On both sides of the road, pet cages were arranged and packed closely together There were rows of thehts, sizes, and colours Most of theantly dressed ladies and young female aristocrats shielded theh thethe pets that were for sale
Horse drawn carriages stopped beside the entrance along the lane as new custohted and entered the market

The ht the scarf and wrapped it around his head
Starting from the the left side of the h the street slowly

Up ahead, a plue an to introduce the clouded leopard pacing inside It was obvious that the lynx was feeling restless because of the heat
Further in front, a group of upper class woathered around a little pet shop that sold rabbits and squirrels, giggling softly from tiht grazed over the various cages His hts
"Ee tools, but must be left outside They also need to consus as well?" the thought crossed his mind suddenly
His face remained expressionless, as Garen continued to les, cheetahs, wildcats, hounds, pythons, and spiders were a the many other pets that could be found here
Suddenly, his feet stopped e aquariureat white shark swa this great white shark? If you purchase it now, I’ll also throw in a gift Every great white shark purchase comes with a free aquarium," said a friendly, thin man who smelled like the ocean
"I have other kinds of aquatic creatures here in my shop, and a few types of amphibians as well You can feel free to have a look Crocodiles, wolf fish, decorative goldfish, black-headed prawns, cylindrical snails, and jellyfish Anything you want, we’ll catch it for you!"
"Oh?" Garen declined to comment "I’d like to see the crocodiles"
"Please come inside, sir," said the slim man as he enthusiastically led Garen into the dark, da ti that the rich lords and ladies would have an affinity towards strange aquatic creatures He never expected his business to flop the entire tih for him to co so, thus it was only natural for him not to let this chance escape
Garen entered the shop He saw a deep pit in the left side of the shop, where two short-tailed crocs were crawling around lazily One of the crocodiles stretched its mouth wide open, as its sharp teeth snapped at a flock of little white birds
"On its own, the crocodile has a strong defensive armor If it was eer ht would become because of that" Garen wanted to buy the crocodile for its full body of tough armor Even if he decided to just raise it at hoain froain fro creatures
"I’d like a crocodile, so how much would that cost?"
"Just thirty thousand, thirty thousand silver rumbs Hehe," The skinny man was happier beyond his wildest expectations He never thought that he’d be able to seal a deal for a pet with a customer that just walked in
"Done Please send it to this address later" Garen took out a pen, and was about to write down the hotel’s address, before stopping himself abruptly "Hold on I’ll come back later and confirm the location with you Here’s the deposit"
Garen took out a thousand silver ru his na thethe aquatic pet shop, Garen continued journeying forwards and took his tiiant desert monitor lizards from a different pet shop All three of therown to be th Their skin felt like a kind of rough cloth when touched
Garen pressed his finger against the giant lizard’s skin and realised that it was actually quite tough
These three giant desert monitor lizards had only cost Garen ten thousand silver rumbs However, it was rumoured that these creatures could be used to foron Garen was interested to try this out, to see if it was possible to evolve the tote depended on the requirements for the core totem’s foundation to be met first
This kind of blue back lizard excelled in drilling holes and possessed swift lands that could cause paralysis They were extreence would allow them an opportunity to drill holes and escape Thus, the shop oas unable to sell them for their full price, which caused their value to decrease rapidly Never had he expected a customer like Garen, someone as so entranced by these creatures This shop oas also delighted beyond expectation, and decided to sell all three of his giant lizards to Garen
Next, Garen also purchased three grey feathered hawks These haere extremely fierce despite their small stature This particular female haas especially impressive, as it was often found with leopards in the northern highlands This was another creature that was superb even at its foundation level
