The next morning, Akash and the Pri Paladins were ready to go. They bought all the necessary resources for the 31 people in their company. 1 King, 5 Lords and the whole House of Espionage, Death Gate which had 3 Earls and 22 Soldiers, a total of 25 assassins excluding its house master. The mbers of Death Gate wore robes to hide their uniforms, tight leather suits with various slots for holding weapons not ant for the eyes of others. Only their eyes weren't covered.
Akash told everyone else except the lords to follow them secretly, thus a group of 31 instantly turned into just 6. Out of them, only Haji Tea had expensive noble-like clothes. While Akash Tagar and Riassuba Rosehip wore commoner's robes. As for the three beasts, they wore disheveled clothes, ant to resemble slaves. All six of them hid their weapons in their inventories. The remaining soldiers and earls were left behind to protect the city.
Fully prepared, the small group stepped out of the city and moved towards Slave City, guided by Haji Tea. While the ones that remained were standing on the city walls, bidding them farewell. Akash strictly prohibited everyone from following him.
They were all in a jolly mood, chattering and laughing along the way. Haji Tea cackled as well before speaking.
"Hehehe, I can't wait to see Chand Gandraf's when he sees alive."
"Why aren't we flying, Lord Haji?"
Sohrab Khan asked.
"It's because we don't want anyone to be suspicious. Our Liege is the only fighter we have. If anybody saw him flying, it would cause complications."
Haji explained.
Soon after they got out of the city, they reached a car and a truck parked to the side. Akash, Riassuba and Haji sat in the car while the non-humans entered the container of the truck. Except for the 3 beastn, everyone else looked like normal humans despite the group being comprised of the god, fairy and human races albeit with each having so distinctive features. Like the fairies being extrely good looking or the god race being red-haired and red-eyed.
After continuously driving for the whole day, passing through so other cities along the way, they entered an abandoned city as Haji Tea instructed.
"Be prepared, this is the hub of bandits and thieves. There should be around 200 bandits here. Their leader is a 1st Moon Star Prince. While they are weaker than us, they still won't hesitate to attack us if given the chance and might even injure us. Let's be careful."
Akash smiled while pondering. Haji Tea saw that and quickly asked.
"What's the matter, My Liege?"
"Nothing, I'm just waiting for them to appear."
Akash said while looking at Riassuba with a side-eye. Then, Haji Tea opened a window, slling a strong stench of blood before closing it and looking at Akash Tagar as he comnted.
"My Liege, there's a strong stench of blood here. Who could it belong to?"
"Bandits."
Akash replied and Haji Tea soon understood. They were all killed by the Death Gate assassins without him even noticing. Haji thought that Raissuba had likely ordered them to check the place out beforehand and eliminate any threat they found. They were like a sharp dagger hidden in the shadows, ready to dispatch of anyone with a single blow before hiding again, as if they had never even existed to begin with.
Soon, the city was visible to everyone. Its walls were gigantic, four tis bigger than the walls of Abran and with around 10 tar guards located in each post spread throughout. While Haji was driving the car, everyone noticed how many other vehicles there were around them in the traffic, likely thousands. Haji took a spot in that seemingly never-ending line. anwhile, the truck behind them was driven by an assassin. It was filled many small holes, allowing Daan Godlyn, Sacra Emilat and Sohrab Khan to watch the surroundings as well.
Soon, an investigator knocked on the window of Haji's car, the forr mayor opened the window.
"Yes?"
"What is your business here in Slave City?"
He asked.
"We are here to participate in the 3rd Tier Tournant."
Haji replied. After which, the investigator peeked inside the car and looked at everyone. He could only asure Akash's cultivation realm, sensing that he was at the Star Knight realm. He couldn't sense the others' realms because theirs was higher than his own.
"Who are you?"
The investigator looked into the eyes of Haji as the latter calmly replied.
"I am Haji Tea, the forr mayor of the 3rd tier Abran city. This young man here is our representative."
The investigator's eyes widened as he heard the na of the Tea Family before rembering.
"Oh my goodness, the Tea family! Lord Chand said that the one who could please the Tea family the most would get rewarded. This is my chance!"
He quickly hid the docunts and spoke, with a much friendlier tone now.
"Honourable guests, you should have introduced yourselves earlier. Please leave this car here and follow , young master."
"This truck behind is ours as well, we want to sell the beastn there."
Haji Tea added.
"Alright, we will take them with us as well. We need to wait a bit before soone cos to put a seal on them though."
"Don't worry about that, they have already been tad and are well mannered. I'd like to not waste any more ti."
Haji Tea replied with an annoyed expression.
The investigator's face imdiately turned pale, quickly going towards the truck and opening the container. His eyes fell on a 3-ter-tall high orc, who greeted him.
"Hello there."
~Ahhhhhhhh~
He yelled in horror and ran off with a swift jerk of his body
~BANG~
Before colliding against sothing. He raised his head high and saw a muscular white lionman, 3.2-ters-tall and with two canine teeth out in the open. Daan stretched his arm to help the man.
"Oh, my bad. Hold my hand and I will make sure no one harms you."
~Kraaaaahhhhhhh~
The man was shocked once again and cried before bolting in another direction.
~BANG~
This ti, he banged against a 3.3-ters-tall minotaur, the tallest and most ripped beastman out of the three, intimidating the man even more.
"The hell are you doing, stupid?"
The investigator didn't say anything, his eyes simply rolled back and he collapsed.
