Little Theo had absolute control of the ship he created through illusion. The speed was also fast, and, in a few seconds, he was already far away from fallen star island.
"Dad, mom, we're all grown up, so we don't need to go to any amusement parks or aquariums. We just wish to have a nice day, right?" Little Emma smiled at her two cute siblings as she asked for their confirmation.
Little Theo and Little Yumi nodded in agreement.
"Okay, so we might as well spend a little time in each city to get to know this planet better," Yuki suggested.
Theo agreed, "It's a good idea."
With that in mind, they stopped at a town a few miles away from where they were.
It wasn't a very big city and only covered 395,133 km².
Living in this city, there were an average of 100,000 people.
Entering the city, they walked while watching their surroundings.
Although it wasn't a big city, it was well developed with buildings up to 100 floors.
Little Yumi and Little Theo's big eyes sparkled as they watched and saw pedestrians walking, even some interesting automobiles, some very sophisticated, some a little more retro.
"Hello." A woman in what appeared to be a disc, with six stools to sit on, apart from the driver's seat, approached Theo and Yuki, "You're new in town, right?"
"Mm." Yuki nodded in agreement. "Yes, we are."
"As I thought." The woman with black hair and grass green eyes smiled, "Sorry for my intrusion, I was just delighted with your family, and even though it's not protocol, I would like to be your tour guide. Oh yes, my job is a tour guide, and this blimp is the most popular among tourists."
Theo looked at their children, "What do you think?"
"I'm fine with it." Little Emma had no problem with that.
Little Yumi said maturely, "We're not going to stay in this town for long, so if there's someone to show us around the place, it'll be faster, yes?"
"Theo?" Yuki looked at him.
"Okay, we'll do it." He agreed in a relaxed way.
"Excellent." She smiled, "Sorry for the late introduction, my name is Elise, you can call me Lise too. To start with, the name of this city is Manaus, and there are many tourist attractions in the city, the most famous being the meeting of the waters. There are also Manaus Municipal Park, Science Forest and..."
She started listing a large number of places.
"Okay, let's go to this meeting of the waters first? Yes, this one." Yuki said after they talked.
"Okay." Smiling professionally, Lise started the blimp.
While driving, she presented the city's historical sights and made sure to visit the most beautiful places in the city.
Her explanation was smooth and easy to understand, even though she didn't live in the city. She also had an announcer's voice that made them pay attention to her explanation.
Gradually, they had known several different places, even some famous restaurants, and there were even a few that served spiritual food.
"Spiritual food is different from normal food because not only is it tastier, but it is also useful for cultivation. By the way, it seems that the restaurant's specialty is phoenix meat." Lise said there are rumors that it could even awaken a part of the phoenix's powers if they're lucky.
Hearing this, they laughed since they had bloodlines from the ancestral phoenix itself...
"We've arrived." The airship stayed a few meters above the ground. In the air, they could see the direction Lise was pointing. The sea looked like Neapolitan ice cream since there were three different colors clashing. One was crystal blue, another Coca-Cola color, while the last was pale green.
"This darker part... This is a special kind of water." Theo noticed the mana coming out of this part of the water, and it wasn't polluted, but a special kind of water. Precisely because of this, it didn't mix with the other two colors of water.
"Yes, you are absolutely right." Lise smiled, "There are many legends why it got that way, but the main one is that a powerful being died in the lake, and the corpse is still at the bottom of the sea, doing this phenomenon. However, something very powerful prevents people from getting closer, so it was never confirmed. In fact, this part of the sea has been like this for over a millennium."
After another two hours, they said goodbye to Lisa. Theo tipped her generously.
"It was great to have this experience. You are very good at what you do." Yuki told her with a smile, "We will return to this town at some point in the future."
"We will be waiting for that," Lisa said with a welcoming smile.
Lise was very happy with her decision. Her instincts were more than right since stopping this family not only provided a pleasant time, she also received the biggest tip she had ever received. 'With that, I can even buy that blimp and manage to take more tourists...'
Lisa's dream was to be a great tour guide. However, her current company is small, she built it herself, and there were only 3 employees working with her.

In the next city, it was less historic. In fact, it was a new city, with only 100 years of history. So its development could only be said to be slow. There wasn't much, although some parts were more developed.
The time they spent in this city was not very long, and after less than an hour, they had already left for the next city.
On a floating boat created by Little Yumi this time, she even made a simulation of sailing at sea, creating current in the wind. Looking into the distance, there was a city near a very large volcano. "Dad, what's up in that town?"
"Okay, let's go." Theo nodded.
The ship's speed increased, stopping a few kilometers before they descended, and Theo teleported them closer to town.
Around the city, there were high walls.
"Hello, are you new around here?" Someone started a conversation.
He was a chubby man with a friendly smile who was on his way to the entrance to town.
"Yes." Theo nodded.
"Your family is very beautiful," He praised the man and said, "My name is Franck, I live in a nearby village, so I know this Hometown well. If you have any questions, welcome."
"Why are there these walls around the city?" Little Theo asked the man.
"This is because of the hordes of monsters that attack the city frequently…." Then, the man asked, "Don't you know about the horde of monsters? Is this your first horde of monsters? That's a surprise, since..."
"We don't know about the monster horde." Theo had no reason to lie.
"Well…" Despite finding it strange, Franck explained, "These walls are called the Great wall of Natal. It's been around for a few tens of centuries. Whenever a horde of monsters is close to attacking, nearby villages come to Hometown. That was why I was coming to town; look at this huge line."
He and Theo looked and actually saw many people entering the city.
"They are all from villages that are close to the Hometown." Franck said, "A horde of monsters is close to attacking; luckily, we live in times when we can keep all important belongings in storage rings, or else the damage we would have would be very great."
"I do not understand." Little Theo said dubiously, "Why don't you move to other lands? I mean, if there's a horde of monsters here, just move to a different place where it doesn't exist."
"…There are no other lands…." Franck looked at them even more weirdly.
