I Have a Sailing Game-Chapter 133 - 124: Exorcist

Inside Giant Claw City.

Compared to the architecture of Nadewilo, the buildings in Giant Claw City are arranged more densely, are taller, and have more variety.

After some searching, Rogel and Lina finally arrived at the entrance of a chamber of commerce.

Bafu Chamber of Commerce.

Many people were coming and going, most of them wealthy townspeople, looking well-dressed and glamorous.

The Bafu Chamber of Commerce is precisely the one where Lina’s parents used to work.

As soon as the two entered the Bafu Chamber of Commerce, a middle-aged man greeted them with a smile.

"How can I assist you two today?"

"Are you shipping goods or sending small items?"

"Of course, we also offer other services, like traveling by ship..."

Lina shook her head, "None of those, I’m here to find out about my parents’ whereabouts."

The middle-aged man’s smile diminished upon hearing this, and he furrowed his brow in thought.

"Could you please be more specific, Miss?"

After taking a deep breath, Lina recounted the story of her parents’ disappearance six years ago.

Upon hearing Lina’s story, his brow furrowed even more.

"Miss, our chamber of commerce has a wide range of operations. Occasionally, we inevitably encounter some unfortunate accidents..."

"I’m deeply sorry for your parents’ plight. They are heroes in our chamber of commerce, but the voyage records from six years ago are quite challenging to locate..."

He looked visibly troubled.

Upon hearing this, Lina’s expression darkened.

This response was within her expectations.

"Sir."

Rogel stepped forward, placing a hand on his shoulder, and led him to a corner, slipping a few gold coins into his pocket.

"My friend has been distressed over this and is wasting away, which is why I traveled from afar..."

"I’m sure you understand the pain of losing parents..."

"We don’t ask for much, just a clue would be enough, so please, do help us..."

Rogel spoke sincerely in a low voice, the words rolling off his tongue effortlessly.

"This..."

The man hesitated for a moment after hearing Rogel’s plea.

According to the chamber’s rules, he could actually help.

But matters from six years ago... just thinking about it is a headache.

However...

The heavy weight of the gold coins in his pocket unconsciously eased the furrow in his brow.

Rogel’s offer was equivalent to several months’ salary, and after all, it was just searching for something. Why not help when asked?

"I must say, you’re a virtuous and respectable husband."

He smiled warmly.

"I’ll look into the records immediately, so please wait a moment."

Rogel clasped his hand warmly, "We really appreciate this."

Feeling the weight in his hand, the man’s brow twitched involuntarily, his smile growing wider.

"This is our duty!"

"Please wait!"

After placing the gold coins in his pocket, he turned, instructed an employee, and hurried towards the back door.

Two employees promptly greeted them with smiles, respectfully escorting them to a private room, serving them with desserts and tea.

The stark difference in treatment caused Lina to frown slightly.

"What did you tell him?"

"Money makes the world go round."

Rogel popped a dessert into his mouth from the table.

After hearing Rogel’s words, Lina understood naturally.

But she wasn’t in the mood to discuss such things; she sat anxiously, occasionally glancing towards the direction the man left.

About ten minutes later, the middle-aged man returned quickly with a file in his hand.

His forehead gleamed with a bit of sweat, but his face bore a broad smile: "Thank you for waiting."

"This is the file concerning your wife’s parents’ voyage and accident investigation."

Lina hurriedly took the file, ignoring his reference mistake.

Rogel thanked him and the two began to examine it together.

...

With the escort of the chamber’s manager, the two left the Bafu Chamber of Commerce.

The voyage record and accident investigation file provided by the Bafu Chamber of Commerce seemed normal.

According to the records, Lina’s parents indeed encountered a massive tsunami, and the merchant ship sank, resulting in their deaths.

There were no dramatic stories or involvement from other people.

The chamber even managed to salvage some shipwrecks, and because Rogel paid enough, the manager even offered to take them to see it.

Upon getting the answers, Lina felt like a long-standing weight had been lifted from her heart.

"Thank you, Rogel." Lina looked at Rogel, biting her lip, "Thank you for doing so much for me."

"It’s nothing."

Rogel shook his head.

Just as Rogel was about to speak words of comfort, Lina suddenly hugged his waist.

"Without you, I might not have had the courage to come here..."

Feeling her soft body, Rogel blushed slightly but pretended to scratch his head casually.

"I’m the captain, after all. This is what I’m supposed to do..."

Thank goodness it’s not a game perspective!

This is a win!

Seeing Rogel’s cheeks flush, Lina revealed a soft smile as she remained in his arms.

She released him and tidied her hair to hide her flushed cheeks from Rogel.

"Aren’t you looking for magic potion materials? Let’s go, I’ll accompany you."

