Chapter 92: Life 61, Age 35, Martial Grandmaster Peak
Upon returning to the island, my first stop was the Blue Wind Pavilion. The services offered in local Pavilion branches were generally more limited than in the capital, but since North Lake City was home to so many of the kingdom’s craftsmen, it had a robust system to serve the various tradesmen.
“Hello, sir. How may I help you today?” asked an attendant as I entered.
I felt slightly awkward but tried to appear confident. “I need to purchase a variety of parts from beast carcasses.”
“Of course, right this way.”
She led me to the back of the shop floor where there were several counters. These counters only held an assortment of jade boxes of various sizes. It seemed that what I needed had to be stored carefully to remain fresh.
“This is the selection that we have in stock,” she said. “You can purchase anything here directly, but I must caution you that our selection is somewhat limited. If you need something specific, we may need to place an order with the branch in the capital, and if it is particularly unique, we will need to special order it.”
I looked at the labels on the various boxes and saw that they were mostly parts from Rank 1 beasts. These included various parts from flames chickens, chicken heads, chicken wings, and chicken feet, as well as parts of various horses, sheep, bulls, bears, tigers, and several other beasts. The selection of higher parts from higher Rank beasts was much more limited, but my focus was only on Rank 1 anyway.
“What about entire carcasses?” I asked her.
“We don’t keep those in supply. That’s something that will need to be ordered.”
