From MC's perspective:
"Kid, you ca at a bad ti. The patrol guards are tightening the rope. They are looking for soone."
"So for strangers or visitors from other cities, they are going to face trouble. The patrol guards would collect their details," the old man said in a normal tone.
On the other hand, my eyes flickered. I made the right decision by not directly flying into the city. The image of the giant airship is vivid in my mind.
If my identity is exposed, then it would be difficult to leave the border.
"Kid, what are you thinking?" The old man asked. The old man found the kid-pleasing to the eye. So he doesn't mind clearing his doubts.
"Hmmm"
"Mister, can you tell
if any vehicles are going to the border?" I asked.
The old man looked at
seriously. Before I could explain.
"Are you going to search for them in the border town?" the old man asked.
Hearing that I fiercely nodded my head. The old man was simply naive. There is no need to coerce him.
"I don't know what is happening?"
"The situation at the border doesn't seem to be good either. If you want to go, you can find so transport company in the city," The old man said.
Hearing that I thanked him before giving him the low-grade stone.
The old man was surprised but the next second his expression showed joy. He then places the low-grade stone in the battery area.
Wiz!
Imdiately the battery began to charge. The old man now enters the city without any trouble.
"Kid, you helped
greatly. Let
drop you at the transport company. Get in," The old man said.
"Thank you, mister," After saying that I hopped inside.
Sitting down in the back seat, I saw an old man take the driver's seat before turning toward .
"Don't worry, kid"
"The patrol guards won't bother you," the old man said.
"Why?" I blurted out of surprise.
The old man grinned before saying, "They are afraid of my job." Then he started the vehicle and the four-wheeler burst out at a great speed.
Back in the seat, I took the old man's words as a joke. If there is any trouble, I can hide inside the Gregor Mansion.
Swish~
The four-wheeler is moving at a great speed. It's been so ti since I traveled in a land vehicle.
Soon we reached the massive gate of the city. Then I saw the na of the city lit up with lights.
"Cot City," I said in my head. Why does every town and city na have sothing to do with outer space?
I frowned. Then I shifted my focus back to the entrance. The gate opened but the patrol guards checked the land vehicle one by one.
Still, there were a couple of vehicles in front of us. It would take several minutes before our ti.
Commotion~
When I was observing, people exclaid in surprise. Then I saw everyone towards the sky. When I raised my head as well.
I saw a giant white airship entering the airspace of Cot City. There are a lot of air vehicles leading the way.
Seeing that my expression turned solemn. The white airship is the sa as the previous one.
"Harumph, these guys are back to terrorize people," the old man said with a snort.
"They won't let anyone live peacefully," The old man added.
I turned toward the old man and asked, "Why are you saying that?"
"Kid?"
"Where were you living all this ti?"
"Don't you know these guys will kill? Even if there is the slightest disagreent," The old man said in a solemn tone.
"Many of my garage friends were killed by them," the old man added.
Hearing that I remained silent. But my mind was not calm. There is also a Royal Academy back in my country. But those guys weren't this overbearing.
A few minutes later,
It was our turn. The patrol guards recognized the old man and his vehicle. So they let the vehicle pass without much checking.
When we passed the checkpoint, The old man turned towards
and laughed.
"Ha...Ha...Ha..."
"How was it?"
"Those guards won't bother to check . Otherwise, I won't repair their vehicles in my garage," The old man said.
His words enlightened . Then he drove the vehicle to a transport company.
Cot City is big. Many companies have large land of their own. So normal residents can't enter their premises without permission.
But the old man surprised . He seems to have contacts with so influential people. In the na of servicing the vehicle, he drove the vehicle into the company premises.
"McCarthy Russ," The old man said in a solemn tone.
"That person is a famous wizard and part of the governnt. And he also runs a private business like this transport company."
"Do you rember the white big airship?"
"I guess he was on that ship," The old man continued to say. But his words caused a huge turmoil in my heart.
I thought about finding so random company. But this old man led
towards the tiger's den.
The old man noticed the young man's change in expression. He thought that the young man was scared.
He let out a chuckle before saying, "Don't worry, I have so friends here. They are looking for low-level wizards to handle so work."
"I guess the work is related to transporting so goods to the border town. You can do so work while traveling to the border town," The old man explained.
Hearing that I keep nodding my head at him. It's a dangerous environnt. Since I'm here, I can collect so information. I took this challenge positively.
Soon the vehicle reaches the destination. I saw an office building. Then I stepped out of the vehicle followed by the old man.
"Kid, let
take you there to et so people," After saying that the old man started leading
towards so back office building.
