Chapter 166: Crashing through a roof
"Alright, let's see what they have," Irwin muttered.
He pushed open the door and stepped into a surprisingly clean and well-maintained shop. A few people moved around the room, looking at items on overfull tables or objects behind crystal-covered wall cabinets. To his surprise, there was even a cabinet filled with dozens, if not close to a hundred cards.
There was no sign of sails, but that didn't surprise him. They probably wouldn't fit or take up too much space.
A tall man with long purple hair and bright teal eyes stood behind a desk, looking around before meeting his gaze and holding it. Seeing the sunken cheeks and wide eyes, Irwin sighed as he realized the boy outside likely hadn't been malnourished at all. The man gave him the same impression, meaning it was likely just a trademark of their species.
Making his way to the desk, he saw the man hadn't let him out of his sight.
Do I look like I'm going to steal something?
"Greetings. I was told you have used sails here?" he asked.
The man watched him for a moment longer before nodding. "I have three sets of second-hand sails. One for a ship two-master, the others are for three-masters."
Irwin frowned as he realized he didn't know which types of sails he needed. Did all ships with two masts have the same sails? The three ships they had fought had a similar setup as the Zura'ix of Xi'kroak, with one triangular sail at the front and a larger one midship. He guessed that meant it had to be the first set...
"What does the two-mast sail cost?" he asked.
"Seventeen-thousand four-hundred soulshards," the man said without batting an eye.
Irwin blinked.
