But Silja wasn't sure where she should go without any guidance so she decided to roam around randomly. She saw a few ladies from the competition were roaming around and talking to the people, asking various kinds of questions.

She didn't pay attention and walked out further.

She walked for a while sometimes and reached a more dense area of the city. It was a residential area for common people.

The houses were built in the most proper ways but they were mostly in the same structure.

The people who lived there must be middle class. Silja was looking around aimlessly when in one of the streets she saw a familiar face which caught her attention.

She stood a few steps away from the person as she observed him. The man was sitting near one of the houses which were on the main street. With him were two old people who were talking to him. From the observation, Silja could tell that from the couple the old man couldn't see. As they exchanged a few words the young man took out a pouch from his old bag and handed it to the couple while carefully looking around.

After the exchange, he started to walk away from there.

Silja felt curious and started to follow him closely. His footsteps were fast and soon silja lost his sight in the busy street.

She increased her speed and reached the corner where he had disappeared but there was no one.

Suddenly someone put a knife on her throat from behind and Silja gasped.

She lifted her hand immediately in a surrender position.

"I'm not here to harm you," She spoke softly. People moving around on the street were looking at them but no one bothered to help. Someone who stopped to see what was going on ran away because of the man's threats.

"Wanna die too?" He glared at people.

"If not for harming me then why are you following me then?" Then he looked at the woman and asked. He also increased the pressure over the knife he was holding near her throat. Silja was dressed in simple clothes like normal people so she was blending with people.

"Let me go first," Silja said. The man hesitated for a moment before he loosened his grip. When he took away the knife Silja finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She turned around and looked at the man from a close distance.

Yes, she was right, he was the same thief who had stolen her money last time in the market.

"You…..I remember you," it turned out that the man also recognised her.

"You are the woman who gave me punishment that day," he had a sour expression on his face as he spoke.

"Ohh you have a good memory," Silja laughed dryly.

"Of course how can I forget the woman who sent me to prison," he said and took out the knife which he had put away and pointed it in front of Silja.

"Haha, why so serious. Let's not remember the past," Silja took a careful step backwards.

"Why shouldn't I? In fact, this is a chance for proper revenge." he smiled wickedly.

"Umm, don't you know how many connections I have in prison, you shouldn't try to mess with me?" Silja folded her hands near her chest. But While trying to intimidate him she made him more angry.

"If I cut your throat now and throw you in the nearer alley, I wonder how much your contact will come to use?" The man lifted his eyebrows and bent down, keeping his face just in front of her.

"Haha, I was just joking. But I'm not here for that today. I'm here for business," Silja didn't doubt his words at all. It will be foolish to take risks.

"What business?" The man glared and pointed the knife to her neck again.

"Not official work just for some personal research. You have to answer questions and I'll give you money in return," Silja said.

"I'm not interested," the man rolled his eyes and started to walk away.

"Why not?" Silja asked.

"I don't want to do any business with you," he waved.

"One tale of silver in exchange for a few questions didn't sound like a bad deal to me," Silja said loudly from behind and the man halted his footsteps for a second.

"What type of questions?" He lifted his eyebrows.

"Nothing that can hurt you, some normal questions about this city and all," Silja stated.

"I don't think it will be that simple. And why would I believe you?" He asked. Why would any sane person be ready to spend one tale of silver just on some common questions?

"How about I pay in advance?" Silja took out a silver tale from the pocket of her dress and held it in front of him.

The shiny ingot of silver was so tempting to eyes that hardly anyone could resist it.

The man walked near her and tried to snatch it. But Silja didn't let him.

"If you want it, earn it," Silja smiled.

"Alright, what do you want to ask?" he gave in.

"Show me the city while answering my questions," Silja replied.

"You said only a question-answer," he pursed his lips. Why did she now include the city tour too?

"I changed my mind, take it or leave it. I will find someone else to do the job otherwise," Silja said while playing with the ingot in her hand.

"Fine," the man gritted his teeth.

"Let's start then," Silja walked away from him.

The man smiled slightly as he followed the woman.

"Where do you want to go?" He asked to catch up to her.

"You are the local one here you decide what is the best place to visit?" Silja replied.

"Very well then, follow me," he said.

"But first of all tell me your name," Silja stated.

"Carlo mason," the man replied in a beat.

"Carlo...hmm," Silja nodded.

"So is stealing things your permanent job or you do something else too?" She asked as they kept walking down the street.

"Full time," he replied.

"Ohh," Silja nodded.

"Why do you want to report me and lock me up in prison again?" He asked.

"No, we are good. No past fuades," Silja waved her hand. His eyes were continually roaming around on the street. She saw many people working in the shops and on the small stoles.

"What was in that parcel which you gave to that old couple?" She posed another question.

The man looked at her for a second with a murderous gaze before replying.

"None of your business,"

Silja didn't ask further and changed the question.

"How big is Northcrest?" She asked.

"As big as a capital should be," came a reply.

"What is the main source of income for most of the locals here?" She asked another question.

"Business, trading," he replied.

Silja nodded. It was normal since Northcrest was the capital of the Dragon empire it was a comparatively wealthy city and people do travel here most of the time so the business must be blooming.

During their short walk, Silja kept walking until she felt that the sun had started to burn above.

"Where are you taking me?" Even after walking around for more than an hour, they weren't reaching anywhere.

"You said you wanna see the city, then I'm showing you each and every part. Keep walking while keeping your eyes open," the man smiled widely.

And Silja's lips twitched in annoyance.

Since the city was big it wasn't possible to walk on foot for long.

"Take me to the place which is important," Silja rolled her eyes.

"Fine, follow me," he said.

"Why do we use fery if it's far away," he suggested since she was loaded. Why Should they walk and try to save money?

"Sure if you are bearing the expense?" Silja smiled looking at him. The man glared at her and both of them kept their tour by walking.

The first place he took her was a big clothing shop.

"Why here?" She asked.

"You are a woman from a big house. You must be like shopping for pretty dresses," he replied. Silja looked at him and shook her head. They took a look inside but didn't purchase anything. The next all other palaces were similar shops for jewellery and all.

When Silja felt they couldn't walk anymore they took a break and for lunch, he took her to a big fancy place for food.

"Do you eat these every day?" Silja asked.

"I can't afford it," he replied.

Then show me what you can afford.

He rolled his eyes and they ate on a small stole on a nearby road.

At the end of the day, Silja paid him the silver ingot she had promised and asked him to meet her at the same place the next morning.
