Six days just passed.
As planned, Arthur and three other old men left three days ago. This time, due to Arthur's request, they also brought Nanami along with them. The other three old men also brought their disciples to gain experience.
Masanobu brought Natsumi along with him. Kijimura carried a young man with a mediocre face, but seemed excited with him. While the last old man brought a shy-looking girl with him.
Obviously, since Arthur was carrying ‘beban’, the three old men were also doing the same. After all, this trip could also be an exercise for the four juniors. Very useful in their growth.
Based on cultivation level, those four juniors were still at the bronze level. The excited young man and the shy girl were at the 5-star bronze level, Natsumi was still at the 2-star bronze level, whereas Nanami .. had now broken through the 4-star bronze level.
Natsumi is jealous of Nanami. Although Nanami was a few months older than him, but the girl started serious training only about two weeks earlier than him. However, the cultivation speed of the girl was extremely fast. As for the disciples of the other two men, he didn't really care because they got to such a level after seven or eight months of cultivation. Although it was considered quite good, but it could not fall into the genius category.
Natsumi felt that the teacher appointed by her grandfather was not good. He believed that after taking the Purple Dawn Pill, he would not lose in terms of talent when compared to Nanami. Even the girl was now asking her grandfather to invite Arthur as her teacher. However, until now there was still no definitive answer from his grandfather.
This obviously makes Natsumi, the princess of the Fuji Kingdom who has always been pampered since childhood feel upset!
In these three days, they traveled towards the border. In addition to taking breaks to eat, sleep, or letting juniors train for a while, they used the time to rush to the location. While the way they went was not at all using horse carriages or ships, but in a fairly conspicuous manner of cultivators.
Yes ... riding the flying sword.
As a gold-level cultivator, Arthur could certainly do it. However, he is reluctant to do so because he prefers to travel slowly to enjoy the process. But this time it was different because they were in quite a hurry.
The flying sword itself was made from some special materials. It can stretch and shrink, the size when carried is usually only the size of a little finger, but it can be the size of a surfboard and some are even the size of a small ship. The sword itself was not used for fighting and was only done as a means of transportation. Similar to a witch's broom in fairy tales.
As someone from another world, of course Arthur had questioned many things. For example, why they did not make a ship that could be reduced and raised, why they did not choose the form of a surfboard that looks more concise and inconspicuous, as well as some other questions. But in the end the young man could only think that it was a trend, or indeed the taste of the people in this world.
In addition to enjoying the atmosphere, there is another reason why Arthur almost never uses a flying sword. Yes ... because he felt that kind of thing was embarrassing.
When they were at the gold level, they could have flown directly. Although more draining, Arthur also prefers it. Other than being able to move more freely, he felt that it did not look embarrassing. Yet now he could only swallow the shame of having to take Nanami with him.
Arthur could have left Nanami, but that meant he had to stay longer in the Fuji Kingdom because he had to fulfill the promise of 100 days of teaching. Therefore, the young man chose to bring Nanami along with him.
“We'll be on location soon.”
Masanobu's voice sounded. In contrast to the few people standing with a serious expression on his face, Arthur sat cross-legged on a speedboat-sized sword quietly. If not for maintaining a courteous and virtuous image, he really wanted to yawn and complain.
What the Fuji Kingdom is doing is common in this world. The higher-ups did not care at all about the lives of the workers. In their eyes there was only money, money, and money. Busy raising their stomachs without caring about the lives of the people below.
“We get to.”
Masanobu's voice was heard again.
Just as they were about to land, many miners were looking up at the sky with amazed expressions on their faces. Arthur glanced at the six others who seemed quite complacent about feeling taller. Compared to them, he felt somewhat displeased as he felt like a rare primate that was the subject of a spectacle.
Arthur stands. Behind him, Nanami also did the same. The girl seemed to feel the displeasure of her teacher. Merely, he was at a loss as to which part made the man feel unhappy.
“Down.”
Arthur said relax. The flying sword floated at a height of less than three meters, he and Nanami jumped down. After that, the young man waved his hand. The black sword instantly shrank and flew into his hand. He then kept the sword with a calm expression.
Just like him, three other old men along with their disciples had descended. Their arrival was immediately welcomed by the figures of many soldiers and also the mine administrators. Those people greeted them with great respect, even as they continued to curry favor with Masanobu and say unnecessary things. Their actions made Arthur frown. Really wanted to slap them to silence.
After arriving, they all then went towards the office. Of course, they would not go straight to the mine. In addition to needing to get the latest and more detailed information, Masanobu asked three people including Arthur to rest so that they could fight in optimal conditions.
While the three old men decided to take a break, Arthur chose to take a walk. Perhaps out of curiosity about the surroundings, Nanami also decided to follow him.
Getting out of the office, Arthur took a leisurely walk. Due to being a special guest, the guards on duty did not stop him at all. The young man took a walk to watch the surroundings.
Meanwhile, Nanami seems to be more interested in the miners. Looking at their appearance, he couldn't help but ask.
“Teacher, they ..”
“Do you think everyone lives a good life? Mine workers like them have different lives than you. Working too hard, eating less, earning less. Even some of them were forcibly employed.”
Arthur did not explain further. He glanced towards Nanami who seemed pensive. In addition to not delaying the practice, there was another reason the young man invited Nanami to come with him. Yes ...
Let the girl gain experience and see what the world really looks like.
