《So I guess this is a Video Game World.》Chapter 12: The other country, Kemna.
Advertisement
We were on the road for Kemna since 3 days now. Nobody dared to attack us. Nell was reputed to be one of the most powerful kings and queens. And in this country, nobody besides Wrath could face her. So even if the reward to kill the Queen was great. Nobody was insane enough to try.
Even though no bandits dared, monsters, them, didn't know who was the Queen. Or even the concept. For them, if it's alive, it must be exterminated. They don't care about levels.
So...Aevy took care of them. It was a piece of cake for him.almost no monsters could face him either.
Annnd. Since we are in a party.The XP was shared between the three of us. So...Free leveling! Woo! I even asked if we could stop to a dungeon so they can powerlevel me. But Nell really insisted to go to Kemna first. I didn't dared to talk back. She was the Queen after all. And i also wanted to see this country. So I only gained Xp from the weak mobs who crossed our paths. Still gained a total of 3 levels from the travel who lasted 2 weeks, and that was boring as fuck.
Lastly, we arrived to the frontier of the country, who was managed by some random guy that nobody cared about. Thanks to the queen being here we didn't payed anything for crossing the frontier. She have a lot of advantages!
After one another really boring week, we finally arrived to the city, with a wall which was surrounding the city, FINALLY! I was so bored I swear we could have arrived faster if we didn't used a chariot. One of the guard interpelled us with a shotgun ready to fire.
-Hey you! You shall not pass you monsters! Only humans are allowed here!

-Damnit Philip, there is the Queen of Angeluna with them!
-Wait really? That's just some monster...
-One of the most powerful monsters and Queen! If we attack her, it means war!And who want war?
-...Yeah ok. We're not gonna attack them.
-We can hear you you know.
I just said it like that.
-Yeah yeah. But why will you pass? I can understand for her but not you!
-I'm with her. So that would probably upset her.
-Agh! Fine! Fine! Just enter all and leave us alone...Damn it.
So we entered the city without so much problem. Good!
When we entered the city, we could already see the difference in atmosphere. It really looked like a modern city. Buildings everywhere, even skyscrappers! This is awesome! I can even see cars! Nell was really impressed and me I was excited. Aevy has already visited this city so he was not impressed or anything.
-Ok. What do we do now?
-GAMES!
I sayed it immediatly. After all these weeks, I NEED to play the games they have.Mostly their RPGs. So buying a portable console and some games...Wait I need some battery to play games...Maybe a solar battery? I asked to Aevy for answers
-Oh, they are powered by magics.It's this simple.But if you want one, it's dead.They don't sell them to tourists.And I don't even talk about monsters.
...Oh.Really? So shut up, it's magic, then.Always magic.Magic is a Deus Ex Machina for everything anyways. Though i was really sad that they can't sell them to tourists. Whatever reason they don't sell them is stupid. I mean, the money you would gain with this would be astronomic! It's an economical suicide! They would be a litteral juggernaut in finance!
So we visited the city and did go to an arcade. The owner didn't seems really confortable with two monsters, one being a queen. I looked at the price to play some random arcade games...1 SILVER for only a party?! That's awfully expensive! Ok stop! Comparison time. A modest house cost 5 gold, so that's means if you spent 500 silvers on it, you spent an entire house playing games! That's this costly!

But...I was the only one who cared about money. Between a Queen and some level 142 guy. I was the only one poor here...Sigh. I still played like 10 parties cause the game was really nice. But I think that's it. I stopped before I was too much in it.
After all of this, we did go to some supermarket. Here we could buy something finally. But still not if it was something too...Technologic. Like pills or a vacuum cleaner for exemple.
Honestly...I was hyped for nothing for this city. Since we can't even buy what I wanted, It's sad. Really sad. At least Nell was quite enjoying this. Aevy, him, didn't seemed to really care. After all of this, Nell declared:
-So, I didn't come here only to enjoy all of this. But to see if we can negociate some of their technologie for Angeluna and maybe others country. So we can all benefit their technology.
-Seems complicated. Do you have a plan?
Aevy is right. If this country is this closed.This won't be easy.
-First. I have you two. You are part of my kingdom after all. And you seems to know a lot about how all of this works. Even if i don't know how you could since this is so protected.
-Heh.You're not wrong. I indeed know a few things and Vak' here must also know some things.
-Indeed.
-So, let's go. We have some World changing things to do.
Nell is more intelligent than what she seems. Really. Well. I hope this plan will works.

Millennial Mage (A Slice of Life, Progression Fantasy)
The world is wild, untamed. Humanity thrives, but only in isolated, well defended cities, ever shrinking as the wilds slowly reclaim all that was taken. The most capable magic users are raised up as Mages to serve mankind, further their cause, and defend them over the course of millennia. Tala is freshly graduated from the magic academy and determined to make her own way in the world. She hopes to pay off her massive debts, quickly, but still plans on living each and every day to the fullest. Too bad the Academy left some glaring holes in her practical education.
