Chapter 34
The next day .
Davis finally got permission from Claire and Logan to roam the Royal Capital . They agreed only on one condition . That was, he must accompanied by the Royal Guard at all times, at least close by .
Renard and two guards who were at the third step were assigned to him . The two guards were basically at the Iron Stage and Revolving Core Stage . Only Renard was at the Peak Level Iron Stage, High Level Revolving Core Stage and Mid Level Nascent Soul Stage .
Davis was excited to have the chance to roam around the Royal capital . He felt like a child who was going to experience a field trip . Of course, he didn't know what that feeling was since he didn't get to experience one .
Davis, Ellia and the Royal Guards had just exited the Royal Castle . He was still wearing the royal outfit, while the Royal Guards wore shiny Red Armor .
They went inside a carriage that reeked of the word 'Royalty' . It had royal blue patterns all over it's body, indicating that it was from the Royal Family .
After being seated, the carriage took off . They were all silent .
Davis felt like he had to say something .
"I've waited for this so long, Renard . "
"Yes, Prince . I've heard that you've been cooped up all year in the Royal Castle . "
"Hmm, that was pretty sad . " Davis replied sadly and suddenly he remembered .
"Oh yeah, I've never got to thank you for rescuing me from that place . Thank you, Mister Renard . "
"No need to thank me, Prince . It was my duty after all . " Renard said it with an indifferent face .
"Hehe . . Don't be so stiff, I want to make friends too . " Davis narrowed his eyes .
"Friends? But my status doesn't al…"
"If I say I wanna make friends, then I want to make friends, you got something to say about it?" Davis shot a glare, using his identity as a child to throw a tantrum .
"…" Eliia and the others .
"Prince, you can't be like this . You have your position and status as a Prince . Please don't make it difficult for us . " Renard smiled wryly .
If word gets out that he made friends with the Prince, then he will be suspected of taking advantage of the Prince's kindness .
" . . Alright . " Davis then realised that his kindness can also be fatal sometimes .
Davis then looked outside the carriage . The scenery was beautiful with buildings built in many different styles . On one side he could see an Old Japanese styled Manor, and on the other side, he could see an old Chinese styled Manor . Seeing that, Davis was shocked .
"What is this? Why is the buildings a mixture of so many cultures?"
"Cultures? Oh! The Prince means the architecture of the building? There are many types of architectures available from the Ancient Era . This is the New Age Era, so we don't differentiate between cultures anymore, we just take them as a type of architecture . " Renard explained .
'New Age Era! I've read about it . Looks like the Ancient Era had many people from Earth visiting this world . Looks like I'm not the only one . ' Davis thought
"Legend has it that the Sky Word Emperor sacrificed his life to bring the end of the Ancient Era . He was a man with a great ambition . He managed to use his power to grant a new language to all the living beings in the universe . This led to people and beasts communicating much better and creation of a New Era, the New Age Era . "
"Oh, now I know why it is being called the Sky Word Language or the Language of the World . " Ellia commented .
Davis kept looking at the window . He could see people walking to and fro, sometimes staring at the carriage with awe . He could see the City Guards in every street they went, they were at least at the second stage in either the Body Cultivation System or the Essence Gathering System .
Just as the carriage was passing by, he saw a building that was 4 storeys high . There was a big board in front of the building, 'Cauldon Emporium' was etched into that .
"Stop the carriage . "
"What is it Prince?"
"I want to visit that Emporium, stand guard here . "
"As you command, Prince Davis . If there are any emergencies, immediately contact me . " Renard handed him a crystal .
"I got it . " Davis took the crystal and placed it in his Storage Ring . Yesterday, he got a Earth Grade Storage Ring as his birthday present from his father .
They got out of the carriage, Davis and Ellia arrived in front of the Cauldon Emporium while the Royal Guards stood near the Carriage .
A person immediately arrived from the Cauldon Emporium . He was dressed wealthy, his body decorated with all kinds of jewelries . He had short green hair . He was plump and ran with dragged steps .
"This . . please forgive me for arriving late to pick you up, my Prince . "
"It's fine, I never said that I was going to visit this place earlier . "
"I thank the Prince for his understanding . My name is George Cauldon, I'm currently the manager of this Emporium . Let's go inside, shall we?"
Davis nodded his head looking coolly .
They then started walking inside the Emporium . He could see a lot of sellers with boards in their respective stalls, some even possessed a shop .
"So what is this place for?"
"My Prince, this place is our Cauldon family's Emporium, we sell various kind of items here . It also acts as a marketplace . A lot of vagabonds and merchants also come here to setup their shops here since we also provide high security for their merchandise . "
"Oh? You mean that I can also setup a shop here?"
"Hoho, the Prince sure can joke . "
"No, I'm serious . "
"This . . the prince can also setup a shop but no one would dare to compete with you leading to less income for us . "
"Haha, you are straightforward, I like it . "
They chatted for a few minutes as they walked . Just when they passed by the Cauldon Pill Store, Davis paused and looked at it .
"Oh, that is our Pill Store, we sell various pills of great quality in there . " George explained briefly .
He unhurriedly walked into the store . A young lady came forward and greeted them gracefully .
"Hurry, the prince is here . Get the Young Mistress here to greet the Prince . " George hurriedly sent a Soul Transmission to her .
'What!?'
She was utterly dumbfounded, then hurriedly nodded her head and went inside .
