"Cheers," said, muscled balding sovereigns, and others in the inn cheered with him.
He was giving out free drinks in the tavern as he made a fortune in the realm he visited. He made a breakthrough and got quite a lot of resources.
He's quite daring to announce his success so openly, but he is powerful.
A peak Sovereign: a few of the same level can defeat him, and he knows that as well. Thus, the celebration.
I drank the free drinks and ate the free meal he was paying for a while, talking with the people sitting around me. Whom, I likely never going to meet again.
It had been two and a half months since Carval City. I was planning to do that for a few weeks, but seeing how much it is helping me with my stress, I continued for months.
I would stay at least night in every city I come across. Enjoy its specialties.
It helped far more than I thought it would. So much so, my efficiency at work and practice had increased. It is even greater than before.
It had been years since I let myself mingle with people, and I was going to keep doing that after I returned to Taurus.
I have reached the Yadurn Mountains. I am currently in a city based on one of its mountains. Outside, there is a thick snowfall, covering the entire city in its blanket. Follow current novels on novel(ꜰ)ire.net
"So, Locke. Are you interested?" asked the stone-skin woman. "My apologies, but I can't. I have other engagements," I replied.
She and her team have invited me to realm opening a month later.
They talked about it and looked quite excited about it. It's an exciting realm. If I had been Sovereign, I would have visited it without a doubt.
"Well, think about it. You have a week," she replied, and I nodded before ordering another round of drinks.
Since it is free, nobody is holding back. Even for the Sovereign, there is going to be quite a bill. This bear isn't cheap; it's quite good that I had brought the formula for it.
Two hours passed, and people were still enjoying themselves when I got up to leave.
"I have some work. I will be leaving," I informed the people at my table.
'Room number seventeen. If you are interested,' a familiar voice rang in my head. I turned to her and saw her talking, but there was a mischievous glint as she looked at me from the corner of her eyes.
I am flattered, but I am not interested. She is a beautiful woman, and I could tell that two people sitting across here are infatuated.
She isn't the only woman that propositioned to me or man, but there is only one person in my heart and remained till the end.
So, I smiled politely at her and walked away.
Soon, I reached my room and entered inside before closing my eyes as I lay on the bed.
I looked around my core, at the bear. It is fighting my clone. It had been over a year in the core, and it had become very good at fighting people.
The improvement is great, and some of the credit goes to me.
It is far more intelligent than the normal monsters of its level. I had tinkered with its brain with forbidden power and a formula that increases its intelligence.
I am doing that with its children too, and since I had done that before, they were even born. The effect on them is much greater.
Soon, I was in the library, where I had comprehended the law before working on the inheritance.
I have been very productive with the inheritance. A few months more and it will be ready. Then I will only need to reach the limit, and I will be ready to make a breakthrough.
It was past midnight, when I got out of my abode and went to the practice room.
There, I practiced both of my methods before falling asleep on the floor.
The next morning, I stepped out of the inner and walked toward the gate. I moved like a normal person while watching the people around me.
Most are Primary and are going their ways, with dreams and hopes in their eyes.
On the way, I stopped at the street stall and ate breakfast. Whenever I visited the cities, I didn't cook. I always ate in the city.
It may be not skillful, but it has a soul in it, which makes it more delicious.
Soon, I reached the gates, and I didn't want to leave, but it's time I leave. I have to, there are things I have to do; I can spend my days as I like.
There is checking going on because of the incident last night, but I simply walked through it without the guards noticing me.
When I stepped out, I took the sky and flew.
I will need to fly for a few hours. It might not seem like it, but this area is in a range of spatial quakes. They are faint enough that only Sky Sovereigns could feel it
It means the Primes cannot be space surf in the area.
I didn't much mind it; the mountains are beautiful with many cities and towns on them. I watched them as I flew toward my destination.
An hour passed, and I came across another city, and something was happening there.
A monster is attacking them, and the city's powerhouses are barely defending against it. Some reinforcement seemed to be going toward the city, but that will take time.
So, I looked at the bird, and a moment later. It became terrified. So much so, it froze for a second before flapping its wings rapidly and running away as fast as it could,
The people watched in confusion before cheering in relief while the powerhouses collapsed, with questions on their faces.
One and a half hours later, I flew out of the quake zone, and the spatial wave began to gather behind me.
It's time I sped up my journey a little.
