Chapter 471 Titles Aren’t Useless

The hooded man, despite having many swords at his neck, didn't panic and was calm.

He didn't say anything nor react to the sudden betrayal.

The woman, noticing the man not reacting, frowned.

"Guards, kill him."

The woman didn't want anything to go wrong and immediately made her decision to kill the man.

But as soon as the guards moved their swords to kill the man, an air piercing sound was heard and in the next instant, the bodies of the four guards fell down with a loud thud.

"What!?" The woman was shocked.

The man with a hood, said with a light chuckle, "did you think I wouldn't be prepared for such a situation? Lady from the Gilzerios?"

As soon as he finished saying that, another person wearing a hooded robe appeared beside the man.

"I knew your family would be backstabbing us but I didn't know at what stage. Thankfully, I've had a trump card prepared just in case." The man said while walking close to the Gilzerios family's lady.

The woman's brows were knitted and the only thing in her mind right now was to escape. The guards that were killed were of a high level and someone being able to kill all of them in such a short time was definitely someone strong.

The woman didn't want to take a risk.

"Run!" The woman ran towards the forest and shouted to her partner who had the goods with him.

But before she could move farther, her vision darkened and she fell unconscious on the ground.

Standing beside her was the person who just killed the guards, responsible for Knocking her out.

"Good job, Mr. William. I knew I could trust you." The man from the Scalanis family said and walked towards the lady.

Mr. William, the man standing beside the lady, didn't reply to the person's words and went towards the third person who had the goods.

He eventually knocked him out as well and took the goods with him.

The person from the Scalanis family, after finding everything was under control, sighed in relief.

"Thankfully everything is okay. If I had messed this situation up, I don't know what my family would do with me."

The man then turned to look towards William and said, "thankfully you were here, Mr. William. You're a life sav–"

Thud!

The man's vision darkened as well before he could finish his sentence and he fell down on the ground.

The hooded man, the only one remaining, placed his foot on the man's head and then removed his hood.

A chiseled face was visible along with his black hair and eyes. His eyes were calm and his hair fluttered with the breeze.

He looked down at the two people and said in a neutral tone, "who would've thought that both would end up having losses and I would be the sole winner among the two."

The man then took the box and said softly, "in the inventory."

[Ding!]

[10ml Tears of the NightHound and 16 grams of sweat of the Yellowtail added into the inventory.]

A mechanical voice said inside the man's head and a notification screen appeared in front of his eyes.

"Good. I now have the ingredients needed to feed the baby and harvest his affinities. I must get working, I also need to be back in the Elven Continent to reap as many benefits as I can from the coupe these nobles are planning."

"But before going, I must make it appear that these two people killed each other and there was no third party present and I also haven't seen my status in quite a long time."

"System, show status."

A new screen appeared in front of the person's eyes and in his mind, a mechanical voice read:

[Status]

Name: Lucas Aleron

Race: Human

Title: Shadow Walker (Buff: none)

Rank: 9

Cultivation:

– Affinity: Fire, Dark, Lightning, Earth, and Wind.

– Magic Core area: 77,296,432 km2

– Magic Core speciality: None

– Body Stats:

– HP: [A class] 100/100

– SP: [A class] 78/100

– STR: [B class] 97/100 (upgradeable)

– STA: [B class] 71/100 (upgradeable)

– AGL: [A class] 12/100 (upgradeable)

– INT: [A class] 100/100 (ready to upgrade)

Looking at the screen in front of him, Lucas, the only system user in the world, thought to himself,

'I am lacking in strength and stamina. I increased agility and intelligence a bit too much. Though it would be nice to have a higher class something, it's not worth it to upgrade intelligence for now. I'll put it on hold and work on other things.'

Lucas then thought, 'titles can provide buff now? Interesting. I thought it was there just for show.'

A while of checking his stats later, his gaze fell on the elemental affinity and he couldn't help but knit his brows and say while looking in a certain direction,

"Just a few more months and I'll have an all elemental affinity."

"Just a few more…"

A day passed.

After enjoying watching the cherry blossoms and spending some quality time together with his mother and sister, Lith was now in another part of the Celadon City.

Celadon City was the perfect place for tourists if they wanted to see a glimpse of the beastkin culture. There was a little bit of everything present here.

This was a strategy by the beastkins to increase tourism to different places in their kingdom and eventually get a lot of money.

Say one saw different shrines in the Celadon City and found them interesting, they could always use the teleportation circles present near those shrines and eventually end up visiting the various monasteries and shrines spread across the entire beastkin kingdom.

Lith chose Celadon City for this very reason to go on a date with his mother.

If he liked some place, he could always go there and spend some time.

Thus, in the Celadon City, Lith and Lilith were roaming around, looking at the various different things currently.

Lucy had left last night after Lilith felt satisfied and her mood got better.

Lith was now back to being on a date and being in kimonos, both he and his mother were walking the streets of the Celadon City, holding hands.

Celadon City was big but it was not an issue to walk and tour it.

One could easily travel a distance of a hundred kilometres within a few minutes depending on the way they walked or ran.

This world was way bigger than Lith's previous one and everything was abnormal in size.

If one walked normally, it would take at least one day to cover a hundred kilometres.

But this issue never arised in this world since all roads and footpaths in the places where people lived had magic circles inscribed on them when in the making.

These magic circles had a speed boost on them and depending on how one walked, they could easily travel thousands of kilometres in less than an hour.

Taking one step would make anyone cover a minimum of half a kilometre and a maximum of two kilometres. Average being one kilometre. That was how fast everything was here.

For comparison, on Earth, one step was equivalent to 0.001 kilometres which is one metre.

That is to say, a step here covered a thousand times more distance than back on Earth.

Lith was amazed when he found out about such a fact. But when he got deeper into the situation regarding travelling here, his brain seemed to get fried and he gave up dwelling too deep into it.

It was a bunch of complex maths and useless magic information to know why one could travel so much in so little time and knowing it wouldn't help Lith in any way.

He wasn't going to construct roads now, was he?

In any case, the cities in this world were hence made of two types.

The first type was a city having an outward growth and the second type was a city having an inward growth.

In the first type, a city would spread far to many places and various things would be spread out. The people in this place would need to cover a lot of distance for their travels. An example of this was Celadon City.

The second type was a city that spread towards the centre of it. Everything, from trade to residences, etc would be present in the centre and here one could find many tall buildings.

The outside areas in these cities wouldn't be as developed as the main centre and there wouldn't be many people living there as well.

An example of this was Evernight City in Nightingale, Lith's home.

People tried to stay as close as they could to the Queen's district and everything was nearby there. The roads over there didn't have speed boost to the degree with which Celadon City had it.

Thus, although Celadon City had a lot to offer and was vast, Lith and Lilith toured the entirety of it in just a single day.

There were many fun places to see and the one that attracted Lith's attention the most were the hot spring resorts in the mountainous region of the Shiroi Neko Country.

Yukonava mountains was a famous place in all of the beastkin kingdom, known for having evergreen trees all year round with low temperature and snow occurring periodically.

This calm and cold atmosphere coupled with the warm water of the hot springs was a delight for all.

Lith decided that this was a perfect place for cuddling and knowing how his mother's mood wasn't good these past few days, he came to a conclusion that she was in much need of some serious cuddles.

Without hesitation, Lith dragged Lilith in the teleportation circles present near the hot springs in Celadon City and both teleported away from the city.

Their next destination — Yukonava.
