Chapter 87: Okay, now this is luxury
Aric couldn’t understand how could someone who was new to LOTR could go so deep into the story of LOTR. But then again he wasn’t complaining. Komin was related to the royal family and connections were important in this world, or in any world for that matter.
Komin spoke of LOTR in more length and Aric just went along with it.
"Let’s go and make you an official citizenship of Vallin." Komin said.
"Uh. I don’t have a background." Aric reminded Komin. Komin was surprised by this as he felt by this time he might have found his family but it seemed nothing had changed from the looks of things.
"Then I will be the guarantor." Komin replied without an ounce of hesitation.
"No. I will pay the price to be a citizen." Aric said. "And you can be as insurer."
There are two ways to be a citizen of Vallin. One was using someone from Vallin to recommend someone as the guarantor. If the new citizen commits any crime, the guarantor will have to pay a penalty, the graver the crime is, the more penalty one has to pay. And the other way was paying a sum of money to the monarch while getting a recommendation also called as an insurer and he wouldn’t be tied to the new citizen at all even if he or she committed a crime.
"Uh.. Okay.." Komin wanted to protest but he could see that Aric didn’t want to argue against it.
"Besides I ain’t here to talk about the citizenship. I will buy a home here for myself and I just want you to tag along." Aric said.
