Chapter 1469 Unexpected Treatment

Chapter 1469  Unexpected Treatment

The female staff led Tang Shaoyang to the upper floor. He earned a lot of intense stares from the people on the first floor the moment he stepped onto the stairs. He understood why the people below gave him such stares. Not everyone could go to the second floor.

There were still a lot of people on the second floor, but not as many on the first floor. To his surprise, the female staff led him to the third floor. Again, the visitors on the second floor looked toward his direction. He could feel that everyone on the second floor was looking at him.

The third floor was completely different from the first two floors. Instead of being separated by sections, the third floor was separated into many rooms. The female staff led him to one of the rooms, a luxurious room.

Tang Shaoyang could tell with a single glance that the couch, the table, and even the painting.

"Please wait for me here while I am taking the item, Sir," The female staff gestured politely toward Tang Shaoyang to sit on the couch.

"Before that, may I know what equipment you are looking for, Sir? Are you looking for a staff or a robe? We also have trinkets."

Tang Shaoyang really did not really know much about the mage's equipment. He saw Liang Suyin fight in her armor. Arina and Selena wore the priest robe they got from the Aqura until now. Jasmine and Rosalie were wearing their royalty robes. As for the staff, he never saw them using the staff. Liang Suyin used a sword, and the other four never had any weapon in their hands. He did not really know how crucial the staff for a mage was. Most of the mages he knew did not have a staff, even Zowen the Lightning Grand Magus.

"Let me see the robes and the trinket first."

Since none of them used staff. He thought the staff was not as crucial as their robes. As for the trinket; this was his first time hearing about trinkets. He wanted to see what this trinket was and its effect.

"Is there any specific requirement, Sir? Is it for a fire mage or elementalist, or maybe other elements?"

"Yes, it's for fire mage," He nodded. Between the five women, he felt like Liang Suyin was the top priority since she did not have the mage robe.

"Please wait for a moment, Sir." The female staff bowed and left the room.

Tang Shaoyang understood why people stared at him when he went up to the third floor. Only the special guests could shop on the third floor. He was now shocked that the badge was worth more than he thought.

While waiting for the female staff, he took a look at the room. It was a well-decorated room. The thing that caught his eye the most was the carving on the ceiling. It was a dragon stone carving. The carving caught his attention because it was a nine-headed dragon. It looked like a life creature with its eyes locked on him as he looked up to the ceiling.

"I thought a multiple-headed dragon is an accursed dragon?" An art of a cursed dragon as a decoration. That just did not click in his mind.

His thoughts were interrupted by the knocks on the door. A light knock resounded, three times. Then the door opened.

Tang Shaoyang thought the items he was looking for had arrived. But then he was disappointed when he saw the people who entered the room. It was a woman in a red formal dress. Then another four female staff followed her. Each of the staff brought a tray in their hands.

"Please enjoy the refreshment while waiting for our staff to sort out the item you are looking for, Sir," The four female staff put three plates of snacks and a glass of red drink on the table. The first snack was something like a grape, but orange in color. The second snack was an interesting one, a dragon's head-shaped bread. The third snack was something like a skewer, but he did not recognize the meat. This was his first time seeing a meat blue in color. It was like rotten meat that was put in the refrigerator for a long time. The drink was similar to wine in color, but he was pretty sure it was not a wine.

"Thank you," Tang Shaoyang nodded to the female staff.

The woman in the red formal dress gestured to the other staff to leave the room as she followed them in tow. The moment they left the room, Tang Shaoyang's eyes glued to the blue meat skewer. It did not look appetizing, at all. However, it has a great smell. It smelled delicious that he wanted to try it even though it looked like rotten meat.

Now he knew why food must look good, not just taste good. The skewer smelled yummy, but he wouldn't try it just because of how similar the skewer is to the rotten meat. He decided to try the orange-colored grape. As he was about to take the grape, the door was slammed open followed by the voice of the female in the red formal dress.

"You can't disrupt the customer, Lady Elonia!"

"I won't disrupt him. I just want to see what kind of person receives the Duvrag's badge. That fool easily gave away the badge this soon."

A lady in a green dress rushed to the room, standing on the opposite table, looking directly into Tang Shaoyang. She wore a green dress, had long wavy hair that reached her butt, and beautiful bright green jade eyes.

The first thing he noticed from this lady was the pointy ear. Similar to Elf, but only halfway long. That told him that the lady was half-elf. His daughter had the same ear. They had a short staring contest until the woman in the red formal dress caught the lady in the green dress.

"You can't just barge into the room like that, Lady Elonia!" She raised her voice, trying to pull the lady in the green dress with her, "I am sorry for the disturbance, Sir."

"It's fine," Tang Shaoyang shook his head. He came here to shop and did not mind having another person in the same room. Not like he expected to shop uninterrupted anyway. But he soon regretted it.

Lady Elonia took the single couch on the side, staring at Tang Shaoyang. It seemed like she was looking at something from him, furrowing his brow. That was uncomfortable because it made him look like an animal in the zoo. He could not kick her out after he said he was fine with her.

Ignoring the half-elf lady, he plucked one orange grape and tossed it into his mouth. He frowned as he slowly tasted this new fruit. Not because the fruit did not taste good, but because it tasted similar to an orange. It was an orange but in the size of a grape.

"What's wrong? You don't like Orien?" The lady in the green dress asked, noticing the frown quicker than the female in the red formal dress.

"Not really. It just tastes similar to the fruit I know from my world," Tang Shaoyang plucked four more Oriens.

"Really? I thought Orien was a unique fruit that only grew in my world. That's why we serve it to our customers. Can you tell me the details about the fruit?" The lady in the green dress straightened her back, leaning closer toward Tang Shaoyang.

Tang Shaoyang told her Earth version's orange. He thought Elonia came to do a background check on him because of the badge. He was not expecting to have a fruitful conversation with her. She looked interested in the fruit topic and asked more about other types of fruits on Earth.

Fortunately, the female staff returned with items right after the orange talk was over. She did not return alone. Six female staff followed her, pushing the three-layered trolley.

Tang Shaoyang stood up and approached the item. He could feel the ominous feeling coming from Elonia that the fruit talk would not end for hours. She showed so much interest and was about to ask more about other fruits if not for the items.

The trolley was covered in a white fabric, but he could see through it. The top item was a crimson robe. There were six robes, the same color but with different designs.

The staff smiled and pulled the cover. Five crimson mage robes were folded on top of the tray, lining up for him to choose. He looked at the staff and asked, "Can I check the item?"

"Of course, you can, Sir." The female staff smiled and gestured toward him to choose.

Tang Shaoyang picked the mage robe in the middle.
