Chapter 13: The Capital Tirif
Elias looked at this massive city in awe, never in a million years would he be able to see such sights in the forest, which also made him more grateful to his father for arranging this mission for him.
“Fufufu… lord do you want to go sightseeing first or just go straight to an inn” Jessica said with an amused tone as she saw Elias’s expression.
Elias quickly fixed his expression back into a serious gaze, but still couldn't help himself as he still looked around secretly “Hmm… First I believe we should go and rent a room at an inn first, and then you can guide me around, until we go back to train for the entrance exam ok”.
“Yes of course” Jessica quickly replied.
Walking through the city, Elias’s gaze couldn't help but shift from one thing to another such as the blacksmiths, alchemists, training areas, food shops and the different people around him, that seemed to be attracted to his and Jessica’s noble aura.
Getting to an appropriate inn, the pair headed in and rented a room for two weeks just in case, for nine gold, which again people were shocked when, Elias used his inter-spatial ring.
After checking out their room which was surprisingly very nice as it seemed to have been well treated by the owners of the inn.
Stepping out into the busy streets again, Jessica showed Elias all of the main areas of the city such as the palace, the market square which had a golden statue with guards around it apparently it was the founder of the capital who had reached the immortal rank and hence moved over to the immortal continent and where the entrance exam will take place which was a large platform with a twelve foot crystal embedded into the wall next to the stage.
Going back to there room, Jessica explained the entrance exam rules to Elias who listened without interrupting, it was like this: The heads of the exam will call names up one by one and will then put there hand on the crystal wall which will then show their whole name, age and Ki rank after the wall has judged you there will be a chance for the representative of a sect to try and recruit you, and if you accept a request people will then be eligible to duel you, if they win they will get your spot in the sect no matter what there Ki rank is like but if you win they will not be eligible to be accepted into a sect anymore.
Elias liked these rules a lot as they have a balance talent and battle sense.
As they reached the entrance of the inn they were immediately stopped by four brutish looking guards, sensing them they were all at the C rank, and because Elias couldn't be bothered with the hassle, he passed the job of dealing with them to Jessica who immediately got in a rage.
In her rage, she immediately let her Ki seep out creating an oppressive atmosphere around the inn, so it wouldn't affect the people not involved, by letting her Ki out her hair started to lift, creating a she-demon appearance which Elias laughed at a bit while the guards quickly felt their backs stick to their shirts due to sweat.
“YOU. DARE. BLOCK. MY. LORDS. PATH!!” shouting this at the guards making them dazed from the shout. Elias didn't really know why she was this mad but didn't question it as it was very amusing watching four fully grown adults get beaten up by a little girl.
After dealing with the guards which was just knocking them out while they were dazed by the shout they walked into the inn only to see a seventeen year old boy with two body guards next to him who were at the B rank, Elias knew that this person had a very big background, as not anyone can hire two B ranks to guard someone as they usually were mainly focused on fusing their elements.

The seventeen year old who had quite an average looking face coupled with his black eyes and brown hair wouldn't really gain anyone’s attention, but what did grab Elias’s attention was his C rank in cultivation and at the age of seventeen was a pretty big feat in the human continent, but to Elias he quickly brushed this off and looked at him with his usual indifferent glare.
The boy looked at the two who walked in with surprise as he didn't expect the ones who dealt with the four C ranked guards would be two kids. But as soon as he looked at Jessica his secret perverse personality kicked in as he saw her doll like feature coupled with her Lolita dress would make any man mouth water.
But as he glance at the younger kid, he didn't feel anything from him so he didn't really put him as a challenge so he quickly said trying to make a good impression to the lady before him “My lady, I am terribly sorry for my guards, incompetence for blocking someone like you, if you would allow me I would like to express my apologies by taking you out somewhere entirely my treat, what do you say”.
Acknowledging his actual intentions Jessica quickly retorted “Humph… you dare block my lord path and then even have the audacity to brush him off like he’s nothing, if it wasn't for my lords mercy he would have already crushed you… but of course my lord wouldn't really want to dirty his hands with people like you”.
Hearing this the boy’s face quickly darkened into an animal like state as not once has he not been able to get what he wanted in his life due to his background, so he quickly barked to his guards “You two take her away for me, and just kill the midget!!”.
The two guards nodded as they ran towards Jessica as there Ki aura was showing there might while Jessica did the same, but just as they were about to clash, Elias seemingly walked in front of the three and released not his Ki aura but his blood lust which quickly made the two guards stop in their tracks. Elias looked at the two and a small smile came to his mouth as he intensified the blood lust which made the two lower their heads and almost bow to him. Elias walked up to them and whispered “Don't fuck with me or I'll slaughter you all, and tell your superior to back off unless he wants to be a cripple for the rest of his life kukuku”.
While this happened the young boy was very shocked as he didn’t feel the enormous blood lust from the young boy, and just saw his two guards which his father guaranteed bow to the boy, and after he whispered a bit to them he walked off with the young lady he wanted.
Furious he barked at the two ashen face guards “What are you two incompetent people doing letting my prize get away just because you are scared of a little boy, where’s your pride!” the two guards were about to pass on the warning but seeing the arrogant and spoiled boy in front of them they just said “We are terribly sorry m'lord but we just wanted you to show how talented you are to the girl and boy and put them in their place, I believe they will show up on the entrance exam so you could show them there seeing as they are staying in an inn”.
The young boy thought for a bit and then nodded his head in approval “Hmm… of course I was already thinking of that hehe that'll show them peasants” as he said this he headed to his own room, not noticing the two guards snickering behind him.
