The Legacy Of Son Goku

Now that his business with Eisha had finished it's time to go for the next task, to survey the Granger's territory.

If he's not wrong Selianna told him his house was located at the western part of the Inner District, a place where high class nobles resided. The capital of Filtrania was divided by three circular walls. The Inner District, Middle District, and Outer District.

Middle District was a place for those with good fortunes resided, both commoner and nobles alike so it's not restricted to high rank nobles only like the Inner District. Selianna's current villa was located at the Middle District, far from her own family house. It was the largest section of the capital of Filtrania.

Outer District was a place only people with fair amount of fortune lived, no nobles lived in that place. In that District also where the slums located, the place for poor people. It was the second largest part of the city. Haruto met with Lena some days ago inside this district.

In order for a commoner or low rank noble to enter the Inner District one must need a special permission from the high rank nobles lived inside or from the royal castle directly.

Haruto did not have a valid reason to apply for permission to the royal castle so he could only tried to sneak in secretly. The problem was whether or not he could do it.

The gate was guarded by members of Lord Knights and very few amount of Royal Knights all over the walls from eight directions. They're troublesome to handle by Haruto without going at full strength, and he didn't think he could defeat a Royal Knight even if he did.

He could also felt a distortion of space surrounding the entire Inner District, he guessed it must be some kind of dimensional barrier or something because he couldn't sense the energy signatures inside the place. No normal attacks would be able to pierce through the dimensional barrier.

This was a lot more troublesome than he thought, but thankfully he already kind of expecting this. He searched his pocket and took out two strands of silver feather. Kaori gave him some of this before he went out, they were filled with [Disintegration] magic. By using the feathers he could 'melt' the barrier. No barriers could withstand the [Disintegration] magic.

The magic power filling the feather was not much but at least it was enough to create a small hole on the barrier, enough for a person to pass through.

There's also a sensory magical ward just a little in front of the sphere barrier so he needed two feathers for that, one for the ward and one for the barrier.

He asked Elsie to apply the invisibility magic for both of them and in an instant their figure turned completely transparent.

Haruto did not expect to completely fooled the Royal Knights perception by this, he also made sure to suppress his energy as much as possible and erased his presence the best he could do.

It's kind of odd but Elsie did not have the same kind of living presence like other people, he guessed it must be because she was a spirit and her body did not radiate what a normal person usually did when walking around like her smell for example. She did not even letting out heat from her body even though if he touched her skin he could feel the warmness and attracting scent. Anyway it's kinda hard to explain about her oddness. It's like she's a walking corpse but if you had contact with you would be sure she was living, something like that.

To put it simply was that, if she turned herself transparent it was almost impossible to notice her existence around you, as long as she did not letting out any kind of strong emotions that is.

He requested Elsie to take him fly above the sphere barrier. If he flew by himself he would expose his energy power, it was impossible to fly without using any energy after all. Elsie and Kaori were exceptions because one had the flying ability from hagoromo and the other had a pair of wings.

Finally he reached the highest part of the barrier exactly in the middle and on top of the royal castle below. He used one of the feather to bypass the sensory barrier before doing the same to the dimensional barrier but the latter part was even harder than he thought and the hole was smaller than he expected. He had to curl his body as small as possible and slipped inside after a tiresome effort. Elsie had it better than him since her body was smaller and more slender.

They flew outside the vicinity of the castle since there's another barrier a lot stronger than the one he just melt so he had to avoid detection.

Now then, he opened the map given by Selianna about the location of Granger House. He saw a red cross mark placed around fifteen km to the west and headed there.

....

About ten minutes later he could saw a majestic five stories mansion and the surrounding lands about as large as 1500 hectares.

It included their entire territory but just the main mansion took half of the area so it was pretty big. As expected of a noble he thought.

There's a few watchtowers with knights guarding the place. He didn't know what ranks they were but he guessed it was something around normal Knights and High Knights with a few of Grand Knights based on their power level.

