《djinn's child》chapter 5: traveler and shopping
Advertisement
As the morning sun rose I awoke to the sound of water running. As the door opened I saw Doran walk in with a rag on his eyes. "good morning Doran" I said while putting on shoes. "Oh good morning little Caz" Doran said sitting on his bed. "are you ok why are you covering your eyes?" I said while fixing the bed I slept on. "ah yeah I got water in my eyes" Doran said letting down his front hair. "oh what's the problem with water in your eyes" I said after giving him a confusing look. "oh I have really sensitive eyes that why I have the covered most the time" Doran said moving the rag from his eyes.
After I cleaned up we started to head down to the desk. "hello sir good morning" said the girl at the front desk. "hello miss well be back later" Doran said giving a wave to the girl at the front desk. "alright sir I'll see you later" said the girl giving us a wave back. "so are we gonna go to the traveler building first?" I asked Doran wondering if we can go shopping. "yes we are after we'll take a look around" Doran said as we got to the traveler building.
As we were about to enter I looked up at the builder and saw twenty floors all made of brick. when we entered the building i saw the same elf from yesterday. "hello sir I have your traveler cards" the elf said waving at us. "hello miss thank you for getting it done for us" Doran said walking up to the elf. "don't worry it is my job" the elf said while opening a drawer and pulled out to gold cards that seemed to look more like a lighter.
"here are your traveler cards" the elf said putting the cards on the desk. "As new members I have to explain how the traveler system works" the elf said pulling out a piece of paper. "ah alright thank you miss" Doran said grabbing the cards. "ok there are 3 tiers you are third tier and your son is first tier" the elf said pointing at one of the cards. "what is the difference in tiers" I asked as Doran handed me my card. "First tier can enter towns as long as there are not many tier two monsters tier three can go anywhere but they can be called on to deal with tier 4 monsters" the elf said showing a small list of towns. "would there be a problem if we went to a tier two town can my son enter with me" Doran said as he put his card in his clothes. "there wont be a problem as long as you're with him" the elf said pulling out two papers. "that's great thank you for the info miss" Doran said patting my head.

"I need you to fill out this paper and we need to take a picture of you" the elf said as she handed us two papers. "alright thank you well finish this up quick" Doran said handing me a pen and one of the papers. I had to write down my name, age, what combat you specialize in, and what you turned in as proof of hunting a monster. All the answers were easy to answer. "I'm finished filling out the paper" I said while handing the elf the paper. "I'm finished as well miss" Doran said handing his paper to the elf. As the elf looked over the papers she said "all right all that's left is a photo of you". The elf handed us the papers and pulled out a camera "who wants to go first" she said holding up the camera. "I'll go first" I said with a smile she held up the camera "ready" the elf said with a smile.
A light flashed and a picture came out of the camera "there you go" she said handing me the photo. "thank you" I said putting the picture with the paper. "your turn sir" the elf said holding the camera towards Doran. "alright miss take it any time" Doran said smiling. the flash of light happened again and the photo came out. "here you go sir" said the elf passing the photo to Doran. "now what do we do" Doran said holding the photo and paper. "pull out your card and open it and burn the papers" the elf said showing how to open the lighter part of the card.
As i opened the lighter part of the traveler card I burned the paper and the photo. "now that should be it now if you put your phone on the card it will show the paper and photo" the elf said cleaning up her desk. "thank you for the help miss we'll see you tomorrow" Doran said while we walked out the door. As we left the traveler building I asked Doran "can we go to the shopping area". Doran looked at me and said "I said we would so lets go" as we walked to the shopping district.
As we walked down the streets I saw the buildings made of wood and stone. The hay roofs were knitted together. As we neared the shopping district the first shop I saw was a armor shop. "can we stop by that armor shop Doran" I asked Doran pointing to the shop. "yes you do need some armor so that your wounds wound happen as often" he said while walking to the shop. When we entered the shop I saw the walls covered with paintings of armor. In lanes there were sets of armor of varies types.

