Black Witch Log-in

91(Arc2). Illegal Merchants

[Welcome to Festaland, a special map that is only present during the event]

Notifications sounded when I arrived at the new area. The first thing I did when I reached the special area of this event was to enjoy the state of the city filled with players.

“Aaaah... This is how the mmorpg game should be.” I really look forward to this atmosphere, where a city filled with players.

At first I was worried because to get to this particular map I had to use teleportation. While as is known if the teleportation fountain in the village is still frozen.

At first I was very afraid of losing the opportunity to participate in the first event because of that problem. But I am grateful that the teleportation fountain is not the only way to get to this place.

The second way to get to Fastaland is through the statistics menu which has a new option namely ‘Fast Travel’. This option will only be active when the player is in a safe area such as a city or village.

“Selected, selected. handmade armor durability \+10, cheap festive.”.

“Dear child, Dear child...good quality sword ATK \+20-35.”.

“Promo washing warehouse, Buy one get one! Ready for various equipment such as swords and armor!.”

The area around where I teleported has been enlivened by players who work as traders. Though I feel that it is as soon as possible to come here, but these players have preceded me.

Along the way has been filled by traders who sell by rolling out cloth to peddle merchandise. They are like five-footed swords that scatter the sidewalk of the road to sell.

“Very unsightly.” my murmur is upset.

Because of their actions, the road so wide becomes narrower. The road should have been passed by five people in tandem, but now two people pass it becomes so difficult.

It makes me wonder if no other player besides me is bothered by these merchants?.

After looking around I felt that I wasn't the only one disturbed. But even so no one dared to protest because these merchants had protection.

‘Icon coin, what is a sixth rank guild, Wanderers?.’ I started leaving the teleportation area while paying attention to the merchants.

“Hey buddy, look what that woman is wearing.”

“Wahahaha! Is he a beginner who can't even buy iron armor?.”

Two merchants talked about the clothes I was wearing. I was still wearing a broken rookie outfit, with headgear accessories with a wolf mask and a snow wolf skin robe provided by Herka.

During the one month of living on the Jotun continent I did not think about protective armor at all, due to my Immortal-like health due to the effects of the blood clot.

But Festaland is not the cold continent of Jotun, I have to start thinking about my body protection.

“Hey Miss Barbarian over there. Do you need an armor?.” one of the merchants called me, then...

“It looks like you also need a merchant, how about taking a look at my store?.” More and more merchants are starting to offer their merchandise to me.

“No, thank you.” I refused and tried to leave. But the traders tried to get in the way.

“Hey, come on I will give you a discount for a beginner player like you!.”

“Are you not ashamed to roam this map with his appearance like that?.”

“Get some of this beautiful armor, it's possible that one from the top guild will be interested in you.”

I used the \[Divine Blacksmith\] title effect to assess every item they offered me, and the result was all just very fragile junk items. I felt like I could destroy those items with just one strike.

Even if the purpose of making such an item is only for style. I feel like everything they show is still below my standards.

“Sorry I am not interested, so please give me a way.” I give the same reply.

But they were still so firm that I started to get emotional, my white hair started to change. If such a situation continues it may be bloodshed.

“If you do not step aside immediately, I will..” my words are cut off as the gazes of those merchants turn into full of threats.

“What will you do miss?.”

“What can a noob like you do, HAH!”

“Don't say much, quickly buy our goods or you will we fiber to the alley sebrlsh there!.”

Somehow it could become like this, those Swords instantly turned into Thugs that started to harden me.

‘Ah... I can't take it anymore.’ I started intending to take my axe, but before it happened all of a sudden.

“What is this, why are so many beggars in front of the teleportation gate!.” the voice of a girl sounded so loudly from behind. It seemed like someone had come from a teleportation spot.

His presence is so attention-grabbing. Having blonde hair then wearing all-yellow clothes in a style like a noble princess. In the surroundings were four soldiers equipped with full armor, as well as a maid following behind the girl.

“That Yellow Princess of One Thousand House Warrior!.”

“This is for the first time I saw it up close.”

“She really is a princess!.”

Every player around was directly talking about girls. While I myself tried to leave this place because Hanna asked me not to make trouble with the top guild Ten.

“One thousand warrior, fourth rank guild. It is expected that the first day will be easy to find celebrities.”

