Chapter 2666: The Union(2)

"Most certainly, esteemed guest."

The maid gave a courteous bow before explaining, "The Union is split into five districts. The Southern District, Northern District, Western District, Eastern District, and the Central District, and we’re currently in the Central District."

"Since our city is quite small, we only have two teleportation devices, both of which you’ve already used, so you’ll have to travel on foot if you wish to explore the city. This area is only accessible through the teleport device, so you’ll have to use it to enter and leave this place."

"I see. Thanks for the information," Yuan said.

Just as he turned around and began walking away, the maid spoke again, "Excuse me, but are you going to leave without a disguise?"

Yuan halted after hearing such words, and he recalled what the Ironwoman told him before they arrived at the Union.

"I don’t have any mask on me," he said.

"We can provide that for you," she said with a smile.

"In that case..." Yuan nodded.

"Please follow me."

Yuan proceeded to follow the maid to another building about ten minutes away.

The interior of this building was just a long hallway with several rooms.

"Just enter any of these rooms and choose whichever disguise you like best," the maid gave a quick explanation.

"Alright."

Yuan walked into the room closest to the exit and was surprised to find it was essentially a massive walk-in closet, filled with thousands of masks and outfits ready for him.

Since he wasn’t picky about his appearance, he swiftly picked an ordinary black mask and a black outfit that fit perfectly to match it.

After spending not even five minutes inside, Yuan left the room and returned to the maid.

"I’m done."

"Then I will take you to the teleporter now," she said.

Shortly later, they arrived at the teleport device.

"You can step on the teleport device whenever you are ready," she said.

Yuan stepped onto the device the next moment and said, "Thanks for the help."

"I don’t deserve it, as I am only doing my job," she replied with a calm smile.

The next moment, Yuan vanished from the teleport device and returned to the docking area.

Then, he randomly picked one direction and walked in it.

As he walked through the streets, Yuan noticed that while there were many people wearing masks like him, there weren’t nearly as many as he had expected. In fact, roughly ninety percent of the people walked around openly with their faces uncovered.

Of course, he knew these people were likely locals, since only those from another city had any reason to keep their identity hidden.

The buildings in the city weren’t particularly impressive, either. Compared to Gaia’s Heaven, where skyscrapers were a common sight, most of the buildings here were no more than four stories tall.

After walking for some time and passing by many shops, Yuan stopped before a restaurant and stared at it in silence, thinking to himself that he hadn’t really eaten anything in a long time.

’I have some money from handing in Unknown Ores and Crystals... but how do I use it?’

Since he never had the opportunity to spend money, he never learned how to pay using the system.

After pondering for a bit, Yuan decided to enter the restaurant.

"Hello. Will you be dining alone?"

"Yes."

"Do you mind sharing a table with another customer? We’re a bit full right now. Otherwise, you’ll have to wait."

"I don’t mind."

"Great. Please follow me."

Yuan followed the waiter to his table, where another masked customer was already seated across from him, her attention focused entirely on the menu in her hands.

Yuan gave the individual a quick glance as he sat down, but swiftly turned his attention to the menu.

After looking through the menu to ensure he had enough money to pay for it, he gestured toward a waiter.

"Hello, are you ready to order?"

Yuan nodded and said, "I want one of everything on the menu. You can send them out one at a time since there is limited space."

"E-Everything on the menu?"

Not just the waiter; even the one seated in front of Yuan looked surprised. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

"Yes."

After a moment of silence, the waiter snapped out of his daze and said, "My apologies, but for an order this large, we’ll require payment upfront..."

Yuan nodded. "Sure."

"Please give me a moment."

The waiter left, then returned a few moments later with a palm-sized device with a crystal orb embedded in it.

Yuan didn’t ask any questions and placed his palm onto the crystal orb.

<Maple’s Dining has requested a payment of 7,122 Gaia Credits>

’Looks like Gaia Credits are universal...’ Yuan thought to himself as he confirmed the payment.

Once the waiter confirmed the payment, he bowed to Yuan and said, "Thank you for the payment. Your food will be out as soon as possible."

"I am also ready to order."

The individual sitting across from Yuan suddenly said.

Yuan raised an eyebrow after hearing her voice, as it sounded quite familiar.

"Of course. What would you like?"
