Chapter 193   - Kelberg City

After having a comfy sleep at the inn, the next day had arrived and it was time for Ray and the other two to head off again to continue their journey. Before heading off though, Ray had decided to update Slyvia and the others back at Avrion of the situation.

Slyvia agreed that the best decision would be to send some knights to cover the nearby towns to stop cases like this happening in the future. All though they didn't have many knights compared to before, it was unlikely that the Dark guild or the Shadow plague were planning another attack any time soon.

What the city needed to do now more than ever, was build good relations with the people nearby so they could come to trust the Red wings.

Ray had also informed Slyvia of what Gorden had told him about Demons. It seemed like Slyvia had no clue about these so-called Demons either and only Von knew about them as a myth.

However, when Ray had told Slyvia of these Demons she went to check out if she could find anything about them in the Dragon knights journals and they indeed had written down something about them.

Unfortunately, Slyvia had yet to decode this part but would update Ray as soon as she did.

The town was happy to gift Ray and the others a free carriage and horse for the journey. Gorden insisted that they take it for free after all the money that they got back from the imposters was more than enough to cover for it. But Ray refused and paid them for the horses and carriages anyway.

Now that they were no longer traveling on foot, Ray and the others were able to make quick time and would be able to reach the city in a couple of days. There were no huge incidents on the way to the city other than a few basic beasts here and there.

Ray was very disappointed that he still hadn't located any advanced beasts for him to defeat. If he wanted to level up and get stronger the next step was to get more crystals but like the rumours suggested Alure kingdom wasn't a place full of high-level beasts.

Finally, after two days they had finally arrived at Kelberg city. The wall surrounding the city was round in shape unlike the square style Avrion had and Kelberg was around three times bigger.

Kelberg was known as the city of merchants, as most merchants would have their base located at Kelberg. It was the biggest trading centre in all of Allure kingdom and also had the biggest markets. Adventures, Guilds and Nobles who hard their own armies would often come here to try find a good deal on equipment.

It was also located further in land, away from the border line meaning it was safe from not only the Shadow plague but the other kingdoms and Empire below as well.

Upon reaching the gate the three of them had to pay an entrance fee of two silver coins per person but once they had entered once, they were free to come and go as they pleased.

"WOW THIS IS AMAZING!" Gary said as soon as he stepped through the city gates.

Unlike Avrion the streets were filled with people all smiling and playing about. The streets were wide and filled with market stalls centred down the middle, they sold general goods and some were selling beast cores and weapons.

Gary felt like he was a kid in a candy shop. Jack didn't care for much of the weapons or shiny things, he was more interested in the food. As soon as he stepped into the city he could smell the meat juices flowing in the air.

His nose was already telling him which direction to head in.

Ray could tell the two of them were excited just from being here.

"Here take this and you two go and have fun," Ray said as he handed each of them a gold coin and a silver coin each.

"Isn't this the nearly all of our money?" Gary asked.

Ray had received 10 gold coins in total from Slyvia he had already spent 5 gold coins creating the guild and paid 2 silver for the horses and Carriage. Then there was also the 2 silver each for the entrance fee leaving Ray with 3 gold coins.

"We can always get more, you two go buy yourself some good equipment and get some food. Enjoy yourself it's the first time we've been to a new city. When I need to call you guys I'll send you a message."

Jack and Gary didn't have to wait for Ray to ask twice and immediately headed off to explore the city and the Market stalls.

While Jack and Gary were busy shopping, Ray needed to try to gather information about the Quest in search for the Demon man. There was only one place for that, and that was the guild halls.

The only problem was Kelberg had a total of three Guild halls. Two of them were owned by Guilds while one of them was owned by the city. Ray decided to the city one first for information.

After getting some Kebab sticks for Jack, he was satisfied to go wherever Gary wanted to go. Gary decided to immediately head to the weapon section of the market. After using the strange new sword Gary realized how important it was to have good equipment.

After searching the market for a while, Gary spotted something from the corner of his eye. It was a beautiful white one-handed sword. It had a nice ripple wave pattern going down the edge of the sword and the handle had an outline of beautiful white feathers.

Gary had never seen such a beautiful sword in his life.

"This is it, this one I have to get!" Gary said.

"Hey, mister how much for this sword here?" Two voices said at the same time.

When Gary said those words, he felt like he had heard another voice say the same thing and when he turned around, he could see a girl by his side looking at the same sword.
