Chapter 141: Galion Romen, an Elite from Crome Family

Approximately more than a hundred years ago.

"Finally, I've arrived."

A solitary man on top of a small boat stood and saw the magnificent harbor in front of him. It was filled with men and fishers, captains and workers doing their own businesses.

Nets filled with fishes were being transported by large crawling blue silky lizards. 

Boats varying in colors and sizes could be seen lining up. Passing that line of boats was a bustling town. Through that town were large houses with great distances between each other. That should be the neighborhood of the nobles.

Further, there is the large castle that domineeringly stood taller than everything else. This signifies the position of those who live there.

The solitary man who had long lustrous hair arrived and was looked at with curiosity from the locals.

Not restraining his "Rank Cee" aura, none messed with the newcomer. Even the usual thugs were nowhere to be seen.

"So this is the Rianzares Kingdom. There's... nothing special about it. Now, how could I find that Haliviana? Should I just enter the castle and talk to the king and ask?" the man smirked but soon shook his head.

He is Galion Romen, part of the Elite Division of the highest ruling Royal Family in Arcansas, the Crome Family. This family is situated near the center of Reruon Mountain Land.

Galion is on a secret mission. Because recently, right after the Lord Sorcerer appeared in Arcansas, Arcansas herself, the Rank Es Elementalist Head of the Crome Family disappeared.

Of course, there are other Rank Es Elementalists, but none could compare to the strength of Arcansas Crome.

If the Lord Sorcerer was the one to blame here, then no one could do anything. No one, except for the God Centre, of course. But why could God Centre meddle with the Arcansas Continent when his hands are full already?

That is why the Elite Division was given the task of finding their lost leader as soon as possible.

Galion was tasked with Haliviana. His mission was to talk to the overseer of this small island which was Haliviana herself.

However, the problem was, no one knew who she is or what gender even does this overseer has. They just knew that Haliviana was the ruler of that island.

Even the elders would shake their heads if they were asked where she could be found.

"When we were a kid, Queen Haliviana was said to be a loving person. To the point that she does not discriminate between Elemental Beasts and humans. She was said to be insane. I'm still a kid back then when she mysteriously disappeared. She was very powerful. There were cults back then that were worshipping her."

"Nobody knows or maybe only the royalties have an idea with this."

Galion tried asking around first. If he were to show up as a representative of the Crome Family, even a child would connect it to something.

If the whole Arcansas Continent were to know that the continent overseer disappeared, Crome Family would be pressured from all sides. Weakening them while the others have the chance to.

Galion felt a headache to this.

"Why do these overlords, whether they are a country overlord or a continent overlord disappear without notice? Can't they left a sticky note or something?"

He could easily overthrow this country with his true Rank but he did not and kept cautious.

Galion spent years on that island, reaching many cities and the three kingdoms. He found many things.

The number one thing that he found was that an Immoral Family was living in the Rianzares Kingdom. What's worse was that the Immoral Family and the Royal Family are the same. If he was not a Rank Eybi Elementalist, he would've no chance of finding this out.

Secondly, he also found out that there is a surprising number of Elemental Beasts, ranging from Rank Eeh to Rank Ey. It was terrifying! But the strangest thing was, they seemed to be tamed.

Galion could not explain it because it was too weird. If any of the three kings saw these Rank Ey Elemental Beasts, they would get scared. And that's all.

But Galion knew that these beasts have an owner. He became more patient after this, thinking that there is a powerful expert on that small island. Even if it's just his imagination, it wouldn't here to be careful.

Thirdly, he had asked the eldest person in that country about it. She was the former queen in the Hansheles Kingdom. She was the queen ages ago. But now, her grandson was the new ruler.

One could easily imagine how old she is. Since Elementalist have a longer lifespan than normal.

Non-Elementalist, an average of sixty years.

Rank Eeh, an average of eighty years. Rank Dih, hundred years.

Rank Cee, an average of a hundred and forty years.

Rank Bih, an average of two hundred years!

This old lady should have knowledge.

"So you want to know about Lady Haliviana? Hehe... Sir, you shouldn't pry on this one."

That's the only thing that she said. It was as if she knew that she was talking to someone that is not just Rank Cee.

This ticked Galion's curiosity. He was now too immersed in his investigation that he even forgot that he was doing this as a mission to find their lost overlord, Arcansas.

However, he cannot just force that former queen. Threaten her? She was already at the end of her life. He also does not have memory extraction elesp. He barely has a Rank Ey Elesp even for one of the strongest Elite in the Crome Family.

And most importantly, memory extraction elesp are all Rank Es.

Elesp books are just too hard to obtain. Sometimes, Rank Cee Elementalists only have Rank Dih Elesps.

Meaning, Galion could only search for other alternatives. In the end, he rested in the center of Haliviana. The future Trading-Hills Capital was still a small town.

There, he found something strange. Elemental Beasts have been avoiding it. From his queries, he found out that although there are beast tides, it was rare. This shouldn't be.

Galion could feel a strong elemental essence from the environment, enough to sustain Rank Ey Elemental Beasts which should make it a territory of a Rank Ey Elemental Beast.

The Rank Bih Elementalists in the Haliviana may not learn this but he was a Rank Eybi Elementalist under the continent overseer, Arcansas. He was properly trained and is quite experienced.

After staying for almost half a month there, he finally cracked the code on the disappearance of Haliviana, maybe even his queen, Arcansas.