"hello shop owner" Doran said while looking for the shopkeeper. From a separate room came out a old man cover in burns. "how can I help you today" the man said walking out to shake Doran's hand. "hello sir glad you're in today" Doran said as he shook the mans hand. "what type of armor are you looking for" the man said waling to the counter. "I'm looking for some light armor for my son" Doran said patting my head. "hello sir can you help me find some good armor" I said smiling at him. "I think I have some armor in your style" the man said walking to the corner of the shop. We followed him and found some light blue armor that seemed to be thin and looked to only cover the chest, shoulders, wrists, and a pair of boots that seemed light.
"this is perfect for him" Doran said looking at the armor. "I'm glad you like the armor I made it to small and this but for his age it should be perfect" The burned man said moving it to the counter. "how much will it cost for this armor set" Doran asked as we reached the counter. "it will be pretty pricy sir" the man said going behind the desk. "it's fine name your price for the armor" Doran said moving his bag from his side to the front of his waist. "It will cost twelve gold coins sir" he said writing down the price. "alright here you go sir" Doran said handing the man a pure white coin and two gold coins.
"ah thank you sir would you like him have try the armor on there is a changing room" the man said pointing to a door. "I'll try it on give me a moment" I said as I walked in the room the man pointed to with the armor. as I put the chest plate on under my white cloak, I put the shoulder armor over the the cloak, and the wrist armor slid on, and put on the boots. As I walked out of the room after putting the blue scarf back on. "It doesn't look bad on you little Caz" Doran said while doing a light clap. "how dose it fit" the man asked with a look of hope. "it fits great and I look great in it" I said while stretching.
"that's great glad it fits" said the man looking more relaxed. "well we'll get out of here thanks for the armor" Doran said as we walked out of the store. "thank you come again" the man said as we stepped out side. We continued walking down the street and saw a small stall selling meat in a a stick. "lets stop by and get some of that meat on a stick" Doran said with a smile. "alright it sounds good to me" I said looking at Doran with a smile. We walked up to the stand and smelled the delicious food.
"how much for four sticks" Doran said looking at the food. "oh that will be 4 iron coins sir" a young boy with short hair said. "alright here can't wait to try it" Doran said handing him 5 iron coins. "here you go sir in joy your food" the boy said handing us four meat on a stick. "here you go little Caz dig in" Doran said handing me to sticks of meat. as we bit into the meat we both smiled while walking down the shopping district. We saw all the stands and shops that were amazing. As we ate the meat we headed back to the star shot in.
After we got to the inn we were still happy about the food. "hello sir welcome back" said the girl at the desk as we entered the inn. "hello miss we're back" Doran said with a wave and smile. "how was your time out" the girl said while moving over a few papers. "it was good thank you for asking we're gonna go back to the room we'll see you tomorrow" Doran said while walking towards the hall. "good night sir sleep well" the girl said with a smile. "to you as well" Doran said while walking to our room..
As we entered the room I sat at the desk while Doran put his hair back and sat on his bed. "did you have fun today little Caz" Doran said looking at me while turning on the bed side lamp. "I did we became travelers, got some great armor, and we got some great food" I said thinking of the fun I had today. "be ready I'm gonna have you hunt tomorrow all day so you're ready for when we leave" he said as i laid down on my bed to go to sleep. "so tomorrow will be our last day in this town" I said looking at the roof. "yes but we'll stop by a ton of towns and city's and maybe we'll find who I'm looking for" Doran said looking at the window. "well ill go to sleep good night Doran" I said looking at Doran with a smile. "good night little Caz sleep well" he said as he started humming a song. As i fell asleep to the sound of Doran humming with a smile on my face.

The Adventures of Alan
What happens when a university professor somehow ends up in another world, where magic bends the laws of nature? Alan is, albeit unwillingly, about to find out. As a professor of physics, he has a decent understanding of how the world works, or so he likes to think. Armed only with his knowledge, Alan is thrown into a world very different from his own. In his new reality, he will meet both friends and foe, he will seek knowledge, he will build power, and perhaps he will even find love again? Follow Alan through his adventures, and find out for yourselves how he deals with the challenges thrown at him by a new world, while struggling with the issues brought with him from his old one. * Author’s note: A fair warning. This is the first time I’ve published anything, and basically the first time I’ve written anything more than mandatory school-stuff. The story will probably have inconsistencies, grammatical errors (not my native tongue, though that excuse is getting old), and potentially confusing (missing?) plot. I will naturally do my best to write something worth reading, but my main goal in writing this story is to have fun and explore the limits of my own creativity. My hope in publishing it here, is that I’ll reach someone who enjoy the story, and can push me forward towards writing more, as it is difficult at times to find the motivation to write just for myself. Additionally, I can’t really promise to have regular updates, as I have a full-time job that often likes to take the ‘full-time’ part literally, and a sporadic social life that occasionally surprises me (happy surprises mostly, so I shouldn’t complain). I’ll aim for once a week to start with, and take it from there. Happy reading! Cover photo by Jeff Hire (/photographer/gun4hire-58415), from https://freeimages.com/.
