"What"s up with att.i.tude, They are just foot soldiers, right?, Why do I feel like he"s looking at me like a bug that escaped his swatting, d.a.m.n! Shame man, I gotta find out why he is looking down on me this much?""Maybe it"s because I don"t have any cultivation like Illian said and they only respect strength here, I know I have read something like this is in novels, but seeing it became reality first hand is kinda harsh, I better adapt to this s.h.i.+t or else I may get killed by a foot soldier"
As Fia was digesting his words with her shocked face, The soldier got annoyed with her taking too long a time for deciding and with his hoa.r.s.e voice aloud he said "You got three breaths of time to wear the cuff or You Die"
"Huh? Ok Geez cool down I"ll wear it alright" said Fia hurriedly and brought the Silver Cuffs carved with intricate runes near her left hand and before she could place it on her hand, unexpectedly the cuff jumped out of her hand and attached itself on tightly, Fia felt a sting when it attached itself on her hand and then the silver cuff emitted a green glow around it, Fia looked at it amazed, as she inspected it curiously almost as if it was jewelry, she looked at the complex and detailed patterns carved on it, as the green glow flowed through the carvings as if it was fluid
While she was looking at the cuff on her hands dumbfounded, She heard a Familiar thud that sent vibrations down the earth and on her legs,
"_" "Huh?"
The next thing she knew, two soldiers were standing by her side soundlessly, that she was totally unaware of and she was astonished by how they managed to achieve this feat, They easily tricked past her senses, that helped throughout her journey till now and she has greatly considered it as one her powerful ability but now she was proven wrong by common soldiers,
They lifted her as easily as a doll and carried her past the entrance and threw her inside, she rolled and stood up as if nothing shameful had transpired and dusted off her clothes and stood straight and looked straight at the wide road, while her ears managed to caught a low sound from behind her saying "Peasant Sc.u.m"
Fia looked back to see who was the one who said it, and she found that it was one of the soldier sneering at her disdainfully
"Hey!, I have a system you b.a.s.t.a.r.d!, I"m a future powerhouse, Arggh... I"ll remember this" Fia gritted her teeth and walked forward while inspecting the Wonderous architecture of this magical world"s civilization, Every house was made in a black gla.s.s-like substance which is not transparent, considering other than the towers that looked translucent, the street was bustling with activity, Some were dressed in a neat dresses, like luxurious suits, fancy and colorful looking dresses, While she also come across people looking bleak and poor dressed in shabby clothes that were torn and st.i.tched countless time, she rarely came across people wearing robes, which she expected to see more
"Is there like a guide or something like that?, Let"s ask these nice looking folks about it"
Deciding to find information about how to remove this Silver cuff off her hands by hoping to find out how to get one of these medallions, Fia moved near a shop that was opened on the streets by a Average looking youth with short brown hair and he was dressed modestly in a white tunic and black pants, He was selling Fruits by shouting aloud "Forian Fruits in low price of 10 Bronze coins"
"Only 10 Bronze coins" He repeatedly hawked his products, hoping that someone would buy from him
He noticed Fia coming his way and said even more enthusiastically "Lady, Only 10 Bronze coins for a Forian Fruit, They are freshly harvested from Reissval Valley yesterday!"
"Haa, sorry The matter is, I don"t have any money, I was hoping to find out from you, how to remove these cuffs from my hands?, If you don"t mind" awkwardly stated Fia, really embarra.s.sed that her action has given him False hopes,
After hearing her words and realizing that she has no money to buy anything from him, he let out a rueful sigh and talked with an exhausted tone "So you"re a countryfolk Huh?, Why are you guys even coming here without a single connection or information beforehand, Do you have a death wish?"
After asking his questions and seeing the clueless face of Fia, he said "d.a.m.n, Kids these days, dumb as a rock, Listen if you don"t have any connections, and no cultivation, looking at your cuffs, It"s pretty obvious you have none, let me enlighten you with facts

Here"s a tip for you, the Restrain Cuff on your hands explodes within two Cosmic Time, if you didn"t manage to procure any of the two Medallions in time"
"Wow, T-Thank you for your time" Fia blurted out, as she digested all the information and was thankful that she found a chatty guy,
While she was wondering where the BlackOrder a.s.sociation Might be,
Unbeknown to her from, afar a pair of gleaming Purple colored eyes locked on to her and the figure had an amused smile on its face while saying out loud "Who Would have thought?, I would come across something This interesting? "
