BXBX NOVEL Chapter 121 - Storage Pouch
"Y-you can use my Storage Pouch to store them…"
Ban looked at the head-size brown pouch that Belle offered.
As far as he knew, a Storage Pouch was also like a Dimensional Storage. It has a huge space inside it that can be used to store items.
However, Storage Pouches have limited functions compared to Dimensional Storage items. Unlike the Dimensional Storage items, if you put an item inside the Storage Pouches, the weight would still be there while on the Dimensional Storage, the item will become weightless.
Dimensional Storages has a frozen timeline, the items you put in there wouldn\'t rot.
Storage Pouches are made from the rare Beast, Space Kangaroo. Their marsupium was the main ingredient for making the Storage Pouches.
It contains a huge space inside of it, usually, they use it to store their young but they are usually hunted because of that feature.
Ban heard that a fist-size Storage Pouch has a price of at least 100 Gold Coins. That size could also only be used as wallets and it could easily fit up to 100000 Gold Coins.
Based on its size, the Storage Pouch that Belle handed should have a price of around 30000 Gold Coins at the lowest.
When he heard it from the rich Adventurers one time, he was also not able to hide his surprise, due to its function as well as its price.
One time, he even dreamed of catching one Space Kangaroo so that he could sell its marsupium for a high price.
According to the Adventurers, an adult Space Kangaroo\'s marsupium can make up to5 or 6 Storage Pouches with the size of a fist.
He just can\'t imagine how Belle has this kind of expensive item when she just got awakened recently.
\'Welp, nothing less from the daughter of the Guard Commander,\' he thought.
Ban hesitated for a moment whether he should accept her offer. But after thinking about it, he just accepted it before deciding to just return it later.
"Alright, I\'ll return this to you later!" He said.
Delo could only look in envy as an item that he didn\'t even have was easily lent to Leon just like that. He also tried to borrow it from Belle before but she was unwilling, reasoning that it\'s a gift from her father for her sixteenth birthday and she should not lend it to others easily.
But looking at the situation now… Delo could only grit his teeth to endure his rage.
Ban took the Storage Pouch from her hand. Belle immediately retracted her hand the moment he got it, as if she was afraid of touching him.
Ban just ignored her unusual reaction as he inspected the space inside the Storage Pouch.
Its size was rather big. Ban imagined that he might be able to fit one intact Sand Buffalo inside it just fine. However, compared to his Dimensional Storage Earring that has space inside of it the size of his room in the attic, the Storage Pouch\'s size can be said to be just so so.
Of course, only Ban thinks of it that way. If the other Adventurers knew about this Storage Pouch, they would surely pop their eyes out of envy. Delo for example.
He stored the sellable parts that he collected earlier. And just as expected, even though the Storage Pouch still retained its human head size, he could still feel the weight that came from the parts he just stored.
However, with Ban\'s strength, he does need to worry about this kind of weight.
After storing them all, he put the Storage Pouch on his shoulder before tying it in place.
He then looked at Belle and asked, "Do you still want to continue the Quest?"
He wanted to confirm it one more time. Things had already gotten out of hand. The Yellow Desert had become even more dangerous now that there was a Century Centipede roaming around to hunt for food. There\'s a high chance that they would meet again, and at that time, he knew that things would no longer go the same as earlier.
He waited for Belle\'s answer. Even if they cancel the Quest right now, as the issuer, she won\'t lose that many Gold Coins. Her expenditure was only the Quest Registration fee and the fare that she gave to the carriage driver earlier. But Ban knew that those amounts of Coins would not hurt her pockets at all. He knew she was rich, from the fact that she was able to issue this high reward Quest alone.
Belle stopped and thought about their situation for a moment. She knew Leon meant by asking that question again. The best course of action was to retreat and report what they saw to the Adventurers Guild to receive some rewards.
However, the rewards were not important to her. She got plenty of allowance provided by her father after all. The method to locate the Wood Swallow was more important as it doesn\'t exist in their Book of Techniques and yet she needs it to evolve her Monster to Elite Grade.
A moment later, she made a sigh as she finally decided what to do.
Just as she was about to say it, Delo suddenly interrupted her.
"Of course, let\'s continue the Quest. We already paid for it on the Adventurers Guild, or don\'t tell me you\'ll pay it instead? She also needs to see the method to locate the Wood Swallow urgently, there\'s no other time." He said with a threatening tone.
He also thought about it. This Leon guy just kept on getting on his nerves. If only he was not afraid of his \'strength\' as a Gold Rank Adventurer, he would surely have dealt with him already.
Not to mention, he noticed that Belle was gazing at him with weird looks which he doesn\'t like. He knew what those kinds of gaze meant.. He realized that he needs to get rid of Leon as soon as possible before it affects \'their\' plan.
