Edgar's lips twitched, hearing Orion's words, "Just wait and see how magnificent the capital is." He quickly wrapped up the conversation.
'He didn't deny it, heh.' Orion thought to himself in amusement.
"We also have quite a few acquaintances over in the capital," Selene added. "They can help you out if you need anything."
Orion looked at her. "Who are they?"
"Oh, you will know once you meet them." Eldric quickly interrupted Selene and said with a mysterious smile.
Orion inwardly chuckled, looking at him, "Very well then." They continued chatting while eating food.
Soon after, they set off again. Orion couldn't wait to see how the capital would look. Edgar had really hyped him up for this.

The group traveled for the entire day, traversing the silent terrain towards a particular place near the capital. This was the territory of a duke—House Blackwell.
Orion saw quite a few Shadow Element users along the way, and some local people buying stuff for occult arts.
