149 Gri

The grandeur of buildings was evident in it's greatest eminence.

This city represents one of the most flourished cities of this Manias.

Jen was looking at the grand buildings with awe, the Celestial Sphere was advanced in many ways to her home ground.

And it should be because it was a higher level sphere.

As soon as they entered the city, Jen could see the gazes of people toward the little animal beside her.

Two freshly advanced disciples of contemplation school were also there, they were knowledgeable in many aspects since they were geniuses of their school.

Today they were here for a walk in the city and enjoyment.

Jen was crossing their path and they were earnestly looking at her pet animal.

She was heading toward Eke House.

They stepped toward her, it was a busy market, a publicity girl of a restaurant ran to stop the two young men seeing them wealthy.

She almost blocked their way.

"Sir! you seeming hungry...our Greasy Spoon Beanery provides the best food provisions... you could also enjoy entertainment there...!"

she was a.s.signed to catch up wealthy foodies at any cost.

"Sure! If you could invite that girl to eat at your restaurant...we could consider eating there...!" one of the two pointed toward the direction where Jen was standing waiting for her way to clear up to go forward, Eke House was just a street away.

The girl got excited to hear this, she asked them to wait for her and ran in the direction.

She ran to reach Jen and stopped her.

Jen looked at her with a puzzled look.

"Miss! you seeming hungry...our Greasy Spoon Beanery provides the best food provisions... you could also enjoy the best euphony there...!" she repeated the hundred times practiced words hoping to hook Jen.

Jen shook her head, "I am not that hungry_!"

The girl was at loss, how she could convince this potential customer if she was not hungry.

She looked back at the two men, they gestured that if she failed, they would not go in the eatery.

"Miss! perhaps your pet must be hungry..!" Jen looked at Mini Mosa and its belly grumbled.

Jen frowned, did not you eat a few hours ago? you got hungry again, her own belly grumbled this time, was that too late when we eat last?

"Human! you should care about your diet... another way you might lose the beautifully hydrated skin of your...!" Mini Mosa stood on hind legs and tilted her head upward as to tell the world that this creature was also blessed with brain along with beauty.

Jen gestured the girl to lead them.

Two men saw them and entered the restaurant.

They were given a table with some formal decoration, as expected to a city eatery, Jen ordered whatever was a popular dish, and waited.

Two men noticed that the girl was outside and that she was not told that the dish she ordered was of exorbitant price.

They gestured the same attendant to not bother that girl with the bill, they would pay instead.

Attendant reluctantly admitted but it was his responsibility to inform the girl that someone was paying her bill in advance.

Attendant presented the food very carefully and then cleared his throat to talk to the girl.

"Miss! someone paid your bill in advance, enjoy your meal here, do you need anything else?" attendant bowed with respect.

Jen was astounded to hear and gulped down the mouthful food immediately, "Does that someone paid for all the tables here or just this one?" she arched her brow after hearing the attendant.

"I am not sure miss, perhaps no...!" he swayed to see her threatening eyes and the words stuck in his mouth.

"Then I need to know who is that blind generous_!" she did not take another spoonful, her appet.i.te was gone to hear the attendant.

The attendant pointed toward a table where two men were sitting.

This was the goal of these two men to catch her attention.

"Tell them, I could pay my meal_!" she instructed the attendant.

Mini Mosa was still eating like famished for several days.

The attendant moved to the two men and told what the girl said, one of them waved his hand, "Tell her, we don't back down from our actions once put up...!" he wanted to know how much this girl could face their superiority and how she would react.

"I can pay...and no one could force me to submit...!" Jen answered flatly.

Attendant scratched his head, today he was supposed to promote and now it seemed that between these two parties, he would become sacrificed lamb.

The attendant went back to them.

"It would not affect our riches...if we treat some random people...!" the man did not budge.

"There are many others who should cherish the generosity of wealthy and if you are that wealthy, you should treat poor in this expensive eatery...!" she shook her head with disappointment, now she was sure they were up to something else.

Mini Mosa could see this, she also stopped eating to look the bad mood of the human.

Both tables were on some distance and there was no other table between these two tables.

The man was displeased after her consecutive denial.

He stood up and released his dominion, he was definitely a Sage, Jen stood up too. They did not move from their spots but the tension rose up around because of two dominions.

Jen wiped the cold sweat off her forehead.

The man got dumbstruck that his dominion did not get her to kneel down.

They sat again, retracting their dominions because the administration of the eatery intercept in the matter, two men did not drag it thus.

"I am regretful, I insisted on bringing you here_!" Mini Mosa was feeling mournful after looking at a possible threat.

"I remember, my belly also grumbled at that time_!" Jen related honestly.

Mini Mosa thought that human was only trying to lessen her sorriness.

Two men came toward her table and sat there, "This miss! I am impressed with your grit...!" one of them arched his lips.

"I am also impressed with your despicable manners_there is no need to stand on ceremony_I mean_!" Jen waves her hand.

Tension rose up once again, the man gritted his teeth and looked at Mini Mosa and said, "I wanted to buy your pet...don't worry price would excel your expectations.

This time Mini Mosa frowned, " How dare you to call me pet...you despicable human...do you have a sense of shame...!" Mini Mosa was gritting head to toe.

"My pet is not for sell_!" Jen stood up to hear them.

'That's right, I am not for sale, what? you called me pet too?' Mini Mosa was now speechless.

"We offer a hundred times the price you have in your mind...!" the man followed her behind.

"I don't want to talk further... remember I am not selling this pet...!" Jen turned and glared.

"We wanted to make it peacefully yet you are reluctant...do you dare to accept my challenge... if you won I'll let you go an apology for my conduct... and if I won you will handover this pet with no more excuses... do you dare...!" this time second man initiated.

Both were geniuses of contemplation school, if words were to spread that they forcefully s.n.a.t.c.hed something from a guest of this Manias, they would face shame.

There was an unwritten rule that the outsiders were treated as guests in this Manias and no one was allowed to hinder them, only in case they commit a consequential crime.

'Don't accept, its a trape, he wanted to s.n.a.t.c.h me at any cost,' Mini Mosa closed her eyes and murmured, Jen should not accept this challenge.

Mini Mosa was ignorant that if she did not accept the challenge, they would knit another excuse to fight and attack if she accepted the challenge, she had to win it.

This was the first time that someone challenged Jen. There was no way to back down. She could not possibly hand over Mini Mosa to these men, she was supposed to send her back to her dwelling.

If she could not pay back a small promise then she was done for.

"Tomorrow, at Challenger Ring, remember...!" the man pointed his finger toward her face.

It was getting evening and they were not in a hurry to s.n.a.t.c.h her pet immediately.

They don't fear that the girl might run away from here, they tested her temper and nature when they offered to pay her bill. This gritty girl would face instead to run away, they were sure now.

Jen walked toward Eke House. She hoped that no one distracts her again this time.

Mini Mosa dragged her feet behind her.

It was a lush building, gleaming with lights.

Jen and little animal entered in the building.

"I wanted to buy Ace Store...may I know if I can...!" Jen reached to the reception counter and asked.

"Ma'am you are at the right place...but we need to register your ident.i.ty... because it is related to the process of buying any grade two objects such as Ace Store either you buy low grade, intermediate grade or pinnacle grade...!" receptionist fluent some information on her.
