Chapter 80: Back Home II?
Thorne City was very large, and it was impossible for someone to travel through it in a single day. Because of the regulations, the use of martial skills and various techniques was prohibited in public.
Even powerful individuals would have to respect these rules as they were enforced by none other than the House of Thorne. Of course, powerful individuals wouldn’t travel the entire length of a city on foot.
They would use various magical beasts as mounts or ride inside carriages drawn by magical beasts. Such was the grandeur of the strong.
Beasts that were known for taking lives would be subdued, only to be used as mounts. As Adrian moved swiftly through the crowded streets of Thorne city, no particular event caught his eye.
After a few hours, he finally entered the core region of the city. From afar, he could see the various shops and stalls still open and in operation. The core region of the city was much quieter than the outer regions.
Only the strong and wealthy could reside here, making law and order much more stable and enforced.
Adrian ignored all of this as he finally made his way in front of his home.
His movements came to a slow halt as he could finally see the gates of the House of Thorne. Waves of emotions hit him as he saw everything safe and sound.
He began approaching it slowly, his legs becoming shaky with each step he took. The guards at the gate saw someone approaching them suspiciously and immediately became wary.
