Although he felt a little weird, Tatsumi didn't dwell on it any more. He wasn't a person with low emotional intelligence and he knew that saying these things would make the girl in front of him unhappy.

At this time, the guard who had run away before noticed that Tulong was dead, and actually ran back again.

The driver also returned to the carriage and started to load the goods again. When Tatsumi saw this, he took the initiative to help.

Although there was a danger of death, if you want to continue living in this world, you cannot give up and you have to overcome everything.

The things in the car still need to be moved and the money still needs to be earned.

"Thank you, kid."

After loading the goods, the driver thanked Tatsumi.

"It's nothing, it's what I should do."

Tatsumi rubbed the back of his head and smiled innocently.

After all, it's just a small favor, so if you can help, then help.

The driver looked at the innocent Tatsumi, thought of what he had said before, and couldn't help asking: "From what you said before, you don't want to go to the imperial capital to make a living, do you?"

"Yup!"

"To make a name for oneself in the imperial capital is just the romance of a country boy!"

In response to the driver's question, Tatsumi nodded as a matter of course without any hesitation.

This was the reason why he left his hometown and headed for the imperial capital, but unfortunately his companions were separated by bandits on the way.

However, after hearing what Tatsumi said, the driver shook his head and began to persuade him earnestly.

"Take my advice, it's better not to go to the imperial capital."

"……Why?"

This sentence made Tatsumi stunned and confused.

"The Imperial Capital...is not the kind of place you imagine where you can make your way through with just hard work."

"Although it is bustling, it is home to monsters more ferocious than earth dragons..."

The groom looked at Tatsumi very seriously, and the feeling he spoke seemed as if he had experienced it personally.

"What? Are there dangerous species everywhere on the streets?"

Tatsumi asked doubtfully, does that mean the imperial capital is a world where dangerous species are rampant?

It's too scary.

"It's a human..."

"They are wearing human skin but their hearts are no different from monsters... There are people like that everywhere in the capital..."

The groom explained weakly.

However, Tatsumi smiled slightly at this, and slowly put the long sword that was still standing outside into the scabbard during the conversation.

"Although I am very grateful for your warning, I have come here and I have no intention of going home."

"I...we..."

Tatsumi looked up at the pure blue sky, wondering what he was thinking about.

"We must make money in the imperial capital to save the village from crisis."

"Hey……"

"Then you can take care of yourself. I have already said everything I need to say."

Seeing Tatsumi's reaction, the driver said no more. It was difficult to persuade the damned man with kind words.

Then we got on the carriage and continued our journey...

Watching the carriage go away, Tatsumi didn't think much about it. He turned around and prepared to continue on his way, but he found that Clara in front was also walking towards the imperial capital.

Moreover, the big iron lump had completely disappeared, and no one knew where it had gone. Only Clara was left.

After thinking about it, Tatsumi hurriedly chased after him.

Chapter 8: Wonders that harm the country

“Clara, are you going to the imperial capital too?”

Tatsumi quickly caught up with Clara. Seeing such a timid girl hurrying on the journey, he felt a little uneasy.

I don’t know where that iron lump went.

"Ah."

Seeing Tatsumi catching up here, Clara nodded without caring.

Whether she went to the imperial capital alone or together, it didn't make any difference to her. Now that she knew what world it was, many things became simpler.

"Why are you alone here? Where is Mr. Tie... Mr. Shi... Mr. Shiwaro?"

Tatsumi glanced around, and it had completely disappeared in just a moment.

"Mr. Swarovski is always by my side. He will be there at the first moment when Clara needs him."

Clara didn't intend to hide it, and said it very generously, because she couldn't hide it at all. She would not let Swarovski remain in the void forever.

What's more, even if we knew it, it wouldn't have much impact.

"Always around? Why didn't I check?"

Tatsumi looked around, but still saw nothing. This suddenly reminded him of something and his body went cold. This shouldn't be what he thought.

Not human...

"Because Mr. Swarlow is in hiding."

"hide……"

This is so well hidden that it is completely invisible.

He looked around for places where he could hide, but Tatsumi could not see any signs of people hiding in those places.

