The next day I boarded a Floating Ship, everyone was in the Dungeon so no problem, I was wearing an eye patch and had changed the shape of my face so no one would recognize me while Orion was on my shoulder in his puppy form to help hide my Aura.
"This one looks more like a yacht than a ship like the others." (I)
"It's quite big, it seems to have a lot of interior space full of corridors, it would be difficult to fight inside a place like that." (Orion)
"We're not going to fight, we're getting the most expensive and safest transport on the market for a reason." (I)
"What if we are attacked?" (Orion)
"Let's just enjoy the trip, if there are any monster attacks then security will take care of them." (I)
The trip was very interesting, when the Floating Ship arrived at its destination, in the capital of the Kingdom where the teleportation gate was, the Floating Ship was in pieces.
There was a hole in the side of the Floating Ship, and lots of burn marks, claws, and dents, this thing was so wrecked from the outside I don't even know how it kept flying.
So it landed in a place with supports to keep it in place, but a part of the Floating Ship fell.
Passengers were terrified and scared as they almost ran down from this Floating Ship, but I descended calmly with Orion in puppy form on my shoulder looking around.
"I'm surprised we made it this far without casualties." (Orion)
"Say that to those who lost limbs defending the Floating Ship." (I)
"If the limbs were reattached or regrown, then they haven't permanently lost their limbs." (Orion)
10 minutes after the Floating Ship started the voyage we were attacked by a powerful monster enveloped by a black mist, after that there were huge flocks of monster birds, pirates on floating ships, and finally horrible storms.
The whole trip was very "exciting" with so many strange happenings, the screams and moans were heard many times from the passengers, but I kept inside the Floating Ship the whole time without getting involved, one of the reasons was because I was hiding and the other it was because he was too weak to help in these situations.
There were even some people who chose to abandon this Floating Ship saying it was cursed, it seems that something has never happened before, there was even an investigation inside the Floating Ship with people looking for signs of a curse or things to attract monsters, of course, nothing like that was found, these incidents were just bad luck.
"I'm glad no one let you use that Floating Ship we stole." (Orion)
"I think it would be a bad idea to travel alone on this continent, it can be dangerous." (I)
"Master anywhere is dangerous with you around." (Orion)
After we arrived in the city I went to find out how to use the teleportation gate, it seems that you need to schedule and pay in advance for a space, the gate is configured for different places per day, in addition the value of each space is very high, worth 10 coins where I'm going and the cheapest price anywhere else would be 1 crystal coin.
(Author's Note: remembering that 1 crystal coin = 10000 gold coins.)
I have a lot of money so I paid, but I have to find a place to stay for two days, looks like I got one of the last spots for the Arima Kingdom.
It also seems like the right city, which will save me the trouble of traveling even more than I already have.
"I still think I could have used poison." (Layla)
"It couldn't, it would have drawn the attention of her companions." (I)
"Even if she was weak, her mates weren't." (I)
"Érica would have put a curse on them." (Layla)
"Nas was a little amusing to see her fall to the ground unable to get up." (Layla)
Today was the scheduled day for me to finally use the teleportation gate to go to the Arima Kingdom, I am returning from a restaurant where I ate something before leaving, there was a group of loud people partying at the table next to me, one of the women in the group, the weakest from what she could feel, got drunk and started to pester me, tried to kiss me more than once and wouldn't let go.
Since she wouldn't stop and I didn't want to use force against someone who wasn't in her right mind, I ended up giving her what she wanted, I gave her a kiss and transferred my Aura to her through our tongues, I used the lust effects, charm and love in my Aura.
That was enough to make her legs go soft and her friends unable to see anything I'd done other than kiss her, I learned to do this to get rid of Ibuki when I'm busy, with the others it doesn't work.
After I left there I went straight to the place where the teleportation gate is, it was a place with a dome around it heavily guarded, I focused my Aura on my eyes allowing to see many things like the building protections and barriers around.
In order to get in, I also have to go through some verification, answer a few questions to confirm that I'm not a criminal, verify that I look real, and make sure I'm not using any crappy storage items without protection from spatial interference.
I left all my storage items inside the dungeon and only had two of the best quality possible with me, Layla had already returned to the dungeon, she and Nix closed the gates on my shadow.
Nix stayed inside the rented room where I stayed these two days, when I get to my destination I'll summon her close to me.
Also, the fake face I'm wearing was made by reshaping my bone structure and muscles, so any kind of check will just show that it's my real face.
After I went through all these checks, I was taken to the great hall where a door 10 meters high and 8 meters wide was, the door was in the middle of a complex magic circle and with thousands of Runes around the crystal frame of the giant door.
"Those who are heading to the Arima Kingdom, stand in position where I am, we will open the gate in 10 minutes!"
"Looks like my turn is near." (I)
