Chapter 218 Hell Springs,Annoyance
"Oh, and I will pay this time," Arkhen said. For the past three days, Jeizy was paying for the cost of everything, from the inn stay to their food. However, Arkhen realized that it was not that good to impose on him further.
"Are you sure? I know you must not have that many essence stones or energy stones with you since you haven't really gone out to earn them yet except for the last time we entered the labyrinth. Hmm...
"Do you want to visit the adventure guild here and take up some tasks to earn some stones?" Jeizy asked.
"Nah. It's fine. I don't want to waste time doing that. I just remembered that I had some storage rings I got from killing some people who were after me," Arkhen said as he shook his head.
Also, Arkhen indeed got storage rings from killing those assassins over half a month ago when he and Meya were returning to the capital town. However, the assassins were empty except for the weapon and armor they wore beneath their robes.
The shadow guard leader told him that assassins from organizations would usually be empty when going out on a mission to kill.
'Velshi. I know it's very expensive to produce essence stones using reality motes. Still, how much will it cost to produce 100 medium-grade essence stones?'
[This is restricted for you. Reality motes can produce them, but the system won't do it. It is for your own growth].
'Damn! Just give me 20 medium-essence stones if possible.'
[Ok, I tried. But it will cost 2000 reality motes, and this will be the only exception].
'…' Arkhen looked at his status and sighed. 'Fine, do it. I have gathered a considerable amount in the Draken Kingdom with the help of Balthin and any party anyway.'
'But damn, I need to earn money later!'
——
[System level: 2]
-[Reality Motes: 44,672]
-[Reality Essence: 11,008]

Soon, he saw 2000 reality motes deducting as 20 medium-grade essence stones appeared in his inventory.
He was also steadily completing his daily quest whenever it appeared, but it was not going successful for the past many days.
If he didn't get the urge to do something, the daily quest wouldn't appear. He also couldn't do fake conviction to his mind to produce an easy urge.
One or two daily quest prompt would still appear every day, and it was about gaining absolute mastery over his bodily prowess or the one that appeared today about successfully using chaos force to empower his skills, which he failed to do.
…
After flying for a minute, both of them arrived at the Hell Springs Center.
"Yep," Arkhen nodded. Yesterday, they had to enter the general hot spring of the men's section since all private hot springs were in use.
After arriving at the main reception desk, Jeizy said to the staff lady, "One private hot spring se-"
"One private hot spring section!"
*clank*
Two girls looking in their twenties arrived quickly and interrupted Jeizy before speaking and putting a silver badge on the desk. One had long emerald hair, was slim, and wore a fairy-like dress with a long frock. She was an elf.
Another girl had black twin ponytails and wore a black dress. She was a human.
Both of them were stunning beauties.
The staff lady awkwardly smiled before saying, "I am sorry. Only one private hot spring is empty."
"We arrived here first," Arkhen said with a snort.
"But I said about booking the private hot spring first," said the girl with twin black ponytails as she crossed her arms below her boobs. Her name was Kurania.
"And we have silver membership," said the elf girl with long emerald hair as she smiled triumphantly. Her name was Melfi.
Jeizy frowned and sighed as he shook his head. What a shitty situation. Why they had to encounter this?
"So membership gives you a priority?" Arkhen asked with a frown.
"I am sorry, dear customers," the staff lady said with an apologetic smile and continued, "the members are given priority if there's a queue."
Arkhen raised his eyebrows and thought of something before saying, "But there was not any queue. We arrived here first and told you about the booking first."
"Hahaha, sorry to pop your hopeful bubble. We still get priority," said Melfi with a grin. "As per the perks of membership, if a private hot spring section is not registered yet, we still get priority."
"Leave it, Arkhen. That's the perk of membership," Jeizy said with a wry smile before he asked the staff lady, "when will one get vacant?"
"Umm, the minimum wait is a bit over three hours. All private hot springs were booked for six hours," the staff lady said.
"We also want to book for six hours," said Kurania as she pushed the membership badge toward the staff. "Hurry up."
After saying that, the girl turned towards Arkhen and Jeizy before saying dismissively, "you two plebs can leave now."
Arkhen frowned at her tone. Turning to Jeizy, he asked, "can't you also buy a membership? You are the young master of the Daiwun clan, after all."
Hearing that, Kurania and Melfi turned to Jeizy with surprised expressions. Although they knew that Jeizy was from the Daiwun clan of his race and body characteristics, they didn't expect him to be the actual young master.
However, they realized something quickly as well.
"Haha, stop lying. How can you be so idiotic? If he is the young master of the Daiwun clan, he must have a membership," Kurania said with a mocking expression.
Jeizy was speechless. He would get an allowance of essence stones from his clan along with what he earns in adventures, but he didn't use them to buy memberships and shits! He used those essence stones to make progress in his energy ponds!
"Unlike you, I don't waste essence stones on memberships," Jeizy said with a snort. "That's why you two are still in the 2nd class while I am nearing the peak of the 3rd class despite our ages being close to each other."
"Humph, so you are saying that you Daiwun clan's young master?"
"I am, you dumbass. But I don't care. Come on, Arkhen. We'll enter the public one like yesterday."
"Yep. Get your fake asses out of here and enjoy with other plebs. Anyway, I don't give two hoots even if you were the Daiwun clan's young master."
"Stop looking like that, you hunk," said Melfi with a chuckle. "You are handsome and all, but I bet you are small down there, hahaha."
'This bitch…' Arkhen frowned as he stopped Jeizy, "wait. We will bathe in the hot sprint, but it will be a private one."
"Sir, please do not make any trouble here. It will not be to your benefit," the staff lady said with a weak smile.
Arkhen's demeanor changed as a sharp, cool smile appeared on his face before he said, "Chill. I am going to peacefully convince them to let us join them in the private hot spring."
"Huh? Are you retard?" Melfi asked with a strange expression as she looked at Arkhen as if she was looking at an idiot.
"Haha, that's also funny along with him sounding so stupid," Kurania said as she chuckled playfully.
"Arkhen?" Jeizy looked at Arkhen with a confused expression.
'Velshi. It's time to influence them,' Arkhen said as a glint passed through his eyes.
