Next morning he woke up early checking his body which was almost completely healed he looked at himself in broken mirror and he began to do some light stretching . His physics was very average cause of lack of nutrition. His height was around 5.1ft quite short for his age and he was also very thin and scrawny . Light brown hair and black eyes his looks were passable at least .
Then the daily routine of polishing began . Today he closed the business around 12 realising that no customer came after 12 he ended up earning 6 bronze little more than yesterday. Then he strolled around the city for job as Mr . Gordon couldn’t find any today. He walked around whole city for hours with some fruit and cheep bread in hand .
He saw many beast men, elves, and even dwarf but he couldn’t see any lizard men. He also found weapon shops, ins , potions shop, library , church , Adventures guild, etc. He decided to go to library but the entry fee was of 2 silver for 1 month. All he achieved today was rough mental map of the whole city along with some glimpse at the magic technology such as trains with mana engine, carts and wagons pulled by huge powerful beasts, and simple daily use magic devices like lamps, storage bags, clocks .
