Chapter 11 - Gideon Woodlock (3)

                                    

                                          
After getting back on their carriage, Pier instructed the coachman that they needed to go towards the Capital's center.
                          
It was already lunch time and Pier did not bring any servants with them. 
                          
'The young master's probably hungry' Gideon thought as the Capital's center was known to be a place filled with many restaurants and stalls selling food.
                          
It was pretty much an entertainment and leisure place for anyone who had money to spare.
                          
He still could not get over the fact that Pier just casually placed gemstones that equates up to fifty million gold coins on the table and buy a mansion in an instant.
                          
'So powerful' He knew that the House of Masters was the most powerful household but seeing a portion of it was overwhelming for him.
                          
It did not just mean about Pier's capability of spending, he also was referring to the young master's capability of handling himself and the people around him.
                          
For others, it might just seem like the young master was Gideon's trustworthy attendant.
                          
"Young Master, where do we go next? Just so I can prepare" Gideon asked and Pier who was looking through the window turned his head.
                          
"Let's eat" He commented and Gideon nodded his head.
                          
They spent a long time riding from the House of Master's spacious territory and they also spent roughly two hours in buying the mansion.
                          
When they reached the Capital's central area, Pier and Gideon went out. They started to roam the streets.
                          
"Ah, I forgot, My Lord. The coachman must be hungry too! Let us bring some food for him when we go back" Pier enthusiastically spoke.
                          
Gideon nodded his head at his master's words.
                          
'He even thinks about the coachman' 
                          
After walking for some time, they finally found a place where they wished to eat.
                          
It was a bakery that produced a strong smell of pastries and bread.
                          
Pier looked up at the shop and there weren't many people entering.
                          
'The shop Pier liked to buy his sweets from' He thought.
                          
"My Lord, do you wish to eat pastries?" Pier asked and Gideon scratched the back of his neck because he did not know how to respond.
                          
He was Pier's knight and being asked what he wanted to eat was awkward for him.
                          
"Yes" He agreed and Pier nodded his head and they both entered the shop.
                          
Pier stood at the counter and a worker immediately tended to his needs.
                          
"My Lord wants this pastry and he would also like to have these muffins and this too" Pier commented while Gideon only listened quietly.
                          
The female worker was also eyeing Gideon secretly but the latter was only watching his attendant order for him.
                          
When they were finished buying the bread and pastries which Pier mostly ordered by himself, they got out of the shop.
                          
"My Lord, I suggest that we have lunch first" Pier spoke under his cloak and Gideon agreed.
                          
He would simply just agree to everything that Pier says.
                          
They started to walk again along the pavements of the streets, searching for a good place to eat.
                          
"Ah, L-Liam!" Gideon hesitated to call Pier by the name he had given him beforehand.
