Chapter 30 - Chapter 30. Entering Caer ys

As we dived we could contemplate the whole reef, like the one we left at the entrance of the abyss.

 It was teeming with life, thousands and tens of thousands, brightly colored fish, all swimming carefree, brightly colored corals and all kinds of underwater flora.

 Every now and then we could see one of the monstrous mantas transporting traders to the surface or taking them to the city, it had to be said that their swimming speed was really fast.

 We could certainly swim faster, but apart from losing our guide, we would also miss this beautiful scenery and we were not in a hurry either.

 Every so often, we would come across patrol cars parked along the blanket transport line we were driving along.

 Although serious, their eyes revealed their curiosity towards our appearance, which I thought was normal.

 The depth was already to the point where sunlight was barely perceptible, giving a wonderful and drastic change to the ocean floor.

 Both the flora and fauna around us possessed a precious quality, luminescence. Turning the black bottom of the ocean into a sea of bright, glowing colors.

 We were captivated by this beauty, though it was hidden behind our masks.

 In the distance, a large light source pulled us out of the spell of the landscape.

 We could contemplate high walls of a dark blue, almost imperceptible, in them dozens of drawings, which produced light, it was not necessary for Baltasar to tell me that mana ran through them, surely a defensive method of some kind.

 Several towers crowned the outer wall, in them there seemed to be a huge crystal.

 When I saw it, I could not help but recognize it, it was a crystal of purita, although one of much lower quality.

 Just as I saw it, it seemed that Balthazar also noticed it and did not hesitate to ask Gong.

 -Those crystals at the top of the towers, they have mana inside, do you know what they are and what their function is? - Balthazar's kindness and courtesy towards the Bull surprised me, although thinking about his personality, he will do anything to satisfy his hunger for magical knowledge.

 Gong didn't seem to mind his curiosity, I could even sense that he puffed out his chest with pride.

 -Friend, that's a great question, what you see there is a pure mana crystal, they are the greatest source of mana for the city, they are the crown jewels of our people, extremely rare and difficult to obtain, according to the stories they only exist in the dragon veins, which provide mana to the world. For Balthazar that didn't seem to be enough and he didn't stop asking questions until he found out everything the poor unwary Bull knew.

 After a couple of hours of travel, from the bridge, at last, we arrived at the city of the little emperatrix.

 When we arrived at the gate, the guards stopped us, in this case, there was variety again, but the ones that surprised me the most were a race of bird men, these were hybrids with some kind of fish, giving a strange shape.

 With Gong as our guide, we had no problem entering the city, but 4 other Bulls joined Gong as escorts.

 When we were about to cross the gate we realized something amazing, the whole city was inside a bubble, being a dry and airy place.

 

 Con un toque de nerviosismo, cruce la membrana de la pompa, así entrando a la rumoreada ciudad de los sirenoides.

 Cuando entré, los ojos se me abrieron como platos.

 Ante mí una enorme calle principal, toda repleta de alboroto, decenas de especies diferentes, vendiendo y comprando. Hombres, mujeres y niños, paseando.

 Soldados bien armados dando sus vueltas rudimentarias, jóvenes teniendo citas, al lado de una enorme fuente, la cual era una enorme estatura de una sirena con una balanza en la mano derecha y una fruta en la izquierda.

 Las casas eran hermosas, todas con el estilo sirenoide, el cual consistía en mármol con decorados en azurita, los tejados, todos con pequeñas placas de mármol y azurita, siendo el estilo Tudor, como el prioritario.

 El azul oscuro, el blanco y el azul claro y brillante, estos eran los colores característicos de Caer ys, dándole un enfoque precioso en el oscuro océano.

 Ya que habíamos cruzado la burbuja, volvimos a nuestra forma terrestre y avise de entrar en formación.

 Baltasar en nuestro viaje se detuvo en la bajada por un momento y mientras esperábamos dispuso de la formación de teletransporte en un recoveco.

 Since we were now in a foreign territory and we did not know what our reception would be, it was time and place to put our emergency plan into practice.

 Being the case, each one took his position, which seen from above was a perfect decahedron, being me, the eleventh, the center and nucleus of the formation.

 At that instant, the Bull looked at us strangely, he seemed to think they were overprotecting me, but said nothing about it.

 While I was in a slight epiphany, the feeling of controlling and bending space was ecstatic, when I began to control the mana of my companions, it was as if I could find the spot left by Balthazar, even a sea of stars away, simply intoxicating.

 Calmly, but without pause we began to advance towards the castle, people were staring at us, but as in previous situations, this was expected.

 Imagine that, in your city, someone appears in modern clothes, while you are wearing ancient clothes, while you are wearing leather armor, he is wearing full body armor.

 You would simply be amazed and would not look away, although we did not mind at all or so I believe with respect to my subjects.
