Pretentious City

Enopy now had an uneventful journey, as he kept his pace in the air.

Unlike Enopy with his sly moves, Layen and Zow continued to fall and recover.

After weeks of travel, they were close to the top of the mountain where the deadly roots got stronger and bigger; they appeared on the surface of the mountain, giving Layen and Zow, a hard time choosing where to step.

Layen had faced some bloodsuckers during the journey and he was able to take care of them with some struggle.

Zow was protected by Kaito, her poison would have no effect on the bloodsuckers; so she was sure to die without Kaitos help.

Enopy flew through the air with a bored expression as he looked around.

Layen and Zow were the same as Kaito kept his cold expression while he leaped.

"How has he not cramped up yet," Enopy said as he glanced at Kaito.

"Wihhp" the sound of a whip-crack resounded through the area. What followed was Kaito going towards the ground at full speed.

"BoOm," a dust cloud covered the area, but the scene of Kaito inside a huge crater was replaced by a giant root.

Enopy looked down at Kaito, and went on with his day as if nothing happened  "It seems that the roots, or at least the stronger ones, take Kaito as their main enemy; this is not the first time this has happened, but he has gotten out of his situation's with minimal injuries," Enopy thought with a nonchalant expression and a carefree tone.

Kaito jumped up from the crater, and did twists and turns, around the root sending a barrage of kicks and punches; he moved like a slug making slick moves every time the root got too close to him.

It took him almost no time before he created a huge sword which he sent at the huge root, killing it in one blow. Then, he turned towards the rest and said.

"After we get past this mountain, we have a two-month journey, but after the mountain, there is a city luckily that luckily is poor. huu, good that we have such an advanced method of travel in this era," Kaito announced as he created stairs out of his fragrance.

Layen, Zow, and Enopy made no evident moves to confirm they heard Kaito.

"Land city, they probably have a travel tunnel, we could probably get to our location quicker than I expected," Enopy thought as he moved his energy to his back and laid in the air.

They soon reached the top of the mountain.

"We don't need to use techniques going down just fall," Kaito said, stating the obvious.

Zow split her cloud into two and moved them towards her hands; she boosted herself forward, Layen moved his blue wind to his feet, Kaito created a slide and slid down it, and Enopy used his movement technique and beamed forward.

They got help from momentum, so they reached the bottom in just two days and some.

"We have a short way to go before we reach the land city," Kaito said.

Enopy ran ahead; he wanted to get away from that dangerous feeling, that tormented him.

He soon escaped the range of the mountain, and all feeling of danger disappeared even the little faint feeling that he had felt since he came to this world.

Enopy didn't notice that the faint feeling had left him, but he was relieved when the mind-splitting danger disappeared.

"We're here."

"What?" Enopy, Zow, and Layen exclaimed, while to looked around frantically.

"Where? there's not one building in sight?" Zow asked.

Wait, Kaito said as he walked over to a flat part of the land, that matched the surrounding ground.

"I am Kaito," he said as he pulled out a badge, that had a hand, and a variety of weapons on top of it, the weapons had particles flying off of them.

"A junior master manipulator from the weapon deity Academy, I have a few students and a low-level master healer."

"Oh right," Enopy remembered that he was just a student, all the things that had happened clouded his mind.

Enopy was pulled out of his trance by a blinding light, that brought a door-like figure along with it.

soon after the light dialed down, a few figures appeared.

"We are sorry esteemed manipulator, welcome to our humble city." 3 magic knights stood with their heads down.

"It's fine, and call me Kaito," Kaito said as he walked through the huge door.

The three stared at Enopy and the rest, their insisting eyes, forced them to walk through the door.

"What the fuck city, my ass? This is more like a state!" Enopy shouted in his mind, as he inspected the miles and miles of buildings and towers.

He was taken back, by the transparent tunnels in the air, that went on for miles leaving him unable to see or sense the end.

The buildings were full white; they went from 2 stories and up.

"Hello, I am Sirus Ace, the leader of the pretentious city; what brings you here?" A man in a white kimono walked over and introduced himself.

"We are going to the HDTF, and we lost a bunch of students during the journey and traveled almost endlessly and.." Kaito stopped and looked at Enopy briefly he went back to his conversation.

"We would like to rest here for a month, and can we use the travel tunnel to get to the dock? "Kaito asked.

"You can rest here as long as you like, and when you want to leave, you can use the travel tunnel, no problem," Sirus answered.

"Thanks. Can you show us where we will be staying? I think we would all like to be in separate houses," Kaito said as he turned slightly and looked at Enopy and the rest.

"I'll show you to your quarters Kai, Ash; Prime takes the others," Sirius said as he completely ignored Enopy and the rest.

"What is this feeling? Why does Kaito have malicious intent against me? Is it my cultivation? Shit, I need to go soon then; I need a plan, for now, I'll act normal and use this place to my advantage. "
