Xander. The capital of the kingdom of Viv.

Established a long, long time ago, this kingdom was older than even the empire, the largest power of the western continent.

The kingdom was the straight in the far past, it used to be the best place where the most talented people had gathered and was operated by some of the greatest minds that had ever lived, but then, a dragon ran rampant on the west and broke the entire land into pieces.

“Oho?”

It quite genuinely broke the continent and various rulers of that time, who were divided by the separated lands, waged war against one another to get as much land to incorporate into their own territories.

The empire was established back then, and then it continued existing along with the rest of the nations, as well as the kingdom that was left on the continent.

“Next~.”

Alex was back in the kingdom’s capital after a long time.

She started her actual journey here, in this very city, and after doing all kinds of amazing things in this fun place, she went out to see the great world that existed all around them in this vast world.

She traveled, she stayed in certain places, she fought in wars, she gained strength, she explored places, she met people and she did some favors to some acquaintances.

She made friends, but above all that… she lived a free life here that she had not lived in the real world out there.

‘She has a long line of customers like the rumors said.’

She remembered her past on this street where Olive was selling her goods right now. She thought back to the days when she too was a newbie.

There were many fun things that she had done in this kingdom, in this city. She fought her first big scale battle in this very city for the first time around nine years ago.

‘Fun times…’

She thought back to a lot of things, to a lot of events, to a lot of good memories and a few bad ones that she didn’t want to remember.

‘Well…’

But, all of that had happened a long time ago.

The world was a different place from what it used to be back then and the kind of changes that the world had faced due to her actions were great as well.

A lot of things happened because of her, and though she did not have the kind of power that she used to, she knew a lot more things were going to happen because of her going forward as well.

And, she knew all of this was going to start from this point on.

“Shall we go greet her, master?”

She had left Misha and Rin and Az and Miu at the in and had come to the shopping street to get Olive.

They arrived in the capital just a few hours ago so the rest of the crew was sleeping while she had come out to get her friend with her Servant- Victor.

Unlike Sera who was a small white bird, this person was a butler. A classic butler with a plain white beard and white hair without any glasses. His red eyes reflected the blue sky above them.

“Yeah, let’s go.”

She had received the second key from the forest of Nozama so now this was time for them to go and get the third key before they plan the large-scale raid into the blank zone that had never been conquered until now.

She had contacted the people that she knew could help her, as well as people that were strong enough to go against the monsters that were present there without attracting too much attention.

She could call a few of the high rankers but that would be too much for a small thing like a forest full of monsters.

Those people were doing bigger quests in some important parts of the world so disturbing them when she knew they might not even be able to come there at her call was not like her.

She knew she could save her baby from that place with a small force and she was going to do that.

A lot of things were on the line so before he figured out a way to get out of there, she knew she would have to work faster to get what she needed and move to the bigger things.

And now that the most important part of the game was done and she had the second key in her hands, she knew she wouldn’t have to worry about the third one that much.

“Hey there, pretty Miss.”

Alex skipped the line and wet straight to the corner, attracting attention of everyone standing in the line as well as the people who had stalls and shops around her as well.

This was a famous stop, everyone knew the famous newbie in the city now.

The talk of her goods had already spread all around the kingdom and people were coming here just to stand in the line or to get something from her that the other people could not.

Many scouts form the big guilds were in the line right now, many servants of the nobles from all around the kingdom were standing in this line, and there were people here who, unknown to many others, were on the rankings and were famous.

“Hmm? Hey! How many times do I have to repeat the rule-… oh! Hey there~!”

Olive didn’t realize who this was at first since Victor, the big old butler, was with her, but she realized it in a moment and a bright smile appeared on her face.

“You said you’d need a few more days~! You’re early this time unlike your habit.”

Olive was excited to see her friend for the first time in the game… however, it was business hours right now.

“Come in here. Help me with the order~.”

It was better to finish the work for the day and then chat.

Find your next adventure on empire

“Oh, sure.”

And Alex didn’t really have anything better to do anyway so she went inside the stall that had now gotten much better however, there was now a blank sign on the name area of the shop.

She didn’t really want to be limited to just this place even though her popularity was increasing rapidly.

She wanted to go and try the other big cities, then the empire, the Theocracy, then the other continents as well.

Being a traveling merchant- a traveling baker to be precise, was not a bad idea either.

“We are going to have two places today, everyone! But the line will remain the same!” The announcement was made.

But the people were not happy to hear this.

It just meant everything would be sold out sooner, so… a new disappointment spread throughout the long line.
