"So that's how it is... Your life is really sad, I didn't expect that you would walk to this place." commented a guard, unable to contain his sadness.
When he heard my life story, he knew that I was a good person.
Currently, we are sitting near the forest where I was before.
At first, I was interrogated intensively by them.
But, because they didn't find anything strange.
Finally, the guards, they decided that I was a traveler.
Even so, there were some of them who did not let down their guard.
The reason was clear, it was because they didn't want to disturb the people on this train.
Otherwise, they are afraid that the person will scold them.
"The point is, I understand that you want to start your journey in the empire. But why the empire? Isn't there a much better place?" the guard asked, thinking I was crazy.
In the empire, starting a new life is not an easy thing.
Unless, the person has talent above the Red stage.
And, since he knew that I only had Red stage talent, he couldn't help but ask.
In his mind, he knew that my future was very limited.
Of course, it would definitely be impossible for me to reach the Warrior stage.
Still, he was curious about why I had to choose the empire.
"I don't know... I don't know why I wanted to go to that place, but one thing is certain. I intend to start all over again." I answered, without showing the slightest lie.
It was true, there were still other paths besides leading to the empire.
But I meant to do something, which I shouldn't have done.
I want to become stronger, I want to know more about this world.
I thought, going out into the world would give me more benefits.
Plus, I have obtained a system which can improve my talents.
With that alone, I know that my future is limitless.
Certainly, I will be able to reach the level that my father has achieved so far.
"What's that?"
"I know it's strange, but I prefer to start there. In the end, that's where it all starts."
Without realizing it, a slight smirk appeared on the guard's face.
"Well... Since this is your journey to start your life, I won't stop you."
"Ah, right. You have to try this, this is the soup made by our greatest warriors."
"Hm?" For a moment, a hint of confusion crossed my face.
I don't know why, but this guard suddenly gave me food.
Surprisingly, this food only contains carrots, meat and potatoes.
Even so, the smell produced is very delicious.
Without realizing it, I swallowed my saliva.
During these three days, I only ate meat from my hunt.
Plus, what I ate was very bland!
Because of that, my stomach involuntarily started making strange sounds.
'Damn... I might as well accept this man's gift.' I thought, unable to contain my hunger.
If I eat this soup, I will definitely be able to restore my energy.
Which, I've been hiding all this time.
"Thank You..."
When I tried to drink it, I felt my whole body became fresh again.
As if, I had just returned from an endless desert.
"Delicious..." I praised, without stopping eating the food in my hand.
Just look, the guards' expressions, their jaws dropped.
However, this only lasted for a moment.
Before finally, everything returned to normal.
"Princess, this is the soup I prepared for you."
"As always, the taste of this soup never disappoints." commented a woman, that woman, she was right in the horse-drawn carriage.
"I am glad to hear it."
"Who's she?" I asked, turning my head slightly towards the guard beside me.
"She is the Emperor's youngest daughter, she is very strong. At not even 16 years old, she has already touched the threshold of the Innate stage."
"She is currently at the Inner Core stage."
