Aljun was exploring the town and went into one of the taverns. He ordered some alcohol and slipped an extra payment of gold coin. The Bartender immediately asked Aljun after seeing the payment " What information do you want ""I want to know where I can hire some ships and mercenaries."
Go to the west side of the town and look for the name " Shaw " he can introduce you to some good ships and Naval mercenaries. Give him 2 gold coins he will immediately bring you to the place.
Aljun finished his drink and went straight to the west side of town. Aljun knew that mercenaries weren"t easily trusted, but he knew some can be trusted but they are not the same price as the ordinary mercenary group. They are also hard to find if you don"t have any cash. He wanted to use the mercenaries as bodyguards as the knights are very useless in naval warfare. So he decided to hire them to ensure the safety of the prince while traveling the seas.
He was also looking on hiring ships as he didn"t prepare any because he did not expect to happen the skirmishes in the west would happen earlier. The ship that can be hired weren"t cheap but others are actually ripping you off, so he also knew about these secrets where high-quality ships and sailors could be hired the same as the mercenary group, you can"t find them without cash.
He was walking and someone called Aljun
" Psst! " He turned around looking at the source of the sound and saw a very slim man who looked like a crook. The man spoke after he caught Aljun"s attention " Are you looking for someone "
Aljun immediately asked and said " Shaw"
The man immediately opened his palm to Aljun which look like was asking for something. Aljun immediately handed 2 Gold coins. After receiving the coins the man immediately asked Aljun to follow him.
Aljun followed him to an alleyway where no one was walking. The man immediately stopped in front of the door and knock. A voice from inside immediately asked him " who is it" he immediately replied, " It"s Shaw". The door immediately opened after hearing the name, Aljun and the man immediately entered the building.
Shaw immediately went to the center where a woman with a dark tanned skin which was seated behind a desk. She was wearing something that exposed her cleavage and tanned abs.
The woman immediately spoke after seeing Aljun " Well well what do we have here a customer, welcome to our humble office. What can I do for you today?
Aljun immediately replied, " I want to hire you for an escort mission."
The woman immediately showed a smile and replied back at Aljun " Well we do that but I remind you we are not that cheap. But since you found us, it means you have money".
How much will it be to hire you?
The woman still smiled " well it"s not just money that you can hire us. The cost will be 1000 gold coins as down payment, and another 1000 when we finish the mission. You also have to provide us with cannonb.a.l.l.s as well as food.
"Well, that is no problem" Aljun immediately gave her a bag of gold coins. Which contained 1000 gold coins. " As for food and cannonb.a.l.l.s make your men pick up them tonight. We will be leaving tomorrow morning ".
The woman immediately shakes Aljuns hand. " Nice doing business with you Mr. I hope you will be hiring the Black Shark Naval Mercenary Group.
Shaw and Aljun immediately left the building after that, Shaw brought him to another alleyway this time.
They went into another door this time and saw a man who looked in his 50s and had white hair and a long beard.
Shaw, you brought a customer again, well that"s no problem as long he pays. So you are planning to hire me and my ships. The price is not that affordable by some people.
"What"s the price" Aljun immediately asked the old man. The old man replied " The price is a 1000 gold coins for each ship, you must also give 1 gold coin to each of the crew, and you must be the one who will provide the daily necessities of the crew. You must know that my ships are one the best as well as my crew. "
Aljun immediately agreed with the man and paid 2000 gold coins for renting 2 ships. And ask him to make his men pick up the items which they requested. "We will be moving out tomorrow morning. "
Aljun immediately went to buy the items that were also paid to the hired people.
Aljun was exhausted after that and went straight to the INN to get some sleep.

They were going to the east heading to one of Sirius port City. The travel was gonna take a week with their speed.
Eric was looking at the port which they left, he then looked at the clear blue sea and saw some fishing boats catching fish. The children who were helping their parents in catching fish waved to the ship.
The 5 ships were sailing calmly on the sea. Eric was enjoying the view of the sea. But he noticed that Anya was vomiting, he forgot that Anya gets seasick easily.
"I just hope this goes calmly as we travel on land."
Aljun was speaking with the old man.
Duke Allan"s navy has subjugated the monsters so it is much safer to travel in the sea now. Pirates will be the biggest problem, but you hired some mercenaries so we don"t have to worry about being attacked. " said the old man"
"I hope your right old man."
