Gliding through the air, Seth was given a bird's eye view and could clearly see the situation of Monwac City.
The city had stone walls up to a kilometer tall surrounding it, with about three kilometers around the city devoid of trees, all of them having been cut off or perhaps destroyed during battles.
The land just outside of Monwoc city was filled with scorched ground, deep holes, and broken weapons strewn around, all this an indication that the city was not at a very peaceful time and was frequently facing attacks from enemies.
They were sentries placed all atop the city walls and Seth could see huge crossbows, cannons, and mortars at various stations atop the wall.
ραпdα nᴏνɐ| сom As the bird flew over the city wall and into the city, Seth could feel his body pass through a thin film of energy, that probably being the defensive barrier that covered the city, and he couldn't help but attribute the reason for his seamless passage through the barrier to the beast he was riding.
But Seth had to say that the barrier's strength surpassed any he had ever felt, sure Seth hadn't been confronted with Earth's top-level barriers, but he was more than sure that Earth had no barrier as powerful as the one he had just gone through, and if they did, he doubted it could be used on such a large scale.
"How did you control Palim," Edwin said, standing ahead of Seth on the back of the bird and looking straight ahead with a tight expression.
Edwin had initially refused to accompany the invader, thinking he wanted his help to get into the city, but when the man had moved forward and began mounting Palim, Edwin had changed his mind and followed the invader onto the back of Palim, asking him questions on his reason for entering the city, but the man gave no reply, no matter what question he asked until now.
"Oh her," Seth said, realizing he was referring to his mount and that palim was her name.
"Nothing much actually," Seth said," I can speak to beasts, that's all".
"You can control them just by speaking with them?" Edwin asked, his eyes narrowing as he sought clarification.
"Of course not, if I could do that, I'll have had an army of beasts by now" Seth with a laugh, a dreamy expression appearing on his face.
"All I did was tell palim that if she didn't obey me, I would kill you, and sensing my strength, she chose to save your life" Seth finished, his words having Edwin's face twist in confusion as he turned to look at palim.
"Is this true?" Edwin asked, and palim let out a low scream in reply.
Of course what Seth had just told Edwin was total bullshit, but he saw no reason to destroy Palim's life considering the kind of thoughts that would begin going through Edwin's mind if he thought Palim could be easily used against him by people.
"But she tried to kill me earlier" Edwin pointed out, looking at Seth with a narrowed gaze, probably already suspecting that he was lying.
"Considering I was going to cut off your legs had it not done so, I'll say you should be grateful to her," Seth said with a yawn, his eyes lazily glancing over Edwin.
"What is your name" Seth suddenly asked, his words surprising Edwin.
"Allof Edwin" he replied" and what is yours?"
"Evary Seth".
"All right Edwin, I'll go play around and see how great Monwac city is, see you later, "Seth said as his figure disappeared from the back of palim, Edwin realized that Seth had jumped into the city, but unfortunately he was unable to catch a whiff of him no matter how much he swept around his soul sense.
...….
Muddy streets filled with sick people, piss and shit everywhere, and a random fight breaking out, these were things common in medieval times, and what Seth had expected to see when he entered the city, but other than the noise from the busy streets, everything else was different.
The roads, while not tiled, were at least somewhat tarred, the streets were clean with a not polluted air, and if it wasn't for the gowns and satchels being adorned by the people around him, Seth would have considered revoking his idea that this was a medieval era.
At the moment, Seth was walking through a street, with low single-window houses on both sides with little children running around playing.
While Seth acknowledged that he was in the interior parts of the city he still considered it weird the jubilant atmosphere that prevailed here despite the war going on outside.
With each step Seth took, a new eye was added to the ones already watching him, remaining fixated on him as the children and woman were retracted to their homes and the men came out, some standing by their door while others walked down and moved towards him.
Seeing their actions Seth wasn't all that surprised, his current clothing more than stood out, the fabrication and the texture of his cloth being very different from the loincloth that the people wore.
"Frohe Ostern euch allen, " one of the men said, Seth not understanding a single word the man uttered and blankly staring at him.
The man shouted his words at Seth several times, the other men around bringing their forks and cutlasses, but it seemed one of them realized Seth's predicament as he moved forward and spoke to him, and even though his grammar wasn't good, Seth still understood his words,
"What are you doing here".
"Oh," Seth said," am just curious about what your world is like, and checking if I'll be able to get a nice fuck".
Seth's words seemed to have fallen on deaf ears as the men around him including the one who just barely managed to speak to him all looked at him in confusion, likely not understanding a thing he said.
One of them immediately shouted something some seconds later, and looks of fear began appearing on the faces of the surrounding men and they began quickly retreating into their houses, some not caring to be discreet as they ran back.
Before long, Seth was left all alone in an empty street, every door and window his eye could see closed.
"Perhaps they figured out am an invader," Seth thought as he continued his stroll, but it wasn't even up to a minute later that he heard the sound of a bell began ringing, throughout the city and bringing about the sounds of distant running.
