《Xenos The Abysmal》City
Advertisement
Calling for Suha, who suddenly appeared in her fairy form, in front of him. After seeing him, she flew towards his hand and hugged his index finger.
Seeing this, Xenos looked at her and patted her with a single finger using his other hand.
With her smiling, he said.
"Thanks for the hug, Suha."
He then stops his head pats.
"All right then, that's enough. Suha, can you fly up and find the nearest road?"
Nodding her head, she flew up. After a few moments, she came down and pointed to a direction which he started walking towards. While heading to the road he had a feeling that he should go back to the cave for the innocent people that were killed, to bury the bodies. He shakes his head as he didn't have any obligation to do that, it was useless kindness, and there was no need for that.
Xenos continued walking, he had gotten rid of the blood-soaked cloth, replacing it with a fresh one. He kept his previous disguise as well, just in case, with his eyes black once again.
"Sia, what happened to my mission of saving the people captured by the bandits? I failed it."
"Host failed missions will disappear from your list."
"Are there no consequences for failing?"
"Well, yes, there is. When you fail missions, the frequency of missions being given to you decreases and the difficulty for one increasing."
"Well, that's not too bad at least."
Now back on the road, he heads to the city, as he sees the walls of the city a few miles away. There happened to be a line of carriages, wagons, and people waiting to go in. Walking towards the city, a few carriages passed by him, one that he noticed the most was this merchant-like carriage. Followed by this carriage was another one with steel bars to keep people within. Inside this carriage were slaves.

Looking at the carriage filled with slaves were girls, or what looked like girls of different races. He felt weird, but it seemed much better than his first encounter with slaves. As his first encounter, they ended up being abused by bandits and killed by him. The ones on the carriage looked sad as if they were wronged. Some looked at him with distress, seeking help, but he would do nothing. It isn't his place to help others, there was no benefit, he is no hero.
Eyeing the girls within, he saw that some looked human, but he sensed that their blood was not human as he compared it to Gwen's, who was human. Looking at them he identified their features, one had a single large eye, another had multiple arms, two girls supposedly siblings who were hugging each other had a lower body of a snake. There were many other non-humans with easily identifiable features.
What piqued him the most was a girl in the corner who appeared beautiful with a slender figure. She had long blonde hair that reaches her feet and is curly at the end. Her skin, pale, and her eyes are purple with vertical pupils. She had on a white tunic, seemingly innocent but filled with worry about what would happen for her. Although human in appearance, her blood signified something else, he was not sure.
Besides that, they seemed like they weren't living that bad, at least they still had their clothes. Some had on tunics, skirts, aprons, even embroidered dresses. He wondered what happened, for them to become slaves.
From the front of the carriage, a bald man from inside his carriage sees him staring at the slaves suddenly asks him from inside his carriage.
"Hello child, do you wish to purchase a slave?"

"Possibly in the future, currently I do not." He replied.
"Are you sure they will do anything you desire?"
"Quite sure."
Seeing that Xenos would not be going to budge anytime soon, he gave up, not before telling him.
"If you ever need a slave, come to Asura Trading Hall in the city, if you like any of the slaves I have."
"Yes I will, thank you," Xenos said in a monotone like voice.
With that, the conversation ended with the slave carriage going faster than him walking.
Nearing the city walls, he saw many guards on top of the walls, the same as the entrance. He was not going to enter the city publicly, as he did not want attention. Using Sonar, he scanned for people on top of the wall to find a blind spot. After finding one, he teleported there, then found an empty alley in the city and quickly teleported once more.
Now within the city, his objective had been accomplished in reaching the city. All that was left is to explore.
Leaving the alleyway, he looked around. There were lots of humans walking around enjoying life. He saw food vendors, clothing stores, jewelry stores, equipment shops, and more. This place was more relaxed than he thought, similar to malls back on Earth.
Going around he purchased some food that tasted delicious, not as refined as his own or the ones in the castle, but different. Continuing on his way, he went into some equipment shops and blacksmith stores to view. The equipment there seemed weak with lots of impurities, only a very few had decent weapons. He soon passed by a cathedral which wasn't too large nor small.
Staring at the building from the entrance, he soon heard someone say.
"Excuse me."
Looking around, he sees a group of young girls wearing dark teal nun outfits with light blue accents, a white veil over their heads with light blue accents, and brown boots with black straps in an X-shaped pattern. They all wore a silver cross necklace around the neck.
Observing them, he shifts himself to clear the way and says.
"I apologize for blocking these beautiful sisters, I was merely looking at the church and how impressive the building is."
"If you like the outside so much, you should enter and look at the inside too. The church is an amazing place." One girl said.
"That would be wonderful," He said as they started walking towards the church.
