Sam and his group change clothes and especially Sam and Watt, they take off the coats that catch their attention and put on some ordinary clothes.
Yanwu and Sky went to do the occasional reconnaissance and they traveled carefully on foot for three days before they found the right path.
They randomly chose a direction and started flying over it and after three days, they saw their first City.
On the way, they avoid possible meetings they can have with other travelers.
Sam did not want any information to be leaked as there was a possibility that the Emperor had already taken action to deal with it, and he did not throw his other companions into the dimension because there was a chance that they would do so stuck inside the dimension in the future, so he let them have the freedom to rule for a while.
When City was first seen by their eyes, Sam and the others landed nearby and he threw everyone into the dimension with him and let the shadow mouse follow the trade caravan and enter the City.
Now, all he had to do was figure out where they really were and where they should go from here.
They entered the slums and hid deep inside some abandoned buildings.
Sam got out of there and went into town.
The slums are a place where many new people enter every day and they don't care about new faces appearing.
Moreover, Sam put on a robe around him and pretended to be old and weak which made his presence negligible.
After that, he went to work with some shadow rats.
He sent a shadow rat to infiltrate the city guard station and he went towards an inn where the most human traffic occurred.
He bribed a waiter and got all the information he needed.
Right now, he was in a city called red city and this was part of the North Star Dukedom.
It was not too close to the northern border of the empire, nor was it close to the North Star city. Precisely in the middle of the Dukedom and this city is one of the cities that nothing special.
The city is named after the ruling family of the City who was honored with the city when the empire was founded.
After getting some info, Sam returns to the slums and carefully sneaks into an alley before disappearing into the dimension before reappearing in the ruins of the old building they hid.
He told them everything he learned and asked them to think about what they thought was the best solution to move on. While there was a high chance Sam would make the final decision, there was no reason not to listen to any advice.
At night the shadow rats return and from what they learn at the city guard station there is no official notice among the citizens claiming that Sam is a criminal fugitive by the empire.
Instead, the rats found that some upper echelons of city guards and city officials were discussing someone. Although the mice failed to see Sam's image in their position, there was some info that allowed them to talk about Sam and that about his profession.
The officials talked about Sam's various professions and they had been instructed by their upper echelons that they should supervise the three professional towers that were part of Sam and they also noted that they should give know them if any young geniuses appear inside the tower.
Sam was almost sure that this was about him.
The Emperor had already broken all courtesy with Sam and he had no choice but to seek and capture him. Because once Sam runs away and he can't get it, then with Sam's potential and talent, he'll run out.
But he cannot paint Sam as a deadly villain before he knows his true position. He had no proof and everyone knew that Sam had a deep feud with all the great and public would think that the emperor was very tyrannical and in the imperial capital and the three professional towers of the place Sam has the status of having to side with Sam because of their title.
The emperor knew that he did not have a good reputation in the empire but at least he did not want to gain a bad reputation that the enemy empire could take advantage of.
If Sam really approached them, they had no other choice but to accept and protect him from imperial charges, that was one of the reasons the Emperor wanted to kill Sam instantly within the palace grounds.
From what he knew Sam was a cautious person and planned everything carefully, he said, that was the reason he carried out the sneak attack but he did not expect Sam to be cautious and prepare for this scenario as well.
Sam and the other three sat together inside the building and started discussing and now they have two options in front of them.
The first is to cross the northern border and escape to the neighboring kingdom and the second is to play this game of cat and mouse with the emperor.
They are in a dilemma because Sam has not been willing to cross the border at least not yet.
Because he makes a contract with Jack to tear down the Blackwater lair and find his father's killer and his pride doesn't let him accept this.
So that night the group stayed there and the next day Sam made a decision.
They are not leaving the border.
First, they will travel to the southern star Dukedom and check out Sam Park. If Sam's guess is correct, unless the emperor is willing to answer to the public and prove that his actions are not from a personal grudge, he will not openly take over the park and also fire the employees abruptly.
At least, this was what Sam would have done if he were the emperor's shoe, so to gain a better understanding of the emperor's thought process, he said, Sam had to look to that place and come to a conclusion and besides that there were other big reasons and more. an important reason for him to visit the place and that was to leave a message and respect the words he left behind in the past.
After that, he would think about what to do next.
So, their journey begins.
First thing in the morning they leave the place with the help of shadow rats and on their way, they steal a map that leads south.
The map has details up to the imperial capital and Sam can get south from there.
From the map and the approximate distance, it would take about a month on the shortest route that would lead to the imperial capital, and this time Watt was responsible for bringing it there.
But before that, Sam had to give Watt a little change. He made his hair turn silvery white like an old man and added some wrinkles on his face and hands and others exposed his skin. He taught her how to walk like an old man and how to bend like an old man.
Why Watt?
That's because Watt is the only person to have been out of the limelight for over a month. He was pushed into the dimension even before their journey to the thunder god temple. So, his presence was completely ignored and it would happen before the emperor concentrated on him.
Sam was only cautious, as most likely a search was being conducted on the southern star continent right now, as the emperor had no idea that Sam himself had no control over the direction the scroll was taking him.
So, he would assume that Sam went to the south star where he had the most influence and was a very profitable business.
And his guess was almost right, but the only thing was that Sam would just go there a little later than he thought.
Watt now travels with Falck at medium speed and he dresses like an old man. His steps were as if he had all the time in this world.
Meanwhile, inside the dimension, Sam sat down with the other two while discussing their future steps.
Jack has a little question for Sam and that's it.
“What is your final destination of this journey, we can escape to the neighboring kingdom and we can take revenge slowly? We are not on par with the might of the emperor and besides, there are generals, Marshall, countless Nascent (Nascent) cultivators including the dukes, as well as a huge army under their control. And even worse, they have the manpower and resources to make their jobs easier. We're really on a different level. We are against the whole empire."
Sam smiled and said.
"What you say is true, let's forget about the emperor level for now, since the level of strength is completely out of our reach, no matter if it's newborn or higher, no matter if it's new, they can all kill us in an instant.
As for what you said about the rest, yes, we are indeed against the entire empire and it is true that they have a lot of resources in their control.
And our ultimate goal is also related to that.
Why do you think the emperor has so much pride that he just attacked me without a second thought, even though all I did was retaliate against his son?"
Jack and Philip looked at each other and the latter replied.
"Because he's the emperor?" He didn't sound so sure, because, even he thought that it was a bit stupid. Just because he's an emperor doesn't mean he can do whatever he wants, right?
But Sam's answer proves he's right.
"To be exact, he behaved like this just because he was an emperor. And our goal is to pull that title out of his head and reduce the weight of his head so he can look down occasionally and let us see how we're going to react. "
His voice was so relaxed that Jack and Philip even felt they had not heard anything clearly.
