Aunt Beatrice was not actually related in any way to the Heller family.

Sebastian was told to call her aunt because their mother, Eliz Heller shared a close bond with Beatrice. They lived in the same neighborhood in Kald village, doing chores together. The two were close friends that they thought of each other as their sisters.

Beatrice later married a man who she met while traveling. Later she had to move away with her husband to the capital, where they opened a bakery shop.

She felt quite bad for moving away from the village leaving her best friend behind. Although, Eliz encouraged her to move to the capital with her husband. As it was once in a lifetime opportunity to acquire citizenship in the capital.

The royal capital of Rublor Kingdom was a huge city.

The city was divided into five sectors.

The first sector was the imperial palace where the royal family lived. Their palace was situated on a huge tall rock situated in the center of the city. The palace was built with mysterious white marble that shined brightly during the summer. The reflection from the palace was so bright that it would even lit up the place where the rock cast its shadow over the city. Although, during winter and spring, the palace would be covered with clouds most of the time.

Just next to the tall rock of the imperial palace is located 5 towers as tall as the imperial palace from the ground below. These 5 towers are the only means to access through the imperial palace. Each tower is protected by a Paladin ranked knight. These knights are powerful mages with a legendary class enchanted relic, crafted by ancient mages. The area around the five towers is called the guardian outpost, which was the second sector.

Just near the footsteps of the towers was situated the Brochnello castle, where the high ranking magic knight order’s base of operations take place. This castle resides in the border of the Guardian outpost sector and the Noble district.

Then the third sector in the region next to guardian post is the Noble district.

Here, all the nobility family resides. There are mansions and gardens all around the place where eyes can see. Most of the high ranking magic knights of noble heritage live in this region. No commoners can trespass in this region without permission.

After the noble district, there’s a wall guarded by the military. These separate the noble district from the civilian district.

The civilian district is where the citizens of Abros city reside.

The houses are a little cramped up next to each other. But nevertheless, you would surely live a nice and peaceful life here. That’s because the government covers all your expenses from food, clothing to schooling. Once you become a citizen, you don’t even need to work.

But citizenship is given only in certain circumstances, that is-

‘If anyone that is the citizen of Rublor kingdom, whose not of noble heritage shows the potential to manipulate mana in any way, can get citizenship for his entire family. Although, that particular person has to pledge loyalty to the military and its cause.’

Hence, all the citizens that live in this district have or had a family member serving the military.

The last and exterior region is the peasant district.

Now, this is the place where all the markets and merchants conduct their business.

A lot of travelers and merchants come to sell their commodities in this sector. They can’t sell anywhere else other than the peasant district. Also, all the basic necessity shops for the Abros citizens are kept here. From foods to clothing, to art and merchandise, you name it, they have it.

Although, only selected people are allowed to have permanent shops in this sector.

The rest of the merchants and shopkeepers have to leave the market after a given time. This is to give other merchants an equal chance to conduct business, giving everyone a fair and equal opportunity.

One of the permanent shops happened to be Aunt Beatrice’s Bakery.

They have been making a living while selling their baked foods in this city for the past 10 years. The shop is basically their home.

After walking for some time through the crowded city, they finally reached their new home.

“Here’s your new home,” announced Aunt Beatrice with a lovely smile.
