Chapter 136

"Mr. Shien?"

Seeing that Shien was stunned, Merica looked uneasy, as if she had done something wrong.

"What's wrong?"

Tierre also looked at Shien and asked.

"Ugh …"

On the other hand, Lucia looked at Shien with a trace of timidity in her eyes. It seemed that she had indeed become more afraid of Shien.

However, Merica did not show much fear, which really surprised Shien.

This elven young lady did not seem to be affected by the previous incident. She was still the same as before.

No, judging from Merica's behavior, she undoubtedly took the initiative to talk to Shien, as if she did not want to distance herself from Shien.

In fact, that was the case.

Putting Lucia aside, Merica's impression of Shien had not changed.

Firstly, elves like Merica could be cruel to Demons to begin with. Secondly, Merica's sense of closeness to Shien was growing day by day. She could not stand not talking to Shien for the past few days. Otherwise, she would not have suddenly changed the topic to Shien.

Shien did not know any of this. He thought that it was because of Margray, and the kind-hearted Merica was grateful to him, so she did not fear him.

This made Shien feel more at ease.

"I'm fine." Shien shook his head and returned to the original topic. "I'm different from you. I come from the sea of stars."

Everyone was stunned by his words.

"The sea of stars?"

Melica was at a loss, and so was Lucia. Even Tierre furrowed her brows as if she was searching through her memories to see if there was any mention of such a place.

However, this was undoubtedly a waste of effort.

After all, Shien was just talking nonsense.

He could not possibly tell everyone that he came from another world, right?

Therefore, Shien said this with a serious expression.

"It's normal that you have not heard of it, because it's a very distant place. It represents the unknown and hope, and is the goal that many people pursue."

Shien's words directly stunned the women.

"There's really such a place?"

Tierre even looked doubtful.

"Of course," Shien said without blushing. "Also, it's a very large and boundless place."

Shien began to talk nonsense.

In the end, after talking nonsense for a long time, the question that everyone wanted to ask Shien was turned into a topic of discussion about what kind of place the sea of stars was.

It was not until five minutes later that Baylon came back.

"Alright, let's enter the city," Baylon announced straightforwardly. "After we enter the city, the knights will follow me. Adventurers, you can make your own arrangements. You can go to the guild headquarters or find your own hotel. I'll inform you when we confirm that we can meet with the palace." Baylon announced straightforwardly, "After we enter the city, the knights will follow me.

In other words, the next step was to act separately.

"Lord Leon, please come with me to the Magical Equipment Store in the Imperial City!"

Eudilis immediately said to Leon, who was beside her, very impatiently.

"Alright."

Leon was a little hesitant, as if he wanted to take the opportunity to do something, but he was also not familiar with the Imperial City, and it was his first time here. Considering this, he felt that it was better to act with Eudilis, so he did not object.

It was worth mentioning that during this period, Leon had not approached the girls in Vivian's party.

With Sean there, Leon couldn't wait to get away from them. Naturally, he didn't dare to pester the girls anymore.

Arliss, on the other hand, decided to go to the Guild to take a look.

"Since it's the headquarters of the Adventurers Guild, and in a place like the Imperial City, the commission and rewards of the guild should be very impressive, right?"

Arliss looked like she wanted to go and take a look, and her teammates did not have any objections.

As for the people in Vivian's party, they also had their own arrangements.

"Your home or mine?"

Vivian asked Tiyerre for confirmation.

"Your home." Tierre knew what Vivian was talking about, and said in a rare tone of dissatisfaction, "You already know the answer, don't you?"

"You can say that." Vivian couldn't help but laugh, but she still stared at Tierre and asked, "Are you really not going back to take a look?"

"No." Tierre replied without hesitation. "You know, I wanted to become an adventurer because I wanted to escape from that place. I accepted your invitation to go to Lamigion to get away from that place."

"… Alright." Vivian was silent for a moment, and then said helplessly, "In that case, let's go to my home."

Hearing this, Shien, Lumia, and Merica finally understood what Vivian and Tierre were discussing.

The two of them were discussing whether they should take everyone to Vivian's house or Tierre's house since they were back in the Imperial City.

No matter what, as people from the Imperial City, they could not let everyone stay in a hotel, right?

Hence, Vivian had already made arrangements.

"Let's all stay at my place." Vivian smiled at everyone and said, "But to be precise, I should say that I'm staying at Lily's place."

Because Vivian was also staying at Lily's place.

"Is that okay?" Sean raised his hand and asked, "I heard that President Lily's family seems to be an incredible aristocrat. Can you move in as you please when you're not around?"

Lumia and Merica nodded repeatedly, as if they were also worried.

"You don't have to worry too much. Vivian immediately comforted him. "Although Lily's family is a great aristocrat, her family's nature is a little different from other aristocrats."

How so?

"Lily's ancestor was actually the founder of the Adventurers Guild. Back then, he served as a civil servant beside the hero who became the founding king. With the king's approval and the support of the kingdom, he founded the Adventurers Guild. In the end, he was conferred a title and became a noble."

Vivian explained.

"Because of this, the head of the Lazahad family has been the chairman of the Adventurers Guild for generations. The people in the family also do related work in the Adventurers Guild. As the only daughter of the current head of the family, Lily is also expected to become the chairman of the Adventurers Guild headquarters in the future and inherit the Lazahad family. That is why she was sent to other territories to become the chairman of the Adventurers Guild after she came of age. Her goal was to accumulate experience."

Everyone suddenly understood.

"No wonder the only daughter of a powerful noble family would run to such a remote town to become the chairman of a guild. Is this the reason?"

Shien also felt relieved.

At the same time, Shien also understood what Vivian was trying to say.

"The Lazahad family is very friendly to adventurers. You are all friends of mine and Lily, and all of you have bright futures. I believe the head of the family will not be stingy with your hospitality." Vivian smiled and said, "Come with me."

Everyone looked at each other and finally nodded their heads.

Just like that, Vivian's team entered the Imperial City.
