I, Jack Adams, looked at the city in front of the group and let us say, in simple terms, underwhelming. Well, I guess anyone who lives in here does not live in a big city, for example, New York, or Berlin will say. There is no line at the gate, well a small one, but we bypassed it because Anna is a noble. She comes from the three great noble families in the City of Leka. The three noble families of this city are the Campbell, the Johnson, and the Smiths. Anna belongs to the Campbell Family.

'Hmm, I should get her to join me. She might be an interesting addition. I shall teach her a few selections of healing spells. The healing one and I give a yes to new companions', I thought.

"Hey, Anna. You don't mind me saying it, right? I acknowledge you were a noble, but I tried guessing if you were from a great one. Well, of this place. I was right.", I asked, wondering at her back-story.

"Ah, I am very sorry but it was nice speaking with you.", Anna said.

Here! A chance to get a peek in her personality. I asked, "Ain't you nice to everyone? I can assure myself you are famous in this city."

"The citizens are nice but not everyone here can be agreeable persons. I, myself, can get angry if pushed to the edge. There this specific person I do not meet.", she said as she looked around the city. Her eyes watching the citizens going in their daily life.

From the short conversation, I concluded that Anna will make a great comrade of travel. First, her personality is decent. Second, she cares for the people of this city. Third, she is a charming girl and nobody can say no to a charming girl as a comrade. The other conclusion made me delve into my thoughts.

'The last sentence tells me she doesn't want to meet a specific person. It is a noble, and a spoiled one', I said in my thoughts, thinking of the countless opportunities and the new possibilities it might stem from it.

The group and I walked until we came in front of a large manor which belongs to the Campbell Family. Facing Anna and thanked her and said, "This place is huge! Oh, thank you for your company. I will stay in this city for a few weeks. Let's hope we can meet later."

"Yes, I hope we meet again, Mr. Adams.", Anna said and gave me a small smile.

Separating from Anna and her group, I roamed the city and look at my surroundings. Enjoying a talk with Anna was fun, but I didn't have time to explore the whole city because I was talking with her.

'Damn, I should have asked her for a map of this city.', I thought as I looked around for something interesting. There wasn't much to see and Anna was not kidding with the poor situation this country is in.

If Anna manor looks like that as a great noble of this city, what will it be for the other ones? I wasn't paying attention to the road so I wandered off the city and eventually got lost. I decided to ask for directions for I had a little problem. I was a very absent-minded person and I admit that I know about it but could not be done for quickly.

I quickly ask for directions to an inn but it was not very easy thanks to my looks. I have always been a polite and patient person but even I get frustrated. Having a solution is not easy and thinking of one, I found a good solution. I cast both [Invisibility] and [Hermes Blessing], walked to the Campbell's manor and walked past it.

I used my mental map to scan the whole place; finding Anna I went to talk to her and consult her for some books. Walking all the way there, I was thinking of how to approach her but then thought otherwise. Now, I am standing in front of her door and enter in.
