《Arden's place》Chapter 8

“So are we on something like the Americas of a different world?”
After Arden and Matt had breakfast, they were walking towards the Adventurers' guild to attend the training. Meanwhile, Matt was talking about the book he read in the library yesterday.
“Yeah man, I couldn't believe it when I first read it. It was 112 years ago that they discovered this continent. Or rather, that they can discover?”
"What do you mean?"
“The author talks about a kind of black cloud. This black cloud encircled the entire continent, then suddenly disappeared 112 years ago, all races flocked here to get a share of this new land, and I saved the best part for last.”
“There aren't only 3 races dude, there are about a dozen more races, I guess we're just in a section where there aren't any other races"
Since Arthur and Matt had come to Petra, they had only seen the elven, human, and Dwarf races. Arden asked curiously when he brought up the subject of which Matt Arden was completely ignorant.
“What other races are there?”
“I couldn't find the definition of some of them, after all, the book did not fully explain, but a few were understandable.”
Matt paused a bit to fuel his excitement. Seeing the knowledge-hungry expression in Arden's eyes, he continued.
“Minators, centaurs, snake-people, Mermaids, but I think there are also males. I couldn't quite understand what the others looked like.”
As their conversation deepened, they realized that they already arrived in front of the Adventurers' guild.
The two entered the building, greeted the receptionist lady who had registered them with the Adventurer's guild, and then proceeded to the training ground behind the building.

There was no requirement to undergo training to join the Adventurer's guild. But no matter which adventurer you ask, he would say "if you have the money, join it". This was because the death rate of new adventurers was around %50 percent. This being the case, the high officials of the guild provided the new members with the opportunity to receive training. Hoping these training will help them in their journey.

Those who gave these trainings were the team that accepted the task opened by the guild.Those who gave these trainings were the team that accepted the task opened by the guild. That's why Arden was surprised when he couldn't see Edward, who was teaching yesterday.
“Hello all of you, I'm Sacha White lions scout. I reached level 26 after our last mission. And today I'm going to talk to you about tracking and plants that you can find in the wild that will make good money.”
Arden studied Sacha. It was clear from every voice that he was nervous. She didn't seem to have much to do with the crowds. But she continued to speak.
“Well, you have booklets with some herbs we prepared for you behind you, everyone, come and get one”
When Arden turned around, he saw a row of small hand-sized booklets stacked on top of each other. He went and got one for himself.
“As I wrote in the book, not all plants are collected in the same way, some plants are poisonous, so when you find such a poisonous plant, don't try to pluck it with your hands. First of all, if you don't have someone on your team who knows their spells like [Safe Hand] or [protection]. First of all … "
As the lesson continued, Arden turned his attention to the booklet in his hand. The uses of plants were listed in the book. While he was browsing through the pages of the Book, he found several herbs used to make magical potions that healed Matt's leg.
After Sacha finished talking about plants, the subject of the lesson was changed to tracking. He talked a lot about tracking. By the end of class, the sun was directly overhead.
Arden looked around and saw Matt chatting with several of the attendees.

“Hey Matt, see you tonight”
He didn't want to interrupt Matt's speech. In the end, he would need a team to join the missions. The people he met here could be his teammates in the future. Besides, Arden had work to do. He had to go to the land he bought with Mr. Alex for the first time.
—-------
Alex and Arden were examining the site where the inn was to be built. With the city walls gone, Arden saw his surroundings clearly for the first time. In front of them was a huge and clean lake. To the north were snow-capped mountains.
“I didn't know the view was this great”
“You are a very strange man, Mr. Arden.”
"How so"
“You gave 10 gold to a land you have never seen.”
“I guess you're right” Arden chuckled and said.
Events had developed very quickly. And the possibility of realizing the dream he had hidden in his heart had led him to make rash decisions. Arden realized that he was lost in thought, and Mr. He turned to Alex and spoke.
“You got the permissions, didn't you? When can we start?”
"Yes, everything is ready, we can start tomorrow after you approve the final plans"
Alex took Arden to the carriage they had used to get here, and together they began to study the plans. When Arden saw the view, he decided to add 2 floors with terraces overlooking the mountains and the lake. After making a few more minor changes, they decided on the final version.
“Mr. Alex, do you know a place where I can buy the furniture?"
Arden wanted to settle this problem that was occupying his mind as soon as possible. The inn was supposed to open in 2 weeks. But he still hadn't taken care of the furniture.
“Oh, I was going to tell you about that too. A close friend of mine is doing this job. You can meet all the needs of the Inn from there. I am sure will give you a good price”
“Is there any possibility of arranging a meeting today? I want everything to be ready for the opening”
“Of course, when we go to the city, let's go to his shop, and it would be better if I introduce you.”
Alex and Arden got into the carriage they used to come to the estate and started heading towards Petra. The roads were in worse condition than the roads Arden used to enter the city with the caravan. But a road had been opened for fishing and picnic purposes, and at least the carriages could be used on this road.
Their journey to Petra took 5-6 minutes. As soon as the carriage entered the city, it headed for the north side of the city. The northern side of the city was the part of the shops where the production enterprises were located. Many blacksmiths, furniture makers and tailors were here. Arriving at the shop Alex was talking about, the carriage stopped at the side of the road.