He smirked since it was not that big of a deal. Grand Knight was already a mere stepping stone for him, his current strength in his base form was on par with the upper level of the Grand Knights. If he used Super Saiyan he could knocked them out with one hit. Still, that didn't mean he couldn't defeat the Grand Knights in his base form though. He was sure even if their power was about the same but his techniques and skills were definitely superior, just take a look at his ki manipulation technique for example, they couldn't even reach his feet regarding that.

He didn't land on the ground and instead just flew around the surroundings while taking notes of the location of the guards.

It looked like the inside of the house were also filled with some magical barriers since some of the part inside was kinda blurry to sense of. He could detect some presences there but nothing worthy of their strength. He's only wariness was the top most floor on the eastern part. Narrowing his eyes, he observed the room from outside intensely.

There's two living presence there but because a magical barrier was placed inside the room he couldn't have a clear sensation and the signatures were hazy. But for some reason it felt awfully familiar with him, especially one of them. He couldn't figure out the reason because he didn't know anymore acquaintances in this world beside the current one in his house and Rayne.

When he sneaked inside tonight he would definitely take a look of the people inside that room, while keeping that in his mind, he asked Elsie to placed a piece of her hagoromo near the ground a little outside their territory.

The hagoromo emitted Elsie's own energy so with that he could use Instant Transmission during the real operation tonight. His teleportation technique could bypass a barrier and even through dimensional space as long as he could sense the energy inside. That's how Goku could travel back and forth from the afterlife all he wants.

With that his business here finally over and he decided to head back to the house by teleporting to Kaori's place inside her room.

There's an incident of him suddenly appeared there while Kaori was changing her clothes. The timing was so perfect that she was exactly n.a.k.e.d without a single bit of cloth around her extremely beautiful jade-like body and Haruto could see everything about her up to the 'peaks' on her c.h.e.s.t and the forbidden place around the lower part of her body.

The house was nearly collapsed from Kaori's reaction but it was another story for later time.

.....

###

Inside a certain room protected by magical barriers, it was exactly the same room Haruto just observed from outside.

There's currently a pair of young girls staying inside the room only lighten up by lamps made from light stones, there's no windows around the place. The room was quite large and it could fit about ten people easily without being cramped.

There's a door led to bathroom and a few racks of bookshelves to the right and a large cabinet filled with various woman's clothing of very high quality.

The chandelier was hung up on top and shone beautifully with various colors of crystals while the walls were made from high quality white stones decorated with gold and silver ornaments.

This room was definitely a luxury room for people not lacking with money could stay in.

One of the girl was sitting on a desk near the bed while reading a book picked from the bookshelf with a straight face.

The other was curling herself on the corner of the bed, hanging down her head and covering it with her hands and knees. But it did not conceal her beautiful long black hair. The hair was a little messy from the lack of care but it did not lose its smoothness.

There's some dishes placed on a table filled with foods left uneaten. If there's someone paying attention they would realize the dishes were not made recently, at least it was left from early morning or last night.

The girl reading a book glanced at the other girl curling herself and her expression changed from aloof to concern. She closed her book and approached the girl slowly before sitting next to her and opened her mouth.

"Please cheer up, I'm sure it would be alright. I will definitely let us escape from this house. Tonight is exactly our chance and we can meet with 'him' again after that..." She said while patting her back.

The other girl raised her head and turned her eyes at the person next to her.

"I know. But I can't help but feel some doubt. And what if we failed? There's no way that person will let us go unharmed if that happened. And about 'him', I...."

"...."

The book girl also understood what the black haired girl was thinking about. She too felt doubt regarding what the person who confined them here told them a week ago when they suddenly 'appeared' on this place. It was just very hard to believe or maybe they just didn't want to be disappointed when it turned out to be a lie.

In the end they both were silent with a very sad expression on their face.

The black haired girl moved her head to the side with unfocused eyes, it was as if her gaze was looking past through the layers of walls, to the far outside.

She clutched her c.h.e.s.t tightly with her hands and said softly,

"Haru..."
