Frank glanced at the beautiful capital of Westwind, as several large buildings greeted his sight.

The sight was befitting of the capital of a nation where magic reigns, as there were magical artifacts everywhere.

Such a thing greatly impacted Frank, who had thought that the capital would not be as advanced.

The buildings were tall and seemed modern in some cases.

The floor was beautifully paved, the streets were even clean.

There were shops of all kinds, even candy shops, pastry shops, equipment shops, alchemy shops, material shops, cultivation item recipes shops, and more.

Each shop was decorated with their own colors and the people of this city seemed rather of high class, there was almost no person that was not well dressed, and many even used magical artifacts as if they were daily life things.

He even saw many golems working as guards for shops or large buildings, or even acting as bodyguards for rich aristocrats that had decided to go on a walk or somewhere without their carriage.

Such golems were not the same he was able to create by infusing dirt or other materials with souls, but these golems were crafted piece by piece, infusing what they called magic core batteries in each limb, and then connecting each magic core battery with a magic core heart.

They looked like robotic creatures, but also had a hint of cyberpunk feeling to them, some even enhanced their movements with special magic rune stones enhanced with attributes, and Frank saw some that were rather strong, even comparable to Rank 1 Magus in some cases.

"Hmph, everything seems to calm in here compared to the outside… Just two weeks ago we fought against a large army of Miasma Spawns, but these people probably didn't even realize the favor we did to them…" said Cathyl.

Two weeks ago while Frank and his group were still inside of Gwendolyn's house and preparing to go to the capital, a large tremor emerged where Acacia Town was formerly, as another crack in the ground appeared, and around twenty small creatures made of miasma with the strength of Rank 3 to 4 Monsters emerged, which were lesser versions of Abyssal Horrors, which were originally Abyssal Horrors that split into many other pieces.

These creatures were strong, but not much of a threat to Frank and his party, which quickly disposed of them and used their corpses as cultivation Materials for Frank, he had also eaten a bunch of them, and their flavor was bitter.

Of course, something that for them was but a warm-up could be the end for these carefree aristocrats and rich people.

By the use of Divine Sense, Frank quickly sensed the presence of strong magus, however, around all of the capital there was a few of them, at least a dozen that were Rank 4 or above, although he could not see them completely nor sense their complete power as the city was filled with too many people, which made it difficult to concentrate into a single presence.

"Well, I guess that's how it is around here… Though, perhaps things might change if more tremors emerge around here," said Gwendolyn.

"Yeah, they will have to sooner or later realize what's going on outside…" said Vheslia.

"The difference between the economical difference between the people in here and those that live humbly in towns and villages outside is very big… This place seems to be a completely different world compared to the towns of the outside," said Frank.

"Yeah… That's how it is… Living in the capital is also incredibly expensive, even an ex-soldier such as me had to move out," said Gwendolyn.

"Well, thanks to the materials we have harvested and gathered, it should be possible for us to live comfortably from now on!" said Vheslia.

"At least for the time we'll stay in here, we can live comfortably in Yurei," said Frank.

"Eh? But where will we place her?" wondered Annabelle.

"Yurei recently evolved, and I believe she should be capable of fusing herself with any manor we buy, so it could be possible to mask her as a building we bought," said Frank.

"Oh?! Well, that's amazing then," said Cathyl.

"Yeah, Yurei had grown stronger too! Even if she's a house, she really wants to protect us," said Hilvera.

Yurei was being currently carried by Frank, as he had put her momentarily inside of his Divine Realm.

However, to merge with this society and find the clues he needs while also most likely reuniting with the other Heroes, Frank needs to live here.

If it were for him, he would simply live inside of his Divine Realm.

But he understood that he needed to be present in the city to show that he, as a Hero, was present for the people he represented.

Truly, it was a pain in the ass for him to be a Hero, he really did not want to, but he actually cared about this world, and was willing to protect it.

And well, he had already beaten some Gods and made them his servants, so this world was halfway through becoming his own possession.

