Chapter 249: The Ticket

"Thank you…"

Receiving the cheap map which didn't seem to be that big, I started to check it in detail…

Other than the big Colosseum like arena in the middle, there were only two other districts in the whole city, the sect district and the market district.

The market district, the one this 'hotel' was situated in, was the place where the people set up their stalls to sell and it could be said to be like some sort of a 'commoners' district.

On the other hand, the sect district, being at the other side of the market district was like a premium version of the market district, with every sect having their own lodging there and with there being a far fewer stalls who had more precious materials when compared to the stalls set in the market district, stuff that could only be bought by rich members of the sect and not normal recruitees who had yet to start their rise to strength and fortune…

As for the place to register at, there was a stationed post right before the gate of the colosseum, two to be exact, as there was one beside the gate that could be accessed from the market district, and another one beside the gate that could be accessed from the sect district…

I as a recruitee had to register in the office in the market district, so following the simple map, I went there directly after leaving the 'hotel'...

`~~`~~`~~`

"Alright, you are registered now, here's your tag, remember that the tournament will start in 4 days!"

"Mhm…"

Nodding, I received the tag handed out by the registrar...

The registering went along smoothly, with nothing worth the mention happening, and with that being done one could say that I literally had nothing to do for the next four days, so I planned to alternate between checking the market for anything useful, and training my techniques a bit so they don't get rusty while spending the rest of the time sleeping…

`~~`~~`~~`

"Dear customer, you are sir Lan am I right…?"

"That's true, is something going on?"

Finding nothing that piqued my interest yesterday, I had returned quietly to my room by the end of the day, but after I woke up and went down the stairs to give it another go, I was stopped by the receptionist who seemed to know my name for some reason…

"Someone came here and left you a letter early in the morning, he seemed to be a servant from the sect district…"

"Oh…"

"Here you go…"

"Hmmm…"

Receiving the letter, I sat down at one of the tables as I opened it to check the content…

'The only likely sender is…'

However, the letter had no name attached to it, neither did it have a written message, it only had a piece of reinforced paper that looked like some sort of a ticket…

[ 'The Sects' Joint meeting Auction ticket'

- Authorizes access for non sect members to attend the auction or add something of proper value to the auction items. ]

"Hey, mister generous receptionist, do you know when is this the 'Sects' Joint meeting Auction' held?"

A hint of surprise flashed on the receptionist's face as he saw the ticket in my hand...

"Oh, dear customer sure has great connections, to receive one of these rare tickets is simply almost impossible for normal recruitees…"

The location of the big auction house in the sect district was already obvious on the map, but the ticket, strangely enough, didn't have a date on it…

"As for when it's held, it should be tonight, I heard they accept auction items till only an hour before the auction as not to waste a possible chance of a legendary rare item!"

"Thanks for the info…"

Leaving a silver coin for the receptionist, I left the 'hotel' to wander around while pondering…

'Is this another display of goodwill of his or…'

As calculative as that old white was, even if he had guessed my background wrongly as I lead him to, it made me a bit suspicious as this ticket was obviously not of the same value as the recommendation plaque…

'I guess I will check it out anyway…'

As the stalls set around the market district seemed to hold nothing special, it made me grow curious as how precious would the items in the auction be, besides…

'It's also about time that I use that to earn some coins…'

After the recent expenditures, my coin reserve was slowly shrinking, so this auction could be considered as quite a timely chance to replenish it, which would be useful in case I found something in the auction that piqued my attention…

`~~`~~`~~`

Expectedly, as soon as I tried to step into the sect district, I was stopped by guards who seemed to be patrolling…

"Excuse me sir, can I see your sect identity slip?"

"Can't you see that he seemed to be just a recruitee that overstepped his boundaries… just shoo him off."

"Can't you be a bit more polite, man…"

Seeing the two guards who were arguing about how to deal with 'peasants' like me, I didn't really plan to waste my breath explaining, so I took the ticket out for them to see…

After all, this ticket allows recruitees to attend the auction in the sect district so it was bound to allow access to the district itself, otherwise how is this ticket going to be of any use… unless you knew how to use the space element that is…

"Oh, it's a guest, you can go on sir, sorry for the troubles caused…"

"No problem."

As the guy has treated me with mutual respect from the beginning, I nodded to him, while sparing the other guard no glance as I went on my way…

"Oh, man, to think he was actually an auction ticket receiver, am I in trouble now…"

"I already told you to treat all with respect to avoid such situations, but… sigh…"

Putting this simple exchange aside, it took me no time to finally reach the auction house that the 'Sects' Joint meeting Auction' was held in...
