When Raijin has awakened the 3rd Stage of [All Fiction] while Genzo and Zenith are still traveling in the Southeast
Zenith
"Hey Genzo, should we help him? It looks like he's struggling to fight a mere bird"
Genzo
"Nah, he can do it alone. I trust in his abilities"
Zenith
"Ok if you say so..."
The two of them are almost at the East Continent Ragąhėri Kingdom
After taking many steps, they arrived in the Ragąhėri Kingdom, The Kingdom of Mages.
Zenith
"Is it really necessary to walk instead of teleporting?"
Genzo
"I need to know more about the places of your world, so it is."
As usual, the Kingdom also has strong guards. So Genzo has some plans to think to enter the Kingdom without causing problems.
Genzo
"We will just use stealth, so we can't sauce such a scene in this place"
Meanwhile, Zenith is bored because of his carefulness, he wants to cause chaos
So both of them successfully entered the Kingdom without noticing them.
Both of them is seeing such a poor state Kingdom
Genzo
"Hmm, is this the cause of the war many years ago?"
Zenith
"This Kingdom was in a good state when I was visiting here, I am curious why the Kingdom fall into ruins"
Genzo
"Let's ask the people around here"
When Genzo calmly approached the woman, she run away with her child
Genzo
"What was that? That's unusual to be afraid of me"
Zenith
"You're already terrifying despite being overpowered, the people run away too when I approached them without any threats"
Genzo is thinking something is definitely wrong in this Kingdom so he goes on to investigate
Zenith
"It's pretty rare to see someone as omnipotent as you not using any powers at all, so what are your intentions?"
Genzo
"It's just that it's boring to use my powers and find out the situation quickly, I want to challenge myself, that's all"
Zenith still has many questions about him but he will save those questions later after they get back to Earth.
The Ragąhėri Kingdom is in a really poor state where the buildings are not in good condition and the residents are dirty like they haven't changed clothes for months now.
Zenith
"Hey, I see an old man sitting peacefully"
Zenith
"Let's go ask him what happened"
So they both approached the old man in a calm manner so they won't be recognized as bad guys.
Old man
"Ho Ho, who do we have here..."
"Are you both by any chance outsiders?"
Genzo
"Yes, you're correct about that and we would want to know what happened to this Kingdom and why it fell into this state?"
Old man
"Oh, this Kingdom has met its end because of the corruption of the Nobles, and the King was assassinated, no one knows who hired an assassin to kill the righteous king. So the Nobles have abandoned this Kingdom and it's no longer the Kingdom of Mages you used to know."
Zenith
"Wait so, what about the guards outside?"
Old man
"Oh, that? It was an illusion cast on the statues. It seems like you got tricked and had to use stealth when it's lifeless to begin with."
Genzo laughs
"This is the first time I got tricked by an illusion spell, what strong mages you have here!"
Old man
"It's been there since this Kingdom was abandoned, the mages are not living here anymore and moved somewhere else."
Zenith
"How could they just abandon a successful Kingdom despite having many King candidates?"
Old man
"Because they are afraid of being assassinated next, so they gave up."
"I'm Lawson Bavostok by the way, may I have your names?"
Zenith
"I am Zenith and this guy is Genzo"
Lawson
"Are there any more questions you want to ask?"
Genzo
"There are no more, thanks for telling us"
Lawson
"No problem, I wanted to talk with someone because all the people here are too afraid that they barely talk to someone. So where are you two going next?"
Genzo
"We're heading to the Northern Continent, Jaīpeinčo Empire"
Zenith
"Wait, you didn't tell me we were going there"
Genzo smiles filled with excitement
"Because of your story that you are living there in peace and they have cultural style"
So both of them left the Kingdom after gaining information about the Ragąhėri Kingdom.
Lawson waved his hand to say goodbye
"Have a safe trip"
But the moment they left the Kingdom, Lawson smiled with a suspicious face
"What a fool"
Genzo knew he was lying back there, he wanted to kill him but not today.
Zenith
"Hey Genzo, you knew he was lying right?"
Genzo
"Yeah but let's just let him live because he's the mastermind behind all of that."
Zenith with a confused face
"Wait, he was? How come I didn't know that?"
Genzo
"Because you're weak"
Zenith with an angry expression
"Is that an insult or something?"
Genzo laughs
"Yeah, why?"
Zenith
"Damn you!"
