Large amounts of slow information started bombarding his brain. Thankfully, he had the spiritual sea, so he could handle this amount of information. 

The quantity of information alone broke through the focus mode he thought was under control. Out in the streets, he had to practice it again.

It took him only a few minutes now, but he managed to tone down his sense. The first thing he got a handle on was Time. Once that was under his control, the others would slowly come down as well. 

The next two were the visual sense and the auditory sense. Being able to see and hear less was a blessing for him right now. 

He then took care of the feelings, taste, and smell. After that, he was back to being a regular human once again. 

Well, that was a lie. Even after ignoring all the senses, there was still information that would skip to him from time to time. Like the time suddenly slowing down, or sense of his skin suddenly feeling very hot under the sun. 

His cousin had told him it would take a while, and it looked like it was certainly going to take that long.

Finally, once the focus mode was under control, Alex walked onto the street. The first thing he did was get a map of the city. It only cost him a few silver coins, and it told him the list of all the major buildings in the city.

He scoured through the map and saw exactly where the auction house was. The auction house he was looking for was on the southern side of the town, a few hundred meters outside of the royal palace's gate. 

'That's a little far away,' he thought but still decided to go. It took him around the same time to go to as it did the coliseum. Due to the Royal palace being at the center of the city, he had to take a roundabout path. 

Along the way, he practiced controlling his focus mode a bit more. He was still suffering from lapses of control but was getting good overall. 

As he was walking through the city, he had another one of such lapses. Time suddenly slowed down, and he saw everything way too clearly down to a minute level. 

A group of girls, clearly gathered around the most pretty one were walking down the road. The most pretty girl was wearing a light blue robe that was thin around her snow-white arm. 

She had a skinny yet tall body and her short face made her look very cute. The girls around her were quite pretty too, but none could compare to her beauty. 

However, that was not what Alex noticed the most. The thing he noticed was actually way behind the group of girls. There was a dark shadow that would flash by from time to time, constantly following the girls. 

'A stalker?' Alex thought in surprise. The person was very fast, to the point that Alex couldn't even see them properly, yet they were clearly stalking the group of girls. 

Alex felt that he needed to let the girls know. However, the person stalking was clearly very strong, so he couldn't directly let them know, or the stalker might decide to take revenge on him.

So, Alex took out the map from before and walked up to the group of girls. 

"Excuse me, can you help me find a place," he said. 

The girls seemed to want to immediately want to send him away, but the main girl spoke up first. "What is it, little brother? Where do you want to go?" she said. 

"Can you tell me where this place is?" he asked while randomly pointing to a place on the map.

"Oh that is… " the girl properly explained the direction to the location Alex had pointed to. 

"Ah thank you," Alex said and in the same sentence, but with a lower voice he whispered, "I just wanted to let you know that you have someone in black following you guys from behind, be careful," he said and immediately walked away. 

The other girls looked around in confusion trying to see who would dare follow them, but the girl in blue simply stared at  Alex's leaving figure with a hint of surprise in her eyes.

A black figure suddenly dashed up next to the girl. The one who had just arrived was actually an older lady in her late 20s, who was wearing the signature black robe of the Royal Fu academy. 

"Your highness, are you alright? I saw that boy say something to you," the new arriver said. 

"Yeah, Fumi, I am alright. It's… just that boy just now actually told me that you were following me. How did he manage to see you?" the girl asked. 

"A boy... saw me? That is impossible your highness. I am one of the fastest guards among your guards. The young boy could not have seen me," the woman named Fumi said. 

"I don't think he saw you exactly, but just your silhouette, but that too was quite surprising. Do you know who that boy is?" the girl asked. 

"Hmm… he must be quite good if he managed to do that. As for who he is, I do not know your highness. The competition has a lot of different people come to the city. He is probably one of them. Do you want me to check on him?" the woman named Fumi said. 

"It's alright. Forget about it. You can go back now," the girl said. The guard immediately disappeared and the girl went back to mingling with the other girls and going around the city. 

Alex had no idea what had just happened as he had finally reached the place he wanted to come to. He looked around the place and was surprised just how many auction houses there were, but for various reasons, this was the one he had chosen. 

He looked up at the giant nameplate on the front of the auction house that said, "Pink Cloud Auction House."
