Chapter 164 - Information Shop?
"I see…"
Joana was disheartened a little by his reply.
She did not expect that Leon would refuse her offer. After all, when someone said they would think about it, it's at least 90% guaranteed that they will agree.
"You can keep that kidney for yourself Mr. Leon, I don't need it anyway. But, may I know the reason why you refused? Was it because I'm not attracted or alluring enough for your taste?" she said with her head lowered down, almost like she was disappointed in herself.
Ban was taken aback by what she asked.
He did not consider or think about it before ,but now, he once again inspected Joana's body. He now has a slight amount of knowledge to assess her 'qualifications'.
At least, he now knows what kind of woman he likes, based on the books he read recently.
And now that he looked at her closely, he could say that she's definitely a gorgeous woman with a sexy body. Not to mention her current expression that looks like she was disappointed…
Ban could feel a slight tremble deep inside him upon looking at that scene. At the same time, his 'sword' that was once in slumber was now starting to awaken slowly.
Unfortunately, before the mighty sword could awaken, Ban decided to halt it's advance as he looked away and said, "It's just not my priority at this time…"
"And besides, unless you tell me honestly what you want in return for offering something like this, I won't be doing that 'exercise' with you!" he said calmly after recovering from the momentary distraction.
Unless she's a hoe that will have sex with anyone as long as she like them or if they can afford it, Ban knew that she won't be offering that kind of offer if she wasn't forced by some circumstances. He was curious what kind of circumstances she's facing that she's willing to go that far for it.
Joana could only sigh. It was regretful but she won't force it. She only offered that because she was afraid of him ruining her plan anyway.
"I'm sorry Mr. Leon, I can't tell you about it until I'm sure that you will agree to it." She said regretfully.
"Well, 'exercising' with you does not mean I will agree either. Let's just forget about this…"
"Alright, no problem…" Joana replied.
'I just hope that you won't be a hindrance to my revenge!' Joana thought firmly.
Ban kept the rabbit kidney inside his Dimensional Storage as he prepared to leave, however he recalled something so he turned his body towards Joana and asked, "By the way, can I still sell the Beast parts that I have here in the future?"
"Sure, no problem… As long as I'm still here, I'll buy them all from you!" Joana replied with a smile.
Ban tilted his head after hearing that, 'What does that mean?'
He pondered over it but as he could not understand what she was implying, he just decided to not think too much about it.
Ban nodded his head towards her, "Before I go, can I ask if you know a place where I can find information about rare items and rare Beasts easily?"
"Can't you find their information around the Adventurers Market?" she asked.
"There is information but they are just baseless information gathered from gossip, I want something that has at least 50% accuracy."
"I know a shop, but whether you can get the information is all up to you!" Joana said.
"Where?"
"I'll just bring you there, I also don't expect another customer will come today as well so it's fine," Joana said.
"Alright, thank you!"
"Oh right, regarding that request you said before, I know someone that might need that kind of service that you were offering." Joana turned around and said.
"Who?"
"It's Rendal, the number one Blacksmith of Eagle City. It looks like his Monster was also having some issues, it no longer eats and no longer helps on his forging, so the number of items he could make has been reduced by more than a half due to it."
'The one who made the Twin Baton?' Ban thought.
"Alright, let's go there after we're done with the shop you were talking about," he said.
"Well, the thing is, Rendal isn't around right now, he said that he already has an appointment from a renowned Monster Doctor today as I don't think it's possible for you to meet him now." Joana said with an apologetic tone.
"Don't worry Mr. Leon, he also said that he will wait for you tomorrow and if his monster still isn't cured during that time, then it will be your chance.'
"Alright, no problem!'
After Joana was done closing her store, the two of them finally started walking towards the shop that she was referring to.
Some time later, Joana entered inside an abandoned building and when they exited on the other part of the building, they arrived in an area where people or more precisely, Adventurers are densely packed.
From what Ban observed so far, this area seems to be the center of the Adventurers Market as this place was more populated than the ones he visited before. He was even surprised that there was still another area aside from the ones he visited.
Ban observed carefully and noticed that everyone was minding their own business, even though it was densely packed, it was actually not that noisy.
Sellers and buyers were having their own discussions quietly, almost like they were afraid of disturbing the dense yet calm surroundings.
He also noticed that almost all of the customers were wearing a mask or something that can hide their identity, just like him. Some of them were even wearing strange costumes just like the guy at the side of the road who was wearing a hairy stick costume.
Seeing that Leon was curiously looking around, Joana could not help but ask in a low voice, "You haven't been here before, Mr. Leon?"
