In the carriage leaving the mansion of Grand Duke Rundel;

Steve bowed politely to Baroness Allen, who was unconscious and had a big bump on her head. He then instantly activated [Void Jump] and disappeared.

Tonight, he planned to find a random place to deal with it. Tomorrow, he would not go anywhere when he got up. He would first go to the secret magic shop in Waterdeep City to buy a [Transformation Ring].

Just as he was walking through the dark alleys of Waterdeep's dock area, the belatedly aware garbage system popped up again to make its presence felt;

Steve waved his hand to get rid of the system panel in his sight and muttered calmly.

"Garbage system."

Contract Knowledge and Secret Knowledge were knowledge he had already mastered a long time ago, but this crap was only updated now;

The worst thing is that this system makes a crackling noise from time to time, just like a bad model big-butt TV.

Time passed, and Steve, who had spent a night wandering around the warehouses in the dock area, walked refreshed on the increasingly bustling street, heading towards the trade market in the central part of the south city.

Speaking of trade fairs, we have to mention the three most famous trades in Waterdeep;

ocean trade, the fur trade, and most notoriously, the slave trade;

As a trade window close to the central region but still belonging to the North, Waterdeep is home to a large number of merchants eager to make a fortune.

These people traveled throughout the North, exchanging cheap food and salt for large amounts of furs from surrounding villages.

Especially in the Endless Wilds, where there is nothing but plenty of fur;

Although nearly half of the merchants were robbed by orcs every year, and both their goods and people were taken away by the orcs, the huge trade deficit still attracted countless young people eager to make a fortune;

At the same time, these merchants were not just fur traders, they did not mind playing the role of slave traders if it suited them;

Orcs, orcs, the barbarians, the human subspecies from the North, half-elves, and even elves, they would strike if the situation was right;

However, apart from beautiful half-elves and elves, slaves of other races could not be sold at a high price in Waterdeep.

The barbarians who were completely untamable could only generate greater value by being sent to the southern slave owners through ocean trade;

The slave owners who controlled a large number of gladiatorial arenas particularly favored these barbarians who were strong enough to wrestle with orcs and wild beasts;

The prosperous ocean trade also gave rise to a large number of pirates;

The Misty Sea east of the North, the Saint Paul Sea east of the Central Region, the Blue Sea east of the Southern Desert, and the Torn Ocean east of the entire continent, far from the coastline;

There are eight legendary great pirates in the three seas and one ocean, and there are countless other small pirates belonging to various forces.

Especially the blue sea in the south, the large number of offshore islands and the howling monsoons all year round provide fertile soil for the rapid growth of pirates.

Therefore, the Blue Sea became the only vast ocean among the three seas that had three legendary pirates.

The abundant resources in the North have contributed to the prosperous trade in Waterdeep.

Squeezing through the crowd, Steve lowered his head and went into a small shop on the edge of the central trade square.

After a while, he went into an alley with a green ring on his hand that looked like it was made of vines.

Not long after he entered the alley, an ordinary middle-aged man outside the alley frowned and withdrew his gaze from the alley.

"Lost, damn outsider, no rules at all."

What he complained about was Steve's unscrupulous behavior of stealing things everywhere.

After muttering silently, the ordinary middle-aged man restrained the unnecessary expression on his face, turned around and squeezed into the surging crowd.

Not long after he left, in the shop next to the entrance of the alley;

Steve, who is just over 5 feet tall (about 1.7 meters) and looks very ordinary, walked out of the store while adjusting the gray fingerless gloves on his hands.

He planned to go home first to deal with the spoils, and then go to the house of Viscount Lowell, who liked to abuse female humanoid cubs, to check out the place.

Quietly return to the Tieti Street stronghold, open the underground passage, and activate the [Invisibility Ring];

After standing at the entrance of the channel and waiting for half a whole day, Steve still didn't catch the big fish he wanted.

He sealed the entrance to Tieti Street expressionlessly and returned to his home outside the city;

Just as he showed his head, a huge stick with hideous spikes hit his head hard.

At the same time, with tears in his eyes and snot hanging down his face, Bobby roared at him with red eyes:

"Damn...bastard!!! You actually...you...you actually ate my Steve!"

shuh~

The extremely heavy spiked club passed through Steve's head with a whistling sound.

Facing Poppy who was about to lose control, Steve reached out and took off the vine-shaped [Transformation Ring] in his hand, and shouted loudly:

"Bobby! Quiet! It's me, it's me, it's Steve!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the stick that was about to hit him again suddenly stopped. Bobby, with his face covered with snot and tears, tried to open his eyes wide, and looked at Steve who was gradually returning to his original form in front of him with suspicion, and then he burst into laughter.

"I...I smelled you, but...but...it wasn't you...I..I thought you were eaten!"

Bobby threw the stick aside and wiped the snot from his nostrils with his big hands.

Faced with Bobby's pure concern, Steve patted Bobby's belly with emotion and comforted him:

"Don't worry, Bobby. Bad guys are hard to kill."

"Ok!"

Bobby, whose face was covered with snot and tears, nodded heavily.
