Adventure Of The Arsenal Magus

Chapter 3 - Top Priority 3

Karl and Mortred was walking in a forest and reached the dirt road after they followed the guy Neji's instruction. It did lead them right to a road. But there is one thing though. They don't know where to go. Should they go left or right? That's their problem. It might lead them to the village or to somwhere else they don't know. They just stood in middle of road deciding where to go.

"So..... any ideas where the right direction is?" Mortred asked Karl.

"No I don't. I've already been walking if I did" Karl said.

They just stood their for a minute just deciding where to go.

"Let's should go right" Mortred suggested.

"Why?" Karl asked.

"Call it instinct" the smiling assassin said as she walked toward her suggested direction.

"Whatever. Your extinct better be correct" Karl said as he followed her back.

"Trust me okay? My extincit already save me a few times. You can rely on it" She said still walking to her d.e.s.i.r.ed direction. Karl didn't answered after that and just followed her back. After 30 minutes of walking, they then saw huge walls and a gate. It was the village.

"See?" The assassin said as she continued walking.

Karl sighed. "I guess your extinct is right then. Good asset you got there" He answered.

"Yep. Irreplaceable asset" She said and giggled. She then stopped in her tracks. Karl did the same and asked her.

"Any problem?" Karl asked. He didn't felt any enemy coming so he was confused. Mortred didn't answered and instantly consumed by leaves. After the leaves disappeared, she changed clothes. She is no longer wearing her robe nor her spartan like helmet. Her pony tail hair was gone and just left it untied. She was wearing a brown hoodie and black pants. She looks like a gangster and tomboyish but her gorgeousness is just out of the world. Even Karl was surprised at her transformation.

"So how do I look?" the assassin asked as she now is facing Karl hoping for a compliment.

Karl just stared at him for a while. "Average" Karl said obviously not being honest. The assassin just pouted at his answer but shrugged it off. Karl was thinking why she's acting like that but also shrugged it off.

"Anyways how do you even had that outfit? That's obviously not on our world" Karl asked.

"Ohh this? I don't know too. I checked my dimensional bag and I saw this. I thought I might wear it since it's way more comfortable looking than those armors." She said.

'That's probably Rubick's work' Karl thought.

"By the way there are two clothes here. Wanna wear the other one?" She asked Karl.

"Sure why not" Karl said and looked at the clothes..... and he instantly declined. He saw a black and white stripped t-shirt and white tight pants. It even has bra.

"No way in the hell that I'll wear that!! That is for Females!!!!" Karl yelled to him.

"Huh? Genders has specific clothes??" The airhead assassin asked.

'What you expect from someone who live in a mountain. Rubick probably left that clothes she is wearing for me and that for her.' Karl just thought.

"That one you are wearing suppose to be mine!! And that one in your hand is yours!!" Karl yelled again.

"B-But I kind of liked this clothes. It's very comfortable" She said with a puppy expression.

Karl sighed "Well nevermind. Just store those other clothes. I'll keep on wearing mines" Karl said to her. Karl really is fine with his clothes. He was just wearing his usual mage clothes. (He is wearing a cosmetic named Hood of Endless Intellect as a hat cosmetic and Full Cabalist of Dark Magic Set)

"Yehey!!" She celebrated. The other clothes then once again consumed by leaves and disappeared. Karl just sighed from all of this and started walking ahead of the celebrating girl.

"Hey wait for me!" She said as Karl went before her. Karl didn't answered and continued walking. After walking for a couple minutes, they've reached the gate. As they go in, they then saw a booth in their left with a table and two people sitting behind it..... and when I mean sitting I meant sleeping.

"Are these two suppose to be the guard of this village? Why are they sleeping?" Mortred asked.

"I don't know... But thanks to it we can go just easily." Karl said as he continued walking in not even bothering with the sleeping guards. Mortred just followed behind him as she looked at the two guards sleeping. She then pay them no mind and just followed Karl. They are walking now through the Konoha's busy street. Kid's were playing in the streets. People jumping roofs to roofs and people walking in the streets.

