Chapter 125: Fake Job

Arthur did not stop after conquering one tribe, but did that, so all the tribes were on the way? He also used the blood mark to make them spread his faith, which added up more devotees to him.

The moment he reached the Sherekan city, he already had over 1 thousand devotees, which were many people. It would surely boost his attributes by a lot the next time the system grants him attributes.

Also, the moment he arrived in the city, the blessing from his system was granted to all of his devotees. As he wasn’t near any of them, he did not know what was the blessing, but if it was good for them, then they would continue to worship him, and that would strengthen him.

Now, Sherekan city was incredible. Al though the desert itself and the tribes in it looked poor, and clearly had to struggle to survive, the situation in the city was the opposite.

Tall buildings, sturdy walls, and clean streets. It did not lose to any other big city that Arthur went before.

The reason for the tribes to not move there and live was the price. A person had to pay to stay in such a place, and if an entire tribe went, then it would be impossible to pay for all of them.

Sherekan was a city designed only for the powerful and rich from the desert, and after the war the Shukar Empire went 80 years ago, that fact was more clear than ever.

The economy of the empire wasn’t in its best shape. It was slowly recovering, but that would still take a while to happen.

Arthur, Wisa, and Jane made their way to the city and waited for a few minutes in line. The stream of people that entered that immense city was fairly low if you compared to its size. That was because of the exorbitant price to stay there.

Money wasn’t a problem for Arthur, at least not for now, so he paid the guard and entered the city. Sully was not with them, as the city did not allow domestic magical beasts, but he found a place to stay outside the city, so it wasn’t much of a problem.

“We should find ourselves a house to rent for a month. Could you two perhaps find one? I’ll look for more information about the tattoo magic, and perhaps other books about magic. We can meet there.” Arthur said as he pointed to the town’s square.

Many people in Sherekan lived in the streets. They probably used all of their money to pay to stay inside the city, and also for food. For them, it was better to stay inside the city, living in the streets, than out there in the dangerous desert.

Only powerful people like Arthur could go around, as he was pleased with no concern about the dangers.

Now, based on what Arthur knew, there was a school that taught youths to become powerful warriors, and the major subject was the tattoo magic, and also how to wield weapons.

He got that information with his talking with Ahanu, but he also went around the city asking for it, and eventually found out it was indeed true.

The only problem was how to enter, as the classes had already started a long time ago. Arthur did not want to become a student, as it was too boring, and would prevent him from getting most of the information he wanted, but a teacher in disguise? That would be cool.

Arthur went around talking with everyone. Threatening, paying, and many methods to get the information he needed, and it paid out.

“Look, there is a potion store in an alley not that far from here. Just go there and say ‘I want to buy a dessert. The owner of that shop can create you a fake ID to enter as a teacher in the school, and he also has connections inside that place so you can enter with no one asking too many questions.”

A man had bruises all over his body after Arthur gave him a good beating and got the information he needed to enter the school. It was a restrictive place, and even he couldn’t easily go there and buy the knowledge he wanted to.

The school kept the books only inside that place, and no one could leave with the books in hands. It was their way of keeping the school important, and give it a reason for the youths to pay the absurd fee to learn there.

Arthur went to that store the man talked about. Before going inside, he changed his appearance to one of an older man with a black beard.

“Welcome. How can I help you?” A middle-aged man said.

He wore an all black attire, and one could tell he wasn’t there only to sell potions.

“I want to buy the dessert.” Arthur said.

That sentence shocked the man for a moment, as it was not every day that someone went there looking for his other services. If the authorities knew about it, then he would be dead for sure, so it was not a well-known thing inside Sherekan.

“Follow me.”

There was a secret room behind the counter. The man opened it, and it led to the place where he did his illegal business.

“What do you need?”

“A fake ID and a word with your connections.”

“Sure. What type of ID it is?”

“Of a teacher, so I can invade the Namida school”

“…”

The man was even more shocked after hearing what type of ID Arthur wanted, but he did it. It got done in 2 hours, but he still needed to talk with his connections, so Arthur could only enter the school the next day.

“Everything costs around 250 gold coins.”

It was an absurd amount for the people that lived in the Shukar Empire, but for Arthur, who had come from a place with a decent economy, not that much. He had tons of coins and treasures inside his magical pouch.

He tossed the coins to that man and left the store, going straight to the town’s square to meet up with Jane and Wisa.

They were already there, and it seemed their task of looking for a house went well.

Wisa and Jane were curious after seeing how different Arthur looked, but he told them he would explain once they entered the house. So, they left.

Arthur went there to check the place, but little did he know that there was someone plotting against him.
