Outside the city of Jagun...
After such a long time, Frelia finally arrived at the area of Jagon Capital.
It’s really not easy along the way!
Originally, he was only going to Oro City to make the final arrangements as Sean had left behind, and at the same time to resign from his position as the leader of the Wings of the Sky Wizard Organization. But who knew that he would meet Faseline on the way, who had been inviting him to Koga City to investigate the affairs of the leaders of the previous generation of wizard organizations.
Because it was related to the cause of her mentor's death, although Frelia went to Oro City first, she paid special attention to the situation in Koga City for a period of time afterwards.
After finally entering the desert, they encountered a "black sandstorm", which made the caravan afraid to move forward.
It was not until many days had passed that the merchants who came out from the depths of the oasis said that it was a miracle of the arrival of the sun god that they dared to set off.
…………
The capital of Jagun feels even more prosperous than the Basaran Empire.
The population is so large that even the entrance to the city is one or two times larger than that of Basaran!
A pearl in the desert.
I remember this city has such a name.
After entering the city, Frelia first found a tavern or somewhere to eat, and asked about the location of the imperial city. As she approached the capital, she had not had a good rest for a day and a night in order to speed up her pace, and now she felt very sleepy.
But I still found a place to eat something first...
It’s strange to say, I have seen many cities in Adak while passing through the desert, but only when I entered the capital of Jagun did I feel this very special atmosphere.
Shops all over the street were decorated with red round ornaments...
It looks pretty nice.
I just found a small fruit stall on the roadside.
"Sir, what can I help you with?" The shop owner was a middle-aged man with a long beard and a deep look in his eyes.
Most of the residents in Adak are of this style.
"Give me some fruits. By the way, I want to ask...what happened in this capital? Why are there decorations hanging in every store, and the streets are so messy." Frelia asked.
The streets are quite messy.
It looked like it was thrown around randomly, with everything in it.
"Is the little girl from out of town?"
"Well, I just arrived in the capital today," Frelia replied.
"You look like someone from the north..."
"I guess so."
This is more than once when someone mistook me for someone from northern Adak. I've gotten used to it and no longer care about it.
"Then you've come at a great time. The Sun King recently held a celebration in the capital, and several princes and princesses even took to the streets for a parade the day before yesterday. These things were left behind by the excited citizens that day. Besides, everyone who worked had a day off during these three days, so I estimate it will take a few days to clean up!" said the fruit shop owner.
"The prince and princess are here? Then is Prince Sean here?" Frelia asked.
"Prince Sean, little girl, are you interested in our returning prince? Of course he is also in the team. Even this celebration was his idea, otherwise these things would not be hung... When we turn on the lights at night, there really is a festive atmosphere." Pointing to the lanterns hanging at the door of the store.
Him.
It seems like I just like doing this kind of thing!
"Why, little girl, you know a lot about Prince Sean? He's probably the one with the most stories out of all the princes."
"Really? Didn't he just come back not long ago? Why do you have so many stories?"
Frelia also became interested in Sean's story and simply stood in front of the fruit stall to listen...
"That's not true... He's a prince who returned from another country. It's said that he was a noble in a western country, and a minor noble at that. It's said that he was suddenly promoted to the position of earl because he hooked up with a famous witch..."
As I listened to the other person telling Sean's story, it seemed more and more wrong.
I somehow became a supporting role in his romantic story, and just one of the supporting roles.
"Who did you hear these stories from? Himself."
I was so inexplicably furious I didn't even know who to vent it to. I was just a small part of the other person's story, and a mere prop at that!
"Everyone in the entire capital says so. Prince Sean's romantic ways are envied by many men."
"Haha, he is quite romantic."
Grab the fruit in your hand.
All of a sudden, the fruit with a thick shell was crushed by the woman in front of her with her bare hands.
The owner of the fruit shop was shocked...
Normally, ordinary people would have to crush this thing in pieces or use tools to pinch it, but this girl could actually crush it with her bare hands, what strength she had.
hiss~
In such a hot day, I actually shivered.
Sure enough, it is true that girls from the north are tough!
"Where is the palace?"
"Little girl, are you going to find the prince?" After asking so many things about Prince Sean, she immediately asked about the location of the palace. It seemed as if she was going to find His Royal Highness the Prince right away.
"I'm just asking, nothing else."
"On that side... keep going straight at the end of the street, and you'll see the gatehouse of the Royal Guards. Continue walking deeper into the city, near a temple hill, and you'll see it."
Judging from the other person's expression, he seems very unhappy.
When you open a business, all the customers are customers. Although you don't know why the customer suddenly loses his temper, as a businessman, of course you won't ask too many questions.
It is best to send the other party away quickly to avoid affecting your future business.
These days are festive and the most taboo thing when running a business is the appearance of troublemakers.
"Thanks."
After saying this, Frelia took the fruits she had bought and headed to the palace.
Along the way, I also asked people about the recent situation in the capital. The reason for holding this celebration is not because it is a traditional festival of Adak, but it may be in the future.
It's said that the story of the Sun God descending some time ago is true. Many citizens of the capital witnessed the Sun God's brilliance with their own eyes, and therefore celebrate the time after his arrival...
But to Frelia, this sounded more like a way for the rulers to ease the public's emotions.
Wasn't I often invited to such meetings and discussions when I was in the Bashalan Empire? Whenever something big happened somewhere, they would either hold an event or create some other "news" to divert people's attention...
The country of Jagun is almost the most powerful empire in the desert, so the surrounding countries naturally dare not act recklessly, so the simplest way is to hold celebrations.
If you think about it this way, the so-called coming of the sun god might not be that simple!
