Leave Me Alone, Heroines!

109 Chapter 109

After leaving the airport, the duo along with other people that came along with Leislet specifically for the convention and all the activities that she will join settled down in one of the bigger hotels in the city.

There were already hundreds of people that came to the Mystic soul Convention in the first few minutes since the city officially opened the doors for contestants and visitors.

After that, they both left the hotel to roam the city for some time before the Convention's ceremony that announces the start of the convention. It will be held in the biggest arena which was located in the middle of the city on a hill that made it visible basically from every part of the city.

This arena was the biggest in the world as it could fit almost 800000 people. It was so huge that it took up 15% of the city's total size.

"We have 2 hours before the ceremony starts? What do you want to do?" Leislet asked.

"I wanted to check the 'First Day' auction house in the western part of the city. The booklet says that it will be open before the ceremony." He said as he read a small booklet that the airport gave him for more information about the convention.

"Hmm, that seems interesting, but I can't join you. You can go alone and we can meet right here after you finish."

Then, they separated and went on their way. Leislet seemed to have some important things to do because of her position. She was the busiest person Acht had ever seen. Spending a few days without sleeping was a normal occurrence for her.

"Hmm, what's this?" He was flipping through the booklet and he saw something very odd yet also interesting.

"'Soul Sky ride'. Try the best experience of flying on top of a 'Sky Griffon'. It's one of the most popular Mystic Soul City's attractions…" He read the words quietly while checking the pictures attached to the advertisement.

It seemed that this city somehow tamed Sky Griffons and made them a means of transport and also a tourist attraction for visitors. Acht would be lying if he said he wasn't interested so he checked the location of the closest one and went directly towards it.

The place that he ended up in front of was a big, open station that seemed to be bustling with people to the brim. Acht was almost about to give up but then he remembered something.

'Leislet gave me this pass but I don't know if it will help much.' He thought as he pulled out a silver card with some aesthetic engravings on it.

It was a royalty pass card that Leislet got for being a person of very high status. It basically gave her and any holder of this card many perks that normal people don't have.

One of them is having priority in using any kind of facility in the city over other people. So, to try it out, he went inside the open station.

The first thing that welcomed him was rows and rows of Sky Griffons that looked like a bus stop. They were all huge creatures with four legs that were similar to that of a lion and a head that looked like that of a bald eagle. They had blue and white fur and they were at least 7 meters tall.

However, even with this intimidating and majestic appearance, they seemed to be quite friendly and amicable as they looked at the humans around them with an adorable look.

Acht chose a random griffon and walked to it. There, he found two people, one that was giving tickets and the other seemed to be the rider as he wore some weird leather clothes and a hat that looked like that of an old pilot.

Acht saw the long line and decided to pass all of them. He garnered a lot of glares from the people that saw him pass.

"Hey, you! Stop there! Why are you cutting the line? Wait like everyone else, you bastard!" A man shouted in protest which created a huge commotion.

But, Acht couldn't care less about them. He just walked up to the man and gave him his royal pass card.

The man who was about to also shoo him away stared at the card with shocked eyes.

"One ticket for a ride to the western part of the city," Acht said to wake him up from his trance.

The man immediately shook his head and said in a hurry as sweat dropped from his face like a water hose.

"Y-Yes! Immediately, sir!" He then gave Acht a ticket and led him to the griffon.

The monster looked at Acht and bent down slightly to touch him with his beck. It seemed to have liked Acht as it made low growls of happiness as it touched him gently.

Acht also patted the creature's face and then climbed it up. There were stairs that led to the top of the griffon's back where he could sit on it. The fur was comfortable so the ride won't be a pain in the ass…literally.

"We will immediately fly, Sir." The man said as he ignored the long line of people waiting.

But, no one complained since they saw what the boy had. Royal Pass cards were the most prestigious thing in the city since it was made for only the cream of the crop when it comes to wealthy people.

"Why is he going alone? Doesn't this griffon fit at least 15 people?"

"Are you a retard? Don't you know that royalty pass cards make him the only one to ride it?"

Two men conversed with each other in admiration and jealousy.

Acht didn't bother with them and nodded his head to the pilot.

Then, the man climbed up and sat in front of Acht, right near the head. Then, he grabbed the rope that was attached to the griffon's neck and shook it two times.

Instantly, the creature extended its wings and flapped them loudly, creating a strong gust of wind before soaring into the sky and flying into the distance at an incredible speed.
