While Vincent and Ayla were trying to perfect the new weapons, the Zemin Clan received an instruction to send 20 of their guards to be trained on how to use the artilleries and other mounted weapons on the city walls.

Although most of them are Archknights and will have more advantage in the battleground, it is still better to train them in case of emergency…

In the meantime, Lesley decided to look around the city and realized that there are some familiar people here…

"W-what going on?" Lesley felt like she was hallucinating when she saw Yvette from the Marshall Clan.

The Marshall Clan is known for its military achievement. Especially Yvette's father, Count Miller Marshall. That man created the Swordbreaker Army which was said to be capable of matching against the Royal Knights of the Kingdom.

It is not an easy feat.

The Marshall Clan is basically one of the most powerful forces in the southern region of the kingdom. It was no wonder why she had known about them.

She wanted to approach her and ask about her current situation but she saw her busy with her work so she hesitated.

Instead, she just observed her enter the training grounds as she was greeted by the soldiers with tense smiles on their faces.

It seems that these people had a hidden crush on her.

Lesley knows this gaze and smile as she was always getting this kind of attention.

She observed the training ground for a while before she decided to leave… She has a few suspicions about this city so she went to the largest tavern where information can be easily acquired.

Since it's still quite early, most people are at their work so only a few customers can be seen inside.

'All of the customers are high-level Mana Practitioners as expected… They're definitely Master Magicians or even Adept Mages.' Lesley thought.

She already realized that most of the people in the streets or even the people running the stores and shops were strong Mana Practitioners. She has never seen a single non-practitioner here which is quite impressive.

She would even believe that all the citizens here were soldiers if someone told her so.

Clink…

She put down a few gold coins on the bar and asked the bartender a few questions.

'Another one, huh…'

The bartender wasn't new to this and as a matter of fact, Vincent had already informed them about this long ago. He was told that he just needs to answer honestly as long as they don't reveal the secrets of the city like their underground shelter and tunnel, their Magic Tower's floor plan, or some other things within the Inner Wall of the city.

Soon, Lesley learned the history of this city…

"Y-you guys were also from the Tudor Kingdom? I didn't know that the Barbarians have decided to take the slave from there… Ugh… That disgusting duke has really done it."

"Oh? You've heard about our homeland?"

"Yes… Of course, I'm from the Zemin Clan…" Lesley replied as she expected the man to fawn over her…

However, to her surprise, the bartender only nodded not continuing to speak.

Lesley was taken aback as she added.

"Have you heard of it?"

"Well… I can't say I haven't heard it. However, I'm not too familiar with this clan. Ahh! Now that I think about it, was it the same clan dealing with salt mining?" The bartender finally stopped as it has been a while since he has talked about the kingdom.

"Yes! That's right..." Lesley finally smiled after hearing this."

"I see… So you guys weren't captured by the barbarians and migrated here of your own volition…"

"That's right… Since we're from the same homeland, can you tell me some secrets here in the city, like a place where there is tasty food or perhaps even news about the City Lord's married life… Anything will do."

"Hmm? I don't think that Sir Vincent was married yet… Well, if he was, it would probably be Manager Yulia or Miss Calidia."

"Yulia… I know her… What about Calidia? Is she one of his Celestial?"

"Nah… I'm not too sure as well, I heard she was part of some cult before but no one really knows… In any case, I can't answer any more of your questions. Customers are coming in."

The man politely said as he tended to other customers.

Lesley heaved a sigh of relief, it seems that Vincent had truly forgotten about her already and found another woman.

Nevertheless, she knows that once he saw her again, he would certainly try to get her and that would be her chance to get closer to the Tower Lord.

Right now, she needs a reliable helping hand since her clan isn't in a good position.

Getting Vincent's help is certainly good but getting the favor of the Tower Lord would be the best outcome for her.

She's confident with her skills and talent especially after obtaining an opportunity within a dungeon. What she just needed now is a strong supporter that will provide her with plenty of cultivation resources so she can develop and become a Grand Magus that can protect her family.

She also vowed to herself that the Zemin Clan will return to the Tudor Kingdom one day and reclaim their land.

Although most of their clan members were no longer thinking of returning to their homeland, she had never forgotten or given up on it.

Even if she has to swallow her pride and accept Vincent to be her man, she would grit her teeth and do so…

"Lesley? So you're really here. I've heard that your Clan was recently accepted to the city. I know that we'll meet again but I didn't expect that I'll see you walking around the streets alone."

"Ahhh… So it's you, Sir Luc… This place is pretty safe and I'm also quite strong now. There shouldn't be any problem."

Lesley replied as she looked at Luc Diedrich, one of the appraisers that she personally knows and not the Zemin Clan.

She chatted with him for a while and learned that Luc is still working as an appraiser here. She's currently on her way to the military ground to conduct an inspection and ensure that all the weapons of the army are in their best state.

Lesley was impressed by this meticulous monitoring of the army's weapons since the Zemin Clan and other organizations that she knows wouldn't even care about the weapons of their soldiers once they are provided…

Normally, the maintenance of weapons would already fall on their shoulders and not their employers.

She also learned a few more interesting things within the city as her interest in Vincent just grew even larger…
