Chapter 232: Minzoi's Memorial
Lith's Dorm, Abalax Sky Island.
Lith, Ralph, and Dennis were sitting in the lounge room wearing casual outfits. They were notified by Emilia this morning at 8:00am that they would leave the dorms to go tour Espat by 2:00 pm.
It was currently 11:00 am and the three had taken care of everything there was within these three hours. They had packed their luggage, tidied their rooms, and Lith and Dennis also dropped Rena and the cow to the daycare.
All that was left to do was to have breakfast and wait for Emilia to arrive. They had ordered food and it was currently placed in various utensils in front of them on the glass table. They weren't having breakfast in the dining room but in the lounge room instead.
Lith was having a simple breakfast that consisted of bread, butter, ham, and eggs. He was having a sandwich made of these. The bread was slightly toasted and had butter, cold slices of ham and a sunny side up egg on it. The yolk was slightly runny, not too much that would make it spill, and was of the right consistency that Lith liked. He was having coffee along with this sandwich today.
Ralph on the other hand was having a few croissants that had their center filled with jam and chocolate. A few pancakes with butter and maple syrup, scrambled eggs and a latte.
Dennis on the other hand was having Nasi Goreng. It was a dish that a certain population of the Human race ate as breakfast. It basically translates to 'fried rice' and the variant he was having was the egg version.
One day old rice was tossed in a wok with egg, onion, garlic, chilli, shrimp paste, and sweet soy sauce. It was topped off a fried egg that had a runny yolk. The yolk, when blended with the rice, gave it a creamy texture and Dennis was enjoying every bite of his food. He was having Jasmine tea along with it.
The three chatted together over food and ate slowly. They were finished eating after an hour and still had two more hours to go.
The three decided to pass time by playing games together. They played a multiplayer game on their phones for two hours and stopped when they heard footsteps of Emilia coming down from her floor.
Emilia was wearing white and blue robes and as always, she looked very beautiful. She walked closer to the three and asked them, "are you ready, children?"
The three nodded their heads in agreement and Emilia waved her hand and flew away from the dorm. In a few seconds, they reached the exit of the sky island.
They were standing in front of a big black metallic gate which was the one through which they had entered the sky island twice. One for the entrance exam and the other to start their classes.
Emilia walked close to the door and pushed it open with one hand. The three followed her and they exited the sky island without any problems.
Emilia once again waved her hand and flew away from the sky island and made her way towards Lenz Tower in Espat.
.....
Lenz Tower, Espat.
Lith, Ralph, and Dennis were currently in a suite in Lenz Tower. This suite of theirs was at the uppermost floors of the tower. From here, they could see the entire Lenz City.
The suite they were in had four bedrooms with bathrooms in them, an extra common bathroom, a large and spacious living room and a kitchen.
The living room had an elevated level which had thick but extremely transparent glass walls. It had a glass table and sofas around it. There was also a swinging chair in this place.
There was a wooden staircase that led to the non-elevated part of the living room. This area had a big tv, sofas around a table, a drinks counter a few meters away and also a snack counter. It definitely seemed like a good place to hang out and relax.
Emilia, after having them enter the suite, said, "this is our place for the next three days. Though I don't think you'll get much time to spend here as I'll be busy showing you around the country of Espat. Alright, freshen up, we'll leave in half an hour."
The three freshened up and then gathered in the lounge room where Emilia was waiting for them. They were in their casual outfits, ready to tour Espat.
Emilia gave the three black circular tokens and said, "this token will be of help to you. If you're lost or stuck somewhere, just put your spiritual power in it and you'll be teleported to where I am. Wear these bands so that I can locate you easily. Alright, now that we are all ready, let's go."
Saying so, Emilia took out a purple staff from her ring and imbued her spiritual power in it. The four then vanished from their spots and the suite was now empty.
.....
Minzoi's Memorial, Lenz City.
Space fluctuated in front of a large obelisk and four figures teleported out of thin air. They were Emilia, Lith, Ralph, and Dennis.
Emilia made them turn to the obelisk and said, "this is the memorial of Minzoi, a general that contributed greatly towards the establishment of peace and order in the Neutral Continent. Send a little of your spiritual power towards the obelisk and see what happens next."
The three nodded their heads and did as they were told. Just as they did so, they felt themselves getting pulled in the obelisk. Emilia, noticing them to have gone, put her own spiritual power in the obelisk and got sucked into it.
They were now into Minzoi's Memorial obelisk and what awaited them was a nice and fun experience.
