Arthur and Helia left Hartfield city and the Hartfield Empire for the Eastern Territory.
The Southern Continent was divided into 5 territories. The Central Territory, The Northern Territory, The Western Territory, The Southern Territory, and the Eastern Territory.
The Hartfield Empire was located in the Central Territory, which was the largest of all the other territories. It was at least three times bigger than the others.
The Central Territory, which was ruled by the Hartfield Empire, had the most resources and a greater concentration of spiritual essence energy that is used for cultivation.
Although the Hartfield Empire was the Overlord of the entire continent, it doesn't interfere in the matters of the other parts of the continent.
It was given the title of Overlord because it was the strongest, and not for leadership's sake.
The distance between Hartfield City and the Eastern Territory was huge. On foot, it would take many months if you are fast enough, and have a high cultivation level.
Else, it could take forever.
Arthur had no cultivation, so he and Helia traveled on a flying Spirit Beast, the Golden Scaled Eagle.
The Golden Scaled Eagle as its name suggests is a spirit beast that is covered in golden scales.
It stood at six meters in height. And was large enough for three people to sit side by side on its back. Its flying speed was also very fast, and it was considered the fastest flying spirit beast on the southern continent.
Currently, only the members of the Hartfield Royal Family, have access to this spirit beast. And as such, traveling with it as your mount is also a symbol of identity. freewebnove(l).com
With the spirit beast, it only took a week of travel to arrive at the Eastern Territory.
**********
Eastern Territory -- Blue Crystal City...
Rose Gold Inn...
"Arthur, this place can not be compared to our residence at all," Helia, complained to Arthur.
"Of course, it won't enter your eyes. But not everywhere can like our home. There are fewer rich people in the world after all," Arthur replied.
They were in an inn, and Helia was dissatisfied with it. Arthur found it funny that she even compared it with the Royal Palace.
"Another thing, why did you make us change our clothes?" Helia asked.
Just before arriving here, Arthur had suddenly decided to change their clothes too much simpler ones, making them appear ordinary.
"Nothing much, I just wanted this travel experience to be different. That is why I also didn't go this Kingdom's King," Arthur said.
They were seated in a sitting room within the inn. It had two rooms, which were beside each other. The place reminded Arthur of the two-bedroom flat, he lived in back on Earth.
'Wonder what happened to that guy,' Arthur thought, as he recalled the robbery with his roommate's elder brother.
"But wouldn't your objective, whatever it is be easier to accomplish if we had the King's help?" Helia asked.
"Helia, if I really wanted help. I could have gotten one from the Emperor. Don't worry, my objective is kind of unique."
"Your objective, you still haven't told me what it is."
Outside their rented place was a hall that had other rooms besides theirs. They walked towards the stairs by the right and went down.
Arriving at the ground floor they were met with a bustling restaurant with many eating and chatting at different tables.
Arthur went to a certain table that was beside the window and sat down, with Helia sitting opposite him.
After they sat down, a male waiter came and asked them what they would like to have.
"Give us your inn's specialty," Arthur said.
"Alright, Sir. Our inn's specialty is our Rank 3 Winged Boar's meat, and our unique Rose Gold Wine which is the best wine in the city and even the surrounding cities," The waiter said with a smile.
Rank-three winged boar meat was a very good delicacy in Blue Crystal Town and was one of the best.
A rank 3 spirit beast was comparable to Martial Spirit Realm cultivator, and even stronger than most, due to their physique.
Arthur nodded without much expectation. He had tasted the most lavish dishes, so he was that interested in their dish.
The waiter noticed Arthur's uninterested look and was a bit surprised. He then understood that Arthur, although dressed simply might be a rich young master of some powerful family.
"I will get your order immediately," said the waiter as he left.
Arthur decided to listen to the conversation of those around him, to find a clue on how to proceed from here, in finding a way to give the seal in him a final push, so that he can begin to cultivate.
All his actions so far had been based on his instinct. He would have met the ruler of this region with his identity on a normal occasion. But he felt like doing things this way.
As the possessor of the Gem of Fate. The one thing Arthur will always trust is his intuition.
Helia was quiet and just looked out the window, her thoughts drifted far away from where she was. As to what she was thinking about, only she knew.
Meanwhile, Arthur perked his ears as he suddenly found a particular conversion interesting.
Seated behind him were two men with rough appearances and full-grown beards, which made them stand out a bit.
"Hey, have you heard? Strange occurrences have been happening within the mountain range recently."
"Yeah, they said many of the plants have evolved suddenly, and it was the same for the spirit beast that was there too."
"I heard that a treasure had appeared and the various powers are keeping the news in wraps."
