Chapter 1290 Ulharis City

Hadden ate a sandwich while sitting on top of the bed. The sandwich had 2 thick pieces of bread on either side and lightly charred and saucy chicken meat on the inside, along with a bunch of greens and onions.

He munched on it excitedly, making sure to let Ning and Emma know that he hadn't eaten something so good ever in his life. They were in a small tavern room in a small city just a day more walk away from Ulharis city. If it were just them, Ning would have decided to walk nonstop, but with a kid this young, especially one that had been through so much today, they decided to take a break.

Emma ate another sandwich just as the boy too. With all of her energy spent, she started feeling hungry all of a sudden. Only Ning didn't feel any hunger at all.

They went to sleep after eating, the boy sleeping next to Ning. He cried for some time while clutching his new necklace before going to sleep.

Come next day, he was ready to go to a new city.

He rode on top of Umbra after walking for a while and played along with Lyra and Lori who were getting familiar with him after a day.

He looked around the roadway as they walked, seeing the many new people and carriages and beasts and surroundings, and... it was overwhelming him.

His village had been about over 2 hours away from the main road, and nearly a day's walk away from any other cities or towns. As such, he had rarely been on the main road and had only always been in the village and the mountainous forest next to them.

Seeing the many people and beasts and whatnot was extremely new to him. He would audibly gasp when seeing a new beast or get scared when a carriage zoomed past him at a quick speed. You can trace the roots of this content at n0v@lbin

From time to time, he would cluck onto the necklace that hung around his neck, looking for courage.

The dirt road turned to cobblestone as they got close to Ulharis city. The crowd around them had gotten larger as well since multiple roads had joined to their road as they got close to the city.

A carriage pulled by a flaming horse, two people riding on a green, scaly lizard, a person riding on an elephant with crystalline spikes growing out of it, a large blue bird flying in the sky, with people riding on it; there were many fantastical things to see.

Even Emma and Ning were amazed by what they saw, let alone Hadden who couldn't believe his eyes that such things were possible.

There were houses around them now, the forests and large fields long gone. As they walked, their houses got more and more congested to the point that there was barely any land left for more houses to be made.

And in the distance, there was the massive Ulhairs city, with buildings of up to 10 floors sprawling across their vision. One could hear the hubbub of the city from this far away, and the entrance exam to the Star Beast Institute only caused the crowd to get rowdier.

Hadden walked now, out of his own volition. His hurting legs meant nothing to him as he walked on the uneven cobblestone, nearly stumbling a few times but his eyes still fixed on the grandness of what he beheld. "This is a much bigger city than I thought," Emma said. "They weren't lying when they told me it made the Trobble city seem like a newly formed town."

"It's certainly massive," Ning said. "It reminds me of the Blackhawk city. Damn, this might even be bigger than that."

They crossed the many houses, made both out of rock and wood. There was a similar system for beasts here where they had to let the beasts stay in a repository if they were to be left alone.

Except, unlike Trobble City, there seemed to be no limit on how strong the beasts could be.

"System, what is the average Essence rank of the strongest people in this city?" Ning asked.
