16 Central City, Mageaf

Rhys was sitting on a maglev train as he talked with his sister through his digital watch. He was taught by Hansel, then rode the train in the afternoon. "I have to buy something in Mageaf and take Hansel's nephews tomorrow. Don't wait for me because I won't be able to go home tonight."

Ana nodded her head."Be careful."

Rhys ended the call, then stared at the river outside.

A five-meter white bird suddenly dove and caught a huge fish with its talon. It looked like a white parrot. It ate the fish and flew closer to the train.

There was a girl sitting on the magic bird.

"Is she an assigned guard?" asked Rhys in his mind.

Every region had a central city and was surrounded by smaller cities. Regions that were closer to each other were connected by maglev trains. Some tracks had to be made below the ground. There was no road access for cars because of the dangers of magic beasts, and demons. There were exonns that rode the trains as guards. There were also small stations for exonns that could give reinforcement when needed.

Mageaf and the six cities that surrounded it were in a region called Vasteasia.

Rhys was watching the huge trees, plants, and docile magic beasts in the ecological park as the train quickly ran. The rabbit was quiet. It was sleeping in his soul space.

Beyond the park, there were small green hills and abundant rice fields. There was corn and other crops.

The train reached Mageaf. Rhys moved out of the station and stared at the city. There were a lot of tall buildings, skyways, non-human beings, and exonns who were flying in the air.

He went to a special economic zone in the city called Town Worlds. He couldn't help but smile. The buildings were made of wood. There were smith shops, weapon shops, meat, bread, and other shops. The pathways were made of stones or tiles. Humans and nonhumans were shopping. There were a variety of fruits that could only be found in other worlds. Non-humans prefer shopping in town worlds because it made them feel at home. Humans were also shopping because it was making them marvelous. It felt like they were in another world.

Rhys went to a shop that was selling magic beasts. He showed his ID as an exonn, then he bought a magic beast that looked like a one-foot rabbit with blue eyes. The beast had no magical power, but it was strong. It could even carry a child on its back.

In the evening, he was standing on a rooftop as he held the cage of the magic beast.

"Is it time?" asked Fu in his soul space.

"Yeah," said Rhys, then he moved up to the sky. He flew to an ecological park, then he released the dobit.

In the morning, he went to the association to register Fu.

The staff member named Dean looked at the arrogant one-foot rabbit who could talk and walk like a human. "Where did you come from?"

"Tier 4 World: Wodlland."

"Race?"

"Whitezax."

"How did you get here?"

"Because I am smart."

Dean became speechless for a moment. "Name?"

The rabbit had a look of hesitation on his face. He couldn't help but look at Rhys.

Rhys nodded his head.

The rabbit gritted his teeth and said, "Fu… fu."

"What? I didn't hear it clearly."

"It's Fufu! Damn it!" Shouted the rabbit.

They had to hide his real name. Rhys wanted to completely change the name, but the rabbit could not compromise, so they used Fufu, which was a common name for magic beasts.

Dean chuckled, then he looked at the computer. "Whitezax Race has a good record, and the energy that I feel from him belongs to Tier 1. Are you sure you want to be his guarantor? He looks like trouble."

"What did you say?! Do you know who I am?!" shouted the rabbit.

Dean nodded his head. "Yeah, you are Fufu."

Rhys blocked the mouth of the rabbit. "Yeah, I want to be his guarantor."

"He will be allowed to stay, but once you hold an important position, any beings from the other worlds can't be easily allowed to stay even if you become their guarantor. It will require strict review. You are just a new exonn and have a simple background, so the approval is simple. But if he makes trouble, you will also be in trouble."

Rhys smiled. "I understand."

They left the association, but the rabbit had an angry look on his face. "Does he think I am a child?!"

Rhys chuckled, then he flew to the airport and waited for Hansel's nephews.

A huge gray plane was vertically moving down. Its wheels moved out and landed on the concrete.

Within the airport, Rhys was waiting until he saw four young dwarves guided by an association staff.

"Rhys Creed?"

"I am."

The staff smiled. "They're in your hands."

"Thank you."

Rhys smiled at the four dwarves, who looked curious. Then he raised his watch and said,"Connect me to Hansel."

Hansel's face appeared over the watch.

"It's uncle Hans!"

"Uncle Hans!"

Hansel laughed. "I have an important meeting, so I could not take you from the airport, but I sent a friend to take you from there. You can just call him brother Rhys. He will guide you in the city and take you to my place when I return. Enjoy your time there, but don't cause too much trouble, understand?"

"We understand Uncle Hans. We will closely watch Betty, so she won't cause trouble!" said Charlie.

The little girl became angry and slapped the little dwarf's head.

"Hahahaha! Betty, did you ask for your parent's permission? I thought only three of them could come."

Betty vigorously nodded her head."I did uncle!"

"Uncle, she threatens the aun-"

The little girl glared at the little dwarf, causing him to shut up.

Hansel laughed. "We will talk again later."

The four dwarves looked at Rhys with expectation.

"Brother Rhys, where are we going?"

Rhys smiled, then he brought them to an amusement park. The rabbit and dwarves had shining eyes as they stared at the park.

The rabbit was looking at the floating SuperTerry.

An exonn was wearing a costume of Terry and was using wind magic to float and fly in the air.

Other staff no longer need to wear costumes because they are real non-human beings.

They rode a roller coaster and small floating cars. They ate snacks and tried the other amusements in the park. They moved around the park and saw a four-meter-tall giant with long brown hair and a beard sitting on a huge chair.

"It's Hubris!" said Charlie, then the four little guys rushed to the giant.

"Hubris!" shouted Bently.

"Hahahaha! Little guys, what are you doing here?" asked Hubris while holding a huge flask that contained Cola.

"We want to visit Earth because we heard that it is very fun!" said Gram.

"Hubris! Your father is looking for you!" Shouted Charlie.

Hubris laughed. "I will only stay for a short time here. I am also curious about this world, so I visited it and had some fun."

Then he looked at Rhys and said,"Where is Hansel?"

"He has an important meeting, so I have to take them from the airport."

Hubris nodded his head. "The little guys know how to behave, but you should watch Betty because she might get you in trouble."

Betty became angry. "Hmpf! Hubris, I will tell your father where you are!"

The giant laughed.

After playing in the amusement park, they watched movies, then in the afternoon, they rode a train to Mugwer City. The little guys got tired and fell asleep.

They went to the apartment after they reached the city.

"Thanks," said Hansel, then he looked at the rabbit on Rhys' shoulder.

"His name is Fufu," said Rhys with a smile. "I still need to go to the association."

"Are you preparing for the assessment?"

"Yeah."

Hansel smiled. "I will wait for good news."

The little guys said their goodbyes to Rhys and the rabbit.

Rhys finished his training in the evening. He sat on the rooftop of a short building near the food street, then ate the noodles prepared by Bastien as he watched the scene below him.

"Hahahaha! You are also becoming regular here," said Philipp, causing Rhys to smile. Then he looked at the rabbit, who looked serious while reading a comic. He shook his head and sat beside Rhys as he also ate his noodles. "Is the assessment going to start tomorrow?"

"Yeah."

"Show them what you got."

Rhys chuckled, then his eyes turned sharper. "I want to enter Kindom. I will not let my white armor become a reason that will delay my entry. If I have to top the assessment, then so be it."

A smile appeared on Fu's face.
