"This isn''t exactly hidden, you know," Aion said.


    "Only people with some level when ites to magic can see the pir… or so we were told," Seris exined. "Anyway, we were never attacked until now."


    Aion finally recalled why Ana was silent. She was finally going to see the city of her people… she never had the chance to see it and only heard a few things about it since her parents probably didn''t see it either. Still, usually, she would look excited instead.


    The city above the clouds waspletely hidden since the area was always cloudy. It wasn''t the size of the capital of the Zaera kingdom, but it was pretty massive. Instead of a huge chunk of earth floating, it was more like one of the earth tforms that Aion could make it fly. The city resembled a bit as well the fallen capital after being repaired. It had a lot of towers, and the buildings were mostly blue and gray.


    "Fifteen hundred years ago, one of my ancestors built this ce using all the technology and knowledge that he had obtained during their lifetime since we were being hunted all over the world thanks to our powers," Seris exined and then cut her hand a bit with a knife. "They wanted to create soldiers with the abilities to control time since no one was ever able to create perfect countermeasures against it."


    Seris touched the barrier with her hand and blood, and in the next moment, a hole appeared in the barrier. They crossed it, and Aion kept looking at her… her ancestor basically ripped off Aion''s family. So, she tried to avoid his gaze.


    The group began to approach the city and eventually found several metal bars around it that looked like the people inside were caged, but they probably worked to avoid idents.


    Once they approached the city, several armed guys began to show up near the metal bars while carrying weapons that resembled the magic crossbows that they had used before.


    Aion expected to see them wearing weird clothes, like white uniforms with strange symbols of it, since, considering their condition, their society looked pretty alien. Still, they were just wearing normal leather clothes, and some were wearing armor, probably for appearance''s sake.


    "Can you get rid of this box and send that guy away? His aura is a bit…" Seris said.


    Aion nodded and canceled the summon, and threw the box away while he made everyone float while using wind magic. Ana looked shocked after seeing the ce her ancestors lived… Come to think of it, Aion didn''t ask how the Heradins family faced their end.


    Some soldiers recognized Seris and even Aion, and he was pretty sure he didn''t see any of them. Eventually, theynded, and Seris greeted some people. They were drawing a lot of attention, but they didn''t have time to lose.


    "Let''s get going. Sauros must be at his homezing around," Seris said.


    Aion recalled that Sauros said that he would start working on building a family since he already had a girlfriend or something. Aion didn''t remember exactly since he wasn''t interested in another guy''s love life. In any case, he must be busy trying to make a son while he can… what an envious lifestyle.


    While looking around, Aion saw some shops selling clothes, weapons, armor, books, essories, and monster materials. Still, they all looked normal… it seemed that just living in a floating city was the only thing in which they stood out, that and the fact that they could use a bit of time magic.<novelsnext></novelsnext>


    The houses around weren''t much different from the high-ss ones in the capital, and it was quite hard to find one that stood out among the others. Everything looked simr, so it would be easy to get lost there.


    After walking for ten minutes, they stopped in front of a house that had arge garden and a bit different entrance… there were no gates around, but it had arge wall covering the whole residence.


    "Wait here. I will call him," Seris said while sweating a bit.


    Aion wondered why she was sweating. The climate inside the city was perfect, even though outside, it was close to zero. When he looked to the side, he saw Ana fidgeting.


    "Are you a fan of Sauros as well, like you are a fan of everyone else?" Aion asked.


    "No… it is a long story…" Ana forced a smile and replied.


    Aion furrowed his eyebrows since it wasn''t normal for her to act like that. All of a sudden, something came to Aion''s mind… could it be that Ana was a descendant of Sauros? That would exin why she looked nervous. It didn''t seem like Seris knew that, though.


    "You are simply unbelievable…" Sauros said while scratching the back of his head when he showed up from the back of his house.


    Seris showed up while showing a nervous smile soon after, and then another woman with long hair wearing something like a robe appeared as well. She looked to be in her mid-twenties, and she showed a sweet smile when she saw Aion. Still, he would instead that she doesn''t show that because she had quite the pair of bazongas… thergest that Aion had seen in that work, and it will be hard to maintain eye contact thanks to those bad boys.


    "Men, you don''t know when to take a break, huh," Sauros said when he got close enough."Since you never rx, you never use your head and don''t realize the obvious."


    "Are you picking a fight with me?" Aion asked while furrowing his eyebrows.


    "You must be Ana… Seris only told us a few things about you," Sauros said while ignoring Aion. "It seems that I didn''t do my job properly, and that caused you a lot of suffering… I am deeply sorry about that."


    "Hahaha, don''t mind it…" Ana looked away nervously. "I checked other timelines, and it seems that things were bound to happen that way no matter who was the next leader of the city."
