Picking up Girls With My System-Chapter 318 First Stop

"This place is beautiful!" Cheryl said.

She walked down the road with her blonde hair moving with the wind, and her smile was so cute it would make any man fall in love.

Both Cheryl and Chris had never left their village before, so any town was extraordinary. Arthur imagined how they would react upon seeing the other truly amazing cities of the central continent.

"Where should we go first?" Arthur asked.

The two siblings did not need any time to think of an answer, quickly shouting, "eat!!!" in response to Arthur's question. Well, he could not agree more.

They slept and ate inside the carriage, but it was not the same thing as eating in a restaurant and sleeping on a comfy bed. Everyone from the convoy appreciated all the stops because it allowed them to recharge their batteries before going into the road again. No one was in a hurry, especially Chris and Cheryl, who were enjoying their time, seeing all the things they did not have the chance to see back then at their village.

"Brother, can we go there? The food smells delicious." Cheryl asked her brother, using a cute face.

"I don't know, sis. We need to save up for now," Chris said.

He wanted to give all the luxurious things his sister asked for, like going into fancy restaurants, but it was not possible. They had used almost all of their resources to get a ride to the school, and they still had quite the way to reach their destination, so going into cheaper places was the way to go.

Arthur saw their reluctant faces, and he said, "let's go there, and don't worry about it, I will pay for you both."

"What? Can you do that?" Cheryl said, showing her excitement.

Chris moved his head from side to side and said, "what she meant to say is that you don't need to use your money. We will eat somewhere else."

"Chris, I insist. Money is not a problem for me, so as long as you are with me, then it is not a problem for you two. Now come before I change my mind." Arthur said.

They did not like the idea of taking advantage of Arthur, but he insisted for them to go, and not going would hurt his friend, so the trio went to the fancy restaurant for a meal!

The hostess guided them to a table and also showed them the menu. It had lots of foods, and some Chris and Cheryl had never eaten.

"Big bro Arthur, can I order everything I want?" Cheryl asked.

Chris was ready to say something, but Arthur was the one saying it first, "of course. But only order what you will eat. I don't want to see a tiny piece of food left on any of your plates."

"Ha, you don't need to worry about that. This belly of mine can tank them."

Cheryl called the waitress and ordered a lot of food. Soups, bread, plates with steaks, plates with chicken or fish, and even some octopus. She even got some dessert, which reminded Arthur of a brownie, and ate everything. The sole survivors were the actual plates.

Although Chris was not liking the idea of spending Arthur's money at first, when he noticed Arthur truly did not care about it, he also ordered lots of food. Truth be told, they had barely eaten during the trip, as they did not have the money to afford a lot of food.

"You will eat just that?" Chris asked, gazing at Arthur's plate.

Arthur got only a medium-sized steak and some vegetables with it. It was not a lot of food, especially for a young man like him, but it was more than enough.

He could last a lot of time without eating and would still be okay. Arthur made a mental note to one day try to see what was the longest period he could go on without eating, and seeing if it changed something, like his battle prowess. 𝑓𝙧𝘦𝘦we𝘣𝙣𝘰𝘃𝗲l.com

"Yeah, I am a light eater."

The restaurant they were in had normal people and also mages. If someone saw two first circle mages, and someone who had no mana at all, they would see them as easy prey, and that was exactly what happened.

Someone in the restaurant's corner was gazing at them, but that person had the power of a rank one mage, so both Chris and Cheryl did not notice the killing intent from that person, but Arthur did.

He looked at Chris and Cheryl, noticing they were too busy eating, so he tilted his head, looking directly at the eyes of the mage who was watching them.

For a moment, the mage froze, and the strength of his legs disappeared. He would have fallen into the ground if standing still, so the chair saved him in that regard.

"Who is that person? Is this a coincidence, or can he sense me?" The mage thought.

It had to be a coincidence, as there was no way a person without mana would notice him. The man was confident that even ordinary rank 1 mages would not notice his gaze, but a few seconds had passed, yet Arthur was still looking at him.

"Should I send him a mental message?" Arthur thought.

Now that he was rank 3, he could forcefully send mental messages to those who were weaker to him, even if they did not agree to it.

"Nah, he will know I am a lot stronger, and I am trying to keep it a low profile for now." 𝘧𝔯e𝗲𝙬ℯ𝙗𝓷o𝘷e𝗹.𝐜𝑜𝒎

Arthur slowly withdrawn his gaze from that mage, making him sigh in relief, and the strength of his legs returned.

"Is something wrong, Arthur?" Chris asked.

"No, not at all. How is the food?"

"Delicious!"

After the trio ate, Arthur paid for all of it, and they all left the restaurant, looking to explore the rest of the city.

What one could do inside a city? Eat good food, see the beautiful buildings, and of course spend money on things.

The two siblings did not think they would have the chance to buy something for them before, but Arthur insisted he would pay for the things, and the two accepted.

"Big bro, you are truly rich!"

"Yes, I am. You and your brother can buy things with no remorse."

They went into clothing shops, weapon shops, jewelry shops, and anything you could imagine. Chris and Cheryl got themselves some new clothes, jewelries, and Chris got a fine sword for himself.

It was not enchanted, but still made of fine materials.

"Can I truly get this? I don't know this feels wrong." Chris said, trying to give the sword. He just got back to Arthur.

"Get the sword, bro. It is not as if I have a use for it, anyway."

"Oh, right..."

Chris thought Arthur meant he was too weak to use the sword, but the sword was useless for someone as strong as him.

After a day of buying, the trio went to the best inn in the city, and the other students who were in the carriage with them were there too!

"Look who is here. And where the hell did you two get money? Aren't you two from a poor village? Guards! Someone stole something!"

One student yelled, and the others helped with it. It was their chance of messing up with Arthur, Chris and Cheryl.

Lots of guards quickly appeared, and perhaps it was bad luck, but a rank 2 mage appeared as well! And it was someone Arthur knew very well.
