Chapter 572: The City of Navi

Three more days passed and it was then that the siblings were seen walking last at the gates of Ascot Village.

The event was attended by almost all the people in the village as they bid goodbye to this pair of young ones.

"Take care, Master Han Sen!"

"Take care, Miss Han Chai!"

"If you ever want to come back, we will always be here for you both!" The farewell was short since our bored gamer never looked back in the end.

He just raised his left hand to acknowledge the feelings of everyone unto them.

"Hmmm..."

"Hmmm..."

"Hmmm..."

"Aunt Fu."

"Bai Bai."

"Mo Mo."

"Sen Sen."

...

Han Chai cried as she listed all the people that she knew in the village of Ascot. She will miss them for sure but she wanted to be with her brother more than anyone else.

It did not need telling that our bored gamer had also asked what Han Chai wanted in this life changing event.

She could either choose to remain in the village or go with him to explore the world. In the end, Han Chai opted for the latter.

As long as she was with her brother then Han Chai would wish for nothing else in her life. This was how close she had been with her only family left in this world.

"Cheer up, Chai'er. It would not take long before we can come back to the village."

"I just have to do something then once i achieve that, you could even visit Ascot village everyday if you want." Our bored gamer consoled the weeping girl beside him.

"Really, brother?" Han Chai looked up and there was clear doubt on her pretty little face.

Although she could not win any beauty contest with natural gifts alone but in Clark's eyes, Han Chai was even more lovely than the multitudes of divine fragments in the sky.

"When have I ever lied to you, Chai'er?" Our good gamer raised a brow. Clark's face was also the most ordinary of all young men.

He got nothing to brag about but only the monstrous tool between his legs. As always, his partner dropped him off to the biggest buck in the mountains.

At least the heavenly treasure clay brick was consistent on this one thing.

"I believe you, brother!" Han Chai nodded and she smiled abundantly thereafter. She was looking forward to the days when she could finally return to the village of Ascot.

In her heart, that place will always be her home.

"Let's stop here for now, Chai'er." Clark said after just 1 hour of walking. He could see that his sister was already quite gasping for breath at this time.

It would have been good if the terrain was flat but alas, this journey was akin to a roller coaster ride with the many mountains they had already conquered in this short time frame alone.

With no official road from the village to the city of Navi, the trip ahead was indeed a very arduous one.

But luckily for them, there were no magical beasts around in this part of the world and so all they had to contend with were the normal creatures alone.

The two siblings continued after a 10 minute break and they slept in the dark after dinner. Clark had stocked enough supply of meat to last them 2 days.

Any more than this and the earth was enough to provide them with their needs. The evening of the first day was cold but the fire beside them helped with both heat and protection.

In the end, Clark and Han Chai slept under the blanket of countless stars overhead.

"We're almost there, Han Chai." Our bored gamer said after 3 days of slow paced travel.

Since there was really no reason to rush, both siblings stopped to take a bath in crystal clear mountain springs and make barbecues along the way.

The journey was truly an exciting and adventurous memory to remember.

"I wonder if the city of Navi is better than our Ascot Village, brother." Han Chai wondered out loud.

"Hehehe. You will see soon enough, Chai'er."

"At least it will be bigger than our village."

"That I'm sure of." Clark replied. He could not say anything else since Han Sen also had not yet visited Navi City.

This was the reason why our bored gamer visited Chief Yao in the first place because he wanted to have a detailed map on how to reach the city.

Barring that, he could also just ask his system Nancy for directions but it was always better to maintain his cover at all times.

The two of them walked on an even road for the first time since they began.

It was obvious that this was a familiar route for people since tracks of carriages marked this busy road with their wheels.

"Close your eyes, Chai'er." Our bored gamer ordered after more than 30 minutes into their walk.

There was a curious picture ahead and Clark could already get lots of clues from this simple array of disorder alone.

"What's going on, brother?" Han Chai asked and held on the arms of her brother. She craned her head to look further ahead but it only got her a sharp admonition from our avid gamer.

"Close your eyes now, Chai'er!" Clark said in a much harsher voice.

"Okay, brother." Han Chai whispered softly and had no choice in the matter but just to follow her big brother. She closed her eyes and continued to hold on to the arm of our bored gamer.

The walk became slower but Clark did not mind such a pace at all. His eyes roamed on the brutal image ahead and he could not help but sigh at the ugliness of human filth.

Blood was everywhere and the cold corpses laid with no honor whatsoever.

This massacre may have happened no more than an hour earlier but that was not the business of our very own protagonist. He and Han Chai passed the dead quietly.

"You can open your eyes now, Chai'er." Clark said once that horrible nightmare was left to rot in place.

"What was that about, brother?" Han Chai asked and even looked back to glance at the road behind them. Alas, she could not anymore see anything but a long desolate path.

"It was nothing." Clark dodged wisely and the trip went on unimpeded. Before long, the two of them could see high stone walls in a prosperous city in the distance.

"Welcome to Navi City." Clark muttered under his breath and he was fully anticipating what he could see within these great defensive walls.
