Chapter 1811: Finding The Place
After walking out of Larry's shop, I looked at the system window and nodded, I guess all of that information I learned was enough to get the last requirement done.
Ding!

[After completing the last Side Quest, you will be granted rewards based on completion speed and timing, alongside being given your next Quest.]
So I get rewards too? Well that sounds more fun. Actually they're based on timing?! So maybe we should hurry the fuck up then!
Though, anyways, what's even the point of the Race for us anyways? That race where all the outlaws, sherifs, and bounty hunters are going... Wait why are sherifs stepping out of their towns for a race?
I guess they're like heroes of justice in this world... It is indeed an exaggerated version of an already exaggerated wild west world and narrative from these old movies.
Plus a lot of sci-fi and other stuff, giving it a very unique twist...
Well, whatever the case, it doesn't take a genius to realize the trial wants me to go to that
race.
That Whalebug even showed up out of nowhere just to stop the train so we could get there, the race was even delayed!
Perhaps the trial is all about this race and the opponents we'll meet? We don't have much time though, the break before the last trial of the inheritance is only five days.
So far, I think we only got two more days to complete this or we would be edging way too much towards the last couple hours. I want at least a day to prepare.
After all that last trial ain't going to be just about completing it, I'll have to fight Pandemonium to death most likely, and seeing how strong he is, I cannot slack around and waste my time.
Thankfully Emil didn't understand what he said so he didn't really paid attention to him.
"Haahh... I just want to rescue my mom and my dad, if they're even alive," he sighed. "I'll do whatever you say..."
"Alright then, Miranda, we should get going," said Benladann. "Can you guide us there?"
"Yeah, can you?" I asked.
"I can, sure," she nodded. "Let's go, we can't waste any more precious time on idle chat."
She quickly spread out her wings and flew into the skies, we followed her.
"W-Wait! Uwaah?!"
Emily panicked as Benladra grabbed him like a princess and carried him in her arms.
She definitely looks like a 9- to 10-year-old girl, but her humanoid form is an Ice Giant too, so she's huge despite that.
It was easy for her to carry such a delicate and small-looking young alien man.
"Don't worry I got a strong grip!" Benladra giggled. "But don't move too much or you might
fall! Ok?"
"O-ok..." Emil gulped saliva as he saw the city from above the skies.
Miranda led us through the city's skies until we reached the northwest sector, where there was the worst red district areas, full of crime and such.
We quickly reached a dark alley which was full of thugs that immediately glared at us with disbelief that we just got here from the skies.
There was a dozen, and although they seemed like homeless people or random thugs, it was obvious they were all guarding this alley.
"It's through this place," said Miranda. "Over there."
She pointed at the end of the alley, there was an abandoned house.
"Oi, oi, who the hell are you guys?"
"Get out of our turf!"
"Hey this is our place..."
The thugs approached immediately like moths to flames.
