Chapter 92: Chapter 84 The Gathering and Bread Ritual in Parviga City_1

After sorting out the spoils of war, Ivita, accompanied by the old witch and Lolita, left the Fire Sacrifice Square.

At the entrance of the Fire Sacrifice Square, the Hearthstone Grand Witch waved her hand, causing the broken stones to fly up and fall at the entrance, sealing it.

She also scattered some seeds of the magic plant, the Carnivorous Flower, among these broken stones.

As soon as someone digs up these broken stones, the remaining magic power of the Hearthstone Witch in this place will enter the Carnivorous Flower seeds, giving birth to Carnivorous Flowers that will devour anyone coming close to the entrance.

Although Ivita believes that ordinary people would be of no use entering the Fire Sacrifice Square, as they can’t see the content of the murals on the dome.

However, after all, it’s the entrance to the Fire Sacrifice Square, it’s better to take some protective measures.

Ivita borrowed three horses from Lolita’s home, and took her to the city of Parviga.

Mainly because Lolita, although a mere village woman, knew too much, leaving her unattended, the information she knew will eventually become her death sentence.

And the reason Lolita didn’t refuse is very simple.

It’s because of the things she did, if they were found out by The Church and the local lord, she would certainly die.

But as the new lord of Baron Moro’s territory, Ivita could take in a fleeing citizen and pardon her death sentence.

Subsequently, after two days, they arrived in Parviga, a city with a population of at least fifty thousand.

During these two days, Ivita’s Fire Bird Magic didn’t really progress, but at least she could control it so that it wouldn’t be so easy to release.

As for another Throwing Magic given by the Old Witch, Ivita was fundamentally clueless, completely mystified.

However, Ivita did not mind, she could learn magic slowly, as they were already in front of the largest city nearby - Parviga.

It was a great city, in terms of size, it was the largest city Ivita had seen since she came into this world.

The buildings of the city spread on both sides of the river, with rows of stone buildings everywhere.

The walls surrounding the city were not low wooden fences, but solid stone walls, with an average height of around fifteen to twenty meters.

There were at least thirty towers on the city walls and trebuchets, modified and very suitable for city defense, stationed on the walls.

City guards wearing leather armor patrolled the city walls majestically, their numbers reaching up to a thousand.

And many of them were professional warriors.

Unfortunately, the city didn’t have a tradition of knights, Ivita didn’t see any knights on the walls, but perhaps there were other professionals inside Parviga.

At the gates of Parviga, Ivita marveled, "The defense of this city is the best I’ve ever seen."

"Even the Sons of Forest would have a hard time conquering such a city."

The old witch laughed. "My lord, Parviga is one of the top seven cities in Ambros."

"It is one of the main bases of the City Order."

"Didn’t I tell you that Viscount Ambros’s Independent Country is the main base of the Hunters’ profession? That’s why city capitalists can confront the knights. They must have hired quite a few Hunters. I guess, the Sons of Forest wouldn’t dare to attack such a city in which the population is over fifty thousand and there are a great number of mercenaries."

"The most confusing thing about a city is its population."

The Hearthstone Grand Witch said, "The City Hall of Parviga announced that the population is over fifty thousand, but these are permanent residents."

"But how many people are coming and going in this city, doing business and looking for opportunities to get rich."

"My lord, I estimate, the population of this city should be between a hundred thousand and a hundred and fifty thousand."

"Only a city of this size could take on our cast iron business."

Ivita nodded, Parviga is the nearby market center, trade center, where the population would fluctuate according to the trade season.

As she entered the city gate, Ivita tucked her right hand into the ordinary cloth sleeve.

Because her right hand was full of jewelry, in this troubled autumn, her noble identity might provoke some negative effects in the market city.

On the contrary, the conference ring on her left hand and the iron sword necklace belonging to Weimar around her neck seem to be pretty ordinary accessories, and they wouldn’t attract the guards’ attention.

They rode in the city pretty quickly.

However, the guards at the entrance warned them that they could not gallop within the city, at most they were allowed slow riding.

If they did not respect the rules of Parviga, they would be fined, even banned from entering Parviga.

They rode their three old horses through the streets and markets and stopped at the entrance of a circus.

A clown at the circus stood on a wheel, twisted his hip, with a little red ball on his nose ready to fall at any moment, causing the children gathered around him to burst into laughter.

This kind of clown was purposely chosen by the circus to attract and retain the spectators by performing some simple acrobatics for free outside the circus venue.

Upon seeing the three guests on horseback, the clown immediately put forth more effort in his performance, and his eyes constantly darted towards Ivita and her companions.

Being able to ride horses indicated good purchasing power.

Such people were exactly the ones he had to strive to appeal to.

But to the clown’s dismay, Ivita did not even glance at him.

The clown, who was standing on a wheel making funny faces, deflated a bit. It seemed like Ivita is a serious person, probably not fond of such acrobatics.

Atop her horse, Ivita instructed the Old Witch, "Find Black Wolf and Knight Griffin for me, I presume they have already completed their dealings with the blacksmith guild in the city and started preparing for the return journey. They must be waiting somewhere in the city for us to join them."

"I’ll wait for them at the market entrance."

Ivita alighted from her horse and said, "You tell them to bring over the money as soon as possible, I need to buy some things in the Parviga market."

"For instance, mirrors for researching spirit mirror divination."

"Your command is law." The Old Witch bowed to Ivita from horseback, then rode off slowly into the distance.

Meanwhile, Ivita and Lolita dismounted and found a free public stable offered for merchants. They tethered their horses there, by the market entrance.

The entrance was teeming with human traffic whatever identities they had.

There were many merchants selling various goods, adventurers, and second-hand peddlers who came specifically to procure supplies in order to resell them in other places.

To avoid unnecessary troubles, Ivita kept her right hand hidden in her grey cloth sleeve, not letting the passersby discover her jewelry.

However, her own tall and upright figure, bright eyes, and peculiar aura were enough to draw the attention of others.

This noble aura was somewhat rare amidst this market filled with vulgar bourgeois disposition.

There seemed to be some commotion up front in the crowd.

Ivita looked up to see some finely dressed city noble ladies and their servants descending from a carriage, the servants’ hands filled with sacks of white bread.

These servants were calling out to the passersby, taking out white loafs from the sack and distributing them to everyone passing by the market entrance.

Even the wealthy women dressed in fluffy gowns occasionally took out a few pieces of bread and distributed them for free to some people.

What were they doing?
