Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse novel Chapter 129

Chapter 129 - A little girl arrives in the North

A large number of carriages and people were standing in long lines behind the large fortress walls of the Frozen Kingdom. Merchants had brightly shining faces as their eyes settled on the kingdom that had boundless opportunities. Nobody in their right mind could explain the agricultural boom that had occurred, but as long as there were products, there would be people to buy and sell them.

Among the merchants, there was still the usual flow of refugees coming into the kingdom. Every single person was being checked thoroughly before entering, the guards being on the highest alert.

A little girl was swinging her legs happily as she rode on top of a carriage and looked upon the fortress walls with shining eyes.

Demon King Orias had finally arrived in the northern kingdom.

The carriage she was on passed through the checkpoints with no problems, and soon the sights of a bustling town with people rapidly moving about made itself clear. Orias was observing everything around her with rapt attention as she listened to the conversations she heard.

"The King is retiring so soon huh? I’m excited to see the coronation of the queen in the days to come!"

"Bah, you’re still going on about that? That’s the wrong thing to focus on man, it’s all about the new foods being distributed and sold right now. I wonder how the princess was able to do what she did."

"Haha, its a blessing from the world, simple as that! Come on, let’s go buy some more and stock up for the future!"

The people in the kingdom seemed to be relatively happy, not the types that knew they were in the middle of the war with invaders breathing down their necks.

Orias absorbed these sights as a small red pen and black notebook appeared in her hands as she began writing notes.

-Morale is high in the kingdom. Change in leadership is imminent.-

The carriage she was on came to a stop at a certain shop as the merchants began to batter and unload their products, looking longingly at the shining produce that could be seen in many of the shops around them.

There were signs of construction going on across the town and in most other places you looked at as more inns and houses were being built to accommodate the continued refugees that fled into the kingdom. Orias continued to scribble in her book.

-Unlike how most other kingdoms in this world are currently, the kingdom in the north seems to be actively expanding.-

She was recording the littlest of things as she tried to be very thorough. Even if they didn’t seem important, when she went over them later she might find something that could point her in the right direction.

She moved around carefully as she continued to observe the kingdom, most of her information coming from the conversations that continued to occur around her.

"Sir adventurer, I heard you were in the battle and watched first hand how the hero defeated the demon king, can you describe what you saw?!"

A small conversation quickly made her ears perk up as she neared the location where a bunch of mercenaries and adventurers were cl.u.s.tered.