"This seem to be a nice village. It is very big too." The assassin said to Karl. She always start the conversation since she saw Karl don't intend to make one and that is just plain awkward. She doesn't want to feel awkward while walking so she always start the conversation. A good assassin she is. Well that aside, Karl didn't even answer her. Karl just continued walking. Seeing him like that, she thought of other thing to talk about just to make the awkwardness disappear.

"Ahmmm... So are we looking for place to live temporarily?" She asked.

"Yes. But we don't have their currency. I need to ask someone first." He said as he walk toward a shop. He then inside and saw a lot of weapons. Karl was surprised. Most of the weapons in this shop are the weapons he haven't seen before.

'What are these weapons?' Karl just intrigued with this new potential knowledge. I mean that's what he came here for. Knowledge. Knowledge is everything for him.

"Good morning sir what can I do for you?" a girl in the counter said. She was about 16 years old, wearing long-sleeve, high-collared white blouse with marron edges, black fingerless globes, and a black forehead protector with a chinese style bun like hair. "Hello sir?" She said again trying to wake up the day dreaming customer. Karl waked up from the second call.

"S-Sorry" Karl said to the beautiful girl as he felt embarrassment right now.

'Is it his first time seeing a kunai?' she thought.

"No no it's fine sir. Take your time" She said looking at the guy. She really didn't expect that reaction since she looks very m.a.t.u.r.e and serious. Who would've thought that he'd blush?

Karl on the other hand was like. 'That's embarrassing. I completely let my guard down' he thought.

'Well now that it came to this, I gotta ask some questions.' Karl thought as he took a small blade like thing and went to the counter.

"Ahmm excuse me. I'm gonna buy this." Karl said.

"Only one kunai sir?" The girl asked.

"Yes. 'Your not suppose to buy only one of this?' His head was like pushing some of his knowledge a little bit making room for new ones. "Do you accept this as payment?" Karl said as he placed a bag of in the counter. It is the currency in his world. He was trying whether it's useful or not.

"Let me check sir." The girl said as he took the bag of coins and checked it. As she was checking a new the door opened again and someone came in.

"Good morning Ma'am. What will you buy?" she greeted again completely ignoring the bag Karl handed. Customer first right? Consumer is the lifeline of a business right? Well enough of that.

"What took you so long to follow?" Karl said to the girl.

"Sorry... There was two stray cat fighting. I have to stop them before they hurt each other" The assassin said and walked towards him.

"Acquaintance sir?" The girl asked.

"Yes. Now about the blade" Karl said to the distracted girl.

"Ohh right sorry sir" She said as she opened the bag.

"No It's fin-" He didn't even got the chance to talk when the girl just shouted.

"A-ARE THIS PURE GOLD COINS? ARE THIS REAL?" The girl said as she take one coin and look intensely at it.

"A-ahmm.. Yes?" the surprised Karl said. Mortred was just confused looking at them.

"SIR YOU CAN TAKE TAKE THIS SIR.... AND THIS..... AND THIS!!" She said as she took 5 pouch of kunai and 5 pouch of shurikens and other more stuffs and placed it on the table.

'T-That's too much stuffs!' he thought. 'Well that's a proof that gold coins from my world is very useful to them.

"T-Thanks" Karl awkwardly said to the girl as he was lost on what to do with all of this stuffs that he don't even know the use of.

"THANK YOU TOO SIR. ANYWAYS WHAT'S YOUR NAME SIR?" The girl said as she bowed towards him.

"My name is Karl" Karl was smiling awkwardly not knowing how to react. In his world, this bag of gold coins can buy him 10 average liquor. But in this world, he could get this much things with a bag of coins.

"Thanks for the purchase Karl-san" she said to her. Karl just awkwardly smiled.

"This weapon shop is selling weird stuffs" The assassin said as she reached Karl.

"Weird stuffs ma'am?" 'Both of them never saw a ninja stuffs before?' She thought.

"Yeah weird stuffs. Do you sell this kind of thing?" She said as she took one of her signature dagger and place it on the table.

