Clovis and Kanaria saw the mayor off personally before retreating inside, preventing the reporters from surrounding them.
Both of them exchanged looks. A smile appeared on their faces as they gave a thumbs up to each other.
"Good work." Clovis felt relieved that they were able to get more money.
"Still, one month to become a Tier 2, huh? Right now, my evolution progress is already close to 80%, so it will only take another two weeks to become Tier 2."
"Don't worry. My progress is already two-thirds, so it should be fine... probably."
"Is that so?" Kanaria was once again shocked by Clovis's progress. She thought she had consumed a similar amount of essence as Clovis. Yet Clovis, whose evolution rate was only a fifth of hers, managed to keep up with her.
"Anyway, we should tell Jay and Melody about this... especially Melody."
"Melody?" Kanaria thought for a moment before her face became pale. "Don't tell me..."
Clovis nodded. "Yes. We're going to Stellar City right away!"
"Do you think Melody will agree to that idea? If we go there right now and go back one month later, she will be whining that she can't visit her younger brother, you know." Kanaria facepalmed.
"I'll leave it to you." Clovis patted Kanaria's shoulder and walked away, escaping from her.
Kanaria's eyebrows twitched as she suddenly grabbed Clovis's arm while staring at him with a darkened expression. "You won't escape, right?"
"..." Clovis gave a wry smile. "How about I give you something in exchange?"
Clovis had prepared an item for her from Another World Mall, so this would be a perfect chance to give it to her.
However, Kanaria shook her head. "Just promise me to do something later."@@@@
"That's..." Clovis scratched the back of his head. "Fine. As long as I can do it."
"I mean, you're going to be away for a much longer time. It's time for the baby bird to spread their wings and soar into the sky. I believe that all of you are able to reach the highest sky, so I'm not going to chain you down. Just go for it! If you need any help, just ask me."
Kanaria felt embarrassed. It was rare for Vania to behave like a mature mother, but when she did, she always moved the heart of her daughter. "Thank you, Mom. If it's not too much trouble for you, can you help us leave this city without getting caught by the reporters? It includes our luggage and transportation."
"It's not a big problem. I'll just call a few friends. South Gate, is it?"
"Yes."
"Alright." Vania hung up.
Kanaria let out a breath of relief before turning to Clovis. "So, what's the unique system this city has?"
Clovis handed the document while explaining, "The city might have a similar explorer association system, but the association in this place is giving a mission differently. Normally, the requester is an individual, and we'll only receive a reward, right?"
"In this city, there is the option of exchanging items or points. It must be because it is a bigger city, but it has a lot of explorers and a long lineage of explorer families. Instead of spending money, they are able to give an item for a reward."
"But we are trying to get more money, right?" Kanaria frowned. "So, this system is kind of useless."
"Not necessarily so."
"What do you mean?"
"This city might not need them, but can you say the same for the people in this city?"
"Ah!" Kanaria's eyes lit up. "Are you saying we're going to gather a lot of those items and sell them here?"
"Yes. During the break, we can go back to this city. I mean, the trip only takes about two to three hours by car. And Melody can go back to visit her brother, maybe once a week."
Kanaria looked annoyed as she spoke with an angry tone. "I hope you told me earlier before persuading Melody."
"My bad." Clovis gave a wry smile before changing the topic. "Anyway, there is one more interesting thing. This one."
Clovis pointed at the specific point of the document, which made Kanaria frown.
