The journey continued without any issues, allowing them to have a relaxing trip to Ebonscale.
"I'm kind of sad that we did not run into any trouble." Shaman was rather disappointed that nothing special was happening as it got rather boring sitting on Betty's back.
"Yeah well, you were the one that decided to go for a three day trip not the 1 day one." Elysia was affected by the boredom greatly and had not stopped complaining the last 2 days of travel.
"It was cheaper and who knows how expensive living will be since we are going to a adventurer based city." Shamans' major point of concern was that they would not have enough money since the cities they lived in were for the ordinary, who did not pursue being an adventurer and could not earn a high income.
"You don't know that!" Elysia did not think like this and assumed that everything would be the same price like everywhere else and only adventurer specific benefits would be expensive.
"There is something called inflation and I can guarantee the higher tier city we visit, the higher the prices." Shaman wanted nothing more than to bonk Elysia as Shaman's financial decision could have saved them a place to stay for the night.
"hmph." Elysia looked away as Shaman made a valid argument but she still did not want to admit defeat.
"I swear all you do is bicker, let me sleep in peace." Wolfy, who now had the ability to speak telepathically, could not help but complain.
Shaman and Elysia both turned to Wolfy with a dead look.
"Just because you can talk now does not mean you get extra privileges now." Elysia had a innocent smile which scared Wolfy
"yes ma'am." Wolfy instantly resigned and went back to trying to tune out the conversation.
"No need to be so rude, Elysia." Shaman felt bad for Wolfy as it seems like nothing changed and Wolfy started to become a ghost once again.
Wolfy brightened up a little after hearing his mother defend her and was hoping that Shaman would punish Elysia.
"Still." Elysia tried to keep the tsundere act up but it came to a halt when Shaman used the blade of her hand to chop down and hit the top of Elysia's head.
"Oww." Elysia grabbed the top of her head.
"Stop being annoying, we are almost there." Shaman felt good after hitting Elysia as the built up frustration of Elysia complaining had been released.
"fine." Elysia rubbed her head as the pain from the chop lingered. Luckily Wolfy could control whether he was able to broadcast his thoughts as he was laughing at Elysia and knew he might get the same treatment if she could hear him.
"Also how is Wolfy able to speak the English language so fluently?" The thought never crossed her mind and was curious if it was the systems doing once again.
"As you may have guessed, it was the system that allowed Wolfy to talk and comprehend what is being said, since he is connected to you through the system. Also nice pump on your head Elysia." Elysia used her hands to cover her head as Rea's comment made her embarrassed.
"I thought so, but why all of a sudden." Shaman still did not get why specifically at level 75 Wolfy was granted the ability to speak.
"Well Wolfy could have gotten it since he was born but certain perquisites had to be met before he was able to obtain the skill and here is a hint, this also applies to you and Elysia."

Rea left a wink and seemingly vanished once again.
Shaman let out a sigh as this means there are secret missions that she can complete but what really hit her was the fact she has not completed a single one yet.
"That wink does not help." Elysia was more annoyed at the fact that Rea sent a wink through the system.
"Not much we can do." Shaman was a little bummed out by it but if anything she just has to let it happen.
"I guess so." Elysia did not really care much for it as the missions were more for Shaman than her.

Some time had passed and the city of Ebonscale could finally be seen.
"Finally we made it." Elysia let out a sigh of relief as the mind numbing journey is finally coming to an end.
"I will say this place looks beautiful." They were close enough to see the buildings and the type of architecture and Shaman could not help but be in awe.
A gate that was decorated with golden dragons could be seen and indicated that this was the main entrance to the city.
Around the walls of the city it could be seen purple leaves, Shaman could not quite make out what type of tree it was but it contrasted from the grey city wall. The buildings went up into a spike with one tall building in the middle and the surrounding buildings slowly descending around it getting lower till it can not be seen, being covered by the city wall.
The buildings resemble traditional Chinese architecture with all the residential buildings sharing the same look with buildings that held significance being more grander and were much bigger than the rest.
To Shaman this was a complete culture shift and wondered how much this city would resemble the China of her old world. However upon that thought something struck Shamans mind.
'Is there other reincarnations that came to this world before me?' Shaman began to seriously consider this possibility but unfortunately this time Rea did not answer.
'I guess the only way I am going to find out is figuring out the origins of this place.' Shaman was not a fan of research but due to her system allowing just insert information she may as well fuel her curiosity.
*
They got closer to the city and Shaman was finally able to identify the trees that surrounded the city.
"Oh my god, they are purple sakura trees." Shaman could not believe it as the sight of full blooming purple sakura trees was a sight to behold. Even Elysia was memorized a little by the sight.
"Can we just live here and not move?" Elysia really likes the look of the place and would not be against the idea of permanently living here.
"As much as I want to say yes I have a place I need to return to but even then I'm not sure if I want to go back." Shaman was not opposed to the idea but she needed to at least get as strong as she can and at least have the chance to return back home despite maybe never wanting to return.
"I guess so but we can always come back once we get to tier 10." Elysia understood that they needed to get stronger before they could settle anywhere so she could not really argue in not staying.
"Plus this is a human city, who knows how bad the situation will get between the races." Shaman remembered a crucial point and that was the fact they were in human territory.
"tsk, why do the good looking places have to be in the human territory." Elysia clicked her tongue as she was once reminded again of the fact they would be surrounded by mainly humans.
"Oh well, let's suck this place of EXP and hopefully we can finally escape into Elfheim." Shaman realized this trip brought them really close to the neighboring Elfheim territory and they may no longer be surrounded by as many humans anymore.
"I can't wait, I just feel so out of place all the time." Elysia words were quite true as each city they have been to, there has been very little beastmen around.
*
They eventually reached the gate and were stopped by human guards that wore armour of an ancient Chinese warrior.
'So it seems like there might be another reincarnator as this looks way too similar to my old world.' Shaman could not shake this feeling of familiarity as the place reeked of Chinese culture.
"Badge please." The guards asked for the travel pass that was given to them by the old man. Shaman pulled it out and the guards let them through.
They entered the gate and Betty went straight for the stable that was to the left of the gate and entered it.
Once they had delivered Betty and passed back the badge to the owner of the stable Shaman, Elysia and Wolfy were free to do what they wanted.
"Well I guess the first order of business would be to find a place to stay."
"Well Shaman, you are the one that picks the places so I hope you don't disappoint." Elysia let out a smile as she was clearly trying to avoid responsibility.
Shaman sighed as it was probably better that she decided since Elysia would just spend all of their money in a heartbeat.
'Oh well, I guess I better start looking.' Shaman resigned to her fate and the group walked off into the city.
