Otherworld Adventure 146 Silvaria City

With the previous populace of Earth and the quick establishment of the city's government and management, they were able to quickly construct a magnificent city. It's not like the people became stupid just because they were transferred to another world.

They still retained all their previous knowledge and expertise. All they needed was the time to adapt to their new living environment and condition. Then all that was left was the management and materials to construct the current magnificent city.

Although many constructs and buildings in the city weren't quite finished yet, but the current situation was much better than when they first arrived on Alterna, this mysterious new world. Maybe because it was due to the now present presence of mana, but the physiques and health of the Earthlings had improved to a high degree.

Old men and women in the age range of 70-80 had experienced an upgrade to their physiques. After a consensus, many inhabitants of Silvaria City have said they felt like they've grown 10-20 years younger.

The old men and women were now fit to work on the fields or even help out with the construction of the city. This improvement was even more so to the people who were middle aged or still in their 20s and 30s.

It was only because of this unexpected development that the current Silvaria City was present in the No-man's Land of the Midgard Continent.

This was only for the ordinary citizens. As for the Silvaria Family whose every member was a martial artist, the improvement was much more prominent. Crus.h.i.+ng boulders and moving large obstacles with their bare hands, it was now all possible.

Also, because of this development, Grandpa Silvaria and Father Silvaria were now gloating and in high spirits. Their nonsense from back on Earth, they were now living through all that nonsense.

Anastasia could only sigh when she saw the smiling faces of her city's citizens. Who would have thought that only after a little less than a year, things would have developed in such a positive direction.

Anastasia quickly arrived in front of the Silvaria Martial Academy. Along the way, many of the citizens greeted her with courtesy and respect. This woman was one of the main reasons that they could now live a happy life even after the Transmigration Incident.

They also felt very sorry for her. She had lost a child, who was said to be the next head of the Silvaria Family. The loss had devastated her for a long time, but because she put the people in mind, she had to shelve it away in the name duty.

While Anastasia was waiting in front of the school's gate, many parents also began to trickle in. They too were there to pick up their children. Most of them were woman while a select few were men.

A couple came up to Anastasia, the woman greeted her with a slight smile.

"Oh my, Anastasia, I didn't think I'd see you here, how have you been?"

"Hi, Sara, I'm doing fine, you?"

"Same as you, are you here to pick up Angelia?"

"Yes."

Sara Argent, she was the young mistress of the Argent family, a prominent family back in Edelesta City on Earth. They were now also a prominent family in Silvaria City. Their family served in the Council of Six, the high council that managed Silvaria City with the Silvaria Family as the head.

The man next to Sara bowed politely and took a step back. He was a butler of the Argent family. Seeing that it would still take a while before the children came out, Sara and Anastasia began conversing to pa.s.s the time. The conversation was mostly about trivial things, until Sara touched up on a sensitive topic.

"By the way, I'm sure you already heard about the pathway leading to the other side of these mountains, no?" Sara whispered making sure her voice was only loud enough so that only she and Anastasia can hear.

"Yes, the advance team has also already secured and cleared the area of monsters. We're planning to build an outpost before exploring the area on the other side of the mountains."

"That's great! Ana, don't you think this is great! Maybe you son was actually–ah!" Sara was really elated for her friend, but she inadvertently touched upon a very sensitive topic.

She quickly covered her mouth and was about to apologize, but Anastasia smiled brightly and said, "It's okay Sara. At least now, there's a greater chance of finding him..."

"Yes! That's right! There's a better chance now!" Sara replied in encouragement. She regretted begin so thoughtless, but there was now a no doubt at least a bigger hope for the mother to find her son.

The Earthlings hadn't fully explored the entire area on their side of the mountain yet. They found the area to be much bigger than they had first estimated. The mountains stretched so far away on the left and right sides of the valley that it was only after many months of exploration did the scouting team finally reach the ends of each side of the mountain range before they began curving inwardly.

They were actually inside an enclosure with mountains surrounding them on all sides, but from the area they mapped out, the mountains began curving in only after stretching to the east and west for over 100 kilometers each in distance. So if they did the math, just trying to explore and map out the whole place would probably take years on foot.

It would be different if they had an automobile of course, but with things as they are, there's no way they could even make such a thing. Although the knowledge and materials were there, but with no tools to help them, then how could they proceed with that?

Not to mention... they still hadn't found any viable source of fuel yet. Even now, the people were living without any form of electricity or convenience. The city only looked good on the outside. On the inside, there were still many things they were lacking and need improving.

