Since the teleportation circle was connected to the High Serenity Palace and the other side was in ruins only means one thing... The High Serenity Palace got demolished a long time ago.
Souta glanced at Torkez and asked, "What's the mana density of this planet?"
"Our device couldn't measure the total mana density of this planet. It's probably greater than level 300." Torkez replied to Souta.
"So it's really a High World..." Souta muttered.
"My body feels heavy and it felt like my power is being restricted in this world. I don't like it." Franklin said as he narrowed his eyes. He couldn't exert his mana outside his body easily just like what he had always done before.
"You will get used to it soon. The restriction of the Imperium is much greater than this one." Souta said to him.
"Tsk! I felt like I'm becoming a normal person." Franklin clicked his tongue.
"You're just exaggerating it. You're an A-rank and it's pretty strong in Imperium." Souta said.
All of them except for Souta and Alice weren't used to high density mana so they were a little bit uncomfortable. Souta found that his decision to go to the high world was right. If they went directly to Imperium which has thicker mana then they would feel overwhelmed.
"What should we do now, Souta?" Alice asked.
"The same thing we've done when we first arrived in sub-world. Finding the folks of this planet and gathered information." Souta smiled as he replied to her.
The group scattered around as they started to search for a nearby village or city. The Guardian Fortress hid beneath the ground just like what it did before in the Astley Planet. They still couldn't afford it if anyone discovered their base.
Soon, they've found a city twenty five kilometers away from them. The city was big from their estimation it has a population of two million people. It was a huge force as they didn't know how many experts it possessed.
But still, they couldn't leave this city alone... Souta and the others had to gather information so it was inevitable that they go to that city.
"We'll go..." Souta said to them.
He divided the group into three groups. The first group was Souta, Isabella, and Franklin. The second group was Alice, Torkez, and Yenxa. Lastly, the third group was Yuko and Doranjan.
The first and second group was going to the city while the third group was staying beside the Guardian Fortress to protect it. They only had one goal for the meantime and that's to gather information about this world.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe first and second groups arrived in the city. They separated as soon as they entered the city and the process of entering the city was easy. They just bribe the guards and those guards let them enter without a problem.
This city was called Blue Ray City and it was one of the three hundred seventy five cities of the Numan Country, a powerful country on the southern continent of this planet. The one who's controlling this country was the eleven pavilion, seven towers, three lords, and one palace. Also, they were the ones that monopolize the resources in this land.
According to history, the Numan Country played a huge part in destroying the High Serenity Palace one hundred years ago.
It was more complicated than Souta had expected.
Souta, Franklin, and Isabella were inside the room talking to Alice's group about what they've found through transmission talisman.
"The guards here are quite weak as their power level is only C-rank but I'm afraid that the leading organization of this country is stronger than we've thought." Alice's voice sounded through the talisman.
"Yeah... The guards are already C-rank so it's easy to guess the power level of the higher-ups." Souta nodded as he looked through the windows. "Well, I'm gonna cut the connection right now. Continue researching about the history of this world. I want to know if this is connected to other High World."
"Okay," Alice said before the connection was cut.
Souta stood up as he placed the transmission talisman in his pocket. Then, he looked at Franklin and said, "I have a task for you. I don't need any objection."
Franklin was a little bit surprised when he heard Souta's cold voice. He quickly kneeled down and said, "I will do anything that you want, my lord. Just give your order and I will accomplish it to the best of my abilities."
He knew this time that Souta was serious so he needed to be respectful about the person that he swore to serve.
"Good." Souta nodded and he slowly told his plan to Franklin.
After listening to Souta, Franklin had a serious expression on his face but his heart was filled with excitement. Finally, he will be able to relieve his boredom.
"I will accomplish it as soon as possible."
Franklin said as he still didn't dare to raise his head in front of his lord.
"Okay, you can go now. I'm looking forward to the result of your work." Souta nodded and Franklin quickly disappeared from his sight.
"Um... Is it really okay to send Franklin alone, Souta? I think that I could help him as my abilities are more suited to that work. If you gave your permission to me I can go and help him." Isabella said from the side.
Souta shook his head and said, "Yeah, you have the legacy of the God of Hunt but his personality is more suited to that kind of work. You can just stay here with me and improve your potioneering."
Isabella puffed her cheeks. "I already went through a war with you so I can at least do what Franklin can do."
"Hahaha!" Souta laughed as he opened the door and exited the room.
...
Three days had passed....
Souta opened a small coffee shop in the Blue Ray City with Isabella. He simply used a bunch of gold and silver to open here and it was easy.
As long as he had money, he could do a lot of things in a city like this one. He liked the feeling of slapping golds in the face of those greedy people. It feels great as they will do everything that he said as long as he gave them gold and silver.
"Since this is the first day, I doubt that people would enter our shop," Souta said to Isabella before he went upstairs.
Inside his room, Souta used the mana in his parasite to set up a field around the room. He then sat down in the center of the room and took out a golden-colored orb.
This was a monster orb of a fifth evolution monster.
He was using the best feram stored inside it to widen the capacity of his monster orb so that he could store more best feram.
He closed his eyes and felt the energy inside the orb. He slowly guided it inside his body and led it to the orb on his chest. He needed to be careful as one wrong move could damage his monster orb.
A monster orb was the most important part of a third evolution monster and above. It was the source of their energy and once that it was damaged they wouldn't be able to use their unique advantage.
[Energy has increased by 5!]
[Energy has increased by 5!]
[Energy has increased by 5!]
...
After two hours, Souta opened his eyes once again. He was exhausted mentally as controlling foreign best feram was hard.
Ever since he got the treasure from the living labyrinth, Souta hasn't finished absorbing all the energy in this monster orb. At this moment, he was trying to increase his level by training, not by hunting. If this was still a game, training could only increase the proficiency of his combat arts.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe learned his lesson before. He almost got insane last time because of nonstop killing in the war. If Saya didn't help him then he would have become a monster consumed by his instinct at this moment.
After he used all the energy inside this monster orb, Souta would use the spiritual fruits that he had. While everyone was busy with their own task, he would build up his strength to prepare himself.
He sighed and he looked at his stats.
Name: Souta Ieshi
Race: Blood Goblin(3rd Evolution)
Level: 49
Class: Rank 3 Battle Mage
Health: 5,720
Stamina: 1,875
Energy(Best Feram): 1,770
Strength: 2,730
Agility: 2,499
Dexterity: 2,580
Intelligence: 3,103
Vitality: 2,397
At his current state, he was literally an overpowered third evolution monster. The one that greatly enhanced his stats was the skill that he received from Lydia's chain quest, the [Ruler of the Sub-World]. Also, the energy of the legacy when he still hasn't converted the energy to experience points.
He could even trash his level 60 character back in the game if they both have the same equipment. He guessed that he would surpass the level 80 Blood when he reach his fourth evolution.
"I'm looking forward to it."
A smile formed on his face while looking at his base stats.
