explained before smiling, he is quite sincere but I want the horse shoe so bad

"Who is this smith?" I asked

"He's just an old warrior, if you really fancy it come back tomorrow morning, he'll come by to collect what has been taken from his goods!!" He said and gave me a little card that has their shop seal in it

"Why do you like that horse shoe, there are other things that you'll find valuable- it's too big for your horse sir-"

"I have a young male stallion!!" I cut his sentence

"H-how! The smith said he got one of the few last stallions!!"

"You don't understand, I have one, just lazy to come along and parade himself in the streets!!" His face expression didn't seem pleased

"Well, that smith is really old and grumpy, maybe if you could come with your stallion he'll consider letting you buy his horse shoe!"

"Deal-" his face fell and brows curling

"Then it's a deal young master!!" I nod and walked away from him, he pulled the box away to a private room and gave a look of 'Im serious'

"We got what we want look!!" Owen came to me, I turned my head down and saw my little brother and the other two girls coming over

"Good, let's go!!" I said and went to the counter

*****

I sent them both back home while I loit around town looking for armors and good stuff that I can use, when dad come, there will be another event at the palace, I'm gonna be one of the candidate for the Princess's husband selection, I'm gonna need to get ready in meeting the crown prince, I have a lot of doubt over that jackass who did not took care of this country, as per the rumor in my past, he said to have told all the council while drunk that he never wanted to become a ruler, despite having all the power he wanted to run away, it was a scandal we outh to keep in our mind that this country was never really taken care of and the officials are the same who has greed within their heart, a dragon will spawn to destroy this country

I stumbled upon a small library and went inside alone, Gavin went fishing cos I told told him to since were near the sea, I can't leave him bored so I let him go

As soon I got there I searched, there is an aura that my power is looking for

"May I help you sir?" Asked the lady, she was either scared to approach or too happy to serve me

"I'm looking around?"

"Which book!!" She smiled nonchalant while swinging her body left and right

"I would like to take a look first!!" I said before walking away, I felt her follow me from two rows to where we were so I looked back with a cold eyes

"I would like to be alone miss!!" She frowned and left with her head down without a word

I went row to row playing hide and seek to what my power is seeking...

"What is it!!" I was irritated looking at one thing to the other, I can't even use my ability here cos there are people everywhere

As soon as I stepped unto something, I felt a presence beneath me, I looked down to my boots and fell on my knees to feel what's below this wooden floor, it's quite since were at the back, I rolled the carpet and witnessed a little door, under this little path must be something my power is seeking, but why? This is the first time ever after I practiced many times for my power to cooperate with me

There is a lock but it looks old, as soon as I touched the lock it opened on it's own?

"What!" I said before opening the little door and saw a bag, it's a bag containing something beneath, it's a little box as big as a music box and there is a book next to it

I put it on my cape to keep it tucked before going away

"Did you find something sir?" The lady asked sweetly resting her arms on the counter

"Hmm, nope, The book I'm looking for isn't here!!" I said and looked at the candies beside her

"But I would like to get some of those!!" I said pointing my eyes on a jar full of candy

"You can actually have them, it's free sir!!" She pulled a paper bag and packed at least half of it before coming out to give them to me

"Here you go!!"

"Thanks, here!!" I put 5 gin on the table!!"

"Oh- it's free!!"

"It's not, see that!!" I pointed on the sign and smiled before going out

After coming out I found myself buying a bag on side market to put whatever materials I got before walking towards the sea, I didn't call out but whistled, he knows my whistle thus looked back with a wide smile in his face, he look so astonished with a big bucket of fish and crabs

"How did he do that?!!" I was only gone for an hour, he also set up bonfires for lunch and started sticking fish to eat

*Enjoying?* He nod and slammed the bucket to soothe me

*Good job, I'll grill, you go back!!* He nod before going back to the water, he was actually using spear instead of a rod and targeting fishes that are resting near the shore... I just hope he won't bring some shark later
