High-Class Mob 60 60. To the Thunder Tiger Mountain

Passing through the gates of the city, Colt and Mina were led to an inn where they would be staying for the night.

The afternoon, Colt and Mina stayed inside the inn at least until Mina proposed for her and Colt to walk around town.

Colt started thinking about it and shrugged his shoulders, thinking, "Why not?"

The cats stayed in the inn as they resumed their training. Only Colt and Mina came out to experience the city.

It had been too long since Colt and Mina came out without anyone and because no one can actually match Mina's combat capabilities in their group, Colt managed to shake the guards away and just had them watch from the shadows.

He also knows that spontaneous danger may arise so he had them wander around silently so that public order will not be affected by a 'possession'.

Walking by the wide paved road of the Azure Skies city was pleasant for Colt. As he held Mina's hands with confidence, they walked down the road whilst enjoying the view while the populace enjoyed the view of two lovely couple enjoying their youth.

Mina walked around with a big smile on her face, as her untied hair bobbed up and down as she dragged Colt to a stall, her smile had never been brighter. They reached the area where the market dedicated to food stalls and souvenirs…so basically the street market.

The couple stopped at a stall selling glistening skewers. The smoke coming from the stall was not black nor gray but a beautiful color of blue. The smell of the smoke was not suffocating either, as it was fragrant.

"Come and try the city's specialty, Brobo Bird skewers grilled over Lightning Wood!"

"May I?" the meat caught Mina's attention and she stopped and asked in a very innocent manner.

The stall owner was a big and burly man making him seemed like a mercenary. The name of his stall

"Hooh, is this beautiful missy interested!? Gahahaha! Why don't you try some, on the house!"

Mina accepted the skewers and looked a bit hesitant, asking, "Can I really?"

"Gahaha, enjoy it is good publicity to see such a beautiful lass enjoy the food of us common people. Mister boyfriend, why not try some for yourself!?"

Colt watched the owner of the stall laughed and he too was given a skewer to try. The skewer they were given had five cubes of meat skewered by a stick, the meat was perfectly cut as it was done by a swordmaster and the meat was glistening with meat juices.

The fragrance wafted over to Colt's nose intoxicating his mind and urging him to take a bite. As soon as his teeth sunk to the freshly cooked skewers, its juices flooded his mouth and the exquisite harmony of flavor exploded.

"It's delicious."

A pleasant surprise rocked Colt. The harmony of the flavor between saltiness, sweetness, and spiciness gave Colt a pleasant surprise.

"Gahahaha, you're goddamn right it's good. This recipe stems down from three generations and every generation it nears perfection, this is the tastiest it had ever been! But still, the wood we use is still the same old Lightning Wood!"

The mercenary-like owner was proud of his creations and Colt asked for ten more skewers to eat. Mina on the other hand bought five before haggling for the recipe to be leaked to her so she can serve it to Colt.

The mercenary-like owner merely laughed before the negotiation began. Colt on one side ate the skewers while enjoying the serenity of the surrounding. As he, Colt Edgeworth watched the frolicking children and people buying some memorabilia that is exclusive to this city.

While he enjoyed the peacefulness and the background noise of the lovely haggling of his dear soon-to-wife. However, as Colt looked around a person garbed in a black cloak passed by him and then entered the alley nearby.

Colt saw this and immediately thought, 'Something's not right.'

However, he is not going to follow the man for the possibility of that man being a part of some unknown organization is very much plausible. Colt could die so to hell with going to investigate.

'I just need to…hmm?' As he was thinking, he looked down and saw a golden pin that was not there before. The pin had intricate etchings on its surface and it seemed really important. Colt picked it up and looked at the alleyway.

'This must have belonged to that person…' he looked at the alleyway and threw the pin just near the entrance to the alley, 'Meh, I'm not going there just for some pin. But what's that weird feeling I just felt?'

For a moment he was tempted to go inside the alley. But as he found his forehead itchy, he shook his head to the idea.

"Dear, let us go."

Mina called out and Colt turned to her. He then saw the burnt-out man who seemed to have gone to a rough fight and seeing Mina so cheerful, it was clear that she got what she wanted.

'What the hell happened?' He questioned but didn't dwell on the matter. As he looked at the alley, he merely shrugged his shoulder and continued on his way. Later, the cloaked person would return to find the pin and as he found it, he looked at the direction where Colt disappeared to.

"It didn't work on him? It seems like his mind is stronger than we thought." Then he disappeared into the darkness.

Night came and after finishing his training, Colt went to sleep with Mina by his side. The cat army also slept on the floor with them. When morning came, it was finally time for Mina and Colt to find their respective items.

In front of the inn, Mina and Colt boarded the carriage and left. They are headed westward, finally, to venture to the Thunder Tiger Mountain.

Mina's goal is to find ore for her wand and as for Colt, his goal is to get the treasure devoured the mountain and caused for the Thunder Tiger Mountain to disappear, an ancient artifact named World Devouring Book!

But as they left, his forehead itched once again as he boarded the carriage and then Fluff's ears went up. It seemed serious for a moment but it purred like it was in heat as Colt rubbed its belly.

'Nyaaaaa~' it as in bliss.
