Chapter 428
After two minutes, the barrier opened, and a middle-aged man welcomed them .
"Welcome to the city . I am the mayor here . I don't know what business you have here, but you are welcome to stay as much as you want . "
The middle-aged man was a Law God, but he remained humble in front of Yale's group .
Usually, he wouldn't go to receive someone at the barrier, but when he noticed that of the four people, he was unable to see through the strength of three of them, and the last one was a Law God who had an aura stronger than his own, he decided that they couldn't be offended .
Although the people in the city had conflicts with other people which would usually end in a full check of the identity of everyone who wanted to enter, the middle-aged man knew that Yale's group could surpass the barrier without permission and if they were angry, they could just destroy the barrier with the city included .
Thus, there was no way that the middle-aged man would do something that could offend Yale's group . Even if they went to kill someone once inside, he would just act as if he didn't know .
There weren't a single Essence God living in the city and the middle-aged man guessed that Yale, Lina, and Shiba were at least Essence Gods, so there was no way that a coward who fled from a battle impossible to win would offend that kind of people .
The middle-aged man changed his looks and his name after fleeing and managed to live a long time with a new identity because he managed to live while being low-key without offending anyone who could kill him easily .
He was the mayor because he was the strongest there, but he would give up on that position to anyone who asked for it since it wasn't like if he wanted it or something like that .
In fact, more than fearing them, the middle-aged man hoped that they would stay, the longer, the better .
After all, given that they chose to wait outside the barrier showed that they didn't have plans to destroy the city and having strong people inside the city would be very good for his own security if he managed to be close to them . As for the wellbeing of the city, he didn't care at all as long as he and his family were protected .
The only reason for him protecting the city was to protect his family, and those living in the city helped to protect them as huge numbers were better to serve as deterrence, but he really didn't care about their lives in the same way that the others wouldn't care about his life .
They were together in the city just for their own sake, and although they wouldn't harm each other, they won't step to protect someone unrelated to them just because they lived in the same city .
"We are just here to rest for a bit before continuing with our travel . The environment is better here than in the dead worlds . "
Yale told the truth, but the middle-aged didn't believe it .
After all, the world was in a place that was difficult to visit because past it there was a solar system known by most people as a forbidden place if you didn't want to die, which was the one belonging to Yale's parents .
Thus, the middle-aged man didn't think that they were going to that place and less that they came from there .
Previously, Shiba avoided stopping as much as he could while going to Yale's world and the two experts, he killed on the way didn't stop either .
Lina and Eini stopped a bit more, but they avoided worlds with people living in them, so they hadn't been in that world before .
As far as people from that world knew, no one had gone in or out of that forbidden solar system since they started to live on the planet .
That planet wasn't too old, so it didn't exist before Yale reincarnated .
It wasn't strange for a world being destroyed or created when experts were involved, so Yale didn't think too much about the creation of that world .
The middle-aged man didn't believe Yale's words, but he didn't speak because that wasn't his business . Usually, asking for the reasons for them to visit the city was a rule, but he didn't ask them and didn't want to meddle with them because the other party could kill him if he were to be a busybody .
Yale's group wanted to rest a bit while obtaining information about rumors from the universe . After all, there were people from too many places gathered there, so it wasn't impossible that they had some news about the Battle God . Even outdated information was better than nothing .
Moreover, given the place where that world was, it wasn't impossible that the Battle God visited it personally in the past .
The group followed the middle-aged man inside the city, and the barrier closed behind them . The barrier was needed to prevent the cold weather from entering into the city, so it couldn't remain open for a long time .
The city looked more like a huge town due to the rustic buildings it had . It wasn't that they didn't know how to make more luxurious buildings, but everyone living there had reasons to hide, so they preferred to be low-key .
"Here is the inn . I said inn, but it has only two rooms because it mostly serves as a bar . People living here don't choose to stay in the inn for too long because it is expensive . "
They entered into the inn and the woman in the counter was shocked after seeing new faces . There weren't a lot of chances for her to make easy money, and the newcomers were those who provided her with the most money .
"Welcome! Do you want to stay here today? If you stay at least three days and pay in advance, I can give you a discount . The standard price per night is . . . "
The woman was speaking with enthusiasm . She was just a Law Master, so she wasn't among the strongest of the city, the Law Gods, but she wasn't among the weakest either, the mortals .
"Stop . They are my guests . I will pay for everything . Don't ask any money from them . "
Seeing the serious face of the mayor, the woman understood that the group of newcomers shouldn't be offended .
With her level, she was unable to sense their strength, but she thought that the four of them were Law Gods . Although law Gods had a high standing in the city, four Law Gods couldn't win against a higher number of Law Gods, or at least the woman thought in that way .
However, she was smart, and since the mayor showed so much respect to them, she decided that she couldn't offend them either .
If the mayor hadn't offered to pay but had said that they didn't need to pay, she would have given them everything for free even if she suffered a loss, in money to avoid offending them, but since the mayor offered to pay, she was happy .
"Then, the esteemed guests don't need to pay for anything . I will gladly pass the bill to the mayor later . We have only two rooms, but there is no problem having two people in each room, and I see that you are two pairs of couples . "
Although she wouldn't reject the money from the mayor, she still wanted to give a good impression to those who even the mayor respected .
"We will go to the rooms later . We want to visit the bar first . "
The mayor and the woman nodded . After that, the mayor decided to leave because sticking with them too much might annoy the other party and he had already offered to pay for them, so he believed that they would have a good impression of him .
After bidding farewell form the mayor, the woman led Yale's group to the bar and offered the best sits for them .
They were the best because the position was very good to hear the conversations of the rest and the woman had guessed that they wanted to obtain some information from the other customers, so she arranged them in that table .
In fact, given their powerful divine senses, they could hear everything from any place of the bar without anyone discovering it, but they still appreciated the woman's intentions .
Yale, Lina, Shiba, and Eini looked at the menu at the bar while thinking about ordering something to taste the local dishes .
Moreover, the mayor already offered to pay for everything, so they didn0t show any restraint .
The currency in that world was a currency used in the whole universe by experts, Spirit Stones . However, they weren't used in Yale's world .
They served to increase the speed of creating a perfect world while trying to advance to World God, and World Gods used them while training, so they were very valuable .
Of course, the number of Spirit Stones needed to anything was enormous, so the quantities of low-class Spirit Stones used in that world didn't catch any attention
Yale didn't have any Spirit Stone, but Lina, Shiba, and Eini were extremely rich, so they didn't worry too much for money .
In fact, any of the Essence God-level weapons crafted by Yale was worthy of more than all the Spirit Stones gathered in the world before they reached it but using them to pay would be wasteful .