Aside from plumbing and sewage control, electricity, transport, gadgets, machinery and almost every sort of convenience from Earth were currently not present in the city. The only good thing they had going was the fact that they had roofs over their heads, clothes to wear, food to eat, water to drink, and the safe haven of the city's ramparts protecting them from the monsters. But nevertheless, the Earthlings were still optimistic about the future.

"Mommy~!" A cute voice called out to Anastasia, she turned around and saw her little Angel waving at her with a bright smile.

Apparently, she was very popular since there were many children surrounding her. Angelia quickly bid good bye to her friends and dashed towards her Mom.

"How was your day, honey?"

"It was great, Mommy, the training isn't as hard as it is back at home, but it's pretty fun training and fighting with my friends!"

Anastasia smiled and led her daughter back home. It was pretty funny however, since when the two were walking next to each other, they looked like sisters because Anastasia was awfully short and youthful for her age.

When they got to their home, Anastasia couldn't help but notice that many of the disciples training under her husband were gathered together at the training field. It wasn't only them, but even the military of Silvaria City were present on the large field.

On top of the stage, Kaiser Silvaria alongside the other 5 leaders of the Council of Six, were present.

From what Anastasia heard, they seemed to be addressing the newfound path to the other side of the mountain. Kaiser was delivering the orders that the Council of Six had agreed upon, it was to explore the area on the other side of the mountain.

Kaiser had been pus.h.i.+ng for this and the other family heads also agreed, it was better to know what was outside. On their side of the mountains, they have mostly categorized the monsters and fauna in their region. They also had a large detailed map of the explored area.

The other side however was still a mystery, so it was better to get information ahead of time to prepare for anything. Kaiser also had another reason. It was so that they could explore the place in hopes of finding his lost son.

He knew that his wife was still grieving over the loss. It wasn't confirmed yet, but many already thought that Cecil was most likely dead. They haven't found any trace of him for almost a year now, despite their meticulous searches.

Even Anastasia herself was beginning to believe that Cecil was now dead, but with the path to the other side of the mountain having been found, a small sliver of hope had formed once again.

Once Kaiser finished addressing the disciples and military personnel, he entertained the important personages in the main mansion. After some time, the people started heading back to their homes in the city and Kaiser quickly found his wife.

The first thing Anastasia did when she saw her husband was to pounce and cling onto him. Kaiser was surprised and embraced her gently.

"...thank you."

"Hehe... what're you talking about? You're not the only one who's worried or hopeful."

While the couple was being intimate, the door of the mansion opened up and a young woman's voice rang through the mansion, "I'm home!"

Fatima had arrived home from her work, but she was immediately subjected to the pair of lovebird's intimate moment. She turned a blank look at her parents and sighed.

"...At least go do it in your room..." Fatima said a little annoyed. Here she was, in the prime of her youth, single and alone while her parents were still as lovey-dovey as when they had first met as teenagers.

"Hahahaha!! Sorry about that honey!" Kaiser said in his booming voice.

Anastasia smiled gently with a little blush on her face, but she was still clinging onto her husband and that husband was still embracing her gently.

Fatima's face twitched a little, she walked up to the mansion's second floor to her room in order to get changed. When she pa.s.sed by her parents she remembered something and asked, "Mom, Dad. The path to the other side, is the expedition team already full?"

"Hm? Well, we're having the military clear the way and quickly build the outpost. The expedition team will only set off after the outpost has been built."

"Oh... okay. I want permission to partic.i.p.ate in the expedition."

Anastasia was surprised hearing this and tried to object,

"Eh? Honey, we should just leave this to the professionals–"

"No! I'm tired of waiting around doing nothing but work. There's finally hope that we can find Cecil, so how can I sit by and wait?!"

Fatima's sudden outburst caused her parent to be surprised. She too was surprised, but she quickly regained her composure before continuing.

"Just let me do this, please. As the eldest sister, I'm also very worried about my youngest brother... I don't believe he's dead. There's just no way and I have a gut feeling telling me that he's still alive and well."

"...alright, you're already an adult. So do as you see fit. But I have a condition. You have to be able to defeat at least 1 of my best disciples before you can go. Only then will your mother and I be free from worry."

"Haha~ who do you think you're talking to father? Other than Cecil, then wouldn't you say that I'm your BEST disciple?"

"Hmph. After years of not training, we'll see if you can still say that later!"

"Heh, we'll see about that. Bring in as much as possible or else it wouldn't even be a warm up!"

Seeing their daughter so confident, the husband and wife laughed and Kaiser let go of his wife and quickly made his way back to the Silvaria dojo to prepare.
