The five of them didn't understand why the delay occurred or if something else is happening behind the scenes.

But for the next four days, there is no response at all. The Arena management completely washed this matter off their hands and every time the trio tried to ask the city administration about the issue, they brushed it off.

They are losing patience and by this point, they knew that something is fishy.

When they are feeling a bit lost, they finally had some clues.

There is a large movement as all the young masters in the city joined together and started roaming all the luxurious places in the city.

If this is the only thing, it is extremely normal for the city, but there are a few extra people along with that batch of young masters and these people are not completely unfamiliar for the locals.

Once the news spread and Raunak learned of it, he gave the details.

"They are the young masters of the upper realm. Charbhum realm is a subordinate realm to another entity.

They are other elves apart from us in a superior realm and we work under them. Every few years, they will come and select some of the valuable young prospects to take back with them. These young masters are not exactly the selection judges, but these people do have some pull in their realm and they come here to pick a few people who are good within the selected criterion and try to gain a few personal subordinates.

But I don't think they are related to your current situation. Because they don't have any sway in the laws and rules of this place. Once they are found to violate a single law or rule and go against the norm of here, they will face some serious consequences when they return.

There are some cases where these people even died because of their impudence here."

After hearing this explanation, even Sam and the trio didn't think there is much to do. While they are thinking this, the situation in Planet 2 is worsening and Sam's shadow mice that are currently spread all over the city already gave him the information about some elite military units secretly entering the city.

This city is the only way to go to Planet 2 and then they have to reach the sea. But they cannot do it openly because of the secrets they have to preserve.

Even the higher authorities of the two factions are diverting their attention to this problem from the elections because of the seriousness.

But no matter how much they tried to suppress it, it would be hard to do so unless they enter the sea and manage to fight there.

If they can't do it, the sea folk can just attack them on earth and return to the sea as they like. They are just wearing them down. But the soldiers cannot follow the sea folks into the sea and hit them. So the sea folks just attack, return, recover and come back once again.

The whole situation is disadvantageous to begin with.

But Sam didn't take a step forward to selling this. At first, he has to find some information regarding what is happening. He had a faint feeling that Ramana might know of this as faction 1 has the highest animosity towards them.

He sent a shadow mouse after him, but even before the shadow mouse, someone else came to him with information.

The same teen who Sam paid once again came into contact with him.

"Big Bro, do you remember me?"

"Why are you asking the same question again and again? Just say what do you want?"

"Hehe, I actually some information on hand. I wonder if you want to buy it."

"Information? About what?"

"About the reason your friends not meeting the King."

Sam was surprised. He just learned about the people that came from other realms and Ramana who is with them came to his mind and he sent a shadow mouse after him, but before that this kid came to him.

"Tell me, what do you want?"

"I.. I.." The kid is a bit hesitant about giving the number he had in mind.

"Okay, just give me the information. I will give the money based on its worth."

"That.."

"You either tell me what you want or take what I give. Just figure this out."

The kid took a deep breath and decided to go with it.

"One hundred million."

Sam looked at him and just nodded without batting an eye.

Seeing that the kid heaved a sigh of relief and said.

"The reason your friends couldn't meet the king is because of someone called Ramana's father. That guy's father is planning to send someone called Ramya away to the other realm and he paid a large price to invite some high-level houses from the upper realm.

He said that Ramya is somehow related to you guys and you are trying to stop her from leaving. They are afraid that you will use the reward from the king to keep her from leaving.

That is why they made you stop from meeting the king. That is all I know."

Sam widened his eyes in disbelief.

"How did you get this info?"

"I work at a restaurant. I heard this from a group that is drinking there."

He took out a spatial ring and tossed it to the kid and said.

"If you have any information in the future you can come to me. I don't care what kind of information it is, as long as it is about the faction 1 I am okay with that."

With that, he hurriedly turned around and went to meet Raunak.

The kid looked inside the spatial ring and was stumped to see so many spirit stones inside. There are around two hundred million. He didn't expect that he would get double the amount.

He carefully hid that grin on his face and left the place.

Sam met with Raunak and explained the situation.

Raunak slumped into the chair and said.

"I knew that piece of shit would do something like this. There are only a few days until the selection what should I do?" He pulled his hair and spoke in despair.

Sam calmed him down and asked.

"How many days till the test exactly?"

"Five days."

"That would be enough. Don't worry about that. I said she will stay here and she will stay here. Help me send a message to the professor. Tell him, that I am testing my new projects and see if he wants to send someone to the demonstration. Tell him to send a person proficient in water elemental usage."

"Where do they need to come?"

"Just ask them to come here. But tell him to prepare for some journey and three days. It would be better if he sends them by evening we can move."

"Do you want me to come with you?"

"No, I want you to do something else for me. Something you are proficient in, the administrative work."

With that Sam discussed a lot of things with him before leaving for his own residence. He asked the trio to prepare for the journey and waited for the professor to send someone and to his relief professor is more efficient than he thought.

He sent a person within an hour and that person is actually part of the One-star military unit. He is the leader that led the charge in the arena against the trio.

They didn't bother with any false courtesies and started their journey.

"Where are we going?"

"To the sea."

The unit leader was surprised.

"Why?"

"We need water to demonstrate this and I heard there is a sea hunting area for others which is not held by the sirens and the Emerald tortoise are available there.

I want to taste it."

"Emerald tortoise? Do you know how difficult it is to catch them? They are not like any other tortoise. They are fast, faster than fish and their defense is unfairly high. It is a pipe dream to catch it. Without a proper plan."

"Yeah, yeah. Just shut it already. You are only here for demonstration. Just come with us silently."

Philip said from the side and his tone is annoyingly sarcastic.

When that guy looked at him, Philip just gave him a side-eye and said.

"It is basic manners to say your name when you come to some other's place. But you don't even have that."

"I am Galvin. And you better watch your tongue."

"Or what? Are you going to watch it for me?"

"You.."

As Galvin was about to continue, Sam spoke.

"I don't have any patience for your bickering. Shall we continue our journey?"

Both of them finally stayed silent and the journey finally became silent and fast.

They traveled through the evening and they reached their destination by midnight.

They arrived at a town that is next to the sea. This seashore was evacuated by the Sirens. They don't have any say in this area and left this place as a gift for the elves when they had a deal about their cooperation.

They rested for the night until the dawn before going into the sea.
