Ning got himself a room in a hotel in the commercial district, which wasn't very different from the room back in the City of beginnings.
It was a tall building, and Ning stood before the window to look at the capital city. People moved in the streets like a colony of ants. The sheer number of people in that one place was baffling.
It reminded Ning of those few cities in the Southern continent of Kumia, where they were so packed that they had to make buildings that went sky high just to accommodate them.
He then looked into the horizon and could see a massive black building that towered over every other building. It stood somewhere outside of the government district in the west and was so massive that Ning didn't even need to think twice to realize what it was.
"So that's the Aether Tower huh? Are these folks so good that they are even sought after by the royal palace?" he thought.
