184 Chapter 184: Black Market
The black market do exist but because of the forbidden goods that were sold, the merchants chose to stay in a hidden place located inside a mountain close to the Vampire City.
The Vampires had a lot of golds and treasures in possessions, so fairies and elves from the black market sneak into their empire to steal them.
Although many do not know this but the resources that were stolen from the vampires were the ones sold at the black market.
Sunny teleported herself with Kevin and the two girls to the entrance of the black market. The market was located inside a mountain but there was an entrance everyone was required to pass through before entering into the cave where the black market was.
There were guards stationed at the entrance of the market. But they were not weak. They possess forbidden spells and magics they could use to defeat any magical creature.
They were also able to detect when someone is strong or is a threat to them. So no one could enter without them spotting whatever magic or spell he has.
One could say they are powerful than most wizards or witches that ever existed.
As for fairies and elves that chose to come to the black market, they will have to buy a ticket from middlemen who would teleport them to the black market.
But as for those who have someone who could teleport them to the black market, they will have to pay an amount of money to the guards before passing through the gate into the market.
.....
Even though the guards have powerful spells, these black market merchants also have spells they could use to protect themselves in case someone plans to attack them while purchasing their goods. They were able to use forbidden magic freely without any problem and could kill anyone who challenges them for using it.
They wear this similar mask that prevents their faces from being seen by just anyone.
As soon as the students landed at the entrance of the black market, they could see hundreds of people on a queue waiting to enter the cave.
The black market was said to be a busy place during the day but It was more busier even at evening.
Kevin and the girls stayed on the queue and even after ten minutes, twice the amount of those who were on the queue lined up behind them.
“I must say almost everyone in the sparkle city is here to buy forbidden goods.” Kevin said.
“Mostly spell books.” Sunny replied.
“I know a lot of elves are unable to learn magic and they have to learn spells to be on par, but what does that have to do with fairies, the original owner of magic?” Lexa asked, noticing that the fairies on queue are a lot more than the elves.
“That’s because we don’t want to get killed by those blood sucking monsters.” A fairy guy standing in front of them said.
He was a handsome looking fairy wearing the best clothes any male could ever wish to buy.
From his mode of dressing, Lexa concluded that he must be from an affluent family. But whose family could it be? She recognized children from the other affluent family, but she’s sure she never saw this one before.
The one thing that was giving her a thought back was the robe he was wearing.
‘This looks so familiar.’ Lexa thought as she inspected the robe carefully.
“Hi, I’m George.” He flashed a smile at Lexa who glared at him suspiciously.
He presented his hands to her for a handshake but Lexa only stared at his hands like it was some disease.
“Don’t worry, I don’t hurt people. I only copy a heck of things.” He tried to persuade her.
That was when Kevin stepped forward and threw a glance at him.
“Oops, sorry. I guess you must be lovers.” He giggled nervously before turning to look at the other girl.
He saw that this one was wearing dark shades in a dark cave which was quite abnormal. He could only come to a conclusion that she was blind.
He shifted his gaze to the last girl who appeared to be more attractive than the first girl.
“Don’t bother tendering a handshake, the result is the same as the first girl.” Kevin said.
“Why? Is she your sister?”
“You wouldn’t want to know.” Lexa replied. She glared at the clothes he had on. “You look familiar, have we met before?”
She asked, trying to see if George recognized her and was just pretending.
“Have we? Maybe, cause I can’t remember ever seeing this face.” He replied.
“That robe you’re wearing is quite expensive, how did you manage to purchase it? Only those from an affluent family are able to purchase something like this.”
“This? I bought it with my money. Although it’s not as expensive as you described it.”
Lexa smirked at him as she grabbed the sleeve of his robe.
“Three reasons why I don’t believe you bought this robe yourself. One, it is expensive for being sold at 10,000 dollars. Two, not everyone wears something as traditional as this. Only the Royal family and the village leaders are seen in this outfits. Except you are the son of the king or the son of one of the leaders.”
“Ah! I didn’t want to reveal who I am, but since you seem to know a lot about wealthy families like us, I’ll satisfy your curiosity by telling you who I am.”
He brought out a hand fan and used it to cover a side of his face like how most chiefs do while in their traditional robes.
He cleared his throat and started speaking; “I am the last son of the eighth leader. His favorite son to be precise. What else do you want me to reveal?”
“Oh really?” Kevin said. “I never knew we had a seventh leader not to talk of eighth.”
“And you didn’t allow me to say the third thing.” Lexa said.
“Do you know who Lina is?” She asked.
“Yeah, the popular girl, famous for her extraordinary beauty.” George snickered as he moved closer to Kevin and the girls and started whispering.
“Do you want to know a secret, she and I are dating and are planning to get married soon. Isn’t that great? Those men wanting her as a wife will be so disappointed once they hear about our marriage.”
Kevin and the girls looked at each other as they wondered how someone could be so fond of telling such big lies as this.
Lexa sighed and said; “How about I tell you a more interesting secret?”
