Chapter 167: Vacation 2
The capital of Poland, home to the economic clan, pulsed with a refined opulence, where every corner exuded the aura of affluence and arcane mastery.
Mana-powered vehicles glided effortlessly along the cobblestone boulevards, their crystalline exteriors catching the amber glow of the setting sun, casting prismatic reflections onto the polished marble facades of towering edifices.
Skyscrapers of enchanted glass and rune-inscribed stone reached skyward, their spires piercing the heavens like spears of prosperity.
Intricate glyphs shimmered along their surfaces, channeling ambient mana to sustain the city’s ever-present luminescence.
The air was thick with the scent of blooming manaberry blossoms, their sweet aroma mingling with the subtle hint of ozone from nearby spell forges.
Amidst the throng of elegantly dressed citizens, a man in his mid-thirties navigated the bustling avenues with practiced ease.
Clad in a tailored ensemble of muted hues, his attire whispered of wealth without overt proclamation.
His features were deliberately unremarkable, a visage sculpted by mana to blend seamlessly into any crowd—a perfect guise for one who sought anonymity.
Beneath this crafted façade was Alex. The artifact on his finger was doing its work, maintaining the illusion that shielded his true identity.
Alex had been on the other side of the wall for several days.
While exiting that territory was relatively simple, many youths from various clans and adventurers from the guild ventured into the beast domain either to gather resources or to train—entering back was a different matter.