"By the way, I'm going to the imperial capital too, why don't we go together?"

Not finding anything, Tatsumi no longer insisted and suggested going together so that he would have someone to talk to on the way.

He did not set out alone to explore the imperial capital, but was accompanied by his two best friends.

They all hope to make a career and stand out in the army.

But on the way, they were attacked by a group of bandits and he was separated from the other two.

By this time, Shayu and Iyeas might have already arrived in the imperial capital. Maybe they had already enlisted in the army, or at least settled down somewhere.

"Let's go to the imperial capital together? Clara has no objection."

After hearing what Tatsumi said, Clara thought about it and did not refuse.

"I don't know why you are going to the capital, Clara? I am going to join the army and make a name for myself. Then I will make money to save my hometown!"

Following Clara, Tatsumi curiously asked Clara why she went to the imperial capital. She shouldn't have the same reason as him.

Although I don't know her very well, the big thing just now doesn't look like something that an ordinary person would own. I heard that the guards said that there was a similar thing in the imperial capital before, but I don't know if it's true or not.

"It's not confirmed yet. Clara plans to wait and see after arriving in the imperial capital."

The girl shook her head. Although she understood the situation in this world, she had no clear idea of ​​what to do.

Should I join the Night Raid and join the resistance to overthrow the Empire?

Or join the empire, work your way up and reform from within?

But she found that none of them were suitable for her and she didn't like any of them. But in comparison, overthrowing the empire was easier because the empire would be overthrown anyway, and she only needed to watch.

As for the desire for reform, not to mention that this thousand-year-old empire had already become corrupt, there was also a minister who controlled the government and the little emperor was just a puppet.

He wanted to overthrow the ministers in government affairs and then carry out all-round reforms...

Just think about it and you can’t do it.

Clara doesn't know any of this.

"That's it."

Tatsumi nodded to show that he understood.

After walking for a while, Tatsumi looked at the most beautiful girl he had ever seen in his life, with long white hair and red eyes...

More importantly, the key thing that always attracts me from time to time is bare feet.

So I asked the doubts in my heart.

"Clara, doesn't it hurt your feet when you walk without shoes? Do you want me to give you my shoes?"

She walked such a long distance barefoot, and she was a girl. Tatsumi wondered if her shoes were broken or fell off.

It’s still a long way to the imperial capital. If you walk the whole way like this, your feet will be broken, right?

If necessary, he could give her his shoes, even though they might not fit her well.

"That... no need."

"I'm used to it. If I walk in shoes, I'll sprain my ankle."

Seeing Tatsumi preparing to take off her shoes for her, Clara quickly shook her head to refuse and explained why she didn't wear shoes.

It's not just uncomfortable, Clara would actually sprain her ankle if she walked in the shoes.

Anyway, it has the power of destiny, so it doesn't matter if I don't wear it.

"Sprained ankle? Is that so?"

Tatsumi scratched the back of his head out of habit and stopped taking off his shoes. He didn't expect it to be like this.

But is it really okay to walk such a long distance barefoot the whole way?

Although it seems that there is nothing wrong at the moment, Clara's feet are still clean after walking for so long, and are even whiter and tenderer than when he puts on shoes.

really weird.

Even Shayou can't compare to her.

……

The time came to the next afternoon.

The sunlight shines through the sparse clouds, casting strands of golden light, coating the entire world with a layer of warm glow.

It is not as dazzling as the morning sun, nor as soft as the evening glow. It illuminates every corner just right, making people feel comfortable and peaceful.

At this time, Clara and Tatsumi finally arrived at their destination, the center of the Millennium Empire, the Imperial Capital.

"Wow~~~!"

"Clara..."

"So the imperial capital is so big and prosperous?!"

Standing under the city gate, Tatsumi looked up at the endless imperial city, the bustling crowd, and felt the prosperity and magnificence of the imperial city. He couldn't help but sigh to Clara beside him.

"Ah."

The girl did not laugh at Tatsumi's behavior as a country bumpkin coming to the city, because she was also shocked by the scene before her.
