Bab 8: Earl City
Everyone woke early, most of them were bit anxious, they have stayed for a whole week away from their families in an unknown environment.
After everyone had breakfast, they started packing tents and personal belongings.
At 10 AM
A bus was seen leaving from Ivan forest filled with teenagers and middle age couple.
It would take 6 hours of the journey before they will arrive Earl city.
The bus has to cross three villages before they reach Earl city. They stopped at one of them to buy some refreshments otherwise no stop had been made.
Xan in his last life had heard that low-level planets have some of the features which even some high-rank cultivators prefer. As very few to no commoners are able to cultivate due to negligible Qi present in the environment, they have spent their time developing the technology.
A legend has been spread in the Upper worlds, once some Blood cultivators wanted to massacre commoners in a remote planet for their evil practices. Unknown to them, one of the high-level cultivators has been staying on that planet. Rest is a no-brainer, they got massacred in reverse after he out found about it.
'I have always wanted to see what is so attractive in this planet.'
Soon, the bus reached the outskirt of Earl city. Xan was able to see High-rise buildings in the distance which represent the center of the city.
There is a total of four countries situated in Maros continent. Paladin country said to be founded by a group of Knights 800 years ago. Olino country, having the highest count of preserved ancient relics and historical sites dated up to 2500 years ago. Talikistan, the country with the most advanced agricultural technologies even Lamba's technology is no challenge to them in the field of agriculture. Lastly, Uruman country considered the most common among the other countries but developing in the field of business having a friendly relationship with Talikistan due to high import/export business deals.
Earl city is the capital city of the West state in Uruman country. The city acts as the central hub for the business companies having dealt with Talikistan. Talikistan is situated to the west of Uruman and sharing its boundary with West state.
Fishery, petroleum and salt factories to the north and east, with agricultural deals with Talikistan to the west, has developed the business culture of Uruman.
Matthew and Scott's family had been business partners for more than 25 years. Season Enterprises is one of the leading companies across the West state. Season Enterprises is the company jointly run by both the families.
Despite all the success in the business, there is a rule in the family. Children before the join college are not allowed to join the company. Only Warren has been allowed to enter the business after he completed his high school and entered college.
Taylor is the only child of Scott's family, so, after knowing her love towards Xan both families approved of it without any drama.
It is better to turn friendship into a family.
Earl city being the central hub for business is always running whether it is day or night.
Despite the hectic work environment of the city, the government wanted to preserve the beauty of the city. So, cleanliness is maintained and small shrubs are planted on the sideroads. Every community is mandatory to have at least a small sized garden.
The final destination of the bus was the Patterson High School.
The bus stopped in the parking lot of the school, where parents and guardians were already present to receive them.
Chesney started speaking after everyone has de-boarded the bus," I hope everyone enjoyed the camp and will now focus on their studies to get into best colleges."
"We will Teacher.", all of them replied.
"Classes will resume from the day after tomorrow. I hope every one of you will be present.", Chesney and Udolf after giving the necessary information started to leave as well.
All the students met with their parents and guardians.
Viola and Carolina were there to receive Xan, Luke, and Thompson.
Xan paused for a while not knowing how to receive the so-called mother. Xan has completely fused with Xander but still not able to accept the person who has lived for only a fraction of his age.
"Xander, Luke, Thomson, Taylor, I have been feeling so lonely without you all.", said Carolina while giving hug to all four of them.
Carolina was followed by Viola and a middle-aged woman who looks beautiful giving an authoritative vibe but keeping a charming smile.
The woman is Taylor's mother, Gabriella Viscot.
"Let's go. We will talk about the rest at home. We all have prepared your favorite dishes.", said Viola giving a heartful smile.
Xan thoughts were not here as he was sorting out his messy thoughts about his mother and father.
'If I have accepted Xander, I should also accept his family including his mother and father.'
'Now, I am just a mortal.'
'They have given birth to this body. They were Xander's parent.'
'Now, they are my parent.'
Xan has always been an open-minded person. Small problems like this can never stop him from progressing.
After a few minutes, they all reached a mansion covering around 2000 hectare of land.
Matthew family owned this mansion. Mansion doesn't look grand or majestic but giving simple and sophisticated feeling with perfect serene environment.
Xan liked this type of place a lot giving calm and peaceful vibes.
Everyone entered the house and were greeted by the maids and butler.
They were guided to their rooms to have a bath and new set of clothes. Their mothers were waiting in the hall for them while having some small chats.
"Do you think Xander has changed? I don't know why but I have a feeling that something is different about him.", asked Carolina.
"Yeah, he seemed a bit cold and stayed quiet during the whole journey.", said Gabriella.
"He has matured. I have a feeling that he is going to do something big.", said Viola showing a sweet and charming smile. She may have said those words to dispel their questions but feeling worried in her heart.
