As he walked, his attention was drawn to a particularly impressive building adorned with intricate carvings and glowing crystals. It stood out from the rest, emanating an aura of elegance and refinement. On the fourth floor of the building, a lavish room held the scene of a gathering.
Beside the window sat a captivating lady wearing a flowing red dress that highlighted her curves. Her outfit perfectly matched the luxurious surroundings. Two fluffy fox ears adorned her head, occasionally turning in response to the sounds outside. She held a wine glass in her delicate hand, and her lips formed a smile as she watched a specific person walking down the street in disheveled attire.
Next to her, two other gorgeous women were deep in conversation. Both exuded an aura of elegance and beauty that seemed almost otherworldly. Their attire was as exquisite as their presence, capturing the attention of everyone who passed by their table.
As Tanvir continued walking, he felt something causing him to instinctively glance toward the building. His eyes met the gaze of the red-dressed woman, and for a brief moment, time seemed to stand still.
Unknowingly his heart racing, And he felt odd. But then the one vibrated taking him out of his daze!. Realizing what just happened he quickly looked away and quicken his speed.
He very well know what just happened. He have been charmed once. And now again he fell for charm once again!.
The moment he looked away, The beautiful woman in red frowned her beautiful eyes. And lost in deep thoughts. Well her seductive arts which she was proud of failed.The other girls noticed it.
They exchanged knowing glances, sensing that something was amiss.The atmosphere around them shifted as their attention turned from their conversation to the retreating figure of Tanvir
The woman in the red dress slowly placed her wine glass down, her gaze fixed on the direction Tanvir had disappeared into. A mysterious smile curled her lips as she contemplated the encounter. Her companions exchanged puzzled looks, clearly curious about her thoughts.
"Lyra, is something the matter?" one of the women asked. Her eyes glowed as she started at the path. Even her long beautiful white hair glowed with dim light.
Lyra's smile widened, her eyes sparkling with a hint of amusement. "Interesting ," and looked at her friend Elis who asked her.
"You're talking about that young man?" The other woman asked.her gaze following Lyra's as she glanced in the direction Tanvir had gone.
Lyra looked at her. And unconsciously looked at her bust..which was heaven defying. And her tight clothes made it seem they were about to pop up soon.
" Hmph! Stop looking at them. You have them too look at yours. But before that tell me what's so interesting about that brat?" She pouted and covered her bosoms, Which made the situation even worse as the onlookers became more daze as they gazed at her bombastic size.
She turned around meeting their gaze. Her blondehair started glowing. The men's finally recovered and quickly looked away. Some looked at the beautiful ground. Some at the beautiful celling. Not daring to look at her anymore.
She calmed down, Her anger disappeared and she looked at lyra. Who was chuckling and gazing at her. But seeing she's serious now.
"Nothing much Freesia , A person with multiple elements, At least four of them".Lyra spoke with smile.
Both of them widen there eyes in disbelief and looked at her and then through the window.
Lyra didn't say anything she smiled and took a sip of her red wine gracefully.
Are you for real? Why such genius is still a mortal?. Elis spoke while still thinking of something else.
" Quickly speak up, If it's true we have to snatch him away fast" Freesia spoke up impatiently and waved her hand a invisible sound blocking barrier was made.
"I'm not sure yet,I sensed strange bloodline energy from him, He might also be a member of some powerful clan." Lyra spoke and took another sip of her favorite wine and put it down gracefully and tapped on the table. On the table a huge white page with intricate patterns appeared there was nothing except for a green dot and a moving red dot.
Elis and Freesia were already shocked hearing someone from the royal bloodline is here!. And now seeing the " Tracer" they were in disbelief.
Lyra chunkled seeing their reactions and continued to gaze at the red dot which was moving slowly.
--SLAM!
"Lyra, are you out of your freaking mind! Quickly turn it off before someone notices from his clan! What if he's from the royal bloodline circle!" Elis hissed, her normally composed demeanor replaced by a mix of concern and irritation. She shot a quick glance around the room to ensure that no one had been alerted by the loud noise.
Freesia leaned in, her eyes fixed on the table where the enchanted tracing map was displayed. "Sigh, when did you even buy this?. And are you sure about this?, What if he's really from a powerful family"
" heh it's fine, what if it's turns out he's just a mortal who is exploring the world? We can aquire a powerful disciple for our faction,I already told someone to keep an eye on him so the deed is already done"
She spoke with a smile.

Chapter 49 Begins
Tanvir heart continued to race as he quickened his pace through the streets, the memory of the red-dressed woman's gaze still fresh in his mind.
