《Arden's place》Chapter 4
Advertisement
Opening an inn was not a sudden thought in Arden's mind. He had this plan in mind even before he was teleported to this strange world against his will. But the circumstances he was in, especially the loss of his father at the age of 16, kept this a dream.
But the money they had taken from the bandits had brought back this longing that he had hidden in his heart.
“Thanks for the tea, Mr. alex”
Arden was sitting in the President's room to talk price with the head of the workers' guild. Although the room was not very small, the tools and equipment in the room made the room look smaller than it was. These tools could have been placed in a different location, but the Guild master seemed to deliberately want these tools to be in view.
“Haha, it doesn't matter, my cousin knows an elven trader, this tea is one of the latest from the elven lands”
Alex was a person in his mid-50s. Despite his age, his hair was thick and black except for a few strands. He had a very muscular build. It was obvious that he had worked in the construction business for many years.
“Mr. Arden, how can we help you as a workers guild?” he said.
“As a matter of fact, I am planning to build a building for the place I will buy from land sales, I wanted to get a price for it”
“Huh, outside the walls?”
"Where exactly is it? if it is too far, the costs may increase and what kind of building are you thinking of?
“Although I am not entirely sure, I plan it to be in the area by the lake. As for the building, I think it is a 2-storey 30-room inn, although I do not have any plans”

“Hmm, if we don't go overboard with the design it will be between 25-35 gold”
The price he heard made Arden think. If everything went according to plan, he could have the inn of his dreams with the money in hand. Arden stood up to leave, thinking it was rude to steal Alex's time as nothing was certain.
“Thanks for the tea Mr.Alex I'll stop by to talk in more detail when everything is finalized”
“You are always welcome Mr. Arden”
Arden left the Workers' guild and started walking towards the pool, where they had agreed to meet Matt.
As he approached the pool, he saw Matt sitting on the edge of the pool waiting for him.
“Hey matt, how did things go in the Adventurers guild”
Matt took a card from his pocket and held it up to Arden's face.
“I joined my friend, I am joining the training team 3 days later”
“Congratulations, food is on you”
"Of course, what did you do, are you still determined to open an inn"
“If all goes according to plan, we will be getting our new home very soon, my friend”
Ardem couldn't help his smile.
“Then you're on the drinks, by the way, can you do something to the beer quality when you open your inn, all drinks like dishwater,” said Matt.
"Let's go to the inn, my stomach is ringing," said Arden
Contrary to the time the two had arrived at the town square, they had arrived at the inn held by Mr.kurt in 15 minutes.

On the contrary, the 2-day waiting period passed rather quickly, especially when there was a huge city to explore in front of them.
Arden and matt primarily wanted more detailed information about that leveling system.
The reason they wanted know this lay in the class they won on the first day.

Once they achieved this class, the speeches of the bandits around them changed from strange sounds to meaningful sentences.
But the most interesting thing was that this did not seem like a situation that only happened to them. When they joined the caravan, they definitely understood that everyone in this world was included in this leveling system.
While they were in the caravan, they could not investigate this matter in detail, as there was a risk that others would find out where they came from. But there was a library in the city, and when they found a new source where they could get information without asking anyone, they made the library their home, the entrance fee of which was 1 copper.
“This is crazy”
“It's like we've fallen into a game,” Arden said.
“Yeah it's a poorly made game, I wish it was a game with a status window or something”
Matt's eyes lit up as he had an idea.
“Status!” Matt shouted suddenly.
Arden looked towards him, thinking that Matt had discovered something.
“What”
Matt looked around, obviously disappointed.
"At least I tried, man," he said, raising his hands.
“I think we have the same system as those who live here.”
“We can only level up while asleep, did you level up after the first day?” said arden
“No, maybe I need to finish some missions as an adventurer”
They heard footsteps coming towards them as the two continued to talk animatedly.
*tap tap
"Gentlemen, please lower your voice or I will have to take you out"
“Sorry Mrs. Delvi We were just leaving”
"That would be nice"
Realizing that they had angered the librarian, Arden hurriedly packed his things. They apologized again on their way out.
"What will we do now?" said Matt.
They were two blocks from the town square. And life was flowing around them at full speed.
Arden looked up at the position of the sun. The sun was signaling that it was past noon.
“Let's go to the auction room, we don't want to miss it, we don't have a watch to tell the time,” Arden said.
“It was pretty bad that our phones were running out of battery.”
They both had their phones on them when they got here, but when they were caught by the bandits, all they had was a trophy to the bandits. Fortunately Mr. Kurt had returned his belongings. Both of their phones were back in their hands undamaged.
“I don't think we'll be getting electricity anytime soon, man,” Arden said.
After a short journey by watching the surroundings, they arrived in front of the building where the auction would be held. Contrary to Arden's expectation, there was no crowd filling the front of the building. It was as if everything was in its normal process. Arden wondered if he had gotten the days mixed up. And he walked towards the building.

Naruto: The Ember Tomorrow
Synopsis: I enjoyed my job. I loved my life. I truly did not wish to die, but fate had other plans in store. Reborn into the body of Sasuke Uchiha just after the massacre of his clan, will I be able to forge a better path in this world of blood and death? Author's Note: This is a Naruto Isekai. I do not own Naruto nor am I making any monetary profit off of this fiction. It is purely for fun and growing my own skills as an author. This story will have many elements of the Naruto anime obviously, but there will be twists and turns. I don't much care for sticking too closely to canon. The fic will also delve somewhat into philosophy as the protagonist was a professor of such before his transmigration. I've marked the content tags of Gore, profanity, sexual content, and traumatizing content to allow myself the freedom to write as needed, but am unlikely to be excessively explicit in any of these areas; still, better to have the tag and the freedom as needed. Anyways, I hope you enjoy and feedback is always welcome.

I, Mor-eldal: The Necromancer Thief
As a budding little necromancer, I soon discovered that the world of city people is complicated. When my master kicked me out of the cave, he warned me not to talk about my “dark” magic, because people here don't like the undead.

In the Black Dagger brotherhood, I learn a lot of things, such as illusionist magic, which turns out to be quite handy to survive in this maze of streets: in the Cat Quarter, we have thugs of all kinds that are best avoided. But we also have good people, goodhearted “gwaks”, as we say around here. Little did I know that I would soon be caught up in an infamous traffic that would entangle my life even more. With a mix of lighthearted adventure and picaresque, this story narrates the hectic life of a good-spirited street child and his companions in a medieval urban fantasy setting with some nineteenth-century influences. Updates Mondays and Fridays. This is a Creative Commons By work. It is a translation of a trilogy I wrote in Spanish between 2017 and 2018.