The girl picked it up and examine it. "Hmmm.. Not really ma'am. But if you order we can make it ma'am" She said.

"Ohh cool you can make those?" The assassin answered.

"Yeah It's not that hard to replicate" The girl said as she place the dagger back to the table.

"Good. Make me 100 of em" She said to the girl.

She then took a a paper and wrote stuffs in it. "100 daggers... Say what's your name ma'am so I can put it in the order?" She asked.

"Mortred" She said. "As for the payment, here take thi-" she was stopped when Karl placed another bag of gold coins in the table.

"Here's the payment for her order." He said.

"HEY!! I can pay for my self!!" The assassin said. Karl then lean closer to her.

"I know you can. But I know you'll take it from your dimensional inventory and that will surely surprise her. We are in a new world. Hide your skills as hard as possible" Karl whispered.

"R-Right... Sorry I was careless" She said completely accepting her mistake.

Karl sighed. " It's fine. Just be careful next time okay?" Karl said. 'How is this airhead one of the Veil sisters?' Karl just thought. As they was whispering from one another, they didn't saw the girl's reaction from behind the counter. She was shocked. Her eyes might even popped out.

"MA'AM I'LL MAKE IT 250 daggers!! GIVE US 1 WEEK WE'LL FINISH IT. THIS IS TOP PRIORITY!!" She said now really panicking. "DAD!! MOM!!!" She started shouting for her parents just to show this absurdity.

'that's not good' Karl thought.

"We will take our leave now. We will take the our order next week same time." Karl said as he took the bags. 'THIS IS FREAKING HEAVY!!' he thought. It even force him to actually manipulate the air surrounding with his Wex to make it little light.

"Wait sir. It's better if you talk to my paren-" She was stopped when both of the customer already left the store.

"What is it?" A guy then came in from the upper floor. More likely his dad. Followed by a girl behind him. That's probably her mom.

"DAD! MOM!! LOOK AT THIS!!" The girl said. as she opened the bag.

"Calm down Tenten my dear" His father said. He then look at the bag.

"W-WHAT?!?!? WHERE DID YOU GET THIS?!?" Her dad yelled as he came closer to have a better close at the gold coins.

"YOU CALM DOWN TOO" Her mother yelled also.

"B-But this is so much gold!!. We could buy so much stuffs to make weapons with!!" He said.

"Yeah I can see that." She said and look at her daughter. "Who gave this my dear?"

"It was a guy and a girl name Karl and Mortred. Karl bought weapons and Mortred ordered some daggers!!" She said.

"How much weapons to they bought?" her dad asked.

"The guy payed 1 bag of gold coins for 1 kunai" She said.

"WHAT!?!?!?!?" both of her parents yelled.

"Yeah right?!!? But it was too much gold so I gave him 5 pouch of kunai and shuriken and some other stuffs not even worth this much gold!!" She said.

"D-Dang" this is only what his father can say.

"And the other bag of gold is from the girl I assume?" Her mom asked.

"No actually... The girl ordered 100 of this kind of dagger and was about to pay when Karl stopped her and placed another bag of gold coins" She said as she show the dagger to his dad. Her dad then take it and to get a closer look.

'T-This is a strong dagger!! What kind of material is this?' Her dad thought

"Anyways since 100 is little small.. I made it 250 daggers for the next week!!!" She said.

"T-That's really huge profit for our shop" Her dad said.

"Y-Yeah" Now her mom.

'Karl and Mortred huh? Never heard of this names before. Who might be these two?' His dad thought.

"For now let's make this daggers. 250 is a large number. My material won't be enough I need to buy more." Her dad said.

"yes dad!" She said.

"Hon... Call the workers... We need to finish this before next week!. This could be potential loyal Buyers!!" He said.

"On it" She said as she walked upstairs.

"Let's do THIS!!!" Her dad yells.

And their house became very noisy and busy. That enough money made them like that lol. Money really is powerful aren't they? Anyways they started doing their things, sunset slowly approached and it's about to be nightime (sounds like minecraft) People will soon sleep!! Not them though.