As he walked through the bustling streets, a creeping feeling of being watched came over him again. He quickened his speed.He quickened his speed through the crowded streets.
The more he looked at the streets, the more amazed he became. Every single person whether slender or more robust, carried an air of confidence along refined beautiful and handsome faces.Even individuals who appeared heavier looked confident. He realized the pride he had for his looks vanished Infront of them he has become a normal person. With a sigh he continued walking.
As he walked through the streets.He stumbled upon something he thought he wouldn't see. Yet, there it was, right in front of him—a slave market
" A slave market," he muttered under his breath, standing to the side,
Just by seeing how people were going in and out with chained individuals of various races, he knew very well what it was.
People were going in and out, buying or selling slaves in batches and transporting them in carriages.
As Tanvir witnessed the bustling activity of the slave market and the exchange of money and slaves, he began to wonder.
"Is this what people really want?" The novels he used to read all had this element: "The renowned slave market." Every single one of them had this.
"Is this what I really wanted?" Tanvir calmed his mind and looked at the slaves who were chained, fear visible on their faces.
He wasn't so pure as to say he didn't fantasize about having some beautiful slaves whom he would treat with care and love.
He continued to gaze at the slave market bustling with activities. He gave a deep sigh, Turning around he started walking.
As he continued walking he couldn't help but feel something is wrong and someone is watching him.
The streets started becoming more active and people can be seen rushing towards the same direction towards a huge black building with intricate details, despite being too far from the building he can still see the tip of building
He speed up and walked further,he noticed a vivid poster attached to a nearby lamppost. It depicted a majestic, winged bird soaring through the clouds, carrying a scroll in its talons, many people can be seen gazing at it and with excitement.
Unable to resist, he approached the poster, joining the growing crowd. The bold text underneath the image declared, "Ascend to New Heights: Azur Sect Academy Awaits.
We will offer the best rides to ensure your journey towards the Renowned Azur sect only for 10 low tire spirit stones!
By: Explorer Mercenaries.
" Woah a sect?.Should I try getting in? He thought as he gazed at the surroundings. People were so excited.
He couldn't help but overhear some of the conversations.
" Hey we should hurry up! The trails will start next week!"
" Be impatient junior sister let's go now"
" woah so it will start next week. And judging by the poster. It will take four days." He mused.
" Should I go?" He thought. He know how annoying the sect might be. It's the place geniuses arrives at. Thus for his growth it was a must to join. But the problem is, it will retain his freedom.
" Sigh, let's think about it tomorrow. Let's get some rest first" he muttered and with great struggle came out of the excited crowd.
Seeing so many people. Going towards the black building.
" Sect is the real deal I guess" muttering that he turned around at least crowded areas. And after searching for a bit. He finally found a restaurant.
He felt odd seeing the same old building.
Yes it was the same building from where that strange lady tried to charm him.
" Well she was on the upper floors. I will stay at the lower floor. And have my meal and get going" thinking that he entered the restaurant.
The guards stood tall. At the entrance. And glance at him. Tanvir thought they wouldn't let him in or something. But thankfully they did.
He sighed in relief. He can enter the restaurant. The moment he did. He can smell the aroma of testy dishes.
He gazed around. He realized finally why did let him enter. The lower floor's customers are most of them are poor people.Which he decided judging by there atairs.
Gazing at everywhere. He found a empty table finally.Without an delay he sequired the table and sat down.
And looked at the menu. And looked at the prices. Which was kinda cheap. Considering he has 10000 gold coins! which the guards gave him when he saved there young master.
The waiter was a burley man. Just looking at his face he had goosebumps. He quickly made the order. All of dishes was unknown to him. But not the catagory.
He ordered some bird meat along with a fruit juice called pyer. Soon his dishes arrived. Fortunately he didn't get weird things. The juice which tatsted like apple juice and the meat tasted like bef with a little bit touch of softness.
He finished the dish quicker that he intialy thought. He wanted to order another dish. As his tummy need more!.But didn't as...
" What if I meet that lady again or something?!" Saying that he stood up and payed the bill.
Putting both of his hands behind his head. Started heading towards the entrance carefreely.
" Hmm, let's find a good place to stay now" He muttered.
" Eh"
°____°
The woman in red dress standing right in front of the entrance giggled seeing his reaction. Surroundings her was two another eye catching ladies. And surroundings them where dumbfounded onlookers gazing at him with burning red eyes.
At that moment he realized. He should have listened to tummy. And should have taken another dish.
