Chapter 162

After exiting the portal, the capital of the Anpaes Kingdom was in front of them . The portal was situated in an upper area inside the city and was perfect to have a good sightseeing of the whole city .

The city was enormous, more than Trade City and the Imperial City, but the buildings weren't tall at all . Instead, there were a lot of independent houses .

The city wasn't constructed in a flat terrain; instead, it seemed to have been built on a mountain, with the palace being at the peak and the poorest zones at the bottom .

The fact the portal was in a high position was due to being almost beside de royal palace, as only the royal family or those authorized for them could use it, it was normal for the portal to be near the royal palace .

"What do you think about the capital, a great sight, right?"

Sebe said it with pride, as a member of the royal family he liked when the people had good opinions about the capital and seeing the others being without words after seeing the city was a great praise to the city and thus, to the royal family .

"It is pretty big, but this capital didn't have a proper name?"

Yale was the first to reply as the impact he received from the city was lesser than the others, he had already seen the Imperial City of the Revgen Empire and Trade City in the Zuatania Republic after all .

"Well . . . it has a proper name, but almost everyone just calls it the capital . The capital's name is Anpaes City; it has the same name as the kingdom, so using the name it is a bit confusing . You know? This city was the origin of the Anpaes Kingdom, my grandfather constructed this city first, and after some time he finally created the current kingdom . "

Sebe spoke about it like if the capital was the starting point of the kingdom, but in Yale's eyes, the reality was a bit different .

For Yale, the capital was the true Anpaes Kingdom and thus the true reason for the name . The rest of the so-called kingdom were just a pack of poor cities of towns without almost any relationship with the capital .

Anpaes City wasn't worse than the Imperial City and Trade City, but the cities and towns outside were clearly worse than the ones in the Revgen Empire and the Zuatania Republic . That as a clear show that for the Anpaes Kingdom, the things what happened outside the capital didn't matter too much .

Anpaes City had a lot of security and guards, an entire army, but in the border area with the Zuatania Republic, there was only bandits and poor people .

The Anpaes Kingdom didn't show any will of defending those areas from the attacks of bandits not care about the wellbeing of the people living there . Only when someone powerful like the Bear Overlord appears the royal family will start to take an interest in those areas .

"I know you want to see the city for more time, but we should start moving . There is a guard control just after leaving our current place, from now on, don't say a word until I say it to you . "

Aiwai and Shirk broke from their trance of seeing the capital after hearing Sebe .

Wyba didn't understand what was so great of the capital, so she had been just staring it trying to find out it, but when Yale and Aiwai started to walk, she stopped paying attention to the city and walked behind them . For her the best place was the place where Yale and Aiwai were, she didn't care about living in a house at a mountain or in a big city, there wasn't any difference for her as long she was with her family .

The guards just bowed when they saw Sebe, and just like Sebe had said, they didn't question the presence of the others following him .

Sebe continued walking until reaching a small independent house near the palace .

"Welcome, prince Sebe . "

A woman seated behind a desk welcomed Sebe bowing her head, no one needed an explanation to know that she was someone working for the royal family .

"I need to obtain the official documents for a new guard under my orders and for my friends . My friends are family, so they will live together, give them the best house in my possession . "

Sebe lived inside the palace, all the houses he had were to give others, so he didn't hesitate to give the best house to Yale .

Usually, the houses given to his friends were based on how much importance Sebe attributed to them, even among his friends, Sebe didn't value them in the same way, everyone was different, and the degree of friendship he had towards them was also different .

In the end, almost all the houses were similar, so the differences were difficult to notice, but the one Sebe had chosen for Yale was the best with a lot of difference .

The reasons for choosing that house were simple; although Yale himself was someone who Sebe valued as he felt that both were similar, the main factor was that Yale had the Bear Overlord's corpse with him .

The backgrounds also mattered when Sebe or other members of the royalty gifted a house, and for someone who had a backing capable of killing a Rank 8 in one hit, the best house was the only option .

If it weren't because Yale said that they didn't want to catch a lot of attention, just by revealing his identity to the king, Yale would obtain an even better house directly from the king .

Sebe had never seen that expert he believed to be behind Yale, but he was sure that the expert was with them under some kind of invisibility skill; in his opinion, the idea of coming to the city was from that expert, so it was natural that he had also come .

Sebe understood very well that making angry someone with such power was a bad idea even for the royal family .

The royal family had some people at the Rank 8, the Grandmaster Rank, but against someone capable of killing them with one hit those people didn't mean anything .

In the whole royal family, after the death of Anpaes, there was only one person who surpassed the Rank 8, the king who had reached the Rank 9 .

The king would have no difficulties killing someone at the Grandmaster Rank, that was normal for someone at the Rank 9 because the difference between each level increases at the same time the rank increased .

However, as Yale's background was also able to kill someone at the Grandmaster Rank in one hit, the chances of being someone at the Rank 9 were high . Even if that person wasn't at the Rank 9, in Sebe's eyes, it was impossible to that expert to be weaker than an 8-star Grandmaster to be able to do that .

In either case, that kind of person could be a terrible enemy or a powerful ally, and having for enemy someone with an unknown level of strength wasn't a good idea .

Thus, Sebe understood the reasons for the king wanting to have a good relationship with them, although the maybe not turn into allies, it was good as long they didn't turn into enemies .

The number of dead people that such expert would be able to provoke before the king managed to stop him would be enormous, and that was assuming that the difference of strength between the king and the expert was great enough for the king to deal with him .

Powerful experts were hard to kill, at most they would flee when they knew that they couldn't win, and a powerful enemy who had fled was incredibly dangerous .

Moreover, the fact someone couldn't win in a direct battle didn't mean that they couldn't use indirect methods to harm others, especially targeting family and friends was the most used way to take revenge in the case to not being able to win directly .

Sebe knew very well that Yale wasn't the kind of person who wanted to generate trouble and the expert behind him also seemed someone who didn't like to catch attention . However, when that pig girl had tried to harm Wyba, the expert didn't hesitate on teleporting Yale to the training camp and making him kill that pig girl .

Sebe also heard the words Yale said when showed the corpse of the Bear Overlord and understood that the Bear Overlord died because he attacked first and pissed off someone who couldn't be pissed off .

The message of all their acts was obvious in Sebe's eyes .

"We don't like trouble, and we will be friendly to those friendly to us, but we will kill anyone who dared to offend us . "

Sebe thought that it was alright to think like that for someone powerful, you could be someone who disliked trouble, but if you didn't act against those who offend you, you wouldn't be respected . That was also the reason Sebe punished the pig man and his son for the disrespectful words towards him .

Fortunately, Sebe had made friends with Yale without knowing anything, and Yale had also said that he wasn't interested in political affairs, so as long they live peacefully, there wouldn't be any problem .
