Chapter 682: Kingdom of Aldoria

Three weeks after leaving the order's secret altar in the Chutha Dynasty, Vicente's group had traveled a long way, leaving the dynasty and entering the Kingdom of Aldoria.

The Kingdom of Aldoria was a prosperous land located in the center-south of the Polaris Realm. Due to its location bordering the central part of the continent, it was a much wealthier state than the Chutha Dynasty and the Kenyth Empire.

The mana and elements in the area were much denser and more vibrant, with a much greater chance of special resources and places like magic wells naturally appearing throughout its territory than in states further south on the continent.

Because of this, the living beings that lived there were naturally more powerful on average than those in the far south of the continent.

There were more forces with Paragons in their ranks in this state, and although there were no known archmages living there, there were rumors of sixth-level magicians passing through from time to time.

Precisely because it had a "powerful" population by the standards of the southern region, the place was naturally rich, with many renowned magicians, where one could find rare resources in the south of the continent with relative ease.

The Kingdom of Aldoria was a hereditary monarchy, like most of the states in the Polaris Realm. But it had one difference from the Seidel Kingdom. In this place, a woman could lead her own family or even be the reigning queen.

The House of Aldor ruled these lands with a firm fist, but there were sects and clans that had their own armies in the area, so it wasn't as difficult to start your own force in this state as it was in the Seidel Kingdom.

Its capital city was located in the center of its territory. The state was characterized by its large area and rectangular shape, which meant that it bordered several states in the west and east, but only one state was in the south and one in the north.

The Kingdom of Aldoria had no major enemies in its neighboring states, so it was relatively easy to enter the state. There were no border guards, so you only had to worry about problems with official forces if you tried to enter a city.

Vicente's group had planned to stop in a city in this kingdom to replenish the resources they had used up since leaving Grandis. But they still had a few days to travel to that stop and were now camped in the Duchy of Valoria, in the south of the state.

The duchy was very far north-south, which would of course prolong the group's journey through this state until they had a chance to reach the northern border of the Kingdom of Eternal Dawn.

However, the party wasn't worried about that as they rested in one of the duchy's forests. After nine more battles against hordes of uncontrollable magical creatures in the last few weeks, they had plenty of opportunities to train their skills and have fun on the way.

The monsters grew stronger as they traveled north, but the group didn't see this as a problem. They all knew how important fighting was for the magical strengthening of their race.

Apart from that, every time they killed a horde of monsters, they would get things that could generate a lot of resources and opportunities for them once they entered the city they were targeting very soon.

So the group was very satisfied with the challenges they had faced so far!

...

Another day dawned, and Vicente's group was still stuck in the temporary camp they had set up two nights before.

There, Layla and Lina sat across from each other, drinking hot drinks and talking in hushed tones.

Sarah had just woken up from her sleep, something she hadn't done for about two weeks because of the shifts the group had been taking to rest, cultivate, and keep an eye on the surroundings of the areas they were camping in.

At the same time, Rory had just finished his hours of cultivation when he opened his eyes with a smile, feeling the good feeling of cultivating in a place richer in mana than Seidel Kingdom.

'Maybe I'll be able to become a Sky Sovereign before this journey is over.' Rory thought to himself, excited about the future.

It wouldn't be a short trip. He was aware that it could take two to three years for everyone to hunt down their pentagrams, for Vicente to get his cyan essence, and for them to go after Lauren and then return home.

Given that time, Rory thought he could become a Sky Sovereign by the time he was 23 or 24.

That wouldn't be bad!

It wouldn't be the same as his friend who had managed to become a Sky Sovereign at the age of 19, but it would already place him among the greatest prodigies of the continent's current generation!

Rory wasn't interested in competing with other young people. He just wanted to become stronger to protect himself and help the Fuller family. So he was naturally satisfied with his journey so far, growing stronger and stronger.

As he left his position to join the group and eat breakfast, Casey was watching the surroundings from a tree with many thick branches near their camp.

When he saw Vicente leave his observation position, Casey returned to the side of his staff while Onyx was already on one of Vice's shoulders.

Vicente got right to the point while his group ate. "Let's continue our journey after we've finished eating. According to the Seidel family, we're only five days away from Aldoria City, so let's hurry.

We have many things to sell and others to buy in that city. After this stop, it might be a few months before we get another chance like this, so don't hesitate to buy resources in bulk." He instructed.

After Aldoria City, they would go directly to the area where they wanted to start their pentagram hunt, where the area was supposed to be favorable for people with a similar elemental affinity to Casey.

The group's companions agreed, and each of them had space rings filled with monster body parts, as well as items and resources they had collected from the belongings of some of their previous opponents.

They also had things they had collected at the order's secret altar that even Vicente didn't want to keep, so they intended to sell a lot of things once they entered the kingdom's capital.

With that, after they had finished eating, the group quickly dismantled their camp and left the area not long after, flying not far above the dirt road that lay in that area and that the Seidel family had instructed them to follow all the way to the capital of this state.
