I.. Am God?-Chapter 105 Meizu, An Encounter

"Oh, is it?" Auntie Shan's eyes lit up with understanding. "Little Jianyu, don't abuse the power that the Imperial Palace has bestowed you." She said with seriousness.

"I heard that His Imperial Majesty is a very magnanimous and powerful man who defeated the Traitor Guan and his army from the mercenaries that sometimes pass by our village. They said that His Imperial Majesty is also hellbent on improving the dynasty. That kind of ruler needs to be respected and honored."

Hearing her talk, Matthias smiled slightly. Knowing and hearing that his subjects knew him that way made his heart warm up.

"Jianyu, you're leaving, right?" Han Qiaoyi reminded him.

"Oh, right." Matthias nodded, "Father, Mother, Auntie Shan, I'm leaving. Stay safe."

"Mhmm." Auntie Shan nodded and smiled.

He rode his horse and left the village galloping. The villagers dispersed, same with the Han parents.

On a hill near the village, two old men, one wearing ragged clothes while the other was wearing a blue hanfu that teachers wear and a black hat while waving his feather fan.

The man wearing ragged clothing looked at the leaving Matthias with interest, "Lord Fate focused on him and now even wants us to make him aware of our existence. What do you think? Why would Lord Fate want us to do so?" He asked the man beside him playfully.

"Lord Fate thinks highly of this man. He would be in charge of the universe that He will make. We just need to follow what he wants." The man with a feathered fan answered.

"He would encounter the existence of Hell and the Ten Yama Kings next, right?" The ragged old man said with anticipation.

"Shut up, Junior Brother Sanyi." The man spoke coldly. "Even if we aren't in the presence of The Benighted or The Chosen People, we of the Fate Weavers Sect must not lightly speak of the Lord's plans for this universe that He is creating."

Seeing that he has indeed gone far, Sanyi slumped his shoulders, "Yes, Senior Brother Huizhi."

Huizhi then suddenly straightened up and looked at something out of nowhere, going past the boundaries of their reality. Sanyi also felt something and looked at where Huizhi was looking. Huizhi then cupped his hands and bowed. "This Lowly Huizhi takes his leave."

He glanced at Sanyi and said, "Lord Fate is watching us with the other Universe Weavers and Omniscient Beings of his world. You need to go and do what you need to do."

"Yeah, yeah, sure." Sanyi nodded absentmindedly. He then shook his head and ran towards somewhere that is of the same direction as to where Matthias was going.

Going back to Matthias, he rode and explored three cities towards the west on horse. Then, he proceeded on traveling on foot towards the other cities.

Meizu City, Extreme Southwest of Qin.

This city is four cities away from the capital city and also a border city from the Wild Territories, lands that are not under the rule of sentient beings.

The Wild Territory beyond Meizu was a forest where beasts of all different power levels roamed free. Inside the forest, spiritual herbs and plants rich in energy are abundant, and resources are scattered across the forest. Meizu, as the only open city on the border, and without being under strict military rule, became the center point of trade between the people, merchants, and the mercenaries, resulting in the city becoming a rich and wealthy city.

With its power, wealth, and influence, it became an independent city with its own governance without being interfered with by the Imperial Rule.

The Lord of The City, Cang Yuanwei, was a direct general under Guan Shaoming, so, when the late and former duke's rebellion took place, Meizu City was one of its powerful and solid supporters.

When Guan Shaoming died, those who were under other nobles' rule easily surrendered or ran away, but those who were under the former duke's direct rule fought until they saw the might of the soldiers of Qin. 𝗳𝒓𝙚e𝓌e𝚋𝙣𝚘𝐯𝙚𝙡.𝑐૦ｍ

Cang Yuanwei was one of the first to run away, bringing with him the wealth that the city has accumulated since its founding, but Cang Yuanwei was still caught by the assassins of the Order of The Black Crow and was arrested under the law of the Imperial Rule.

The wealth was seized and was distributed to the military and agricultural sectors of the dynasty. Some of it returned to Meizu for its development.

Now, Meizu City returned to its old business, and Matthias could see that.

The city was bustling with people both from the wealthy and commoners' circle. There were the strong-bodied mercenaries and there were also chubby merchants roaming the streets of the city.

Matthias walked at a fixed pace inside the city. He saw pubs, taverns, merchant's halls, commerce halls, a mercenary hall, hotels, and so on.

The streets were littered with products from the wild and weapons that were chipped and rusted.

He entered a commerce hall named "Blackstar Commerce" and looked at their products. From spirit herbs to powerful weapons, they displayed everything on magically reinforced glass shelves.

"I told you, this is worth more than you're offering!" Suddenly, a european-looking woman's shout came from the counter. She donned a messy armor, her blonde hair was tied in a high ponytail, with her hair still reaching the middle of her back. Looking at her closely, she looked like a gallant female general who fought hundreds of battles. 𝐟𝘳𝑒𝗲𝘸e𝒃𝘯𝒐𝐯e𝚕.c𝒐𝒎

But right now, she looked very desperate while holding the plant that she wanted to sell.

"Missy, this is just a ten-year-old Forest Eucalyptus. Its only use is to cure severe fever, headache, and cough. It literally is being sold to almost anywhere inside this city." The man behind the counter said resignedly, "At most, the cost of this would be about seven gold coins."

"I'm telling you, I don't know what this is, but I am sure this isn't only a Forest Eucalyptus! Could you please just buy it from me for just fifty spirit coins, please!" The woman pleaded to the man.