He simply needed to keep growing stronger and find opportunities to talk with the other Gods, help the Heroes grow stronger so they can be of any use, gather the artifacts to revive his parents, and possibly fight Abyssal Horrors that might begin to emerge around the city.

He had also developed Spatial Magic through his Cosmic King Magic, and was now able to Teleport, aside from also creating Spatial Gates that he could set to connect one place to another, which he was going to do to connect Orb's Dungeon with his new Manor in here, so he can visit her whenever he wanted.

There were many things that Frank wanted to do in this place, although the main quest was getting his parents revived, he needed to do everything step by step.

He had scheduled a meeting with Reuberto in two weeks from now, as he was very busy, and in two weeks he would be able to finally meet with the other Heroes, which Reuberto was gathering.

From what he got from Reuberto, it seemed that the Heroes were very eager to meet him, although Frank was not really liking the idea of babysitting them, so he hoped that they were already strong on their own.

At the very least, he knew that there was a Rank 6 Heroine within them, the Demon Race one, who was known as the "Immortal Witch".

The Heroes were taking their time to move to the large area where they would go, which was near Westwind Capital, as they were battling Abyssal Horrors in the way.

It seemed that when they combined their strength, they had the power to beat such creatures, so Frank expected them to be as strong…

"Damn, this place is really something else," said Asterion.

"For today let's go with the plans, we'll go meet Clishya and Adrian in the new Guild they're working in, and then we'll go buy a manor with the old man that Vheslia knows," said Frank.

"Sounds good, I want to stretch my legs, we had been sitting in here for hours…" sighed Gwendolyn.

"Can we go around the streets? I kind of want to buy a few treats in the way…" said Vheslia.

"Yeah, can we?" asked Annabelle with a cute smile.

"Ah, that would be lovely!" said Hilvera.

"Oh, I saw a ton of interesting stuff around, it wouldn't be bad!" said Asterion.

"Alright then, but let's not take too much time," said Frank, as Kamei who was adorably sleeping at his side slowly woke up.

"Muh? Ah… D-Did I fell asleep?" asked Kamei.

"You did…" said Frank as he petted his sister and kissed her forehead.

"Ahhh… I want to snuggle with nii-sama a bit more… Eh? What is that?!" asked Kamei.

"Oh, we are in the capital right now, in fact, this is where we get down," said Frank.

The carriage reached a large place where many other carriages were stationed, as the party finally walked out of it.

"Thanks for everything, it was a good trip," said Frank, as he gave a tip to the old dog-kin man that brought them here.

"Sure thing young man, take care," said the old man, who had been slowly guided by Frank's mere words, being kinder than he should have been.

"W-Woah… This place is really just enormous!" said Kamei while almost dropping her jaw in surprise.

"Indeed, let's get going… Gwendolyn-san, where was the guild again?" asked Frank.

"It is just a few more streets from here… we just have to walk straight anyways," said Gwendolyn with a gentle smile, who had changed her usual and simple medieval clothes, and was wearing a rather beautiful crimson dress, chest armor over her large chest, alongside tight stockings, and metallic heels, she had a left shoulder pad too, and her hair was tied into a beautiful and long ponytail, she radiated a refined beauty that enchanted Frank with every second he glanced at her…

"Hm? W-What?" asked Gwendolyn while blushing a bit as she noticed Frank's stare.

"Ah, no, I was just admiring the beauty of my wife, that's all," said Frank.

"Geez… D-Don't say those embarrassing things in the middle of the streets, you make us seem like a pair of little kids," sighed Gwendolyn, although she could not help but feel happy to receive the praises of Frank. She had worked quite hard into getting her hair as beautiful as today, while also having been taking care of her skin, and her physical body was at its peak of fitness due to her constant exercise when she went hunting monsters and well when it was nighttime with Frank.

In fact, in those times is where she did a ton of exercise.

"Will you stop staring at each other so lovingly? Let's go!" said Annabelle, breaking the little atmosphere of the two.
