”We’ll soon be arriving at the Capital of the Kingdom, there we’ll rest for 2 days and gather some necessities for the next part of the trip. In those 2 days, you are able to do what you want, make it count.” I knocked his head with my cane to get his attention.

”Yes master!” Ares replied as he rubbed his head.

‘How to enter the city is indeed a good question, although Ares doesn’t know that an optical illusion causes him to look like a poor and impoverished child. We still have to have a citizenship or be part of a trader’s caravan…’ I pondered, ”Halt!” the guard at the gat said as we were about to pass through, ”State your business and show your citizenship.” The guard had a stern face but was lax around me due to the old age look.

”I am visiting my grandson, he is also a priest working in the city.” I said with a smile, ”We will need his name later and you’ll get one of these guides with you, don’t try to do anything funny old man.” The guard pointed towards some men in leather gear who were probably the guides. I walked towards one of the more poor looking guides. ”I need a guide until I visit my grandson, can you help me?” I asked the man with a smile extending my hand.

The guide looked warily towards me probably thinking I’m an old poor man with no money. ‘Sigh’ ”My name is Brandon, I’ll guide you.” He shook my hand, to his surprise there are a lot of gold coins in there, ”I hope you understand what I mean with ‘guiding’ ” I smiled, Brandon took the hint and smirked, ”Of course honourable sir.”

We walked into the city towards an average looking inn, ”It is of importance to always collect information around you Ares, you will never know when snippets of information might prove fatal in the future.” I patted Ares on his shoulder while smiling. ‘Information, if only I knew those cultivators were coming, I could have reduced the casualties…’ I lamented in my brain.

Time: The same day

Location: [Kingdom of Dawn]

POV: [Unknown]

”You’re holiness this marks your 2nd return in 100 years to the Kingdom of Dawn. The schedule is pretty hectic we’ll be meeting the king upon arrival, followed by visiting the local cathedral and the day will end with a city-wide festival hosted and paid by the Holy Order.” My personal Archbishop stated, ”There are talks about the Anti-Human order being present in the surroundings, hence we have deployed multiple squads of our finest paladins as guards.” One of the 3 saints who accompanies us said respectfully.

”Mhm, understood, also how is the search going for spatial disturbances?” I remarked, ”We have only information on 3 of such events in the past one thousand years, The most recent was 100 years ago, followed by one being 150 years ago and one being 850 years ago. Neither of the 3 spatial disturbances has had its reason for appearing found.” The Archbishop quickly said.

‘I only know that I must find a man named Marshall, yet do not know his appearance nor the reason behind the urge to find him. More Humans have joined the holy order and is becoming almost humanly dominated. But I cannot allow that unless we want the wrath of the other civilizations upon us…’ I contemplated as we entered the castle area.

”Your holiness!” The king of Dawn shouted as he bowed before me, ”Alfred, it looks like you haven’t aged at all.” I smiled as I shook his hand, ”The same goes for you, your holiness!” He smiled as he let the way further into the castle. ”How have the preparations been?” I ask the King, ”If the human is a cultivator he wouldn’t let this opportunity slip, it is nearly impossible to let these cultivation resources slip so easily as they are almost unobtainable.” The king smiled smugly.

”Good, I’ll take a rest in the guest chambers before going to the Cathedral, please bring some light food to my room as I haven’t eaten the entire trip.” I walked up the stairs towards the room as I asked my Archbishop to relay the orders. ‘I will find you Marshall, and I will get answers!’ A glint was seen from my eyes as I closed the door.

Just as I was about to rest I felt a chill running through my spine I quickly shifted the weight from one left to the other ‘splitsch’ a sword pierced my shoulder coming out the other end, ”We meet again ‘Supreme pontiff’.” A man with a sinister voice said.
