<h4>Chapter 378 Ravenfell </h4>


    Adam and Daneli walked side by side, slowly making their way out of the Harbor Quarter. ncing around at the bustling area, Adam couldn''t help but marvel at it.


    "This port is so lively!" He said in a fascinated tone, "The level of activity is almost on par with the one in Acryon."


    Daneli nodded. "Ravenfell has the second busiest port in the Empire after Acryon. Countless shipse and go every day."


    As the two Magi moved away from the port, the mor of the harbor gave way to the softer sounds of the city beyond.


    The ambient noise shifted to the chatter of the city folks and the asional cawing of ravens.


    Adam raised his head and was very intrigued by what he saw. Countless ravens flew through the air. Some perched atop buildings, while others nestled between the branches of the trees.


    "What''s with the ravens?" The youth asked curiously. "There''s an awful lot of them."


    "The presence of ravens is deeply connected to the city''s history," Daneli began exining.


    "Rumor has it that the founder was guided toward the sight of the future city by a magical raven. This bird was seen as a symbol of destiny, leading the founder to establish Ravenfell."


    Adam stroked his chin, his eyes shing with thoughtfulness. "How interesting! In many cultures, ravens are associated with wisdom, mystery, and even fate."


    Daneli nced at Adam and spoke with a mysterious smile, "They are also creatures deeply associated with the Spirit World."


    Adam''s eyes lit up. It had been a long time since he had visited this mystical dimension. Perhaps, after he had settled down here, he could visit the Spirit World and learn more about the city''s connection with ravens.


    "The raven has be the emblem of Ravenfell, appearing in the city''s heraldry, g, and even official documents," Daneli added.


    Adam suddenly thought of something and spoke with slight disgust, "There are so many ravens here, is the city full of their shit?"


    Daneli''s lips twitched. "Is that all you can think of? Really?"


    "I mean." Adam shrugged. "It''s a reasonable development."


    Daneli rolled his eyes. He then added, "Over the centuries, ravens have adapted to the urban environment of the city. They''re intelligent creatures and can find ample food and nestling opportunities within the city."


    "That still doesn''t solve the shitting problem," Adam chuckled.


    "Surprisingly enough, you won''t find any guano within the city," Daneli scoffed.


    Adam looked around and, much to his surprise, found that it was exactly as the elven youth had said.


    "Unbelievable! There''s actually no bird shit!"


    The pair soon made their way out of the harbor district. At the entrance of the port, there was a horse-drawn carriage waiting for them.


    Beside it, an old man with neatlybed hair and a trimmed mustache seemingly awaited the two Magi. When his gazended on Daneli, he bowed respectfully. "My lord, you''ve returned."


    Daneli nodded in an aloof manner.


    Adam nced at the interaction between the two and asked, "Your personal butler?"


    "Something like that," said the elf.


    The old butler opened the carriage door, allowing Adam and elf to enter and take their seats. Adam nced at the leather seating and the luxurious interior and couldn''t help but whistle.


    "Man, you''re rich!"


    Daneli didn''t reply, but his chin involuntarily rose a little and a slight smirk adorned his face. Seeing this, Adam couldn''t help but roll his eyes.


    He sure is susceptible to praise.


    The elf nced at Adam and asked, "Shall we head to Saratoga Castle?"


    "What''s the rush?" Adam waved his hand. "Show me around the ce. Let''s go to your favorite restaurant or something. Let''s have a drink!"


    Daneli had a dumbfounded look on his face. "Is drinking all you think about?"


    "Of course," Adam stated matter-of-factly.


    In the end, Daneli couldn''t help but sigh to himself. He instructed the carriage driver, "Take us to The Sleepy Hobbit."


    "Yes, my lord," came the voice of the old man from outside.


    The horses neighed and started to pull the carriage toward the famous tavern located in the Downtown Quarter.


    Through the carriage window, Adam looked at the passing-by scenery. The tall buildings, the people wearing different clothes, the atmosphere, everything was a novel experience for the youth.


    "The city is surprisingly clean," he said.


    "Well, that''s just because we''re in the Downtown Quarter," replied Daneli, ncing at the trees nted on the sidewalks with a faint smile.


    "This is an important and wealthy region within the city, home to many noble families, merchant houses, shops, and businesses."


    "Is this the wealthiest part of the city?" Adam asked.


    Daneli shook his head. "No, that would be the Uptown Quarter."


    "I see." Adam nodded. ncing at the scenery outside the window, he couldn''t help butpare it to the Inner City in Acryon.


    To say that it paled inparison would be a major understatement.


    But Adam was a simple man who liked simple things. It didn''t matter if the ce he stayed in wasvish or not. As long as his basic necessities were met, he would be satisfied.


    Of course, he wouldn''t say no to a slightly luxurious lifestyle.


    Within the next thirty minutes, the horse-drawn carriage had arrived at the restaurant. The pair stepped out and walked straight into the establishment.


    The front side of this restaurant had two stained-ss bay windows that created a delightful atmosphere for its patrons dining in themon area on the first floor.


    Meanwhile, the building''s second floor was reserved for VIPs only.


    As soon as Daneli walked through the door, he was immediately recognized by the restaurant staff. They respectfully bowed toward him and led him to the second floor.


    Seeing such a scene, Adam couldn''t help but be impressed.


    This bastard sure knows how to live life, he thought to himself.


    The crowd on the second floor was far less than on the floor below. All the people dining here came from affluent backgrounds.


    When the pair arrived here, many patrons nced at Daneli and nodded with a ttering smile.


    Adam couldn''t help but lightly elbow the youth and asked in a hushed tone, "You seem to know everyone here. What the hell do you do for a living?"


    "Hmph, hasn''t Lord Berger told you the importance ofworking?" Daneli harrumphed as he took a seat by the window.


    Adam sat down across from him. He rolled his eyes and replied, "But this seems a little more thanworking if you ask me."


    Daneli simply ignored Adam''s remark. He knew that the youth was trying to annoy him. It was best to ignore it. He called for the hostess and ordered the local delicacies.


    Naturally, he didn''t forget to order wine.


    After the hostess left, Adam nced at the elf with bright eyes.


    "So tell me about the Saratoga Castle."
