Orion's lips twitched. "I didn't know you were such a bigshot. Should I expect fireworks when we enter the city?"
Selene giggled. "He might look impressive here, but in the places that truly matter, he's just another old fossil."
"Hmph." Eldric crossed his arms and looked out the window with a dignified snort, as if peasants like them couldn't possibly comprehend his greatness.
"Lucan," he called out, "take us to an inn. It's already evening. We'll rest here and continue tomorrow morning."
Orion's eyes lit up. "Then can we explore the city tonight, Grandpa?"
Eldric nodded. "Yes, but you'll go with Edgar."
"Sounds good," Orion replied without hesitation. "I don't have any anyway."
"Take Helena too," Selene added. "She knows the market better than Edgar. I'll give some Mana Crystals to Edgar, though probably only Copper, Silver, and Gold Coins are mostly used here. He will have to convert the Mana Crystals."
