St Chaos Healer

Ch 40 - The Inner District

The blondie, Mr. Keith leads the way to the noble district.

The three were quite excited as we pass through the inner corridor entering the inner district.

My mother was the one who was the most excited of all of us. She's been tightly grabbing my arm and pulling me around, it felt like my arm was gonna come apart anytime now.

After a short while, we finally stepped inside the interior region.

"Here we are, the formally recognized Delven city's noble district."

We were met with a view of rows of elegant designed houses and pavements.

The houses were made of smooth stones and there were intricate design patterns on each of them. The roads and pavements were clean and tidy with flower bushes kept aside at a few intervals.

I also saw people riding wild tamed mana beasts while wandering on the streets like it was no big deal. I rarely get to see the wild beast roam around in cities like this.

What caught my attention was that there were two types of people loitering around this district.

There were the rich class people who wore elegant fabric clothes parading on the street with their usual proud arrogant attitude.

The other people were the sweaty bunch of people who were armed to the boot with armor and weapons. They were the brave wild adventurers whose thirst for venturing in the wild had no bounds.

These two were the most volatile group populating the inner district.

One group had manner bound and elegant living. While the other group was a bunch of ragtag violent groups of adventurers. It was quite surprising seeing them in the same street.

The three of the Almonds definitely didn't belong in either of the groups.

My mother's eyes twinkled like the stars.

"Ah! This is so nostalgic," she muttered to herself in a low voice.

Mr. Keith was surprised,

"Have you been here before?"

"Uh... No, no. What I meant was this is how exactly I had imagined the inner district. Haha." she replied whimsically.

"Well, it's great that you are starting to feel at home. But I would suggest you guys stick close to me so that you don't get lost. Let's first head to Master Bervice's mansion where you guys will be staying."

Mr. Keith once again started to lead the way and the three of us followed like an obedient herd of sheep.

The inner district was built on a whole different level, unlike the outer district.

There were tidy streets, beautiful sculptures, fountains, gardens, and many more such things.

Despite the beautiful district and lively people, I noticed there was a rift between the adventurers and the rich class citizens. The two groups always kept their distance from each other like oil and water.

Although there were no open conflicts between the two, there was a certain bad air around the two. It seem like they were deliberately avoiding each other.

It's best that we not piss off either of the factions.

Already there's a mystery of the gold pass holder's dying unnaturally. It's better to just stay in the villa until all this is over.

After walking around for some time we finally arrived in front of a big villa.

There was a gigantic villa which had a big garden at the front.
