Hearing his words, Elena felt defeated, as she had only heard a couple words, due to her being too preoccupied with playing with the holographic screen in her hand. Another reason for her feeling of defeat was due to the fact that what Hui Shi said was also a bit too complicated for her young mind, and she couldn’t fully understand the concepts that he uttered from his mouth, so she could only accept her defeat, and continue playing with the holographic screen in her hand, while the group continued on with their journey.

Feeling enlightened, Lain on the other hand quickly thanked Hui Shi for his explanation, as he thought ‘There are so many interesting things in this world. First was the evil man with his creepy insect, now there’s such a thing as runes and instruments. It seems I still have much to learn on this journey of mine.’

The group then continued on their journey in peace, hoping to get to the gate before the day is over.

After hours of trekking, the group finally arrived at the front gates, just when the two glowing suns in the sky, one green, and the other golden, disappeared into the horizon and the evening sky filled with stars welcomed them with opened arms.

The group, feeling tired, were met by the two guards that were dressed head to toe in armor with complicated light blue, glowing rune lines carved all over them.

Having arrived, Lain couldn’t help but look around him once more at the outskirts of the city, before they went inside the gates. The moment he looked, he was greeted by the most peaceful sight that he’s ever seen in a while. The night, filled with stars of various sizes, was truly wondrous to see. Then there were the green grasses that were covered in a hint of evening dew, that at some point in time had grown long green stalks with beautiful pink and blue flowers situated at the top end of them. Giving Lain the feeling of standing within a wondrous river of pink and blue.

The fresh breeze blowing in the night sky permeated a slightly sweet smell into the air that seemed to erase all feelings of hunger and tiredness from Lain’s body, as colorful butterflies and incandescent insects of various colors danced around in the air, while going from flower to flower.

The opened gates, upon closer look, were magnificent to behold. Countless miles in height, and over 20 miles in length, Lain could only gawk at the intricacies of its design. Drawn on the gates were complicated runes in the shape of majestic creatures that he had never seen before in his entire life. There were creatures with lithe figures, looking like they were prancing majestically through a mystical forest, bringing delight and joy to those who chanced upon them, as well and large, ferocious and monstrous figures that looked like they could devour the world, and destroy the heavens.