Actually, you can hug me longer; it doesn’t matter if this gets delayed...

Rogel lamented inwardly.

...

On the surface, Giant Claw City seems to have no materials or items related to the Extraordinary.

Rogel and his companion searched around but found nothing.

However, after giving it some thought, Rogel came up with an idea.

He skillfully located a few unlucky thugs in the alley, and after some kind and friendly conversation, he obtained the location of the Giant Claw City black market.

In the black market, Rogel finally spotted traces of some extraordinary items.

[Cave Fungus Filament]

[Type: Material]

[Quality: Green]

[Explanation: A filament that occasionally appears in caves, used in making some magic potions or potions.]

Rogel didn’t particularly like to deliberately collect these materials.

Since they were available for sale here, he decided to buy and stock up on them, especially since he had plenty of money.

After spending a few silver coins, Rogel acquired some useful magic potion ingredients.

However, just as Rogel was about to continue browsing other items in the black market, the stall owner called out to him.

"Excuse me, sir, please wait."

His voice was hoarse, and it sounded oddly hoarse, as if his throat had been injured, with a bit of a leaky feel.

"I wonder if you might be interested in this item."

With that, he took out a wrapped cloth from behind, which contained a small pile of light blue fibrous material.

[Sharp-Horned Whale Fragrance]

[Type: Material]

[Quality: Purple]

[Explanation: After a sharp-horned whale’s fall, a special plant is formed, and the fragrance comes from this plant.]

This was exactly the Sharp-Horned Whale Fragrance Rogel needed!

The Deep Sea Blood Touch had searched for many days but found no trace, and unexpectedly stumbled upon it here.

He paused in his steps.

After sizing up the stall owner, he frowned for a moment, getting the feeling that the stall owner’s intention was not simply to sell goods.

"Is there something you want?"

Rogel didn’t respond to his question but asked in return.

Simultaneously, he checked his information.

[Human]

[Type: Creature]

[Quality: Elite]

[Level: 8]

[Tier: Normal]

Normal person?

Rogel was somewhat surprised.

He had assumed the person in front of him would be extraordinary.

In response, the stall owner didn’t beat around the bush and directly stated to Rogel: "If you have the means to make Magic Potions, I might provide you with some of the materials you want." 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Beneath his hood, Rogel squinted his eyes.

Indeed, this person had ulterior motives and was here for the magic potions.

Beside him, Lina also instantly became alert upon hearing this.

"If you are interested, perhaps we should discuss this somewhere else."

After pondering for a moment, Rogel nodded: "Alright."

The materials for magic potions were indeed difficult to gather.

If Rogel relied solely on himself, who knows when he might find them.

But if there were other extraordinaries, the situation might change.

For this reason, taking some risks was also worth it.

After hearing Rogel’s affirmative response, the stall owner did not hesitate to pack up his stall and motioned for Rogel to leave with him.

This caused a customer who had just been about to make a purchase to curse.

However, along the way, the three encountered a small incident.

Ahead, two burly men with face masks walked toward Rogel without any intention of avoiding him, as if intending to collide with him.

With a loud bang and a scream, one of the men was kicked into the air by the stall owner next to him.

"Get lost, vermin."

His voice was hoarse and icy.

Under the hood, only a pair of eyes glared intently at the other person.

Seeing they were not to be messed with, the two men swallowed nervously and ran off.

In response, Rogel was thoughtful.

It seemed this person indeed possessed power beyond the ordinary, but why did his tier show as normal?

Could it be that his Extraordinary Power came from an external source?

The three found a private room in a tavern and sat down.

Once seated, the person lifted his hood and face mask, revealing white hair and snake-like vertical pupils.

"Let me introduce myself, my name is Hudson, and I’m an Exorcist."

Though he had white hair, he appeared relatively young, only looking to be in his thirties or forties, with an aura that was somewhat cold.

"I’m Rogel," he simply replied and then frowned, "Exorcist?"

Hudson didn’t mind Rogel’s somewhat perfunctory introduction; instead, he answered Rogel’s question.

"An Exorcist is not exactly extraordinary, but we do wield some Extraordinary Power."

"We generally deal with things like the undead and resentful souls."

Hudson appeared calm.

After listening, Rogel nodded: "Let’s get back to the primary topic."

"How do you intend to transact?"

Hudson was dependent on him, so Rogel maintained the upper hand in the conversation.

Hudson was smart and well aware of this, speaking straightforwardly.

"I need someone to brew a magic potion for me."

"I have the prepared formula and materials here."

After speaking, Hudson took out the previous cloth bundle and pushed it in front of Rogel.

"I’ll do my best to provide any materials you need."

"The fee for brewing the magic potion will be negotiated separately."

His sincerity was apparent, and his preparation was thorough.
