Chapter 27: I need a place to live
Mages weren’t only a single profession. One could become a runesmith, healer, a highly paid construction worker, pharmacist, and various other jobs that came up with it. Runesmiths and healers were high-level mage professions since they could only be practiced after one becomes an acolyte, while a construction mage could be learned before one could become an acolyte.
It was a whole level of information that Aric had accumulated after reading and researching for the last 2 days. It wasn’t easy to gather it either because this information was open to the public, and one didn’t need to write, so the information was all over the place. He could only take bits and pieces and understand in the end.
And he was glad that he took the time to understand. The table in the library and silence provided him enough time and patience to do his work. Now that he had the general idea of the situation around, he needed to work and get his footing.
Starting from this small city itself.
After coming out of the library, he went to the administration office. He needed registration for staying in this city. Basically, if one was a traveler, one wouldn’t need one, but if one wished to stay in the city, then that person would have to go to the administration office and register himself.
It was the medieval times; one wouldn’t need proof of his nationality, especially not from someone who wasn’t even a mage yet. Thus, it didn’t take much to register himself as a citizen of the Oakwood Empire, which cost him a single silver coin.
Here,
100 copper coins = 1 silver coin
150 silver coins = 1 gold coin
