The First Legendary Beast Master novel Chapter 1171

Chapter 1171: Why Not Him?

“He has the System now too. I can see it. Can others see it?” The Innkeeper asked.

Karl nodded. “Anyone with a System assigned class should be able to see his. But for some reason, yours is hidden. I think it’s something to do with the backlash. But we don’t know why that happened to you, but not to him.”

“Maybe because I’m a Demon, and he’s an Orc? The Orcs follow any and every war and battle god they learn about, so one of them likely approves of him gaining power.”

“That is a possibility. It looks like we just gained more questions than we answered. However, we can think about that later. Let’s have a celebratory dinner first. If this silver is good here, then bring out the good rum, and we can celebrate properly.” Karl offered, and put a few coins on the table.

The Innkeeper scooped them up. “We take foreign silver at weight. We can’t expect everyone to use our clan’s coins, after all. Most cities are like that.”

“Is there no national currency?” Dana asked.

“National currency? There aren’t even reliable peace treaties between most villages, much less a unified currency. As long as your coins aren’t shaved, you’ll get a good price for them anywhere that you go.”

Karl sighed. “So much has changed since I was here last.”

The Innkeeper looked confused. “How long has it been since you were here? I can’t really tell your species’ ages.”

Karl chuckled. “It’s been a few thousand years. Don’t take it personally, there was some time travelling involved. But at the time, things were fairly well organized, and they even had patrols on all the major roads, hunting bandits.”

The Demon laughed, drawing confused glances from the tired sailors and locals in the tavern.

“That really must have been a long time ago. We don’t even say that there are bandits anymore. Just nomadic Clans, which are the same thing. If you come across them, you either beat them into submission or you get robbed.” The Innkeeper explained.

Dana sighed. “We might have to fly. If you let the Karl pick fights with every group of nomadic Orcs he comes across, we will never get anything done but drinking and fighting. Karl and the Orcs were made for each other.”

An Orc in the back of the room burst out laughing, and the mirth slowly spread around the room.

“That’s why we like living in cities full of Wrath Demons. They just get us, you know?” The Orc joked.

Karl chuckled and placed a few more coins on the table.

“Waitress, I think we need a party tonight. Let the house drink until those coins run out.”

The Innkeeper chuckled as she pocketed one of the coins and put the other two into the safe behind the bar. It would take effort for the patrons to get through that much liquor, and it wasn’t busy in here tonight.

Plus, they had food coming.

The tavern remained quiet for the evening, or at least the part of it that Karl and Dana were around for.
