Chapter 5 - The city of Klosa

"Pfft." Uni started chuckling a bit after Lvle said his name."And you my name was strange."

"S-shut up. I was constantly teased about it when I was younger, and I would beg my parents to change it, but it was pointless." ^Lvle seemed like a nice person. Hopefully, I made the correct decision by going with him^

"Anyway, you said you knew where to go?"

"uh, yeah, but there's still quite a ways to go. Let me show you."

Lvle then ran into the woods, and Uni followed, or he tried.

^How is he running so fast?^

Lvle was the epitome of a ninja at this moment, as he was jumping off and around trees. Uni ultimately started falling behind and couldn't see him anymore.

"Wait"

"Lvle, wait for me!"

Uni Kept running fast to try and catch up to Lvle when he managed to escape the woods but almost ran off another cliff.

"WHOA! That was a close call!"

"You made it. What took you so long?"

"That wasn't even that long. You just went ridiculously fast."

"Well, if you call that fast, wait until you see the type of people in that city," Lvle said, pointing ahead.

Uni followed him where he pointed and was astonished at what he saw.

An enormous floating city was highly reminiscent of the mythical place Asgard. Still, in amazement, Uni turned his head to Lvle. "That's the place we're going? How are we even going to get In?"

Lvle smiled at Uni's amazement, " I'm pretty well known over there, so you don't have to worry about everything. What we do have to focus on is the journey there."

Listening to what Lvle was saying, he did see how far away the floating city was, so It would probably be a few hours or even a day before they would arrive at the city.

"Lvle, you said you've been there before? Is it as cool as it looks?"

"Uhh, well, you know."

Uni was confused by his answer, but from Uni could gather that something happened there.

"So, uh, when we arrive at the city, is there anything you want to do?" Uni recognized that he was trying to change the subject, but he still answered regardless.

"I'm not entirely sure, but I know I want to register as a hunter at some point."

"Hmm, interesting. What makes you want to become a hunter?"

"The money. Nothing else would entice me to fight monsters from other galaxies if it weren't that."

Lvle laughed at this response. "I'm sure many people would agree with you. Not that it's a problem, but the people who usually feel like this haven't experienced hunting before. Once you get your first kill, it feels nice."

Uni looked at Lvle strangely because he didn't understand. Lvle noticed this and commented on it. "You may not understand now, but come back to me after your first hunt. Tell me how you feel then."

Uni was still trying to understand but figured it'd be pointless until he experienced it.

They continued to walk, but it was silent, and Uni was getting uncomfortable, so he just asked random questions to Lvle.

"So, Lvle, how come you're all alone?"

"My family sent me on a mission that requires me to go to school in that city."

"Does that city have a name?"

"oh, it's called the city of Klosa. It is a world-renowned place for the people, things, and opportunities it gives someone. And also the Royal family lives there."

Uni was shocked. He looked back at the city and thought it was pretty spectacular from Lvle's description, but a part of him believed it might be too good to be true. Still, Uni was blown away by the city of Klosa, and he hadn't even been there yet

^Lvle said, Even the Royal family lives there. I wonder if it will be the same as I read in my books^

"Hey, Lvle is the princess, beautiful?"

Lvle laughed and said, "I guess you're gonna find out." Leaving Uni's imagination running wild.

^I wonder what the princess is doing right now^

-----

"Princess Anna, we have been searching for hours. Maybe we should call it a day."

Anna wasn't in a joyful mood. ^I know what I sensed. He was to be around here somewhere^

Although she kept telling herself this, they had been searching for a while with no trace of this person. They didn't even have a picture to identify him.

Losing hope, Anna decided to call it a day. "You're right. Let's go back."

Just as they were getting ready to go, one of the soldiers gave exciting news.

"We found something!" Turning back, Anna was full of excitement. "What did you find?"

"I think it was to carry his clothes, but I guess he dropped it."

"Do you think he might've fallen off the cliff?" The soldier's face showed he wasn't sure as he looked down the cliff.

"If he did fall off, he didn't die." Ann was confused, "What do you mean?"

"There's no person or even blood anywhere around there. So unless his blood is invisible, he isn't dead.

Anna let out a sigh of relief. ^I wonder what type of person this Uni guy is and what he's doing right now^
