Chapter 30 Exploring the Capital

After a week of on and off cultivation and body refining Daedalus had finally decided to check out the capital in a less hurried manor. Leaving his room Daedalus met up with his father in his study and said "I will be exploring the capital today, I will see you later."

Daedalus then walked out of the castle and got a carriage ride to the gate. The first place he had decided to go was the adventurers guild. Arriving at the adventurers guild he realised that it was an extremely large and busy place. Walking in was difficult but he managed, and he finally reached the C rank quest board. Daedalus ended up getting a kobold nest removal quest which is located on the south of the capital.

After getting his quest without incident he got outside and decided to explore the nobles area, he wanted to beat up any rich kids who thought they were better than him. Arriving by carriage Daedalus thanked the driver and gave them a gold before walking up to the gate. When he got to the gate he was of course stopped but he got through quickly by showing his insignia.

Daedalus began walking around looking at the sites and just generally enjoying himself when finally some young noble brat decided he was an eyesore "Hey, you get out of here you are ruining the beauty of this sculpture by standing near it!"

Daedalus was of course a bit insulted as he was quite dashing so turning to the young noble he said "And who might you be?"

The noble replied smugly "I am son of the grand Duke, Lucid!"

Daedalus saw the nobles smug grin and decided that 'Though he may be the son of the grand Duke I will not give him any face.' saying "All right, you can scram now." in a not interested sort of way, before going back to looking at the statue.

After a few minutes trying to process what was happening Lucid realised that Daedalus had actually completely ignored that he was son of the grand Duke, which made him very angry. Lucid felt like he had been insulted in front of his date and began running at Daedalus.

Daedalus could practically feel the vibrations as the meet ball came rolling at him. Daedalus side stepped the charge with ridiculous ease causing Lucid to fly face first into the beautiful statue, causing it to break. Daedalus had not thought about the possibility that Lucid might break the statue and was quite upset.

Walking over to the fatty Daedalus gave him a good kick in the stomach which knocked him back four metres, before saying "Did you have to go and break the statue, I thought it was quite beautiful."

The fatty got up surprisingly quickly and pulled a talisman out of his space ringbefore saying "Kid you had better get ready my father is coming now and he will beat you to death for hurting me!"

Daedalus heard this and became serious, pulling out a talisman of his own but hiding it out of sight so that Lucid could not see it. Lucid thought that Daedalus was afraid now and decided to attack Daedalus saying "Kid you would be better to get hit by these punches or my father will surely beat you to death!"

Daedalus obviously dodged everything but after a while a man appeared, he looked quite noble and strong but when Daedalus tried to sense his cultivation he only felt an immense dread. The man then said "What is going on here, Lucid?"

"Father this man has insulted and injured me multiple times, please help me get revenge!"

Lucid's father then appeared in front of Daedalus and attacked.