The both of them are walking in the Central Continent, a deserted Continent and very hot radiation up to 49°C
Zenith
"Ugh, I can literally feel the heat of the sun, I can't believe there are 3 suns, to begin with"
Genzo
"Put a radiation barrier around your body, can't you do it?"
Zenith
"You know, I'm not that omnipotent as you, you damn bastard"
Genzo
"Well then, we just have to run to go there then"
Zenith
"Bruh, you finally decided to run"
While both of them are running 5000kmp/h, the "Desert Worm King" suddenly attacks them but it can't catch up to their speed so they didn't notice.
After walking 4,897km, they finally arrived in the Jaīpeinčo Empire. Just as in Zenith's story, the Empire is indeed a cultural place and a good environment. But Genzo is asking why it looks like Japan in his thoughts.
Genzo
"Wow, never thought I would see another clean place"
Zenith
"Good to be home again"
Genzo
"Hey, we won't be using any stealth in this Empire right?"
Zenith with a smile
"Yes as long as you're good."
But both of them got rejected because they don't have any identification cards... So Genzo used stealth again.
A cultural Empire, fresh environment, lively people, and Swordsman with a mask?
Genzo
"Is that a Swordsman?"
Zenith
"No, that's called Samurai. They have pretty cool armor with a terrifying mask"
"The Samurai here have unique swordsmanship techniques which the Wamòplēuįr Swordsmen can't make a mess of, they are incredibly fast and they have their own mana which they called it "Ki", they can enhance their physical strength with Ki unlike the other 3 Kingdoms that can only release mana outside."
Genzo
"That's cool! I've never heard of that word before!"
Zenith's thoughts "Didn't expect this guy would even be surprised by that"
Random Stranger having a welcoming expression
"部外者の方,こんにちは! あなたをこの帝国に導いたのは何ですか?"
(Hello outsiders! What brought you to this Empire?)
Both of them got confused because they don't understand what it was saying
Genzo
"Why are you confused? Didn't you say you lived here?"
Zenith
"It's just that I only talked to people who know English... So I don't know how to speak Jaipaneko"
Genzo
"Seriously though, this language is clearly Japanese. I don't know why every world has the same languages..."
Random Stranger
"二人で何について話しているのですか? ああ,部外者には理解できないことを忘れていましたジャイペインコ"
(What are you two talking about? Oh, I forgot that outsiders can't understand Jaipaneko)
"My bad folks, I thought you two knows how to speak Jaipaneko."
Genzo
"Oh, he spoke English..."
Rengoku
"Allow me to introduce myself, I am Rengoku, and sorry for making you two confused"
Zenith
"I'm Zenith and this guy is Genzo"
Genzo's thoughts with a lame face "literally the same sentence as before"
Genzo
"Anyways, why is this Empire have a different language compared to the other 2 Kingdoms?"
Zenith
"Oh, you mean that? Their language is easy to understand so you just thought it was English, but the East is Rajohome, the South is Sharanggi, but the Western language Wanoplinam is different compared to them."
Genzo
"Bruh the names is too complicated"
Rengoku
"So, what brings you here in this Empire?"
Genzo
"Oh, we're here to visit and explore things here."
Genzo making such a suspicious face
"Anyways, who's the King of the Empire?"
Zenith with a worried face
"He's planning to do something bad again just to gain information... It's literally written all over his face"
Rengoku
"Oh you mean the Shogun?"
Genzo
"Shogun?"
Rengoku
"Yeah, we call him Shogun instead of King. He is Izagani Yamamoto, the 9th Generation Shogun. As you know, the Imperial Palace is right over there, a big and more stylish palace than all of the palaces here."
Genzo
"Oh thanks, anyways are you a food vendor?"
Rengoku
"Yes, are you going to buy my product?"
Zenith whispers Genzo
"Idiot, we don't have any money! How are we going to buy something here?"
Genzo with a sad face
"Oh, I forgot about that. We don't have money right now, sorry."
Rengoku
"Oh I'll give you one for free for having a nice talk with me"
Genzo
"Are you sure without me paying anything?"
Rengoku
"Yeah it's fine, you can have it"
After that, Genzo was so happy that he got Sushi for free and he was feeling delighted by the Empire's food although the food also exists on Earth too but he never got a chance to explore Japan.
Zenith
"So what are we going to do here?"
Genzo with a demonic smile
"What else?~ We're intruding in the Imperial Palace"
Zenith is now worried for the Shogun that he is about to be beaten up for information...
