As for the beasts and magical beasts that live here, they are naturally not common wild creatures but magical monsters difficult for humans to deal with.
These magical creatures would sometimes attack passersby and travelers. Although they do not become a disaster like the Moors, they are equally troublesome.
Therefore, during the carriage ride, Reiger simply kept the "Holy Rite·Aurora" activated, causing meteor-like flashes of light to hover around the carriage, moving along with it.
Whenever a beast or magical beast approached, several flashes would shoot out from around the carriage, blasting them away.
Thanks to this, near the carriage ridden by Reiger and Altoria, pits and craters occasionally appeared, looking quite alarming.
"...Britannia should be fine, right?"
Altoria was already worried that Fairy Country might end up resembling the cratered surface of the moon because of Reiger.
If it really turned out that way, she, as the Paradise Fairy, would not be here to save the world but to destroy it.
In this manner, with the carriage’s steady progress, finally, Reiger and Altoria reached their destination.
Reiger peered through the window and saw a city in the distance.
It was a city exuding a relaxed and leisurely atmosphere, like a tourist destination.
At first glance, the city looked like a limestone city, not very large, at least not when compared to many of the big cities Reiger had visited before. The gate seemed to have only one entrance. They just needed to follow this road straight ahead to reach the city.
"The Grand Cathedral of Solzbury, the most free city in Fairy Country Britannia. Although its lord is the chief of the Wind Clan, this chief is extremely tolerant towards all fairies and even humans, thus welcoming all fairy clans and humans to settle here."
Altoria’s attention shifted as well, looking at that major city so different from Tintagel, curiosity mixed with excitement surging forth.
"Solzbury is called the Grand Cathedral primarily because there is a very grand church built here."
"Back then, Queen Morgan was crowned in that church until Camelot was constructed. Queen Morgan then led her army to reside in Camelot, and this place became the territory of the Wind Clan."
"Although it doesn’t have the many fashions of Gloucester, nor the ubiquitous restaurants of Oxford, nor the readily visible workshops of Norwich, the beauty here lies in having a little bit of everything, nothing lacking."
The more Altoria talked, the more she emitted an atmosphere of being unable to wait to enter the city for a stroll, much like a country bumpkin on their first visit to the city.
"The territory of the Wind Clan, huh?"
Reiger squinted his eyes, falling into thought.
After a while, using his magic connection, Reiger signaled the eight-legged horse to stop.
The carriage immediately came to a halt, no longer moving.
"What, what happened?"
Altoria, who had been looking forward to seeing Solzbury, nearly got thrown out when the carriage suddenly stopped, barely managing to stabilize herself. She looked toward Reiger with a face full of surprise and uncertainty.
"It’s nothing," Reiger shook his head and said, "It’s just that, to be on the safe side, it would be better if we didn’t continue in the carriage."
The white eight-legged horse, this is a species not found in Fairy Country Britannia.
On the way here, Reiger had rarely seen other carriages, so he deduced that if they were to ride in the carriage all the way into Solzbury, they would certainly attract a lot of attention.
Perhaps his and Altoria’s arrival might also be noticed by the caretaker of Salisbury because of this.
If the clan chief of the Wind Clan notices them, things might start to get a bit troublesome.
Not to mention, that clan chief has a very good relationship with the clan chief of the Tusk Clan, Woodworth. As long as the former contacts Woodworth and informs them of Rieger and Altoria’s arrival in Salisbury, a big war would be inevitable.
In addition, there are some secrets about the clan chief of the Wind Clan that make Rieger extremely distrustful of her.
What’s more, her interpersonal relationships are exceedingly good; if she’s willing, several people, including Elf Knights and other clan chiefs, would be ready to act on her behalf.
"Just in case, it’s better to avoid that fairy woman until we get our hands on a map of this country and a basic supply of provisions," he decided.
Having made this decision, Rieger canceled the summoning of the eight-legged horse, sent it back, and dispelled the carriage.
Furthermore, Rieger cast illusionary magic and anti-intelligence magic to change his appearance.
"How do I look with this appearance?"
Saying this, Rieger not only had the same blond hair and blue eyes as Altoria, but also grew wings on his back and his ears became pointed, transforming entirely into a fairy of the Wind Clan.
"Why, why would you want to look ?"
Seeing Rieger with blond hair and blue eyes just like her own, Altoria couldn’t help but panic.
"Is there a problem?" Rieger asked, puzzled.
"...No," Altoria murmured, her face turning a bit red as she looked down.
Of course, she wouldn’t tell Rieger that her panic was due to an overwhelming sense of happiness.
After all, someone was willing to become like her, which secretly pleased her, especially since deep down, she felt a bit inferior.
The only pity was that Rieger had grown wings on his back and his ears had become pointed, features she did not possess, which made Altoria feel somewhat uncomfortable.
"Should I also get wings and pointed ears?" Altoria muttered to herself.
"If you want, I can sort that out for you," Rieger offered, and with a wave of his hand, wings grew on Altoria’s back and her ears became pointed.
"Alright, let’s go," he said.
With that, the two of them headed towards Salisbury.
Before long, the pair successfully passed the gatekeeper’s inspection and entered the city district.
