Anton explored the city of Whaling looking for bazaars and markets where he could purchase items that he could repair and resell and after around three hours, he earned around a thousand gold coins.
He didn’t overdo it that day so his actions were unnoticeable, not that he was trying to be that but at least nobody targeted him because of having too many coins.
The moment he started his shopping spree though, it became highly noticeable since he did purchase a huge amount of things. From restaurants, he purchased countless cooked foods and he didn’t hide the actions of storing the food that he ordered using either a spatial item or spatial magic. He did have to pay extra for the food containers though but with the amount of gold coins that he was letting go, the restaurant owners didn’t complain.
Anton also purchased uncooked food like grains, fruits, herbs, and vegetables and stored them in his Private stash. He also collected a huge amount of spices. He also made sure to purchase a lot of other things like toiletries, clothes, blankets, mattresses, pillows, and anything under the sun that he could think of.
While walking around, some tried to accost him though since a huge number of people noticed how rich he was but the moment he showed off his magic by activating his auras, those would-be robbers immediately ran off. Anton didn’t pursue them since in his opinion, it wasn’t worth it to spend his precious time with those people.
Overall, it was a highly profitable and entertaining day for Anton. It was fun shopping around especially since he didn’t need to carry all the things he purchased and just stored them directly to his private stash. The salesperson also helped him a lot since they suggested items that he would have never thought of purchasing like kayaks, hammocks, tents, and more.
It was understandable since it was their job and he did give those who assisted him a rather large tip. Anton was generous since he was truly pessimistic and thought of the fact that sooner or later, these people would probably try to escape from the clutches of the undead.
It was evening when he returned to the inn and he managed to purchase a huge amount of items but his number of coins remained the same since during the last couple of hours, he returned to his business of buying, repairing, and selling things.
When he arrived back at the inn, they decided to stay in their suite and order food for dinner. Everyone reported what they did that day. Anders, Nemina, and Lucas continued selling their inventory and they also started selling the enchanted items that Anton had made. Lunelle purchased a lot of things that they deemed necessary for their journey while Anna spent the day touring the city with her few friends.
Devon, Frederick, and Colin collected a huge amount of information about the possible places they could go to and Anton just told everyone that he just roamed around the city.
After dinner, everyone rested since they were all tired of the work they did that day. Anton didn’t plan to continue roaming around and would just focus on leveling up and creating enchanted items that would help them in their journey.
He did plan to go out the next day for a couple of hours to purchase some sculptures to enchant and would also commission some large wooden boards that he could enchant with to create a hoverboard. Right now, he only managed to create around three hoverboards but he felt like he needed more.

The next day after breakfast, everyone went their way to continue their business while Anton went directly to shops that sold wooden and metal sculptures and purchased some. He also went to a carpenter and commissioned some huge wooden boards and since the design was simple enough, it didn’t take long for the carpenters to provide him with several wooden boards.
After that, he returned to the inn to begin the process of enchanting all the items that he purchased. It didn’t take long for him to complete them since there weren’t a lot of them since the items were supposed to be for their personal use. Then he spent the rest of the day leveling up his necromancer character.
Anton completed Act III of the normal difficulty for his necromancer character and he reached level thirty. He planned to commit his whole day the next day leveling up since he wanted to reach a very high level on his necromancer before they left Whaling.
When evening arrived, everyone gathered in the suite to have a meeting and report what everyone had done. After that Anders told everyone that the next day would be a rest day since everyone looked exhausted.
Anton had to admit that they hadn’t rested ever since they arrived in Whaling and himself, who he considered the laziest in the group, was busy so it was just right for them to rest.
Everyone was excited when they heard Anders command that the next day everyone could do whatever they wanted. Anna requested to watch a movie and their father agreed so Anton would show them a movie the next day. Anders also allowed Anna to invite her friends and their parents.
During dinner, they also talked about the different characteristics of the continent and the country within them that they had learned so far but the fact of the matter was, that there weren’t too many choices since there were only three ships that were currently docked and all of them would leave the next week so they had around four days to decide.
They considered the continents carefully and they knew that they had only two choices left. One was the Huoxi continent and the other was the Gale continent. Most of them were leaning towards the Gale continent for two simple reasons. First, the language was mostly the same as Rendindura. The only difference was the accent and some of the words. Second, it was eight months away from Rendindura which was truly far away and that meant that there was little chance that the undead would turn their gaze towards the continent.
They wanted to avoid Huoxi since according to all the information that they had heard, it was filled with extremely powerful beings and the continent was chaotic, full of war. It was said that the one major rule in Houxi right now was strength matters above all else.
They spent several hours considering which place to go but one important thing stayed in everyone’s mind. Since the travel time was very long, it would be very gruesome.
Anton was a little apprehensive since almost a year in the ocean, anything could happen and because of that, he changed his mind about focusing on leveling up the next day. Instead, he would spend a few hours in the morning earning gold coins and then spending his coins on purchasing more items that he could store in his private stash and inventory. Since anything that he stored there would remain fresh, more was better.
After dinner, Anton went to his bedroom after taking a bath and decided to unwind a bit by watching some videos but he couldn’t concentrate. There was this apprehension that was growing inside of him and he couldn’t figure out where it came from.
When his father entered the room Anton talked to his father.
“Father, for some reason I’m beginning to grow some weird apprehension inside of me and I’m thinking that my magic is warning me somehow. Can we go to ship heading toward the Gale Continent and purchase tickets?”
Anders stared at his son and Anton could see some doubt in his father’s eyes but that doubt disappeared since Anton’s magic did save their family so Anders decided to follow Anton’s suggestion.
