335 The Natives of the Western Continen (1/2)
Yale's group landed on a beach full of sand, but there were some sharp rocks for all the place creating a bad combination while walking due to the constant changes of the ground from extremely soft to hard and sharp.
The incommodity was so high, that although there wasn't any risk of getting harmed by mere sharp rocks, the group decided to advance flying some centimeters above the ground to make their path easier.
They didn't dare to fly high because they didn't know if the people of the western continent had defenses against flying enemies. Moreover, if they were found while flying high, it was easier for them to be mistaken by others as enemies that were preparing an assault.
However, at the distance which they were flying from the ground, it would seem that they were walking if everyone were flying with the power of flying of those who reached at least the Grandmaster Rank.
Of course, since the female wolf and Yale were using wings to fly, even at a low height, it was evident that they were flying. Wyba needed to use wings to fly, but she was in her beast form resting in Yale's head, so she didn't need to make her wings appear at that moment.
”Let's land here. In the ground, we will leave a track to follow, but that is better than being discovered trying to hide our track.”
The beach wasn't big and next to it there was a forest area packed with trees and vegetation.
Yale still didn't know which his next quest would be, so he felt that he might discover it after some natives from the western continent found them. Of course, Yale wanted that their meeting was amicable, and it didn't turn into a battle, but if the other party was unreasonable and wanted conflict ignoring their words, he was also ready to teach them a lesson.
After landing, the group started to walk, and no one was left on the backs of the wolves, but Wyba didn't want to walk, so she remained on Yale's head.
”Yale, if I understand our original plan well, we are trying to act as merchants, but Julie isn't here, is this alright?”
After walking for some minutes, Sebe spoke out of boredom.
”Don't worry. We can rely on that later, but right now it isn't wise. After all, we didn't even know what kind of species there are on this continent, so it will be hard to believe that we are here for trade with them.”
Although they came from another continent, Yale had decided to hide that as long as they could hide it, so it would be weird if they were to trade in an area without knowing anything about it. Although it wouldn't be weird for a group of merchants to be traveling around the continent, it would be too weird that they didn't have any knowledge of the areas they were going.
Of course, if they just told that they came from another continent, it would be easier to explain their reasons for trade and lacking knowledge wouldn't be important, but both continents didn't have any connection with each other for more than thirty thousand years, so it was rather unpredictable how would the natives act towards them.
”Aren't we being too cautious? Yale, didn't you come to this continent in your past life?”
Swordmad didn't question Yale's decisions and didn't plan to start doing it, but since he knew about Yale's past life, he felt that there should be some hidden reason for being so cautious.
”There isn't any hidden reason.”
Yale understood what Swordmad wanted to say even if the words spoken by him didn't match his true intention.
”I explored the whole world in my past life, including the other ocean, but at that time, that ocean was still normal, and as far as I know it was around the same time when I visited this continent. Moreover, my memories are incomplete, so I don't remember anything about this continent, and given how much time had passed, that kind of information won't be reliable even if manage to recover some of my memories.”
The time when Liye explored the world was when he was young and couldn't leave to explore other worlds, so it happened when the world itself was young and not too much time passed since its creation because Liye and the world had the same age.
Thus, even if Yale managed to remember something about the western continent, it would probably be incorrect.
”The only thing I know for sure is that this continent isn't dominated by humans but for species that came from other worlds in the past.”
The humans from other worlds usually ended in the eastern continent, but since that continent has always been purely controlled by humans, the other species chose to live on the western continent. Of course, some humans also chose the western continent to live, but usually, humans preferred to live in a place when they dominate others.
