Their journey to the Vronti castle is actually quite uneventful and there is actually a shortcut from the lake which made their journey faster.
Chatur changed his appearance when they are nearby and he did so after changing into a human form. He changed into a human with a face that could easily get lost in a crowd. He even made Sam and Arman change clothes and created disguises.
But when they entered the Vronti castle, they didn’t have to wait for anyone or inform an attendant. They directly strolled into a room with no one stopping them.
As for the reason, the Vronti castle doesn’t welco the people from Nagin castle. They are extrely aversive to them and the main reason stemd from the rivalry of the Nagas.
The Vronti Planet is also controlled by both Yaksha and Nagas. There are few humans. But the Nagas of this planet don’t like the Nagas of the Nagin planet because of their bloodline variation.
Now it is like the racism of the modern earth. Racism based on skin tone, but where the skin is replaced by scales.
The planet is also a bit different as they have extre lightning energy and tal energy all over the place. There are many mines to the point there is no normal vegetation. Even the trees and forests here are of tal and they look great for the view, not so for the food and such.
The conflict between the two unbalanced natural elents, the tal and lightning clash regularly making it hard for them to live there.
But that also gave them so advantages that are not easily obtained in any other place. For starters, the gravity of this place is higher and this made these people stronger than normal. They have a greater tendency to activate warrior bodies and there are many people with warrior constitutions.
And due to the active tal essence and the lightning essence all over, it is a great place for cultivating both elents and most of them awaken as Warrior mages of either one of those elents or even both of those elents.
Even though they don’t have as many resources as the rest of the planets when considering other elents, they have too many in their own elents that made them extrely powerful.
As for the reason the Nagas of the Vronti planet do not like the Nagas of the Nagin planet, it is very simple.
It was said that the Nagas of Vronti planet are once part of the Nagin empire, but were chased away from that planet and thrown into the Vronti Planet as prisoners.
It was done so because ancestors of both races ascended to greater heights and fought for superiority. Their side lost but didn’t seem to honor a bet, so this ancestor got pissed and tore open a space tunnel and threw them all into that planet.
Even though it is a little more than a myth in the Nagin, the Vronti believe this as an exaggerated fact.
As for Yaksha, they have nothing against others.
Currently, they are eting a Yaksha of the Vronti.
He didn’t wear anything on his upper half as he showed off his physique with all the blue electric tattoos along with blue tallic tattoos.
He was blessed with both of them and the tattoos are extrely dense for a nascent.
"Hey, Chatur. It has been a long ti since we t."
He greeted chatur casually and gestured all three of them to take a seat.
"I have been busy. I brought soone to et you. He wants to talk a business deal."
Chatur replied and went on to introduce Sam and Arman. Apparently, the disguise is only for the others to ignore them. This guy already knows Chatur’s real identity and they seed to be pretty close. Sam could see how casual this guy is. His na is praneeth and he is already talking to them as if they are friends for the past seven lives.
"So, what kind of business do you want to discuss? I am open to talk about any business except for a few."
"I want to buy sothing special from your planet. But I don’t know if you have authority to sell it."
"Don’t worry about that. There are not many things I couldn’t sell. You can na what you want. I can sell tals, elental stones, special herbs, fruits, even fruit trees. Apart from that I even have a business of so special beasts and even exotic water creatures of the Vronti."
"They all sounds great, but first I want to buy a mushroom."
Sam said with a smile.
Praneeth’s smile stiffened a bit and then his grin beca bigger.
"If you are saying what I think you are saying, maybe you ca to the right person. Only I have authority to give access to that thing."
"If you think I am talking about Thousand lightning mushroom, then yes, you might be the right person."
"But you do know that it is extrely valuable right? It cannot be bought with money easily."
"Of course, I am not just paying with money. What do you want?"
"The thousand lightning mushroom is difficult to obtain. But only for others, for it is easy and in fact, I already have one. It is to improve my cultivation and foundation. Even the transcendent stage cultivators can take it. As for , if I take it in small parts and slowly digest it, I can easily beco a pre-transcendent stage cultivator and even reach the second stage directly. So, it is hard to put a price tag on it.
But there is a way for you to exchange it with sothing of equivalent value."
"So, what would that be?"
"I heard you are quite fast, I want you to obtain a fruit for , but that fruit is not of the sa value as the mushroom. It is quite cheaper. So, I want three of them plus, I want your help in capturing a beast. I want you to help ta it. If you can do that, I will give you the mushroom.
If you can obtain anything from the expedition, you can keep it."
Sam looked at him and thought for a mont before saying.
"Any other alternatives?"
"I can’t say I don’t have any. But only if there no hope at all."
"Then I would agree. When do we leave?"
"In two days, we will et at the Origin castle at dawn."
Sam nodded and left along with Arman and Chatur.
They didn’t go back to the lake imdiately. Due to the appearance of Elite ten in the dinsion, the Union sect once again started the war.
But this ti, they are not as aggressive and even their arrangents are quite ticulous and that is due to one of the elite ten’s arrangents. He is called the Battle Erudite. Even though, Sam felt that the title is not so deserving it is not too far off.
He is good at planning battle formations and such.
He has astute planning and a delicate understanding of the situation and he is not even attacking the Nagin castle directly.
He is attacking it bit by bit.
The Nagin castle has a very large disadvantage in terms of its bases and resource points. They are spread too thin and too wide. They couldn’t send the reinforcents imdiately.
Currently, they are attacking a castle of Nagin planet from a different direction and attacked another resource point a bit far away from that castle.
There is another base of Nagin castle in the middle, they are now stuck between two choices, but when they send reinforcent to either one of them, that very base would be vulnerable and the Union sect has stationed so troops nearby.
So, currently, the union sect battling on two fronts and waiting out on one.
On top of that six of the elite ten are placed in pairs at these three places. They are waiting for Sam or other elites that appeared that could tilt the scales of the battle, they are not going to directly participate in the battle.
But what they don’t know is neither Sam’s nor the elites that ca has the war as their first priority. They all have their own tasks to complete.
After observing the situation for a bit, Sam decided to ddle in one of the battle-fields.
If he fought with these elites, he is pretty sure that they would use those shadow tokens. But Sam has a chance now as Arman is with him. He could figure out a way to hold off at least one of them if they wanted to escape by using their teamwork.
So, after scouting a bit, they finally found the place where the wind fiend is and decided to make their move there.
He already has so personal business with that guy as he escaped after ambushing. So, Sam figured that it is also a chance for him to repay the favor.
He could also understand the mindset of these guys as he didn’t expect them to be this passive after Night Charm’s disappearance.
