3766 Journey

I wanted to jump in joy, but I controlled my emotions and stepped into the teleportation gate.

Step!

Two seconds later, I stepped into a bustling square, with a white marble building around me. It is a Razaal city, the administrative capital of Razaal's territories.

It is a big city, not the biggest one I have seen, but still big.

I wanted to get out of the city immediatly, but I didn't instead. I roamed around it for three hours and brought a few things before booking a suit in a hotel.

I will leave the city tomorrow and will have a week before they discover the problem with my identity. It is not enough to get out of Razaal territories, but more than enough to become someone else.

They won't be able to find me. Even if they scanned every person.

I set up a few formations before closing my eyes. I open them in the evening, when I freshen up, and have dinner, before closing my eyes again.

I opened them at midnight before sleeping.

When I woke up the next day, I did what daily do every day, but this time. I didn't lay down on the couch.

Click!

Instead, I got out of the suit and a few minutes later, I was at the city gates.

There were three Earth Sovereigns in there. One's soul sense was visible, while the two kept their hidden. They didn't discover me, nor did I expect them to. If Sky Sovereigns weren't able to discover me; there is no way, the earth Sovereigns would.

I got out of the city gates and looked at the forest ahead of me.

It looked like a forest but was no forest. They had killed nearly all the monsters, and those that remained only posed a threat to those below the Sovereign.

I am in the territory of the organization called Raazal, which is in the Traris Region of the seidon continent. It is a huge continent, slightly bigger than even aonsil continent, where Tor is.

My destination is clavin city; it is the boundary city of an hanjis organization.

It is a sky-grade organization; there is nothing special about it, except that I was finally able to use the teleportation formation there safely to move east.

It is also the organization, which doesn't share the optimal relations with the Razaal. So, even if someone found out, that I had gone there; they wouldn't be chasing me there.

Though, I wouldn't let that happen.

By evening, I would become a ghost. They will never see a person named Markus again.

I moved with the sovereign's speed, which is quite slow, but it is safer, that I maintain the façade. A sovereign is a lot of noticeable than the earth sovereign.

Though, it will be only for today, from tomorrow. I will move with stealth and have enough confidence that I will be able to discover the Sky Sovereigns before they discover me.

I now even have a sample of their soul sense, which will make them sneak on me even harder.

A few hours passed, and I was in the forest, wearing a completely different face and identity. I stayed away from most people, but talked to those who came to me.

I could see a few Earth Sovereigns, along with hundreds of Sovereigns moving around, searching.

They really want to find me. It seemed like, they were more scared than I had thought. I hope they will tone it down; it won't take long for other organization to notice their strange behavior.

They will try to snoop around and might even find out what is happening inside. It will be the end of them if they succeed.

Soon, it was evening, and I continued with my travels till ten before setting up the abode. Hours passed and at dawn, I came out and a few hours later; I had completely disappeared.

Three days passed, and I had crossed a massive distance by moving with stealth.

I was able to cross more distance than I had thought, but it couldn't be compared to the teleportation formation. Nearly all the cities of Razaal are connected to it. If they hadn't been searching for me; I would have been at my destination.

It is only for a few days.

Once I reached clavin city, the journey would be much easier. Though, long, I will need, to cross thousands of cities to reach any of the big western ports.

From there will be a ship; it will be a very long journey from there and a dangerous one, unless of course. I found those dangerous, ancient teleportation formations, which would take me to my destination in minutes.

I couldn't help but smile, thinking about that.

Another day passed, and I stopped for a night. I didn't immediately take out my abode, instead sat by a lake in stealth, watching the monsters drinking water from the lake.

There is a precarious balance in there between the predator and prey.

Once it breaks away, there will be a bloodbath. One might expect it to be quite common, since how monsters are always killing each other, but it is rarer.

Everybody wants water and nobody wants to mess up the balance; it will create trouble for everyone. However, that doesn't mean the predators didn't like to use this opportunity to hunt.

They do, and the prey had found quite creative ways to avoid that.

I watched for an hour, before taking out my abode and entered inside. The next day, I was out, before dawn.

I am nearly at the boundary of the Raazal, by afternoon, I would cross it and enter hanjis's territory and by tomorrow morning, I would be at clavin.

I didn't plan to sleep today. I want to reach clavin as soon as possible. Collect information, I wasn't able to do at Raazal before taking their teleportation gate.

Hun!

I was in thought when suddenly I sensed something from my core and when I realized what it was, my expressions couldn't help, but turn back.

"I really don't need this right now," I said, irritatingly, but stopped.

There is no running away from it. I did it too many times to realize how futile it is. I will just quickly finish it up and be on my way.
