Chapter 193 - Kelberg City (1/2)
After having a comfy sleep at the inn, the next day had arrived and it was time for Ray and the other two to head off again to continue their journey. Before heading off though, Ray had decided to update Slyvia and the others back at Avrion of the situation.
Slyvia agreed that the best decision would be to send some knights to cover the nearby towns to stop cases like this happening in the future. All though they didn't have many knights compared to before, it was unlikely that the Dark guild or the Shadow plague were planning another attack any time soon.
What the city needed to do now more than ever, was build good relations with the people nearby so they could come to trust the Red wings.
Ray had also informed Slyvia of what Gorden had told him about Demons. It seemed like Slyvia had no clue about these so-called Demons either and only Von knew about them as a myth.
However, when Ray had told Slyvia of these Demons she went to check out if she could find anything about them in the Dragon knights journals and they indeed had written down something about them.
Unfortunately, Slyvia had yet to decode this part but would update Ray as soon as she did.
The town was happy to gift Ray and the others a free carriage and horse for the journey. Gorden insisted that they take it for free after all the money that they got back from the imposters was more than enough to cover for it. But Ray refused and paid them for the horses and carriages anyway.
Now that they were no longer traveling on foot, Ray and the others were able to make quick time and would be able to reach the city in a couple of days. There were no huge incidents on the way to the city other than a few basic beasts here and there.
Ray was very disappointed that he still hadn't located any advanced beasts for him to defeat. If he wanted to level up and get stronger the next step was to get more crystals but like the rumours suggested Alure kingdom wasn't a place full of high-level beasts.
Finally, after two days they had finally arrived at Kelberg city. The wall surrounding the city was round in shape unlike the square style Avrion had and Kelberg was around three times bigger.
Kelberg was known as the city of merchants, as most merchants would have their base located at Kelberg. It was the biggest trading centre in all of Allure kingdom and also had the biggest markets. Adventures, Guilds and Nobles who hard their own armies would often come here to try find a good deal on equipment.
It was also located further in land, away from the border line meaning it was safe from not only the Shadow plague but the other kingdoms and Empire below as well.
Upon reaching the gate the three of them had to pay an entrance fee of two silver coins per person but once they had entered once, they were free to come and go as they pleased.
”WOW THIS IS AMAZING!” Gary said as soon as he stepped through the city gates.
Unlike Avrion the streets were filled with people all smiling and playing about. The streets were wide and filled with market stalls centred down the middle, they sold general goods and some were selling beast cores and weapons.
Gary felt like he was a kid in a candy shop. Jack didn't care for much of the weapons or shiny things, he was more interested in the food. As soon as he stepped into the city he could smell the meat juices flowing in the air.
