This was definitely the highest populated place I had been to since I have been to this world. There were people everywhere and the streets were filled. Soon, the cart was reduced to a crawl. Technically, he’d take us to the nearest inn, but with storage rings, we weren’t really carrying anything and we were eager to explore the city. None of the girls had been to a city like this any more than I had. It didn’t have quite the same appeal as a Los Vegas or a New York, but I still found myself very excited to start exploring the city.

I finished paying off the fees to the wagoneer and bid him a good day. Then, the girls and I began to walk through the streets of the city. I managed to find a vender with a map that was likely ten times the price it was worth. As soon as I glanced at it, I brought up my own map, and I couldn’t help but break into a smile as I saw the information recorded accurately over. So, Map could do stuff like that, huh? What if the map was wrong? Well, it’d probably be a similar situation as if the map changed.

For example, I had Chalm mapped out, but during the few weeks I had gone, several new structures appeared on the streets. However, my map didn’t contain them until I approached the areas and it got updated. That had some harsh realities about the map. Although, I couldn’t teleport to somewhere unless I had already been there. So, what happened if I visited someplace, and then they built a wall there and I tried to return. Would I teleport right into the wall? That was a concern I was starting to have.

“Wow… the city is incredible!” Lydia giggled.

“I’m getting dizzy…” Celeste said.

“Then stop spinning around!” Miki grabbed Celeste to keep her from turning around in yet another circle as she took in all the sights.

“Master… are we going to look for an inn first? Although the city is nice, I’d actually like to clean up before we go.”

The other girls all nodded excitedly in agreement.

“Actually, now that you mention it, I had a different idea,” I said, scratching my cheek. “We have a fair amount of money, so I’m thinking we should buy a property in the Capitol.”

I really didn’t know what prices in the city would look like. I was hoping I had the money, but I could only be rich when compared to the country folk. Still, even the smallest place would do. I really just wanted a location to be able to safely cast portal so that I could enter and leave the city. Even if the place was so small that the portal was all that fit, we could always return and sleep in Chalm and portal back to the city the next day.

In fact, I found that you could portal for every point you put into the Portal skill. The two points I had earned through Terra’s Dungeon were now in Portal, allowing me to cast the spell three times a day. Add to that my presence in the Capitol city, and I was starting to feel mobile for the first time since I came to this world.

I ended up paying the guy for the map anyway and handing it to Lydia as my backup. As I handed him the money, I asked about buying property in the city.

“Only nobles can buy property in the city.” The man said.

Ah… well, it was a good thing that was on my list too.

“In that case, where is the registrar?”
