The next day, Zich and his companions went up to the capital with D’niel’s guidance. The villages they visited while passing through were not much different from the first village. However, some of the villages they passed by were big enough to be considered a town or even a city. Everyone also admired the enormous walls made out of large, thick trees intertwined together.

After they continued to walk through the forest, a massive city that far surpassed all the villages in size appeared in view.

“Woow~!”

Snoc’s admiration burst out at the sight in front of him; while it was to a different extent, the other people in the group also let out their admiration. From the ridge, they saw the city stretched beneath them. To humans, it was a city that was strange and exotic, but nevertheless very beautiful. The city was big and a beautiful lake was part of it. Although the walls made out of trees were covering the city, the wall did not cover the lake area. Thanks to the natural terrain, there was no need to put a wall next to the lake.