It was fortunate that I wore an appearance that did not attract too much attention, so I was safe from the eyes of the members of the large guild. The wolf mask that is part of the krpa cover I put my face covered, then I was about to slip away.

“Cih, this unpleasant sight.” The girl's face looks so disgusted at the traders. “How could I let this. My Brother is coming soon, this place must be cleaned!.”

The furious cries of the merchants aimed at the army of a Thousand warriors, they tried to fight back but the level of the merchants was not on par with the players from first-rate guilds.

“Yellow princess, you think you can do anything you want!.” appears a player with a fat appearance and sparkling accessories. He strongly reflected the greedy merchant upon seeing it.

“I will return the question to you..” The yellow girl stopped then massaged her head as if trying to remember the name of the player in front of her.

“Whoever you are!.” but he gave up. The fat man clenched his teeth in annoyance at feeling he had been slighted.

“You're from the Wanderers guild aren't you? I can see it from the emblem on your clothes, and the merchants around are the same.” The words of the yellow girl made all the merchants and fat men panic.

‘Are they so stupid that they thought no one would be aware?.’ my inner self.

“So can you members of the Wanderers guild do your best by setting up shop illegally by the roadside, HaH?.”

Not a single merchant dared to reply to the yellow princess' words. They know their joka is wrong because it makes it difficult for others for their own benefit.

But the Wanderers won't give up.

“There is this fuss!.” a loud voice sounded from the direction towards the city. The crowd of players split up to allow the Npc security forces to get here. Seeing the Npcs coming, I could clearly see the fat man smiling widely.

“Oh yes god, imaksih for sending the justice enforcement troops to us who are oppressed.” The fat man from the Wanderers guild began to praise the NPC troops.

“Actually what is this?, Why is this place so noisy?.” the soldier who seemed to be the leader of the army asked the man.

“Include warrior lord, my name is Goldseller, I am an ordinary trader who.bla BLA bla bla bla bla...” the fat man named Goldseller keeps telling what happened in his own ‘version’. Of course the story from Goldseller is mostly a lie that cornered the One thousand warrior side.

“What is true of everything that this trader says?.” asked the NPC team leader.

“True we destroyed their trading.” reply yellow princess.

“He admitted it, he already admitted it.” Goldseller shouted loudly as if celebrating his victory.

“Soldiers, immediately arrest those rioters!.” Goldseller's orders.

“............”

Crick... Crick...

But not a single NPC soldier moved.

“Indeed he thinks himself who, King of the world?.”

“He got too carried away. Ecting is also very bad.”

“Seriously I almost vomited when I saw him.”

Some players talked about Goldseller's stupidity, but they immediately turned away as the fat man's sharp gaze stared in anger.

“What is the reason you guys are doing this commotion!.” the leader of the NPC troops again asked the yellow princess.

“You can see the situation around, this area becomes so dirty and chaotic. This happens because of the presence of illegal traders who use public roads as their place to sell.”

The npc warrior leader looked around. Goldseller started to sweat coldly.

“We only do what should be the duty of soldiers like you, which is to discipline bullies like them.”

The yellow princess' words were immediately replied by Goldseller who said that the traders did not disturb public order at all.

“Just ask the visitors, does anyone feel disturbed?.” Goldseller smiled at every player around.

It was a threat, if any player dared to speak up then the Wanderers Guild would definitely hunt down that player. But if this continues to be allowed perhaps those traders will never be disciplined.

‘Mingkin they will also do the thing I experienced on Hanna.’

I covered my face with a mask and started screaming.

“They are very annoying!.”

My screams made all the attention go to me. Goldseller glared up to his eyeballs as if almost out.

“What's bothering you madam?.” npc team leader asks.

“Me... they forced me to buy things I didn't need, hiks.” I tried to dramatize a little.

“Ji... if I don't buy anything,...” face I cover with the palm of the hand.

“What will they do if you don't buy anything?!.” those npc words sound full of emotion.

“They will take me to that alley, I don't know what's there. But obviously I'm very scared..” I started crying as much as possible.

“Heee....” npc leaders stare at traders with flat facial expressions. “Quick disperse these despicable merchants. Arrest anyone who fights!.”

The situation in front of the teleportation area was increasingly crowded by the police officers who carried out raids of street vendors.
