Stop looking at me.

Maria and Marco led the way. The three just walked for a minute and they can hear many people chattering.

"Did you hear that the Monsters disappeared?"

"Really? The monsters that should attack us? But how could that be possible?"

"I heard that the attacker used a meteor to obliterate the monsters!"

"..."

".."

They can hear many chattering but they all have the same topic which is about the monsters that were killed.

"If the monsters were killed by a meteor, does it mean the attacker is Tier-8 Warrior? Because I have read on books saying that [Meteor] is an 8th tier fire magic." Maria is shocked but she still don't believe it a hundred percent unless it came from a reliable source of information.

Because of many chattering, they unknowingly arrived at the Transportation Hall. The three entered the big looking Hall.

The size is not very big like the Warrior Hall. It's size should be half of it. They saw few people took so they took the chance try acquiring carriages.

"Good morning, how may I help you?" A beautiful looking lady asked.

"Can we buy carriages we would like to go to the empire." Maria spoke.

"Oh. Please come with me."

They followed the beautiful lady. They exit the hall and headed to the back part of the hall.

They saw hundreds of carriage divided by it's grade. Many guards are guarding the carriage. Their average strength is Tier-3. Only a few people is acquiring a carriage so it's not noisy.

"At the left are the low grade carriages. At the middle are intermediate grade carriages. Lastly on the right are the high grade carriages." The beautiful lady pointed from left to right and divided it's grades. Then she looked at Zero.

While scratching his head, Marco spoke shyly

"W-we would like to acquire low grade carriages."

"Sure." The beautiful lady did not bother when Marco said they will choose the low grade carriages.

The beautiful lady lead them to the low grade carriages.

"My name is Kat. Please feel free to call me by my name. A low grade carriage cost 10 silvers." Kat took another glance at Zero at this time she was caught. Zero did not speak plus he is also used when someone is admiring his appearance.

Maria asked Kat

"Is the rumor about the monsters being exterminated by a meteor is true?"

"Yes. The Warrior Hall send scouts and they confirmed that the monsters are all annihilated. They also guarded the way to the empire to assure the situation so don't worry about your safety." Kat gave them an assuring statement.

Zero nodded while the two took a little bit more time to believe on what Kat said before they also nodded.

"We are planning to leave now. How much will we pay for the driver who will man the helm?"

Marco curiously asked.

"If the destination is in the empire, it will take at least 3 days. A single day payment for driver is 1 silver coin so for 3 days, it's 3 silver coins. A total of 13 silver coins is needed if you want to enter the empire." Kat explained.

Marco and Maria nodded.

"We will come back later. We will be packing our things first."

Marco said before bidding farewell to Kat. Maria also bid her farewell while Zero just walked away with them.

"Sir Zero that girl from earlier keeps looking at you! I think she likes you!" Marco said to Zero teasingly.

Zero is not bothered with his teasing but he said

"No, that girl, she's different. She's not normal." Zero said seriously.

'Perhaps she knows my identity? It can't be that.' Zero shook his head and sighed.

Maria and Marco are confused but they did not ask when they saw how serious is Zero.

They arrived at the small house and Marco and Maria started packing their things. They put their things inside the storage ring so the things will not burden them.

They only took a few minutes packing their things. Maria and Marco noticed that Zero did not bring things with him.

"Sir Zero you don't have any things with you?Ahh it must be inside your storage ring." Maria saw the ring that Zero is wearing.

Zero just nodded. His ring is not a storage ring but it is for sealing his power. He don't want to reveal that he can use [Pocket Dimension] so it's good that the two thought that the ring he is wearing is a storage ring.

Storage rings are used to store things. It is like Zero's [Pocket Dimension] but more inferior. The storage ring is divided by 5 grades.

1st-grade which is the lowest has a 10 cubic meters. It costs 40 silver coins.

2nd grade has a 25 cubic meters space inside. It costs 80 silver coins.

3rd grade has a 100 cubic meter space inside it costs 300 silver coins.

4th grade has a 500 cubic meters space inside it cost 1,600 silver coins.

5th grade has a 1,000 cubic meters space inside it costs 3,000 silver coins.

In the empire, there is two additional ranks.

They are 6th and 7th Grade. These two higher ranks can only be bought in the empire.

6th grade has a 500,000 cubic meter space. It cost 15 gold coins.

7th grade has a 1,000,000 cubic meters space it costs 30 gold coins.

Marco and Maria closed the door of the house. Then the three headed back again to the Transportation Hall.

A few minutes have passed, they are now in the Transportation Hall again. Kat is waiting for their return and when she saw them approaching her, she immediately approached them.

"The carriages are now ready to depart." Kat lead them towards their carriage. Kat gave another glaze to Zero. Maria and Marco got excited so they run first towards the carriage. When Zero saw that he and Kat is alone, he approached her and murmur something to her.

"Stop glaring at me or else I'll rip your eyes off." Zero whispered to her in a serious and cold tone. He gave a sharp look to Kat before following Marco and Maria.

Kat shivered when she heard Zero's cold voice. She trembled and subconsciously took a step back before returning to her work. She planned to bid them farewell but now that things like that happened, she just retreated.

Zero hated the most is when someone is monitoring his movements or when someone looked at him like he/she knows his secret. Zero is used when someone is looking at him with admiration and even someone who is looking at him with ill intent. Zero felt that Kat's glare is not admiration and ill intent. It's like she knows something about Zero that only Zero is aware. So he don't have any choice but to scare her. He even want to interrogate her but the situation let him not to because they need to leave now.
