Chapter 969 - Sight To Behold

It was a clear day, so Rean could see really far away. However, it was still impossible to see the end of the city. 'This city might very well be as big as the Sasamil Empire's capital, which was already enormous with it spanning 50 kilometers. No, perhaps it's even bigger!'

Even Kentucky couldn't see its ends either. "What an enormous city. It should span what? A hundred kilometers? No, definitely more! How could Senior Cynthia say this was a small city?"

Rean then remembered something, telling Kentucky, "Well, she said that Cosec was small when compared to that Huvol City she had been in before. Perhaps Cosec isn't really small. It's just that Huvol is even more ridiculous."

Without wasting time, Kentucky descended from the skies to ask Cynthia exactly that.

"Hmm? If Cosec is a big city in general when not considering Huvol?" Cynthia couldn't help but laugh again. "Hahaha! No way! Huvol itself is just an average-sized city to start with.. Cosec would be...let me see...a big city between the small ones...I guess? From its two furthest extremities, the gap is only 220 kilometers or something."

"Th-Then...how big is Huvol? No, better than that, how big would a really big city be?" Sure enough, Rean's group couldn't help but ask that question.

"I see...it seems like the cities back in your region aren't as big as ours." Well, Cynthia wasn't wrong. It's just that she thought that they were still from somewhere in the Realm of Gods. "Anyways, I'm not too sure how big Huvol is, but it's definitely more than double of Cosec's size. As for a real big city, I think I'll take Kamos's Royal Capital as an example, then. I visited it once, and as far as I know, it's around 1300 kilometers in diameter, not counting the area outside the city walls, of course."

Rean found it ridiculous. "How the hell do you guys even go around in cities like that? A person might live their entire life without ever going to the other side of the city they're born in like that."

Cynthia shrugged her shoulders, telling them the obvious, "How else? All cities have teleport formations all around to be used. If you want to use them, just select the right one according to the destination, and that's about it."

Roan couldn't help but ask, "What about the people who can't afford the teleports?" Even back in Sasamil Capital, which was obviously much smaller, the twins had to pay to use the teleport formations to move around.

"Afford the teleports? Could it be that the cities back in your home charged to use the city's teleport formations?" Cynthia asked with a surprised expression.

Rean, Roan, Kentucky, and Celis looked at each other before nodding.

Cynthia felt somewhat sad for the residents of the twins' home. "Sigh...your city lords were quite the mercenaries, then. As far as I know, you don't need to pay for any of the teleport formations in any of the cities in the Yukirrom Region. Unless, of course, you're planning to teleport from one city to another. In that case, the environment's Divine Energy isn't enough to teleport you over, so the city charges you with Divine Stones."

Cynthia continued, "Just so you know, there are really thousands of teleport formations everywhere in Cosec, and so is the case in other cities. It isn't anything uncommon for a person to work on the other side of a city by simply using those formations. The Divine Energy in the air is more than enough to keep them working all day and night. In fact, it would be disastrous for a city to charge for them as the city itself needs constant movement for its own businesses."

Rean, as the only Formation Master in the group, then asked something else. "What about the maintenance of those formations? Isn't it expensive to keep?"

Cynthia pondered over the question for a bit before saying, "Well, I'm not a Formation Master. However, I know teleport formations of that level aren't worth a single Divine Stone, so it's really cheap to maintain. Not to mention that they rarely show problems even after years of constant use. Of course, I know that because our sect uses quite a few of them. The Formation Masters there rarely have to touch them. After all, we aren't even close to having as many people as the city has."

Rean could only imagine how much higher the quality of the formations in the Realm of Gods were compared to the Realm of Mortals. "I'm already getting excited just thinking about the formations of this place."

Kentucky became curious about something else, though. "Then... how many people live in the city? Also, how many races?"

Cynthia shook her head. "How would I know? Do you think someone would stop to count? Well, I guess we should have some two to three million people here. As for races? Humans, Guras, Junqas, Lakures, Vrados...take your pick. You'll probably find them while walking through the city. There should be a few thousand of them, I guess? Just look at our caravan. Here alone, we have twenty-two different sentient races."

Cynthia also added, "Of course, we're only talking about pure bloodlines. If you count the mixed-bloods, it should count for at least half of the city. If you try to put them into a specific race, you'll just go crazy. After all, we're all variations and mutations of the same initial race. Pretty much any race can have kids with another, and most of them won't care as long as they like each other. Well, at least not those with low positions within their own bloodlines. You will find those who are proud of what they are and won't mix their blood with others."

Rean's group nodded after hearing that. They came to the conclusion that Lakures and Zasfins were variations of humans a long time ago, even before leaving Sunkan Planet. Cynthia's words just confirmed that. They had noticed it ever since they joined the caravan. Rean had even talked with the Lakure race guys to know a little more about them but simply found that they didn't consider themselves anything different. 'The Realm of Gods is really a sight to behold.'
