"You don't have enough information to confirm that, but I guess there is no point in denying it," Rain replied. "My turn now, who are you? You must be someone important, Considering the reaction of the monsters."

"You attacked me without knowing my identity. Do you expect that I will believe in that?" Seadir asked.

"You were just the easiest and closest to capture, that was all," Rain explained. "My guess is that you are the son of the sea king or something and the person who was captured the last time was someone close to your family, am I right?"

"... Forgive his manners, but feel people know the sea emperor's name and the fact that his kids inherit a part of his name, Branden said. "We already know that you are Seadir, son of Seadrei."

"What about it? That changes nothing," Seadir declared. "I am just one of many sons he has. You will only receive his anger by killing me."

"Who was talking about killing? We were just sharing information," Rain shrugged. "Doing diplomatic work must be exhausting."

Rain was eager to learn more about Seadir, Sirenus, and Coraline. Still, it soon became apparent that they weren't the talkative type. Following Rain's previous thoughts, the conversation fell into an uneasy silence. Among the trio, Seadir was the sole participant in the discussion. At the same time, Sirenus and Coraline remained watchful and ready to react if the need arose.

Seadir seemed to be the more talkative of the group. In contrast, Sirenus and Coraline appeared to be reserved individuals who didn't readily engage in conversation. Their focus was primarily on their mission, and their alertness suggested they were prepared to respond swiftly to any potential threats or changes in the situation, including their current guides.

Rain's rapid flight brought the group to Teria by noon the next day. They were starting to believe that their goal of crossing the entire country within a week was achievable. However, there was a challenge: entering the city in the middle of the day was not a good idea.

So, they opted to make camp in a hidden spot near the city. Rain used his magic to create a small depression in the ground, allowing them to stay out of sight as they rested and waited for the cover of nightfall to approach Teria City.

"It has been a while since I camped like this," Lorene said while looking around. "I guess this isn't bad now and then."

"Please, focus on the task at hand," Branden said. "We don't have time to waste relaxing when so much is at stake here."

"Relaxing a bit is important. If you get tense for too long, you might miss some things thanks to the exhaustion," Rain said and then sat down and closed his eyes to rest his body."

Surprisingly enough, despite spending over a day away from the ocean, Seadir and his companions still appeared to be in good condition. This was quite unusual, as most people were aware that sea folk typically grew weaker and more tired when out of the water for over a day, even more so when they couldn't smell the ocean.

It seemed that Rain's earlier assumptions about their unique tools were accurate.

Understanding that they needed to rest, Seadir and his companions also took the opportunity to relax. However, they remained cautious, keeping their guard up at all times. To ensure their safety, they established a rotating watch, with one of them staying alert with their eyes open while the others rested.

This demonstrated their commitment to the mission and their readiness to respond to any potential threats.

After resting for around six hours, the group moved to the city, and once again, they found their informant in a tavern. However, he also told them that he didn't find anything out of the norm.

"... All right, thanks for your hard work; you can return now," Branden said after thinking for a while.

The informant nodded and then left the area, and Branden looked at Rain, and the same nodded. Things were getting quite difficult… It wasn't like they were expecting to find traces of the culprits so soon, but there was something else bothering them.

"Did you realize it?" Branden asked. "They looked respectful enough, but there was something odd about the two informants."

"What exactly was odd?" Rain asked while he used his magic to sense the vibrations on the ground.

"I can't tell for sure, it is just a feeling," Branden said.

"A feeling that makes you think that your informants are no longer working for you?" Rain asked. "I imagined that you would only select truly loyal people to do that kind of job, but as expected… Everyone has their own price."

Rain suddenly left the dark alley by using Impulse, and then he caught the informant listening to their conversation. Rain immediately grabbed his head by the mouth to stop him from moving, and when he raised him, the guy tried to grab a knife on his waist.

Rain stopped his hand and broke it at the same time… still, the informant used the other hand at the same time to throw that familiar bomb at Rain… the anti magic bombs…

"... Don't kill him, Rain," Branden said in a cold tone. "We need to gather more information in one way or the other… this air… I can't control my magic."

The informant's eyes widened in surprise when he noticed that Rain hadn't weakened, despite the anti-magic bombs' effects. This discovery left him shocked and fearful, making him wonder how Rain had managed to maintain his magical abilities despite the countermeasures. He wasn't using them, naturally.
