Chapter 417 The Weden City
From MC’s Perspective:
Time went on,
The magic train coursing through different parts of the terrain. But the passengers didn’t feel any discomfort and they are enjoying the journey.
Even I started to enjoy the passing scene through the window after some time. I realized the train journey would allow me to see different landscapes outside.
Right now, the train is speeding through the middle of hill regions. I can see that it’s forest terrain. The young boy beside me found himself enjoying the view outside as well.
Screech~
Shortly after, I heard a loud bird cry. The sound was so loud that it caused a small pain in my ears.
“6th order monster”
The middle-aged man seated in front of me said in a deep voice. The young boy was severely affected by the loud voice.
He then started to groan in pain. The middle-aged woman immediately gave a healing potion to her child.
This all happened in a blink of an eye,
But what surprised me was apart from me no one else seemed it as a big deal. I’m sure there are strong wizards in my compartment including the couple in front of me.
Strangely, everyone seems so calm.
Cry~
The next moment, I heard another loud bird cry. But this time I caught something. I see the giant bird’s shadow through the window. It was fleeing away from this place.
“What the happened?” I said in my heart.
I thought we were in great danger. But in a few seconds, the issue was resolved.
“Young man looks like you are surprised.”
“From your behavior, it appears as though it’s the first time for you to travel by train.”
The middle-aged man asked back-to-back questions. I touched my mask in surprise. This person found out my age.
How perceptive he was? The next moment, I realized my mistake. I lost my composure because it was my first train journey from the Capital.
No wonder he thought I’m young. After that, I controlled my composure and closed my eyes. I’m not going to strike up a conversation with him.
The middle-aged man’s mouth curves into arcs. He had never expected to see someone strange on their journey. He can tell that boy is surely young. But looking at the black mask. He decided not to ask anymore.
Meanwhile, the 10-year-old boy fell asleep. The potion he had consumed made him fall asleep.
While closing my eyes, I couldn’t control the inner curiosity in me. The giant bird monster had left just like that. I guess someone must have made a move.
Time passed,
After several hours, the magic train reached the denfield state’s new capital city. I opened my eyes because of the announcement. When I looked through the window.
A hint of surprise flashes in my eyes. It’s 2 AM. I have to find an inn at this time. Which is going to be a hassle. The train arrived faster than expected time to arrive.
When the train comes to a halt. The passengers started to leave one by one slowly. I waited for the middle-aged couple with their child to leave.
Before leaving the young boy waved his hand at me. Seeing that my lips bent slightly. It’s a pity that I didn’t have a conversation with them.
But it’s all for their safety and mine. Shaking my head, I pushed down these thoughts and got up from the seat to walk outside.
A few minutes later, I walked out of the building safely. The station is smaller than Dragon City. Because of that I quickly found out the way to the exit.
Outside it is dark. There are still some hours left before sunrise. Then I raised my head to look around. Many buildings were around here.
I don’t know if any of them were in. Then I found a cab driver to drop me there.
A few minutes later,
The cab driver dropped me in front of the fancy inn. Why fancy? Because the building was lit up with colorful light.
I took some to verify the inn’s name and address on the Internet. Seeing that it’s a genuine inn. I walked toward the entrance.
When I walked inside. I was greeted by female staff behind the desk. Then I requested accommodation for a few hours. Because I’m planning to leave after breakfast.
After getting the room access code, I walked toward my room. It was on the same floor itself. I reached the room now. 3. And entered the access code to enter.
Creak~
After entering inside, I decided to freshen up myself before sitting down to meditate.
After a few minutes, I sat cross-legged on the ground and started to meditate. When I started to run the gravity ark method.
I immediately noticed the difference. The presence of mana in the surrounding area is in no way near Dragon City.
But it doesn’t matter to me. I can’t absorb the mana beyond the daily limit. So the current situation is enough for normal practice.
Then I slowly began to absorb the gray mana particles from the surroundings. It was a little difficult and required more concentration to absorb.
Nevertheless, I managed to circulate mana inside my body. After the circulation, the purified mana settles down in my mana core space.
After that, I continued to repeat the process.
Time went by,
I opened my eyes three hours later as usual. Again, I felt a change in my physique. Nowadays, it has become more real.
“System, show me the status panel,” I said to the system.

When the status window popped up. I looked into the changes. The two attributes will hit the limit sooner. But the mana core progression would take some time.
I made up my mind to break the limit during the mission. For that, I have to think of some solution to my core progression.
Then I thought of a good plan. After completing the mission quickly, I can look for treasures in the remaining time.
Though the old capital was destroyed by evil magic. But I think something valuable can be found there. The more I think about it. The more I find it doable.
Then I got up from the ground to take a shower.
Several minutes later,
I changed into fresh clothes and wore a black mask on my face. My current attire reminds me of adventurers. This look won’t attract attention from people.
Now there is only one thing left before starting the mission. I have to find a safe way to enter Aten City. Right now there are two ways before me.
I can directly enter the City Lord Mansion and get help from them. Because the mission is a formal one.
I can seek help from the government if I want. If I do that it would be a hassle-free journey. But it would also expose my identity to others.
Which is more dangerous than the mission. And I don’t want to commit such a mistake.
Then the 2nd way is the more reliable one. And it gives me more assurance. It is to enter the place illegally by bypassing the security measures.
It may sound ridiculous. But only in this way I can avoid the tracking from hostile wizards. I won’t believe that Bloodline Hall has decided to forget the issue.
On top of it, the person from the Taboo Hall is waiting to attack me. There are also wicked wizards from the dark league. So I got so many targets on my back.
Going there secretly will give me some assurance. Then I opened the communication watch and accessed the map. A blue holographic map appears above the watch.
The terrains and the danger areas were noted clearly on the map. As I had heard, the buildings were reduced to ruins. Now the place was filled with evil magic. But the evil magic was concentrated on the heart of that city.
Which is also my mission site. Then I calculated the distance between the two cities and the time it would take me to reach there.
