Chapter 235: Realm Of Water (3)

"The realm of water huh. Kazemi always used to brag about how her realm had the most balanced temperature which was neither too hot nor too cold. Even though I always found it annoying, it's the truth." Mariel commented as the four of them landed on the ground.

"Now that we are here, the question is whether we are on one of the two continents which we saw from the sky or did we enter this place through the special entrance for the realm of water?" Levina asked as Kai shook his head.

"To be honest, I wasn't thinking about any place in particular while teleporting us. So instead, we just appeared on the last place I visited don the spirit realm. Let's go back and I will try teleporting to one of the continents this time." Kai replied as the four of them appeared above the real again.

This time he focused on the continent on the right as they vanished again. But they still appeared in the same place.

"I guess I was unconsciously thinking about the continent on the right side." He sighed as the other three girls narrowed their eyes.

"This means that for some reason, our special realms have instead become continents which are now visible on the spirit realm and have made it an opaque realm." Levina said slowly as Kai nodded.

"Since we are on this realm, why don't we explore this place to gather some information? But first of all, let's change our clothes." He said out loud as his clothes shimmered before they vanished and new clothes appeared in their place He was now wearing plain purple robes as he looked at the three girls with raised eyebrows.

"Any special preferences?" He asked as they shook their heads. Kai smiled at this as he waved his hands in their direction and their clothes changed.

Mariel was now wearing flaming orange robes while Hela was wearing pure black robes. Levina on the other hand was wearing pure white robes as the three girls sighed.

"Well, where are we going now?" Mariel asked as Kai pointed in the north.

"A few kilometers away from here was Kazemi's palace. The capital was also beside the palace but I don't know if it's still the same after these many years." Kai replied as they crossed the lake and continued flying in the north direction.

For the first two hours, they flew inside a forest. But after that, they saw the end of the forest as they exited it to see themselves standing on top of a hill. 

Below them was a city that was spread out in a few kilometers. Gazing at the northernmost corner of the city, they saw a work-in-progress structure which was definitely a palace. It looked as though someone had destroyed Kazemi's previous palace and were now building a new one.

"Do you think that someone destroyed our palaces too?" Mariel asked while cracking her knuckles. Kai decided to ignore her question as he was checking some things about the city.

"This is not the realm of water." He suddenly declared as the others looked confused.

"This city looks the same as the city we used to come to when we were visiting Kazemi. So what do you mean it's not the realm of water?" Levina asked in confusion as Kai shook his head.

"You might think that it's the city but this is actually an exact replica that someone probably created using a map or from their memory. Most of the things are right but the position of the buildings is not correct. Perhaps I might be wrong and the city had been remodeled since my last visit which was ages ago." Kai replied as with a shrug since there was a chance that he was just overthinking about this.

"Then how will you explain the lake from earlier? According to what you said, the lake had the same formations as the ones you remembered." Levina asked as Kai shook his head.

"As I said, I might be wrong. Let's enter the city through its main entrance and gather some information." Kai replied as all of them moved towards the gates of the city. 

"Ah, I almost forgot about that. Please wait for a second." After reaching halfway to the entrance, Kai suddenly stopped as he closed his eyes for a few seconds.

With a splash of water, a woman with ocean blue hair and eyes appeared beside him as she smiled.

"Hello, Kai." Misty greeted Kai while smiling as she turned towards the three other girls and greeted them one by one.

Misty was the water spirit out of the five spirits that followed Kai. It had been a while since he had called them out since he hadn't really needed their help.

"Misty, can you sense the spiritual energy here and confirm where we are?" Kai asked as Misty nodded and closed her eyes.

Spirits are connected to the special realm on which they are born and they could use that connection to tell where they are on the realm which they are born on. Mariel, Hela, and Levina were also connected to their lands but since they were currently on another special realm, their connection was useless at the moment.

"We are on the spirit realm but I can't tell you the exact place." Misty said as she opened her eyes and shook her head. 

Kai just smiled and patted her head as he looked at the three girls with an I-told-you expression. Mariel and Levina rolled their eyes as Hela sighed.

"Well know that we know that we aren't on the realm of water, or atheist not the original one, we should start gathering information about this place. Would you like to accompany us Misty?" Kai asked as she nodded.

They then started walking towards the entrance. Instead of armor-clad guards, two women with dark blue hair and jade green eyes stood at the gates with bored expressions. But their bodies suddenly went alert as Kai and the group reached near the gates.

"Demon!" One of them suddenly snarled as she stared at Kai with hatred.

'How did she know that?' Kai wondered with narrowed eyes as the girl suddenly created a ball of water and launched it at Kai as it suddenly turned into a fierce cyclone which was sheading towards the group at a fast pace.
