The Akatsuki kingdom was fundamentally different from the empire. Even the royal castle was different and built on top of a cliff.
It was only built in the traditional style of slopes that Elysia had seen in the other world, but it was also made up of fire-resistant material.
"Don't look too intimidated right now. We are relatives so this is also your culture."
Chrome took them inside the castle. The guards bowed to them as they passed through the corridors. Their whole future screamed 'different' to Elysia.
It was her first trip to any other nation in this world so it was a little nerve-wracking. Especially when the guards were looking at her with nervous but cautious eyes.
"Don't look so taken aback. Just look forward for now and don't let the stares get to you. Hold your head up so that it shows that you are royalty."
Whatever Chrome was saying was giving over Elysia's head. And she did not care much about showing her confidence as well.
