"I can do that. But why me? You could pay anyone else." She had her fears about strange people, demons, and assassins who were constantly the source of news around this city and others in the empire.
Lothur then said. "I just arrived in this city, but while walking down the main avenue, the smell of the roasted meat from this tavern caught my attention, so I came straight here before looking for a guide.
Seeing you, I immediately decided you would be the best possible guide... It will certainly be pleasant to tour this city alongside a beauty like you, Miss."
"So it's because of my beauty?" She said as she showed her perfect teeth to Lothur. "Very well, I will see what I can do, but I make no promises."
"OK."
"Wait for me here."
After a while, Lothur finished eating his soup, and the beautiful attendant with beautiful nice curves returned to him.
"OK, I'm ready. Where do you want to go?" She stopped in front of Lothur's table, dressed differently from moments ago.
Now instead of the apron and work clothes she was wearing, she had put on a beautiful light green dress with a lovely neckline, which also did not hide her legs.
"By the way, my name is Natali."
"Pleasure, Egon." Lothur smiled at her.
"So, what is your first destination? What are you looking for?"
Natali didn't have high cultivation. She was only a Mortal Warrior, level 8. So she couldn't feel the gigantic difference between her and Lothur and was naturally treating him as an equal.
Lothur answered her. "Take me to the local Cultivation House."
"Cultivation House, huh?" As they both walked out of that tavern, she was chatting with Lothur. "Are you after some kind of mission? Are you a mercenary, Egon?"
"Not exactly. I'm just after some information."
"So what do you do for a living? Are you some kind of warrior?"
Natali was quite talkative, so as she directed Lothur to the Cultivation House, she went the whole way talking to him, asking things to understand who he was, but also talking about herself.
ραΠdαsΝοvεl ƈοm She was a young woman in her prime, 21 years old, and already at level 8.
She didn't have a bad talent!
Unfortunately, she was from a humble background and had to work hard to pay for her studies at a local academy.
With the work offered by Lothur, she could pay for weeks of her expenses, so she couldn't help but be curious about him.
After listening to various answers, some true, others invented by Lothur, they arrived at the Cultivation House.
This was the first city Lothur was passing in Rablus. But already in this southernmost part of this empire, he could see that the local quality was far superior to what he had found in Cesha and Lenz.
But it was not for nothing. Living where monsters constantly appeared, this population had to either be stronger than average or find ways to compensate for possible weaknesses!
There were several Saints in this city, particularly in the building of the Cultivation House that Lothur had just entered.
Upon arriving there, Lothur went directly to the information area.
"Senior, what do you want in our humble post?" Someone went over to meet them, quickly assigning a room for both of them to wait for the person who would come to speak with them.
Natali saw this and thought it strange, as normally, one would have to face lines in the Cultivation House to do anything there. But Lothur had been immediately directed to a room while several others were still waiting their turn to be attended to.
But she didn't ask anything right away. She stood silently watching; something strange to her that if any of her acquaintances saw her like this, they would know she had something on her mind.
She only didn't speak when she had something important on her mind!
Lothur did not notice this woman's curiosity and merely waited in silence for the official of this post.
After only two minutes, someone dressed in the uniform of the Cultivation House, with a symbol of his position within this place, appeared there to meet them.
Immediately upon seeing that man, Natali opened her eyes wider, seeing a 3rd-grade member coming to attend to Lothur.
The Cultivation House had its hierarchy. Besides there is a distinction between official and member; the former were usually just mortals, and the latter cultivators; they also had an internal ranking according to cultivation.
A 1st-stage cultivator would be a 1st-grade member, while a 2nd-stage cultivator would be a 2nd-grade.
There were other classifications according to the type of work each one did. Still, Natali knew that any 3rd-grade member had great importance within the Cultivation House.
"Senior, what do you need?" That man greeted Lothur politely as he sat down with these two on the opposite side of the table.
'Senior?' Nicoli glanced at Lothur out of the corner of her eye, realizing that this man next to her was not insignificant like her.
Lothur ignored the doubts in Natali's heart and asked that Cultivation House member. "I have a name that I would like to search for information related to it."
"What name?"
"Mathias Scheidemann. He has been dead for many years but was a demon hunter, a peak Transcendent before his death." Lothur spoke about the soul fragment he had met in Lewerenz.
"A demon hunter? I don't know if we have information about that person here, but if we don't, we definitely have it somewhere." That man flipped through the book he had brought, heading toward the demon hunter part.
"That's good to know... Is there any way you can send out a communiqué through your posts seeking this information?"
"Hmm, if we don't have access to that information, I will do that, senior." Before falling silent, that man spoke and focused on the list of names he had found.
Every demon hunter who became a Transcendent sooner or later entered the catalog of experts registered by the Cultivation House. This was not only because they usually had Soul Bones and were very strong, but because in a place as dangerous as this state, having contacts with people like this was important.
Sooner or later, an organization might need the help of many of these professionals!
Knowing where to find them, contacts, and other information was crucial.
That's why the Cultivation House had been buying information about demon hunters since ancient times.
Sometimes they didn't have news of the death of one of these demon hunters, so these names remained in their current information. But even when one of them died, this organization didn't get rid of their information until they knew the exact status of their Soul Bones.
Since bones were extremely rare and valuable, anyone with several of them was kept under observation even after death!
As long as it was not confirmed that new owners had reached these bones, the Cultivation House would continue to search for information about such a person in the hope of finding their bones!
